Remnant Build
Last Time on Remnant Build
'I just don't want people to think I'm special.' Said Ruby.
"Now," Gray said over the fight scene as RabbitTank. "Let's begin the experiment." He then finished off the Smash after his rider kick.
"Come on. We've got some catching up to do." Said Gray with Yang and Ruby.
"Must find prisoner." Said a robot as a young Dragon Faunus hid behind a building and breathing heavily
Episode 2; Draco
Outside of Beacon Academy, Gray and his childhood friends, Ruby and Yang were sitting around the courtyard, talking about what's been going on. Gray was telling Ruby and Yang about his time at Beacon Academy since he's a two year student. He talked about how they're going to love it here and going to learn so much about not only to be a huntsmen/huntress, but also learn about the four kingdoms.
"Wow, that's amazing, Gray." Ruby said in excitement.
"Sounds like you've been enjoying yourself here, huh?" Asked Yang.
"Yep." Said Gray. "It's been fun." He then grabbed Ruby and started ruffling her hair. "And it'll be even more fun with you two here."
"*giggle* Stop, Gray." Ruby said with a smile.
Yang then asked, "So, what've you been doing after school?"
Gray paused for a second at Yang's question and let go of Ruby. He obviously didn't tell them that he was Kamen Rider Build who helped Ruby last night. So he said, "Oh, you know, just my research on Pandora. Nothing to exciting."
"Speaking of exciting," Said Ruby. "Do you know who that guy was? The one in the news?"
"Torchwick?" Asked Gray. "He's one of the biggest criminals in Remnant. He's been stealing dust for a couple of years and…"
"Not him. He's boring." Said Ruby. "I'm talking about that armored guy who helped me."
Gray then said while trying not to reveal his secret, "Oh, you mean Kamen Rider Build. Yeah, I've only seen him in the news."
Yang then asked in confusion, "Kamen Rider…Build?"
"So, Build is like a hero of the town or something?" Asked Ruby.
"Yeah," Said Gray. "I guess you can say he's the protector of Vale. He saves people who have been turned into these creatures called the Smash."
"You mean the spiky thing that attack me last night?" Asked Ruby.
Gray then nodded and said "I did my research and I found out that people that turn into Smash have to be those who haven't unlocked they're aura, which is the main thing ever huntsman and huntress need."
Ruby then got a little suspicious. She had no idea that Gray knew all of this. She then said, "Interesting."
"Yeah." Said Gray. He then looked at his scroll and noticed the time on it. "Oh, man. It's about time for me had back to my lab and meet up with my partner."
"Oh, yeah. I've been meaning to ask you." Said Yang. "What's your partner like?" Gray then remembered what happened a half hour before he got back to Beacon.
Flash Back
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU!" Yelled Nikki with an annoyed look on her face as Gray held the bottle filled with the brown aura he got from the Smash.
"I'm sorry." Said Gray. "I know you don't like doing this, but we need to purify every Smash essence in order for me to properly use the Full Bottles."
"BUT I JUST DID THAT THIS MORNING!" Nikki yelled as she fell on her knees and started wailing like a little girl who's not getting her way.
Back to the present
Gray then said, "Let's just say she doesn't get a lot of sleep."
"Oh." Yang and Ruby said together.
In a different location
The dragon Faunus prisoner was still hiding from the armored robots who're after him. He continued to run from the robots even though he was exhausted. He laid his back on a building and started breathing heavily from all of the running he had done. He then pulled out a blue bottle with a dragon face on it.
"Don't worry, Marie." Said the lizard boy. "We're almost home."
In the lab
Gray waited for a couple minutes for the machine to be done purifying the Full Bottle while also holding a bag of fast food. When the microwave part of the machine dinged and the chamber opened, Nikki popped out of the machine, all tired.
Nikki looked at the food and said in a tired voice, "What's that?"
"I felt bad for making you work again." Gray said as he handed Nikki the bag. "So, I got you something to eat."
Nikki then yawned and asked, "Is it from Dusty's Burgers?"
Gray then said with a smile, "Yep and I got it just the way you like it. No mustard and extra pickles. Oh…" He then walked over to the counter, grabbed a cup and handed it to Nikki. "And a mint shake."
Nikki gave a small smile, but still pretty tired and said, "Thank you." As she walked over to the table and started drinking her milkshake, Gray walked over to the microwave part of the machine and opened it. He then pulled out the brown Full Bottle with a gorilla face on it.
"So, that Smash's aura created a gorilla." Gray said as he examined the bottle. "I bet this give me super strength." He then walked over to the computer to do a little more research, only to find that one of his programs on his computer started blinking. Curious, he clicked on it and saw something that made his eyes widen. "Oh no."
In the Academy
It was night time and all of the first year students were sleeping in the ballroom of the academy to get ready for the official initiation tomorrow. In the crowd of sleeping people, Yang was sound asleep, holding a body pillow. Ruby on the other hand, was still wide awake.
Ruby kept thinking about what Gray said about Kamen Rider Build and what he said about the Smash. On one hand, she knew that he was researching Pandora ever since his dad mysteriously died and left all of his research to him. But on the other hand, she knew that he was hiding something deeper than that.
After almost falling asleep, Ruby heard some creaking, so she raised her head up to see the black haired girl who she remembered reading outside the school was sneaking out of through the windows.
Ruby then moved over to her sister and started to shake her while whispering, "Yang. Yang, wake up." With no luck, the girl just sighed and decided to go after the black haired girl by herself.
In a different location
In the little town, there is a little park which was bathed in moonlight. Right in the middle of that park was a fountain on top of a stone platform. The black haired girl then hid behind a tree and looked around to see if the coast was clear.
She then heard, "What are you doing here?" This made the girl yelp and jump back. She then turned to see Ruby, in her pajamas, standing behind her.
"Wha…what are you doing here?" Asked the black haired girl.
Ruby then said, "I was about to asked you the same thing. Why are you in the park and in your pajamas no less?"
The black haired girl then said, "I'm trying to meet someone. Now can you…"
Ruby then asked, "Who is so important to you that it made you came all the way out here?"
The black haired girl just sighed and decided to come clean. She looked at Ruby and said, "My name is Blake Belladonna and I'm trying to find my friend, Draco."
"Draco?" Ruby asked in confusion.
"Yes." Said Blake. "He escaped from prison."
"Your friend is a…" Ruby almost yelled, but Blake shushed her, which made her start whispering. "Your friend is a criminal?"
Blake then said, "Not that kind of prison. A research subject. He was taken by bad people who do experiments on Faunus and I need to find him."
Ruby noticed something in the distant and asked, "Um…your friend wouldn't happen to have blue hair and lizard scales on his arm, would he?"
"How did you know that?" Blake asked, making Ruby point behind her. She then turned to see her friend, Draco being surrounded by robots. "Oh no." She then run at him, leaving Ruby by herself.
"Hey, we don't have our weapons!" Ruby yelled as she ran after her.
"Leave me alone!" Draco yelled as he back away from the robots. "I just want to go home!"
"You are a prisoner of Faust." One of the robots said. "You must come back to Faust."
"I said…" Draco said as he clenched the Dragon Full Bottle in his hand. "LEAVE ME ALONE!" He then punched one of the robots walking towards him with his fists engulfed in blue flames. He managed to shut it completely down and spark as it fell backwards. The dragon Faunus
"Draco!" Blake yelled, making the dragon Faunus look over to see her running at her.
"Blake?" Draco asked as the black haired girl stopped in front of him. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to get you out of here." Said Blake.
Ruby, who stopped behind Blake, asked, "Can someone explain to me what's going on?"
"Who the hell is that?" Asked Draco.
Blake then said, "Well, she kind of…"
"Freeze." One of the robots said as they pointed their laser guns at the three teenagers. "Due to both females being with the prisoner, you are all here by property of Faust. Come with us or die."
Ruby then said in offense. "Hey, we're not property." That earned her getting a gun pointed right at her head.
"Get away from her!" Yelled someone in the distance. The robots and the teenagers looked over to see Gray, with the Build Driver around his waist and holding two Full Bottles in his hands.
"Gray?" Ruby asked in confusion.
"You know who that is?" Asked Blake.
"Move along citizen." Said one of the Faust Robots. "Everything is taken care of."
"Bullshit." Gray said as he shook the two Full Bottles, one being the Rabbit Bottle and the other being a blue bottle with a rocket on it. He then place them into the driver.
"RABBIT! ROCKET!"
Gray then started turning crank on the driver, which created the sprues formed in front of him. The others just watched as they were witnessing Build debut for the first time.
"ARE YOU READY?"
Gray then made in X with his arms and yelled, "Henshin!" He then put his arms down and the two sprues came together to form the full Build suit. The new rocket side of the Build suit was a baby blue color, his left arm was a rocket, and he had a rocket blasting off as part of the visor.
Ruby, in absolute shock, yelled with her hands on her cheeks, "GRAY IS BUILD?!"
The robots, without asking question, immediately started shooting at Gray/Build as he ran at them with his Drill Crusher in his hand. He slashed at one of them, causing them to shut down and explode. He then turned to another one and got ready to punch, but he was a couple feet away from it. When he punch, the rocket arm flew off and hit the robot right in the chest, causing it to explode. As the Kamen Rider continued to fight the robots, Draco and Blake were staring in shock while Ruby was staring in excitement.
"Whoa." Draco said in shock.
Blake then said, "I've heard about Build on the news but I've never seen him in person before."
"GO, GRAY!" Ruby yelled in a hooray kind of voice. As Gray/Build pushed one of the robots back, he pulled out the Tank bottle and placed it into the Drill Crusher.
"READY, GO!"
Gray/Build then charged at the remaining two robots while the drill was spinning rapidly as the Rocket arm propelled him forward.
"VOLTEK BREAK!"
Gray/Build then slashed the two robots and then came to a complete stop as they created a small explosion behind him.
"WHOO HOO!" Yelled Ruby. "That was awesome!"
Gray/Build then turned his head and in his helmet, he had an angry look to him. He then got up, put his Drill Crusher away, and angrily said, "Ruby." He then walked up to her and started poking her forward, making her head tilt back and he did it multiple times as he was talking. "How many times do I have to tell you? Don't go outside past your bed time."
After he was done poking her, Ruby covered her forehead in pain while Blake and Draco stared in confusion. Ruby then said, "Hey, you not the boss of me. Why didn't you tell me you were Build?"
"That is not important right now." Said Build. "You came here in your pajamas without your weapon in the middle of the night. You could've been hurt."
"Not important?" Ruby asked in annoyance.
Blake then said, "Um, excuse me…"
Gray/Build then said, "Ma'am. I'll get you and your friend to safety, but right now, I've got my own friend issues to deal with."
"You're the one with the friend problem." Said Ruby. "How long were you Build and why are you Build? I want answers!"
"Ruby…" Said Gray/Build
Draco then moved over to Blake and whisper, "I think they're acting more like siblings than friends." The black haired girl just nodded in agreement.
"Help!" Yelled someone in the distance, which made everyone turn to see a man running at them in full speed. "Help! Someone is trying to kill me!"
"STEAM ATTACK! FULLBOTTLE!"
A stream of smoke covered the man and he started choking and screaming in pain. Ruby then said, "Oh, no. That's what happened to the shop keeper last night."
"Get behind me." Gray/Build said as he pulled the Tank Bottle and Hedgehog bottle. As he started shaking the bottles, Ruby. Blake, and Draco got a safe distance away from him. The smoke then cleared and the man was turned into a brand new Smash. A monster with a giant yellow cube as its head, and a blade for an arm.
"HARINEZUMI! TANK!"
Gray/Build then turned the crank on his belt.
"ARE YOU READY?"
"Build up!" Gray/Build said as he become the Hedgehog and Tank trail form. He then charged at the Smash and hit it a couple times with his hedgehog spike fist. He then also did a bunch of kicks, but nothing was working. The monster then used its blade arm to slash at him, forcing the Kamen Rider to jump back.
"Crap." Gray/Build said as he pulled the Rabbit bottle back out and was about to shake, but it was shot out of his hand and made the Kamen Rider hold his hand in pain.
"Nice try." Said a devilish robotic voice, making him and the others look to see a man who looked like Night Rogue, except his suit was all red, instead of red and green wires, it was blue and white wires, and the chest plate and visor was in the shape of a king cobra. He held his TranSteam Gun, but it also had some extensions to it, turning it into a rifle.
"Who's that?" Ruby asked in confusion.
Draco stared in fear and then fell backwards, making Blake look over in concern. She then said as she bent down, "Draco. What's wrong?"
Gray/Build then said as he clenched his fist and the hedgehog fist shook a little bit, "Blood Stalk."
"Aw, that's how you great an old friend?" Blood Stalk asked in a sarcastically sad tone of voice. Gray/Build just charged at him ready to bunch him, but the Smash stopped him by hitting him in the gut with a slash of its blade arm, which sent him flying and knocked him out of his transformation.
"Gray!" Ruby yelled, concerned for her friend getting hurt.
Gray was in pain, but it wasn't enough to keep him down, so he manage to get back on his feet. He then asked, "Why are you here, Blood Stalk?"
"Simple." Blood Stalk said as he pointed at Draco. "I'm here to retrieve him." Blake quickly stood in front of her friend when he said that.
Gray then looked back at the others standing behind him and he saw Draco in fear, Blake wanting to protecting her friend, and Ruby looking at him with a look at told him don't let him. Gray felt like he had no choice but to stop Blood Stalk from taking Draco because it was his duty as a Kamen Rider to protect people who can't protect themselves.
"Look, Blood Stalk…" Gray said as he turned to face the enemies. "If you want this guy, you'll have to get by me."
Ruby smiled with glee and said, "Go get 'em, Gray!" Blake then breathed a sigh of relief and Draco just stared at him all confused.
Gray then pulled out the Gorilla Bottle that was just created and a light blue bottle with a sparking diamond on it. "Now…let's begin the experiment." He then rapidly shook the bottles, twist the caps, and placed each one in the Build Driver.
"GORILLA! DIAMOND! BEST MATCH!"
"That's a best match?!" Gray asked with his eyes widened. He then broke into a huge smile. "ALRIGHT!" He then started turning the crank rapidly, creating two sprues. The front one created the Gorilla part of the suit with a giant fist and a gorilla as part of the visor. The back one created the Diamond part of the suit with a diamond shoulder pad, diamonds going down the arm, and a diamond as part of the visor. The scientist then made an X in the air and slowly brought it down to his chest.
"ARE YOU READY?"
"Henshin!" Gray yelled as he quickly put down his arms as the sprues slammed into each other, creating the full suit.
"KAGAYAKI NO DESTROYER! GORILLAMOND! YEAHHH!"
As Gray/Build stood in his new GorillaMond form, the moonlight made the diamonds on the suit sparkle, which made everyone look in amazement. Gray then said, "My plans are set in motion..." He then moved his finger across the diamond visor and flicked the tip of it. "Time for victory!"
Blood Stalk then said, "Aagh. Booooorrring!" He then moved his hand forward, signaling the Smash to deal with Build. As the smash charged at the Kamen Rider and swung its sword arm at him and hit the diamond arm. But just like real life diamonds, Build was durable and tough. The rider then punched the Smash with his Gorilla fist and it did a lot of damage with it. He continued punching the Smash, who was still trying to attack him back.
As Ruby and Blake stared in amazement, Draco was staring in utter shock and said, "What are you?" The Smash swung its blade arm at Gray/Build and the blade snapped clean of due to the diamond part of his suit and the rider punched it again sending it back.
"Let's finish this." Gray/Build said as he used his giant fist to turn the crank on the driver once again. When he finished he bent down on one knee and place his diamond hand on the ground.
"READY, GO!"
Gray/Build manage to create border of diamond shoot out of the ground and he stood up and immediately punched it with his gorilla fist.
"VOLTEK FINISH! YEAH!"
After punching the diamond, it shattered into a million pieces and flew at the Smash, causing a great deal of damage and causing a small explosion. He then pulled out an empty bottle and then pointed it at the Smash once the smoke clear. Its body turned back into the man as yellow aura began to fill up the bottle.
After closing the bottle, Gray/Build turned to Ruby, Blake, and Draco as they stared at him and said, "Whelp, you guys saw too much. Looks like I have no choice…" He then pointed at them. "…But to make you my assistants!"
"Assistants?!" Ruby, Blake, and Draco yelled in unison and confusion.
Next time on Remnant Build
"I just want to go home!" Yelled Draco.
"Gray is a really nice person." Nikki said to Blake in the lab. "You'll see."
"I won't let you interrupt my friend's initiation!" Yelled Gray over a fight scene in his RabbitTank Form.
"LIONCLEANER!"
Episode 3; Initiation Day
Yeah, when I said I was changing the RWBY story a bit, that wasn't a joke.
Also, if you've watched Kamen Rider Build, I think it's pretty obvious who Draco is going to be.

I do not own Kamen Rider Build or RWBY. RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth and Kamen Rider Build belongs to Toei. The only thing I own in this story are OCs.
