1 Week and 2 Days After the Universe Was Restored
BGM: Solo Menu (Kid Icarus: Uprising)
Pit rested on his back, looking up into the depths of space with his leg on his knee and his hands behind his head. He had finished training his men for the day, so he was taking some time to himself. However, his mind was on Ruby. "Hmm…" Pit wondered to himself.
"Thinking about Ruby again?" A voice asked as Pit looked behind him and saw Palutena approach him.
"Heh, that obvious, huh?" Pit chuckled.
"Well, you obviously think about her every day, so of course it was obvious." Palutena giggled. "So, what'ya planning for this time? Making out with her? Taking her on a date to a fancy restaurant?"
"You know Ruby's not one for being fancy… that's not really her thing."
"True, but you'll never know. She might surprise you one day."
"I guess." Pit chuckled and then sat up. "No, the thing is, I'm trying to decide what to give her."
"Ooooh, you want to give her a gift, eh?"
"Yeah! I want to give her something that lasts longer than flowers or cookies. I know I gave her that Chibi-Robo figurine back at Delfino and I know she has it in her room."
"Didn't you give her the real deal by accident?"
"I did… not like Ruby minds." He said with a chuckle, picturing Ruby's reaction when she plugged him in.
"Oh my gosh, he moves! Oh my gosh, he's adorable! Pit, you're awesome!"
"He really keeps their room tidy…" Pit chuckled. "But I want to give her something special that she'll like."
"Well, why not just go out and look around? Something that speaks to you that she'll love."
"Luckily Ruby's easy to please." Pit chuckled as he shot up. "I'll go take a look around!"
"I'll give you the shortcut." Palutena said, summoning her staff.
"Oh, that won't be necessary… I'll just take the port-" Palutena's staff glowed as Pit was surrounded in a heavenly light. "-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
"You're welcome~!" Palutena giggled.

In Toad Town…
BGM: Toad Town (Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)
Pit landed on the ground, just a few feet away from an intersection. "I could've gone into the portal…"
"Oh, thought you could use a shortcut to Toad Town." Palutena giggled.
Pit let out a chuckle. "Thanks, Lady Palutena." He said as he wandered around town. "Alright, let's see, what to give Ruby…" He wondered as his eyes slowly turned to Coconut Mall in the distance. "Mmm, not yet." He said as he continued walking until he came across a store.
"Lakitu's Gift Shop? Ah, perfect!" He grinned as he walked in.
"Welcome!" Lakitu greeted warmly. "Feel free to look around!"
"Say uh, you wouldn't know anything about finding a gift for a sweet red head, would ya?"
"Ah! Going to give something to the Rose, eh?" Lakitu grinned. "Well… as a matter of fact…" He floated over to the back. "We just got in some shipments of figurines just the other day!" He said as he pulled in a box and put it on the counter. "RWBY got so popular here that they decided to make something special just for them!" He reached into the box and pulled some out. "Ta-dah! RWBY Amiibo!" He said, putting down the Amiibo of Ruby, Weiss, Blake and Yang.
"Oh wow! So what do they do?"
"Well, we all know if you put them in Smash, the Amiibo figure comes to life and you can train it to your hearts content until they become a vicious monster. Who knows what feature these will hold if you take it somewhere else!" Lakitu chuckled. "And that's not all~!" He said as he reached into the box. "You're familiar with the nendoroids, right?"
"Those little chibi statues? Of course! I think I saw Samus holding one the other day…" He said.
"Well, get a load of this!" He said, pulling out RWBY nendoroids. "Ta-dah!"
"Oh my! They're adorable!" Pit said as he looked at the Ruby one. "How much for the Ruby one?"
"Well, I haven't put it on display yet, so… hey, it's on the house!" He grinned.
"Sweet!" Pit happily took it as he put it in a plastic bag. "Thanks!" He waved and walked out.
"You're welcome!" The Lakitu waved back and sighed happily. "Ah, young love."
"Is that all you want to give her?"
"Nah, I'm not done yet." Pit said as he wandered over to Coconut Mall while humming to himself, and when he got in there, he looked around the various stores inside. "Let's see… what should I give Ruby…" He wondered as he looked around. "Jewelry… nah, she's not really into that kind of stuff…" He said as he wandered next to a store where he noticed a sign on a window.
"We have hats! Lots of hats! So many hats, you'll practically go to war with it before turning it into a hat simulator!"
Pit sweatdropped. "I don't get it." He said and wandered around. "Hmm, what would she like… I could give her a new cloak, I've noticed it's looking a bit raggedy as of late… oh! I know! I could give her a hair pin!" He grinned.
"Don't those get easily lost?" Palutena asked.
"Oh… right, good point… unless I can get it customizable… oh, man, what to give her. I don't want to just give her a statue of-" He turned his gaze over to a weapon's shop. "Of-… her… duh! Weapons!" He said, lightly smacking himself on the head as he walked in.
"Let's see, what to give her…" He wondered. "She already has a Sniper Rifle Scythe, a boomerang and a Palm…" He looked around the store when he laid eyes on a rocket launcher. "Hmm, a rocket launcher?"
"Eat rockets!" Ruby yelled, pulling the trigger as a rocket went flying, but the recoil sent Ruby falling on her back. "OOOF!"
"Nah, I think Nora would be the one with a rocket launcher." Pit said as he went to a machine gun. "Hmm…"
"WHO TOUCHED MY BABY?!" Ruby yelled as she started firing the machine gun but the recoil would have her pointing up. "Aaaaah!" She yelped as she took out tons of birds by accidents. "Birdie, no!"
Pit shook his head. "Nope, out of the question." He said and then laid eyes on nunchucks. "Hmmm…"
"Oooohaaaaah!" Ruby flailed the nunchucks around. "You can't touch me, I've got nun-" The nunchucks hit her on the head. "OW!"
"Nope! Don't want to hurt herself!" He said as he continued looking. "Let's see… kunai… shurikens… nah, I don't see her going all Ninja Gaiden on her enemies. Lady Palutena, you got anything?"
"How about… oh, what about a mace?"
"A mace?" Pit pictured Ruby using it. "I dunno, doesn't really fit her all that well."
"Good point."
Pit continued to look around where he would notice a toolbox with a wrench next to it. "What the…?" He wondered and read the sign plastered on it. "Build your own sentry?"
"Aw, look at my precious baby!" Ruby giggled at the mini-sentry that she built.
"Hey! Nice harmless toy you got-" The mini-sentry turned around and started shooting. "AAAAAH!"
"Don't you speak ill of my precious!"
"…I don't really see her building something like that." He said and wandered off, then spotting "Customizable Weapons". "Ooooh! That'll do!" He said as he wandered over to see what they had as his eyes immediately spotted shoes hanging on the wall. "Shotgun shoes?" He wondered, picturing Ruby wearing it.
"What's the matter, bitch? You're out of weapons!" Dark Ruby smirked, only to get plastered with bullets from Ruby's heel. "Agh!"
"Not quite!" Ruby smirked, having smoke coming out of her heel after delivering a kick.
"Hmm! There's an idea…"
"I dunno, I can see her accidentally triggering it and wasting ammo…"
"Ooooh, good point."
"Not to mention the recoil would probably do a number on her knees."
"Another good point." Pit agreed as he continued looking. "Wolf Claws: Wear these gloves where you can tear into enemies like a hungry wolf." He read.
"Hooooowl! I'M HUNGRY LIKE THE WOLF!"
Pit sweatdropped. "Not trying to make her vicious." He said as he kept searching where he noticed a Tome leaning on a wall. "Hmm?"
"Is that a Tome? Maybe Robin dropped it there by accident." Palutena said as Pit picked it up.
"Gronnwolf…?" Pit wondered to himself as he opened it up and looked into the pages. "Oh… ooooh… oh my!"
"Oh my goodness!"
Pit's eyes sparkled. "I found it~!" He said as he walked over to the counter. "How much for this?"
"That thing? It's about 500 coins."
Pit reached into his pocket and pulled out about 500 Hearts. "How about hearts instead?"
"Kid, this ain't Valenti-… oh, you're that angel boy that's dating Ruby, right?"
"Yup! I'm giving this to her as a gift."
"Well shoot, don't mind if I do!" He said, taking the hearts. "Enjoy yourself!"
Pit put it in the bag as he walked out. "Alright, I've got everything I need!" He said and walked off. "Hey Lady Palutena, can you take me to Beacon?"
"Sure!" Palutena said as a heavenly light wrapped around Pit as he was taken to Beacon.
End BGM
Pit wound up in a hallway next to RWBY's dorm. He would notice the door was open as he wandered into the room, but didn't see anyone in there besides Zwei who was taking a nap on Blake's bed. Zwei perked up and spotted Pit, letting out a happy bark. "Hey boy." He waved and then noticed movement on the ground as he looked down and saw Chibi-Robo cleaning the floor with a toothbrush. "Hey little guy!" He said as Chibi-Robo turned around and saw Pit, where it happily waved to him. "Do you know where Ruby is at?"
Chibi-Robo nodded and then climbed up on Weiss's desk, then he grabbed a pen and a piece of paper as he wrote something down and gave it to him. "Oh, she's out in the courtyard training? Perfect! Thanks little guy!" He said as he headed off to the courtyard where he would see Ruby practicing her scythe skills. "Ah, there's the light of my life~!" He smiled and walked over to her.
"Hah… hah… still got it." Ruby smiled.
"Pretty impressive scythe play you got there."
"Hmm?" Ruby turned her head and saw Pit approaching her. "Pit!" She beamed. "How are ya?"
"Oh, I'm doing well… I got ya something!"
"Oh?" Ruby wondered as he gave her the bag where she took it and then opened it up, letting out a gasp. "A mini figurine of myself?!" She said, pulling it out. "Oh my gosh, it's a nendoroid! I didn't know they'd make figurines out of us!"
"Apparently, you guys are so popular in the Mushroom Kingdom, they decided to make Nendoroids out of ya." He explained. "Also Amiibo figurines…"
"Amiibo? Huh… well, I guess I can go over and get me one of those." She giggled. "What's this book though?"
"It's a Tome."
"You mean like the ones that Robin, Dorothea and Ilia have?"
"Yup!"
"Ooooh! I can get to make my own fire!" Ruby said as she looked into it, letting out a gasp. "Oh my, this is even better than fire! Pit, I love it!" She smiled, wrapping her arms around him and kissing him, where he returned the affection and kissed her back. "I'll go put these in my room." She said after pulling away.
"You want to go get ice cream?" Pit asked.
"Sure! I'll go get changed into something more casual!" She said and took off running with her gifts in hand.
"Ah, such a cutie." Pit smiled.
"Well, can't say we've seen you around here before." A deep voice said as Pit turned his head and saw CRDL approaching him.
"Hmm? Oh, who are you guys?" Pit asked.
"The name's Cardin, and then are my good friends, Russel, Sky and Dove. We're team CRDL."
"CRDL?" Pit asked, immediately remembering what Velvet had told Pit at the Smash Mansion.
"CRDL is a group of bullies who tend to bully others, especially Faunus."
"Weren't you the one who gave this Cardin guy that Super Carrot?"
"I did, but he somehow got rid of it."
"Why are these guys in Beacon again?"
"Honestly, I'm not sure myself…"
"And you are?" Cardin asked.
"Name's Pit."
"Pffft! Who would name someone like that? I guess whoever came up with that name wasn't very good at naming things. Definitely scraped the bottom of the barrel!" He said as they laughed.
"And just like that… I want to slap him." Palutena said.
"Meh… laugh all you want, but you're not going to get through to me." Pit said as he walked off. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'll-"
"Hey, where are you going, freak?" Russel asked. "Those angel wings make you look weird."
"Yeah, and that squeaky little voice of yours doesn't do you any justice either!" Sky chuckled.
"Oooh, nice one!" Cardin said, fist bumping him.
"Yeah yeah, I've heard it all before." Pit rolled his eyes, completely ignoring them.
"Ah, cheer up!" Cardin said, wrapping his arm around Pit. "We're just having a fun ol' time!" He said. "Besides, not our fault you look like a freak."
"He REALLY needs a good slapping…"
"Right…" Pit said as he managed to squirm his way out of Cardin's grip. "Look, I appreciate your "fun", but I got places to be. In fact, I'm going on a date."
"With who? Your grandmother?" Dove taunted.
"Very funny." Pit rolled his eyes again. "It's actually with Ruby, so if you don't mind…" He started to turn around and walk off.
"Ruby? That little runaway? Pffft, I'm surprised anyone would want to date her after that little stunt she pulled." Cardin said, causing Pit to stop in his tracks. "Then again, you probably picked her up from some garbage area like the street rat that she is."
"What… did you call her…"
"Oh boy…"
"You heard me. She doesn't even belong in a school such as this. She's just a brat. This school has gone down the tubes if they think she's ready to become a qualified huntress." He said, causing Pit's fists to clench, tightening in fury.
"Welp… they're in trouble."
"I mean, if that brat is dating a freak like you, then you two are made for each other. You're a freak, she's a freak for dating you, and to top it all-" Pit grabbed him by the collar. "Mmmph!"
"Don't you dare insult my girlfriend… in front of me!" Pit said, tossing Cardin to a pillar as RDL looked on in surprise as Cardin got up, glaring at Pit.
"You're going to regret that." Cardin glared as Pit got in his fighting stance.
"Bring it."
BGM: Boss Battle 1 (Kid Icarus: Uprising)
Cardin rushed at Pit and swung his mace at him, but he swiftly backflipped to avoid the attack as he looked at both sides to see Dove and Russel rushing at him from both sides as they swung their weapons, but Pit rolled out of the way and kicked Russel on the side as he then summoned the Earthmaul Club and swung it at Dove to knock him away as he turned around as Sky rushed at him and swung Feather's Edge at him, but he blocked it easily and swung at Sky to send him flying.
Cardin rushed at Pit again and swung his mace, but Pit would dismiss the Earthmaul Club as he got ready where Cardin swung down but Pit grabbed his arm as he delivered a swift knee to his gut, making him hunch over as he delivered a good punch to the head to make him fall and dropped his weapon, which Pit grabbed a hold of and looked directly at Russel as he slashed at Pit, but he jumped back and threw Cardin's mace at him, hitting him directly at the head to daze him as Pit summoned a Bomber Arm as he rushed over and delivered a charged punch that gave an explosive attack that sent Russel flying where he slammed into a pillar to knock him out.
Dove swung Hallshot at Pit, but he summoned his Palutena Bow and blocked the attack, before parrying the attack as he then rushed over and delivered a good kick to his knee and then kicked him in the face to drop his weapon. Pit grabbed a hold of it and before Dove could reach for it, Pit tossed it up in the air as he summoned the Flintlock Staff and shot at Hallshot a few times, the bullets piercing through and shattering the blade before delivering another knee to his gut and then turned the Flintlock Staff around and thrusted it into his face with the butt of the staff to knock him down.
He would then see Sky rushing at Pit again and slashed at him, but Pit would dodge to the left and then grabbed his arm before swinging him down to the ground to KO him. He would then hear a war cry as he turned to see Cardin running over and delivering a punch, but Pit would block with his arms and then countered by slugging him in the gut and then summoned his Upperdash Arm, delivering a powerful blow that knocked Cardin up in the air as he would slam into the ground on his back.
End BGM
"Let that be a lesson to you." Pit said, putting his Arm away.
"Ooogh…" Cardin groaned.
"Well! That was entertaining to watch."
"Oh Piiiit~!" Ruby's voice said as Pit turned around to see her happily walking over to him in her Galarian clothes. "Sorry I'm late, Zwei was wanting to play."
Pit chuckled. "It's fine."
"What happened to them?" Ruby wondered.
"Oh, I was just showing them a thing or two about a lesson in humility. No big deal." Pit chuckled.
"Oh?" Ruby giggled. "Well, good for you to teach them that kind of stuff." She smiled and took his hand, kissing him on the cheek. "So, shall we?"
"Of course!" Pit smiled as the two of them headed off to Toad Town where they would happily eat ice cream together.
Let it be known that if you insult Ruby in front of Pit... it's gonna hurt.
Edit: Man, i'm bad at remembering to give people credit for these kinds of ideas... I was planning on to several days ago, but today, it just slipped my mind. This idea was mentioned on the forum by Darkrebellion04 and I went "Oh! That sounds like a fun one!" So yeah, shoutout to him!
