Ou0: Yes, Ultra is CERTAINLY not breaking the fourth wall... that would me CRAZY, UNHEARD OF. And hilarious. And awesome. Thanks for reviewing!

I can break the fourth wall though.

No. You are not appearing in the author notes. This is my section.

Whatever. You're a dickhead anyway.

Uhh... hey everyone, it's chapter 10! First off, shout out to Ou0 to being the one correct about Ultra breaking the fourth wall. As he was the only one... seriously, no one else even tried to answer. I'm not asking for reviews, but come on! It was ONE person who tried. I get dozens of individual viewers a chapter, and one person tried. Come on.

Disclaimer: I'm not begging for Reviews, but, just think on it.

Now, this is the final chapter of the pre-canon, setting up events for the tournament. As I haven't written the chapter yet, it could go any way. Long Chapter? Short Chapter? Fighting? Talking? Who knows? But, enjoy the chapter anyhow.

Chapter Ten - The Vytal Tournament

"... With our hatred; the incredibly awesome Ultra Mega, the incredibly sexy Willow Anderson and the incredibly annoying Peter Anderson. P.S. Fuck you. P.S.S Red vs Blue is awesome." Ultra finished reading the message, before pressing send on the computer. He turned around and faced the Inhumans. "So, what did you think?"

"I am not incredibly annoying." Peter noted, crossing his arms with a pout. Ultra just laughed at him.

"Oh, Peter, you're such a kid at heart, aren't you?" Ultra asked.

"I'm 15." He deadpanned.

"You think I'm sexy?" Willow asked with a blush.

"You're fucking a-right! How are you even single? Anyone could fall for you." Ultra told her with a grin, getting a stronger blush from her.

"T-thank you." She said quietly, looking at the ground, embarrassed.

"Right! Now for some new plans." Ultra told them, turning back to his computer and typed quickly.

"What now?" Peter asked, approaching and looking at the computer.

"What I am doing... is entering us into the Vytal Festival." He told Peter, not looking away from the screen.

"Why would be fight in the tournament?" Willow asked, blush fading away.

"Well, beautiful, we need money, and this is the best way I can think of. Also, Epsilon can't fight with Team RWBY, so he needs a team to fight with. Hence: us." Ultra explained, getting another blush from Willow.

"Huh. Money could be useful." Peter said to himself.

"No shit. I have an incredible idea, a job for the three of us, but we need Lien to kick us off the ground. And since I'll know who will win the tournament, I bet all the money I can get on them winning." Ultra told him.

"We'll win, right?"

"No."

"No? Why not?" Willow asked.

"Canon. We're going to help the winner win by defeating other teams that stand a chance. But only OC teams or teams we didn't see fight." Ultra explained.

"So, who's gonna win?" Willow asked again.

"Ah, that would ruin the surprise. Also, I don't know yet, the episode hasn't been released. Now, I have a lot of work to do, starting with looking at an old fairy tale: The story of the Seasons. Wink." The two siblings glanced at each other and left the room.

"He's... different." Peter said.

"You think? It's like he's not even the same person anymore. He was cold, calculated and constantly insulted us. Now..." Willow stated.

"He's cold, calculated and constantly insults us." Peter interjected.

"Well, yes, he is. But he's different. He acts more like a person now, and less like a robot."

"Well, maybe this new body did something different than the other ones. Personally, this Ultra is better. He seems to care about us." Peter told his sister.

"Yeah, in some weird, messed up way, he cares about us." Willow agreed.

"He thinks your hot. That's a plus."

"S-shut up."

Beacon Academy...

I slowly opened my eyes, and for the first time in a long time woke up with the same recurring nightmare. Me and Team RWBY, along with the other students at Beacon, managed to defeat the robot army from my dreams and Ultra himself, who became... a good guy? I stretched slightly and got to climb out of the joint bed, but I was trapped by a busty blonde. I sighed and tried to release her, but her grip tightened.

"Noooo... stay." Yang moaned sadly, not wanting to get up.

"Yang, it's late, we have to get up. Now." I say, pulling away from her.

"Nooooooo! I order you to stay!" Yang whined, gripping tighter. I sighed in defeat and lay back down, Yang grinning at me.

"You're lucky you can just order me around." I complain, making Yang laugh a little.

"Now, back to sleep..." Yang said, and her eyes closed, falling back asleep almost immediately. I lean back onto the pillow and my eyes close.

Maybe this isn't such a bad idea...

Both of our eyes immediately shot open as a ear-bleeding whistle went off in the room. Me and Yang, along with Weiss and Blake, glared at the perpetrator: Ruby.

"GOOD MORNING TEAM RWBEY!" Ruby yelled at the top of her lungs, grinning largely. Her grin slowly faded as the four of us glared at her, annoyed. "What?"

"WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU, YOU DUNCE!" Weiss exclaimed.

"W-what? It-it's morning." Ruby stuttered with fear.

"Well, Yang, guess we have to get up now." I said with a cocky smile.

"Noooo..." She said quietly, slamming her face into the pillow. "I feel ill..."

"Come on Yang, we have to be ready for today. The Vytal Tournament starts later today!" Ruby cheered, raising her arms in joy. Suddenly, Yang was full of life, not lying dead in the bed.

"Hell yeah! Team RWBY's gonna kick some butt!" Yang yelled, punching the air. I just smirked at Yang's enthusiasm, but realised that I would not be there to help them this time.

Mountain Glenn...

A pack of Beowolves and a Goliath stormed down one of the streets of the abandoned city, knocking down ash ridden and half destroyed skyscrapers on it's path. In an instant, all the Beowolves were dead, blood pouring onto the ground and the bodies dissolved into black smoke. The Goliath stopped and looked at the dead Grimm, cocking it's head to the side slightly. It looked up the street and Willow stood there, crimson energy flowing from her hands and eyes glowing.

The large Grimm roared and charged at her, stepping on the half-decayed bodies of the Beowolves that lay on the ground. As it got closer, Willow raised her arms and shot her crimson energy like lightning, immediately scorching, cracking and breaking off pieces of it's white skull mask. As it shook off it's disorientation, Willow pressed her hands together, making a ball of crimson energy in her hands, and shot it at the Goliath. It struck the Grimm's body, knocking it off it's feet. Willow forced the skyscraper next to the Goliath to collapse, crushing the Grimm under the rubble. She smirked and her eyes and hands stopped glowing.

Willow started walking back to where Ultra was, when her brother appeared next to her in a flash. "Good hunting, huh?"

"Yeah, but I've never seen a Goliath this up close." Willow pointed out.

"It was cool though. You killed that thing like it was nothing." Peter said. They both reached Ultra's building, and found him looking at the computer, one elbow in the table, holding his face up with his hand.

"God... fucking... damn it!" He yelled, slamming his other hand on the table. "I can't come up with a team name."

"Well, have you tried middle names?" Peter suggested.

"Wait, you have middle names?" Ultra asked, leaning up. "Huh, maybe if I gave a shit about you, I'd know that."

"Yeah, his middle name is Cahil, mine is Rosalba." Willow told him.

"Cahil, young, inexperience, naive. Sounds like you." He said, looking at Peter. "Wait, what was yours?"

"Rosalba." She reminded.

"Rosalba! That's so cool! Stop reading and look up what it means, it's so referential." Ultra exclaimed, and typed on the computer. "Right, I have the team name. It doesn't follow that color rule, but who fucking cares."

"So, what team are we?" Peter asked.

"Team UCER, which is from User. It's from TRON." Ultra told him. "Willow, check for anything on the computer before we go, we have a tournament to get to."

"I'm not your secretary."

"Just fucking do it." Willow just rolled her eyes and typed on the computer, when a message popped up.

"Ultra, you have a message." Willow informed him.

"From who?" Ultra asked, turning to her.

"Qrow Branwen." She said.

"Who the fuck is Qrow Branwen? I've seen a Qrow Xiao Long before." Ultra said to himself. He went over to the computer and looked at the message.

Ultra, you've been causing a lot of trouble recently, including destroying a bar, destroying someone's home, attacking Beacon Academy, kidnapping the heiress to the Schnee Dust Company and you kidnapped and tortured my niece, Yang.

I like you're style.

We need to talk, but more privately. Come meet me at the Crow Bar after your fight in the tournament.

We have a lot to talk about.

- Qrow Branwen

"Huh." Ultra just said.

"What?" Peter asked.

"Nothing, just... nothing." Ultra said quietly. "Right! We have a tournament to get to, pack your stuff and feed that dog, we leave in an hour." The two Inhumans left without a word and Ultra sat back in his seat, kicking his legs up onto the table.

"Branwen?"

The Amity Colosseum...

"WOW! The Colosseum looks so much more cooler up close!" Ruby exclaimed in amazement, looking out of the window at the floating super structure. The Amity Colosseum, the stadium used for the Vytal Tournament flew high in the sky, in eyes view from Beacon. The structure was separated into three distinct parts which all came together to make one. The Colosseum itself at the top of the structure, the docks below it and a large crystal-like object at the bottom, pointing at the ground. As the airship we were in docked, we exited and headed for the top of the structure for our fights.

We reached the top and found Professor Port and Doctor Oobleck talking amongst each other. The doctor turned and noticed us. "Ah, Team RWBY! Good to see you are here on time!"

"Wouldn't miss it for the world, Doctor." Ruby responded.

"Yeah, we've got a tournament to win!" Yang agreed.

"That's the spirit, Miss Xiao Long. Will the four of you be watching the first match before your own?" Port asked.

"Yes, we must learn the tactics of any opposing teams to improve our chances at winning." Weiss stated.

"The four of us?" Blake asked.

"Yes, it is to my knowledge that Epsilon here is fighting in the next match." Oobleck elaborated.

"Wait, what? What's the teams?" I asked, confused. Oobleck quickly checked his scroll.

"It says here that the next scheduled fight is between Team UCER and Team HAUS." Oobleck confirmed. I briefly turned around, rubbing my eyes in annoyance.

"Where is Team 'UCER' now?" I asked.

"They are out on the arena, waiting for you I believe." Port told me. I groaned and walked off. The girls just looked at each other briefly before heading for the seats to watch the match.

The Arena...

"You, are one cunning, annoying, manipulative excuse for an android, you know?" I asked, storming up to Ultra.

"Good to see you too. Miss me?" Ultra asked.

"What the hell were you thinking, roping me into this?" I asked.

"Hey, I need money, you need a team, it's a win-win. Unless we lose, then it's a win-lose." Ultra stated. "Like my weapons?" He pulled out a pair of pistols from his trousers, which attached back onto him at close contact. He reached back into a 'X' shaped sheath and pulled out two straight, bladed machetes, not a scratch on them. "I look like fucking Deadpool with these weapons! Haven't used them yet, fresh Ultramanium."

"What the hell is 'Ultramanium'?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"That's Ultra being to egotistical." Peter pointed out, securing his boots properly.

"It's a metal that he named after himself. His weapons and body are made from it, I assume you're made of it too." Willow elaborated, putting on her gloves.

"You'd be right." I confirmed. After we had finished setting up, we looked across the octagon shaped arena to the opposing team, Team HAUS. The first girl was a human with brown hair and hazel eyes and with pale tanned skin and wore a hazel coloured leather jacket with a black tank top and dark blue jeans with black boots and a brown belt. The belt had 14 daggers attacked to it magnetically to keep them secure.

The second girl was a human with blonde hair and amber eyes and with pale tanned skin and wore a sleeveless light brown leather jacket with white tape around her chest and knuckles. She wore light blue denim shorts with brown leather boots. Against her right thigh lay a small, 6 inch sheath holding a weapon.

The third girl was a twin, who was also a monkey faunus looking exactly the same but with different coloured eyes and hair, umber eyes and brown hair with pale tanned skin and a tail. She wore a sleeveless dark brown leather jacket with white tape around her knuckles and chest. She wore dark blue denim shorts with brown leather boots. Opposed to her sister, the sheath lay on her right thigh, hiding the weapon.

The only male member of the team stood at the end with silver hair, silver eyes and pale skin. He wore an open grey short sleeve button down shirt with black cargo pants and black trainers. On his back were a pair of automatic pistols and a dagger across the bottom of his back, underneath his shirt. I glanced up at the holographic display to see their names.

Vanessa Hazel. Amber Carmine. Umber Carmine. Xander Silver.

Around the eight of us, several holograms activated, showing a spinning display of icons for the biomes. After several seconds of spinning, the spinners behind us stopped on the ocean, the arena behind us opening and lifting up a large body of water with s crashed ship and several sand spots in the water. On the opposite side, a flat desert appeared, with old or dead trees and a large sun overhead.

"Guess we have the home field advantage." I heard Vanessa yell across the stadium.

"You lot from Vacuo?" I asked.

"Well, sorta..." She replied, confusing me slightly.

"Team UCER from Atlas vs. Team HAUS from Elysium." Port announced over the speakers. I unsheathe my daggers and turn the left one into the pistol, aiming it to the other side of the arena and holding the dagger defensively.

"Three..."

Peter leans forward slightly, ready to run at the opposing team.

"Two..."

Willow's eyes glow crimson as the energy flows from her hands.

"One..."

Ultra unsheathed his machetes, spinning them a couple of times with a grin.

"Begin!"

End of Chapter Ten

Well, have to end it like that, don't I? No, I don't, but it's like 1 in the morning and I'm really fucking tired. I just want to sleep. So, next chapter will be set during episode 1 of volume 3, and will follow the plot from then afterwards. The thing that worries me is that after six episodes, half of them are just Team RWBY watching other teams fight, which is great to watch, not great to write when you're main guy just... watches people fight. I'm sure I'll figure something out. Now for the story recommendation:

Name: Father Jaune

This is Jaune Arc and I became a father. (Fatherly!Jaune, Jaune x harem)
