Shadows of Remnant

by Rio Skyron

After the Calamity after the Black Winter War, they thought Caitiff was dead, but its along with Valtrith's desire to live, allowed them to merge, and they escaped through a portal which led to Remnant. Bykir pursues him with Amadeus on his tail. What does Remnant have in store for our hero and his... acquaintance?

2. Military Escort

Well how about that Calamity Saga epilogue, and the fact that the Gathering Shadow Saga is now called the Calamity Saga. Oh fun fact for those who aren't aware, that scene with the Falconreach citizens arguing over whether or not Jaania and her Rose should stay and some who were shouting there hatred of the rose, Tomix made that scene based off of the playerbase's general opinion of the Rose which he read in the forums. Speaking of which on the Forums I am Rio3678. Those of you who might know me that I am one of the biggest defenders of Jaania and her faction of the Rose. I always said she was being overvillified, and that she did not deserve the amount of hate she was getting. However I do agree that she needed that to happen to her. For if that didn't happen to her, I don't think she would ever realize the gravity of her actions. Someone even threw a friggin stone at her. Now here's what I got from that. Until that moment, she has only dealt with either the people of Swordhaven who agreed with her views, or rebel leaders, like us and Kara. She has never dealt with the citizens of Falconreach. And since Falconreach is one of the few places that still accepts magic and is free from Rose control, it became a safehaven for magic users, and most of the current population of Falconreach are magical refugees who are trying to escape the Rose's influence. So yeah until this moment Jaania never really realized the gravity of her actions.

Any way I look forward to the Hero's Heart Day quests of this year, as of writing this part they are not out yet.

Also that moment with Serenity's ghost made me sad.

Opening: Battle Against a True Hero – Radix lyrics

Every Hero has to make a serious choice

Ruby is shown fighting Beowolves

Fight with honor make your rival fear your voice

Yang is shown punching Junior out a window.

Die in battle to perpetuate your name

Weiss is shown battling a knight automaton with a bleeding scar down her left eye.

Or run from danger just to live another day

Blake is shown leaving the White Fang and Adam

Real heroes never fear the pain or death

Nora is shown smashing a beowolf

Every soldier fights until their final breath

Ren is shown fighting another one

Dedicating all their lives to just one cause

Jaune is seen looking at his sword

Serve the kingdom and apply the rules and laws

Pyrrha is seen defeating an opponent in a tournament

Years of training giving all your blood and sweat

Bykir is seen with Bolt in his child form fighting off a bunch of Grimm

Getting to the point where nothing means a threat

Bykir pulls out his Dragon Amulet and transforms Bolt into his adult form who then proceeds to blow up a horde of Grimm

Every battle will be just another day

Amadeus is seen fighting off a bunch of Grimm

Every creature will be just one to slay

Amadeus is seen in the same scene, only now he appears as Sepulchure

Raaaaissing your speeaaars… toooo the skyyyyyyy

Bykir stands with Bolt on his shoulder

Loyal solider keeeeeeeep… maaaaarching on

Amadeus stands with a brooding look on his face

Shoutinging in ooooone… cleeeeeear vooooice

Team JNPR is standing together

Every single dreeeeeaaammm… theeeeeyy haaaaaavvvve

Team RWBY is standing together

Honor the oooonees… who are goooooooonee

Serenity and Summer Rose appear looking down on Bykir and Ruby

Fighting for the saaaaaame… Nooooble cause

Teams RWBY and JNPR are standing together in combat stances

Away from hoooomee… in the wiiild

Bykir, Amadeus, and Bolt are standing in the Atlas Wilds

Trying to surviiiiive… alone.

Bykir, Amadeus, Team RWBY, and Team JNPR are seeing looking up at a menacing image of Cinder, Emerald, Mercury, Neo, Torchwick, Adam, and Valtrith standing together.

Just. Because. We fight. It doesn't mean.

Bykir is seen clutching his fist

We don't have our own fragile heaaaaaaaarts

Shows Amadeus curing Bolt, Sepulchure lying on the ground after being betrayed by MS, Bykir watching Falconreach burn with tears in his eyes, and various emotional scenes involving Teams RWBY and JNPR

If. We. Could. We would go back in time.

The ghost of Serenity is seen cupping Bykir's cheek

So we could prevent all of these waaaaaars.

Bykir is seeing Crying as the ghost vanishes

The real heroes stand until the end

Bykir is seen with one eye glowing red, and the other glowing yellow

But the biggest fight is insiiiiide

Blake is seen clashing with Adam

Feelings clashing while you pretend

Bykir is seen fighting Valtrith

That the bloodstains one day will dryyyyyyyyyyyy

Valtrith is now seen on a dragon Grimm

Then you hear those voices in your head

Bykir is seen with his eyes closed

Telling you it will be alriiiiiiiiiight

Bykir is now riding Bolt in his adult form

But your heart keeps telling you again

Bykir and Valtrith are yelling at each other while their respective dragons are roaring

Real heroes don't have to fiiiiiiight.

Bolt and Grimm Dragon fly to each other and clash

Chapter 2: Escort to Vale

(Ironwood's office)

Bykir was sitting in a chair with his left arm in a sling, while Amadeus was just standing in the corner with his arms crossed and his eyes closed.

Bolt wakes up on Bykir's shoulder. "Where are we?" he asked.

"We're somewhere about to meet some guy called Ironwood," said Bykir.

"I feel like the Dark energy is gone," said Bolt.

"Amadeus healed you," said Bykir.

"That guy from the Rose?" said Bolt, "But aren't, they the bad guys?"

"It's complicated," said Bykir sighing.

Bolt then sensed something from Bykir's mind that made him gasp, "Wait are you saying that guy is," Bolt started before Bykir interrupted with a "Yep."

"Man I haven't seen him in ages," said Bolt.

"You guys do remember I'm right here AND can understand Draconic right," replied Amadeus.

"Anyway how'd we get here?" Bolt asked.

"Well," said Bykir.

Flashback

Qrow was helping Bykir along while Amadeus was just walking behind.

They eventually got to some sort of gate where a couple of armed guards were standing.

"This guy needs medical attention, and then bring him to Ironwood, and give him this," said Qrow as he handed the guard a folded piece of paper, "It's for his eyes only."

"So I got my Arm in a Sling and we are waiting for this Ironwood guy," Bykir finished.

Bolt just nodded.

At that moment the door opened and a man in white stepped through.

"Hello, Bykir, Amadeus, I am General James Ironwood. Head of the Atlesian Military, and Headmaster of Atlas Academy."

"Now from what Qrow tells me in his note, you two possess unique abilities while you combated what he referred to as 'human Grimm,'" Ironwood explained.

"While I don't know much about these 'Grimm,' what little knowledge I do have compels me to agree with that Description of Valtrith," Bykir said with clear venom in his voice.

Ironwood noticed it and he even noticed that Bykir and Amadeus had the looks of war veterans in their eyes.

"Well I'd like you to keep those abilities hidden for now, at least until a colleague of mine can explain the situation properly to you," he added.

"Who is this colleague of yours?" asked Amadeus.

"His name is Ozpin, he is headmaster of Beacon Academy in Vale and a man I trust with my life."

"Very well," said Amadeus.

Ironwood then pressed a button, "Winter come in here please."

A woman with white hair in a ponytail walked through the doors with two more of those soldiers.

"Yes general?" she asked.

"I'd like you to increase the escort on your sister's airship to Beacon and send these two with her," he said.

Winter saluted and beckoned Bykir and Amadeus to follow her.

(Atlas docking bay)

Weiss Shnee, heiress to the Shnee dust company was about to board her airship to beacon when she got an unexpected visitor.

"Winter?" she asked.

"Hello Weiss," Winter replied, "I have come as your military escort now needs to be increased as your airship will be needed to transport these men to beacon."

Weiss looked at the men in question.

One had long blue hair and blue eyes. He was wearing red armor, had a glowing sword on his back, and a lizard on his shoulder.

On top of all that his left arm was in a sling.

The other man had shoulder length red hair and pink eyes. he was wearing grey and dark red armor and a red scarf.

Weiss inwardly sighed at the thought of having to escort people, but at least now she had someone she could talk to.

(Weiss's airship)

Weiss was sitting in a chair while Bykir was sitting in another chair facing her.

Amadeus meanwhile was standing in a corner with his arms crossed, and his eyes closed.

Bykir decided to break the ice, "So I'm Bykir, this guy on my shoulder is Bolt, and the edgy guy in the corner is Amadeus."

"Weiss Shnee," Weiss replied.

"So what exactly is the reason that you needed a military escort to Beacon?" Weiss asked.

"We're not entirely sure ourselves," said Bykir, "Though if I had to take a guess, I'd say it would have to do with our 'unique abilities' Ironwood mentioned."

Weiss cracked an eyebrow at that.

"Well, all I know is that I was fighting one of my greatest enemies Baron Jaysun Valtrith, with Amadeus eventually unexpectedly showing up to assist me, then we were saved by an old man named Qrow who brought us to Ironwood," Bykir explained further.

"Valtrith?" asked Weiss confused having never heard that name.

With the title of Baron he sounded like nobility and would likely have been well known.

Bykir having already having a better grasp of grimm than before had an explanation prepared.

"Baron Jaysun Valtrith is literally evil incarnate. He is as close to pure evil as one can get. He feeds off of negative energy and evil energy. In fact, it would not be an exaggeration to call him a human grimm. I don't claim to understand how politics work, heck I literally just met Ironwood, but if they are trying cover up my constant war against Valtrith, it might be to avoid attracting the grimm."

"W-" Weiss began when the airship suddenly began to shake.

"Ms. Shnee we are being attacked by a large Nevermore!" Shouted the pilot over the intercom.

Everyone looked out the window to see a giant black bird.

"Sheesh how many types of these Grimm are there?" said Amadeus sounding annoyed.

"I've got this," said Bykir standing up.

Weiss tried to protest but Amadeus just silenced her and said, "As much as you want to protest I can't let you, I could deal with that thing myself but there are two reasons why I'm letting Bykir deal with it. First of all Bykir and I aren't friends so I don't give a crap if he dies."

"Love you too Sepulchure."

Amadeus glared at the sound of his old name.

"Second of all, Bykir is the only one with the means to reach that thing and deal with it."

Bykir went up to the airlock and looked at Bolt.

"You up for this partner?" he asked.

Bolt just nodded.

Bykir opened the airlock and stepped out.

Weiss began to panic about Bykir when she heard an explosion and looked at the never more.

Or rather where it was.

Next thing she knew Bykir came back in through the airlock and Bolt seemed to be glowing as Bykir was clutching the amulet around his neck.

Who the heck were these people?

And that chapter is done.

No Heroes Heart Day event this year, kinda makes me sad.

Anyway Anyone whose read Of The Lesser Son will be seeing similarities by now. Anyone who can't figure out how Bykir dealt with the Nevermore is an idiot.

Okay not really, but they miss stuff.

Also what did you all think of the scenes I decided to place with the openings.

Anyway next chapter Bykir and Seppydeus (I did not make that name up btw) will arrive at Beacon and I will have scene with Serenity's ghost. After seeing a bunch of Tributes to Monty Oum at the two year anniversary of his death, this will be my way of not just having a tribute to Serenity, but to Monty Oum as well.

But first I need to start the next chapter of The Dragonborn Returns- Team SVGD.

Also I am planning a multi crossover story of Dragonfable, Star vs the Forces of Evil, Fire Emblem Awakening, Fire Emblem Fates, Undertale, and Skyrim. The fic will be called Magical Multiverse War.

Why am I bringing this up? I'm asking you the readers to create their own dragonborn to be used in the fic. Send me a pm with the details.

I need:

Name:

Gender:

Race:

Allegiances (includes what guilds they are part of and who they sided with in the civil war):

Fighting style (warrior, rogue, mage, or combo):

Skill level (from rookie to maximum potential):

I will use multiple dragonborns as this will be a multiverse, I will use between 3-9.

If I use your dragonborn I will credit you.

Also if you haven't already I'd highly recommend you check out Remnants of Lore by ShioShiro. There aren't that many Dragonfable crossovers with RWBY so they need all the attention they can get. The guy does a very good job.

Anyway, if you have any questions, comments, concerns, suggestions, constructive criticism, or you just wanna say hi, please leave a review.
