Chapter 4:To the Temple
Meanwhile Glynda is looking at a tablet with ozpin beside her. She swipes through it stating"welp the last pair had been formed with Nora Valkryie and Lie Ren. Poor boy…I can't imagine them getting along. Still he's probably better off than miss Nikos"changing the video to her and Juane walking through the woods
Ozpin was looking at the forest saying"Mmmm"
Glynd signs saying"I don't care what his transcript says. This juane fellow is not ready for this level of combat. But I'll guess we'll find out soon enough. With their current pace they should reach the temple soo".
Then she switches the image again to show Rogue and Zane who are fighting a couple grimm.
"Ah then their these two"she says looking at the screen
The scene fades into them fighting back to back looking at five beowulf."well looks like were surrounded great….just great"Zane said
Rogue had her axe held by both her hands until she pushed a button splitting them up. Now they were single handed axes then again she pressed a button on one. It turned it into a submachine gun with a extended mag on the bottom of it. She smiled with a confused Zane turning behind him.
"Oh were not surround their the ones in trouble"she state
Zane just let out a huh until she started to fire in a circle hitting some of the grimm. With Zane ducking when her gun fire went over his head. As she went in a circle a few times laughing she managed to take out one of the wolves. One of them turned to its fallen brother and looked back at Rogue.
The beowulf roared and started to rush her with its claws in the air which made her smile.
But now she was charging at it still firing her machine guns into it. She then threw her axe in her other hand into the wolf chest. Then she jumped into its chest burying her feet into it. Then she kicked it and then flipped backward landing perfectly. The beast stumbles for a bit before falling over disappearing into dust
Rogue put her fist in the air saying"whoa two points for me!"
Zane looked annoyed unseathing his two falcata swords looking at one of the grim. He stared it down and it swiped at him. He doged it, slashing its arm. Then it turned and hit him but he managed to block it with his swords. He grunted and back with glynda she was watching them with ozpin looking at the forest.
Then the beast threw its arm up making him get knocked back. He was now on one knee looking up at the creature sweating. He thought for moment"I could use my armor form right now but with her it….no I'll do it later…can't take it too quick".
Rogue soon put her axe back together and another wolf was after her. She smiled before causing lava on the ground to emerge from its feet. It was a small puddle that barely did anything to the grimm. But then she clenched her fist and a rock-like spike shot up peiricng its paw. Then another went up piercing its jaw. The beast then turned into black smoke.
Zane managed to kill the one he was with and the last one went for him. It charged with claws riased ready to attakc him. But he dodge it stabbing it in the back, the grimm noticed this and roared while running. With one of his swords jabbed into its back he got dragged away by the grimm.
He had a look of surrpsie and terror on his face as he flaied around in the air holding on for dear life. But he then managed to pull himself to get onto its back while it ran around like crazy,"whoa slow down boy"he said bouncing around. The wolf tried to slash at him but kept missing. He then pulled out his revolver and stuck the barrel into its ear firing several shots into it. Then it fell down dead and started to disappear.
He wiped the sweat from his brow and looked back at the rogue. Who now was celebrating and Zane mutter"Dam this girl is nuts"
Back with Glynda she looks at Ozpin saying"So what did you use as relics this year?
He didn't answer but instead watched a tablet with ruby rose on it picking up a leaf. While her partner Weiss Schnee walks in a random direction.
Meanwhile Eria and Oxnyia are walking through the woods toward the temple. But Onxyia kept looking at her partner with a curious look
"What do I have a bruise on my face or something?"Eria asked checking herself over
"Noo…its just that…you don't seem to mind i'm a faunus despite you being a…"she drifted off
"A human?"Eria added
"Yeah. I honestly thought you hated me because I expected hate from humans here, but you didn't. Why I wonder?:Onxyia bringering her finger underneath her chin.
Eria laughed coldy saying"well it's simply i'll tell you later first let's get this over with and get a hot shower. Can we agree on that?"
Onxyia laughed and said"Like you said early I agree with that"
Then above them she noticed a flying grimm with its feather falling off with an awkward position it seemed.
"Um…are never-more suppose to fly like that"Onxyia pointed out with her tail swaying from side to side.
"No…I don't think so, maybe someone is trying to ride it or something. That better not be rogue up their"Eria added
Then from the bushes rustling could be heard getting close to them. Eria brought out her lever action shotgun pointing at the bushs. While Onxyia got out her glaive out in a stance staring at the bushes.
Then the rustling got louder with Pyrrha running full sprint past the two.
"Uh…Pyyrrha, why are you running–? As Eria said before turning around to see what was chasing her.
Then Pyrrha yelled"talk later! Run now!" she shouted back as she ran out of her view
"What's gotten into her?"Onxyia asked before they heard more rustling which was louder.
Then what came out of the brush was a scorpian like creature with six large bone like legs and two large pincers and a stinger tail all covered in bone armor on the top half of its body making for an unbreakable defense. This particular grimm was called a death stalker and currentlyl Juane was hanging from the tail with a death grip.
The creature screerch as it saw the two girls standing in front of it. As for Onxyia and Eria both had the same decision that was on their minds. They both looked at each other scared, screamed and ran away from the grimm as fast as they could with Onxyia picking Eria up running with her.
"Hey ! put me down I'm able to run by my…"Eria protested until noticing the grimm behind them was giving chase
"You know what nevermind"She said nerovusly as Onxyia managed to catch up with Pyrrha
"Ok what happened this time?!"Eria asked still on onxyia shoulders
"Well me and Jaune went into a cave we thought was the temple only to find out it was that thing's home and now it's chasing me cause we woke it up!"Pyrrha answered
"Guys, how about less talking and more running?!" Onxyia yelled as they ran faster trying to escape the grimm.
=RWBY=
Meanwhile Yang and Blake had managed to get to the temple after handling some grim. They step out into a clearing that reveals a circular stone temple, broken and decrepit but for the platform around its inside holding several black and gold objects.
As they looked at it Yang said"Think this is it?"looking at Blake
In response,Blake gives Yang an incredulous look and heads down the hill. Yang then follows her down. As they got down they took a stone bridge across to the temple. As they look at the temple several chess pieces were layed about with Blake looking confused.
Looking at the black king Blake said"Chess Pieces?"
Then Yang looked at them noting something"yeah and some of them are like we weren't the first ones here"
"Guess we should take one then"Blake suggested
Yang then examined several pieces"hmmm" as she studies a golden knight piece. Then she picks it up presenting it to Blake telling her"How about a cute little pony?"
Blake looked at it smirking then saying"Sure why not". They then start to walk toward each other to the center of the temple floor. "That wasn't too hard!"yang exclaimed
"Well its not like this place is very difficult to find"Blake said smiling and Yang shared the smile with her.
Yang heard a girls scream exclaiming"A girl in trouble Blake, did you hear that"
She doesnt answer and instead stares atsomething in the sky that is falling.
Flashback to ten minutes ago
Then it changes to Juane and Pyrrha who were in the cave from early. They were walking into the temple until they see a large glowing point of gold right in front of them, illuminating Jaunes excited face.
"Thats the relic!"Jaune then slowly reaches out to grab it, but it moves away from his swipe
"Hey! bad …relic"then he reaches for it again, then jumps forward and hangs onto it as the object raise above the ground
"gotcha!" he yelled
Pyrrha was looking worried and slowly said"Jaune….?"
Jaunes relic lowered downwards and now he was dangling right in front of a now pair of glowing red lines. It was the eyes of a deathstalker and he screamed which was the one heard from the temple.
Flashback Ends
Back with Ruby and Weiss they were arguing which way to go. Weiss was walking right saying"Its definitely this way. "Stoping before she starts walking to her left"I mean…this way! Definitely this way"she then stops infront of Ruby"alright its official we passed it
Ruby was sitting down annoyed then got up saying"weiss can't you just admit that you have no idea where were going?"
Weiss sighed and turned to her saying"Because I know exactly where were going!" she paused thinking for a moment before saying"were going …to…the forest temple!
Ruby looked annoyed and sighed frustrated. Weiss then retorted with"Oh stop it! You don't know where we are either!
"Well at least i'm pretending like I know everything"Ruby added
"Whats that suppose to mean?"weiss said with her hands on her hips
"Its means your a big stupid jerk and I hate you!"Ruby yelled
Weiss signs to herself then spins around to walk in another direction"Just keep moving". Ruby then did a imitation of Weiss voice"Oh just keep moving! Hurry up! Waaah! Watch where youre going!"She then switched to her normal voice"Why are you so bossy?"
Weiss turns around with an annoyed expression saying"I'm not bossy! Don't say things like that!
"Then stop treating me like a kid!"Ruby said, then weiss said"Stop acting like a kid!"
"Well…stop acting like you're perfect!"Ruby yelled.
"I' .Perfect! Not yet…..but I'm still leagues better than you"She said ,continue to walk away from Ruby. She then says to herself dejectedly"You don't even know me…"
=RWBY=
Back with Pyrrha,Onxyia,Eria,Juane and their new friend the deathstalker. They were all still running for their lives.
Jaune was sobbing while saying"Help! Whoa-ah-ah-ah-ah! Why!? Pyrrha! He-e-e-elp! Pyrrha,this is not a relic! Its not"He stops as he was shaken around by the deathstalker"Do something please!
Pyrrha was still running and said"Jaune! What ever you do don't let-"before she finished the grimm hurled it tail back and laucnehd a still screaming Jaunes across the forest as she watches in dismay"..go"she finishes
Eria then says"Welp there goes that guy now what!?"
"Ummm keep running for our lives!"Onxyia said loudly
"agreed!"Pyrrha said
Back with Zane and Rogue they were walking while talking about their weapons and abilites. "So you got that axe from your dad?"Zane asked with one revolver in his hand.
"Yeah, our parents run a dust and weapons shop back in Argus. Dad made it for me when I said I wanted to be a huntress"Rogue said looking happy downwards
"What about you why do you have so much gear?"Rogue added looking at him
Zane rubbed his neck again then said"I thought it be a good idea to have backup weapons If I ever lost or broke one"
"You don't need all those fancy toys. Just use your semblance, mine is useful. I can create small pools of lava from the ground. I can kinda manipulate them or something to create rocks or shoot a stream of lava or rock spikes at people"Rogue said scratching her neck
"Interesting what its called?"Zane said while twirling his revolver on his finger
"I call it…..Thermo!"She said proudly with arms out to Zane laughing at her pose. She noticed this and asked"Ok funny guy whats your semblance?"
Zane avoided eye contact saying"I-I don't like using it sometimes"Rogue looked at him avoiding her gaze but she didn't want to push further. "Look…you don't have to tell me…if you don't wanna"
Zane sighed stating"Its just…when I use it…it causes me to become aggressive….like a monster even. Also it waste alot of energy sometimes"He clenched the revolver grip tight. Rogue looked at him with some concern about this and wonder what her partner meant by that.
She put her hand on him saying"Its alright partner lets get this initiation done and you didn't answer my question what do you call it?"
Zane thought for a moment they said"Chimera". Rogue whistled saying"Suits you?"Zane looked at her for making a pun"That was a pun wasn't it?"Rogue just laughed walking down the brush.
But they and soon made it too a clearing and saw the temple."hey the temple we finally made it"Rogue said
"Yep and looks like everyone else is here too"Zane said walking over to everyone
"Oh hey guys you finally made it run into away one else along the way here?"Yang said
"Nope but we did kill some grimm on the way here"Rogue said
Blake was still looking up confused until a red blur heading toward them. Once it was near the ground they screamed loudly and it was faint"Heads uuuuuuuup!"Just as she was about to hit the ground panicking. It was Ruby and she was falling straight to them.
Jaune comes flying throught the air and crashes into her, knocking her off course. This sent them both into the left of everyone. Ruby seems dazed by the rough landing there were cutesy beowovles and stars circling above her head. Juane was draped over the tree groaning in pain.
"Woah nice entrance Jaune"Zane said
Jaune who was dazed as well gave a thumbs up in the tree. Then a rustling noise could be heard and soon from the forest a Ursa came chagrin out of the woods in a wild manner until it feel onto its chest sending the girl on top of it tumbling forward.
"Aw…its broken"the girl whined as said girl poked at the Ursa
This girl is seventeen years old with fair skin along with short orange hair and turquoise eyes. The girls outfit consists of a collared black vest that ends at her waist. Her signiture emblem, a hammer with a lighting bolt, can be found on its back. Under the vest are two layers of clothing, colored red and light blue respectively.
She wears a white sleeveless top that forms a tiny heart shape cut over he chest, with a white detached sleeve on each arm. She wears matching finger less gloves on each hand. She sport a short pink skirt that starts at the waist and ends mid-thigh. Her shoes are a mix of pink and white with pink laces, displaying her emblem on their soles.
She also wears armor that begins in the middle of the shoulder and neck and ends by the waist.
Another person ran up next to the fallen grimm who is out of breath.
The boy appears to be seventeen with fair skin with long black hair tied into a ponytail that ends midway down his back. A magenta colroed streak is visible on the left side of his hair along with magenta colored eyes.
His outfit consists of a dark green, diagonally-buttoned,long seelved tailcoat that is red on the inside, with black and gold triimming and pink cuffs. The trimming goes down the right side of his torso and forms a black collar.
This color schem seems to be influenced to some degree by the lotus flower, which is his emblem. He wears a black, long seelved shrit beneath the suit and tan pants with black shoes
He was currenty out of breath from chasing after the grimm riding girl who appeared to be his partner.
"Nora…never do that again" he breathed but by the time he said that his partner wasn't in the same spot then he looked toward the temple
Nora was eyeing the rook piece with an excited look as she picked it up, placing it on her head.
"I'm queen of the castle! I'm queen of the castle"she sang
"Nora!"her partner called out
"Coming ren!"she called back tilting her head causing the piece to fall into her left hand
The group just stared at her as she skipped back to her partner
"Okay how did she get from here to their"ruby added pointing at out to where ren was then behind her
"Well if her semblance is manipulating reality were all screwed"Zane commented causing a few laughs
That is until they saw Pyrrha,Onxyia and Eria running out of the woods sprinting it seems.
"Hey it's the rest of the crew but were still missing someone"Yang pondered while waving over to them
"Huh I wonder why my sis and Pyrrha are running?"Rogue said
"Umm which one is your sister"Ren asked
"The one on that other girls shoulder"poitning at onxyia Rogue replied
Then from behind them emerged the deathstalker slinging its tail back and forth trying to sting them. It went for Pyrrha but she doged it. It tried again but it went for Onxyia and Eria now. Onxyia threw Eria in the air then put her right hand up. She created a ball of light blinding the beast.
The deathstalker let out a screech as it covered its eyes with its claws. It still tried attack them with its tail while covering its eye. Onxyia was backing up a ways while using her semblance.
Eria screamed on the way down and then Onyxia caught her. Eria hair was messed up and just hung her head backwards seeming to pass out. Onxyia just nerovusly laughed.
Pyrrha then yelled"Juane!
"Pyrrha!"juane answered from the tree
Ruby was standing up looking at the monster with then lands into a roll with Jaune saying"ruby!" looking at her leave
Then Yang yelled across the temple saying"Ruby!". Ruby was excited and raised her arms to give her sister a hug but Nora came in between them saying"Nora!"
The scorpian grimm continues to follow pyrrha around and ignores Onxyia and Eria join the others. Onxyia put her down and Eria was a little dizzy it seems. Then she stumbles into her sister leaning into her. Rogue then wrapped her arms around her hugging her.
"Eria!"Rogue exclaimed hugging her tighter
"Rogue!?"Eria aded in a dizzy state
"Onxyia"she said in a shy voice her tail wagging nervously
Then Zane looked confused and said"umm…Zane?"shruging his shoulder
Nora got in between them again yelling"Nora again!"
"Onxyia did you guy really run with a deathstalker on your guys tail?"Blake asked
"Yep and it wasn't fun at all"she grumbled with her hands on her knees
"Ha well you got a good story to tell at least"Zane noted which made her smile.
Then Yang's eyes twitched several times until she growled and erupted in a small burst of flame. She almost hit Ren,Nora,Blake, Eria and Zane who backed yelling"I can't take this anymore! Can everyone just chill out for two seconds before something crazy happens again?!"
As they sat in silence and tick-tick of a clock countdown the two seconds of Yang cooling down. Ren then walks over to a ditzy Nora and then Ruby,Blake and Eria look up.
Ruby then tugs on her sister and points up"umm…yang?"
Up above was Weiss who is revealed to be hanging on the talon the size of her entire body that belongs to the gigantic Nevermoe.
"How could you leave me!?"she called down to ruby hanging on for dear life
"I said jump!"ruby shouted at weiss
"Shes going to fall"Blake said
"Yep shes going to die"Eria said coldly
"She'll be fine"ruby said, waving her hand in the air.
"And she's falling"Ren said
Jaune finally got out of the tree and looked up grining at the sight of Weiss falling through the air. He then jumped off the branch arms outstretched and caught her in a slowed down movement.
Then Jaune catches her and he smiles at weiss saying"just..Dropping in?"
Weiss was speechless and her and Jaune relzies something by looking down.""Oh God"jaune said before they hand onto each other wided eyed as their moment of suspension ends. Their weapons flew behind them"oh noooooo-oompj!"jaune said with Weiss on his back
"My hero"weiss mockingly said on Jaunes back
"My back"Jaune said groaning in pain.
The death stalker was still chasing Pyrrha, but then she manges to land on her side at the feet of the other heroes.
"Great! The gangs all here! Now we can die togther!"yang said in a happy tone
"Yeahhh!"Rogue said along with looked at the two and thought he was seeing double.
"Ok does this thing ever give up,how bad did you two piss it off?!"Eria yelled
"I'm sorry"Pyrrha said with her hands collapsed together
Weiss was getting off of Jaune and Pyrrha went over and helped him up.
"You okay Jaune?"Pyrrha asked as she pulled him up
"yeah…I think so. The ground kinds of broke my fall and…I think Weiss broke my back"Jaune said groaning
Rogue slightly tap Eria on the shoulder motioning toward the two. Both look at each other smiling and laughing to themselves. "Guess she got to partner up with that guy like huh sis?"Rogue whispered
Eria laughed saying"As much as I hate agreeing with you….I agree that was nice she got paired up with him"
Above them the nervmore circled above them infuriated at the two hitchhikers down below.
"Um guys that things coming back"Jaune said pointing up
"Their no point in fighting that thing here we can't dilly dally anymore out objective is right here"Weiss said pointing at the relics
"Shes right we should get a move on and head back to Ozpin"Ruby said
Ruby grabbed the remaining knight piece and Jaune grabbed the last rook piece. The only piece that was left is the pawns which both Zane and Eria grabbed.
"Alright time to leave before we become Grimm chow"Zane joked
"Nows not the time for jokes!"Eria said zane rolled his eyes smiling.
As everyone regrouped with the other the deathstalker managed to get closer to them now. It was heading in their direction and the nevermore began to swoop down lower before spreading its wings wide then with a single flap of its wings firing a barrage of feathers at them.
"Everyone move!"Ren shouted as the group all separated. Most of them avoided it but unfortunately Rubys cloak got pinned to the ground which got her stuck.
"Ruby!"Yang shouted as she tried to go back for her sister . Ruby struggled to free her cloak but to no avail.
"C'mon your stupid thing"Ruby grunted trying to pull it free
The deathstalker saw some prey trapped and made its way to her. Yang was trying to get to her through the feathers that were lodged into the ground but they were stuck good.
Suddenly a white blur went by and the deathstalker brought its tail down to strike ruby. Then a blinding white emitted and someone saying"You're so childish!"the voice said with ruby looking to see it's weiss.
The sight of the stinger was encased in ice and lowered her arm from their position over her head staring at weiss."Weiss…?"ruby asked softly
Weiss removes myrtenaster from the ice before berating her"And dim witted,hyperactive, and don't even get me started on your fighting style. And I suppose I can be a bit…difficult…but if we're going to do this, we're going to have to do this together. So if you quit trying to show off, i'll be…nicer"
"But I'm not trying to show off. I want you to know I can do this"Ruby sated to weiss looking down eyes closed smiling"You're fine"then she walks off.
Ruby smiles geting up and stares at the death stalker that was trying to escape the ice. Yang rushed over hugging Ruby with a smile on her face. Then she looks at weiss smiling at her for what she did.
"Ok guys… I know your trying to have a little moment but…we should move and head for the bridge it's a straight shot back to the cliffs"Onxyia stated
"I think we should start going now because that thing starting to get free"Rogue said pointing at the deathstalker
"Great now what?"Eria said
Zane grabs his dual swords looking at them then said"I don't wanna say this but we gotta take them out."
"Do we have too…...I kinda like the plan of running and living another day"Jaune complained
"I second that I rather live than become bird poop"Rogue said
"Guys come their plenty of us if we split up and word together we can take them out. Me,Weiss,And yang will go after the nevermore. While Juanes group with Ren,Nora and Pyrrha work on dealing with the deathstalker. "Ruby said
"Me and Rogue will go and help Jaune group"Zane said with Rogue grabbing her axe, smiling and agreeing with him.
"Well guess me and my partner will help rubys group"Eria stated changing her weapon into a bat.
"I'm fine with that lets do this"Onxyia said one hand on her hip
Jaune signed"Well I guess it was Pyrrha?" Jaune said bringing out his sword and he extended his shield
"Yes"She added as everyone got their weapons out ready. Nora looking similiar to that of what seemed to be a grenade launcher and rens two pistol machine gun with blades downwards.
"Alright then everybody lets take them out"Ruby shouted as the group split up to take on the two giant grimms so that they could be done with the initiation.
Yang watched her sister smiling with Blake asking her"what are you smiling about?"
"Nothing just proud of my little sis"Yang said as the two went to help them.
