Something I made in like half an hour. I saw a pic on reddit and I figured why not? Doesn't really have much a plot, but if I ever update this it could be a series of unconnected oneshots of different RWBY characters reacting to Denji.
Yang looked at the screen designating her opponent for combat class and blinked when she saw the new transfer's ID picture. Denji, his name was. Sounded Mistralian. She didn't know a lot about him, but she'd seen him around campus a bunch of times; usually doing something stupid. Now, Yang wasn't averse to a little tomfoolery (as Weiss called it) here and there, but this guy took it to a whole 'nother level. He skipped class constantly, and when he was there he was asleep or blatantly not paying attention.
Then there was the way he acted around the female students.
Yang wasn't ashamed to admit she was hot, and so were a lot of Huntsmen and Huntresses. They pushed themselves to the limit and even late bloomers like Jaune eventually got builds that could put some models to shame. Yang herself stuck out even for that group. She owned it and learned to make it part of who she was. Guys and gals stared at her and in a lot of way she'd loved the attention.
Still, almost none of them were as blunt as that guy. Dude would stare at her boobs or ass or whatever. Not just her; the guy did it to anyone if he thought he could get away with it. It quickly got him a reputation around the school, especially since he didn't seem to have a weapon. No one ever saw him with one and people figured he must've had parents who pulled strings to get him inside.
And yet despite all that she didn't really dislike him. He was honest and he didn't really do anything besides looking, which was just fine with her. Helped that he kept his eyes way off of Ruby. Hell, when she'd asked him point blank why he enrolled into Beacon, he said the headmaster offered him money and 'the chance to touch some tits' in exchange for killing Grimm. She'd burst out laughing at that, especially when Weiss' face turned red and she screamed about how he was a disgrace to all aspiring Huntsmen.
Yang didn't know whether to feel curious or sorry as they both stepped into the ring. Not to toot her own horn, but Yang was pretty much the best among the first years when it came to a fight. She said pretty much cause Cereal Girl was here, but it was only a matter of time till Vytal and she could claim her spot as number one.
She didn't even know if the guy actually had a weapon or not. He definitely didn't give the brawler vibe like her or dad, but looks could be deceiving. Denji barely looked awake and looked like he would've preferred to be anywhere else. Not cause he was scared like Jaune was, but more that he didn't think it was worth his time.
So she decided to tease him a bit.
"Hey, Denji. If you win I'll let you take me out on a date," she called out. She was almost tempted to say ' I'll let you touch my boobs', but Ms. Goodwitch was still there and she didn't want a detention just for some pre-fight banter.
"No shit?!" Denji shouted, looking almost endearingly excited even with his sharp teeth. There were rumors around campus he was a Shark Faunus for a reason.
"A Xiao Long never goes back on her word." Jaune complained in the audience about how she stole that from him, but she paid it no mind, "So you better not hold anything back."
"Hell yeah!"
Yang was a woman who'd seen a lot. She'd fought Grimm since she was twelve and, despite her flippant attitude, she understood that Huntsmen had low life expectancies. But even she was surprised when the guy pulled out a cord from his uniform shirt and tugged.
And then she screamed.
His arms split apart and chainsaw blades that were somehow moving shot out in a burst of blood and gore. What came next wasn't any better. His head was gone, replaced by a square bit of orange and black metal covered in thick wires and a mouth filled with jagged spikes that looked like they could tear through her Aura with just one bite. Even Alpha Beowolves looked like cuddly puppies next to it.
Oh, and did she mention the chainsaw coming out of his head? Cause there was a chainsaw coming out of his freaking head!
Despite the fact that he'd just turned into a monster straight out of her nightmares, and was bleeding so much blood he practically coated the arena, the guy's posture was absolutely relaxed, if haunched, "Come on, let's do this!" Denji's voice called out, somehow not sounding distorted at all, "If I win you owe me a date!"
Yang stepped back and, with wide, pleading eyes, looked around for help. Ms. Goodwitch just stood to the side and sighed, like one of her students didn't just turn into something that would make the Grimm piss themselves. The rest of the students in the class remained in their seats, morbidly curious to see just what would happen next. Weiss in particular gave a look that screamed 'you asked for this'.
So, Yang did something that she'd never done in her life.
She ran.
The blonde turned and ran screaming out of the arena in the loudest, shrillest voice she could muster. If anyone talked about how she was a wuss, she'd she'd like to see them take on the chainsaw monster!
...
"Hey, wait! What about our date?"
Poor Yang. The universe realized that she and Denji could've actually made a decent couple and so they had the normally fearless brawler run scared; can't have Denji attracting a woman who doesn't try to kill him. He might have better luck if he ever meets Cinder or Neo, though.
If I ever update this I might add other characters. Weiss having to deal with Power would be hilarious.
