Chapter 6: Fairy Tales and Forests
"So, Jaune cheated his way into Beacon?" Erick questioned the next morning, "Not a surprise really, he's never been...the most spectacular choice for a hunter if these schools are as elite as they say."
Moon nodded his head silently as he crossed his legs. "True, but, I find it highly unlikely that just fake transcripts somehow flew under Ozpin's radar." Silence for a moment as he thought more carefully. "...Then again, if he thinks a student who's two years of formal training behind everyone else is fit for Beacon because she helped protect a dust shop owner, then I don't really know what to tell you."
Sarah looked up from her spoon feeding Astro a bit of jelly. "At least he was smart enough to take you and Sapphire up on training, that should account for something, don't you think?"
"In due time, assuming he's willing to put in the effort, yes." Moon replied, a rather dead tone in his voice. "Perhaps we can make something work."
The blue orb given to him by Palutena, which had been sitting on the center of their dorm table suddenly began to glow, making Moon inwardly groan as the alert call summoned him back to his table of torture. The orb shone and created the holographic video call that showed a handful of competitors. Moon quickly counted up all of them, only 84 were there. Pokemon trainer and Pyra & Mythra only counted as one.
"Goddammit, where the fuck is Sora?" Moon asked, before any of them could speak up.
From his picture, Sephiroth held up a piece of paper with a mouse holding up two middle fingers. "Rickey Rat sends his regards."
Pay up first you motherfuckers, then you can talk about us legally.
-Rickey Rat,
Palutena, as per the usual, the green-haired goddess was first to speak, in a rather irritated tone. "This isn't funny." she snapped, fixing her glare on Moon.
"I'm only giving you the honest truth about these people." Moon replied, rolling his eyes. "If you don't like that, why even bother?"
"You are there to stop Salem, not mess around."
"Well excuse us, ma'am." Sapphire spoke up. "But it isn't our fault that a hidden evil isn't exactly easy to find. Ozpin isn't going to budge, and neither will anyone else. May I remind you that it is unlikely any information regarding a hidden evil out there in this world is probably censored."
"Ease up Palutena." Byleth butted in as the green haired goddess attempted to talk again. "It took months for Moon to determine that the Church of Seiros was allied with Giygas due to how heavily censored and manipulated Rhea made our past. Do you expect Giygas wanted to make finding his inner circle any easier?"
"If the world is as crack-fueled as he says, he might as well be checking up fairy tales for leads." Sephiroth sneered at them.
Moon perked up at those words. "That's...that's actually not a bad idea," he said. "Byleth's world talked about the Super Smash brothers valiantly through old fairy tales and the church had fairy tales that hinted at something deeper themselves."
"You've gotta be shitting me." Cloud muttered.
"What other option do we really have?" Zelda questioned as several council members started to frown in disapproval. "Ozpin is already trained on mind reading, assuming he is connected to Salem, he's also probably resisted or immune to corruption altogether, and we don't know what the effects of Moon's corruption could do to technology there. Any option we'd otherwise have access to is likely blocked on all fronts."
"And what we do have…" The Aegis Blade Mythra said, showing the data files for Team RWBY, JNPR, and Ozpin. "Isn't very much."
"Weiss Schnee, Ruby Rose, Jaune Arc, Pyrrha Nickos, and Ozpin are all Moon has currently gotten a read on." Mewtwo indicated with his hand. "Of the bunch, only Weiss and Ozpin are the two worth keeping at a close range of distance." Noting the confused looks of several members, the Legendary Pokemon continued.
"Weiss' family is very wealthy, as Moon says in her biography, she is the heiress to the largest Dust Company in this world, this company own several Dust Mines, has its own Shipping Stations, and, according to financial records shown in the History of Atlas books, they bring in almost 35% of the kingdom's revenue. If I've learned anything about Humans when I was under Giovanni, it's that money makes you important."
"She's a seventeen year old girl!" Palutena snapped.
"Half of us here were and are still younger when we saved our worlds!" Ness fired back.
Moon let out a sigh, "You guys are ridiculous." he muttered. "And you all wonder why I won't let you guys talk to Ozpin yourselves."
Ness fixated his eyes on Moon, a hint of concern in his counterpart's eyes.
"In any event, Moon." the boy said after a while. "Be careful what you look for, we can't afford to just jump to conclusions. Not with someone this elusive, I'm certain you understand why we check up on you very often."
"I understand." Moon replied.
"Good...that's all we need to know then."
The orb stopped flashing as the holographic screen closed down.
Sarah patted her friend on the shoulder. "It's okay, Moon." she said calmly. "We'll find her, and then we can finally put a stop to all this nonsense." she noted his dead stare, and a mild flinch each time her hand made contact with him.
"Pokey, Rhea," Moon muttered. "We still have them. I know Rhea is secured in Byleth's world, but I'd rather her be gone for good. Then there is an old Pork Face, he's hiding somewhere. The sooner I can axe this grimm controlling fucker, the sooner I can turn my attention towards the fat bastard who killed our world."
His friends looked at him, each with a varying level of concern. Sarah seemed the most horrified of the bunch.
"I think I remember Blake being a bit of a book savvy kitty." Moon said after a moment, scratching his chin. "Maybe I can figure something out from there, yeah…" Without saying another word, their leader got up and left the dorm.
Erick shrugged his shoulders and went back to tinkering with Gaia, using the almost absurd amount of parts he had bought from the modification shop.
"Anything you think you could salvage from there?" Sapphire asked, sitting down next to the genius. "Because, no offense, to me, you look like you're sitting in a junk pile."
"The technology here is fairly straightforward to understand, though, I'd need a better grasp on the inner workings of the type of internet that the scrolls use in order to possibly hack into systems to find information we're looking for. I've read up, and it seems like the Kingdom of Atlas will be the most tech savvy, they do live on a floating island after all!"
"A floating island?! How'd they manage that?"
"No clue," Erick replied, shrugging again. "Maybe some sort of strange high tech rocket powered by a renewable energy source. Or maybe they just mine large amounts of dust or something like that, I'd imagine Weiss' family company would contribute."
Sarah stayed quiet as the boys talked to each other, quietly bouncing Astro on her lap as the Mr Saturn hummed the 8 melodies song to itself. Surprisingly, both she and Erick hadn't felt much pain from their dark sides in a while. The nightmares were still there, just...more random. It felt suspicious, too suspicious.
"Hehe…"
Speak of the devil. Sarah inwardly groaned to herself.
"You can't hide from the truth forever darling…" Dark Sarah hissed at her. "I know it still haunts you...we know it still haunts Moon too. We'll never be memories...never."
Sarah shuddered at the thought. Something like that could never happen again...right?
Meanwhile, as Erick picked up a loose dust capsule, he felt the tingling pain of his own darkside.
"Eh? Are you still trying to incorporate dust into our laser blaster?"
"I would think you'd be more on board with that idea." Erick shot back rather curtly. "After all, the more powerful Gaia is, the more torture fun you get to have if I let you take control."
"You know, being honest with you, I don't know why I bothered to give you a darkside. I guess I was hopeful that doing so would give you PSI powers...sadly, all it did was make you too smart to try and outwit me."
"Careful, your inner Giygas is showing."
"Piece of shit you are…I don't have memories that haunt you the way Moon and Sarah do."
"Well I'm sorry that you weren't created until story 3."
"I didn't think you'd be much of a fairy tale enthusiast." Blake said quietly to Moon as she led him down an aisle at Beacon's library.
"I've got a Mr. Saturn son to raise, I've gotta tell him something to make him go to bed." Moon replied boredly. "He prefers more...lighthearted stories."
"Well, I guess the Grimm Child is out of the running then." Blake said, pushing the book she just picked out back in. Let's see…" She picked out four books and handed them to him, Moon curiously looked at the spines of what he was handed.
The Infinite Man
The Story of the Seasons
The Girl in the Tower
The Tale of Two Brothers.
"What...are these exactly about?" he asked, mildly irritated at the much more bland sounding titles that made a classic fairy tale reworked and published by Disney look good.
"Pretty standard stuff, the Infinite Man is about a man with two souls that can reincarnate, and everytime he does, his past life becomes another soul within him. The Story of the Seasons tells a tale of a man who gifted four young women incredible powers, known as maidens, they control the seasons of remnant. The Girl in the Tower tells your average tale of a girl meeting her knight in shining armor. Lastly, The Tale of Two Brothers talks about two people who shaped the world with chaos and evil and the other with purity and light."
Moon couldn't help but frown, none of those even sounded remotely like they'd lead him to get a clue about Salem.
"Are there any fairy tales that maybe...deal with an Evil god who was female? Or...maybe about someone who had powers to control Grimm?"
Much to his surprise, the black haired girl shared a similar look of interest. "Unlikely," Blake said after a moment of staring at him. "Anything that'd even suggest the thought of a human being able to control those creatures would likely be pulled off the shelves immediately. I think the reasoning is that something like that would be too dangerous to suggest, we don't exactly want people leading the Grimm into town under the belief they could control such a thing."
"Is there uh...anything else...that'd likely be censored?" Moon asked, trying to throw suspicion into a more thoughtful curiosity.
"Depends on the Kingdom, town, or city," Blake replied, crossing her arms. "There's all sorts of stuff that I'd imagine gets censored quite easily. Things that we know are basically impossible and would only stir up more problems. Like you for instance, we know you're real, as you stand in front of us with psychic powers, until that video of you and Sarah got leaked, tons of story writers would get in trouble for suggesting psychic powers or magic existed."
"What about Faunus?" Moon asked.
Blake's eyes narrowed at his question. "It really depends." she said after a moment. "Places that have had large scale attacks by the white fang probably wouldn't be too keen on reading a faunus hero or heroine. But places with high faunus concentration would gladly grasp at any opportunity to see themselves portrayed positively."
"That, I can understand." Moon replied. "Having a bad history and a dark past that haunts you certainly would be quite problematic, I suppose that's something we have in common then?"
Blake raised an eyebrow. "What makes you say that?"
"Eh, just your quiet nature...normally people who are quiet and mysterious have something to hide. I should know, I was one myself."
Blake shook her head in a sort of fury. "Just because you can read other people's minds doesn't mean you should."
"I don't need to." Moon replied boredly. "If there's something you want to hide, that's completely okay. I can respect your privacy, so long as...you know...it isn't potentially harmful to others."
Blake seemed to bite her bottom lip for a moment as she fixed her yellow eyes on him. "So do you…"
"You can't run from your past forever," Moon said calmly. "Because your darkness will keep calling them back for as much as you'd hate it...they'll never be a memory."
Blake only nodded her head in suspicion. "Well, these are the books," she said, handing them off to him rather forcefully. "Hope you and your team are ready for our trip into the forever fall forest."
I can feel as though our bond with Blake has grown stronger
Confidant Established: Blake Belladonna
Rank 1
"Now, as I'm certain you are all aware, while the Forever Fall Forest is quite a sight to behold, it is quite dangerous." Moon shook his head at Professor Goodwitch's words. Sure, Grimm were deadly creatures according to the books, but the forest certainly couldn't be as dangerous as other places in Remnant.
Ozpin's assistant seemed to pick up on his disappointment, as he noted her frown at him. She quickly cleared her throat before speaking again. "Because of...an incident a few days ago, the Grimm have been lurking around more frequently than normal. So, a few students will be on guard duty, while others collect sap from the trees. Meet back here at 4 o'clock."
Several agonizing minutes later thanks to Weiss scolding Ruby on perfect tree farming conditions. Team MESS found themselves on a three point guard swap while Team RWBY. Moon and Sapphire were on the northern edge, and, as Sarah was unfortunately about to find out, Erick didn't want to waste a prime opportunity.
"Not now, Erick." Sarah said nervously to her friend.
"We're not going to get a better opportunity, the forest is heavily monitored and guarded because of the Grimm, we have free reign." Erick whispered back at her. "I want to find a Grimm and see what these things are all about! If my hypothesis is correct, you won't be in any danger, so Moon won't need to worry."
Sarah felt her PSI senses at her as she let out a sigh. "Well, you won't have to wait very long. There's something right out there, here it comes"
And, as per the usual, her PSI senses were right. A big werewolf-looking Grimm on all fours charged out of the clearing directly at them. If it hadn't been for Giygas' Nightmare form, Sarah heavily suspected she and her friends would be horrified at the sight of this. Alas, there were some things much more terrifying than a Beowolf.
The Grimm sort of snarled at the two of them as it continued to charge forward. Gripping Freya's handle, she prepared herself to smack the beast silly.
Then, almost inexplicably, the Beowolf just skidded to a halt in front of them. Quickly blinking in confusion, Erick did a double take to make sure Team RWBY was still occupied, which they were, Weiss was still giving her team a stern talking to about sap.
"Put your hand out. Just pretend you're using your telekinesis to halt it. Before one of them notices." Erick hissed at her. Sarah looked at him nervously, before reluctantly nodding.
The Beowolf still snarled at Erick as the genius approached it, but it didn't make any movement or even attack. It just kind of...snarled at them.
"B-Be Careful." Sarah said.
"Let's see…" Erick hummed. He reached out and placed a hand on the creature, he felt a very sharp, boney interior to it, in fact, he reasoned that, had he accidentally touched somewhere else, he might've cut himself. Once again, the Beowolf just snarled.
"Is everything alright over there?" Ruby's voice called.
"Everything is fine Ruby!" Sarah yelled back, before turning back to Erick. "Please, make this quick Erick, this already looks suspicious to an outsider, and Moon isn't here to talk us out of this."
"Okay...okay." Erick said, fascinated as he walked around the creature. "Weird red markings, the boney masks or faces, it has tusk fangs, I could see this thing being about as deadly as a rabid dog in all honesty, granted, these things can be up to nine feet long, but still, my point stands."
The genius then took out Gaia, which had been modified from a simple laser beam to look more like a gun version of Weiss' Rapier. Sarah watched as Erick turned the dial several times, stopping occasionally to fire a very elemental beam at the creature. Sometimes, the Grimm wouldn't snarl, other times, it would snarl as a reaction. Making Sarah flinch a little.
"Are...are you sure this is okay?" she asked. "What if the thing goes on a rampage? I mean, Ruby and the others are over there, and if it goes and attacks them-"
As if on cue, the Beowolf snarled one more time before charging past them right towards Team RWBY. Reacting quickly, Erick turned Gaia and fired a beam of light from blowing the creature into its evisceration process of death
"You bitches really are just loose pieces of a string when Moon isn't around aren't ya?" Dark Sarah hissed at her. Sarah shuddered as the painful image of Nightmare towered over her again. She was pulled back to reality by Erick's rambling.
"...I'd need more time, with more Grimm, but judging from the events of what just happened. I imagine that, perhaps the corruption emitted from you, me, and Moon doesn't exactly scream Grimm Magnet to them. Perhaps the Grimm are made of a similar process, and believe we are one of them. Or maybe Salem is…" he fell quiet as Sarah gave him a warning look.
"I wasn't going to suggest it, that'd be stupid of me. But we might have to prepare a backup plan if that is the truth about her. It's unlikely that this is the case, but if it is...well…"
"It's not…" Sarah replied, her voice kind of cracked a little.
"Regardless!" Erick continued. "I don't think that just our presence in an area would be full proof of stopping a Grimm invasion. As the book of Grimm Studies says, Beowolves aren't exactly the brightest. However, some Grimm learn and adapt, and are highly intelligent. Just because we can fool one, doesn't mean we can fool others. In addition…"
"Enough, Enough…" Sarah waved her hands in front of her face. "I get it, but save your analysis for Moon...he'll probably understand it better."
On the other side of their area of trees, Moon and Sapphire waved over to Team JNPR, or...rather, team NPR as Jaune wasn't there, they were walking back with a few glass jars of red sap.
"Um...where's Jaune?" Sapphire asked as the three of them walked into their clearing.
"Oh...he's uh...going to take a leak." Ren replied.
"And...you let him go by himself, in a forest full of Grimm?" Moon asked, a rather bitter tone in his voice.
"Jaune will be fine, he's been practicing with you two after all." Pyrrha replied, in a rather happier tone to what she had been with the two of them the night before."
"Yeah, I could feel that Juane's a lot more confident in himself, before he started working with you two, he was a blond princess and Pyrrha was his red knight in shining armor!" Nora giggled, Pyrrha blushed heavily as Moon and Sapphire both fought down a laugh.
"Yes...well, he still has a ways to go, and...without his semblance yet, it would be best to give him more basic training until he can make use of whatever "gift" he is given." Sapphire replied calmly to Jaune's team.
Three screams coming from the woods alerted the five of them, they all watched as the three other boys from Cardin's team, whose names Moon really didn't bother to remember as they were likely side characters likely to be forgotten about after a while, came crashing down on the ground in front of them.
"What happened to you guys?" Ren asked, noticing that the three boys had several injuries, ranging from what looked like a broken nose, to several sword or claw marks along their skin, and a few burns. None of them really said anything, except make low muddled moans.
"Sick…" Moon rolled his eyes. "I suppose your team's bullshit plan to get revenge on Pyrrha didn't go as planned?"
"Their what?!" Pyrrha was taken aback.
"Eh, I overheard that racist asshole Cardin talking about how he was pissed that you destroyed him in combat class, and upschooled him in history, so he was talking about doing something with wasps and shit as payback."
"And you didn't want to...you know...warn me?!"
"These four fuckers have the competence of a Disney Highschool Movie Bully's little gang of tough guys, they'd get struck by lightning four times in a row before they could come up with, and execute a good revenge plan."
They heard a much louder scream, which they all instantly recognized as Cardin's thanks to Moon's previous cafeteria beatdown, followed by a loud roar from a Grimm.
Moon silently sighed to himself at the thought of rescuing Cardin. "Alright, come on Sapphire." he said, rather irritably, "Let's go."
The large Ursa Grimm tower over Jaune as he stood, braced for combat with Crocea Mors Sword. After taking Sapphire's advice and standing up for himself after team CRDL attempted to blackmail him into throwing red sap on his team and unleashing Rapier Wasps on them. The ensuing scuffle against them had summoned the largest Ursa they had ever seen, which had Cardin pinned on the ground, and had smacked the rest of his team away.
He quickly blocked the Ursa's slash with his shield, before quickly swiping at the claw with his sword. Crocea did about as much as a simple crack to the large claw in its massive hand. Even though it would be more logical to probably run away, as no one other than CRDL knew he was with them, and he had some injuries that could justify falling over and pretending to be defeated so the Ursa could just go after Cardin...but...that would be wrong.
"AHHHH!" he charged towards the big beast and slashed diagonally downwards across the arm, Crocea actually hurt it this time, as it let out a massive roar before snarling, Jaune also noted that a bit of black ooze leaked out of the things mouth, blood maybe? Did Grimm even have blood? Either way, the black ooze dripped onto the ground and made an acidic puddle that fizzled out in time.
The Ursa spat out a bunch of the black stuff, which he quickly ducked out of the way, the Ursa reacted quickly though and smacked him aside where he collided with a tree and fell down. Grunting, he stood up, clutching his sword in his hand. Taking down an Ursa of this size was basically a death wish.
"Blazing End!"
The familiar sound of Moon's voice was followed by a surge of blue flames on which Saphira came spinning around and smacking the massive Ursa aside as the sword sliced into its thick bumpy skin. The Ursa snarled loudly as Jaune felt himself get a warm feeling inside and green light entered his vision.
"Thank me later, we've got a job, Go Sapphire!" Moon quickly barked at him as the blue bladed sword extinguished itself and flew back into his hands.
His blue haired friend, meanwhile, taking his leaders orders quickly charged towards the massive Grimm, Moon's hand flashed a yellowish brown color as the earth around the Ursa started to rise up, Sapphire quickly jumped on top of the rising earth before flipping over an attempted claw strike as he smashed Stalwart-Terra over the beast's head.
Not wanting to be forgotten, and seeing as how Moon had just healed him, Jaune got up and struck the Ursa's back leg as it turned towards Sapphire. Moon quickly followed up as he channeled water through Saphira, he swung his sword five times. Five blasts of water in the form of sword slashes splashed against the creature and nullified the black ooze it attempted to spit out.
Sapphire quickly channeled his energy into Stalwart-Terra as two rocks formed in front of. Taking a massive windup, he swung his axe and launched both boulders at the Grimm. Both boulders hit the creature, one on its right leg and one in its center. The Ursa screeched in pain as more of that black ooze spat out of its mouth, Moon twirled his sword around and summoned a bit of rain that was quickly able to dissipate the water with its properties.
"Go Jaune," Moon snapped, his hand flashed yellowish-brown as the earth started to form a platform for the blond leader of JNPR to get on. Nodding his head, Jaune quickly leaped on top of the rising earth, he stumbled a little, clearly Sapphire was much more used to this type of tactic. He waited until the earth had risen to give him a clear shot of the Ursa's head. Focusing, he leapt off the rock and, feeling a sudden tug on Crocea Mors he slashed through the creature, this time, the slash was deep enough for the creature to start eviscerating.
Jaune landed on the ground, but found himself tripping over his foot from the speed of impact and collapsed onto the ground with a thud.
He looked up as Moon reached down a hand for him, which he took to pull himself up. Sapphire walked over to them as well and slapped Jaune on the back.
"Great job Jaune!" The blue-haired boy boasted. "You did splendidly well, you're taking the training seriously."
"Hehe, thanks." Jaune replied sheepishly, rubbing the back of his head. "Though, if you two hadn't shown up, Cardin and I'd probably be dead meat."
"Speaking of which," Both boys turned their eyes to Moon, who was getting up from Cardin's once messed up body as his hand flickered green light. Cardin's body didn't look nearly as destroyed as it used to be from the wasps and Ursa attacks.
Cardin grunted as he stood up, looking at the three boys. He had an irritated glare and began to open his mouth before Moon held him at sword point.
"Before you adamantly try something stupid, like tell Jaune you'll rat him out like the little bitch that you are, consider that he didn't HAVE to protect you from the Ursa." Moon irritably said. "He could've just as easily excused his way out of this one and left you to die. So, here's what I'm thinking, how about, we pretend that you didn't get your ass handed to you and needed protection from the kid who you bullied for being weak, and...you can pretend that you never overheard Jaune talking about his forged records...sound like a deal?"
Cardin closed his mouth, irritably glaring at the leader of Team Mess, who, as Juane noted, looked much more mean than normal.
After a moment of a stare off, during which, Moon never lowered the tip of his blade from Cardin. The brown haired leader of Team CRDL eventually nodded his head.
"Good, now, shake Jaune's head and thank him."
"Come on Moon, that seems a littl-" Sapphire shot Jaune a look that made the blond leader hush up instantly.
Cardin muttered something in a voice too low for them to hear before walking over to Jaune and extending his hand out. "Thanks Jauney-boy." he muttered.
"We're even?" Jaune asked, taking the boy's hand.
"Yes, I guess we are." Cardin then began his walk over to Professor Goodwitch as Ozpin's assistant came running into the clearing, followed by everyone else.
Jaune turned back to Moon and Sapphire. "Um...thanks again...I suppose. I guess this'll put a stop to Cardin's antics."
"You can thank me later." Moon replied, giving Jaune a rare smile.
"I can feel as though our bond with Jaune has grown stronger."

As the majority of the class turned to leave, Moon quickly concentrated his glare on Pyrrha, before whispering
"Paralysis !"
He watched the redhead stumble for a bit as a small multi-colored spark touched her body. Numbing her as she collapsed falling back behind. He walked up to her and helped her up.
"Tripped?" he asked.
"Yeah...I think so." Pyrrha replied, not really understanding what happened to herself.
"Well, that kind of works out perfectly," Moon replied, giving her a smug smile as they started their own walk back. "Good idea using your Polarity Semblance to help Jaune get the finishing blow on that Grimm by making the sword slash deeper than it should've."
The red-headed warrior blushed at his words. "You uh...you knew it was me?"
"No offense, but Sapphire and I still need to work on concentrating his power into a swing. However, we are trying to hold off until we know what his semblance is. You know, so we can build a strategy around that which might be better suited for him."
"Yes, well, even if that takes a while, I can sense that Juane has more Aura around him than an average person, so it might take longer to take him out in combat." Pyrrha replied. She then quickly changed expressions to say. "You aren't going to tell him are you?"
Moon chuckled. "Please," he said. "I think this can just be our little secret."
"I can feel as though our bond with Pyrrha has grown stronger."

That's all for this chapter, I hope you all enjoyed it. Damn, crazy to think that all 89 fighters for Smash Ultimate have been revealed. But they aren't as important in this story. Hope you all liked my little jab at Disney, as well as a reference to a certain Irish Youtuber within that jab.
I find it severely underwhelming and weird that it was never actually brought to any adult's attention that Jaune did in fact cheat his way into Beacon Academy, and I say this, knowing full well that in like...two volumes or something, Rooster Teeth is gonna pull a fast one on me and make this look stupid. So, for the sake of making plot points happen before the show makes them happen, this is gonna go under the radar, sorry.
Also, I bet that scene with Sarah, Erick, and the Beowolf Grimm must've been a bit confusing to people. I guess knowing a bit of background on the Children of Giygas might give you an idea as to why the Grimm just snarled at them. However, even then, fans of RWBY can probably see where I'm going with this with a bit of context clues.
I have nothing against Sora, but, considering my story's sense of humor, you bet your ass I'll probably have a bunch more Disney jokes. And People call Nintendo stingy with their IPs, hell, the fucking board of Directors at Sqaure Enix have confirmed that they don't even bother asking Disney to put Sora in their crossover stuff because they hate the mere THOUGHT of putting up with their legal team lmao.
Either way, I've still got a bit more of volume one to cover, including the introduction of probably one of my favorite characters in the show, merely for her sense of style and comedy. There's never a good reason to say Salutations to someone, am I right?
Well, that's about it, see you all, next time!
