I do not own DxD and RWBY
-xXx-
Crickets buzz as the group of five walked to a rural village.
The air is humid and hot which forced some of them to loosen their clothes.
They arrive at the village with a dog barking at them and met a man smoking and drinking by himself.
"Excuse me…"
"What do you want?" the man replied with his native togue.
"Do you notice anything strange in here?"
"The only strange is you foreigners. In the middle of night to boot!"
Jaune can only sigh at the drunkard's antics. And trying his best not to kill the man for ogling the females of the group.
Jaune stepped in the way of the view of the ladies as the drunk wanted to complain but held his words as Jaune presented a stack of cash.
"Again, did you notice anything weird?"
The man, suddenly sobber replied, "yes. Those who still believe in the superstitious, which also includes me, partially, has felt that there are sightings of Tuyuls recently, and has cause some trouble here and there."
"Tuyuls?"
"Think of… well. How can I explain." The drunk mumbled, "small creatures which acts like the 'runner boy' of mages in our culture."
"Like a goblin?" Sieg asked
"Goblin?" the drunk asked back. Clearly have no idea what a goblin is.
"Alright, do you know where they might be?" Jaune asked.
The drunk merely pointed at a mountain not too far from the surrounding villages, "You plan to hunt these monsters?"
"Correct."
"Goodluck then. I advise you do it in the morning; these fuckers are weaker by day."
"Know any inns?"
"There is a tourist inn by the next village."
"Thanks" Jaune finished as he tossed a stack of cash to the drunk and made his way. Said drunk gingerly took the cash, then gave one more look at Lavinia's ass and took a shot of his drink.
"Damn, sometimes I just want to butcher perverts." Lint said as they walked towards the next village, "imagine if he knew we are nuns!"
"I am not…" Lavinia said
"I mean most of us!"
"You say that, but you are not dress as one." Jaune commented.
"You know this is our uniform."
"… and the fact that this world has weird physics" Jaune gave a deadpan voice as the entire group chuckled
"Hehehehe… so that if why you are so allergic to woman's breast," Jeanne gave a coy smile, "your world is more conservative than ours."
"Hey, there are many who knows how to flaunt their assets in my first world, but this one feels like it deliberately try to show off a females goods. Even nuns of this world feel like a cock tease."
"Honestly Jaune, I never understood how you ever get turned on by the nuns wearing robes" Sieg said, "but after telling us a bit of Remnant, I actually feel that your standards are expected to be abnormal."
"There is nothing normal with clothes sticking to a female's shape like a second skin…"
"And there is nothing normal for clothes to not act like a second skin in your world." The three females reply.
"Okay, how about this." Jaune present his arms to present himself, "how the hell does my vest and shirt can't outline my abs?!"
"Your point?"
Then Jaune pointed at Lint, "how does yours outline your abs?"
"This is a bodysuit…"
Jaune said sighed, "okay, how the hell can a straight blouse, bodysuit, and dress cup your breasts like a bag?"
The girls continued to look confused, until Sieg spoke, "Ohhh…. I think I know where you are going. How can girl's outfits shape their body so well, but men's clothes can't."
"Correct! And Lint wears my shirts, yet it still cups her tits too well."
"Sorry what?" Lint was lost.
"Sister, I literally carry four claymores in my jacket," Sieg then presented his straight jacket, "how come my jacket doesn't outline my weapons?"
"I don't get it."
"You know what, this argument is like asking why gravity pull things down. Nevermind." Sieg gave up.
"Just think of it like this, girls, this world has a 'devil's charm' on every woman." Jaune too gave up.
The group finally arrived at a village which can be considered as the commercial district of the rural area. After renting a Family Room good for ten.
But they get no sleep
"Okay gang, here is the plan." Jaune announced as his phone glowed and displayed a hologram of the area, "These mountains has ten population centers spread away from each other, and considering what happened last time, I believe they will throw the same attack tactic they did back in Germany; Lavinia, you will stay here and observe the mountain when we get in, your mission will be to defend the villages with your Absolute Demise; make a huge wall around the maintain… I think your Longinus can do that."
"It can… and more."
"Good, Sieg you will be partnered with Lavinia; incase of monsters pass through the ice barrier…"
"… slice and dice them. Got it" Sieg finished.
"So, the three of us will infiltrate the mountain." Jaune looked at Jeanne and Lint, "worst case scenario is Adam facing us too soon; I will deal with him alone."
"Jaune, you will need help,"
"You two will stop the vampires and Incarnate Anthem"
"I think Incarnate Anthem is more dangerous than Adam, Jaune."
"I can't deny Holy Fire can be hot. But we are not devils, and you and Jeanne can counter it with your Dainsleif and the ice swords of Blade Blacksmith; I strongly believe in your skill and teamwork to outpace Walburga, however I do not think you understand how dangerous Adam can get."
"True," Jeanne nodded, "you all of a sudden displayed speed rivaling senior exorcists last time I saw you fight Adam, and I am correct to assume that he is faster than you."
"Unfortunately. I was the tank of the team…"
"A rather fast tank."
"And the Calvary is even faster… seriously." Jaune then remembered Ruby and Harriet, "But Lint, if you think the Holy Cross can out pace Dainsleif and you need to spend a year in your lifespan. Retreat."
Lint looked offended, "Hey, I have total mastery over Dainsleif!"
"And your enemy has total control over a Longinus specializing on Fire; if you really need to, retreat."
"Fine."
"So, when do we start?" Lavinia asked.
"Daybreak."
-xXx-
The climb on the mountain was certainly not an easy trip, especially with the moist soil covered with foliage makes taking a step slippery. But it was not bothersome to the trio as the sunrise lit their path.
"…so what happened to Lavender when the Grimm War broke out?" Jeanne asked
"Like the rest of the Arc Family, we participated the war which includes Lavender."
"But… wasn't she born-"
"- with an illness. Yes, but remember Jeanne that we are all unique and special. Due to her circumstance she naturally developed sympathy for the ill and injured which I tell you was unfortunately plenty during the war. So, she opened a chain of field hospitals."
"Hmmm… I am impressed that your entire family had impact, Jaune." Lint said
"Well, we all grew up with ideals of heroism; dad just doesn't want us to be Huntsmen, but that didn't mean helping people has to stop."
"So will dad approve of us doing this mission?" Jeanne asked.
"Oh… he certainly whoop my ass of even allowing the youngest of the family to fight monsters."
"Hey! We are twins! I am not the youngest."
"You definitely are Jeanne: you are still at your 20s while Amber had children already."
"By the way, what did Amber do?"
"She was still a teen when the war broke out, her world like all of us has flip its head. Because of that she wished for the protection of young children who will grow up during the war. Together with Lavender, and some connections through Weiss, she was able to make protection bases away from the war for children; it wasn't perfect, but nothing can ever be with a full conflict with the Mother of the Grimm…"
Suddenly the conversation stop when the sky above turned dark with clouds looming, only providing twilight.
"Looks like they know we are here." Jeanne commented as she summoned her swords. Lint and Jaune brought out their respective sword, as Lint took out an ice blue claymore from her back.
Suddenly, nosing of children laughing eriely echoed in the now dark forest, as small figures of pale looking boys poked out of the bushes and trees.
They are all bald with claws as nails as they slowly scratch the trees as an intimidation tactic.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
Lint easily mowed down four of them with his gun as the first strike and the monsters began to panic! They immediately climbed the tall trees and Lint continued to shoot them; some missed, and some hit the mark. Then the monster leapt from the trees as they desended on their prey. Jaune expanded his shield as it rained monster. The earth then shock at dozens of holy silver swords spurted from the ground, impaling many of the monsters. But some got onto them.
"Get off!" Multiple of these kid monster grabbed hold onto them. One went for Jaune's neck; trying to strangle him! Jaune got the monster's head, and Slammed it to the ground not before stomping it! The others were fairing better as Jeanne conjure fire blades and lit herself on fire while Lint used her pistol to grapple and kill the monsters.
Jaune then grabbed on by the head and threw it to another as the collision made a resounding crack.
Then another wave came.
"Okay this is getting annoying!" Lint bitched
Jaune shield bashed three of the monster into a tree as blood smeared his shield, and while pressing his weight onto the tree, he saw a hounded figure at the distance, quietly speaking in chants he never understood.
Jaune sprinted to the figure in a blur as he finally saw a hunched back old lady wielding arcane magic as his aura tingled against the foreign energy. The figure saw Jaune coming and made a force field. But with momentum at his side, Jaune punched through the spell as his fist slammed at the temple of the mage with a hook.
The mage's brain rattled within her skull, then felt her head being grabbed as Jaune held unto it, and body slammed her to the ground, breaking her fragile bones!
All the monster kids screamed in pain as slowly they turned into shadowy energy before disappearing completely.
"… those got to be the Tuyuls the old man mentioned" Jeanne said.
"Yup." Jaune replied as the entire area experience a frightening chill. From behind them, the saw a huge wall of ice appear, as it surrounded the entire mountain.
"Looks like they are attack the villages." Lint commented.
"Then we have to move."
They soon found a ruin with a huge entrance, once they entered, they found someone there to greet them.
"So, you are finally here…" Adam said as he observed the trio covered in blood. Behind him was the entrance to another room which said room was overflowing with magical energy.
Jaune got into a strong stance with both hands on his sword: His entire body tensed as aura flowed to every cell from his soul.
"Go." Jaune simply say.
"Confident, are you? What makes you not think that I will stab them in their backs while they enter the door behind me?"
"You died at a 2v1 fight, stab one of them, and you get another 2v1."
Adam merely smirk but not insulted in anyway as the girls passed by him and enter the room behind.
Blue eyes stared one another once more as the tension in the air produce an eerie energy.
It felt familiar to Jeanne, but this was new to Lint, she hesitated and look a back. She saw two figures, one she considers as the best man in her life, another as the threat to said man.
The church always told of how intoxicating the energy of the Red and White Dragon Emperors when they are about to fight. Like a calamity about to be unleashed.
The energy these two produced almost mistakenly feel like that, but it felt more refine, more precise, more personal.
It doesn't feel like dragons. It feels like Alphas who survived the wild for so long, experienced hardships, growth, hunger, and pain. Warriors who earned their skills.
They were not dragons. They are lions, bears, wolfs, eagles, owls, sharks, tigers, falcons. And not the supernatural kind, but the Wild and Natural.
They are HUNTERS.
Both Jaune and Adam disappeared. Then appeared once again with a dance of sparks and splashes!
Fast!
Lint couldn't believe her eyes as her boyfriend showcased speed like nothing before! Both natives of Remnant were like phantoms; one moment they clash then they turn into a blur once again. If it weren't for Lint's trained eyes, she would have thought that both were just a blur white and red balls clashing with sparks, but she saw it.
Silver and Red swords clash in extreme speeds rivalling bullets. The swords constantly banging one another that the inexperienced will think that Jaune and Adam are just batting their weapons for show.
But she felt it and saw it… each strike had the intention to kill; neck, joints, spleen, heart, liver, lungs, head, eyes. Each strike had the hunger to cut and pierce through it's opponent, however all of them were blocked and parried at them same time.
Jaune and Adam were striking while defending at the same time.
Then both natives stood still and started their dance of striking and parring on the same spot, their blades moved faster that it couldn't be seen anymore, with the sparks and splashes increasing making look like fireworks show!
Lint then felt a hand on her shoulder.
"We have to go! I am not sure how long Jaune can keep up with Adam."
Lint made one more look at the battling boys and saw that they are now tossing each other through rumble, then to the next room. Disappearing from their sight.
Lint nodded and ran deeper with Jeanne.
