While Weiss and Company Are Heading For Galar
Pyrrha, Ren and Nora watched Jaune training against Link, both of them seeming to be evenly matched. Jaune got in a stance and did a spinning slash attack similar to Link but he blocked with his shield. "Hmph! Twilight Link taught you that pretty well." Link said, slashing at Jaune.
"Yeah, he was a pretty good teacher." Jaune said, blocking with his shield. "You're not half bad either!"
Link smirked as he swung the Master Sword at him, but Jaune would block the attack. "He might have taught you everything he knew, but there's something that he didn't have."
"And what's that?" Jaune asked, parrying the Master Sword and knocking it off Link's hand and just when he thought he won the duel, Link brought out a spear much to his surprise. "What?!"
"I'm not your average swordsman." He said as he quickly thrusted the spear as Jaune blocked the best he could with the flurry of stabs, and then when Jaune was off balance, Link would pull out a halberd and swung it hard enough to knock him to the ground.
"Mmmph!" Jaune winced.
"Oooh!" Pyrrha flinched as Link walked over to him and offered his hand.
"Still, it was a pretty good spar." He said, helping Jaune up.
"Yeah… guess I still need to learn a thing or two about you." Jaune said, rubbing his head and causing Link to chuckle.
"Dang, this Link from his time is pretty incredible." Nora said as NPR approached the two. "But seriously though, where was all this when we fought? You just typically used your sword and bow."
"It is because Master Link prefers swordplay." A voice said as Fi popped out of the Master Sword. "While he is skilled with other weapons, he typically prefers the Master Sword." She said as Link picked it up and sheathed it to his back.
"That makes sense." Ren nodded.
"Yeah." Nora agreed.
"Hmm…" Link folded his arms. "Have you guys ever been to Hyrule before? And I don't mean just the stages, I meant the actual Hyrule."
"I don't think so…" Jaune said.
"I did visit the Twilight era." Pyrrha said. "It was actually very beautiful."
"You went to Hyrule?" Jaune asked in surprise.
"I was curious."
"And you didn't even invite us? That's cold!" Nora said.
Pyrrha sweatdropped. "Sorry, it was a spur of the moment… I didn't even think about it." She said, sheepishly rubbing her cheek while blushing.
"Alright, you owe us a trip to Hyrule!"
"Perhaps we can go to my version of Hyrule." Link offered. "It's vastly different from the Twilight Era."
"Sure, we can go there!" Jaune nodded.
"Hmm… I might have an idea." Fi spoke up. "Perhaps these four could meet the Champions of Hyrule, they might learn something from them and perhaps learn a little magic from them if they desire."
"Magic? We got plenty of magic!" Nora said, activating the Thunder Hand. "I don't what you mean by that, sister! I got electricity roarin' to go! And Pyrrha here has fire from the Fire Brand!"
"That may be true, but do you know how to control it and manipulate it, or do you tend to just brutalize your strength with it?" Fi asked.
"I… uh… I transfer it to my hammer…"
"But is it enough?"
Nora slouched a bit. "Probably not…"
"I could say the same to Pyrrha, but I imagine she is more reserved with it. Perhaps she can manipulate the flames around her and do tricks with it."
"Right… reserved..." Pyrrha said, flashing back on what she did with the Meta.
"Where did this come from?" Link wondered.
"Well, just a few days ago, I sensed magic returning to some capacity in Remnant. Princess Zelda of the Link to the Past era sensed it as well, plus the Princess Zelda of the Twilight era. Of course, there is magic inside the Mushroom Kingdom, but outside of the kingdom, there is nothing. It has been on my mind as of late."
"Ah, so that's why you suggested these four go to the champions." Link mused.
"Indeed."
"Well, alright then… let's head on over!" Link said as JNPR nodded as they walked over to the portal area as they headed over to Hyrule's portal.
"Wait just a moment. You have to change it to your era, Master Link. It's currently set in the Wind Waker era."
"Oh right, Toon's off on a treasure hint with Tetra." Link said.
"So is this like that Pokemon portal where you tell it to go to any of the regions?" Nora asked.
"Actually, it's different for this one." Link said, pulling out the Sheikah Slate and aiming it right at the portal. In an instant, the portal started to glow as they heard the BoTW's "Puzzle solved" jingle. "Ah, there it is. Let's go." He said as they walked in.
Meanwhile, in Hyrule Castle…
BGM: Royal Research Lab (Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity)
"What do you think, do you think maybe I should cut my hair a bit?" Zelda asked.
"Hmm…" Impa put her hand on her chin. "Maybe a little bit off the top…? I dunno, you look cute regardless if you cut it or not."
Zelda blushed. "Well, yeah… but I was thinking maybe I ought to… you know, go for shorter hair?"
"Do I look like a hair stylist to you?"
Zelda turned to the throne. "Father, what do you think?"
"Hmm… personally, I believe it is up to you."
You are no help… Zelda thought to herself, when suddenly they heard chirping as they looked down to see a small Guardian pointing at something. "What is it, Terrako?" She asked as she looked up to see Link and JNPR approaching them. "Oh! Link!"
"Hey there." Link greeted.
"You caught me at a good time, I was about to go into that portal and ask the other two Zeldas for their opinions."
"About what?"
"Do you think I should go for shorter hair?"
Link chuckled. "I think you look fine regardless."
"See? I told ya!" Impa said.
Zelda rolled her eyes and then spotted JNPR. "Oh! My apologies, I didn't see you there." She said. "Link, is this the team you speak highly about?"
"Yes."
"Oh wow!" Zelda smiled. "It is good to see you, team RWBY!"
Link flinched. "Mmph! Princess, the other team!"
"Ooooh… my apologies, team JNPR." She said, sheepishly rubbing the back of her head.
"Ah, don't worry about it! It's all good!" Nora waved it off.
"Welcome to Hyrule, Team JNPR." King Rhoam said. "To what do we owe this pleasure of you visiting us?"
"To see these champions of Hyrule." Jaune replied.
"The Divine Champions of Hyrule?" Rhoam raised an eyebrow.
"It was Fi's idea, your majesty." Link explained.
"Indeed." Fi popped out of the Master Sword. "It is because of magic returning to Remnant is why I suggested it. They might want to learn a thing or two."
"Yeah, but we're not in Remnant at the moment." Impa pointed out.
"It will not hurt to try a few techniques and spells from different worlds." Fi told her.
Impa nodded. "Fair point."
"Miss Nora and Pyrrha already know the Thunder Hand and Fire Brand, but perhaps if they know how to utilize it more, it could be beneficial."
"You do raise a good point." Zelda nodded.
Rhoam nodded. "Indeed. The four champions you are looking for are in Zora's Fountain, Death Mountain, Gerudo Desert and the Rito Village, which is located in the Tabantha Frontier. There you will find Mipha, Daruk, Urbosa and Revali."
"Ah, cool!" Nora nodded.
"Hmm… I think maybe they oughta have a little more than that." Impa said. "You guys have those… uh… communication devices, right?"
"Scrolls?" Pyrrha asked.
"Yeah, that! …Goodness, times have changed if scrolls go from paper to technological machinery." Impa rubbed her head. "I think maybe we oughta give those four an upgrade~!" She said. "Just hand 'em over to me real quick."
"Uh… okay." Jaune said, as they handed over their scrolls.
"Be back in a flash!" She said, doing handsigns before disappearing.
At Purah's workshop…
"Whoa! Impa, you ever heard of knocking?" Purah asked.
"Sorry, but I've got something that you might like."
"Oh?" She wondered as Impa put the scrolls down. "What are these?"
"Scrolls. They come from that other world called Remnant."
"I see…" Purah picked up Jaune's scroll. "Let's see… oh, interesting gadgets here."
"Yeah, so I was wondering if you could upgrade these. Team JNPR'll won't know what'll hit 'em!"
"Okay… so what do you got in mind?"
"Hmm, well, maybe give 'em what you gave Link for his Sheikah Slate."
Purah's eyes sparkled. "Oh! I know what you mean!" She said as she turned around. "Hey Robbie! We got some work to do!" She said as she took off with the Scrolls in hand.
"Knew she wouldn't mind." She said and then disappeared while doing the same handsigns.
At Hyrule Castle…
Impa reappeared in front of them. "Whoa!" Nora yelped.
"Told ya I'd be back!" Impa smiled. "So! We got a plan yet?"
"Well, not yet." Link responded.
"I advise that Miss Pyrrha head to Death Mountain and Miss Nora go to Gerudo Desert. That just leaves Master Ren and Jaune." Fi suggested.
"I can go to Zora's Domain." Jaune said.
"And I will go to Rito Village." Ren said.
"You will need an escort there." Rhoam said. "Considering this is your first time in Hyrule, you will definitely get lost. Not to mention there are monsters everywhere in Hyrule, especially those Lynels and Hinoxes."
"Yeah, the Lynels have been a bit weird lately." Impa responded. "For some reason, just about a few weeks ago, this big hairy man came and challenged a Lynel to a duel. Next thing we know, he's the chieftain of the Lynel clan. I think it was when he was looking for a young girl… Ruby, I think."
All of JNPR sweatdropped. "Yup, that's definitely Blake's father…" Ren quietly said.
"I can take Nora to Gerudo Desert." Zelda said.
"I'll take Pyrrha up to Death Mountain." Link spoke up. Terrako chirped, running over to Link's side.
"I'll take Jaune up to Zora's Fountain." Impa said.
"And I will take Ren up to Rito Village." Rhoam said.
"Are you sure about that, your majesty?" Ren asked with a hint of concern.
Rhoam chuckled. "Don't worry about me." He said, unsheathing his sword. "I can take care of myself just fine."
"…Very well then." Ren nodded.
"Now then, let us be off." Rhoam said and with a nod, they walked out of the castle and headed off to the four locations.

At Zora's Domain…
BGM: Zora's Domain (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)
Impa and Jaune appeared at the entrance to Zora's Domain. "Here we are!"
"Wah!" Jaune took a bit to readjust himself. "Okay… phew…"
"Ah, you'll get used to it." Impa chuckled as they walked through the pathway, where Jaune would notice a few Zoras looking at him before giving him a friendly wave. He awkwardly waved back at them as they made their way to the throne.
"Ah, Impa." King Dorephan greeted. "I see you have traveled here well. To what do I owe this pleasure? Does the princess or the king need something?"
"Not at all. Jaune here is requesting an audience with Princess Mipha."
"I am? Uh… I mean, yeah, I am!" Jaune nodded.
"Young man, why do you seek an audience with my daughter?"
"To… learn a thing or two from her. Magic… yeah, magic!" Jaune stammered a bit.
"Hmm, learning magic from my daughter… I suppose that can be arranged. She is currently looking over Vah Ruta." He said, referring to the divine beast in the mountain. "You will meet her there."
"Alright." Jaune nodded as Impa took him up to the Divine Beast and once they got closer…
"Hey Mipha!" Impa called out to her. "Think you can lower the trunk? We want to talk to ya about something!"
"Be right there!" Mipha's voice called out as Vah Ruta's trunk lowered itself where Impa and Jaune stood on it and then rose to the top where they walked down and saw Mipha at the controls.
End BGM
"Hello Impa." Mipha greeted warmly and turned to Jaune. "Oh, who are you?"
"Jaune… Jaune Arc."
"Oh! It's a pleasure to meet you!" Mipha smiled warmly, causing Jaune to blush at Mipha's smile.
"Um… yeah, likewise." He said.
"I have to say, I've never seen you before. Where are you from?"
"Remnant."
"Oh! The place where Link tends to visit? How wonderful! I've always wanted to take a look around Remnant. I've heard the moon is vastly different than ours." She said. "So, what brings you here to Zora's Fountain?"
"I want to… uh… well… how do I put this?"
"Jaune here wants to learn magic from you, learn a thing or two from you."
"Oh? Well, that sounds lovely!" Mipha smiled. "Although… I would have to test your abilities…"
"Why's that?" Jaune asked.
"Oh, I'm just curious." Mipha smiled.
"Fair enough." He nodded as Mipha guided him down Vah Rudania until they were at the spot where Mipha and Sidon had fought Waterblight Ganon.
"In your natural element?" Impa asked. "Oh dear…"
"What's wrong?" Jaune asked.
"Water is the Zora's natural element. They tend to blend into the water, and they're exceptionally fast." Impa explained. "I hate to say it, but I think you're going to get your butt kicked."
"Oh, don't worry about it, Impa. I'll be okay!" Jaune said as he stepped onto a platform.
Impa immediately grimaced. "I… doubt it." She said as Mipha was on the platform opposite from him as she readied her Lightscale Trident.
"You ready, Jaune?"
"I'm ready." Jaune nodded, readying his sword.
"Then let's begin."
BGM: The Champion Mipha (Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity)
The Zora Champion - Mipha
Mipha dove into the water and disappeared from Jaune's eyes as he looked around. Where'd she go? Jaune wondered as Mipha emerged from the water behind Jaune and then leapt into the air. Jaune turned around as he tried to block, but Mipha gracefully shot a stream of water at his legs to push him back as she gracefully swung her trident around as he tried to block with his shield but was pushed into the water. She then created a fountain of water as she dove back into the water and then emerged from the fountain, striking Jaune as he was launched into the air as he quickly landed on a platform as he readied himself as Mipha disappeared into the water again and then emerged from the side.
"Hah!" Jaune did a spin slash attack, but Mipha swiftly and gracefully blocked the attack.
Just like Link. Mipha thought as she jumped back and waved her trident to create orbs of water and shot them out at Jaune. Jaune would attempt to block this as he felt the force of the water pushing him back as Mipha dove into the water once more as Jaune tried to locate Mipha as he swung his sword down in the water, but Mipha breached out of the water from behind as Jaune looked behind him as he saw her go over him as she created more water orbs as she gracefully landed in the water as the orbs of water struck Jaune and pushed him into the water, when suddenly a pillar of ice shot out and knocked him high into the air.
"Oooh!" Impa winced as Jaune dropped his sword as it landed in the water while Jaune landed on his back on a platform. He slowly rose and summoned the Rejuvenator as he readied himself and slashed at Mipha as she breached, but she blocked and gracefully landed behind him as he turned around and swiftly swung the Rejuvenator to try and strike Mipha, but she gracefully blocked the heavy attacks. He would attempt to quickly try to swing his axe but Mipha blocked gracefully until she had found an opening and parried the attack and left him open as she got into a stance and unleashed a multi-thrust attack.
"Gaaaaah!" Jaune yelled, as he was thrown into the water.
End BGM
"Yup, I saw that coming…" Impa said as Mipha saw Jaune KO'd in the water as she dove in and brought him to Impa where she then dove into the water and grabbed his sword where she put it next to him. Mipha put her hands together and chanted silently as she put her hands on Jaune's chest, using Mipha's Grace on him.
"Gah!" Jaune sat up, coughing out some water. "What… what the heck just hit me…?"
"I'm sorry… I wasn't too rough on you, was I?" Mipha asked with a hint of worry.
"No, it's fine. It did give me a rough idea on what Zoras are like in their element." Jaune said.
"Oh, good." Mipha smiled. "I should apologize… maybe we should have taken you somewhere where you had more of a chance."
"Nah… I'd probably still get myself knocked out from you." Jaune told her.
"He's definitely right on that." Impa agreed.
"I suppose you're right…" Mipha nodded. "So, what do you want to learn from me?"
"Well, your water elements are definitely graceful, and your healing ability is also nice. Sure, I have my semblance where I can restore people's aura… but I wonder if I can enhance it to where I can fully heal them."
"Hmm, water and healing… I suppose we can work with that." Mipha said. "I will have to enhance your sword in order for you to use water magic."
"Think I could learn it without it too?" Jaune asked.
"Learn water magic without a weapon?" Mipha looked at him in surprise. "Hmm, I suppose that can be arranged…"
"Sorry if I'm asking a bit much…"
"Oh no! Not at all. Don't worry about it." Mipha smiled sweetly at him, causing Jaune to blush.
Goodness, what is it about that smile…? Jaune thought.
"Wonder how the others are holding up?" Impa wondered.
At Death Mountain…
BGM: Goron City (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)
"Ah, Link! Good to see ya, little guy!" Daruk grinned, happily giving him a hug.
"Ack!" Link yelped, trying to squeeze his way out of the Goron's grip.
"Oh… oh my…" Pyrrha whispered, as she had drank a heat resistant potion that Link gave to her so she could easily walk through Death Mountain without having to worry about the extremely hot climate of the volcano.
"Hahaha! Good to see ya again!" Daruk said and dropped him. "So, what can I do for ya?"
"Well, we came over here to see if you can teach Pyrrha a few tricks." Link said.
"Oh? Pyrrha? The little red head?"
"Yes."
"Hmm, she definitely looks to be quite the warrior." Daruk mused. "Where are you from?"
"Remnant."
"Oh! From that other world that the little guy goes to? I've been meaning to check that place out. Heard there's a lot of monsters there. Might give you guys a hand, heheheh."
"Oh, I'm sure we wouldn't mind that." Pyrrha chuckled.
"Now then, what do you want to learn from me?"
"Well… I do have fire capabilities." Pyrrha said, extending her hand and conjuring up a ball of flame. "The Fire Brand, to be exact."
"Oooh! Ah, I get ya, you want to see what else you can do with it!"
"Exactly."
"Now you're talkin'!" Daruk grinned. "Alright, let's see how strong you really are!" He said, pulling out Boulder Breaker.
"W-wait, s-strong?!" Pyrrha whimpered, thinking back on how Link was struggling to get out of Daruk's death hug. "Um…. A-are you sure this is a good idea…?"
"I've seen how strong Link is, but I've never seen how strong a warrior from Remnant is. Come on, it'll be fun!"
Pyrrha sweatdropped. "O-okay… just… just don't go too crazy, okay?"
"Ah, don't worry, I'll be gentle!" Daruk said.
Fi came out of the Master Sword. "There is a 99.01% probability that Miss Pyrrha will not win this duel." She said. Terrako let out a chirp in response. "99.99%? Yes, that does seem to be more likely."
"Oh, have faith in her, you two." Link told them, though he did look a bit worried.
End BGM
BGM: The Champion Daruk (Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity)
The Goron Champion - Daruk
Daruk ran over to Pyrrha and slashed at her, but she quickly blocked with her shield. However, the sheer force of his strength was enough to get her on one knee. She let out a wince as Daruk attempted to slash down at Pyrrha, but she used her semblance to stop his sword. "Oh?" Daruk wondered as Pyrrha stood up and slashed at Daruk a few times before throwing a fireball at Daruk. "Heh! That tickles." He said, causing Pyrrha to pale.
Just how strong is this guy?! Pyrrha thought as Daruk slashed down to create slabs of lava to rise out of the ground as Pyrrha glanced at these rocks as she tried to jump back from Daruk slashing at her. He then clenched his fist while raising his arm proudly, as the slabs of lava exploded. "Aaaagh!" Pyrrha cried out as Daruk rolled himself into a ball and charged up Daruk's Protection as he lunged directly at Pyrrha as she tried to escape, but Daruk slammed into her. "AAAAAAAGH!" Pyrrha cried, slamming into a rock wall as her aura dissipated as a result as she fell flat on her face.
End BGM
"Ooooh!" Link and some Gorons winced at this as Link and Terrako were right by Pyrrha's side as Link pulled out a fairy as it circled around Pyrrha.
"Mmm…" Pyrrha slowly rose from the ground.
"Aheheheh… sorry about that." Daruk said, sheepishly rubbing the top of his head. "Sometimes I don't know my own strength."
"That… that was gentle…?" Pyrrha winced.
"Yup!"
"I… I see. I can see why you're the strongest here…"
"Here, I'll make it up for ya." He said, pulling out two slabs of meat. "Here ya go, Prime Rock Roast!" He grinned, as Link drooled at the sight of the Rock Roast.
"Oh maaaan…" Link said as Pyrrha was handed some Rock Roast while Daruk gave one to Link which he immediately started chowing down. Pyrrha hesitated, looking at the rocks on the meat and looked back at Link who was happily enjoying it. If he liked it, then surely it's not as bad as it sounds or looks. She slowly took a bite and to her surprise, it actually tasted pretty good.
Hmm, I thought for sure she would have declined. Fi thought. I guess she didn't want to be rude.
"So! What do you want to learn from me?" He asked as Pyrrha finished her meal. "Besides fire manipulation, I'll teach ya that!"
"Well… maybe you can also teach me how to conjure up that shield of yours?"
"Oh, you mean Daruk's Protection? Ah… here's the thing… it's hereditary." He said.
"Oh…"
"Not to worry though!" Daruk grinned. "We'll find something that'll be just like that!" He said, giving her a nice slap on the back that caused her to fall on her hands and knees.
"Mmmph!" Pyrrha winced. "Ow…" She groaned. I wonder how the others are doing…
At Rito Village…
BGM: Rito Village (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)
"You want me to what?" Revali asked, his wings folded with a hint of annoyance in his voice. "You want me to teach this little nobody a few of my techniques? Hmph! And why should I?"
"It could prove beneficial to him and his team." Rhoam said.
"I see… and where are you from, mister…"
"Ren. Lie Ren, I am from Remnant."
"Oh, so you're from that world that Mister Hot Shot likes to go to and show off his pathetic talents."
"He held his own against a man that goes by the name of Sephiroth."
"Pfft, like I should be impressed? If he can fight against this "Sephiroth", then I doubt anyone would have a hard time against him. Heck, I could probably knock down this Sephiroth in two seconds." He boasted. "Hmph, in any case, you think you want to know a thing or two from me?"
"Yes."
Revali scoffed as he pulled out his Great Eagle Bow. "We'll see if you are worth my time."
Rhoam let out an annoyed sigh. "This will end well." He muttered under his breath as Ren readied himself.
End BGM
BGM: The Champion Revali (Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity)
The Prideful Rito Champion - Revali
Revali flew up in the air and shot arrows at Ren, but he quickly rolled out of the way and started shooting at Revali, where he quickly flew around to avoid being shot at as he dive bombed Ren and shot a few arrows, but Ren avoided these as he brought out his Ren Bow and then shot a few arrows, where Revali swiftly avoided the arrows as Ren aimed carefully and fired an arrow that barely grazed Revali's wing. "Hmph." Revali smirked as he dive bombed at Ren as both of them traded arrows, where Ren and Revali would both dodge the arrows as Revali would fly above Ren and drop some Remote Bombs on him. His eyes widened and then dove when the Remote Bombs exploded.
Revali would rush at Ren as he and Ren traded arrows again, this time an arrow hitting Revali's wing as he let out a grunt and then pulled it off of him as he would get close to Ren and then circled around him as a wind gust circled around Ren as he was knocked high into the air as Revali flew up and then flew above Ren as he aimed his bow at him with a smirk, but Ren brought back out his Stormflowers and then shot at Revali. "Mmph!" He grunted as Ren would kick Revali in the beak as Ren gracefully landed on the ground as Revali would fly over and did a corkscrew while firing arrows at him. Ren would swiftly dodge the arrows in a spinning jump… but Revali would pull out a Bomb Arrow and shoot at Ren as he passed him, hitting Ren as he slammed into a tree.
Ren shook it off as he got back up and shot at Revali as the latter would dodge the bullets as one of them grazed his foot as Ren would bring out his Ren Bow and fired arrows at Revali, but he barrel rolled out of the way and fired a Shock Arrow at him, but Ren dodged this and then took notice of the arrow that was planted on the ground as Revali flew past him while dropping more Remote Bombs. Ren would dive out of the way and grabbed the Shock Arrow as he nocked it into his bow and when Revali got close, he fired the arrow. Is that my…?! The shock arrow struck him in his wing as he let out a grunt as he fell to the ground as he pulled it out but landed on his back.
Ren would rush at Revali and then when he got close, he pulled the string back and aimed at Revali, as Revali aimed his bow at him, both of them within point blank range.
End BGM
"Hmph… okay, you mildly impressed me with how decent you are." Revali said. "Hmph, we'll call this one a draw." He pulled his bow away. "You got some sort of fighting spirit in you, and I can somewhat respect that. Alright, I'll teach you something."
"Very well." Ren nodded, putting his bow away.
Rhoam relaxed himself. "That went better than I had anticipated."
At Gerudo Town…
BGM: Gerudo Town (The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild)
"Sav'aaq, Princess Zelda." A Gerudo guard spoke. "What brings you here to Gerudo Town?"
"I'm looking for Urbosa. Is she available?"
"Yes, she is. Go right ahead." She said. "I'm assuming it has to do with her?" She asked, referring to Nora.
"Yes."
"Very well." She nodded as Zelda and Nora walked in.
"Sav… what now?" Nora asked.
"It's their way of saying hello." Zelda responded.
"Ah, got ya." Nora nodded as she spotted the many Gerudo walking around. "Goodness, look at all these ladies…"
"That's because the Gerudo are a tribe of women… and only women."
"Oh! So I guess if a man were to walk in here…" Nora mused. "I'm willing to bet he'd have one heck of a harem!"
Zelda snickered. "No, it's not that simple. There's a reason why I came here with you. You see, according to Gerudo custom, men are not allowed in town."
"…Oh… well, so much for those thirsty guys…" Nora shrugged. "So, wait, if men are not allowed in here… then how the heck does this tribe survive?"
"Oh, they go looking for a man." Zelda explained. "It's not completely different."
"So if they marry, is the man allowed in here?"
"No. The Gerudo will not allow it, no exceptions unfortunately." Zelda said. "The wife is allowed in, but the husband will have to wait outside."
"Oh… I see."
"However, every century, a man is born from the Gerudo where he will rule over the Gerudo as king."
"Oooh, sounds like fun!"
"Yeah, except the last time it happened in Hyrulian History, it nearly brought disaster to Hyrule."
"How come?"
"I'm sure you've met him. His name is Ganondorf."
"Oh… oooooh, yeah, that's bad…" Nora grimaced as they walked up the stairs, but they did not see Urbosa in the throne.
"Hmm? Excuse me, but where's Urbosa?" Zelda asked.
"Oh, she's out in the courtyard training a few soldiers." A Gerudo said.
"Thank you." Zelda nodded as they walked over and saw Urbosa training a few soldiers.
"That's it, keep at it!" Urbosa said.
"Urbosa!" Zelda caught her attention as she turned around.
"Oh, Zelda!" Urbosa smiled warmly and turned to the soldiers. "Keep training." She said and walked over to the duo where Zelda and Urbosa would hug each other. "What brings you here to Gerudo?"
"Ah, Nora here wants to ask a question."
"Nora?" Urbosa turned to her. "Where are you from?"
"Remnant."
"Remnant? Ah, I've heard from Link that it's quite an interesting place. I've always wanted to try out the delicacies over there, not to mention help out on fighting the Grimm." She said.
"I want some help with something…" She extended her hand as her hand crackled with electricity. "I always have lightning magic on me known as the Thunder Hand but… I don't know how to actually manipulate it properly. I'm more of a "hard hitting" type of girl. I want to like, ya know, do awesome tricks with it and not be someone who just shoots lightning bolts out of my hands or give my weapons a boost…"
"Ah, you came to the right vai." Urbosa said. "Sure, I'll help you out. In fact, I know of a place where we can help you out."
"You do?" Nora perked up.
"Of course. Vah Nabooris. We can go there on a sand seal."
"Great! …What's a sand seal?"
End BGM
A few moments later…
"Okay… uh… what's with the shield?" Nora wondered as she was given a shield.
Urbosa chuckled. "You'll see."
"Oh, I see Riju taught you something before she went back to her timeline." Zelda said.
"We did spend some time together before we purged Calamity Ganon, after all. She taught me everything she knew about Sand Surfing."
"That makes sense." Zelda nodded.
"Alright, now let's go." Urbosa said as the seals started to move.
"Whoa! WHOOOOOA!" Nora yelled as she was surfing while being pulled by the Sand Seal. "WHAT THE HECK IS GOING OOOON?!"
"This is the fastest way to get to Vah Nabooris! It beats walking." Urbosa said as Nora was screaming the whole way through. "Hmm…" She turned to Zelda. "Your friend is an odd one."
"Well, she is from another world."
"Fair point." Urbosa chuckled.
Later, at Vah Nabooris…
Nora's legs were jelly as she fell on her knees. "Holy… cow… that was so wild…" She said before her eyes sparkled. "I want to do that again! That was actually fun!"
Urbosa raised an eyebrow before having Vah Nabooris lower itself as the women walked in as they found themselves in the main center of Vah Nabooris, where she and Riju had fought Thunderblight Ganon. "And here we are."
"Coooooool!" Nora said.
Urbosa turned to Zelda. "You might want to get out of the way, little bird. Things are about to get electrifying."
"Okay." Zelda nodded as she climbed up until she found a ledge to sit on and watched the two.
"Now then… before we get started, I want to see what you're capable of." Urbosa said, readying her shield and her Scimitar of the Seven. "I just want to see what I'm working with here."
"Alright, you got it!" Nora nodded, readying her hammer.
A hammer? Interesting… Urbosa thought.
BGM: The Champion Urbosa (Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity)
The Gerudo Warrior Champion - Urbosa
Nora rushed at Urbosa and swung her hammer down, but Urbosa swiftly blocked with her shield and then counter attacked as she snapped her fingers as a lightning bolt struck Nora, but to Urbosa's surprise, Nora absorbed it. "Thanks for the boost!" She smirked and rushed at Urbosa.
So she can absorb electricity… good to know. She thought as Nora swiftly hammered her down, but Urbosa gracefully backflipped as she ran over and slashed at Nora, where she was able to block the attack but Urbosa would swiftly knee her in the gut and then flip kicked to knock Nora back as she ran at her and gracefully slashed at her to knock her away. Nora would jump into the air and try to hammer her down, but Urbosa gracefully spun around to dodge as she was behind Nora and slashed at her from behind.
Nora turned around and quickly swung her hammer, but Urbosa would dodge this and gracefully countered that knocked Nora back as she took a step back and changed it to its grenade launcher form and shot out grenades at her, but Urbosa would block with her shield. The force of the explosions were enough to push her back but she kept steady as Nora would change it back and swung her hammer wildly but Urbosa would quickly sweep kick to knock her to the ground and then slashed upward to disarm Nora as her hammer landed near her. Nora responded with by summoning her Valkyrie Club A club? Urbosa wondered as Nora would jump up and swing her club, but Urbosa snapped her fingers as Nora would be frozen in Stasis as Urbosa would charge up an attack and slashed rapidly at Nora before snapping her fingers again as Stasis was deactivated and Nora was sent flying away and dropping her club.
"Rrrgh…!" Nora activated her Thunder Hand as electricity coursed through her hands and she launched herself toward Urbosa as she punched her, but Urbosa would dodge these gracefully as Nora would aim her hand at Urbosa and fired lightning bolts, but Urbosa would aim her Scimitar and let it absorb it.
"Now I see what you mean." Urbosa said, snapping her fingers as Nora was caught in stasis as Urbosa would turn Nora around and put her into a hold as she deactivated Stasis.

"Wha…?! What happened?!"
"Now I know what I'm working with." She said, releasing Nora. "You mainly focus on lightning punches and firing straight lightning bolts. Perhaps we can manipulate your Thunder Hand where you can unleash sheer greatness with it. Manipulate it to where you can strike foes with the art known as electricity. Also, your fighting style is completely wild, which it's not necessarily a bad thing, but you leave yourself wide open to attacks. Perhaps we can slow you down and calm yourself before you get yourself killed."
"Oh… okay, that's good to know." Nora nodded.
"Now then…" Urbosa chuckled. "Let's get started."
A few hours later…
BGM: Push Forward (Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity)
Jaune rushed at Impa, quickly slashing at her as she quickly blocked the attack as she kicked him back as Jaune aimed a metal blue glove at her, which was a Zora Glove that the Zoras had crafted for Jaune as he fired balls of water at Impa where she quickly slashed the water balls as he lifted his arm up as some water from Vah Ruta rose up as he threw it at Impa, forcing her to teleport away from the raging water as Jaune gripped his sword with the glove as a watery aura surrounded the sword as he swung the sword down, sending watery waves that acted similar to Link's Blade Beams and Skyward Strikes. Impa would he pushed back from the first wave as she was struck by the other waves as she was knocked on her hands and knees. Jaune would immediately by by Impa's side as he pressed a button on the glove as a healing green aura surrounded his glove and then placed it on Impa to heal her up.
"Thanks." Impa nodded as Jaune took a step back as Impa rushed at Jaune and would try to slash at him, but with Jaune's other glove in his other hand, he conjured up a water force field that blocked Impa's attacks. Impa would disappear, then reappeared behind Jaune as he turned around and moved the shield with him as she struck the shield.
"There, you've got it!" Mipha praised. "Those Zora Gloves can help control your water and healing powers. In time, you will be able to use these without the gloves!"
Pyrrha…
Pyrrha clapped her hands, as a fiery ring surrounded her feet as her eyes glowed orange as she as fire shot out from the ring. Link would rush over and slash at Pyrrha, but the fiery ring pushed him back as the fire ring disappeared, then Pyrrha manipulated the fire in her hands to form a spear as she threw it at Link, but he quickly rolled out of the way as he raised his arm up and threw a Skyward Strike at her, but she snapped her fingers as a fiery forcefield surrounded her as she aimed her hand at Link as a fiery forcefield surrounded Link.
"Yes! The Nikos Protection is working!" Daruk cheered as Pyrrha manipulated the flames around her and manipulated it into a dragon as she floated up by using the flames to slowly boost her up from her heels as the dragon circled around the group as the dragon looked strikingly similar to Volvagia. Link looked at the fiery dragon in awe as it dissipated as Pyrrha gently landed on the ground. "Keep that up and you'll do all sorts of amazing tricks with your Fire Brand!"
Ren…
Revali fired arrows at Ren as the latter had his eyes closed, but then he opened them and thrusted his hand at the arrows, as there was a strong gust of wind that pushed the arrows away. He then closed his eyes and then launched himself high into the air with wind propulsion underneath his feet. He then pulled out the Ren Bow, aiming directly at Revali as he fired arrows that he manipulated from the wind as they circled around Revali before the arrows disappeared. Ren then brought out Stormflower as he held the triggers and shot out a flurry of bullets that spun around like in a tornado as Ren gracefully landed.
"Not bad. Keep that up and you'll be decent enough to possibly keep up with me." Revali said as Ren nodded.
"To think in just a few hours, he mastered wind manipulation." Rhoam said in awe.
"Heh, where else can you teach someone something incredible in a few hours. I'd like to see those Remnant hot shots try something like that in a few hours without the guidance of their glorious champions."
Nora…
Nora got in a stance as she was facing Zelda, her eyes glowing blue as electricity was shooting out of the corners of her eyes as her hair started sticking up. Zelda quickly called out a walking Remote Bomb as it walked toward Nora as she snapped her fingers as a lightning bolt struck the Remote Bomb from above and exploded the bombs. Zelda quickly dove out of the way as she pulled out a metal box from nowhere and threw it at Nora, but she zipped out of the way as she extended her arms out before clapping them to make a monstrous thunder clap as a shockwave surrounded her and it grew in size as it hit Zelda where it zapped her away but she shook it off.
Urbosa ran toward Nora and slashed at her, but she lightning kicked her to knock her away as the force was enough to knock her scimitar off of her. Nora aimed her hand at it as the electricity wrapped around the sword and brought it toward her as she held the Scimitar of the Seven and pointed it at Urbosa. Urbosa formed a proud smirk on her face as Nora tossed it to her as she then aimed her hand at her hammer where her electricity would bring it over to her. She rushed at Urbosa and delivered short powerful swings that would cause Urbosa to nearly fall on her knee. Nora zipped away a good feet and then switched it to her grenade launcher as she fired grenades that would explode into bursts of electricity that struck Urbosa.
"Heh, now this is more like it." Urbosa chuckled. "Nora, you've definitely improved."
Nora flashed a toothy grin, her eyes going back to normal and her hair went back down. "Aw, thanks Urbosa!"
End BGM
Later, back at Hyrule Castle…
"Thank you everyone for helping us out." Pyrrha smiled.
"Yeah, it was actually pretty fun!" Jaune said.
"Ah, don't mention it! Ahahaha!" Daruk grinned. "If you want to learn a few other tricks, ya know where to find us!"
"Indeed." Urbosa nodded.
"Right, let's head back." Ren said as they started walking back to the portal.
"…Why do I feel like we're forgetting something?" Impa wondered.
"WAAAAAAAAAAIT!" A voice yelled as they turned to see Purah and Robbie running in.
BGM: Royal Research Lab
"You can't leave without your new and improved scrolls!" Robbie said. "They are our most brilliant masterpieces if I do say so myself!"
"Aw yeah, check it out~!" Purah said, doing a pose while handing them their scrolls as they would see Runes were added to their scrolls.
"Whoa!" Nora exclaimed and checked her teammate's scrolls. "They're all the same! Bombs, magnets, a lock and a snowflake!"
"Remote Bombs, Magnesis, Stasis and Cryonis." Purah corrected. "I mean, if these guys over here can add variety to the runes, then perhaps you four can do the same. Go wild!"
"Sweet, thanks!" Jaune nodded.
"You're welcome! Not too shabby if we saw so ourselves!" Purah chuckled.
"Oh! I just thought of something." Zelda said, pulling out her own Sheikah Slate. "How about a picture to remember us by?" She offered.
"Yeah! That'll work!" Nora grinned as Impa made a clone of herself as the clone took Zelda's slate as they all gathered around.
"Yeah, group photo!" Daruk said, wrapping his arms around everyone as everyone let out a yelp as the clone took the photo as everyone had surprised looks on their faces.
Zelda let out a giggle as she took the Sheikah Slate and linked it up to their scrolls. "There, now you can always look at this in your photos!"
"Awesome!" Nora grinned. "Come on guys, let's go show team RWBY our new stuff!" She said and took off.
End BGM
"Wait up!" Jaune said as they ran back into the portal where they soon ran out of the Smash Mansion shortly after.
"Alright, if I were team RWBY, where would I be?" Ren wondered as they saw a bright light in the distance.
"Ooooh, I think Ruby's using her silver eyes!" Nora said.
"Or it could possibly be Summer." Ren pointed out.
"You wouldn't think they would bring Weiss in danger because of her leg, would they?" Pyrrha wondered.
"Nah, I'm sure Weiss is home safe and sound." Jaune said.
"Yeah, it's not like Weiss is getting herself killed or anything!" Nora said as they ran off toward the light in the distance.
Originally, JNPR was gonna seek guidance from the spirits of the four Divine Champions. Alas... Age of Calamity happened. Ah well, it didn't hurt the idea at all, just a minor tweak!
EDIT: I just noticed Mipha asking Jaune "What brings you here to Remnant" instead of Zora's Fountain. Whoops... I fixed it!
