Harvest Machines Reveals their Intention
"Oh, Mr. Alien! I'm so that you're still alive!" Dita hugged onto Hibiki.
"Hey, hey, don't hold me too tight! Are you trying to choke me the life out of me!" Hibiki struggled to get out of the hug.
"Calm down, he's fine and that's what matters." Meia tried to calm Dita down from hugging Hibiki to Hibiki so much.
"I'm glad you guys were able to come, I had no idea if you girls were able to hear my message at all." Jaune worried while being comfort by Pyrrha.
"Believe us, I don't think we would've been able to find you boys if those two hadn't shown up right when we got your message. As much as I hate to admit it." Pyrrha glared at Qrow and Rabat.
"Hey now, don't we at least get a thank you." Qrow chuckled shrugging his shoulders.
"Silence! We're still mad at you two for scheming us and beating up our friends, and other things you two might've done." Ruby glared.
"Aw, now isn't that the cutest angry face I have ever seen." Qrow laughed off.
"Cute? I'm trying to be intimidating!" Ruby exclaimed as she fell on her knees.
"Don't worry, Ruby. I'll make this guy see things your way… with my fist to your face." Yang marched angry toward Qrow.
"Easy Yang, let's save our energy for whatever Jaune and Hibiki has to say." Sun stopped Yang.
"Yeah, listen to the monkey boy who could make you slip a banana peel. That's probably the only thing he's good for." Rabat mocked a bit.
However, Sun didn't heed mind to that insult as he just roll his eyes though there is something that has been on his mind for a while now.
"Say, why does your orangutan keep on chasing Pyro like that?" Sun asked curiously.
"SOMEONE HELP ME?!" Pyoro screamed as he floats away from the crazy orange monkey who is still hot on his behind trying to grab him and hug him.
"To be honest, I don't know. Butan just has her own unique taste in things that catches her eyes and your robot friend just so happens to become that interest." Rabat explained.
"PLEASE MAKE HER NOT INTEREST IN ME?!" Pyoro begged as he leaves the large conference room.
"Anyway, thanks again for allowing our three new friends to board as well." Jaune looked over to Marrow and Neon who waves at him, but Harriet isn't waving because she is dark in her thoughts.
Jaune can understand this, she lost her best friend and the entire fleet from one powerful enemy they had no chance against and worried if having Nirvana here will change the outcome.
"It's the least we can do after they helped you being stranded on that unknown region you flew into." Cinder said.
"But now we have a giant enemy to deal with! Am I the only one who is actually freaking out from something that is far more powerful than the other ones we have fought we far?" Weiss asked feeling a bit scared.
"Stay strong, Weiss! We'll get through this!" Ruby believed with her fist in the air.
"So, does that mean we're going to be fighting that giant enemy now?" Neon asked pointing in a direction.
"I say we go in there and take them out guns blazing like crazy!" Elm excited as she pounded her fists together.
"Easy there, girl. We can't do anything unless we know a little more about that enemy flagship first." Hibiki stated which surprises some of them.
"My word, I never thought I'd live to see the day that you suggest of thinking first then action." Glydna shocked.
"Let just say Jaune talked some sense into me with a punch to the face." Hibiki chuckled rubbing his cheek of where his partner mech was punched.
"(Sounds like those two have grown up a little.)" Qrow thought smirked.
"Whoa, you punched him! That is unexpected and cool at the same time!" Ruby amazed.
"I just didn't want my best friend to go in there and get himself killed in a battle we were not yet prepared for." Jaune chuckled blushing a bit and scratching the back of his head.
"Jaune, I want you and Hibiki to come up to the bridge right now." Mango ordered with her face appearing on a hologram screen.
"Why's that, ma'am?" Jaune asked.
"BC wants to make contact with the enemy even though we already know it's pointless, she also wants to know what their intentions are for us." Mango explained.
"Contact, huh? I'll give them a piece of my mind!" Hibiki ran for the bridge.
"I see he still has that impatient behavior as ever." Weiss sighed with a hand on her face.
"Yet you sound happy to see that annoying side of him." Elm teased with her muscle arms crossed.
"I am NOT happy about that fool!" Weiss snapped a little with her face turning a little red.
"Hmm, this should be interesting. Contacting the harvest machines should be an interesting moment." Qrow smirked.
"Bet they won't even like the answer." Rabat smirked back.
"Oh, so now you two sound like you may know these enemies than you let on." Cinder glared at the two men.
"Maybe we do, maybe we don't, would it really matter either way?" Qrow asked sounding a bit cocky.
(Main Bridge)
Jaune and Hibiki arrives at the bridge with Glynda just when they were trying to make contact with the enemy ship.
"Have you made any contact yet?" Glynda asked.
"No, we haven't been able to for a while now." Ezra answered.
"Better get to it because I got a few words to say to that giant freak!" Hibiki pointed angry at the enemy flagship.
"Easy Hibiki, we still need to know what they want with harvesting human's flesh and what's it all for." Jaune reminded his best friend.
"HELP ME?!" Pyoro begged as he suddenly comes into the bridge with Butan still chasing him throughout the ship.
"Why hasn't anyone stop this?" Glynda asked angry.
Pyoro keeps on flying around the bridge trying to lose that stupid female monkey in any way possible yet Butan keeps on being right behind his machine butt, but then something strange happened when Bart was suddenly kicked out of the piloting orb.
"Bart, who gave you permission to leave?" Mango asked.
"It wasn't me, it was more like I was kicked by something that felt… scared." Bart puzzled of what just happened.
Then suddenly the platform where the pilot control is started glowing and around the same time, Pyoro suddenly start running too, his body flinches and floats into the air about five feet from the floor with the eyes glowing.
"Pyoro, are you okay?" Jaune asked concern.
"Attention! You have no reason to exist other than to be use as parts by us." Pyoro talked strangely almost like he's a completely different robot now.
"What screwed up his circuits?" Hibiki confused.
"It's a communication from the enemy. They must've somehow linked themselves to Pyoro's system." Ezra informed shock.
"Alright you fucking bastards! Who the hell are you and why are you trying to kill us for your so called havesting?" Hibiki demanded.
"We are messengers from the planet earth. You are allowed to live only as provision for earth's future." The enemy answered.
"Earth?" Ezra felt like she heard that name before.
"That's the planet our ancestors came from." Amarone explained.
"Oh yeah, my dad told me about this when I was a kid." Jaune remembered those bedtime stories as they listen to the enemy more.
"You must follow your destiny." The enemy said.
It was just the bridge listening to this, the entire ship is also listening to what the dangerous enemies have to say and what they're about to hear next is gonna shock them to the core of their very being.
"Our destiny?" Glynda confused.
"The act of denying the future that has yet come to past is against the order of earth. If you fight this, the only alternative is complete destruction." The enemy warned before Pyoro drops to the floor seemingly shut down.
Everyone just stood silence of the revealing of what the enemies are exactly and where they came from which is earth, the ancient home planet of the male and female, and they claim to be harvesting the living humans for some insane future of theirs.
(Nirvana Hanger)
"Was… Was that all true?" Blake asked shock.
Blake wasn't the only one shocked about all this revelation of how the human race is being treated like some corps to be picked off and nothing more.
"Oh, I heard all that and I say"
"It's a bullshit reason of what they're doing!" Weiss cursed angry shocking everyone.
"Forgive me for the curse word, but I simply refuse to believe that our fate is be slaughter for a planet that is no longer our home." Weiss stated.
"I'm with Ice Queen here, they can't just take our lives just because they say it's their rights or whatever." Yang said.
"Well, whether you like it or not that just how it is." Rabat shrugged and made a call to Butan.
"Butan, come on back to the ship. We're leaving." Rabat ordered.
"And what makes you think you two meanies are leaving?" Ruby asked narrowing one eye at them.
"We don't like to be in sticky situations than we already are." Rabat said.
"So, you already knew about these enemies… because you work for them." Ren glared at the two men.
"Wow, you figured us out. Someone, give this man a prize." Qrow clapped his hands sarcastically.
"You jerks! Why didn't you tell us?" Sun asked.
"There's no money in it." Rabat answered simply.
"What parts are these machines harvesting us for?" Ren asked another question.
"Let me answer that with another question: What's the difference between men and women?" Qrow asked.
It only took Ren one second to know the answer to that question as his eyes widen.
"Reproductive organs." Ren said shocking the girls and Sun when he said that out loud.
"Are you serious right now?" Barnette shocked, feeling her body shaking a little.
"When you think about what those guys are up to, that kind of thought makes you feel like the lunch you had is about to leave the stomach and stain the floor." Qrow stated how gross everything sounds.
"Amazing, so we're the same. The same human being!" Dita realized.
"They live by killing us and taking various parts of our bodies and patching them together. All human beings are basically the same at the core." Rabat explained.
"As you all heard, we're nothing but parts to them. Born to be harvest, other planets are use to grow the human organs in ideal environments which is a shitty way of saying their planet farms to them." Qrow added.
"What do you two have the mix in all of this? Are you two their informer?" Blake demanded with a fierce cat glare.
"You could say that, we tell the earth what they want to hear about their farm and they let us live for another day. Simple as that." Qrow shrugged.
"But that's wrong." Ruby said making Qrow look at her.
"What? You got something to say, kid?" Qrow asked.
"All the countless deaths those monsters have done, the destruction they leave behind all for some stupid outer space farming of innocent lives because they claim is destiny to be harvest. That's the stupidest thing I have ever heard!" Ruby angered surprising Yang from this.
"These are our lives! All we want is to live out the lives we wish to be in and to become who we want to be, we're all here because we choose to walk this path for freedom and finding something worth our lives over like a family. Not because of some fucking machines thinking themselves as Gods!" Ruby angered.
"She's right, no matter how precis and prepared one may be, there is never a true guarantee that everything will work in your favor and all that planning comes trembling down." Dita stated.
"Since when did Dita start sounding so serious!" Jura surprised.
"Does it matter? What they said is the truth, our lives are our own and no one will take the free will away from us." Meia stand by Dita.
"I guess you got a point there, if I end up dead because of some stupid robots then I wouldn't be able to show off my beautiful self and help out my crew." Jura smiled.
"You two can go ahead and be the cowards that you are, we'll still go out there showing those monsters that these are the humans they should never have messed with and we won't be giving anything to them." Pyrrha crossed her arms standing next to Ruby.
"Since you boys love to give our info to those harvest robots, you can tell them… We'll burn their fucking metal asses to Hell." Cinder glared fiercely with a burning fire in their eyes.
Qrow and Rabat look at each other for a moment then looking back at the group seeing the other women and two boys standing strong together, and they started laughing which caught them off guard.
"Oh man, these guys are killing me with that heroic speech. They're something else!" Qrow commented.
"You can say that again! We met a few people like you who did all that big talk, but they never really brought in the walk." Rabat wiped away a tear from his eye.
Then Butan comes through the group by traveling on top of their heads and jump to Rabat who caught her with his arm.
"Well, if you guys we willing to die by those robots then be my guest. I'm sure it's gonna be a great show." Qrow chuckled as they walk back into their ship.
"It'll be even better if you survive that flagship!" Rabat laughed a little more.
Soon, the two bounty hunter men leave the Nirvana.
"Where the fuck do you think you two are going!" Hibiki demanded.
"We don't like to get involved in tough stuff like this." Qrow answered through the hologram video call.
"Those who don't look behind them aren't able to get ahead." Mango advised with a grin.
"Does a tree bare fruits if it dies? I assume you refer not to die." Rabat guessed.
"We do, which means you'll be seeing us again too." Jaune pointed out.
"Whatever, it's your life and all." Qrow shrugged.
"I'm sure we'll meet again." Rabat said before hanging up the call.
"He is just despicable!" Belvedere commented.
"They better hope we don't see each other or else it'll be too soon." Hibiki angered.
"Forget about him, Hibiki. Right now, we need to focus on finding a way to fight off that giant ship and making sure it doesn't take any more lives." Jaune stated.
(Rogue Men's Ship)
Butan is looking over at the sight of Nirvana on the small screen of the ship looking sad with some whimpering sounds, she really is going to be sad that her precious egg metal man is going to be killed by those metal monsters too.
"Having second thoughts, Butan?" Qrow asked as Buten looks at him.
"You know, through all the previous preys we sold out and let them die by the harvest robots, I think those guys are the bravest bunch we ever come across." Qrow smirked as he took out a bottle.
"You can say that again, those guys won't go down without a fight." Rabat agreed.
"Say, I've been wondering about those two boys, Hibiki and Jaune. I have a strong feeling that they might be what this universe is looking for." Qrow believed.
"Oh, are you making a big gamble because we all know how you stink with gambles when it comes to your bad luck." Rabat laughed.
"Maye I am, and something tells me those guys may turn my luck around or something more." Qrow chuckled before drinking down his alcohol.
(With Jaune and Hibiki)
"Come on, we're going back out there and fight." Hibiki said making his way to the hanger.
"Hold on, we still need to make a plan, remember?" Jaune reminded him.
But suddenly the two best friends suddenly find themselves caught in the strange light finding themselves somewhere else.
KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!
Jaune and Hibiki are about to go out fighting the harvest enemy's flagship with the intention of destroying it to prove themselves of living, but the battle is going to be tough with how powerful that flagship is and hope they can pull it off.
