*Adam, Jenkins and Melody are currently checking the security system for the source of the static.*
Adam: What the hell was all that static about?
Melody: The hell if I know, but that was weird.
Jenkins: Did anyone else notice the weird message in the static?
Adam: No, was there a message?
Melody: Yeah, I did actually. Was it written in German?
Jenkins: Yeah, it was. Anyway, let's see how the reading group is doing.
Before Nora began to read, Tronmaster got up to say something.
"Alright, I have some answers courtesy of Phoenix Champion to the questions you had last chapter." Tronmaster said, "First, Esthar is essentially your classic future city. Hell, Galbadian Machines and soldiers were considered pushovers compared to Esthar machines. Some of which were designed with the ability to use certain Blue Magic Spells." Tronmaster said.
"Holy shit." Qrow said.
"And to what the Lunatic Pandora was, it was a massive floating structure built by Esthar under the orders of its president, Sorceress Adel, who let's just say, she's an example of just how badly shit will hit the fan when a Sorceress becomes corrupted by their power. Said Lunatic Pandora was built to induce Lunar Cry's as a weapon, this is possible as Lunatic Pandora was built around an object known as the Crystal Pillar." Alicia said.
"And before you ask, a Lunar Cry is a natural phenomenon that is when the various species of Monster from FF8 fall from the moon to the planet, resulting in massive destruction capable of wiping out civilizations." Tronmaster said.
"Wait, what!?" Weiss shouted.
"But your others don't need to worry about that, since Remnant's moon was shattered, Lunar Cry's have stopped occurring." Alicia said, finishing for Tronmaster.
"Oh, cool." Nora said, beginning to read.
[No P.O.V.]
[Unnamed forest]
"Really? Just some random forest?" Penny asked.
"It's probably got some sort of magical significance." Blake said, "By the way, what's with the machine in Mountain Glenn?"
"Spoilers." Tronmaster said cheekily.
Musaline stood in the center of a small clearing within the forest, in front of her was a large rune, within that rune was the armor she had recovered from the Esthar supply station, now melded back together, which now appeared to be a full suit of armor, the helmet being the only thing that stood out sharply being black with two large horns on it.
"Oh Oum, that's some huge armor!" Glynda said, shocked.
"That helmet though..." Raven said, shivering.
"Any bets on if it belongs to a Guardian Force?" Yang asked.
The Guardian Forces all just looked at the armor in shock, realizing who the owner of the armor is.
Behind Musaline stood a pair of SAM08G's, large blue and green bipedal machines that appeared to be crocodilian in nature, with a pair of missile pods on it's shoulders.
"Wow, talk about a couple of killer crocs." Yang said, Tai laughing, and everyone else groaning.
"Dammit Yang." Tronmaster mumbled.
"Now then." Musaline said lifting up a silver case she brought with her, "The smith's did a good job recreating this weapon, seeing as finding the original would take far too much time and resources."
"I wonder what weapon she's referring to." Winter mused to herself.
Musaline opened the case to reveal a sword within it. A steel blade that looked like a scimitar that had a longer blade melded to the front of the blade.
"Wow, that's a huge-ass blade." Jaune said in awe.
"Yep. that blade belongs to someone who our resident GFs are familiar with." Alicia said with a knowing smirk.
The Zantetsuken, or at least a weapon that was forged to serve as the Zantetsuken for it's soon to be revived master.
"Oh boy, whoever owned that blade must've been really strong." Summer said.
"Yeah, to wield that thing, they must've had some serious upper body strength." Tai said.
Musaline stabbed the sword into the ground next to the armor.
"Now then." Musaline said, "It's time for you to rejoin this world.. Odin."
"Holy shit, she's planning on reviving old armor-face, isn't she?" Diablos asked.
"Winner, winner, chicken dinner." Tronmaster said, smiling.
"Damn, that's pretty big." Siren said.
"No kidding." Pandemona agreed.
[Beacon: Team RWBY's Dorm.]
"Oh boy, I wonder what's going down in our dorm." Yang said.
"Can someone explain why your leader looks like this?" Winter asked as Weiss and Blake began to pluck needles out of the young leader.
"Damn Cactuar." Ruby mumbled.
"Yeah, that annoying son of a bitch is quite infuriating." Tronmaster growled.
"It's that stupid Cactuar's fault." Ruby said with a pout.
"The what?" Winter asked.
"A Cactuar." Blake said, "Basically imagine a moving cactus that is really fast."
"And is a total troll." Alicia said venomously.
"And so slippery." Ruby pouted, "He tricked me into slamming into a wall with my Semblance before turning me into a pincushion."
"And I had my armor's power shields up too." Tronmaster mumbled.
"It's ok babe, I hate Cactuar too." Alicia said, kissing Tronmaster on the cheek.
"Did you actually hit a wall hard enough to shatter your own Aura?" Winter asked starting to wonder about this girl, and not in a good way.
"Nope, it's because that prickly little green bastard's needles can bypass Aura completely." Tronmaster said.
"No a Cactuar's needles can somehow bypass Aura completely." Weiss said cringing slightly, "I know from experience."
"Oh, yeah, that happened." Weiss said, cringing like her other.
"Stupid walking cactus." Tronmaster mumbled in annoyance.
Winter's eyebrow went up at that, "Weiss... can we take a walk?" She asked.
"I have a feeling I know what it's about." Yang said, smirking.
"Aunt Yang, don't be gross." Alicia deadpanned, "Or do I need to share your deepest, darkest secret?" She added with a knowing smirk.
"I'll stop! I'll stop!" Yang said in a panic.
Weiss stopped, holding a needle while she was in the middle of pulling it out. "Uh... sure." Weiss said over Ruby's repeated 'Ow'.
"What was Yang's panic attack about?' Blake asked Alicia.
"I'll tell you after the chapter." Alicia said chuckling.
"Weiss... can you pull the needle out already?" Ruby cried.
Weiss's head snapped back to Ruby and quickly pulled out the needle, "Sorry." Weiss said before standing up and walking out of the room with Winter.
"Ouch. I really don't want to get near that thing." Ren said, cringing.
"You really don't." Tronmaster said.
Winter and Weiss walked along the outskirts of Vale, but still within the walls, Winter wearing her cast so she can pose as still having a broken arm.
"Rather clever." Weiss said.
"Thank you Weiss." Winter said, smirking.
"So Weiss..." Winter said, a smirk growing on her face, "Anyone catch your eye?"
"W-W-Winter!" Weiss said, blushing.
"Hey, my other's allowed to have fun, isn't she?" Winter said chuckling.
Shiva started to snicker at what Winter was getting at.
"You're a damn traitor Shiva!" Weiss said, burying her head into Ruby's shoulder from embarrassment.
Shiva's response was just laughter.
"What do you.." Weiss said before her eyes went wide, "Winter!" She shouted turning red.
"Is that a yes?" Winter asked.
"I- There-" Weiss stammered, "I'm not saying anything."
"Smart move other me." Weiss said, her head now resting on Ruby's shoulder.
"Oh there's someone." Shiva said now visible to Winter when translucent, "In fact there's-"
"Oh man, why was I interrupted?" Shiva asked, calming down from her fit of laughter.
"I guess we'll find out soon." Neptune said.
Shiva was cut off when a skinny, and admittedly messy man ran up in front of the two, "You two, PLEASE tell me you're Huntresses." The man begged, apparently not noticing Winter's 'Broken' arm.
"Wow, you're either in such a hurry, or you're an idiot to not notice that." Tai said.
"Too true." Ifrit said.
"Well... I'm a Huntress in Training while-"Weiss started.
"Close enough." The man said falling to his knees, "Please tell me you'll help me!"
"Okay, that's WAY too close for comfort." Winter said.
"Yeah, no kidding." Weiss said.
"That depends on what you need help with." Winter said backing away slightly.
"Yeah, that really IS too close for comfort." Winter said.
"No kidding." Yang said.
"My house is haunted, haunted I tell you!" The man cried, "I-I inherited this mansion from my grandpa, but every time I go into it I feel like I'm being watched, and there are these creepy dolls that I know are staring at me."
"Oh great, a creepy-ass manor." Jaune said.
"It's quite the cliché." Penny said.
"How do you know that?" Weiss asked getting a little disturbed.
"Those... THING'S heads turn and follow me every time I enter a room with them in it!" The man cried, "Please, helped me!"
"Wow, that sounds pretty haunted." Nora said.
"It's probably a Geist." Glynda said.
"It's probably something else." Raven countered.
"Sounds like some sort of possessor..." Winter said, "We'll check it out."
"THANK YOU!" The man shouted, "Key's are under the statuette on the railing."
"Okay..." Ruby said, weirded out.
"He's a weirdo." Yang said.
The Schnee sister's arrived at the mansion, which actually looked well kept, if a little dusty.
"Yeah, no kidding. I've got a serious dust allergy." Tronmaster said, before sneezing.
"He's not even anywhere near dust!" Alicia said.
The statuette stood out well enough, in fact, it actually caught Shiva's eye because it was a statue of someone rather familiar to her.
"Wait, it does?" Qrow asked.
"Holy shit. Is that Bahamut?" Diablos asked.
"Who?" Jaune asked.
"He's the king of the Guardian Forces. I think." Tronmaster said, "I honestly don't know."
"Shiva?" Weiss asked.
Shiva shook her head slightly, "Sorry, I just never thought I'd see a statuette of Bahamut." Shiva said tracing her fingers along the side of the dragon statuette, "He was a bit of a recluse, even choosing to live far out in the sea that no one would bother him."
"Really?" Pyrrha asked.
"Oh yeah, and, I think the story will explain something better than I could." Shiva said.
"Who's Bahamut?" Winter asked.
Shiva looked at the two sisters before smiling softly, "A Guardian Force, and the undisputed King of Dragons, and the King of the GF's even." Shiva said before looking around, "But don't let anyone else hear this, but Bahamut actually a bit of a softie when it comes to girls, he just can't seem to get angry enough against them sometimes."
"Aww, he sounds so sweet." Ruby said.
"Agreed, I hope we get to meet him someday." Summer said.
"Seriously?" Weiss asked in deadpan.
"Oh yeah." Shiva said chuckling, "He would act like a little hatchling whenever a girl started yelling in his general direction, and he rarely raised a claw to a woman unless they were the enemy of the person he was Junctioned to."
"He sounds rather sweet." Pyrrha said.
"He's actually a nice conversationalist." Tronmaster said.
"I'll keep that in mind." Weiss said before grabbing the key from under the statuette and unlocking the door to the house.
Which slammed shut as soon as the sisters walked in.
"And, cue the cliché." Jaune joked.
"Oh boy." Weiss said.
"What the..." Winter said removing her cast and drawing her sabre, Weiss drawing Myrtenaster.
"Looks like they've entered the Foyer." Penny said.
"Okay so... we're in the Foyer right now." Weiss said looking around the mansion, "Where should we start looking?"
"Let's try this way." Winter said opening a door on the eastern side of the mansion.
A short trip through the hallway later, and the duo found themselves in the library.
"And now, we've got a creepy library." Raven said, rolling her eyes.
"Hey, every haunted mansion needs a creepy-ass library." Alicia said, shrugging.
And sitting in the middle of the room was a porcelain doll the size of Weiss, with blonde hair, blue eye's, and a blue frilly dress.
"Oh great, it's Annabelle's creepy-ass cousin, Daisy." Alicia joked, earning a few laughs.
"Yep, we just found one half of the twins from the Shinning." Tronmaster added, earning more laughs.
"There's something... very strange about that doll." Shiva said fully manifesting and approaching the doll.
"Ah hahaha." A young voice called out, making the sister's jump, especially because the doll's head lifted up, "Who are you? The monsters don't like strangers."
"Okay, that's unsettling." Weiss said, only for the laughter of a young girl to echo around the room.
"As is that." Ruby added, cuddling her girlfriend out of fear, "What the hell was that?!"
"You'll find out soon." Tronmaster said, chuckling darkly.
With that the doll vanished.
"Monster's?" Winter asked, just before a spear of ice flew from Shiva's hand past Winter's head.
"Holy shit!" Winter shouted, jumping out of her seat and onto Qrow's lap.
"Hey there Snowflake." Qrow said, smirking.
This caused Weiss and Winter to turn around with speed to see the spear had lodged itself in something.
"Oh boy, it better not be a ghost." Jaune said.
"It probably is." Yang said, causing Jaune to turn as white as, well, a ghost.
It looked like a shadow that had peeled itself off the floor, no legs, a thin body, long arms with four fingers on each hand, three of which were extremely long, it had two red dots for eyes and a toothy grin.
"So, it's not a Geist, but what the hell is it?" Glynda asked.
"A Grimm?" Winter asked as the creature looked as if it were being pulled back by the tail and collapsed, trying to take one swipe at the two before vanishing and dissolving.
"No." Shiva said, "It's an old creature called a Creeps, something from before the Grimm, they're Thunder elemented creatures so don't use any electricity."
"So, don't sic Nora on it." Alexander joked.
Weiss looked at the ground around the area the Creeps had once been, and noticed a single spike on the ground, "What's this?" Weiss asked picking up the spike.
"I have a feeling that the spike has something to do with Weiss and her Blue Magic." Neptune said.
"Probably." Sun said, shrugging.
"A Cursed Spike." Shiva said grinning, "A Blue Magic item that teaches those capable of Blue Magic a spell called Lvl? Death, which is like a regular Death Spell, but it targets all enemies in the area at once."
"Area of Effect spell." Tronmaster said, grinning sadistically.
"You like to grin sadistically, don't you?" Raven asked, earning a nod from Tronmaster.
"Wow." Weiss said absorbing the spike.
"Um, can I get this spell?" Weiss asked.
"I'll see what I can do." Tronmaster replied, making Weiss nod in response.
The next Room the sisters found themselves in was the study, where they found another doll, which looked exactly the same as the first, but in a red dress.
"There's something about those dolls." Raven said, as more laughing is heard, causing her to shudder.
"Seriously, what the hell is that?" Sun asked, slightly frightened.
The doll's head slowly lifted itself, "The monsters loved it when we were told stories." The childish voice said before it giggled ad the doll vanished...
"Evil doll!" Ruby said, hiding her body in her cloak, Weiss following suit.
"Yeah, that's pretty disturbing." Alicia said.
And was quickly replaced by a pair of Creeps (Not the Grimm, in fact, there are no Grimm in ths mansion to avoid any possible confusion okay? Okay.)
"Well, that was random." Penny said, laughing lightly.
Weiss quickly stabbed one of the Creeps with her rapier through the creature's head, before slashing and jumping back, Winter slicing through the other one with similar ease.
Both Creeps died off, both leaving behind Cursed Spikes.
"I have a feeling that there's going to be a lot of those things." Tai groaned.
"Gather those spike." Shiva said, "We need one hundred of them to refine into an item to teach Weiss one of the most powerful Blue Magic Spells."
"Ugh, fetch quests. I hate those." Jaune groaned.
"Amen dude." Alicia said.
Weiss nodded and grabbed both Spikes and put them in a pouch she normally used to keep empty vials of Dust, she can get a new pouch for the spikes later.
"Seems like something I need to do." Weiss said to herself.
The duo then went into the Master bedroom, finding another blue dressed doll, though this one was laying on the bed.
"Creepy-ass dolls." Qrow said, shuddering.
"Eeeevil dolls." Ruby said.
The doll then lifted itself into a standing position, "Hehehehe." The doll giggled before vanishing, and being replaced by single Creeps.
It didn't last very long, leaving behind another Cursed Spike.
"I'm beginning to not like these dolls." Sun said, only to be hit by a flying book.
"The fuck was that?" Neptune asked himself.
The Schnee's then walked carefully into the in-house gym, which held two red dressed dolls.
"More of those damn dolls!?" Yang said, slowly getting more frightened.
"This shit is getting really freaky." Blake said.
The two dolls then slid off the exercise equipment in the room.
"What the fuck?" Penny said, shivering in fear, as more childish laughter is heard.
"Okay, whoever is laughing, KNOCK IT THE FUCK OFF!" Summer said, yelling the last part.
"Look, new people to play with." a childish voice came from one doll.
"I know, let's go dance." came an identical voice from the other doll.
"What the hell is wrong with this franchise!?" Neptune shouted.
"I think that question can be asked for Japan as a whole." Alicia said.
"A beautiful country, if slightly fucked in the head." Tronmaster added.
With that they vanished and were replaced by a pair of Creeps, which went down easily.
However instead of two Cursed Spikes, what was left behind was a cursed Spike and a piece of coral.
"A Coral Fragment." Shiva said, "Another object for Blue magic, this one holding the power of Electrocute."
"Jeez Weiss, you're just learning new Blue Magic this chapter, aren't ya?" Jaune asked.
"I am, aren't I? And, I'm automatically learning these spells as the chapter goes on, aren't I?" Weiss asked.
"Well I didn't want to spoil anything." Tronmaster mumbled.
Weiss eagerly absorbed the coral piece and the two sisters made their way to where they thought there would be a ballroom.
"Why do I get the feeling like a boss fight coming up?" Sun asked.
"Cause there probably IS a boss fight coming up." Yang said.
After a slight misdirection that resulted in finding the kitchen, and then the bathroom, the two sisters found themselves in the surprisingly large ballroom.
"Now this is a boss fight room if I've ever seen one." Winter said.
"Yep. Although I didn't see any health items before you entered." Tronmaster joked.
Standing in the middle of the room was a blue dressed doll, which was looking at them, gazing directly at them.
"EEEEVIL!" Ruby and Weiss shouted, hugging each other.
"Seriously, that's just disturbing." Pyrrha said.
"You found us all." The doll said, causing two more blue dressed dolls, and three dressed dolls to appear.
"What the hell are you?" Winter demanded as she and Weiss readied their weapons.
"I have a feeling we're going to find out soon." Penny said.
[FF4 OST: Dancing Calcabrina]
Suddenly, the music started up, playing a 16-bit horror-esque song.
"Um, what the hell?" Sun asked.
"So, Calcabrina is this thing's name." Glynda said.
The dolls all spoke in perfect synch, "We are Calcabrina," The dolls said sounding in one voice, "Adorable dolls, terrible dolls, Yip ho ho."
"Finally, we appear." Said Calcabrina, appearing in the room.
"Meep." Jaune said, sinking in his seat.
At that moment one of the dolls leapt at Weiss, causing her to jump back as the doll swung at her when it landed.
"I'll agree with the terrible part." Weiss said casting Blizzard, causing a chunk of ice to slam down on the dolls head, causing it to stumble.
The other dolls soon jumped in to fight.
"Man, those dolls are resilient." Neptune said, before being hit by one of the dolls.
Winter quickly summoned an Alpha Beowolf with her Glyphs, which distracted the three red dolls easily.
"Evil ice wolf." Calcabrina said.
Weiss soon found herself being double teamed by two of the blue dolls, but could easily begin holding her own against the two once she had cast a Haste spell on herself.
"Another Guardian Force is helping her." One of the dolls said, "We haven't seen another of us in so long."
"Wait, are you a Guardian Force?" Summer asked Calcabrina.
"Not originally, no." Calcabrina replied.
"If you noticed, the song is from Final Fantasy IV. This is one of the FF bosses that Phoenix Champion turned into GFs for this story." Alicia explained.
"Another of us?" Winter asked, "Are you all Guardian Forces as well?"
Instead of answering the Dolls all shifted their focus to Weiss and jumped at her.
"Man, you are terrifying." Neptune said.
However the dolls were caught off guard when a golden glow burst up like fire from Weiss's feet, "Ultra Waves." Weiss said with the arms cross, before throwing them out, this resulted in rings of energy beginning to wriggle out of Weiss's body in four different directions.
The sound however caused all six of the dolls to tumble over in an instant just before the spell ended.
"Holy shit." All of Team RWBY said.
"Damn." Said all of Team JNPR.
"Oum." Team STRQ said.
"Ladies and gentlemen, that was Blue Magic." Tronmaster said.
Weiss stumbled slightly from the sheer output of power she just released, "So that was Blue magic..." Weiss breathed.
"Yeah, no kidding. That's pretty damn powerful." Qrow said.
"Magic is so broken." Pyrrha said, chuckling.
"Blue Magic..." One of the dolls said getting back up, "We haven't seen that in so long."
The six dolls all jumped to make a circle around the center of the room and began jumping to spin the circle they had made.
"We're not done though." Another doll said.
"Now we really have some fun." Yet another doll said just before they jumped into each other, colliding in a cloud of purple smoke.
"Time we do that." One of the dolls said, as they did the same thing.
[FF8: Force your way]
The music changed, causing most of the readers to sigh in relief.
When the cloud vanished, there stood a single, towering, purple doll with blonde hair, it had shed the clothing to reveal it had no feature other than that of the average porcelain doll.
As the smoke cleared, what appeared, was not what was in the story, rather, Calcabrina took the form of a young, seventeen-year old girl, wearing a purple dress.
"Huh, I wasn't expecting that." Tronmaster mumbled.
"Huh, weird. I never thought I'd look, normal. Hey Neptune, what do ya think?" Calcabrina said, winking at Neptune, said blue-haired boy turning as red as his jacket.
"Oh brother." Alicia said, facepalming.
"You have got to be kidding me!" Winter shouted, just before Calcabrina smashed the Summoned A. Beowolf with it's hand.
"Protect." Weiss intoned casting the spell on herself, and another on her sister.
"Nice strategy Weiss." Tronmaster said, "Way to allocate magic for-CALCABRINA! STOP GLOMPING NEPTUNE!" He added, yelling at the new Guardian Force.
"NEVER!" Calcabrina shouted, making out with Neptune.
"What the fuck?" Yang said in confusion.
'Jesus Christ, I didn't expect this to happen.' Tronmaster thought, his eye twitching.
Shiva then appeared in full form once again, "You're not fighting GF by yourself." Shiva said.
"How are we supposed to defeat a GF anyway?" Weiss cried out, "You told me killing one is nearly impossible."
"You don't have to beat this GF, just impress it." Shiva said before casting a Blizzaga Spell, causing a massive chunk of Ice to suddenly appear around Calcabrina before shattering.
"Speaking of which, where did her and Neptune go?" Sun asked, and indeed, both Calcabrina and Neptune had disappeared.
"Oh, Jesus Christ. Alicia, continue here, I'm going to find the two horny kids and drag them back here." Tronmaster said, heading to the elevator, "Teenagers." He added under his breath, as the elevator closed.
Calcabrina lumbered forward and attempted to smash Weiss and Winter with her hands, but the two were just fast enough to avoid the attack.
Winter jumped in to stab the doll in the leg, freezing it with ice Dust, Weiss doing the same with the other leg, and Shiva casting a Blizzard spell to give the doll some head trauma.
"Man, how log does it take for someone to find two people having sex?" Yang asked.
"Who knows." Alicia said, shrugging.
Calcabrina however did not seem all too phased by this and simple smashed the ice on her legs and tried to body slam Shiva, who quickly froze the area in front of her, along with part of the doll.
"Man, this is actually tense." Tai said.
"Yeah, no kidding." Qrow said, "Seriously, those two must have some serious stamina to be going for so long."
"I swear I can hear moaning." Blake said, only to receive a death glare from Alicia.
Winter and Weiss took this opportunity to stab the doll in the back with their weapons before leaping off.
"Fire!" Weiss called out casting the spell, causing a small burst of fire to hurt the doll slightly, but also soaking it in melted ice.
"You're quite the doll Weiss." Yang punned, earning another laugh from Tai, and groans from everyone else.
"Goddammit Aunt Yang." Alicia mumbled.
Then the golden energy burst forth from Weiss's feet again, more Blue Magic, "Electrocute." Weiss said throwing her arms open again, this time letting arc's of electricity surge from her chest and strike the doll where it was wet.
"Quite the clever strategy Ms. Schnee, soaking the doll with water, then using the Electrocute spell to harm it." Glynda said, smiling.
"Thank you Professor Goodwitch." Weiss said, smiling herself.
"Such power." Calcabrina said falling to her knees and slumping over, before looking at the sisters, "We've been hold up here too long it seems, may we join you?"
[OST End]
As the song ended, Tronmaster stepped out of the elevator, with a visibly red Neptune, with an equally red Calcabrina, who was wearing nothing except a purple towel.
"Holy shit, you guys missed the rest of the fight." Sun said.
"What happened to your dress?" Penny asked Calcabrina.
"I'd rather not talk about it." Calcabrina replied, her face turning a deeper red.
"Damn, I never knew someone's face could turn that shade of red." Raven said.
Weiss and Winter let out a sigh of relief, because of the simple fact the doll was done attacking them.
"How'd I do?" Calcabrina asked, holding her towel.
"Rather well, actually." Shiva said, Weiss had to use another Blue Magic spell."
"Badass." Calcabrina said, smiling like a madwoman.
"Winter, you can let her Junction with you." Weiss said.
"Wait, is that why you're here?" Winter asked Calcabrina.
"Pretty much. Truth be told, I was expecting to turn into my other form, not, the body that got me laid." Calcabrina said, ending her sentence seductively.
"Jeez, was I like that as a teenager?" Alicia asked.
"Hey, I wouldn't doubt it." Tronmaster replied.
Winter looked at Weiss in surprise, "You're the one who did the most damage to her though." Winter said.
"Yes, but I've already got Shiva while you have no one." Weiss said, "Please, take this GF with you."
Winter nodded and approached the doll before gingerly holding out her hand, which the doll took, "We'll be good friends right?" Calcabrina asked.
"We'll be great friends." Winter said, holding out her hand, which Calcabrina took, and soon, Calcabrina was Junctioned with Winter.
"Are you gonna explain why I'm not a huge-ass porcelain doll?" Calcabrina asked Tronmaster.
"Honestly? I don't have a damn clue. Best guess, you now have a form that blends in easier." Tronmaster replied, shrugging.
"Hey, I ain't complaining." Calcabrina said, smiling at Neptune, who smiled back.
Weiss and Winter stepped out of the mansion, Winter putting her cast back on, and soon bumped into the man who had asked them to investigate.
"Damn, and I thought I was a hot mess." Calcabrina and Yang punned at the same time.
"Oh son of a bitch, now there's three of them." Summer, Raven, Qrow ad Glynda groaned.
"Well?" The man asked.
"A few Gheist's had chosen to move into your new home." Winter said, preparing this lie after she had Junctioned Calcabrina, "We took care of them, but the dolls were destroyed in the process."
"Hey, the dolls weren't that bad were they?" Calcabrina asked.
"Eh, sorry girl, they were kinda creepy." Yang said apologetically.
"Good riddance, those things were disturbing." The man said, "Thanks again."
"Well, fuck you too dude." Neptune said, defending Winter's new Guardian Force/his girlfriend.
"I know my name is Siren, but come on girl, show some decency." Siren said, causing a few snickers.
"Hi pot, I'm kettle, have we met?" Calcabrina said sarcastically.
"Happy to help." Weiss said as the man walked into his home without fear.
Calcabrina, at least a blue dressed doll, appeared behind Winter translucently along with Shiva, "It will be good to see the world again." Calcabrina said, "Let's get going!"
"Same here!" Calcabrina said, pumping one fist into the air.
"We're seriously going to need to get her some clothes soon." Glynda said, "I'd rather not have her towel suddenly come off."
"Way ahead of you." Tronmaster said, requesting some clothes for Calcabrina.
[With Musaline]
"Great, back with the witch." Summer said, bitterly.
"Huh?" Calcabrina asked, confused, considering she wasn't given a full briefing.
"Main antagonist." Ruby mouthed to her, Calcabrina making an 'O' face in realization.
Musaline finished her chant, causing a massive glow to surge out from the ground in front of her.
"Excellent." Musaline said with a smirk.
"Great, she's revived Odin, now she's going to try and Junction with him." Sun said.
"Yeah, knowing old armor-face though, he's gonna refuse." Diablos said.
"Yeah, he's always been kind of an ass." Ifrit added, earning a few laughs.
The glow faded, ad a hand pulled the replicated Zantetsuken from the ground.
"Holy shit, he's really handy." Yang said.
"Dammit Yang." Blake said.
The being who grabbed it looked remarkably human, and wore the repaired armor, as well as a flowing cape, he sat on a six legged horse.
"Um, what?" Weiss asked, laughing.
"Yeah, the name, and overall look of Odin comes from the king of the gods in Norse mythology." Tronmaster said.
"Huh, cool." Jaune said.
The being looked at the sword before a brief glow coated it, enchanting it to be the same as his old one.
"The Legendary Guardian Force, welcome back to the world of the living." Musaline said bowing with her arms spread, "Odin."
"Kiss-ass." Ruby said, earning a snort from her mother.
"Good one." Weiss said, giving Ruby a quick peck on the lips.
The now properly named Odin looked toward Musaline and her SAM08G's.
"Knowing old horny, he's probably thinking of something." Pandemona said.
"Oh, big time." Quezacotl agreed.
"I ask that you junction your power with that of mine." Musaline said, a wicked grin growing on her face.
"No." Odin said.
That response proceeded to get laughter out of the Guardian Forces, Calcabrina included.
"Ah, never change Odin." Shiva said, "Never change."
Musaline's grin faded, and she looked up in time to see Odin raise Zantetsuken.
"Cut her damn head off!" Pyrrha shouted.
Musaline gasped and jumped out of the way as Odin's horse, Sleipnir jumped toward the remaining two living weapons of the NG army.
"Damn!" Pyrrha swore.
"Jesus Pyrrha, what the shit?" Alicia asked.
The sound of three slashes were heard just before Musaline looked up from her recovery roll.
The two SAM08G's were sliced diagonally in half and the top half sliding down before the machine part's exploded in a small blast, destroying the organic parts in the process.
"Hot damn, he's powerful." Tai said.
"The Zantetsuken allows someone to utilize the sword technique of the same name." Tronmaster said.
"Dad uses that fighting style, and he taught me it." Alicia added.
"Do not think that by bringing me back to the world of the living means I will inherently aid you Sorceress." Odin said turning to face Musaline, "Consider the fact I'm letting you live be a sign of my thanks."
"Good old fashioned sass courtesy of Odin." Diablos said, chuckling.
On that note Odin reached Sleipnir and rode off into the forest.
Musaline stood up and dusted herself off before looking in the direction Odin went.
"Fuck!" Musaline shouted kicking aside the case that once held the Zantetsuken made in Galbadian Gardens.
"Sore loser." Qrow joked as Nora passed the book to Pyrrha.
"Nice, now where the hell-" Calcabrina started before a pile of clothing suddenly appeared on her lap, "Nevermind." She finished, getting up, just as the towel fell off.
"Looking away now." Tronmaster said, turning his head to the side, same with everyone save Neptune.
"Ugh, really dude?" Sun asked in irritation.
*Adam is looking down in shame as Jenkins and Melody are passed out with nosebleeds.*
Adam: Fucking hell guys, just like Blake with her damn smut. No one can keep themselves under control.
