A/N: Thanks as always to qazse for help with reactions!
"Lagiacrus. That sounds pretty cool. I think we've heard of it once or twice, too." Yang said.
"Yeah. They thought it was causing the quakes in Moga Village before Ceadeus." Blake confirmed.
"Then if they think it can rock entire islands, it has to be huge!" Neo said excitedly.
"This is gonna be so cool! And the way Katana says it lives in the abyss of nightmares! That must mean it lives really deep down. And all the spookiest stuff lives in the deepest part of the ocean." Ruby declared.
"So, you excited, Glynda? We're finally gonna see what monster's gonna help you terrify the next generation of Huntsmen and Huntresses." Qrow said.
"I do not terrify my students!" Glynda snapped. As she did, though, all the students flinched, causing the adults to raise a brow at her. "Intentionally. Katana! Please start the episode so we can move on from this." She requested.
"Yes, ma'am." Katana confirmed, starting the episode.
The scene opened with intense, terrifyingly heart-pounding music as a first person view showed a man desperately trying to tread water in the deep sea. "Lost and alone in the open ocean. No help coming. No land in sight. Strength, stamina failing. Clawing at the surface, desperate for every breath that could be your last. What could be worse than this Hell? What could be worse?" Rage spoke ominously as the person began failing to stay above water, going beneath the waves for several seconds at a time. Suddenly, a massive eel-like creature could be seen in the distance, facing slightly away from the person, before noticing him and turning in his direction. "That... Could be..." Rage continued as the creature appeared to get closer each time he went below the waves. Finally, it was right in front of the person, with its mouth wide open ready to take a bite, before everything went black with a squishing sound. "Worse..." He finished.
Ruby, Velvet, Neo and most of all, Blake were terrified of that opening. "I think I get why Neptune's afraid of water now." Velvet said fearfully, petting her rabbit ears.
"Isn't drowning enough?! Why can't the monster be like a dolphin and save me!?" Ruby whined.
"And the two of use are tiny enough for him to snap up in one bite." Neo said to Ruby worriedly.
Even Cinder found herself unnerved. "Not even my fire can save me if I'm in the middle of the ocean." She said worriedly.
"And I am not capable of lasting in large bodies of water." Penny said nervously.
A light, yet still highly discomforting music was heard as the creature was then shown from a great distance away, coiled up similar to Ceadeus. "One of my biggest fears, is being stranded in open ocean an seeing movement nearby." Rage admitted.
"Which is why I hate traveling across it, be it by boat or plane." Blake declared.
"Aww, is the kitty scared of water?" Emerald teased, lightly poking Blake's side.
"Wha-NO! That is such a stereotype." Blake whined.
"So you're not afraid of water?" Nora asked uncertainly.
"Well... no, I... Okay I'm afraid of large bodies of it, happy? I just hate that whole, 'cats hate getting wet' trope." Blake explained with a pout, becoming annoyed with her friends for joking about her heritage.
"Jeez, Blake! Relax! We're just joking around. You know you really need to learn to laugh at yourself. I mean look at Sun, he likes telling faunas jokes to people." Yang told her partner.
"What?!" Blake cried out, furious that Sun would undermine the fight for Faunus equality by telling Faunus jokes.
"Honestly, I..." Rage started, before letting out a chilled breath before trying again as the creature in question uncoiled and swam in a bit of a spiral to right itself, before slamming into and destroying a large pillar. "Welcome, fellow hunters, then, as we talk the lord of the seas, Lagiacrus himself. Yet another flagship monster and a very iconic one as he's one of the few water based monster that hunters can fight on land and sea." Rage explained as a large ship was shown coming towards a large island.
"Hunters went into the water to engage the monsters? In their territory, where they have the advantage?" Weiss asked, almost not believing people would attempt an idea that bad.
"Those hunters, they're tenacious. I'll have to have you guys fight a Plesioth. You'll understand when you're waiting on the shore to fight, but it never comes close enough to engage." Katana told her.
"That's what ranged weaponry is for." Winter stated as if it were obvious.
"You're not wrong, Schnee, but bullets and explosives are known to be significantly less effective in water. Bullets will quickly slow down from the resistance and the pressure and temperature of the water greatly diminishes the power of explosives." Ironwood explained.
"Well, I certainly admire that tenacity of theirs. If it's a true danger and it can only be found near or underwater, then you have to do whatever it takes to track it down and defeat it." Pyrrha declared.
"Yeah. What Pyrrha said." Jaune agreed. Ozpin smiled at his students' bravery and determination.
"Lagiacrus then, was blamed for quakes that were plaguing Moga village. Every now and then this floating paradise would shake and quake and the villages feared, well... not long until it goes crumbling down into the depths and they will all be left devastated and homeless. But, the only hunter in the village, old and unable to act, could offer no solace. So then, they asked for the guild to send them help. That help was the now legendary huntress, Katana Blade, who arrived in town and got her bearings as a brand new hunter, until she fought her way up the food chain and faced down Lagiacrus, battling for the title of 'Master of the ocean'!" Rage explained as the daily life of the people was shown, carrying around supplies and doing A LOT of fishing, one man even carrying an entire shark over his shoulders. However, the island was the shown shaking violently as the people struggled to gain their footing, before a boat was shown dropping off a young Huntress, appearing to be in her late teens, her hair tied in a long ponytail and a massive katana on her back. [1]
Blake was unsurprisingly drooling at the sight of all their fish. "Can we visit this place, please?" She asked.
"No. You'd cause all of them to starve." Weiss denied her teammates request.
"Damn! That one guy's carrying a shark on his back. My kind of guy right there." Qrow noted.
"That is epic! I wanna do that!" Yang agreed.
However, they were all shocked when they saw the younger version of Katana arriving. "You saved their village, Katana! That was awesome!" Ruby stated.
"Very impressive, Miss Blade. And it looks like you were only as young as Miss Adel and Miss Scarlatina. That also deserves praise." Ozpin stated.
"Well, you know, the last hunter was getting on in years, they needed a hunter who'd be able to stick around for at least a decade or two." Katana said.
"How old are you!? You look like you're barely into your 20's, but you're old enough to have kids!" Nora cried out.
"Nora!" Ren scolded.
"It's fine. I'm a demon, remember? I'm gonna look like I'm in my 20's for a couple THOUSAND years. But, it you must know, I recently turned 200. Which, again, in human years is basically 21." Katana explained.
"And your children?" Winter asked.
"Both daughters. Both 17. I was actually thinking of sending them to Beacon to stop the Fall, but I decided this method was better." Katana told them.
"If the option is still on the table, we'd be happy to accept them." Glynda offered.
"Essentially the whole situation with Lagiacrus can be described in about, ten seconds." Rage explained as a montage was shown of a hunter made their way through a crowd of people to the two men in front of all the commotion, before a Lagiacrus was shown in its death throes before collapsing, at which point a hunter was shown cooking a steak on a spit roast, before a group of hunters was seen swimming underwater, all accompanied by an epic-sounding rap song.
"Well... that was a thing." Yang said.
"I guess he's not wrong, though." Coco admitted.
"But didn't you say that you only captured monsters, Katana?" Penny asked.
"For me, that's true, but sadly, other hunters aren't always that courteous." Katana confirmed.
"Yep, I'm not wrong, right? So, Lagiacrus then was the first one of its kind we discovered in a brand new line of monster classifications, the leviathans, such as Mizutsune, but Lagiacrus to them is what Rathalos is to the Flying kind. The leviathans, while they have their odd members- shout out to my Gobul!" Rage declared.
Suddenly, a strange angler fish-like creature was shown as if it were smirking sinisterly, before opening its mouth for a fearsome roar. "Hi!" It declared.
Ruby and others will be creeped out by Gobul, but what takes everyone by surprise is that Blake is scared too.
"Miss Belladonna, are you alright? You seem, disturbed." Ozpin asked, concerned.
"Yeah I mean I thought you'd want to eat a fish that big?" Nora questioned in confusion.
"Actually I would. It's just, if angler fish weren't such a unique delicacy, with each part of it having a different taste, I wouldn't even consider going near a fish so... ugly!" Blake explained, horrified.
"It's okay, Blake. I don't want to go near it, either." Velvet assured her.
"Are, in a word, graceful creatures. Beautiful, serpentine almost as they writhe around, lithe in their nature, their bodies flowing like the water in which most of them feel most at home. I love the leviathans, I think they're a beautiful classification and damn near every single member of the order has something just magical about it. Lagiacrus then, as the one that champions them all is certainly no different. On the surface, he does not look... really well- all that. essentially, someone took a marine iguana, handed it to a mad scientist and went 'Look, you have a month and then I want it to be eating people'. And this is what we have, then. A Lagiacrus. It's a- well... Reptile, lizard, it's still is needing to breathe air, thought it can stay underwater for more than HALF A DAY!" Rage explained the nature of leviathans and how Lagiacrus stands above most of them as a hunter fought the beast underwater, before a marine iguana was shown eating algae underwater, before returning to Lagiacrus at the end.
Ruby, Glynda, Winter and Nora all gushed at the marine iguana. "It's so cute!" Ruby cried out.
"Indeed, with a lifestyle so much different from its cousin, it's quite incredible." Glynda stated.
"Not to mention the colors they can be, the depths they can reach for being such small creatures and the water temperatures they can withstand. They're truly fascinating." Winter added.
Everyone laughed at the Mad Scientist bit. "I could definitely see Watts trying to recreate Lagiacrus." Cinder agreed.
"Indeed. Clearly, the lengths Arthur was willing to go to easily put him in the category of mad scientist." Ironwood agreed.
Then they were truly shocked by the creature's ability to hold its breath. "Whoa. Half a day without air! That's amazing." Emerald said.
"I was gonna say it's not as impressive as Ceadeus, but then I remembered he cheats with his breathing beard." Neo said.
"Still, how cool is it that we have that sentence now, breathing beard?" Jaune asked.
"A gifted swimmer, then, using the shape of its crested head and powerful, muscled tail to cut through the water like a knife as it torpedoes towards its next victim. Though, the legs themselves are nothing to scoff at. Powerful in their own right, clawed and deadly, when on land, they are used to grievous effect. Hunting down fish, herbivores and the like both above and below the waves, Lagiacrus very rarely has any real challenge. Even the likes of Rathalos would rather not get in its way when the opportunity does present itself." Rage declared as a Lagiacrus rose from the water onto a cliff to square off against a Rathalos, which it towered over, before snapping at the Flying Wyvern, who managed to dodge the attack and flew away. "In fact, only one creature has ever been confirmed to hunt this majestic ocean dweller and that is the Nakarkos himself." Rage gave an idea of Lagiacrus' daily life and where it sits on the food chain, before an image of the ever-terrifying Nakarkos was shown again.
"It is quite sizable. It's easy to see why other creatures would rather not mess with it." Ren noted.
"Yeah. It makes Rathalos look tiny." Coco said with a smirk.
"Oh, gods! Not that monster again! Is they're anything it CAN'T prey on!?" Weiss questioned.
"Well, it is an Elder Dragon, Weiss. We've learned they sit at the top of the food chain. But remember, we also learned the Ceadeus eats them as well." Pyrrha reminded her.
"So, what is the secret, then? Because, look: I am essentially just describing a big lizard-shark, right? So, there's gotta be something, right? There's gotta be a little bit of a catch here that really gives this guy a... Shall we say, SPARK. And... Well, that's exactly it. Electricity is the Lagiacrus' forte, able to generate and then deliver a colossal amount of voltage, lightning beneath the waves. A thunder cloud wrought in ocean blue! This is essentially how a Lagiacrus hunts." Rage explained Lagiacrus' method of attack, before a cartoon was shown of a large man with yellow skin along with his son in a boat. The man then tossed what appeared to be an electric lantern or some kind of light into the water [2], which electrocuted the entire body of water, sending a massive amount of dead fish to the surface.
Cinder shuddered at the thought of yet another super charged electric monster wandering around the campus and being alongside Beacon's scariest authority figure. She then turned to her teammates. "Okay, you two, when we get back absolutely no more stealing or pickpocketing. Understood?" She demanded. As their leader, she is responsible for them. So, if they got in trouble with Glynda, Cinder would be in trouble for not reigning them in. Whatever it took to keep an electric crocodile off her back.
Glynda pieced together Cinder's logic and was a bit surprised she thought she would do that. "I assure you, Cinder, I will not be using my Lagiacrus to shock students or threaten them in any way to keep them in line. Especially knowing your story now, I will be sure it knows to stay at a distance that makes you comfortable." Glynda assured her, before thinking. (Do these students really think I'm that bad? To sic a giant electric eel on them?) She thought.
Ironwood leaned closer to Winter. "Schnee, make a note, supply the Ace-Ops with electric monsters in the event Cinder has second thoughts about returning to Salem." He told her.
Winter looked at her superior officer incredulously. "Sir, with all due respect... That is levels of fucked up usually only reached by my father." She said.
"A monster that lives in water and also has electrical properties. I do not think it would be wise for me to attempt to fight one of these." Penny said uncertainly. [3]
"Flying towards its foe as fearless speeds, swirling 'round them in the water, disorienting them, creating a whirlpool or vortex of rushing current, that it will then deliver the deadly voltage within, creating this electrified tornado of fresh meat. You don't wanna be on the hungry end of his wandering eyes." Rage warned as the hunter fought a Lagiacrus on land and, while the creature appeared to fare worse than it did in water, it was still landing powerful hits and dodging those of the hunter, before leaping back into the ocean.
"That's pretty cool." Ruby stated.
"It's definitely effective. My friend Ilia fights just like that, minus the whirlpools." Blake agreed. She then noticed everyone looked at her confused.
"How does she deliver the voltage like Rage said?" Coco asked.
"She has an electric whip." Blake explained.
"So, how does he come up with this voltage? Well, it's down to the spines on his back, they are the delivery mechanism. Sat just in his flesh underneath each one and the same with his head, too, is a thunder organ, specialized in generating this current. Working very similar to an electric eel, it is filled to the brim with stacked electrocytes, which are best described as natural batteries, will start to be opposingly charged." Rage explained as the electrocytes were shown getting their charge. "This produces a small amount of current, but when you have enough of them so concentrated, so packed... Well, the compound effect speaks for itself. To put Lagiacrus' thunder antics into perspective: our electric eel, the most normal, yet strongest current producer that isn't a monster, it is more than capable of killing a caiman of this size in under a minute of exposure." He declared as a caiman was shown biting an electric eel, only to violent convulse from the eel's defensive shock, before dying a short time later.
"So they can be generate their electricity and will. And with so many of these thunder organs, it likely doesn't take long at all for the charge to build. Fascinating." Penny said.
Nora had once again fallen asleep for this. She woke up after Penny's statement, however. "That's a funny way to say boring!" She said, laughing a bit, until she saw the electric eel. "But that is AWESOME!" She declared.
"Speak for yourself." Cinder said, rubbing her neck while she cringed as seeing the Caiman get electrocuted to death. "Why didn't the stupid camera guy help? The eel was already dead, but he could've saved the Caiman." She said, sympathetic of the electrocuted crocodilian."
"I can't speak for that video, since I KIND OF doubt it was captured by a professional documentary team, but normally, there's a general rule that they cannot interfere with the animals and have to let whatever happens happen." Katana explained.
"Yeah. It's a bit shocking, isn't it?" He joked. He laughed out loud at this joke, before it soon turned to crying. "I just want to be funny!" He cried, before a test pattern cut him off.
Yang, however, did laugh at the joke. "Oh, come on, Rage! Don't be like that! You've told some great ones in the past." Yang said.
"Only because your sense of humor is as weak as his." Weiss criticized.
"But at least she CAN tell jokes, Snow Angel." Neo countered.
The hunter was then shown once again swimming through the ocean towards where Lagiacrus seemed to be resting, coiled up in some kind of underwater cave. "It is a perfect predator. And... well, it's bad news if one is in the area. And while it turned out, Lagiacrus was not the cause of the quakes threatening to sink Moga village, that honor belonged to a Ceadeus, a whale-like Elder Dragon that I've touched upon previously in a monster hunter lores, according to Katana herself, it still proved a climactic battle that she needed every ounce of her training and experience in order to prevail against the great beast." Rage declared as a severely beaten Lagiacrus was caught in a shock trap and an equally bruised and injured Katana threw tranq bombs at it to finally put it to sleep and end what Moga Village thought was their problem.
"Yep. It was a pretty rough experience back in my younger days. Of course, that was without my Demon form and fighting underwater." Katana explained.
"Why didn't you use your demon form?" Blake asked.
"Same reason you hid your cat ears. Demons aren't the most beloved creatures back in my world. That's why we have human forms. To blend in." The ice demon told her.
"Either way, Lagiacrus is quite impressive. Although, while it is quite large, it isn't large enough to the point one would reasonably believe it could sink an island." Glynda stated.
"True, but they hadn't known about Ceadeus at the time, so Lagiacrus was the next likely suspect." Ironwood reasoned.
"But for myself and many others who have attempted to fight this beast in the ocean, essentially his house, his element, you feel like you're all but at his mercy, with you as you slowly swing your weapon against the resistance of the water, you just get this impression like he's almost toying with you and at any moment, he could put on a burst of his legendary speed, be around back of you and be snapping you in half with his jaws that would make a crocodile blush at a mere moment's notice." Rage explained as, much like what he said, the hunter seemed to struggle to be able to do anything to the beast as the water greatly slowed him and his weapon swings down while Lagiacrus was at in its element at its top speed.
"Huh. That makes me wonder how my semblance would work in the water?" Ruby wondered.
"Indeed. I might be able to move underwater as well as I can on land." Weiss agreed.
"Perhaps we should consider a course teaching students about underwater combat. Or at the very least, using their semblances underwater." Ozpin considered.
"Wouldn't that be incredibly situational, so there would be no real reason to learn it?" Winter questioned.
"Hey, no less situational than being tied to a chair, yet Natasha still took the time to learn that." Qrow pointed out.
"That's... actually an excellent point." Penny noted.
"He really is a unique flavor among monsters. Talking of unique flavor, his mouth produces this quite viscous, saliva-like mucus. And what he can do, when especially mad, when especially charged up, when his crystals are sparking and arcing and GLOWING in this nova of electrical energy, 'cuz it does take him a little while to build up to it, right? His body's gotta produce the charge. So, much like Zinogre, he has to reach that fully amped state, but what he can do is direct some of that current to his mouth, not only giving him a thunderous bite for 65 power and 95% accuracy, he can then use this current to charge a mucus-y, saliva-like mix of a substance that he can produce en masse and then send it flinging at you in great globs of ball lightning to explode in thunderous fury at his foes. And it just makes you think, doesn't it... I wish I could shoot electrified saliva at my enemies." Rage stated, his awkward last sentence being followed up with crickets chirping as the hunter continued to fight Lagiacrus underwater.
"Ha! Another Pinchermon reference! I got it!" Nora laughed.
"It's quite impressive and resourceful, although I can't approve of the spitting globs of it." Pyrrha stated, shivering in disgust.
Jaune suddenly got an idea. "Ooh, Cinder! If the Maidens have lightning powers, maybe you could do that, too." Jaune suggested.
Cinder gave him an incredulous look at this. "Well, first off, I don't see myself relying much on thunder power and second, I'm definitely not going to spit electric loogies. That's completely disgusting. I have some class, you know." She said. (I might try breathing fire, though.) She pondered in her mind.
"He can also, then, summon three pillars of lightning that rotate around him steadily, blocking the approach of would-be aggressors. How he does this, how he controls them with such precision... well, it's a mystery, the Guild would very much like to find out to this day. It tends to favor then, environments that have both a mix of land and flooded, deep waters that it can use both to full effect. And I really don't want to undersell just how potent Lagiacrus is. It might look, let's say plainer than most, though I still think it has a very striking design, but even DEVILJHO have been known to be like 'Uhhhh...' When it comes to Lagiacrus. But essentially, that's it: a simple, yet effective monster that introduced us to a whole new classification of monster and it will always be loved because of that." Rage said as the hunter found Lagiacrus asleep on land and re-engaged it, seeming to be winning the fight now.
"Oh-ho-ho, now you KNOW this things a badass if a Deviljho won't mess with it!" Emerald laughed.
"It is nice to know that there are some monsters capable of deterring that beast." Blake agreed with a smile.
"Yeah. For the World Eater, it sounds like it really knows when it's biting off more than it can chew." Neo said with a smirk, to which Yang high fived her while everyone else rolled their eyes.
"Lagiacrus then, comes in two more flavors, the first of which is texture-less... Ivory. Ivory Lagiacrus, an almost pure white, save for the spines variety, rare to be found. This is a cause of one day, a Lagiacrus making a strange decision." Rage explained, before putting on voices to talk as the monsters once again. "Larry? L-Larry, I've had a thought." 'Ivory Lagiacrus' explained as it swam underwater through a flooded cave.
"What have you been thinking?" A normal Lagiacrus, dubbed "Larry" asked while on land, although with a feminine voice that betrayed his name.
Everyone was caught off-guard by this, several of them chuckling. "Yeah, that's not the voice I was expecting for a Larry." Velvet said.
"That's more like a voice for a Laura." Yang agreed.
"Yeah, that's definitely a lady, not a Larry." Nora said.
Ivory, now on land, was confused by this, raising his head in question. "The hell's wrong with your voice?" He asked.
"Shut up!" Larry snapped.
Ivory shook off the confusion to deal with the raptors in front of him and kept speaking. "Either way, my thought-" He began, before Rage cracked up and had to drop the charade as everything went black.
Everyone laughed again at this. "Still, as funny as this was, I'd like to hear what this grand idea was." Ren stated.
"Nothing good if it made its whole body change." Coco said.
"Indeed. By the rules of this classification system, I feel like that would be more like a variant than a dedicated subspecies." Penny said.
"So, Ivory Lagiacrus decided to one day forgo meat and then looked at some QUARTZ CRYSTAL and went 'Yeah, that looks alright' and started eating that. This caused its shell to turn this pale, beautiful, luminescent white that shines with the properties of the crystals it's consumed, giving it an extra hardness, its skin closing, the pores reducing to allow it to live a predominantly landlocked lifestyle, it much prefers being out of the water. Due to this, it is forced to have its thunder organs turned up to eleven, producing the current to work in the air, unaided now by the conductivity of water. Outside of that, it is more physically powerful, stronger from living on land and hunting in a more brute force manner." Rage explained as a new hunter in presumably Lagiacrus armor fought Ivory Lagiacrus with a familiar fire lance.
"It changes from eating rock!? That can't be good for it!" Emerald stated.
"Indeed. Working in a vastly different way than what nature designed your for is a risky move. But clearly the Lagiacrus that do this make it work for them." Ozpin stated.
"How can it even digest that!?" Glynda questioned.
"That's gotta be one bad tummy ache. And trust me, I know. All that bourbon really messed with my insides." Qrow declared.
"So! Past Ivory then, we of course have Ebony. Abyssal Lagiacrus! Incredibly rare, over a hundred years old, sighted once in a lifetime! Living deep down in the dark abyss where light fails to reach. It is unknown what they eat, but what is known is that they are permanently charged. They are crackling with life, bioluminescent now, the blue glow ever so softly given away the unbridled fury hidden by the murky shadows. It is a veritable living thunderstorm, dominating the depths with deadly discharge. It is Elder Dragon level, able to comfortably match them, blow for blow. Still threatened by Nakarkos, but now instead of prey, it's a fight. The Abyssal Lagiacrus is at the height of its power and it is not afraid to use it." Rage declared as a new Lagiacrus was shown in a deep, dark underwater cave, its shell pitch black while being line with electric blue spikes, fighting apparently on equal ground against a team of four hunters.
Ruby, Weiss, Velvet, and Cinder all found Abyssal Lagiacrus a little scary, but pretty at the same time. "I-it's kinda creepy, but also cool." Ruby admitted.
"It's almost like a Grimm, but I like the pretty glowing lights." Velvet agreed.
"And look how far past itself its electricity was able to reach. Considering its own size, that's an unreal amount of electricity. It might even challenge what we've seen Thor capable of doing." Weiss noted.
"And, like you said, Weiss. It is massive. It could probably hold its own against Goliaths and Megaliaths. Even four hunters barely even seem to be fazing it. So surely, it could hold off countless Grimm and keep its master safe." Cinder agreed.
"It's astonishing. Such a mighty and intimidating creature." Glynda said in amazement.
"Definitely fits Miss Goodwitch." Blake said.
"What was that, Miss Belladonna?" Glynda asked, causing Blake to squeal in fear.
"Still, that things pretty cool. And I think the black and blues will match nice with your purples and whites." Qrow stated.
"And it seems to be quite capable physically, so it's a well-balanced choice, as you're generally a long to mid range fighter, Glynda." Ozpin agreed.
"As long as you're happy with it, Glynda, I think it's perfect." Ironwood said.
"And it's just so cool!" Ruby cried out.
"So you've said, several times." Winter stated.
"So, Glynda! Two more: your boss or the man who's been flirting with you since he got to Beacon?" Katana asked.
Glynda looked back and forth, the choice clearly a difficult one. "I'm sorry James, but I'm quite fascinated as to what Ozpin's going to be. No doubt yours will be interesting as well, but I'm equally positive it's going to be quite destructive." Glynda stated.
"Well, Ozpin's monster is certainly capable of causing destruction, but for the most part, it's a solitary creature that tends to avoid conflict and be as free as the wind it controls. Prepare for Kushala Daora!" Katana declared, starting the video.
A/N: Thanks as always for reading! I hope you enjoyed it!
[1] Okay, a little self-insert here, I apologize, but A: Rage tells this as if it's the audience that's doing this, which obviously breaks the illusion of this being real I've put forth for them and B: he speaks as if it's something that will happen or currently is happening, rather than something that happened in the past, so that helped make it seem like it did take place in the past, rather than something currently going on. I hope that made sense...
[2] Seriously, if anyone actually knows, please tell me what that thing was Homer threw into the water!
[3] Even Rage said it "having a robot fight against both water and electricity is a poor decision."
