BGM: Accordion Brumm (Hollow Knight)
A small single spotlight flickered down on a conductor's platform in an empty theater. Seats were filled with cobwebs and the curtains that once lavished the stage were now filled with dust, tears, and holes. Rubble fell from the ceiling that had been crumbling down since it was abandoned as Remnant's shattered moon illuminated the vast empty halls.
Suddenly a red wisp of flame wandered into the room as it drifted towards the heart of the theater before positioning itself on the front seat. Then another red ball of flame joined the first before a third, fourth… No, hundreds of red flames entered the theater as all seven spotlights overhead began to function as it flashed towards the conductor's platform.
The sudden chirps and shrieks of bats can be heard as a swarm of them immediately flew in from the crumbling roof as they circled overhead before more bats came to join them. They then congregate at the conductor's platform before merging into one being.
The figure stood up with his two small slender black legs as he donned his black bat-like cloak with red underneath. His face, which greatly resembled the bats that flew in, turned towards the audience as he bowed to them with his white mask and red pupils accompanied by two vertical lines on his eyes.
The audience, in question, were now filled with specters, ghosts, and wraiths wearing the exact same mask as the figure onstage. They applauded, cheered, and roared as the theater that was once abandoned was now changed. What was once an empty, abandoned theater was now brimming with light. Crimson light. Light, unnatural to the land and one that felt ominous to the core.
The wallpaper that had been peeling away was now refurbished with black and red colors accompanied by lifeless masks of the audience hanging. The lights that had filled the room with a warm hue were now crimson. The cobwebs and dust that once vacated the theater were immediately removed. The curtains were now renewed and decorated with red and black tassels. And the crumbling hole on the roof that once showed Remnant's broken moon was gone as if it had never existed.
The audience soon died down as the figure onstage spread his arms wide and looked at them through his red eyes.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am proudly delighted that you have come to see our grand performance!" The figure bowed again as the audience roared once more. The bat-like figure came back up as the audience silenced themselves.
"I am Grimm, the conductor and host of this newly established theater…" He introduced himself. "The flames of this land, this world, old and new had summoned us here to this very stage as we shall partake in the role of symphony."
"How fun it is to see our stars playing their roles as we dance through their acts and play through their struggles." Grimm snapped his fingers as a large red ball of hellfire appeared revealing various scenes of Team RWBY and her friends fighting for their lives while also struggling from their inner demons.
"But sometimes, even our stars should have more than just one role. Even actors and stagehand who helped create the scene should find joy in their own life." It was then the images of Team RWBY and all the friends and rivals they made were having fun.
"And so, let us commence this boisterous and beautiful symphony of life, sadness, joy, pain, and triumph as we dance, sing, laugh, and die… The symphony awaits…" Grimm said as he conjured a baton and tapped it on the music stand as instruments slowly appeared. Within each of his words, as if commanded, the orchestra pit begins to fill itself with life.
Strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion instruments appeared onstage as a giant sinister lantern carrying a red flame descended from the overhead.
"The roles have been cast. The stage has been set. Our actors have revealed their faces. And the scene is now ready! Ladies and Gentlemen! Creatures of all shapes and sizes! Welcome to-"

SUPER RWBY SISTERS: FANTASIA
In Patch…
SONG: Tik Tok (Kesha)
Ruby Rose slept on her bed as sunlight hit her window and shined on the floor. Her alarm clock rang before the red reaper used her plant arm and stopped.
"WAKE UP IN THE MORNING FEELIN' LIKE P. DIDDY" Ruby bursted into song as she got dressed, grabbed Crescent Rose and her Pokeballs, and zoomed down her new home towards the front door.
"GRAB MY GLASSES, I'M OUT THE DOOR, I'M GONNA HIT THIS CITY!" Yang joined in as she wore her favorite sunglasses.
"BEFORE I LEAVE, BRUSH MY TEETH-" Their father, Taiyang sang.
"-WITH A BOTTLE OF JACK!" Their uncle, Qrow, finished the verse.
"'CAUSE WHEN I LEAVE FOR THE NIGHT, I AIN'T COMING BACK!" Ruby said as she faced her family on top of a warp pipe with a smug look on her face before falling back. She landed straight on her feet at the end of which she now stands on the Mushroom Kingdom's streets.
"I'M TALKIN' PEDICURE ON OUR TOES, TOES" Coco sang as she was at a spa with Velvet.
"TRYIN' ON ALL OUR CLOTHES, CLOTHES" Junko sings in tune with Mukuro.

"DROP-TOPPIN', PLAYIN' OUR FAVORITE CDS" Kaede hummed from the music store as she had headphones on her ears.
"PULLIN' UP TO THE PARTIES-" Claude happily sang with Yang by his side.
By the docks, Mugman was near the water as Giga Mermaid chuckled at him before kissing him on the nose.
"TRYNA GET A LITTLE BIT TIIIIIIPPPPPSSSSSSSYYYYYY~" Mugman groggily smiled before fainting. His brother, Cupman, and friend, Ms. Chalice, stood there with warm smiles, chuckles, and headshakes.
"DON'T STOP, MAKE IT POP DJ, BLOW MY SPEAKERS UP!" Xena, Yagami, and Umber sang together.
"TONIGHT, I'MA FIGHT TILL WE SEE THE SUNLIGHT!" Nora and Pyrrha said while they locked arms with Jaune and Ren.
"TICK TOCK ON THE CLOCK BUT THE PARTY DON'T STOP-" Scout held up a clock and sang.
"NO, OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH! OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH!" Soldier, Heavy, Demoman, Engineer, Medic, Spy, Sniper, and Pyro joined in.

"TONIGHT, I'MA FIGHT TILL WE SEE THE SUNLIGHT!" Pit and Ruby smiled as they held hands.
"TICK TOCK ON THE CLOCK BUT THE PARTY DON'T STOP-" Sora hummed the next verse.
"NO, OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH! OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH!" Kairi, Riku, Namine, Roxas, Xion, Axel, Isa, Aqua, Terra, and Ventus sang together.
Then Ruby, along with her boyfriend Pit, jumped into a warp pipe which led them to the Smash Mansion. Inside, everyone was going about their ordinary lives while rocking into the rhythm.
"AIN'T GOT A CARE IN THE WORLD-" Byleth sang as her wife, Dorothea, finished her verse. "BUT GOT PLENTY OF BEER!"
"AIN'T GOT NO MONEY IN MY POCKET, BUT I'M ALREADY HERE!" Gloria and Marnie joined with Bede and Hop.
"AND NOW THE DUDES ARE LININ' UP" Pyra singed as Mythra jumped in. "'CAUSE THEY HEAR WE GOT SWAGGER!"
"BUT WE KICK 'EM TO THE CURB" Daisy sang with a smug look.
"UNLESS THEY LOOK LIKE MICK JAGGER" Princess Peach finished as he crossed his arms and posed.
"I'M TALKIN' ABOUT ERRBODY GETTIN' CRUNK, CRUNK" Jeanne said as she walked with Bayonetta in their fashionable outfits.
"GONNA SMACK HIM IF HE GETTIN' TOO DRUNK, DRUNK" Bayonetta purred as she unintentionally stepped on Teruteru Hanamura.
"NOW, NOW WE GO UNTIL THEY KICK US OUT, OUT" Jade, Nyx, and Iris sang.
"OR THE POLICE SHUT US DOWN, DOWN" The Phantom Thieves joined as a chorus.
"POLICE SHUT US DOWN, DOWN" Wario and Waluigi repeated with sunglasses on their faces and numerous bags of gold coins behind them.
"PO-PO SHUT US DOWN" Penny, SAPR, K1-B0, Caroline, Chihiro, Johnson, and Wheatley spoke before falsely deactivating.
"DON'T STOP, MAKE IT POP DJ, BLOW MY SPEAKERS UP!" Team MAJC and Team CRDL sang together.
"TONIGHT, I'MA FIGHT TILL WE SEE THE SUNLIGHT!" Samus said with Chell, despite being mute.
"TICK TOCK ON THE CLOCK BUT THE PARTY DON'T STOP-" Shantae, Sky, Rotty, and Bolo sang.
"NO, OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH! OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH!" The Freelancers jumped in with their weapons shooting the air.
"DON'T STOP, MAKE IT POP DJ, BLOW MY SPEAKERS UP!" The Warriors of Hope began to sing.
"TONIGHT, I'MA FIGHT TILL WE SEE THE SUNLIGHT!" Almost all the Ultimates chimed in.
"TICK TOCK ON THE CLOCK BUT THE PARTY DON'T STOP-" Hat Kid and Mustache Girl smiled while holding up an hourglass on each of their hands.
"NO, OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH! OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH!" Mafia, Conductor, DJ Grooves, and the Snatcher sung in unison.
It then cuts to Ruby as she rests herself down on a flower bed within the shade of the tree. She watched the clouds in the sky roll by as the sun began to slowly set upon the horizon.
"YOU BUILD ME UP, YOU BRING ME DOWN! MY HEART, IT POUNDS YEAH, YOU GOT ME!" Ruby sang as she began to recall memories of her endeavors with her team, friends, and family. "WITH MY HANDS UP, YOU GOT ME NOW! YOU GOT THAT SOUND, YEAH, YOU GOT ME!"
"YOU BUILD ME UP, YOU BREAK ME DOWN! MY HEART, IT POUNDS, YEAH, YOU GOT ME! WITH MY HANDS UP, PUT YOUR HANDS UP!"
Ruby then saw her aunt, Raven, waiting for her next to her Kindred Link. She stood up and walked towards her with a soft smile on her face.
"PUT YOUR HANDS UP…!"
Ruby stepped through the link as it immediately took her to a dark stage where Weiss, Blake, Yang, and Sea5on waited for her. They smiled as soon as they saw her and got into position where they posed.
"NOW, THE PARTY DON'T START TILL I WALK IN!"
The stage illuminated itself as Team RWBY and Sea5on revealed themselves towards the massive audience which largely consisted of Toads, Goombas, Koopas, Faunuses, Beacon Academy students, monsters, Pikmin, and Smash fighters.
Weiss wore a blue tank top with a black belt holding a white miniskirt and blue shorts. She also wore white stockings and blue sneakers.
For Blake's outfit, it consisted of a black undershirt, black gloves with white outlines, white sneakers and black socks, and black pants that were tied with a white jacket. She also wore golden headphones around her neck that matched her eyes.
With Yang, she wore a yellow shirt with a black jacket, black ripped pants, and yellow shoes with black socks.
As for Ruby, she was now wearing a red and black short shirt with the rose emblem at its center accompanied by red wristbands on her normal arm. She also wore red shorts with black pockets as she also wore red and black sneakers and socks.
"DON'T STOP, MAKE IT POP DJ, BLOW MY SPEAKERS UP!"
"TONIGHT, I'MA FIGHT TILL WE SEE THE SUNLIGHT!" The crowd began to sing and waved their glow sticks to the rhythm as Team RWBY and Sea5on started to dance.
"TICK TOCK ON THE CLOCK DON'T STOP,-"
"NO OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH! OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH!" The crowd and Ruby sang along to the beat.
"DON'T STOP, MAKE IT POP DJ, BLOW MY SPEAKERS UP!"
"TONIGHT, I'MA FIGHT TILL WE SEE THE SUNLIGHT!"
"TICK TOCK ON THE CLOCK DON'T STOP,-"
"NO OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH! OH, WHOA, WHOA, OH!"
SONG END
Ruby, Weiss Yang, Blake, and Sea5on finished the song with a dramatic pose as the crowd went wild. Four girls laughed with each other and Sea5on before turning towards the audience and bowed.
In Kuroyuri (Years before the events of RWBY and Super RWBY Sisters)...
SONG: TWO FAMILIES ONE WORLD (TARZAN)
Young Ren and Nora haste through the ruins of Kuroyuri while the Grimm, Nuckelavee, destroy everything in sight while killing the inhabitants, including Ren's parents. The boy tearfully ran away with Young Nora to the outskirts of the village without looking back in fear.
As they reached the outskirts, they looked back at the destroyed Kuroyuri as they wept. Hesitantly, they turned their backs and continued to move away to avoid any Grimm detecting their sorrow.
Hours passed as day turned to night, Young Ren and Nora did not eat food or water during their journey as they both rested by an old tree. The two of them huddled by a small fire, desperate to get warm as they felt weakness consuming their bodies. They struggled to close their eyes as the cold wind forced them to fall asleep, their strength leaving them. Tears silently fell from Ren's face as he wished everything was just a dream.
The next morning, Ren opened his eyes to see not trees concealing the sky; but rather a wooden roof above his head. He noticed that his shoulder was lighter and realized Nora wasn't present. Panicked, he immediately sprang up and looked around the room until landing his eyes on a separate bed that he, too, was now resting.
The door on the left slowly opened, immediately alerting Ren as a figure entered his view. It was a lady with pale skin and large, lavender eyes and short eyebrows. She also wears a white-colored right-swept hair in a short ponytail with two strands of hair let loose at the front. She even wore a salmon-colored mofuku kimono with an ombre to orange at the top with flower patterns with a dark-indigo haori with numerous blue butterfly-patterns. She also wore a brown with a paler shade striped-obi with an orange obiage supporting it.
She noticed Ren awakened with Nora soon following with groans as she came closer. Ren, now cautious, inched himself away from her before she stopped between his and Nora's bed. She introduced herself as Amane Ubuyashiki and explained that one of the scouts of the village had found them and nursed them back to health.
Nora, now awake, noticed Amane as she asked her where they are. To answer her question, the lady suggested they follow her as she approached the door. Ren and Nora came off the bed as they followed suit as she opened the door. They entered and walked through the halls of what seems to be a traditional Mistralian manor before Ren saw a window. Curious about the village, he took a glimpse along with Nora as they were amazed to see the landscape before them.
"PUT YOUR FAITH IN WHAT YOU MOST BELIEVE IN"
It was a mountain village, surrounded by wisteria, spider lilies, and chrysanthemums and houses that lay on the foot of the mountain. There was a courtyard where there were swordsmen, wearing black uniforms, swinging their wooden katanas at the instruction of their mentor. Over in the distance, there were several trails of smoke and the faint sound of clanging steel which indicated a forge and a blacksmith. It was as if they had arrived in another world.
"TWO WORLDS, ONE FAMILY"
At the sight of Ren and Nora's amazement, Amane hid her smile before grabbing their attention to resume following her. Unknown to the three of them, one of the swordsmen in the courtyard noticed him as he watched through the distance before going back to his sword swings.
"TRUST YOUR HEART, LET FAITH DECIDED TO GUIDE THESE LIVES WE SEE"
Amane, Ren, and Nora then came into a large room where one man and four small children awaited their arrival.
The man himself had light skin and black shoulder length hair. He wore a plain black kimono secured with a tan-colored braided obi over a white judan. He also wore a white, calf-length haori with a unique design of gradient flames of the colors purple and salmon pink rising from the hem up to the half of the sleeves.
The four children themselves were quintuplets as the four of them have blunt bob cut hair with three of them having white hair and the fourth having black. They were nearly exact replicas of their parents and they all looked like living dolls which unnerved Ren and Nora.
Amane asked them to sit down as she left to collect tea and snacks for them.
"A PARADISE UNTOUCHED BY MAN!"
The man in front of them introduced himself as the husband of Amane and head chief, Kagaya Ubuyashiki, before introducing his children, Hinaki, Nichika, Kiriya, and Kanata. Kagaya then asked Ren and Nora what were they doing dangerously alone without their parents to which the two of them tensely silenced. Ren, gathering all of his courage to push back his tears, began to explain his story as the five Ubuyashiki members remained silent.
"WITHIN THIS WORLD BLESSED WITH LOVE!"
After Ren finished his story, the Ubuyashiki family, with Amane returning, gave out their deepest condolences for the trauma Ren and Nora obtained. Kagaya insisted that they stay in Taisho, the village that was built to help refugees of villages that were destroyed by Grimm or bandits while also training its future protectors to fend off against the two threats.
Ren and Nora accepted their offering as Kagaya softly smiled. He then ordered his son, Kiriya, to take them to Tsutako Tomioka where they can stay. The son nodded as he told Nora and Ren to follow suit.
"A SIMPLE LIFE, THEY LIVE IN PEACE-"
As Kiriya led Ren and Nora out of the mansion, they were given a small tour around the village to which they were awed.
"SOFTLY TREAD THE SAND BELOW YOUR FEET NOW"
Humans and Faunuses were working together in various tasks to help the village from raising crops to making weapons at the forge. Some of them devoted themselves to the front lines of Taisho's defense in case a Grimm found it. If anything compared to half of Remnant, Taisho was the village that accepted anyone regardless of race. It was a safe haven to the Faunuses that were persecuted or discriminated against from the world.
"TWO WORLDS, ONE FAMILY"
"TRUST YOUR HEART, LET FATE DECIDE, TO GUIDE THESE LIVES WE SEE"
They continued to walk until Kiriya stopped at the foot of a hill where a small cottage lay there. Outside, there was a young woman, who was drying the wet laundry, with dark hair and light skin. She had her hair tied in a thick braid with a light-colored ribbon down her back and a loose fringe on her forehead. Her eyes were a shade of dark blue as she wore a dark red kimono and a hakama tied below her chest.
The woman, who was revealed to be Tsutako Tomioka, was shocked when she noticed Kiriya coming in with Ren and Nora. She asked the son of the chieftain what he was doing here before explaining the situation of Ren and Nora. Slowly and surely, she accepted to offer Ren and Nora a place to stay.
Of course, Ren and Nora were cautious towards her as they felt unease to trust a stranger who offered herself to be their guardian. It was also then they heard walking footsteps coming towards their direction as they turned around and saw a boy about above their age.
He was a boy with unruly black hair of uneven lengths that sticks up in tufts around his head, which he ties into a low messy ponytail at the base of his neck. Similar to Tsutako, his eyes were dark sapphire that fades to a lighter blue with blueish-black pupils and thin eyebrows. He wore a red haori with a black tucked-in tattsuke-hakama pants, white leg-wrapped kyakan, and a pair of white zori with dark blue straps. He also wore a white fox mask with light blue eyes. On the strap of his waist was a sheathe holding a wooden katana.
Tsutako immediately recognized and introduced him as her younger brother, Giyu Tomioka, who was surprised to see Kiriya, along with Nora and Ren. She explained happily to him that Ren and Nora will be staying with them as adopted siblings as much to their discomfort.
Kiriya noticed their discomfort and reassured them that Tsutako and Giyu would provide them with as much comfort as they needed. He also told Ren and Nora that in case they need further assistance, they can go visit his father's manor. He waved goodbye and left Ren and Nora to Tsutako and Giyu.
"BENEATH THE SHELTER OF THE TREES!"
Throughout the first two months, Ren and Nora hid from Tsutako as they still felt uncomfortable. Even if she tried to help them adjust to their new home, Ren would activate his Semblance to hide himself and Nora from her. Yet, they would appear to her whenever they felt hungry. She took on that challenge while Giyu, who would spend most of his day practicing his swordsmanship, aid her to try to get Ren and Nora to trust them.
"ONLY LOVE CAN ENTER HERE!"
Then, during the third month, Tsutako and Giyu were visited by a boy who happens to be delivering bread to them. The smell of fresh and hot bread hit Nora's nose as she slowly came out of Ren's Semblance and walked to them who were surprised to see her coming out for the first time.
The boy in question was a young man with fairly tanned skin and athletic, muscular physique. He has ruffled black hair with burgundy tips combed back to expose his forehead, which has a scar on the top left as his hair was tied into a bun. He had red eyes with white pupils that are lighter on the lower section of his irises. He wore a checkered, black-and-sea-foam-green haori over a white robe and black pants. He also wore a pair of hanafuda earrings that depicted a rising sun over a mountain.
The boy looked at Nora with a kind and gentle smile before introducing himself as Tanjiro Kamado. He looked at Tsutako and Giyu who explained to him about Ren and Nora's dilemma and how timid both of them were to open themselves to them. Tanjiro immediately understood as he looked back at Nora and assured her that there is no need to be afraid. He also noticed Ren peeking by the corner and told him the same thing.
Ren hesitated at first before slowly approaching Tanjiro. He flinched when he saw Tanjiro reaching out his hand towards him. Yet, he soon felt at ease when he felt the warmth of another human's touch besides Nora's. He looked at Tanjiro who smiled warmly before turning towards Tsutako and Giyu.
"A SIMPLE LIFE, THEY LIVE IN PEACE-"
Years passed and Young Ren and Nora began to open themselves towards the Tomiokas and the village as they helped Tsutako with the chores around the house from cleaning to folding laundry. They even assisted the locals through deliveries and mundane tasks that required more than one hand.
"RAISE YOUR HEAD UP! LIFT HIGH THE LOAD!"
Young Ren even began to show interest in cooking; he helped Tsutako with breakfast, lunch, and dinner. At first, when Ren tried to cook by himself, he nearly burned down the kitchen. Thankfully, with the help of Tanjiro and Tsutako, he was able to improve overtime and eventually became Nora's favorite chef when it comes to pancakes.
"TAKE STRENGTH FROM THOSE THAT NEED YOU!"
Nora, on the other hand, made multiple friends people around the village including Tanjiro's sister, Nezuko; Jigoro Kuwajima, one of the respected swordsmen of Taisho; Kaigaku and Zenitsu Agatsuma, both students and adopted siblings under the watch of Jigoro, Shinobu Kocho; a butterfly faunus who is one of Giyu's friend and nurse, and to all the villagers' surprise, Hotaru Haganezuka; Taisho's crankiest blacksmith with an extreme passion of weapon making.
"BUILD HIGH THE WALLS! BUILD STRONG THE BEAMS!"
"A NEW LIFE IS WAITING-"
Ren and Nora eventually join Giyu and Tanjiro at school where they began to use weapons that were compatible with them as they grew. Nora chose the hammer, which she was fond of since she received a wooden mallet from Ren a long time ago. The said boy, on the other hand, chose two dual blades that had reminded him of his father.
The two of them also made friends with other students like Inosuke Hashibira; a boar faunus who was loud but also cannot get anyone's name right, and Genya and Sanmei Shinazugawa; two leopard faunus brothers who are also loud but has a soft side. There was also Kyojuro Rengoku, a passionate and charismatic man who easily befriended Ren and Nora in an instant, along with Obonai Iguro, Gyomei Himejima, Mitsuri Kanroji, and Muichiro Tokito. There was also Sabito and Makomo, two friends of Giyu who had introduced themselves to Ren and Nora when they were still young.
It was also when Nora eventually unlocked her Semblance to the surprise of everyone, including Ren. During a thunderstorm, Nora was struck by lightning when she was delivering medicine for one of the villagers who got sick. At first, she could not control it as she would accidentally shock one of the residents whenever they came too close to her. However, Jigoro helped her control it as he taught her how to channel her newfound powers and become unpredictable as lightning itself.
"-BUT DANGERS NO STRANGER HERE!"
With everyone in the village now growing up, they all began to take different paths that would set their future. Tsutako became engaged with a residential doctor and began planning for the wedding. Giyu, Tanjiro, and all the friends they made in school were now moving on to become protectors and fighters.
Nora wanted to become a Huntress as she wished to help people outside of Taisho. Ren, however, could not decide his future and disagreed with Nora's decision. At first, Nora tried to reassure Ren that she would be all right going alone until, for the first time, he raised his voice towards her, telling her to abandon that goal.
Nora then yelled back to Ren that he never chose his future before he replied that he would rather become a baker than journeying outside to get himself killed. What had seemed to be a disagreement became a full-on argument with bickering and slandering rage flying at each other. However, the argument immediately took a drastic stop when Ren angrily shouted that he had wished he never met Nora.
Nora immediately bolted out of the room leaving a horrified Ren in the process. The boy slumped down on his chair with a now crestfallen expression as he realized what he had done. He looked up and saw Tanjiro concerned since he had overheard their bickering. He sat down next to Ren as he asked him why he did not wish Nora to leave.
Ren, mustering all the strength he can, told him that he was afraid of losing someone again. He was afraid of losing Nora since she was the only light for him when he had his darkest times. Admittedly, he wanted Nora to be around because he liked her.
Tanjiro, as empathetic he was, told Ren that as soon as Nora calmed down, he can apologize and make up to her. Ren thanked him as he left and went home to see if Nora was there. As soon as he reached the house, Tsutako welcomed him but noticed that Nora was not with him. Ren, with dread now building up in his body, asked if Nora had come home to which Tsutako shook her head.
Immediately, Ren dropped his school bag and ran to find Nora, ignoring the cries that Tsutako exclaimed. He rushed to their friends' houses to ask if Nora was there, and to his horror, they shook their heads as Ren continued to run. He searched through every nook and cranny from the places they played to the stores that they usually go to. The sun began to set and Nora was nowhere to be found. Yet, one place entered Ren's mind that would be the last thing they would go to.
Quickly, Ren sprinted towards a cave that served as the secret entrance to Taisho. To all the villagers and refugees, it was strictly forbidden to enter or leave except for those who vowed themselves to the blade. Ren, picking up his courage, rushed through the cave to find his friend.
Rushing through the dark tunnel, his eyes struggle to find traces or figures that resembled Nora before he heard a shriek. Realizing the source of the sound came from the other side of the cavern, Ren picked up the pace as he came out. Immediately, he spotted Nora pinned down by King Taijitu accompanied by six Ursais. In fear, he froze, Ren was experiencing the same events that had taken his parents away and now was forced to make a choice. He could run away or try to distract the Grimm as long as he could for Nora to escape.
Immediately, Ren rushed to Nora's side as he pushed her to the ground before the King Taijitu strike. The two of them tumbled to the ground with Ren shielding Nora from the impact. Nora was shocked that Ren saved her despite what he said but the thought was immediately cut off as Ren told her to run. She stood up and Ren grabbed her hand as they quickly started running.
However, they unfortunately ran into a dead-end as they fearfully turned around to see the Grimm now forcefully pushing them into the corner. Nora, despite how scared she was, immediately grabbed her hammer and attacked the Ursais. Yet the King Taijitu swung its body, sending Nora back to the rocky surface as Ren quickly placed himself between her and the Grimm.
But as the Grimm were about to strike, a green blur came through and slashed all the Grimms' necks before appearing besides Ren and Nora. Shock came to them as the Grimms' heads fell from their bodies as they dissipated into nothing. They looked at the swordsman who looked at them with a frown under his helm.
The said swordsman in question had visors with seven lenses attached to it as he wore a light green armor and garbs that resembled a flower. His katana was curved out like a blade of grass with three leaf-like rings at its back.
The swordsman eventually escorted Ren and Nora back into the tunnel to Taisho where they were met with a tearful Tsutako as she hurried towards them and gave them a strong hug.
"NO WORDS DESCRIBE A MOTHER'S TEARS"
Tsutako then broke out of the hug as she began to scold the two of them for leaving the village as Ren and Nora apologized for their actions.
"NO WORDS CAN HEAL A BROKEN HEART"
It was then Amane Ubuyashiki came towards them as she sighed in relief. She thanked the swordsman, Qian Yi, for saving Ren and Nora as the warrior bowed in respect before leaving. She looked at Ren and Nora who flinched at her disappointed gaze as they realized they broke a major rule. She then scolded them for leaving but also gave out a sigh in relief that they were alive.
Ren and Nora bowed in apology to Amane as they explained why they left. After they finished, they waited anxiously for Amane's response and waited for what kind of punishment they would receive.
They then saw Amane sigh again as she explained to them that they will be cleaning the armory until there is no grime left. She decided to lessen their punishment since her husband, Kagaya, was old friends with Ren's father. She then left, leaving a surprised Nora and Ren behind with Tsutako.
Nora and Ren looked at each other as they began to apologize to each other. They vowed to never leave each other's side or let their emotions cloud their judgment. Ren, in his mind, swore to himself not just to protect the world, but to protect Nora until his last breath. It was then Ren decided that he will become a Hunter as he now has a future.
"A DREAM IS GONE, BUT WHERE THERE'S HOPE-"
"SOMEWHERE SOMETHING IS CALLING FOR YOU!"
Ren and Nora continued to live out their lives in Taisho after they cleaned the armory spotlessly. They trained and sparred with their friends, helped out the villagers, and started to make their own weapons.
Nora customized her newly created maul which would shift into a grenade launcher. She named her new weapon, Magnhild.
For Ren, he created a pair of machine pistols with blades on its front that were inspired by his father. He named his newly made weapon, Stormflower.
"TWO WORLDS, ONE FAMILY!"
Ren and Nora, now seventeen, were now at the entrance of the cave as they looked back at Taisho with everyone celebrating their departure to Vale. They were given plenty of gifts and blessings from their friends, townsfolk, and the Ubuyashiki family.
"TRUST YOUR HEART"
"LET FATE DECIDE TO GUIDE THESE LIVES WE SEE!"
Ren and Nora looked at each other with a determined look as they waved goodbye to everyone. Now staring at the cave, they stepped forward as their minds were set on becoming new defenders of Remnant, and a new start of their great journey.
SONG END
Back in the Present…
Ren woke up from his bed in Toad Town as he looked at a photo that showed his younger self, along with Nora, as they were smiling with everyone else in Taisho. Ren's eyes became soft as a smile formed on his lips. He got off the bed and changed to his casual clothes.
"Good Morning Ren!" Nora burst into his room with a cheery smile. It soon faded as she saw him picking up a photo. She walked towards him and took a look before immediately recognizing it.
"Hey, Nora…" Ren spoke to his partner. "Should we give our old friends a visit?"
"Yeah!" Nora's enthusiasm was immediately brought back. "Let's bring Jaune and Pyrrha! They'll be happy to see Taisho!"
She then left, leaving Ren to stare at the photo once more. The hunter then placed the photo back onto the shelf as he began to leave. He closed the door as he ran after his partner.
In Taisho…
Kagaya Ubuyashiki, along with his wife and kids, sat down on the floor as five people entered the room. He looked up and smiled at their arrival.
"Tanjiro, Nezuko, Inosuke, Zenitsu, Giyu, we thank you for coming here." Kagaya said at the newcomers.
"So what the heck do you want us to do Kankuro Absnoshinji?" The Boar Faunus, Inosuke, asked before getting hit in the head by Zenitsu.
"Hey, watch your tongue you idiot boar!" Zenitsu scolded before Inosuke glared at him.
"What did you call me soggy french fry!" He shouted back.
The two begin to bicker, only for Nezuko to get forcefully between them and push them away.
"I-I'm sorry Mr. Ubuyashiki!" Tanjiro immediately apologized while the head chief chuckled.
"Is there something you need from us Headmaster?" Giyu exasperatedly sighed before asking the head chief of Taisho.
"Indeed," Kagaya nodded as his tone became serious. "We have brought you here, the first form team of Taisho's trained Huntsmen, Team TIKZ, along with Giyu, have summoned all of you here for an important mission."
"And what's that mission, Headmaster?" Nezuko asked.
"For countless years, we, and the trained warriors that you all have learned from, have defended Taisho for years with our numbers being overwhelmed by Grimm." Kagaya explained. "However, now that we know the existence of the Grimm Queen and the fact that the Branwen Tribe has been mysteriously wiped out, it is time that we take back what we have lost and bring hope to Anima."
"You're saying…" Tanjiro was shocked.
"Yes… we are no longer hiding from the world any longer after what we have seen." Kagaya said as he closed his eyes. "That is why you and Nezuko, Inosuke, Zenitsu, and Giyu's first mission outside our village, to retake Mistral, is…"
He opened his eyes as his gray pupils reflected on Tanjiro's face.
"...to kill the Nuckelavee that is now approaching upon us as we speak."
In Hyrule(Ocarina of Time)...
Music: (Night of Bald Mountain)
Ganondorf sat on his throne in his tower as he maliciously grinned at the scene before him. The entire Kingdom of Hyrule was at ruins along with the settlements that had sided with them. All of it was razed and burned to the ground as monsters raided nearby villages and slaughtered its residences if they were to show resistance to their new ruler. He smiled at the screams and cries of the unfortunate as he looked on with the entire kingdom now down on its knees.
His hand, now with the Triforce of Power, pulsed with divine energy as he frowned when it faded. It has been seven years since he had taken it from the Temple of Time and the so-called "Hero of Time" now slumbers within the Sacred Realm. Ganondorf's desire, upon usurping the Hylian throne, was to find the other two pieces of the Triforce that had scattered itself upon his retrieval of the Triforce of Power.
His only estimate, upon using his newly enhanced abilities to see all, was that the Princess of Hyrule now possessed the Triforce of Power; which was the reason why he allowed the monsters to attack the village to lure her out. However, he grumbled that the Triforce of Courage was now out of his reach. Ganondorf expected that the "Hero" was in possession of it and was resting within the place that has now locked him out of.
Yet, his mind turned towards the settlements and villages that were now under siege of curses that he had placed upon them.
The once peaceful Kokiri forest was now infested with monsters with the Great Deku Tree now dead and the Kokiris were forced into hiding.
The Gorons on Death Mountain were now sacrificed to the dragon that now rests within the Fire Temple.
The Zoras in Zora's Domain are frozen in ice and the once beautiful Lake of Hylia is now in a drought.
Kakariko Village is now attacked by a great evil that was once imprisoned within the well.
And Gerudo Village, with its chieftess captured and taken within the Spirit Temple.
He cackled as the sages were now helpless and there was no one in his path that would stand against him. He laughed and laughed until-
*BONG*
A church bell came into his ears as Ganondorf stopped laughing. He wondered where that sound came from before he shrugged it off. He laughed once again before-
*BONG*
The church bell rang again, only this time louder. Ganondorf was now irritated by the noise and looked to where the bell was rung. His eyes gazed upon the deserted Hyrule town streets that were inhabited by the Redeads since he knew that the town itself was large enough to hold a church. It was then he laid his eyes on the cathedral to which he recognized as the Temple of Time itself.
*BONG*
The dark clouds that have been covering the town in darkness slightly parted as light shined towards the temple doors. It blinded Ganondorf to the point he had to cover his eyes with his hands.
As soon as the light faded, Ganondorf saw that Temple of Time's doors open as a Hylian warrior with a green tunic and cap stepped out with the Master Sword at hand. Immediately, he recognized him as the small young boy that had seen him chasing after the Princess of Hyrule seven years ago. He glared at him from his tower as he knew that the insufferable pest in front of him might hinder his plans.
He planned on striking the warrior immediately with a powerful spell but stopped himself. That warrior was just a boy years ago and has now awakened with an adult body. Ganondorf wondered if that boy has what it takes to truly wield the powerful weapon that could slay him.
He then decided to watch and observe this so-called "Hero of Time" from his tower as he cackled once more. If this boy was destined to defeat him, then he would test him to see if he is worthy enough to face the harsh changes that had plagued the world.
Ganondorf will defy his destiny, one way or another.
MUSIC END
In Po Town…
SONG: HIP HOP HOORAY (NAUGHTY BY NATURE)
Team Skull were dancing outside at night as a Team Skull Grunt carried a boombox on his shoulders. Music begins to play Guzma, Gladion, Plumeria, and surprisingly Deadpool came out from the Shady House with black-tinted sunglasses. They nod their heads to the beat of the music as they begin to walk down the streets.

MUSIC: END
Above the walls that surrounded Po Town, Umber watched Team Skull and Deadpool from afar as he hummed the song.
"Thanks for taking us here, Umber!" A voice called out to him as he smiled.
"No problem Marnie! I'm just wanting to take you and Gloria here since this was a good time to watch." He said as Gloria was also present with them.
"Ya know lad, I've been wondering… why is Deadpool there with them?" Gloria asked.
"I… have absolutely no idea myself…" Umber said. "But I should take Xena and Yagami here next time."
"Ai lad, they'll like it!" Gloria smiled as they continued to watch the party.
In the Forgotten Land…
MUSIC: LOSING CONTROL (VILLAIN OF THE STORY)
It has been two months since Umber and Meta Knight have been stranded in the Forgotten Land. They had been constantly chased by a strange entity known as the "Ultimate Lifeform," and now were taking refuge by an abandoned building outside the Natural Plains. Constantly fighting back the corruption and mind-control the strange entity repeatedly sent them, their mental defenses still stayed strong.
They were not alone however as Stephen Strange, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Jack Skellington were also present with them. Yet, they too were bombarded with constant psychic attacks as they struggled to resist it.
Everyone was now waiting for help as they hoped someone from Umber's and Meta Knight's world would come and save them. However, rather than spending the time hiding, they decided to do something different.
After scavenging through the strange Alivel Mall, they found musical instruments like the electric guitar and drums. They then took them back as they decided to play, even though this was the first time Umber took hold of an electric guitar. Umber begins to start singing as Michelangelo begins to play the drums, Raphael plays the bass guitar, Donatello uses the electric piano, and Leonardo holds another electric guitar.
"THE WALLS ARE CLOSING IN AGAIN!" Umber sang. "SO CLAUSTROPHOBIC AS I'M TRAPPED IN MY HEAD! IT'S LIKE I DON'T BELONG IN MY OWN SKIN IT'S SINKING IN, I'M LOWER THAN I'VE EVER BEEN!"
"OH GOD, OH GOD" Leonardo and Raphael shouted.
"WHY DO I FEEL SO WRONG?"
"I HOLD ON, HOLD ON" Michelangelo and Donatello joined.
"BEFORE I'M TOO FAR GONE! I CAN'T LET IT CONSUME ME! I'M LOSING MY GRIP!" Umber yelled through the microphone.
As the music continues to play, Jack Skellington brings out two glowsticks, one orange and black, as he begins to wave it as much to Strange's confusion.
"Where did you-" Strange was about to ask but stopped himself when he looked at Meta Knight, who was also holding a purple and black glow stick. "You know what- never mind! I should have gotten used to it by now…"
Unknown to them, a lone Awoofy heard the music as it looked through a large hole in the building before scampering off.
"SOMETIMES MY MIND TAKES ME FOR A RIDE!" Umber sang as he shook his head in rhythm. "FEELS LIKE I'M READY TO DIE, I'M READY TO DIE! 'CAUSE I GOT THOUGHTS SO DARK, THEY TEAR ME APART AND I KNOW THAT I'M LOSING CONTROL! I'VE BEEN RUNNING FROM THE ONE IN THE MIRROR! NOW IT'S BEEN FOREVER SINCE I COULD SEE CLEAR! NOBODY CAN HELP! I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN SAVE MYSELF!"
"I HEAR VOICES THAT FILL ME WITH DOUBT!" Umber said. "I TRY SO HARD TO BLOCK THEM OUT! I SIT AROUND AND WONDER WHY! I'M ALIVE BUT I DON'T FEEL MUCH LIFE!"
"OH GOD, OH GOD!" Michelangelo and Donatello sang.
"WHY DO I FEEL SO WRONG?" Umber went next.
"I HOLD ON, HOLD ON!" Leonardo and Rapheal shouted.
"TO ALL HOPE NOT LOST! I WON'T LET IT CONSUME ME! I NEED TO GET OUT OF THIS NIGHTMARE!" Umber shouted into the microphone.
"SOMETIMES MY MIND TAKES ME FOR A RIDE!" He sang. "FEELS LIKE I'M READY TO DIE, I'M READY TO DIE! 'CAUSE I GOT THOUGHTS SO DARK, THEY TEAR ME APART AND I KNOW THAT I'M LOSING CONTROL! I'VE BEEN RUNNING FROM THE ONE IN THE MIRROR! NOW IT'S BEEN FOREVER SINCE I COULD SEE CLEAR! NOBODY CAN HELP! I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN SAVE MYSELF!"
"SAVE MYSELF!" The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles yelled as the intensity of the music increased.
As Strange was beginning to vibe to the music with Meta Knight and Jack Skellington, they heard a low rumble. Immediately, they turned their heads towards the entrance of their hideout before they saw the Beast Pack charging before them. Panic took hold as they realized that the loud music had attracted them and quickly prepared themselves for battle.
However, the Beast Pack rushed past them to their confusion before they turned around. Their panicked faces turned into bewilderment as they saw the Beast Pack surrounding Umber and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with glow sticks and fake long wigs.
"It's a miracle that I've not gone insane yet…" Strange muttered to himself as he saw the Awoofies waving their glow sticks and the Rabiroos banging their heads with the fake wigs.
"SOMETIMES MY MIND TAKES ME FOR A RIDE! FEELS LIKE I'M READY TO DIE I'M READY TO DIE!" Umber screamed as the music and singing intensified.
"SOMETIMES MY MIND TAKES ME FOR A RIDE! FEELS LIKE I'M READY TO DIE! I'M READY TO DIE!" Umber sang louder. "'CAUSE I GOT THOUGHTS SO DARK, THEY TEAR ME APART AND I KNOW THAT I'M LOSING CONTROL! I'VE BEEN RUNNING FROM THE ONE IN THE MIRROR! NOW IT'S BEEN FOREVER SINCE I COULD SEE CLEAR! NOBODY CAN HELP! I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN SAVE MYSELF!"
"I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN SAVE MYSELF!" He sang the last verse as the Beast Pack roared in excitement.
MUSIC: END
I must say that was pretty impressive coming from a diminutive lifeform like you!
Pain entered Umber, Meta Knight, Strange, Jack, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' heads as they realized that the Ultimate Lifeform had found them once again.
You realized that you are no match for my power with that poor excuse you call music.
"I know…" Umber admitted as he endured the pain. "But I am still clinging onto hope that my girlfriends and her team will come and stop you!"
"Hahahahaha! We shall see young Lightwave! I cannot wait for you to break!"
The pain subsided as everyone regained their senses. They noticed that the Beast Pack had already left, leaving them in their hideout.
Immediately, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles rushed towards Umber as he collapsed on his knees.
"You okay man!" Michelangelo spoke with concern as he lightly nodded his head.
"That dirty coward! He should've faced us like a real man instead of hiding in his corner like a coward!" Rapheal growled.
"We cannot withstand the barrage forever…" Strange frowned. "It's only a matter of time if one of us gets brainwashed."
"I know…" Meta Knight said as he looked at Umber with worry. "We can only hope that help will soon arrive."
"Xena… Yagami…" Umber said silently as he closed his eyes. Exhaustion from the mental attack took its toll as he became drowsy. A single tear fell from his right eye as he spoke his last words. "Please… save me…"
Back in the theater…
BGM: Accordion Brumm (Hollow Knight)
A giant crimson sphere of flame floated above the theater, which showed the exhausted Umber Lightwave, faded away. The instruments died down as Grimm lowered his baton.
The audience roared in applause as they clapped and cheered. The candles and torches within the theater ignited with red fire once more as Grimm bowed.
"Ladies and Gentlemen!" Grimm's voice bellowed throughout the theater as he stood up and the audience immediately silenced. "I am delighted to perform for you all today. But this is the end of our symphony… For now."
"Until the curtain rises once again…" Grimm said as the red velvet curtains fell and the red flames began to fade. "We shall meet again… Once the flames of old are gathered, our next act will play…"
The audience and Grimm disappeared in red smoke and fire as the theater was silent once more.
However, upon the stage that Grimm once stood, there was a small table with a chessboard on top of it. Seven chess pieces were placed there with the rest of the pieces lying on the table. Yet, the faces of the seven pieces were most peculiar as they showed the faces of Ruby, Chiaki, Hajime, Makoto, Sora, Ventus, and Umber.
"May we meet in the world of Dreams and Nightmares!"
Well that's the end of this chapter and I apologize if it was too long for your taste. And to be fair, it's Fantasia, it's supposed to be long.
Ibuki: Yeah, but Ibuki's sad that Ibuki's not the main character for this!
Gah! Ibuki, what the hell are you doing here?!
Ibuki: Ibuki decided to drop in after you did not include Ibuki in this chapter!
But didn't I include you in Tik Tok?
Ibuki: Yeah, but you just put in "Almost all the Ultimates" but you did not specifically say who.
You have a point there…
Deadpool: Don't worry the author will make it up to you by bringing you in the next chapter of Fantasia!
Wait, what-
Ibuki: Oh yea, you'll do that author-san won't you~? *initiate puppy eyes*
Sure, sure. As long as I get suggestions and constructive criticism on what songs they want me to put in and what I should improve on to make this work.
Ibuki: Awesome! Ibuki will be right back to get her guitar! *leaves*
Deadpool: *whispers* Should we tell her that she might not appear in some or most of the songs and music?
I rather not break her heart. Or face her wrath…
Deadpool: Well you're on your own on that one.
Yeah…
