Chapter 2: Invitation
Star and Ike walked through the forest "Okay,so let me get this straight. We're basically we're just smothering sap on the trees to keep the grimm away?" Ike asked.
'Yep." Star replied.
They reached a tree and started smothering sap on it. Ike looked at the pink substance "Wonder if its eatable."
"Heh. Why don't you try and see for yourself?" Star said sarcastically.
"Okay!" Ike opened the lid and started eating it.
"Wait! I was joking!" Star pulled the Jar out of his grasp and saw Ike licking his lips "Well?" Star looked at Ike.
"Its….actually really good!" Ike shouted.
Star slapped the back of Ike's head "Shhhhhh shut up!" Star shouted quietly.
"Sorry."
Star sighed "Let's just get this done and head back to the village.
"Okay."
Star and Ike spent the day smothering sap on the trees While Jasper and Amber helped the villagers. The village had a little upgrade since the boys arrived, Jasper was the one to thank for that. He had turned their houses from wood to stone, they've built walls to cover the entire village and tower to watch over them.
"Done." Star turned to see Ike had smothered the last tree in sap "Lets head back now." Ike said.
Star nodded and began heading back with Ike by his side. They then heard a growl and looked to see a Beowolf approaching them. Ike sighed and his hand enveloped in fire and shot the Wolf Grimm and it burned away to ash.
"I thought these things traveled in packs." Star said.
"This one must have wondered away from its one." Ike replied.
Star kept walking until he stopped and looked to his left "….There's something there."
"What? Where?" Ike looked in the same direction as Star.
"25 meters away. It's big."
Ike narrowed his eyes and his chain dropped to his side.
Star summoned his swords and got into a fighting stance. When the stepped closer to the bush their hearts stopped when they saw the grimm emerge from the bush, its yellow eyes trained on them.
With The Village~
Jasper and Amber walked to a house with a bunch of crops in baskets in their hands. They had been gathering crops for the day as their job and taking it to the farmer. Jasper and Amber knocked on the door and a man with Koala ears opened up and smiled "Ah! Jasper, Amber. Did you get everything now?" He said.
"Yes Ollie we did." Amber said.
"If that's all the crops then thanks good work for today." Ollie said.
"No problem, see ya Ollie." Jasper said giving the man a handshake.
"See ya mate." Ollie said and began bringing the crops into his house.
Jasper and Amber sat on a bench and sighed "Thanks for helping me out Jasper."
"Yeah. No problem." Jasper said.
Amber looked around them "…You know, its funny."
"hm?"
"This village didn't have such much and defenses before you came. But looking at it now and seeing all the people you've helped have given them hope again."
"…."
"And for once in their lives they don't have to worry about Grimm sneaking into their rooms and ripping their throats out."
"….Yeah…"
"…What's wrong." Amber knelt down so she could see his eyes.
"…Star, Ike and I were talking last night….We've decided tomorrow that we're leaving."
"W-What?!" Jasper covered her mouth and put his finger on his lip signaling for her to be quiet.
"Amber, its not that we want to leave…its just. We have a dangerous organization after us still, remember?"
"Oh…"
"But trust me when I say this. The…things that are after us are more dangerous than the Grimm themselves."
"That dangerous huh?" Jasper nodded and Amber sighed "okay. I understand."
Jasper put a hand on her shoulder and said "Thank you."
Amber smiled and hugged Jasper which took him by surprise. They separated when they heard the gates opening. Jonathon walked past them and Amber got up followed by Jasper and went to Johnathon "Johnathon, what's going on?"
"Just a few guests." Johnathon answered.
When the doors opened it revealed a man that wore a double-breasted burgundy suit with gold piping and buttons. His pants were tucked into his olive boots, He had Grey hair and a grey moustache.
Behind him were 4 other people, 2 girls and 2 boys.
One girl had long, brown hair and brown eyes. She also had a pair of long, brown rabbit ears, making her easily identifiable as a Faunus. She wore a short, long-sleeved brown jacket with a golden zipper, brown pants and black leggings with golden detail. She also wore a black, semi-translucent undershirt beneath her jacket, along with golden spaulders and vambraces on both arms, as well as a similar belt. She also had a box on her side that was brown and gold.
Next to her was a tall boy, he had shaved-short black hair and tanned skin, wearing mostly pale-green and brown attire. He had a long short-sleeved robe, which he wore on one shoulder over a black muscle shirt. The robe was fastened at the waist by a leather armoured belt with two pouches on it. He also wears brown pants and black-and-green boots and had a sword on his back.
The other boy had dark skin and dark, messy copper hair that has a long fringe and a cowlick. He wore a sleeveless, muted orange zipper vest with black lining and a high collar, a pair of black jeans, and brown, laced shoes and black gloves. Jasper noticed that his eyes appeared to be pure white, it didn't take long for Jasper to realize that he was blind. He also noticed a pair of blades that looked like they were attached to his arms.
The final girl had fair skin, short dark-brown hair. She had wavy locks on one side of her face, dyed with a gradient that starts in dark brown and transitions to caramel like colour. She wore long, cocoa-coloured shirt with a dark brown waist cincher. She wore long, dark brown trousers with ribbons on the left side and a brown belt with bullets. She had a handbag on her side and wore sunglasses on her eyes and had a barret hat on her head..
Johnathon went up to them and bowed "Welcome friends, what can I do for you?" He said.
"Greetings! I am Peter Port, a professor from beacon." Professor Port said.
"Beacon?" Jasper wondered.
"It's a school where Hunters and Huntress' go." Amber whispered back while still looking at the newcomers.
Jasper raised a brow "They have schools that teach that sort of thing in this world?"
"Yeah."
"Interesting."
Back with Port and Johnathon. The student with the bag went up to Johnathon and pulled out a damaged tablet shaped object "Our ship crashed and we need an evac.,Unfortunately our scrolls are damaged and we're stuck here." She said.
Johnathon took the devices off all of the four's hands and looked at them "Hmm…I'm afraid I don't have anything that I can use to repair it." He said.
"oh. I see-" Port was cut off when Johnathon put his hand up.
"But. I do have someone who can help."
"Really?" Port said.
"Yes. Jasper! Come here for a sec!"
Jasper looked at them and walked towards them "Yes?" He said.
"Would you mind fixing these?" Johnathon handed him the scrolls.
Jasper took the devices and studied it hmmm, a few loose wires, the circuits is out of place in each one. Should be easy. Jasper thought and turned around "This will only take a few seconds."
Port looked at them boy as he sat with Amber. He looked around and said "This village is inhabited by Faunus correct?" he said.
"Yes." Johnathon replied back.
"What is a human doing here?"
"Oh, well Amber found them in the forest. They have very unique….semblances."
"They?"
"Yes, three brothers."
"So you let them stay?"
"Yes, and in return for our kindness, they did all this for us."
Port and the other four students looked around amazed "The wall?" The girl with rabbit ears said.
"Yep."
"The houses?" the one with the beret hat said.
"Yes, everything, even food and water and the protection we needed from the Grimm."
"Wow." The one with the sword said.
Jasper came back and handed them the scrolls "Here."
The four nodded and took the scrolls off his hand. They opened them up and a screen popped up with their pictures and their aura on it "They work." The bunny eared girl said.
"That was fast," the girls lowered her sunglasses revealing her dark-brown eyes looking the red eyed boy up and down "What's your name?"
"Jasper, Jasper Light." Jasper introduced himself.
"Nice, I'm Coco Adel. These are my teammates. That's Velvet Scarlatina," The rabbit girl did a little wave "Yatsuhashi Daichi," The one with the long sword bowed "and Fox Alistar." The one with white eyes nodded in response.
Amber walked over "Nice to meet you all. Oh I'm Amber Moon by the way." the others waved.
Port came up to Jasper "How did you repair the scrolls so quickly?" He asked.
"My...Semblance." Jasper simply said.
"hmm...and what is that."
Jasper wondered for a bit and looked at him "Electrokenisis."
"...Splendid!"
Jasper was taken back by his sudden change in tone but shook it off and looked up at the sun then at his shadow on the ground "...Star and Ike should of been back by now."
"Johnathon!" Johnathon turned to the direction of the voice and saw one of the watchtower guards waving.
"What is it?" Johnathon called out.
"Star and Ike are running from a Grimm."Jasper and Amber looked at each other and ran for the entrance.
"Open the gate!" Johnathon yelled.
The guard nodded and gave orders for the gate to open, once it opened they saw Star and Ike running "No no no! Close the gate back up!" Ike said waving his arms side to side.
The guard looked at Johnathon and Johnathon nodded and the guard closed the gate. Star and Ike reached the wall surrounding the village. Star put his hands together and Ike jumps on his hands and Star boosts him over the wall. Before Ike went completely over he dropped his chain to Star and Star grabbed onto it and Ike pulled his chain and Star went over the fence too. "Star! Jasper! What's wrong?"
"...Grimm...three...heads." Ike blurted out.
"Gak!" Everyone looked at the watchtower to see the guard with a spike in his neck coughing out blood. Then he fell off the tower hitting the ground hard. Then they heard banging on the gate. Jasper, Star, Ike and Amber were about to get weapons ready but Team CFVY stood in front of them "we got this." Coco said as her handbag turned into a minigun.
All the boys did was just stare "Holy..shit." Ike said.
Suddenly the gates opened a little bit and two claws pried through the door slowly opening it. Yatsuhashi grabbed his sword and Fox and Velvet stood ready. When the grimm finally opened the gate, everyone stood in fear. This grimm wasn't an ordinary grimm. It was a boewolf...with three heads! The bones on it had covered almost all of its entire body making it look almost impossible to penetrate it.
Coco smirked and lowered her glasses "This is a new one." She spit on the ground and pulled the trigger unloading a barrage of bullets at it. The 'mutated' beowolf put its arms up covering its heads as the bullets made contact. Coco stopped firing and looked at the cloud of dust left by the barrage. When it cleared. It showed the beowolf still standing up, it lowered its arms from its face and growled at them. It then ran at her on its hind legs and tried to swipe at her but Yatsuhashi stopped its claw with his sword. The beowolf looked at Yatsuhashi and growled once again. Then Velvet and Fox delivered a kick to its chest sending it back. The beowolf looked up and saw Yatsuhashi going for a sideways slash but stopped it just inches away from its neck. It pushed the sword away and dodged every swing Yatsuhashi took, what is this thing? Yatsuhashi thought.
Then Yatsuhashi went for a downwards slash but the 'mutated' beowolf stopped it with its hands and shoulder charged Yatsuhashi making his fall back. It then through his sword away and raised its claw but Fox kicked it in the face and slashed at it. But his blade ricochet off the bone armor. The grimm then grabbed Fox by the head and hit him in the stomach into a building. "Fox!" Velvet cried out. She then heard footsteps behind her and she turned around to see the 'mutated' beowolf towering over her. She froze up not knowing what to do. When the beowolf reached for her, she thought this was it for her. Then a bullet wized passed the 'mutated' Beowolf's middle head.. it ised its arms again to blockits head from bullets coming from Amber.
The 'mutated' beowolf uncovered its eyes and felt a force pushing it back away from Velvet. Star looked over his shoulder at Velvet "your team needs help. Go to their aid." He said and she nodded and ran to her team.
The 'mutated' Beowolf raised its hands and turned them into fists and hit Jasper and Ike in the back. Star looked at them then at the 'mutated' beowolf then stopped pushing it and blocked its hands from squishing him. Seeing an opening, it kicked Star away and went to stab Ike and Jasper with its claws but the boys moved out of the way in time. "We need a plan." Star said.
"...wait, Amber shoot its heads."
Amber nodded and aimed at the 'mutated' Beowolf's heads and pulled the trigger, but it blocked the bullets with its arms.
"Just as I thought." Jasper said.
"What?" Ike asked.
"Have you noticed that all this time, its been blocking its heads the entire time?"
"Yeah...oohh!" Star realized where he was going.
"we need to get rid of those arms tho." Ike said.
Jasper walked forward "leave that to me." He said.
Jasper walked in front of the beowolf. The 'mutated' beowolf went to slash at him but felt it get grabbed by something hard. It looked to see its hand trapped my a hand made of earth. Then another hand came out and grabbed the other hand. "Now!" Jasper yelled pulling out one of his gun blades.
Ike ran at the 'mutated' beowolf and jumped passed its left head, wrapping his chain around its neck. Star ran at it and stood on its chest and crossed his swords together and held it at the middle head.
"End it!" Jasper shouted and sliced the right head off, Star sliced the middle off and Ike pulled on his chain hard and it set on fire burning the head. Star jumped off the body as it started to wither away. "We...did it." Ike said.
Star watched as the body withered away then his eyes spotted something...a lottle ball with a tail? He picked it up and his eyes widened "umm...guys. you might want to see this." He said.
Ike and Jasper walked up to him and their eyes widened as well "is that...?"
"...a seekling." Jasper continued Ike's question.
Ike held up an empty jar and Star put it in there and closed the lid "how did it get here?" Star asked.
"Must have cane with is when we were summoned to this world." Jasper answered.
Meanwhile, on a hill overlooking the village, a figure stands there. He smiles showing his sharp fangs then turns and walks away.
Timeskip~
A bullhead had arrived to pick up team CFVY and professor Port. "Thank you for your aid."
Johnathon smiled with Ike, Amber, Jasper and Star next to him "it was a pleasure Professor."
Port nodded and looked at the boys and Amber "and thank you for dealing with that...grimm."
"Yeah nice going." Coco said.
"No worries!" Star said.
"Hmm...say. have you four ever considered becoming Hunters and a huntress for you Amber?" Port asked.
"Hunters?" Star said.
"Huntress?" Amber said. She really hadn't thoight of that. She went to Signal to make her weapon as required but she gave up on the thought of becoming a huntress when her brother went to work for...them.
Port smiled: "yes. If you are interested. You four could join the academy."
The boys and Amber looked at eachother for a moment before turning to Port "well...we'll consider it." Star said.
Port nodded and held a card out for the boy to take "when your minds are made up. Please contact us."
Star took the card and put it in his pocket. Port and team CFVY began to board the bullhead and took off.
Afterwards at night. Star, Ike, Amber and Jasper sat around a fire, Jasper held the jar with the seekling inside. "So...this is one of the things that are after you?" Amber asked.
"Yeah...one of them...but it's harmless in this stage. But can possess any animal or creature on the edge of circuming to the darkness.
"Oh...its so cute tho." Amber said tapping the glass which was met with the seekling smacking its head on the glass.
Star looked at the card Professor Port left him "...the offer that guy peft us is tempting...but should we do it?" He said.
"...I see where your coming from. We all don't want to endanger other people." Ike said.
"Yeah...but guys think about this, its not everyday a student is allowed not to mention be asked to join beacon academy." Amber said.
"This academy sounds like it has quite a reputation." Jasper said putting the jar down.
"It does. Beacon academy is a school for people who wish to become hunters or huntress's. The headmaster of the acdemy is professor Ozpin. People say he's as mysterious as they come...to be honest I want to go after seeing those students in battle. Even though they did get rekt."
The boys looked at each other "I'm sorry Amber, but like I said before. Ww have dangerous people after us...so we're going to just wander this world." Jasper said.
Amber looked down sadly. Then an idea popped into her head "yeah I guess your right...however. if I remember correctly. You guys said that these...seekers took over your world right?" The boys heads perked up and they looked at her "y'know it would be a shame if they came here and they were to...I don't know. Take over this world too. And also. How would we know how to defeat them? We'd be powerless against them...unless you three could teach us how to~" she looked back at them with a smile.
They sat there for a good ten seconds before Star sighed and got up "your really good at convincing y'know that?...I'm in." He said.
"Thank you~ and yay!" She said.
Ike stood up "I'm in too! Lets do this!" He exclaimed.
They looked at Jasper who had a blank face for a moment then sighed and got up "very well. But only cause they'd be worthless without us." He said lookong away.
"Then its settled! We leave for beacon tommorow!"
Ike pulled out his flask and opened the lid "cheers!" He said.
Jasper sighed and picked up the jar with the seekling in it "..cheers." when the jar and the flask connected, the jar broke and the seekling fell into the fire burning alive.
Alright! There is chapter 2 for yoi guys. Hope you enjoy and
...Until next time ;)
