The four of them walked and talked until they saw mountains in front of them.
"Holy…" Ruby quietly said. "These mountains are… huge! Probably bigger than Icicle Mountain!"
"Oh please, it felt like Icicle Mountain was bigger than this. What's the name of these mountains anyway?" Weiss asked as they spotted a sign.
"Welcome to the Rock Candy Mines! Hope you have a great time… and try not to fall to your doom. Mind the Monty Moles… and the Bullet Bill Blasters."
"…What's a Monty Mole?" Blake asked.
"My guess, it could be some kind of naked mole rat." Yang said.
"Ew…" Ruby groaned.
"What? I was joking…"
"Suuuure you were." Weiss said as they walked forward.
Yang sighed. "Someone's gotta appreciate my humor…" She muttered as she caught up to the rest.
World 6-1: Scaling a Mountain
BGM: Overworld (New Super Mario Bros U)
As they started scaling the mountain, they noticed a few Spikes greeting them by throwing spiked balls at them, forcing them to dodge as Yang quickly got Ember Celecia ready and fired, hitting the Spikes to knock them unconscious as they kept walking forward.
They soon noticed a Wiggler minding its own business as it ate a few flowers and happily walked forward. "Oh my gosh, that's so cute!" Ruby exclaimed as she ran forward and got in the Wiggler's way. "You are so adorable!" She said, happily petting it as the Wiggler smiled and kept walking.
"That's the ugliest caterpillar I've ever seen." Weiss said, as the Wiggler stopped walking and turned to her, glaring at her. "What? It's the truth, you giant oversized bug!"
Wiggler's eyes twitched and slowly, very slowly, started to turn red and steam was coming out of his nose, then proceeded to charge right at her.
"Whoa, incoming!" Yang exclaimed as Weiss and Blake quickly jumped away, as Weiss hoped it'd slam into a wall, but Wiggler made a sharp turn and went back to Weiss.
"Hey, what did I ever do to you?!" Weiss asked as she tried to run away from Wiggler as the other three watched the whole thing unfold, until Weiss had enough and stabbed Myrtenaster on the ground, creating a blanket of ice on the ground as the Wiggler stepped on the ice and slid as it tried to turn around, but slipped… and fell into a deep chasm down below as they looked down.
"…It's going to be okay, right?" Yang asked... and was answered with a loud 'thud'.
"Nope…" Blake said.
"Aww… I loved that big guy… he was so cute." Ruby sighed as they proceeded to keep walking, where they noticed Monty Moles coming out of the ground and some of them were chucking rocks at them, while a few of them were waving at them all friendly like.
"Aaaah! Why are they throwing rocks?!" Yang asked.
"I have no idea, but it's annoying!" Weiss complained.
"We need to stop them." Blake said.
"Way ahead of you!" Yang said, jumping up and then punching the ground hard enough for all the Monty Moles to launch out of their holes as they landed in the crater, then the four of them proceeded to keep walking, as all of the Monty Moles were thinking the same thing: What the hell just happened?
Soon, they came to a clearing on the mountain after dealing with some pesky Monty Moles and Spikes, but as soon as they did… the Mario enemies stopped attacking them.
End BGM
"Why did they just stop attacking?" Ruby wondered. "I don't think we're near the flagpole yet… right?"
"I… don't know." Weiss said. "…Unless…"
"We're about to be ambushed." Blake quickly said as the four of them had their weapons ready… and then several Ursa, Beowolves, a few Boarbatusks, and a few Creepers jumped from the cliffs and landed in front of them.
"Alright, you just signed your death warrants!" Yang said, cocking Ember Celecia.
BGM: Boss Battle 1 (Super Smash Bros Brawl/Wii U)
The Beowolves ran over along with the Ursa and proceeded to attack them, but they dodged the attacks as Yang used an uppercut on an Ursa to knock it into the air, as she then jumped up and punched it in the gut, sending it down and flattening a Creeper in the process.
Weiss made a few glyphs and then launched icicles at an Ursa, but it simply blocked with its arm, taking the icicles like a trooper and ran forward, roaring at her and slashing her, but Weiss jumped back and ran forward, impaling the Ursa in the gut. "Ruby!"
"Got it!" Ruby ran over and slashed the Ursa's head off, then proceeding to use her semblance to knock over a few Boarbatusks where Blake jumped over them and stabbing them in the process, then a Beowolf tried to bite Ruby, but Yang ran over and punched it in the head to knock it into the wall, then fired from her gauntlets to completely destroy it.
During the fights, something slithered over to them, looking mighty hungry, and it was getting closer to them.
It was soon that all the Grimm were defeated as the four of them put their weapons away and started to walk away, but something roared as they turned over to see a King Taijitu hissing at them, forcing them to get in their battle stances again.
"HAAAAAAAH!" A voice yelled, catching the four's attention as something landed on top of the King Taijitu's head. They saw a blue jackal-like creature with spikes coming out of its paws and chest, and it was charging up a blue energy ball of something coming from the paw, then it hit the King Taijitu, as it hissed in pain as the creature jumped over and landed in front of RWBY.
The King Taijitu glared at the creature and proceeded to chomp down, but it disappeared as its fangs got stuck in the ground, then the creature got on top of it again. "Force Palm!" He said, using it repeatedly until the King Taijitu was destroyed.
End BGM
"Uh… what…?" Ruby wondered.
"Are you okay?" The creature asked.
"Um… sure… but who and WHAT are you?" Weiss asked.
"I'm Lucario, the Aura Pokemon."
"…A Pokewhonow?" Ruby asked.
"A Pokemon." The creature, Lucario, replied.
"What's a Pokemon?"
"Creatures who fight, let's put it that way." Lucario said. "And none of them talk human-like like I do." And Mewtwo. He thought.
BGM: Have a Nice Talk (Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)
"I see…" Ruby nodded before remembering something. "Wait! The Ice Climbers said something about a Lucario! Are you the one?!"
"…You've met the Ice Climbers? How are they?"
"Well, they seem pretty fine despite the fact they were kicked out of this… tournament." Yang said.
"They took it pretty hard, but I told them there was nothing to worry about, since I had a feeling that they'll be coming back soon before they knew it."
"Do you know my uncle Qrow perhaps?" Ruby asked. "They said that you told them 'just keep moving forward'. My uncle says it all the time!"
"…I'm afraid I don't know this Qrow."
"…Oh… okay…" Ruby sighed.
"So what brings you to the mountains?" Lucario asked.
"We're going to go save the Princess and the Mario Bros." Yang said.
"Mario and Luigi have been kidnapped?" Lucario asked in surprise. "That's a new one… I never thought Bowser would think of that."
"So, are you from here?" Blake asked.
"No, I'm from the Sinnoh region and I came over here to train for the upcoming tournament." Lucario said. "Normally, I train at Spear Pillar, but there are times when I feel like training here."
"Spear… Pillar?" Ruby asked.
"A certain mountain in the Sinnoh Region." He said. "However, it is a good thing I came here instead of Spear Pillar."
"Why's that?" Yang asked.
"Those creatures you just fought. What are they?"
"The creatures of Grimm." Weiss said and explained what they are.
"…So my suspicions are correct…"
"What do you mean?" Ruby asked.
"Ever since I saw those creatures for the first time, I had this thought that something huge was happening, I thought I was going crazy… but maybe not."
"What are you talking about?" Blake asked.
"You see, during the Brawl Tournament, I had a feeling that something bad was about to happen… and then this being named Tabuu made himself known… while hijacking the Halberd, possessing an innocent robot and many other unspeakable things." He muttered, shuddering at the thought. "Maybe I'm going crazy… or maybe not. I feel as if it's a premonition."
"Well, best not to worry about it." Yang said.
"Right." Lucario nodded. Maybe I'll head over to Toad Town soon and make sure I'm not going crazy. He thought. "I will join you for a little while."
"Yay! A new friend!" Ruby cheered.
"What are your names, by the way?"
"Ruby Rose!"
"Weiss Schnee."
"Blake Belladona."
"Yang Xiao Long!"
End BGM
Lucario smiled. "Nice to meet you. Now, let's move out." He said as they nodded and took off, taking care of some straggling Grimm before they reached the flagpole, and went on to the second area.
World 6-2: Deep Dark Cave
"Uh oh… we seem to be heading towards a cave." Yang said as they came across a cave in front of them.
"Um, is there a way around…?" Weiss asked.
"Nope." Lucario spoke. "We have to go through this cave."
"…Oh great…" Weiss sighed as they walked into the cave.
BGM: Cave (The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker)
"Gah! It's completely dark!" Weiss complained.
"Agh! I can't see!" Yang exclaimed.
"…Blake… is that your hand?" Ruby hoped.
"No… that's not my hand."
"Here, let me help." Lucario said, activating his aura and a purple-like flame emitted from his paw… as they saw that Ruby was holding a Swoop.
"AAAAAH!" Ruby screamed, which seemed to scare the Swoop as it flew off.
"…How are you doing that?" Blake asked.
"My aura." He replied and explained what it was.
"So you're basically like a walking candle stick!" Ruby said, causing Lucario to sweatdrop while the others facepalmed.
"…I guess…" Lucario said as he turned around as he guided them around the place, while closing his eyes, letting his aura guide him through the area, and thanks to his aura, Yang found a Mushroom as she grabbed it and put it in her pocket, then they kept walking around some more until Lucario opened his eyes.
"We're near the exit." He said as they kept walking until they saw the light up ahead as they hurried along while also avoiding a few Piranha Plants, some Swoops and Monty Moles, and then they walked out of the cave, where they saw a statue in front of them.
End BGM
"Interesting statue…" Ruby said.
"But it's just two hands…" Weiss said. "There's nothing interesting about it."
"Oh, so you might think!" A voice said and then Kamek appeared again. "It's not just any statue, it's-… Lucario?"
"Hmph, look what the Koopa Clown brought in." Lucario taunted.
"Why you…!" Kamek growled. "I'll show YOU who's the clown!" He said, waving his wand and firing it at the two hand statues. "Take care of them… Eyrok!" He said and then disappeared.
BGM: Vs. Boss (Super Mario Sunshine)
"Two giant living hands?! IS HE OUT OF HIS MIND?!" Weiss yelled.
"It's not too farfetched, given Master and Crazy Hand…" Lucario muttered.
"I'll take care of these things." Yang said, walking forward and pulling out a Mushroom… as it looked… rockier than the last Mushroom, but she didn't care… as she then absorbed the Rock Mushroom.
Yang's jacket, belt, skirt and boots (all the leather on her basically) have gained a rock-like appearance while the white part of Yang's skirt turns into diamond crystals that hang down. Her orange socks and scarf gain a magma-like appearance and looks like it is constantly moving. Her fingerless gloves have turned into a yellow gem-like appearance and her shirt turns into a gold color.
As for Ember Celecia, it basically gained a crystal-like appearance.
"Whoa…" Blake said.
"…Huh…" Yang looked at herself before smirking. "Alright, you hand freaks… let me give you a hand… BECAUSE I'M GOING TO ROCK YOUR WORLD!"
"…Not sure if those puns were good or bad." Weiss said.
Trust me, you never met Pit and Palutena. Lucario thought.
Eyrok proceeded to punch her with its… er… face(?) but Yang quickly avoided it and when the eyes opened, she quickly fired Ember Celecia, where the bullets were replaced by boulders. (Think Rock Mario when he uses the Power-up)
Eyrok groaned as it tried to sweep her, but she let put a punch, that knocked Eyrok back, dazing it for a few as she let it all out, knocking the two back again, so they tried a different tactic as they moved until they were both at her side, and then attempted to clap together to squish her.
Unfortunately for them, Yang saw it coming and spread her arms out, preventing from being squished. "I've got to hand it to you, you got some moves… but you need to work on them!" She said as she pushed them back, and when Eyrok opened the eyes… she opened fire, destroying one of them as the other hand panicked and she let out one more shot, as the boulder slammed into the eye, knocking it down and destroying it.
End BGM
"And that's how you rock a hand's world!" Yang grinned.
In some universe…
"And so, if we destroy the blues with-"
"GOD DAMMIT, BARB!"
"Simmons! Is there something you wish to share?"
"…Sorry, Sarge, I don't know where that came from."
"You have issues."
"Oh, shut up Grif!"
"I'm just saying!"
On the other side of that same area...
"GOD DAMMIT BARB!"
"Whoa, what was that about, Church?!"
"I don't know, Tucker, but shut the fuck up."
Back with the others…
"I take it back… they were terrible." Weiss said.
"Somehow, I want to see a pun off between Yang and Pit." Lucario muttered.
"Is Pit just as terrible?" Blake asked.
"…At least he tries." Lucario muttered.
"Oh come on, they were pretty good. I say they rocked!"
"Uuuugh…" Weiss groaned as they walked away.
"Oh come on, cut me some slack, will ya?!" Yang said and took off with them.
At Bowser's Castle…
BGM: Bowser's Castle (Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door)
"…Repeat that." Bowser said. "WHO'S WITH THEM?!"
"You heard right." Kamek said. "Lucario's with them."
Bowser growled. "Out of all of the Smashers to join them… it just HAD to be Lucario… why couldn't someone else be with them… like that crybaby Lucas?"
"…You seem to know Lucario pretty well."
"Considering I was in that tournament, yes." Bowser said. "This might cause a problem for Monty Mole…"
"I went ahead and gave it an Aura protection."
"Then we're good. Now if you'll excuse me, I'll be studying about this has-been that tried to mimic me!" He said and took off.
"I'm not sure 'aura' will save him." Hammer Bro said.
"One can hope."
End BGM
At Vale…
"Junior detectives coming through!" Sun said as he and Neptune were investigating a crime scene. "Now, what happened?" He wondered, as the shop keeper (Who just so happens to be the From Dust 'til Dawn Shopkeeper) explained what happened and then saw a suspicious person walking by.
"That's him!"
"Hey, stop!" Neptune ordered as they chased after the suspicious person as it ran away from them. "He's too fast!"
"Not for long!" Sun smirked as suddenly, Zwei sped past them and tackled the man to the ground. "Good job, Zwei!"
Zwei had his usual smile at the two with a happy bark before growling at the man. "Alright, we're going to have to interrogate this guy." Sun said.
"Strange, I was expecting a member of the White Fang." Neptune said.
"In any case, let's go interrogate him until he breaks." Sun chuckled darkly as the two of them walked away as Zwei happily walked back over to Beacon… while sneaking into an airship that held Velvet who was taking some pictures in the process and then it took off.
Sorry about that, I got a little too excited and posted the wrong thing for chapter 12. All is good now!
Anyway, speaking of Pokemon, how about those evolutions and Ash-Greninja in Sun and Moon?
