Gold and Silver
Scathing eyes ask that we be symmetrical, one sided and easily processed. Yet every misshapen spark's unseen beauty is greater than its would be judgement.
Music: I Burn by Casey Lee Williams
It was quiet at the city of Vale. For obvious reasons as it was the nighttime. Many of Vale's citizens had returned home to take their rest. Thus, only a small number of people were present in the streets. The only places that were lit up at this hour were the convenience stores, fast food joints and the questionably popular nightclubs.
Interestingly enough, one club was the focus of this story.
Red like roses fills my dreams and brings me to the place you rest.
White is cold and always yearning, burdened by a royal test.
Black the beast descends from shadows.
Yellow beauty burns gold.
Booming music, flashing lights and shady business deals was what can be described about it. And yet, young men and women were charmed by it. Here, they could do stuff they couldn't when they were in public.
Near the doors, the two bouncers were having some random guy talk.
Bouncer #1 finished, "And that's how I managed to get the elbow grease and headlight fluid."
Bouncer #2's mouth was gaped open, "You're kidding me."
"Nope, not kidding at all."
"That has got to be the strangest, yet most believable story I ever-"
Knock! Knock!
Their conversation was interrupted when they heard a knock on the doors. They opened it a little to have a look and saw who it was. Bouncer #2 had a curious look while Bouncer #1 gasped in fright.
"Who the hell are yo-" Before Bouncer #2 could finish, Bouncer #1 grabbed his mouth all of a sudden.
Bouncer #1 then whispered to his friend, "Do you want your face planted into those doors? Just open it."
Bouncer #2 was confused but he did as he was told. They opened the doors allowing a young woman to enter.
Although a teen, she was downright gorgeous with a well-endowed body. Her golden hair was wild and long that reached past her waist.
She wore a tan vest with gold piping over a yellow, low-cut crop top with a black crest that resembled a burning heart. The vest has puffy cap sleeves with black cuffs.
She had a brown belt with a buckle, a pouch, and a small banner that showed the same burning heart crest. She wore black shorts under her belt, which resembled a pleated skirt in the back. Over the short shorts but under the belt was a white, asymmetrical back skirt.
Around her neck was an orange infinity scarf. She wore brown, knee-high platform boots with orange socks of different lengths. Her left leg had a gray, bandana wrapped around the top of her boot. She wore fingerless black gloves underneath her yellow mechanical gauntlets.
The moment she entered, everyone started to get tensed. Who could blame them? The first time she entered this club...well…things went a little...messy.
The young blonde walked up to the bar counter where the owner of this wholesome little club was.
Upon seeing her, the owner sighed in annoyance, "Blondie, back again."
"What?" Blondie chuckled, "No kisses for me?"
"Don't bring that up," The owner groaned much to Blondie's amusement.
"Oh come on, lighten up a bit."
"How can I lighten up when every time you show up, my club is in shambles thanks to you?" He pointed out, "Answer me that."
Blondie held her hands in defense, "Okay, so the last few visits were not that great."
"That's an understatement."
"But this time, it'll be brief AND I'll guarantee there won't be any damages," Blondie said assuringly. "If you give me some information."
The owner gave a big sigh. But he agreed, "What is it this time?"
Blondie took out her phone and showed him a picture of a young man, "Have you seen him?"
The owner shifted his eyes between the photo and Blondie. Judging by her face, this boy was really important to her. The owner smiled, "Never seen him before. Why, is he your boyfriend?"
The staff laughed at their employer's joke while Blondie rolled her eyes.
"No," Blondie replied, "He's my son."
"Oh your son." The owner chuckled for a while before his face fell at the same time the music stopped and he and his staff stared at the teen in shock, "Wait, what!?"
CRASH!
Suddenly a giant metal watermelon crashed through the doors. The owner's men panicked and scattered as the giant sphere rolled into the center of the dance floor where the patrons also fled from its path. Once it came to a stop, a head popped out from the top.
"Maybe I took a wrong turn," remarked the man in the strange masked helmet. It was blue with a silver mouthplate, a red visor and a sword-shaped head crest. Looking around, he noticed the blonde teen, "Hi Yang!"
"Hey, I was just looking for you," Yang called out to Gaim.
"Um...I don't think the people here look happy."
"Do you always have to wreck my club whenever you come here?" Junior asked as Gaim climbed out of the Suika Arms and then slid down its surface to land on the floor.
"Hey, this time it wasn't my fault," Yang defended.
Then footsteps were heard and everyone turned attention to the new arrivals. A few of them wore white colored business suits and their hairs were combed gently. The remainder of the group had clothing comprised of black and had skeleton-like masks.
"Who are these guys?" Yang asked.
Gaim answered, "Oh, just a bunch of psychopaths that are plotting to take over the Multiverse."
"Hmmm, they seem nice," Yang remarked.
The floor started rumbling. Then, Atlesian Paladin-290 battlesuits suddenly burst through the floor and landed in front of Gaim and Yang. Seeing them, the blonde teen turned to the owner, glaring angrily at him.
"Junior!" Yang snapped.
"I was holding them for a friend," Junior shrugged. Gaim looked up at the Atlesian Paladins and performed a backflip before landing back in the Suika Arms.
"Yang, get behind me!" shouted Gaim as the mechs aimed and fired their rockets at the immobile metal watermelon. Yang ducked behind it as Gaim ducked his head inside. The rockets exploded against the Suika Arms Armor Part.
The smoke settled and the Suika Arms wasn't just fine, but had reconfigured into its humanoid Yoroi Mode. It had its right palm pointed at the battlesuit and in its left hand was the Suika Sojinto.
Gaim grinned under the Suika Head helmet, "My turn." With a roar, he charged at one of the Atlesian Paladins and struck it with a powerful punch. The battlesuit staggered. He swung the Suika Sojinto but it blocked the mech's weapon with its left arm. As it prepared to shoot Gaim in the face, Yang jumped onto the Suika Arms' shoulder and then bounced off to catch some air. She drew her right arm back, curled her hand into a fist, and smashed it straight down into the head of the Atlesian Paladin. She continued to fire and blast it before it threw her off and she landed on the dance floor.
"Let's party!" Yang declared.
"Yeah, this is our stage now!" Gaim agreed. He aimed his fingers at the Atlesian Paladins and activated the Seed Vulcans. While Gaim took on the bots, Yang faced the white suited men and their cronies.
Yang grinned as she cracked her knuckles, "Okay, so who's first?"
The Masquerade Dopants charged at her first. Yang followed suit. The blonde teen was a beast in combat.
Mirror, tell me something, tell me who's the loneliest of all?
She punched one of the Masquerade Dopants in the face followed by kicking another at the side.
Yang flipped back from a strike. Without turning around, she grabbed two Masquerade Dopants that were about to attack her from behind and threw them at their compatriots.
She ran to a mook, landed her feet on his body, jumped up and knocked him out and another at the same time.
Fear of what's inside of me, tell me can a heart be turned to stone?
Dodging a swipe, Yang retaliated with a jab, cross and hook. Then, Yang elbowed a Masquerade Dopant and landed a kick on his shoulder.
A Masquerade Dopant jumped at Yang but she grabbed him on time, spin him around a little bit before throwing him and sent him flying towards the DJ Booth. The DJ got out on time.
One Masquerade Dopant, even though most or all of his bones were fractured, managed to have the strength to get up and stealthy approached Yang from behind. Would have worked until Yang without turning back casually did a backhand on his face and he passed out once more.
The people in white suits frowned upon seeing this. With their henchmen defeated, they decided to step in and deal with this little problem.
A few of them took out some items out of their pockets, either resembling USB Drives, Coins or Switches. They injected the devices into their bodies or switched it on causing them to undergo their monstrous transformations.
The white suited man and woman transformed into a reptilian humanoid and a yellow person while another had a fat cat monstrosity emerged from his body.
With that, the kaijin growled at Yang but Yang wasn't scared when she saw them. She didn't flinched. To her, they are just more stuff to smash. So, she pulled out more ammo and loaded them into her Ember Celica. She was ready for the next round.

Meanwhile, the Atlesian Paladins had started firing a dozen more rockets. Gaim controlled the Suika Yoroi to lift its arms in front which shielded him from the attacks. Gaim took a step back. Gaim had to admit, the pilots were damn impressive. So, it's time to change that.
Gaim jumped out of the top of the Suika Arms and activated his next transformation.
"KACHIDOKI ARMS! IZA SHUTSUJIN! EI, EI, OH!"
Born with no life, into subjugation, treated like a worthless animal.
Donning his Kachidoki Arms, Gaim took the brunt of the Paladins' attacks. Firing their bullets and rockets, none of them did any damage on Gaim's armor. As they continued barraging him, Gaim took out his Hinawa Daidai DJ Ju, aka the DJ Gun.
Stripped of all rights, just a lesser being, crushed by cruel ruthless Human rule.
He scratched the DJ Table which was followed by the sound of war horns. Setting the DJ Pitch to High and scratched the table again, Gaim took aim and pressed the trigger.
When it started, all we wanted was a chance to live our lives, now in darkness.
The DJ Gun fired and showered the mechs in red hot bullets. Sparks were flying everywhere from the Atlesian Paladins that were being totally torn to shreds. The sound that the bullets made when clashed against the metal was like the sound of firecrackers on Chinese New Year.
Gaim stopped firing and looked at his work. Many of his metallic foes had so many holes on them and black smoke emitted from them. Only a few were left. The Paladins that were still standing ran up to Gaim. One reared its robotic fist and struck.
Taking everything we want and we will rise, we'll rise, we'll rise.
Shockingly, Gaim grabbed the fist on time. He then karate chopped the arm with so much force that the mechanical arm was severed from the robot.
Gaim then removed his Kachidoki Bata from his back and began mopping the floor with the Paladins.

From shadows, we'll descend upon the world, take back what you stole.
The Luna Dopant stretched her limbs at Yang. Yang avoided the hits. The Chameleon Zodiart and the Cat Yummy rushed in. Yang ducked under the Chameleon Zodiart's swipe and step aside to avoid the Cat Yummy's attack as well.
The Chameleon Zodiart blocked a kick from Yang but was sent reeling by a fire blast. Yang punched multiple times at the Cat Yummy but thanks to its durability, it could take them.
Yang jumped back, avoiding another of the Luna Dopant's lashes. The Cat Yummy retaliated with a swipe but Yang caught it and flipped it.
From shadows, we'll reclaim our destiny, set our future free.
While Yang was currently occupied, the Chameleon Zodiart turned invisible. Yang got attacked from the side by the invisible Zodiart who aimed at the arms and stomach. With Yang distracted, the Luna Dopant managed to struck her and she was knocked back.
And we'll rise, and we'll rise.
The Chameleon Zodiart revealed himself and unleashed several kicks which Yang blocked before she pushed him back so that she could kick the Luna Dopant's arm away but only to get hit by the other arm.
The blonde teen continued to defend herself when all of a sudden, the Cat Yummy grabbed her from behind. With Yang unable to move, the Luna Dopant fired her stretchy arms again.
At the last second, Yang fired her gauntlets at the ground that sent her along with her captor up, narrowly avoiding the attack. Yang quickly freed herself and fired the Cat Yummy. The Chameleon Zodiart was unfortunate as the Cat Yummy crashed onto him.
Evading the Luna Dopant's lashes a few more times, Yang leapt forward and at mid air, bombarded the kaijin with fire bolts. Pushing the Cat Yummy off him, the Chameleon Zodiart was caught by surprise when Yang delivered a knee attack.
Yang punched him in the chest and finally delivered an explosive uppercut that sent the Chameleon Zodiart crashing into the wall and exploded.
She then went after the Cat Yummy. Yang punched the kaijin so many times at a ridiculous fast pace that its belly vibrated. With one last punch, the Cat Yummy shook violently before bursting into flames, releasing masses of coins that fell like rain.
Above the darkness and the shame, above the torture and the pain.
Yang was content before the Luna Dopant interrupted it with her long arms. Yang was getting annoyed with the Dopant.
Above the ridicule and hate, above the binding of our fate.
At a split second, Yang grabbed one of Luna Dopant's arms much to the latter's shock. Yang grinned as she hold tight on the appendage and heave hoed. In a flash, the Luna Dopant was pulled straight towards Yang who reared her other fist and put explosive red Dust into where the mouth used to be.
That force sent the Luna Dopant flying but it didn't stop there. Still holding onto the Luna Dopant's arm, Yang pulled her back and received another fist to the face. She repeated this a dozen times until she finally decided to let go and did one more punch, sending the Luna Dopant crashing against the hard floor.
The Luna Dopant was dazed with stars circling above her head. Yang was going to finish her off until a huge fireball came out of nowhere and did the job for her. The Luna Dopant was consumed in a huge explosion and she reverted back to her now unconscious human form shortly after.
Yang turned to the source of the shot. It was Gaim holding his DJ Gun that had smoke coming out of the barrel. Yang childishly complained, "Nagata, I was going to finish her."
"Sorry," Gaim apologized.
The duo turned to what's left of the group. Only a few remained with almost all terrified. Well, it's understandable when after seeing both their henchmen and super monsters being taken down by a couple of meddling kids. The only one who still at least has composure was a man in front, who wore glasses. From the look on his face, he was mad. The man in white took off his glasses, dropped them to the floor and crushed them under his feet. Then, his eyes began to glow. As it did, he began to transform into a new horrific appearance. A mixture of white and purple with a gem in the middle of his chest.
Rocks flew out of the Carbuncle Phantom's body, destroying everything in sight. Gaim and Yang jumped back to avoid the explosive rocks but while they were distracted, the Carbuncle Phantom leapt towards them.
He transformed his left hand into a blade and struck Gaim first before hitting Yang. Yang quickly recovered and started assaulting the Phantom.
The Carbuncle Phantom evaded them with ease. He sent Yang flying towards a pillar and then instantly blocked a strike from Gaim's Kachidoki Bata. The Carbuncle Phantom pushed Gaim back and landed a hit causing the Armored Rider to skid back.
Gaim pressed on regardless. The Carbuncle Phantom fired his explosive rocks at Gaim who defended himself with his sashimono poles. He managed to handle a bunch but many got through and hit him. Had enough with this, Gaim swung his flags up and the rocks stopped dead in their tracks. Another swing, the rocks flew straight back to the Carbuncle Phantom and exploded upon contact.
But it wasn't over. The Carbuncle Phantom exited out of the smoke and charged at Gaim. He smacked away the Kachidoki Bata from Gaim's hands. Gaim quickly draw out his Musou Saber to block a strike.
As this happened, Yang having recovered, fired at the Carbuncle Phantom who pulled back from Gaim to avoid the shots.
After Yang stopped firing, the Carbuncle Phantom fired his rocks again.
"Is he gonna keep spamming?" Yang asked, annoyed.
"It's kinda his forte," Gaim replied as he took out his DJ Gun. Turning the DJ Pitch to Low and scratch the disk, Gaim fired a ball of energy and countered the explosive rocks. Few shots later, one ball hit the Carbuncle Phantom in the chest.
"Okay, that'll give me time to do this," Gaim quickly switched Lockseeds, going for the one decorated with a red masked face.
"SOIYA!"
The zipper portal opened, dropping the Wizard Arms onto Gaim, causing his Kachidoki Arms to vanish. After the armor was formed, Gaim was now donning his Wizard Arms.
"WIZARD ARMS! SHABADOOBIE SHOWTIME!"
"Alright!" Gaim declared as he brandished his WizardSwordGun, "It's...SHOWTIME!" He parried the Carbuncle Phantom's blade and pushed down so their weapons were pointed down. This gave Yang the opening she needed as she smashed her fist into the Carbuncle Phantom's face from the side, sending him flying to the wall.
"So Nagata, what kind of tricks does it have?" Yang asked.
"I'll show you," said Gaim as the Carbuncle Phantom recovered and fired explosive magical stones at them.
Come at me, and you'll see, I'm more than meets the eye.
"Defend, Please!" Gaim immediately conjured up a magical shield to block the projectiles.
"Big, Please!" A magic seal appeared. Gaim drove his hand into it and the arm was inexplicably huge when it exited out from the other side much to the Carbuncle Phantom's surprise who then got slapped by the arm.
You think that, you'll break me, you're gonna find in time.
Yang smiled, clearly impressed, "Wow, giant body parts, ARM impressed."
Hearing this, Gaim turned to Yang, raising an eyebrow, "Seriously?"
You're standing too close to a flame that's burning, hotter than the sun in the middle of July.
Sadly, the question have to wait as the Carbuncle Phantom returned to fight. Yang caught the blade on time and punched him.
Gaim head in and clashed with the Phantom. The Carbuncle Phantom pushed him away allowing Yang to deliver a few swift kicks.
"Copy, Please!" Activating another power, three Gaims appeared beside him. Turning their weapons into Gun Mode, the four Gaims fired at the Carbuncle Phantom.
Sending out your army, but you still can't win; listen up, silly boy, 'cuz I'm gonna tell you why...
"Hah!" Yang performed jabs, firing several Dust-infused shots at the Phantom. Then together, Gaim and Yang rushed at their enemy. Gaim slashed with his sword as Yang pounded with her fists. The Carbuncle Phantom swiped at Yang but she jumped to avoid the blade.
"Heh, you have to do better than..." Yang went silent as she saw a strand of her golden hair fall down in front of her face and land on the floor.
"Uh-oh," Gaim gulped as he knew that look.
"You," the Carbuncle Phantom hissed, "You have made a GRAVE MISTAKE crossing us! You, your family and anyone you care about will forever be hunted by us and never have moments of peace even in death!"
Even with that threat, Gaim was not fazed and calmly replied, "Well, you made a mistake as well."
"And what's that?"
"You just pissed off my aunt," Gaim stated, gesturing with his head.
Why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why! Why!
Yang had her teeth gritted, her fists clenched, her shoulders trembling. Her hair rose into the air as a blazing aura radiated from her body. She looked up and her eyes turned blood red as she glared at the Carbuncle Phantom with absolute rage.
"YOU MONSTER!" she roared.
I burn! Can't hold me now, you got nothing that can stop me.
Gaim comically stepped aside as Yang blazed past him and attacked the Carbuncle Phantom. If the Phantom had any eyes, they would be bulging wide as Yang smashed her fist straight at him. Oh, she didn't stop there. She continued to pummel him with explosive punches, and when she missed, she hit the floor and caused a massive shockwave.
"I guess it's time for the finale!" Gaim declared as he hit the Cutting Blade to activate his finisher.
"SOIYA! WIZARD SQUASH! CHOINE, SAIKO!"
I burn! Swing all you want.
Gaim's feet were covered in fire. He then did a somersault and jumped into the air. At the same time after causing the Carbuncle Phantom to leave a mark on the floor, Yang darted and readied her flame covered fist. The two converged on the Carbuncle Phantom and delivered a punch-kick combined attack.
Like a fever I will take you down.

The fireworks could be seen from outside. Explosions were popping up at various parts of the club. Explosions were so freaking loud that it caused a little tremor. The trash cans, lamp posts, cars and whatever public property outside jumped a bit from that. After a couple of seconds, the explosion stopped and silence returned.
After a brief while, the doors opened and Yang and Nagata exited out of the club.
"So, how was that?" Yang asked, hands behind her head in a relaxed manner.
"Well, you promised to show me a night to remember and you sure delivered," Nagata smiled.
RING! RING!
Yang's Scroll rang. She took it out and saw the caller ID. She answered and Ruby's face appeared on the screen. "Hey Ruby?"
"Hi Yang, have you found Nagata?"
"Yeah, he's right with me."
"Hi Ruby!" Nagata greeted as he waved at Ruby on the Scroll.
"Well, get back here. The party's about to start."
"Easy there, we're going." Yang offered, "Come on, Nagata. Hop on to my Bumblebee."
"I'll take my own ride if you don't mind," Nagata smiled as he pulled out his Sakura Hurricane Lockseed. He tossed it up as it grew and unfolded into his bike which landed next to him. "Race ya?"
"Oh, it's on!" They fist-bumped before climbing on to their rides and then racing into the night.
Sangokuden x RWBY: HUNT OF THE ARMORED WAR GODS
COMING SOON
GKoh: Okay, so a few of you guys might be confused after reading this. You know, regarding Yang saying Nagata is her son. Okay, let me explain. Before that, I need to warn you that there are spoilers. So please check Kamen Rider Chrome's page and read Destiny of the Armored War Gods. If nothing else, let's continue.
At the second half of Destiny of the Armored War Gods, Nagata (Armored War God Gaim) and the other Armored War Gods were invited to the first ever Imperial Armored War God Tournament. However unbeknownst to them, the tournament was actually a trap set up by the RinJyuKen which succeeded in Chapter 12 when Ukitsu, Armored War Devil Duke cast a spell that sent the Armored War Gods back to their world.
In Chapter 13, many things were revealed about the boys' world.
This 'Real World' is actually an alternate universe.
Residing in this alternate Real World are alternate versions of anime characters.
All the Armored War Gods are children of these alternate anime characters. For example, Armored War God Bravo, Marcus is the son of an alternate Ichika Orimura and an alternate Charlotte Dunois.
It didn't took long for our heroes to miss the people of the Three Kingdoms and after many helpful advices by their parents, friends or acquaintances, the Armored War Gods resolved to return to Ancient China which they did in Chapter 14. Bless you Chosen even if you are creepy.
If you readers had read to the very end of Chapter 14, there was another twist. Prior to going to the museum, Nagata left a letter to his parents with his mother being an alternate Yang Xiao Long. On that letter, it was revealed that Nagata was actually adopted. His real parents had perished in some kind of accident and his uncle and aunt took him in and raised him as their own. The truth is…Nagata's true mother is an alternate Ruby Rose and it's not a typo if you read the movie trailer in Chapter 16 at the end of S4, Alliance of the Armored War Gods.
Hunt of the Armored War Gods is a crossover with Sangokuden and RWBY and it is the first ever AWG movie I had thought of thanks to the inspiration of chapter 14 in S3 which foreshadow the event of this movie. That means Nagata will meet the RWBY version of his mother. What will happen? That's for you to find out on the next chapter.
Okay, much was explained but you're still wondering why Yang called Nagata her son. Simple...she's trolling. In all of her previous visits to the club, she had mentioned nothing about her family for obvious reasons until now. Basically she just wanted to see Junior and everyone's reaction.
Anyway, thanks for reading.
