Flash back
In a dark night on a rooftop... the young hellspawn was sitting on the ground while the back of a caped crusader is faced towards the young vigilante.
Aj: "So we're just waiting huh?"
The crusader spoke in a rough and razor like voice of compared to a metal it'll be tougher than steel.
Crusader?: "It's patrol. If it bores you, you can go back to Brooklyn"
The young and immature man goes on the edge beside the crusader. He looks at him as he acknowledges the symbol on his chest. The big wings, small tail and pointy ears.
Crusader?: "The symbol stands for the quest for justice, and the struggles of good and evil with it"
He answers like he's reading the young man's mind. Aj grumbles.
Aj: "If it's so difficult then why not kill the clown?"
Crusader?: "Your smarter than that aj. Unlike your father and brothers. You know what is worth killing or not"
He glared at Aj in the eyes.
Crusader?: "Evil can be cured like having cold. If you kill evil it'll come back, but if you nurture it'll not gone fully but at least it serves redemption for them. If you kill a killer the number's won't change kill more than 2 then they'll come back and the numbers will stay the exact same and most importantly it's too easy, anything with that price isn't worth it.
Aj nods as he remembers his father's deal.
Crusader: "Only fear and justice can stop evil or crime."
Aj looks at the street in front of them as the symbiote suit puts the mask on him.
Crusader?: "No guns. No killing"
The present
Aj looks at his pistol as it turns into a small puff of green smoke
Aj in thoughts: remember what he says
He thought as he readies himself at the edge of the high ground.
Aj: "No killing. No guns."
With the k8 Letha suit. The green eyes in Aj's mask began to glow. He grips the edge as his cape and the chains that appeared out of the cape began to flow up. He lets out a low and quiet growl as he picks his target to knock down first.
Perry the platypus Faunus came up to the cart of the train.
Perry: "Boss the trains ready for shi-"
He gets cuts off as the hellspawn jumps towards Perry and drags him to the ground as he skids away. He punches Perry on the jaw as his head ricochet from Aj's fist to the ground.
The orange haired man leaps off the cart as he faces Aj. As the thugs aims their weapons at Aj.
Boss?: "Oh and who might this be?"
Like cursing out a hated man the hellspawn slowly turns to the man as he glared at him as Aj squint his eyes as a small steam of green smoke Comes out the eyes.
Aj: "Spawn"
Aj spits out
Aj: "And you?"
He says in a low and somewhat threatening voice. The orange haired man was confused and somewhat offended.
Boss?: "You don't know who I am?"
Aj shook his head keeping his serious look. The orange haired man laughs as he turns to his henchman of thugs.
Boss?: "You hear him?"
His chuckles dies down as he faces Aj.
Boss?: "Man you kids don't-"
Aj: "Are you going to keep talking out of your ass or are you going to give me your name."
Aj says as his serious composure turns into a casual one as the chains disappear and the cape covers his torso and down as he turns to the orange haired man.
Aj: "I mean I'm all for a bad guys cool and badass speech but it's getting old once you hear it too much in movies. Plus you were about to be sassy at me."
Aj points at the man.
Aj: "And I hate that shit"
As Aj lowers his hand the orange haired man grumbles.
Roman: "Fine. I'm Roman torchwick and you. Little shit."
Roman points the end of his cane at Aj as a cross grid pops up.
Roman: "Need to learn some manners."
Aj: "Oooh. What are you going to do shoot me with a tranq dart. Motherfucker I'll still be con-"
With that said a red blast is unleashed by Roman's cane. Aj reacted too late as he is blasted and knocked back to the ground as the burning pain is on his chest where the blast hits him.
Aj: "Fuck that hurts."
He says coughing. As Roman chuckles.
Roman: "You know you talk a lot of shit."
Aj still coughs as he struggles to stand up. But Roman kick him down to the ground.
Roman: "But I got somewhere to be but my friends will keep you company"
He says as he walks to the cart.
Roman: "Ta-ta"
He mockingly says and waves as he hops in the cart and as he tips his hat as the train takes off.
Thug: "You heard the boss"
He said as the remaining thugs began to gang up on aj. Aj stood up straight as chains cover his hands and wrist as he began to slowly walk to them.
Aj: "Let's get this done"
He dashes towards one of the thugs as he throws a jab as the chain breaks and unleash a pulse of necroplasm which pushes away the rest of the thugs.
Thug 2: "What the-"
Before one of them could get up Aj with the other hand punches the thug causing another pulse of the necroplasm and destroying the thug.
Thug 3: "Your out of chains asshole"
He aims his gun at the hellspawn but with in a quick second Aj appears in front of him then throws an overhand knocking him to the ground.
Aj: "Asshole's my word!"
He says the. All of the sudden bullets fly at him but aj reacted quickly as his cape covers him and hardens.
Thug 4: "No where to hide kid."
Thug 5: "Yeah!"
Inside the cape aj pulled a couple of pins. Aj suddenly opened his cape as he threw a couple of stun grenades.
All of the thugs drop their weapons as the effect only lasted for a second. Some picked up the guns while some charged at Aj. A closed fist came to Aj but his cape grabbed the arm of the thug as it threw them to a crowd of thugs aiming their weapons.
Multiple thugs charge at Aj as aj charge back knocking them one by one his cape took care of the thugs behind as Aj threw kicks and punches.
As a brute came towards The hellspawn, Aj grabbed his cape as he fling it to the brute momentarily stunning him. This gives Aj the time to unleash a furry of punches at a neck snapping speeds from the chest, solar plexus, jaw, chin, nose, etc. at the final punches Aj threw a elbow at the brutes side as he picked him up by the legs and threw him to the crowd of thugs.
One of the thugs tries to tackle him but he fails as Aj throws a bat shape projectile.
It continues for a full minute of kicking and punching from different types of fighting styles known and unknown. At one of the thugs retreating Aj shoots out his chain to latch on to him as he pulls the thighs towards him as he dashed towards him, hammer punching his head momentarily being in the air than a hammer punch to the ground.
A sound of a gun clicking was behind Aj but before he could turn around a sound of a caliber was made. As he turned around he sees team Rwby and doctor oobleck (and zwei of course). Blake was the only one who kept her guard as her weapon is drawn up while the rest were looking at Aj's suit in awe.
Blake: "Who are you?"
The k8 Letha suit slowly disloves into Aj's clothing.
Aj: "Just me but listen some dude named Roman-"
Ruby was shocked.
Ruby: "Roman?!"
Aj: "Yes but he's on a train and I don't know what's he's planning!"
Aj thinks for a second before having an unamused face.
Aj: "I have a plan."
Chains wrapped around team Rwby, doc. Oobleck and zwei. Team Rwby were startled as Blake and Weiss started to talk.
Weiss: "Put us down!"
Blake: "What are you doing."
Aj: "Do you trust me?"
Not even a second of hesitation.
Team Rwby: "NO!"
Aj: "Good"
With that said Aj and the rest became a puff of smoke.
The train
Aj, team Rwby, zwei and doctor oobleck appears on the top of the train as Aj held his head as a stabbing like pain ringed in his head. But it didn't stopped Weiss from bickering at him.
Weiss: "What the hell was that!"
Before Aj could respond bullets started to fly at them. Only a stray shot grazed Aj's cheek which caused him to use his cape to cover the incoming fire.
Aj: "Anyone ok?"
He asked as he wipes the green blood off his cheek as it turned red.
Blake and Yang: "Yeah"
Weiss: "Yeah"
She muttered.
Oobleck: "Aj your cheek-"
Aj: "I'll be fine just focus on the task on hand."
As he looks down he began to see what's inside the carts. He could see the shipment, what's inside were android's and mechs.
Aj: "A bunch of nuts and bolts."
He drags his eyes towards the cart more as he sees a device.
Aj: "Oh shit."
Ruby: "What is it?"
Aj: "There's a bomb."
Weiss: "A WHAT?!"
Aj: "We don't have time to react we have to move fast!"
Blake: "But theres white fang members shooting at us?"
Aj looked at Blake with a confused expression.
Aj: "White fang- you know what it can wait I'll focus on covering you guys as we go to the next cart."
Yang: "Wait. Who made you-"
Aj looks at yang.
Aj: "Do you want to get blown up by a bomb?"
Yang stayed silent as ruby spoke up.
Ruby: "I agree to his plan"
Aj nods at ruby as the rest slowly agrees as yang was the last.
Aj: "Get ready"
As Aj uncovers the cape he shot a stray blast of necroplasm between the white fang members, knocking them off the train. The rest of team Rwby with oobleck and zwei jumps to the next cart but when it's Aj's turn the cart detaches as aj jump to the cart but he slipped and grabbed on the edge.
Aj: "Shit!"
He exclaims as oobleck reaches out for Aj's forearm as Aj grabbed his as oobleck pulls him up.
Oobleck: "You broken?"
Aj shook his head.
Aj: "No sir"
Oobleck nods as he grins
Oobleck: "Good"
The two began to hurry to the next cart where team Rwby and zwei were at.
In the front of the train
Roman in the front of the train as a White Fang member rushes in.
White Fang Member: "Boss! He made it on the train! With some help!"
Roman sighs.
Roman: "Then grab some cargo and get them off the train!"
The White Fang member nods and leaves to follow Roman's orders.
Roman: "Man, animals, every one of them."
Roman looks awkwardly at the White Fang member sitting next to him.
Roman: "Not you though, you're, heh, you're great."
Back to our main characters
Aj still hurry's off to the next cart as zwei follows him.
Oobleck: "Aj we got off of the car-"
He was cut off as the hatch pops off as it shows a bomb.
Aj: "They all have bombs"
He yells. As the rest follows aj.
Weiss: "It dosent make sense why would all of the carts have bombs?"
As the previous two carts explode. black creatures began to crawl out of the wholes.
Aj: "That answers your question."
He says with a slight chuckle.
Oobleck: "Roman is leading Grimm to the city!"
Weiss: "What?"
Oobleck: "It's the cars! They detach and explode, creating openings for the Grimm!"
Blake: "That's insane!"
Aj: "Well villains don't have a good reputation of being sane"
As another cart detaches oobleck looks at Weiss, Blake, and Yang
Oobleck: "You three, go below and try to stop those bombs!"
Ruby: "What about us?"
Oobleck: "We're going to stop this train."
Aj uses one hand to rub his temple.
Aj: "Is your head that thick that common sense can't go through it?"
Ruby turns red slightly.
Ruby: "Shut up!"
Oobleck, zwei, Ruby and Aj continue to move foward until a White Fang members start to pilot multiple mechs, and jump to the top of the train.
Oobleck: "Up ahead!"
Aj: "Oh shit"
A mech is seen charging towards them as the sound of heavy metal clanking can be heard.
Oobleck: "We got a problem!"
Aj: "You don't say doc?"
Aj gets ready to blast the mech but oobleck puts his arm up to stop him. Oobleck takes a sip from his thermos before transforming it into its weapon mode, a small flame burning at its tip. Zwei barks, prompting he's ready for an attack. He jumps and flips in the air, and Oobleck bats him, turning him into a small fireball. The mech is seen shooting, only for it to get knocked off the train by the combination attack. The mech tumbles on the train tracks, and explodes when it hits a barricade.
Aj: "That's convenient. Who knew zwei could be a dangerous weapon"
Ruby chuckles but before anyone can say anything another mech appears in front of Zwei, its guns aimed at him.
Aj: "No!"
Aj charges at the mech making it explode on impact with him. He hurry's to zwei as he picks him up.
Aj: "You ok boy?"
Zwei bark's happily as aj lets out a sigh of relief. Before he can know it gunshots of a sniper can be heard hitting the white fang members. He quickly turns to he source as ruby is holding a red rifle.
Aj: "The hell?"
Ruby: "What?"
Aj: "You killed them?"
Ruby: "No I didn't-"
Aj: "Yeah you just shot them! With a rifle!"
Aj practically yelled before oobleck cuts in.
Oobleck: "Look aj to keep it short due to our time, almost everyone has a thing called aura that protects us from damage that might lead us to death physically."
Aj was confused, though he wants to question the hellspawn decided to focus on the mission on hand. Aj nodded silently as the 4 began to fight off the white fang members and some Grimm as oobleck explains aura during the middle of the fight (I'm not gonna write a whole fucking Essay of a power system)
Moments later aj felt a vibration on the cart
Aj looks at the cart as he walks to the hatch and went inside as he sees an unconscious yang on the ground as a split haired girl with pink and brown hair drew out a blade out of her umbrella. Before aj could react a masked warrior haired and clad in red and black comes out of nowhere and knocks the mixed hair girl back. The girl eyes change from brown and pink to white, mirroring her fearful expression. The mysterious swordswoman slowly draws her sword again long and crimson red. Aj who was hiding behind some crates was looking at the sword in awe. The swordswoman holds it up intimidatingly. The girl, realizing the imminent threat before her, wastes no time and disappears in a flash. The swordswoman looks down at the still unconscious Yang, and slashes her sword to the side, opening an eerie red portal. She walks away from Yang and into the portal. Not noticing the woman who didn't left aj began to whisper to himself.
Aj: "Man I gotta get me one of those"
Aj whispered as he walks up to yang as he crouched down.
Aj: "Err what's your name... Oh right Yang"
Aj shook yang awake.
Aj: "Yang wake up"
Aj continue to shake her as the crimson red blade was pressed on his neck. The blade force him to stand up and face the wilder.
Aj: "You care for her. Huh?"
The swords woman stood there silent as yang began to regain her consciousness as she sees her savior and teammate. This cues the swords woman to walk into the portal leaving the scene. Aj was in awe as yang was confused.
Aj in thoughts: Shes so cool. A little edgy but still.
Aj faces yang returning to his neutral expression.
Aj: "You ok?"
Yang nods as she grumbles like waking up from a long nap.
Yang: "Yeah but who is she?"
She says as her voice is all groggy.
Aj: "Dosent. matter, what does matter is that she's not an enemy."
Aj says as he goes to the ladder of the hatch.
Aj: "Come on the rest are probably waiting on top of the carts"
Aj let out a reassuring smile as a yang cracked a small smile as the two climbed on top of the carts. As the two reemerge from the carts aj looked ahead of them. Both Aj and Ruby looks on worriedly as the two young hero's realizes the train is on a collision course with a thick concrete wall.
Blake: "What do we do?"
Aj: "I'll try to stop the train while you two get some sort of cover"
Ruby and the rest nods. Ruby and Weiss smile at each other, and the latter forms an ice shield to protect her teammates, bracing themselves for the impending crash while aj at a fast speed ran to the controls of the train. Aj looked around trying to find the breaks...
He began to call ruby.
Ruby over the scroll: "Uhh... yeah?"
Aj over the scroll: "Does anyone know how to drive a train?"
He panicked as there was a long pause.
Weiss: "I'm sorry WHAT-"
Aj over the scroll: "Wait I found the break"
Aj pulls on the lever as the wheels of the train stop as the train began to skid on impact.
Aj over the scroll: "Brace for impact"
He says as the train crashes to the wall.
30 seconds later
Aj was on the ground next to ruby as he felt a pain stabbing feeling in his head again.
Aj: "Oww..."
He groans as he rubs his temple. He raises up as well as ruby.
Aj: "You good?"
Ruby groans.
Ruby: "Yep"
The two began to sink in the event that is happening. They both hear the sound of an emergency alarm blaring as their vision comes back with buildings into her view.
Ruby turns her head to the lower right and sees Blake and Yang slowly getting back up, her sister coughing as the dust settles. She turns her head again and sees Weiss sitting up against a large piece of debris, who also gives a thumbs up at her team leader signaling she's okay.
Aj rubs his forehead as he sat down as his legs felt like they were hit by an iron bat. He began a to cough as he rubs his eyes.
The team of huntresses and hunter then notice, much to their chagrin, that they have returned to the central part of Vale (Except aj), and multiple civilians in the area notice them among the debris. Ruby hears the sound of low rumbles and growls from behind her as aj began to hear it as well. Suddenly, a giant black snake like creature emerges from the hole, and multiple Grimm start pouring into Vale. The civilians scream as they attempt to flee the chaos. The sounds of screams and roars fill the air.
Aj began to stand but his legs tremble as he fell but Ruby quickly catches him.
Aj: "They're in danger."
He wheezed out as the dust in his lungs affected his voice. Ruby nods as he sets him down gently.
Ruby: "I know. But look at yourself. you can't even stand up."
Aj: "We can't let them die..."
The k8 Letha suit began to cover his bottom part of his body as he stands up.
Aj: "They need to be saved."
Ruby who hasn't recovered from the impact, nods and stood up with aj.
Ruby: "Yeah... you're right."
