Chapter 1 part 2: The Tenno
Dusk, wasn't in the best of moods at the moment, it was as if today was the day for bad things to happen to him, and his team, one thing after another. First off, he and his team had crash landed on a planet after being swallowed by a portal that was meant to take him and his team to the void, the second thing that had initially added to his sour mood was the fact that he and his team had presumed that the planet they had crash landed on belonged to the Corpus. But imagine his surprise when he saw 15 unknown humanoid shaped robotics approaching them, though he and his team were still wary, they at least thought that they were dealing with a new race or some sort of new player that could potentially be friendly to the tenno cause, and that they used proxies similar to the Corpus but doing something the Corpus had never done, shaping their robotics to look like them. At this moment in time Dusk was wondering if this day could get any better or worse than it already was, he was answered moments later when the mech's opened fire which was the third thing that had annoyed him to high hell.
After a very brief firefight which ended up with the last mech being cut down by Dusk's dragon nikana, Dusk could conclude that he wasn't very impressed by the combat ability or durability of these proxies he was dealing with for he had overestimated their combat prowess to some degree based off of their appearance. One of the things that Dusk had overestimated was the speed and agility of these mech's for he thought that based off of their appearance that they would be far more agile and nimble than any MOA he had previously encountered due to their more humanoid form, but from battling them he could tell that they only moved slightly faster than the MOA of the Corpus with some taking firing positions while others moved in closer for melee combat which made them incredibly easy for a tenno to dispatch when they closed in, while the one's at range were also relatively easy to destroy with a single shot only needed downrange due to the lack of cover.
The reason why these mech's were so easy for the tenno to dispatch, was due to the fact that they lack any adequate form of protection from the advanced weapons that the tenno employ, since taking into account where the tenno come from, it is common to find enemies that employ either shield tech, or heavy armor to absorb damage. Due to these countermeasure the tenno would need weapons that can bypass them and so the tenno would either create or modify weapons to easily bypass these protective measures. But due to these mech's lack of either form of protection from the tenno's weapons they were either pieced, shredded or shattered. It didn't take Dusk's team very long to either cut down or shoot the 15 robotics till they dropped silent to the ground mangled in a broken heap of circuitry and scrap.
The final thing which Dusk would consider was the major reason for his poor mood was the fact that he and his team couldn't contact the Lotus or anyone for some reason, it was as if they didn't exist anymore and that was impossible since the Lotus's connection was always present with the tenno watching over them with the vigilance of a hawk. Now he found himself and his team disconnected and without the tenno's most trusted and most caring guide and third mother figure that the tenno have ever had. At this Dusk was silently swearing to himself believing that the reason for their predicament all laid with him because of his sloppy leadership but this only seem to draw worried looks from the other three tenno on his team knowing that he was agonizing over the fact that they were cut off from everyone and everything.
Now he and his team find themselves standing the center of attention of the inhabitants of this world, gathered around them and what Dusk saw of the gathered crowd somewhat surprised him for he had assumed that the inhabitance of this world were technologically advanced enough to due to the robotics that they would employ some sort of protection that had the chance of nullifying damage but from what the tenno saw of the gathered crowd, he gathered that if, this was to turn violent then all it will end in for these people would be a one sided massacre if either group were to clash, due to the fact that the tenno couldn't detect any form of shielding on these individuals or couldn't spot any sort of visible armor that could effectively protect them from the deadly weapons the tenno carried.
This is what Dusk wanted to avoid, killing people who don't have a chance against those that are stronger, for this could easily be a misunderstanding or clearly an accident giving these people the benefit of the doubt since killing those who can't protect themselves against those that are stronger was just wrong plus it wouldn't be entirely their fault if they attacked the tenno for this was their world and the tenno were unintentional trespassers.
Even so killing these people outright without a just reason was not only wrong but taking the lives of normal humans was different from killing a mech and the tenno attached this principle to every living being that is alive for life cannot easily be replaced and ending it for no reason at all was considered taboo to the tenno. For if a tenno was to start taking lives heedlessly without any form of reason was a bad sign for tenno are still fundamentally human and are still prone to physiological damage and if a tenno was to go insane like the stalker it would be bad for they could potentially became killers without remorse targeting friendlies and enemies alike. And this would go against everything the tenno stood for, for the tenno pride themselves as protectors of the weak though if Dusk and his team were attacked by these people they would have no choice but to defend themselves whether they had adequate military equipment to sticks and stones the tenno would be forced to engage their attackers.
Another reason why this could potentially lead to a slaughter was due to the frames he and his teammates were employing for in situations like these, the frames excelled in crowded conditions which means certain death for those surrounding them if the tenno registered them as enough of a threat to use their powers against these people. This left the four tenno with an advantage over the unaware crowd even if these people thought that they had the advantage in numbers and firepower like the many enemies that the tenno have faced before, it….wouldn't…be…enough.
And with those thoughts in mind the Ash prime said two silent words no one, not even his team would be able to detect. "Your move" the Ash Prime said as he gazed into the crowd of onlookers.
General Ironwood was for a better word was pissed, the reason for this was one of the four strangers in the middle of the assembled crowd had the audacity to call a proud innovation from Atlas that was created by the Atlas military to deal with not only with the Grimm but is used by many as a security mech, a toy soldier.
The second thing that angered the general was the fact it had only been a few seconds since the 15 AK-130'S had entered and encountered the four beings and that they had not only dispatched 15 AK-130'S in a timeless fashion but had come out of that conflict entirely unscathed as if the only thing the AK-130'S had been was a very minor nuisance that had been crushed or in this way cut down to nothing also bringing a body back to symbolize the utter defeat.
But the thing that the general hated the most was the fact that these strange people in the middle of the crowd were complete unknowns, to him and everyone else which caused him to be somewhat apprehensive of the four.
For one he knew for a fact that these four had to have weapons of some kind or make or some sort of semblance that had helped them deal with the knights within their brief span of contact of this he was sure, but as to what these weapons were or their semblances are, gave him, the slight impression that he didn't want to find out.
Another thing that got on the generals nerves was the fact that these four strangers were far too comfortable with the current situation for his taste, for their posture's were one's that one would consider relaxed. Normally he would be analyzing the facial features of the person in this situation but due to the faceless nature of these strangers he had to make do with body language instead, and this is what the general hated about them, this confidence they are showing in the face of such odds that normal men and women would of bowed down and given up yet the reason for this confidence that eluded him was perhaps the thing that scared him the most for he didn't know why or how this confidence existed for these strangers for they were a picture to him only partially painted with the rest shrouded in mystery yet he was sure that they were a threat to the safety of everyone around and for that he had to take them down and fast.
He was about to give the order to his men to apprehend these four when suddenly Ozpin who was right beside him gazing with curious eye's at the four surrounded strangers said.
"General, maybe it is best if I handle this, for this could very well be a delicate situation, for I have the feeling that if they wanted to harm us and the students they would have done so by now, I believe that the situation can be handled tactfully" Ozpin said whilst keeping his eyes on the four beings that had not moved an inch since coming out in the open.
"What makes you say this Ozpin" the general said gritting his teeth with the memory of the recent conversation surfacing to the forefront of his mind. "You know they are a threat, they took down 15 knights and my from estimations it only took them a few seconds add to that they are unharmed ,we need to take them down now before anyone gets hurt" the general said in a tone that was meant to be one that brooked no more conversation when Ozpin said.
"General if you have seen what I've seen then it is obvious that they are waiting, if they wished to move against us then why are they standing around" Ozpin said before continuing "I believe they are waiting for us to make the first move to see our intentions" Ozpin said almost complementing the approach that the four strangers in the circle of guns were making, bold yet very clever presenting themselves in such a way that not only makes the intention of those around you entirely clear.
"It makes more sense looking at them" Ozpin thought since their appearance is one many would consider intimidating yet some would consider regal and that any sudden movement on their part could have consequences for both sides to later deal with. He understood the danger these strangers presented and perhaps they did too but they were also presenting a chance, a chance for those around them to learn more and resolve this incident and move on peacefully.
The general looked at Ozpin then back at the four strangers in the center of the circle of guns, Ozpin was many things but one of those things was he was always right about something on some level.
The power of deduction that Ozpin displays is one that is to be respected, now looking more closely the general could tell that these four were waiting, for what, he could not tell it could be for anything from peaceful to violent.
The general sighed before saying.
"Fine, I won't do anything as long as they don't make any sudden or suspicious moves, but how are we going to resolve this" the general asked. At this Ozpin just smiled and said "I plan on walking up to them and shaking their hand".
The generals eyes widened at this for this was just well something so hair brained that it couldn't possibly work but he just filled it down to nothing after all he trusted Ozpin so begrudgingly the general said.
"Oz….. I am not sure about this but if this goes wrong you're going to be in a bad position and I am not sure that this is remotely sane but I….trust you" the general sighed out thinking he must be insane as the man about to attempt this and to even agree but if what Ozpin said is true then this can all be sorted.
"Thank you James" Ozpin said glad that his friend agreed to such a request as Ozpin began walking towards the four strangers in the center past the crowd of people into the circle outlined with armed men who currently had their weapons raised at the four strangers while this was happening four girls were making their opinions about the four strangers in the center of the circle.
Ruby Rose gazed at the four strangers that stood in the center of the circle who had at least more than one hundred guns aimed at them not moving an inch as if they had just stopped and shut down. To say they didn't look intimidating was an understatement, she even caught the eyes of one of the beings in the center of the circle, this one had a crown of gold on its head that met at a single point between where for a normal person a set of eye's would be but Ruby was forced to look away for the beings gaze not only creeped her out but it felt like it was looking deep into her very soul and could see her for everything she was.
Though she wouldn't say she was entirely afraid of them they did however strike up something of a topic she loved.
Weapons.
Ruby was a weapon nut and her love of them would put any other weapon nut on Remnant to shame. She knew this since her sister can't help but point that fact out even though Ruby herself can't help how she feels about weapons. She was at the moment fantasizing about the weapon that cut the AK-130 knight in half it was something that she wished she could see. If she could she would trade all the Chocolate chip cookies on Remnant to just get a good look at the weapon that was used by the odd beings to cut the knight and all the modifications it has.
Yang was of a similar mind with her sister's opinion on the four beings, even though her sister didn't state that they looked creepy Yang thought that these strangers looked as if they were like something that had crawled out of a horror novel. Though she would never say she reads a lot other than when Ruby was younger, if she was to borrow one of Blake's books, she would probably find something that would describe the four strangers inside the circle in detail.
Though there was some things that she did admire about them the fact that they weren't intimidated by all the guns pointed their way was something she was marveling at for even her bravado in the face of all that would only take her so far.
She found herself looking at one of them a female one that had a crown of flames on her head with its face covered with a gold looking claw that reminded her of the foot of a Nevermore. She liked this one a bit more than the others for it looked pretty in her eye's each one had its own beauty but this one caught her eye more since she likened herself to fire and this one seemed to use fire in a way that it appeared regal yet deadly.
That was when it turned its attention on her suddenly as if it had felt her gaze analyzing it and in turn began analyzing her though it was odd that she felt somewhat apprehensive of this being after all this thing had no eyes and couldn't see her right? Then why is it that this thing is sending shivers down her back with its faceless features if it cannot see?
Blake Belladona was many things, a faunus in hiding, a former member of the White Fang and now a hunter in training. She had seen hell and heaven and the worst of all things in her short life. One would think, very few things would frighten her and that a person would be the least likely thing she would be afraid of. Unfortunately they would be proven wrong if one was to look at her face right now you would see that Blake Belladona had a face etched with fear, the cause of this was the four strangers in the circle and she was truly frightened by what she saw, or more by what she felt. She didn't know why she felt this way about the four odd strangers in the center of the crowd but she could only guess that it was because of her faunus animal instincts talking, and what they were saying was that whatever these people are or were they had something seriously wrong with them.
That was when a similar sensation or experience, popped into her head.
They felt in a way vaguely very vaguely similar to Penny in a sense but that was where the similarities ended they had a more ominous presence and they felt more void more artificial more weird then Penny, as if they were hollow and without a soul. This stood the hair on her neck on edge, taking a quick glimpse over to her fellow faunas Sun who she could see who had a similar look on his face which caused her some form of relief to wash over her, that she wasn't the only one who felt this way.
Catching her glimpse, Sun flashed a reassuring smile her way which helped a bit even though the smile on his face was faked and under great strain.
She smiled back which in turn hopefully helped him as well. She then returned her attention to the strangers inside the circle and almost immediately froze as she suddenly found herself holding the gaze of one of the strangers in the circle. At the moment only one thought was pulsing through Blake Belladona's mind at the moment, screaming at her that if she doesn't move she would die.
RUN, RUN, RUN her mind screamed at her futilely yet she stood completely still holding her ground before it quickly looked away. At this point Blake almost felt like she was going to faint, it was as if whatever was gazing at her was just a void, a black hole of sorts that sucked all trace of the light leaving only the darkness, it was as if she had caught the gaze of a predatory animal and the worst thing of all, she was its prey, and for that she could clearly say that holding that being's gaze even for a few seconds was one of the worst things she has ever done.
She looked at everyone else among the crowd seeing many of the human's hadn't noticed what was wrong with the strangers in the center of the circle, yet every faunas among the crowd were very agitated and disturbed, and she couldn't help but think "what the hell are those things"?
Weiss narrowed her eyes and glared at the four strangers in the center of the circle for they appeared to her as nothing but criminals and vandals though as an afterthought she did begin to look more closely at the four ornate strangers trying to pick something up for they were acting oddly for a group of individuals outnumbered and outgunned.
Glaring at them she could only discern one thing, that these four could stay entirely still with no necessary movement other than when they looked around, with them occasionally holding their gaze in certain areas as if they carefully analyzing their surroundings, another thing she noticed was that she didn't even detect any sort of breathing pattern from them it was as if they were inanimate statue's. Straining her eye's she could make out certain patterns of artwork on the armor that looked like that of a flower.
She blinked in surprise was this a family crest for a noble family of some kind she wondered. To her it looked like something an experienced artist would paint on a suit of armor or stich onto clothes in her case but it looked more or less apart of the armor for it glowed in a clear stark white that was identifiable even in daylight, looking at them she could tell that they had an elegance to them that only a few people could achieve and it somewhat shocked her.
They held themselves in a cold calculated manner that spoke of nobility yet it also held traces of a primal savagery of a predatory animal that wanted out of its cage that was when she noticed that one of them was staring right back at her.
For once in her life Weiss felt inferior like that of an ant about to be crushed and for her this was a first time experiencing this for she has never felt inferior to something before and she hated that this stranger could invoke this sort of feeling by simply looking her way. It was like whatever pedestal she stood on was dwarfed by whatever mountain that this stranger stood on, it just held this aura of power and so much more that nobody could or should attain easily, yet these ruffians look like they were born with this power and knew how to wield it.
Weiss was unable to keep up her glare for long, and she soon found herself looking away but not from fear but of angry acceptance that whatever these beings were they were powerful, and capable of great violence and stood on a level that even members of her family haven't obtained and for that matter any person with a higher class up bringing for not one of them she has meet has left this sort of impression that these four strangers left her with but still they were the enemy and they must be dealt with harshly for their trespass Weiss thought to herself.
Dusk, Chara, Apex and Flair were for a better word bored out of their minds waiting for whatever these people decide on doing while these people were trying to decide on how they should handle the four tenno Dusk and the other three tenno of the team were looking at the gathered crowd analyzing everything from their surroundings to tactical points of interest among other things, that was when he and his team started to notice something, an energy that permeated the air and it was an odd one at that.
And so the four tenno ended up scanning for the source of the mysterious energy that had an odd signature to it but what this signature was they could not place. What surprised the four tenno was the sources of that energy which was coming from not only one but three girls with some faint trace of the same energy on a fourth girl. This drew the curious glances from the tenno mostly looking at the four girls analyzing them for they were something that was oddly unique since none of the tenno could detect anything else of a similar nature coming off anyone else that was a part of the crowd.
"Chara have you learned of anything interesting" Dusk said breaking his stern gaze with a white dressed girl once she looked away. Dusk and the other four tenno were using a communications channel that also linked team vitals and status to the other members of the team.
"Define interesting Dusk this is far from interesting I say it is far more intriguing than interesting" she said in a tone that caught the attention of the two other tenno.
"What did you find Chara is it a new weapon or is it something even better!" Flair asked who had just broken eye contact with a girl with blond hair, this question only seemed to draw a slight chuckle from the Excalibur prime Apex who stopped his stare down of a Black clad teen that had the odd energy emanating from her as well but somewhat weaker.
"So Chara what did you find, is it good or bad for I think I speak on the behalf of everyone that good news would be much appreciated" Apex said.
"Well Apex it is good news to a degree for what I can understand that these people aren't very hostile that and we are the first off world visitors they have received so this should be interesting and Flair I did find some cool new weapons that even I want to try out later but these memories I have found are very interesting, the things these people have done it's impressive, here, take a look at this" suddenly memories and images flooded the three tenno who were surprised and somewhat impressed at some of the things Chara had dug up from subtlety entering the minds of the inhabitants of this world but they were also disgusted by a few of the memories she had found.
Dusk looked down and crossed his arms which made a lot of guns train on him but he ignored them thinking "these….. grimm are vile things, drawn by negative emotions with only the need to kill humans and this sub species of humans called faunus" he thought to himself "If anything these grimm are similar to the infested though not as vile, luckily for these people they do not consume the bodies of humans or for that matter the environment but they do reproduce at a rate similar to the infested but if anything they have made progress even when the odds were so stacked against them against a similar enemy for that matter and the fact that they have progressed this much is something that is to admire them for".
Before Dusk could continue with this train of thought movement in the crowd drew his attention.
"Heads up someone is coming" he said warning his team to be ready also deciding on filing away everything that he had learned along with the odd energy readings from the four girls, chalking it up as something native to this world.
Ozpin had finally made it to the perimeter that kept the four beings at bay but at the moment the headmaster of Beacon Academy was somewhat annoyed for having took so long to make his way through the crowd. The reason for this delay was due to an annoying soldier who was under the generals employ, for at first the soldier wouldn't take Ozpin's word that he was allowed to pass but Ozpin was persistent and the fact that he wasn't going to leave until the soldier let him pass. This is when the soldier decided to call the general who then cleared Ozpin officially to pass unhindered into the clearing with the four strangers.
Though now that he was inside the circle he could clearly see every detail of the beings he had first laid eyes on from so far and to say that he was right about them being intimidating was an understatement. He could now feel their power, and it felt raw and powerful, each had a massive amount of whatever it was that gave them this massive amount of it, as if they had vast oceans of reserves that easily dwarfed any amount of aura assembled among the student body and professor's combined, and it felt far more dense then any amount of aura he had ever felt before.
Ozpin could tell that this wasn't aura for aura had a more personal feeling that was attached to the person, after all aura was different for each person and it should have a unique feel distinctive to an individual yet these strangers all had the same feelings to their power. This had Ozpin very curious now for these beings had no aura which confused him for everything native on Remnant that wasn't a grimm had an aura, a manifestation of their soul yet this was completely different, he couldn't even detect any trace of an active aura, not even a dormant one in these strangers, so just what were they?
As he began his approach one of the strangers who he had presumed was the leader of the group who was wearing a cloak and face mask tilted his head to the side as if he was confused by the confidence Ozpin was showing as the other three strangers stopped gazing at the crowd and began giving the headmaster of Beacon Academy a searching look as he approached.
Ozpin didn't stop for a second unfazed by the gazes of the other three as he now stood less than a foot away from the stranger whose tilted head had returned to its usual place and was gazing at Ozpin with needle like eyes trying to decipher him, as if he was an enigma to the stranger that stood in front of him.
This was the deciding moment, would this work as planned or will this endeavor end only in violence? All Ozpin could do now was steel himself and let whatever happens, happen for there was no going back now. So much to the crowds surprise and utter bewilderment Ozpin outstretched his hand and said "Hello I would like to welcome you on behalf of Beacon Academy as headmaster where we train the next generation of hunter's, my name is Ozpin and you are"?
There, it was done, whether or not this offer of friendship would be overturned or not, depended on the response of these strangers, and he couldn't tell anything from them due to their lack of facial features and for all the strange man in armor in front of him did was look at him, unmoving for a few seconds when finally as if he had found whatever he was looking for or lack of the stranger outstretched his hand to Ozpin's outstretched one and shook it before saying.
"On behalf of the Lotus and all my fellow tenno I greet you headmaster of Beacon, I am known as the Tenno called Dusk, I wear the Ash Prime warframe of shadows and stealth and this is my team" Dusk said indicating to each team member to introduce themselves.
All among the assembled audience at this point, all had their jaw's wide open for they couldn't believe that this had even worked or was remotely possible of happening, that Ozpin had walked up to these four offered a handshake and even got a response from them, at that a friendly one. At this the tension in the air died down even the soldiers lowered their weapons when they realized that these four posed no threat to the assembled crowd.
Ozpin was sighing inwardly in relief and at the moment he wished he could see the generals face right now, for he thought it would look somewhat similar to the faces of some members of the audience as he had peacefully resolved the standoff between the assembled groups with only a few words and a handshake but there were a few questions nagging at him, for instance what was this Lotus organization? And what are the tenno? And what was a warframe?
But at the moment the other tenno were greeting him the first of them being the one with a crown of gold that meet at a single point between where a set of eye's would be, they formed this singular eye giving her the appearance of a cyclops as she gazed at him attentively.
"My name is Chara of the tenno I wear the Nyx Prime warframe of midnight and chaos" Chara said.
The next one of the four strangers to great him was the one that had red lining of metal on the lower edges of its face with the same color for the arch which had two lines running up to a horn on the helmet.
"My name is Apex of the tenno I wear the Excalibur Prime warframe the first warframe created the sword master frame" Apex said.
The last one to greet him was perhaps the most interesting for its whole face was covered by a golden claw that looked like it belonged to a nevermore with a crown of flames dancing on top of its head.
"I am Flair of the tenno I wear the Ember Prime warframe of fire and destruction" Flair said.
"It is a pleasure meeting you all but there is something bothering me that I just have to ask, I have never heard of this Lotus organization or of the tenno and this is my first encounter with your organization are you new by any chance" Ozpin said not realizing he was going to get the most surprising of responses.
At this all the four assembled tenno just looked at each other for a brief moment before Dusk turned his head back around to face Ozpin and said. "We are not from this world headmaster Ozpin for we come from a system called the origin system from a planet called Earth.
You would think that after what Ozpin did that everyone's jaws couldn't drop any farther, yet if you were to look around the clearing everyone's jaw's now looked like they were now near borderline dislocation at the sudden bombshell dropped by the Ash Prime with someone shouting in the background saying I told you so. The only one not displaying any sign of shock was Ozpin however he did raise an eyebrow at this for it raised even more questions for him, but he for one believed them, the fact that they don't have an aura almost supports this along with their attire it was something entirely unique to Remnant and taking a look behind the beings he could see the objects that had crashed into the grounds of Beacon.
Looking at the objects closely he could tell that it was something shaped like a sleek arrowhead with two tails which in Ozpin's opinion looked too alien to be from Remnant. With these facts he acknowledged that they were not from Remnant but one more question was present in Ozpin's head.
"If you are not from this world then might I ask why are you here, for your entrance was one many would consider flashy at best" Ozpin said which made the tenno turn around and look at the four craft in question closely, for each were firmly planted in the ground in their own craters.
Dusk had to resist shuddering and nervously rubbing his head at the damage to the grounds near the statue. The crash site of the four lisets looked like a disaster zone, flower beds and gardens and perfectly kept lawn were simply obliterated when the lisets had crash landed on top of them, turning back to Ozpin he could see that he was waiting for a plausible response from him.
"Well… normally that wouldn't have happened but due to circumstances that we are uncertain of ourselves and due to those circumstances our ships ended up disabled and in orbit of your planet which caused us to crash land here, wherever here is if our assumptions are correct we have crash landed on a world that we had no prior knowledge of, or of your existence until now" Dusk said.
"Wait" Ozpin said clearly wishing for clarification on something, "You crash landed all the way from orbit and your ships survived impact" Ozpin asked in a tone saying somehow he can't believe what he was told.
"It appears so" the Ash Prime said not getting why Ozpin looked slightly stunned which drew the attention of the Ash Prime who tilted his head at Ozpin and asked "What's wrong are you upset about the garden" ? Dusk asked.
"Oh no it's just that I find it somewhat hard to believe that any craft could survive a crash landing from orbit, it's just difficult to believe that something so small could not be damaged from that sort of impact" Ozpin said which drew a grunt from Apex who said.
"The evidence is right in front of you headmaster we are not from this world and where we come from our craft need to be highly durable to survive the constant dangers from our system that wish for nothing but our destruction" Apex said annoyed that Ozpin found it hard to believe what he was told when the truth was right in front of him.
"Perhaps we should take this conversation elsewhere headmaster, I don't suppose you have a location where we can speak in private" Dusk asked with the other three tenno shadowing behind him once he said that.
"Right if you would follow me" Ozpin said but as soon as the tenno made to follow Ozpin the mech that had been cut in half suddenly came back to life and grabbed Dusk's leg which made the tenno stop and look down at the ruined mech which barely clung to whatever life it had left in it as it tried desperately to stop the Ash prime from moving.
The Ash prime and the other three tenno stood unmoving for a few seconds when the Ash prime's hands began to move down towards his side where there was a shimmer of energy and a blade appeared that had an intricate sheath that had metal wrapped around it while the sheath pulsed with red and black energy when suddenly a hum started to come from the sword and scabbard as red particles swirled around it and if you were to also be looking at the wielder you would see that his appearance has changed to a small degree.
Patterns that were once hidden behind the cloak light up in a vibrant red and came into full view of the audience of onlookers as the cloak fully parted to reveal intricate patterns underneath that shone with the blade which was slowly being drawn from its scabbard.
The audience soon found themselves captivated by the beauty of the blade as electric green energy sparked and writhed and twisted around it as if it was alive which shocked some members of the audience for nothing on Remnant had this kind of effect but before those few individuals could continue this line of thought the blade fell causing a whistling effect as if the very air was being cut, the intent of the blade was clear to all who could see for the blade had decided on ending the last remnants of life of the thing that had dared touched it's wielder.
What surprised the audience was the effect the weapon had on the remains of the robot for when the respective weapon had cleaved through the already damage robot the audience heard a slight whine and through widened eyes witnessed the remains of the mech suddenly float apart and disintegrate into nothing leaving no trace of it ever existing.
But this had an unintentional side effect of causing the rest of the mech's in the clearing to raise their weapons while some deployed wrist blades. Realizing the danger Dusk looked towards Ozpin who was clearly going to be caught in the line of fire if he didn't do something so Dusk did the only thing he could do.
For a moment the Ash prime stood in place then in the next he was gone in a flash of black smoke much to the audience's surprise, but when they laid eyes on him again what they saw astonished and frightened them to no end for when they saw the Ash Prime appear and reappear meant utter destruction for the army of AK-130's silencing them all without resistance with two large wrist blades that had appeared out of nowhere.
The Ash Prime was all over the place teleporting to and from his targets in a frenzied storm that nobody other than a tenno would be able to follow, only taking a millisecond to deal with each of his targets so fast that there were after images of him appearing and disappearing that it didn't take him long to end all hostile targets that were about to open fire.
He reappeared back in front of Ozpin who was gazing silently at the sudden carnage he had witnessed by the person in front of him as one by one, each AK-130 knight fell to the ground all in shattered heaps like dominoes.
At this sudden display of speed and skill the humans who hadn't raised their weapons unlike their robot counterparts felt the need to drop their weapons for they didn't wish to end up in a gory heap by the aliens from another system who displayed powers that were by far anything beyond their comprehension.
The tenno simply ignored this as Dusk refocused his attention on Ozpin and said in a voice so casual that you would swear that nothing had happened and that he didn't just in fact destroy all of those knights with ease as he said.
"Headmaster Ozpin, I think it would be a good idea if we were to head to that location you were directing us to for I think we have been delayed for far too long" the Ash Prime said making it clear that he had had enough of what he called delays for one day.
"Yes…..I guess we should get moving, after all we have a lot to discuss and…. a lot to work out" Ozpin said whilst turning around and walking towards the large buildings that housed most of the Academy hoping that nothing bad will occur on their way to his office but as Ozpin and the tenno made their way towards the many buildings and past the crowd that simply parted ways for Ozpin and his guests but if you were to look at Ozpin's face you would see the glimmer of a smile on his face and if you were to look into his mind you would find these thoughts going off in his head those thoughts being, "I was wrong about this being an interesting year for now I can say it is something far more than simply interesting" with that said Ozpin looked behind him and thought "What other surprises do you have in store for me my odd new acquaintances".
Looking forward again Ozpin continued on his way towards the looming presence of Beacon Academy wondering what the future held in store for him and his little school.
AN: Yay another chapter and to say this is hard is an understatement so I will say this updates may come at varied intervals depending if I have the time to write and I plan to keep chapters at 7 to 10k words for they are going to be how big I write but other than that to say I am proud of myself for writing this chapter is again an understatement for I feel as if I am getting far more better with my writing anyway feel free to drop a review or a fav and tell me what you think of the story so far and a shout out to the support and some of the reviews I have received they have made writing this easier and are a big motivator for me anyway thanks for reading and have a happy new year :D :D
Changes: Warframes start with max energy instead and due to the tenno's epic power they display during the second dream quest I thought wait if they have this much energy from waking up from however long they have been sleeping and that they can kill Sentients then damn they must have a lot of energy without the Warframes plus I picked up on a bit of dialog during the second dream quest when you meet the Lotus and it goes like this "we could do things amazing things" now combining this with the Excalibur codex entry that say's science and reason fail to explain the void and since tenno use void energy as their power some of you might guess where I am going with this :3
Hint: Tenno are pretty much gods since they use void energy so for instance the realm of physics is broken sorry guys but imagine the possibilities XD
Another thing I will be changing or in this case adding is some science behind modding don't worry it will be simple but I plan to keep it realistic to a level for instance the corrosive energy that is used and how it is created for instance this is created by simply making that energy negative making corrosive energy this is based off of acid's in a way since acid's are negative ion's I think if I remember my chemistry right.
Foundry will pretty much be the same well perhaps bigger for warframe creation and no team RWBY will not become tenno I like them the way they are but you will see what I have planned latter on for them if you have been watching the show then perhaps you know what I am hinting at again and this time no hints :3
Alright this is taking too long to explain so I will explain more in later chapters.
