Hey everyone! RGQC here with a Carbot special chapter today and some news at the end of this chapter, so do check it out. It's important, and you all need to know about it. Besides that, let us move on with da reviews!
Familiarantiguo: Bueno, esa fue mi reacción la primera vez que lo vi en el juego. Tuve la sensación de que estaba escondiendo algo. Especialmente cuando Kerrigan comenta sobre su farsa y cómo Narud la llama una molestia. Y entonces me acordé de Duran. Pasarán años antes de que esta historia llegue a Legacy of the Void, pero haré todo lo posible para alcanzarla. Y estoy de acuerdo en que Penny tendrá algún tipo de parentesco con los Purificadores.
.1: Nope! Carbot time!
Maglad: True. But while RGQC understands her pain and grievance, he can act like an asshole if required, especially against someone he watched a hundred times as a villain in different dimensions and who recently tried to steal his collection. Like Koyanskaya had told Cinder and her gang, RGQC is not a good person. He tries, but even he would use morally wrong actions to get the job done.
Perhaps in a later chapter, RGQC will be more lenient. But not now.
J-SECTION-L: Seeing the current state of Blizzard, perhaps not. Let's just keep things the way they are.
Jamieoeyes: Interesting idea right there. I'll think about it, ok? Also, yea. Vol 9… I'm honestly afraid for Ruby. I hope she can keep going forward. But how things are going, I fear it might be too much for her, and it will not be a question of if she breaks but when. And when that happens, it will not be good. And that makes me afraid for Ruby's sanity. Will she be ok at the end?
Luhar1997: Will I be doing Nova covert ops story after the trilogy? I honestly don't know right now. It is too early, and I still need to finish Wings first, followed by Hearts and Legacy. It will no doubt take years to see all three done.
Guest: It's a maybe.
As always, I do not own RWBY or StarCraft. All these belong to their respective owners: RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth, and StarCraft 2 belongs to Blizzard Entertainment. The OCs in this story are the only ones I own.
Carbot special 3
Minutes passed since Summer, and her family had walked through the portal and found themselves in a room that felt homey and had several couches and chairs in it, even more so when Ozpin joined them as well for reasons he had not mentioned yet.
Summer sat on one of the couches as she noticed how comfortable it was, and once everyone sat, Tai was the first to speak. "Summer… That panic attack earlier was rough… Are you ok?"
"It was." Summer sighed as her daughters sat by her side. She could still remember it like it was yesterday. What was supposed to be a simple scouting mission for Headmaster Ozpin became a fight for survival as Salem struck. Her eyes soon faced Ozpin, who had remained silent the whole time. And for the first time since ever, his face bears guilt for her.
He was responsible for sending her alone to search on a simple Grimm extermination mission. He couldn't have foreseen Salem was alone, waiting for her in an ambush. It's a miracle she managed to force her away with her silver eyes. Even so, Salem resorted to throwing hundreds of thousands of Grimm of all ages at her.
Just like how Kerrigan from earlier was overwhelmed, so was she the same way.
Soon enough, a portal appeared as RGQC walked through it in a different outfit. He dressed in what everyone in the room could tell was a calming and serene outfit. RGQC also, for reasons beyond them, was wearing glasses that fit his outfit well.
"Sorry if I took a while from earlier; removing all the ash and soot covering me top to toe is no easy task," RGQC says as he sits on the lone chair opposite everyone. RGQC then noticed Ozpin in the room as well. "Huh, you're here too, Headmaster. How strange." The realm lord says as Ozpin nods his head.
"I have my reasons for being here, RGQC." Ozpin said as he glanced at Summer for a split second. Getting what Ozpin meant, the realm lord nods his head. Raven was also present as she leaned on the wall.
"I'm surprised you'll be the one helping Summer cope with her trauma." Raven muttered as the realm lord just nodded his head.
"Normally, I would send my servants to assist. But I feel it is better to help Summer recover from her PTSD personally, for I failed to notice how Summer's trauma would affect her in the previous viewing. It only feels right to right my wrongs myself." RGQC explained he took out a tablet.
"Alright, before we officially begin this therapy session, any words?" RGQC asked as Ozpin let out an audible sigh as he looked at the Rose family.
"Mrs Rose, I wish to apologise to you and your family for causing such pain to all of you." Ozpin bowed while Summer was stunned by her superior suddenly apologising for her supposed death.
"Ozpin! There's no need to apologise! Neither of us knew that mission would end like that!" Summer waved her hands in front. But Ozpin sees it differently.
"But it is my actions to have you go alone in that mission that led to your death, Mrs Rose. It would be wrong of me not to take responsibility for the pain I caused you and your family. And… I must apologise for the pain I caused all of you."
RGQC nods his head as he hums. "Alright. While I can't believe I have forgotten to bring him here, I suppose his help at the moment for this therapy session will be appreciated."
"Who are you bringing here, RGQC?" Summer asked as the realm lord just chuckled.
"Well, I'll just say that your family brought someone else to light up the mood," RGQC smiled as a portal appeared on the ceiling: the next second, a black-headed tricolour Pembroke Welsh Corgi with grey eyes fell into the middle of the room. It also had a red collar, a gold pendant bearing a vertical black bone, and two black dots on either side.
Those who knew the corgi immediately called it out as Ruby and Yang jumped towards it.
"ZWEI!"
As Ruby picked him up, Zwei barked as the corgi began licking her face.
"Huh, I was wondering who's watching over the dog with everyone here." Qrow wondered as Raven glanced at the realm lord before rolling her eyes. Of course, he would bring the dog over.
"We had a dog?" Summer could only ask as Ruby brought Zwei over to her mother.
"Yea! His name is Zwei! And Zwei's a good boy, right?" Ruby said with a smile on her face as Zwei barked.
"Arf!"
"Aww… He's so adorable." Summer had a child-like expression as she petted Zwei while the corgi happily barked in response at someone who looked like an older Ruby.
(Author here, I'm unsure when the Rose family got Zwei. But I guess it was a couple of years after Summer's disappearance. So, this is why I made Summer react as she does to Zwei.)
"Yup." RGQC smiled as he summoned beef jerky in his hand. Zwei sniffed the air before turning around to see an unknown person holding beef jerky in his hand. RGQC then knelt and handed the jerky to Zwei, who happily barked and ate the treat in the Realm lord's hand.
RGQC smiled as he slowly rubbed Zwei's head. "That I agree. Zwei's a good boy, am I right?"
"Arf!" Zwei barked as RGQC stood up and sat on his couch again.
"I believe it's time we get back on topic. First, though… I don't think Blake or Lily would be happy to see Zwei. Being a cat Faunus and stuff." RGQC chuckled and followed along. "Let's get this session on the way."
(I do not know what therapy sessions are like because I have never been to one, but just work with me.)
In another part of the RGQC's realm, Lily minded her business alongside Aries as both watched the vast enclosures which house certain species from Earth. She was always curious about what natural life was like in her dad's original world. The stories he tells always fascinated the young Faunus when she was just a kitten.
And now she has seen such large animals called Elephants that looked like Goliaths back home. Except for these gentle giants before her are not dangerous unless threatened. But their looks alone brought up memories of when she and her team were caught off guard on a botched mission when Goliath blocked their path to evac.
It wasn't easy, and she remembered how that beast instantly shattered her left arm when she distracted it from her team. Phantom pains coursed through Lily's arm as the elephants grazed the grass and watched over their young.
"Lily," The princess of Menagerie called Aries calling her. "You've been staring at these elephants for minutes now. Are you ok?" A concerned look could be seen on Aries's face as Lily shook her head.
"It's just… bad memories," Lily admits as she rubs her left arm as the phantom pains soothe. "My team were trying to retreat after a botched mission when a Goliath came in and prevented our escape. So, we're forced to fight, and in the process, the goliath shattered my arm in one hit."
A soft sigh emerged from Lily's lips. "You can imagine how mum and dad reacted when they received the news of my injury." Lily chuckled. "They were so worried about my health that both visited beacon to see me. That day, the reporters of Vale had a field day when the High King and High Queen of Menagerie suddenly came over to Beacon."
"They care for you. That's how I see it, Lily." Aries said as Lily agreed.
"Yup. Though the number of proposals I get from guys after that day got tiresome." Lily rolled her eyes as she heard footsteps behind her. But she did not turn back as she recognised those footsteps.
"Mom, Grandma Kali and Grandpa Ghira. I assume your viewing is over?" Lily asked as she turned to face her family.
Ghira was the first to speak. "That is correct, Lily. QAI points to where you were currently at." Kali simply nodded in agreement with her husband as she looked behind Lily to see some elephants.
"Those look like Goliaths back on Remnant." The belladonna matriarch commented as Lily nodded.
"Yup. Those are elephants, according to Aries. They are the largest existing land animals in RGQC's world." Lily stuck her thumb out and pointed behind her. "They exhibit mirror self-recognition, an indication of self-awareness and cognition according to the information in this tablet." Lily says as she takes a tablet from her cloak and hands it to her grandparents.
"Lily, I'm surprised you are hanging out in RGQC's reserve, learning more about animals. Is there something here that intrigues you?" Blake asked as Lily scratched the back of her ears, wondering how she would explain to her mom why she was there.
"Well… RGQC's realm holds so much knowledge that even on Remnant, we cannot find it thanks to the Grimm still present." Lily lets out a tired sigh. She remembered asking her parents why the Grimm were still around, even if Salem was defeated when she was younger.
The answer she got was that the Brother Gods left the Grimm on Remnant as a way to let them grow. Somehow. Even her parents had no idea what the brothers meant. But they were not in a position to demand questions or answers.
"And I was curious about the animals living in RGQC's home world," Lily added as Blake nodded her head. While she never said it openly, Blake suspected that her daughter was hiding something from her. As strange as that sounds. But Lily's spent most of her time reading about RGQC's origin, which was odd as it almost looked like an obsession.
Blake wanted to ask her daughter what was happening, but she was unsure how to say it without looking like she was interfering with her privacy. "Lily," Blake spoke slowly. "In one word, how would you describe your father?"
Kali and Ghira paused momentarily from talking to Aries to watch Lily frown with her hand on her chin. "If I were, to be honest, mum, it would be aspiration." Lily breathed in as she explained. "Dad did everything he could to help our people and push for increased rights everywhere. He also aspires to be a good father and husband to the best he can. I remember how we would wait for him to return home every day. And the times he would bring snacks home. Much to mom's annoyance." A smile grew on Lily's face.
"He even encourages us to seek out our future. It is why I chose to become a Huntress like them."
"Jade does sound like a wonderful man, doesn't he?" Kali giggled as Blake's cheeks grew red. Ghira grunted as Lily suggested something to help distract her mother from embarrassment.
"Actually, why don't we all go to the aquarium? I saw some edible fish that we had never seen before! And we can order a sample!"
"That sounds lovely, Lily. What do you think?" Kali smiled as Ghira just nodded his head.
And with their talk completed, the Belladonna family headed off together.
Moving on, most Atlesians were back looking through the vast collection of alternative worlds RGQC had been watching for some time. With Ironwood leading the group, they came across a particular alternative, Remnant, that QAI mentioned had more advanced robotics, with Alpha as their guide.
"We are here," Alpha said as she gently picked up what looked like an advanced hard drive. "This is the Remnant QAI was referring to earlier." Alpha continued as Penny curiously asked.
"Oh… how do we watch it?"
"The process is simple," Alpha said as the walls not too far away from everyone opened up to reveal a mini-theatre room. "Due to the lacking master's gift, the only way to witness such worlds would be how you all have been watching the StarCraft universe. As a result, a small theatre room has been prepared ahead of schedule."
"Thank you, Alpha." Ironwood and others gave a bow as Alpha walked into the mini-theatre room.
"Be aware that certain events may not go according to your timeline. As master says, keep your mind open." Alpha says as everyone from Atlas sits down on their couches while Alpha walks over to the projector and inserts the hard drive into it.
"If I may, Alpha," Pietro wonders. "What are we expected to see here?"
"Before you played a role as chief scientist, there was another before you, known as Dr Kurt Erhard. He does not exist in your Remnant if you were asking. But he does in this world. His actions alone had boosted Altas' robotics research by a large margin. Unfortunately, however, as of this recording, he has passed away. Only his legacy still lives."
"Interesting…" Pietro hummed in response to Alpha's explanation.
Soon, the screen lit up to show what looked like an experimentation room with an individual in the middle of the room. But her appearance is what caught their eyes. Her white combat suit has clear sockets, mostly on her back and neck, and several are on her shoulders.
A cloth-like material covered her body and looked like a dress, while metal rings could be seen levitating over her arms. Two massive black rings are on her head, and her twin white tail hairs go through each. Floating just behind her back was two black spheres and four sword-like structures.
The camera then showed her youthful face as everyone was granted the sight of her golden eyes and pupils were noticeably clover-shaped and white. It is an obvious hint that the girl on screen is no human.
"This is Luna Laurel. Android creation of Dr Watts and sister of Penny Polendina." Alpha explained as those who knew Watts had their eyes fully wide. Who would have thought that Watts wasn't disgraced and dead?
"I have a sister?" Penny smiles as Alpha explains further.
"In this world, you and Luna decided to recognise each other as sisters." A smile quickly grew on Penny's face watched the screen closer, and if everyone were to look up, they could see several scientists watching over as well. Watts himself was there as numerous scientists stood by his side.
"It is strange to witness Watts here again…" Winter comments as Ironwood agrees with his second.
"I agree. Yet, Watts looks proud of his work."
"I wonder what goes into the construction of Luna." Pietro hummed as the screen continued.
The screen shows then showed numerous Atlesian Knight-130, and spider droids pointed straight at her with their weapons. Yet it didn't deter Luna, for as the alarm to signal the test blared, Luna immediately extended her hand forward as the spheres and swords behind her shot ahead and began bashing or slicing everything they hit.
Most Atlesians were caught off guard by how fast Luna commanded her weapons to engage, even more so when they all noticed that they were not connected to her like Penny, who had wires from her back.
They could only watch as every single Atlesian Knight-130 and spider droid fired at Luna as she began to fly around to dodge all incoming projectiles thrown at her. Then, sensing a cannon shot from behind, Luna swung her arm to the back as the blades came to her before they spun rapidly in place and became a makeshift shield that tanked a shot.
Much to the Atlesian's surprise, Luna seemingly disappeared into thin air as numerous Atlesian Knights, and spider droids surrounded her into nothing but scrap metal. Luna then reappears behind one of the Atlesian Knights and sends a punch through its chest.
"Wow! She is amazing!" Penny says in awe as everyone else can only nod in agreement with their android.
"That she is. It's impressive for Watts to create such a powerful android." Ironwood begrudgingly has to admit.
"We can continue," Alpha says as every Atlesian nod their head as the screen continues playing. "Do note that we will only see clips of this world as Master had requested that certain parts of the world be restricted to you as of yet."
"A shame but understandable." Pietro voiced what was in everyone's head as they watched this version of Remnant.
As for everyone else, they were enjoying their time at the arcades, and they found a unique arcade game called the Lost Viking, which looked similar to the Viking ship they saw on screen. And while Yang and several others were seeing who could get the highest scores, the remaining adults left, like Robyn, were among RGQC's collection again for a while.
But eventually, they all received a notice from their scrolls that they could return to the theatre room to continue. RGQC also tagged Lily to come as it was time to get to something light-hearted to watch again.
And as they did, they could see the Rose family already there with Ozpin, even more so when they noticed a certain tricolour Pembroke Welsh Corgi among them. "Is that who I think that is?" Blake muttered as Lily also joined in. Her face paled slightly at the sight of Zwei.
"Oh, brothers, it's a dog. Why is there a dog here?"
"Not a fan of Zwei, I see?" RGQC chuckled as everyone sat on their seats while Blake and Lily warily watched Zwei play with the other guests. Kali could only giggle in response to how her daughter and granddaughter reacted. Not that she could blame them. She also feared dogs, and Kali instinctively got used to their presence only after growing older.
It made her wonder if her alternative daughter and husband must be used to the presence of dogs after growing older. Perhaps if RGQC were to bring her again or her husband, she could ask them. But for now, Kali will enjoy their reactions and tease them later.
"Well then," RGQC spoke again once everyone fully settled down. "After the last viewing, I think it is time we return to our cartoon session, yes?" RGQC smiled as many agreed with him. His head turned to Pietro, who typed something down on his scroll. Using telepathy on Pietro, the realm lord could understand what was going through his mind.
"I see… so the Atlesians decided to explore alternative Remnants to learn. And they found one who had Alpha and Luna on that Remnant. Part of me is glad I'm prepared for that to happen. It must be fascinating to see machines acting like humans. And it looks like they witnessed Luna's and Penny's upgrade. I wonder what will they do now?"
RGQC closed his eyes as sighs of relief could be heard among some of the guests, and he couldn't blame them. The last mission was spine-chilling for many of them to witness such a Zerg infestation in a ruined city. Finally, some light-hearted and comical scenes should get their spirits back up.
Shame they won't understand some of the meta jokes until later.
"Without any due, QAI, let us continue where we left off." RGQC smiled as he sat on his chair while QAI could be heard.
[Understood.]
"Oh, this is going to be good! I can feel it." Sun sounds all giddy as the screen lights up.
The screen lights up to show a supply deposit blocking the entrance into the main Terran base while the audience can tell that this continues where they left off the last time. The two roaches from the previous viewing came into view as they tunnelled toward the Terran main base.
"Wait, they cannot tunnel under the supply deposit because of its ability to go under?" Weiss asked as RGQC just rested his hand on his lips.
"Something tells me it will be hilarious when we find out how." Blake comments as they watch on.
"Agreed." Ilia agrees.
Upon reaching the supply deposit, one of the roaches used its claw to knock on it like a door. And much to everyone's amazement, it went down as a marine lowered the wall and stepped on it, wondering who knocked. The roaches sneak in through the lowered supply depot, which boggles the minds of the more mature audience.
"What the?" Winter gave a confused look, as was Ironwood. "That's not how it works, right?"
As for the others, they began laughing at how the roaches tunnelled through the lowered supply deposit. Upon the marine returning to the main base and the supply deposit raises, everyone saw large holes where the roaches had tunnelled through.
Laughter broke out immediately as many could not understand the logic of how that worked, but the fact that the roaches somehow tunnelled through what looked to be several tons of steel didn't help.
"Hahaha! It looks like logic decided to take a break!" Lily began cackling as even more laughter broke out.
"Yo, Blake," Yang nudged her partner before whispering into her ear. Or is it ears? "One hell of a laugher your kid had, huh?" Yang grinned as Blake rolled her eyes at her partner's comment.
The scene then changes to show an orbital command minding with its SCVs mining minerals until the roaches resurface among the SCVs and entrap one of them.
"Welp, good to know you SCV." Qrow muttered.
With an SCV caught by it, the roach began slowly drooling a drop of acid saliva on its face, only for a punisher grenade sound could be heard as it hit the offending roach in the face, killing it instantly.
"I hear a marauder!" Penny states the obvious.
The roach looked at its dead partner before seeing where the shot came from. And as Penny said, it cuts to show a much more adorable marauder with its barrel smoking.
"Aww… look at the baby marauder…" Coco began cooing, much to her friend's confusion. "What? They look cuter, don't they?" Only to get blank stares from them.
"KABOOM, Baby!"
The marauder uttered as he pointed his other arm at the roach and fired. However, the roach quickly burrowed into the ground as the punisher grenade missed the roach and hit its already dead partner. Turning it entirely coal black.
"Aw, it missed." Nora pouts adorably as Ren assures her.
"I'm sure it will die eventually."
The scene then cuts to show the orbital command with its satellite dish pointing directly at the burrowed roach as it tries to escape. Everyone could hear another punisher grenade before it came onto the screen and slammed into the roach.
Humorously enough, the attack from the marauder sent the roach flying off the ground as he began to chase it. The orbital command watched him as it was an exciting affair to witness.
"I see now…" Ozpin rubbed his chin. "I believe they could see the roach burrowed because the orbital command uses scanner sweep to reveal it."
"But in this case, it's the orbital command looking at where the roach was." Glynda adds in as RGQC nods his head.
"Yup."
A marine who everyone guessed from earlier also joined the case as it cuts to a marauder chasing after the roach. Only for it to accidentally tunnel through a cliff face and fall off it. Seconds passed before a very faint thump could be heard before it cut to black.
"And the cliff claims its first victim." RGQC began chuckling to himself
"And I suppose we could see more people fall off the cliff in the future?" Lily asked as RGQC nodded.
"You speak as if you could see that coming, Lily." Ruby says as Lily just shrugs.
"It's just a feeling, you know? I'm just guessing that's what RGQC words meant."
"That… makes sense…" Weiss agrees.
"The next part is a bit short but still as funny." RGQC chuckled.
The screen lit up again to show a factory lifting off the ground and flying off somewhere, much to everyone's confusion. But none chose to speak up until the show provided more context.
The scene then changed to show a Protoss base as probes mine minerals, only for the same factory to begin floating above the mineral line.
"Is this some sort of recon in the process?" Penny could only ask as Pietro shrugged.
"Perhaps Penny."
It did not take long for three stalkers to arrive and begin firing at the factory, which started to turn back. The stalkers continuously lay down Particle disruptors onto the factory as it caught fire.
Noticing that something terrible was going to happen to the Protoss, Jaune points out. "Wait… wouldn't that make it fall out of the sky?"
"Oh boy." Yang could only mutter.
As the stalkers continued to fire upon the factory, one picked up a rock from the ground and threw it directly at the factory. Unfortunately, it was the final blow to accidentally bringing down the factory on their workers.
Chuckles broke out as all of the stalkers had stunned looks upon witnessing their probes get crushed by the fallen factory. It got even funnier when the offending stalker, who threw the rock, booked it and fled from the scene right before the factory blew up in flames and the screen cuts to black.
"Rock op!" Nora laughed as Jaune agreed.
"Imagine if we can kill Grimm by throwing rocks at them!"
"Technically, friend Jaune, if you were to throw a rock at high velocity, the blunt force may be able to kill a Beowulf."
Even mature audiences had to admit that the factory landing on the probes was unexpected and made so much sense simultaneously. Even more, as the factory fell like a rock onto the poor probes minding their own business.
"Alright, next scene, please." RGQC said as he chuckled at his audience's enthusiasm. And that's a good thing too. The next mission Raynor will do will require a lot of sunscreens.
The screen lights up to show a Zerg expansion base with two spine crawlers playing a card game which, from what everyone could guess, was poker, while Derpfestor watches them. Seeing two literal whips with spikes playing a game made some laugh at how absurd things can be.
However, that changed when they heard someone coming towards them, and it was revealed to be an immortal walking to the base. "This shall be your reckoning." The immortal says the spine crawlers began to stab it repeatedly. However, their attacks have little effect due to hardened shields.
"Welp, they tried." Neptune had a slight grin only to see the immortal firing a single shot and obliterating the spine crawler with one hit.
"That has to be exaggerated because I don't remember immortals taking out spine crawlers with one hit." Qrow points out as the realm lord agrees.
"Yup, but it's funny to see."
Another pointless stab came from the other spine crawler as the Immortal turned to face it. As if it had realised its mistake, the spine crawler unrooted itself and tried to escape. It's a shame that the immortal fired a single shot that sent it flying so far that it nearly fell off the cliff and was left hanging at the side of the cliff with its Impaler tentacle.
"As my dad would sometimes say, mistakes were made when he was younger." Lily chuckled at the memory of her mom telling her how one time her dad fucked hard that he could only respond with that phrase.
"Really?" Blake asked her alternative daughter, and she nodded.
"One time, dad seriously messed up something that made him quote that, and if I remember correctly, you tied him up in your room. And then there were strange noises coming from your room after that. I don't know what that was about. You just told us to go back to sleep if we hear any noises from your room." Lily could only scratch her head, while those who understood the hidden meaning could only blush.
Including Blake herself.
Despite that, Yang just laughed. "Wow! Didn't know you have that in you to do that."
"I can't believe my alternative self did that to him like that scene in Ninjas of Love!" Blake's cheeks could only blush further as she refused to say anything.
…
"I wonder how it was?" Blake could only wonder the next second as RGQC's face crunched up a bit. Apparently, Jade tends to be surprisingly submissive in their nightly session. When RGQC first discovered it, the realm lord was unsure how to feel about his alternative self.
Soon, Bob and a sentry entered the expansion base. The sentry looked at the ramp as it cut to several Zerglings on the high ground playing around when one noticed an incoming threat. That galvanised the other adorable Zerglings as they rushed to the base defences.
Only to be blocked by the sentry's force field as the first Zergling faceplants onto the force field while the others bounced off it.
"That's a smart use of the forcefield," Robyn observed as Ironwood nodded.
"Indeed. As shown here, blocking the enemy from protecting their base is a good way. Perhaps if we have the time, we could invest some time into our hard light Dust technology if we have the time."
"Agreed."
The screen cuts back to the spine crawler dangling at the cliff's edge until bob comes in and stomps on its grip for a couple of seconds until the spine crawler loses its grip and falls.
"There it goes." Mercury points out. "Another claimed by the cliff."
"Something tells me this will be a regular occurrence," Emerald mumbled while the realm lord thought to himself.
"Well… not really, since it somehow lived till the show's end. Climbing its way back to the top."
Bob soon ran back and attacked the hatchery while numerous bumps on the ground eyes watched as he slashed and even kicked it. Only for the hatchery to hit him back in the face with its claw.
"Aww… those dronies are hiding." Nora points out with her finger.
"Makes sense; they are not for fighting." Ren nods his head.
Coco soon snorts when the hatchery suddenly punches bob in the face. "Can they actually do that?" Coco then asked as RGQC shook his head.
"Nope, but all for comedy's sake." The realm lord just grinned.
The screen then cuts to show the immortal walking past the Derpfestor, only for it to throw an infested swarm egg at the immortal as it bounced off its back. It would be an understatement to say that Derpfestor did not stand a chance as the immortal blasted it with one shot before taking out an infested marine that hatches soon after with a single shot.
"Immortal Op!" Nora shouts again as giggles break out upon witnessing that infestor getting bodied on the spot.
"Makes me wonder how many of these animations we can watch…" Summer wondered as RGQC helpfully told her.
"We are currently in season one. There are at least seven seasons worth of animation. We can watch more in the future."
"Wow, that's a lot! And the animation improves as well?" Ruby asked as the realm lord nodded his head.
"Yup."
"Awesome!"
The screen cuts back to show the immortal turning around and obliterating the hatchery just as Bob close into an attack, splatting its purple substance all over Bob.
"Ew, splattering noises." Ilia retches slightly despite seeing Zerg structures exploding into a shower of blood and gore before. But at that time, the spattering sound was diminished thanks to the environment.
Seeing that victory was achieved with the destruction of the Zerg expansion base. Bob let out a cheer.
"En Taro Ta-" Unfortunately for him, Bob was interrupted when Broodings suddenly attacked and pounced him in the middle of his speech as the screen cut to black.
That scene alone made some of the younger audiences laugh at how unexpected that was. Yet it was also funny how the Zealot was in the middle of his Battle cry as Broodings pounced on him.
The screen suddenly lights up again, and the screen rewards the audience with the sight of one of the Zerglings acting like a puppy, and they can only coo as it begins to play with the force field before licking it. Then the screen cuts to black again.
"Ohm, they are so cute compared to their real counterparts." Neo could only coo as Torchwick chuckled at something that appeared in his head.
"Make me wonder if the Ultralisk is just giant puppies in this animation."
"Please, no." Lily muttered as RGQC hummed.
"You know… there is a children's book series in my world about the adventures of a precocious girl named Emily Elizabeth and her titular pet: a giant, red-furred dog named Clifford." RGQC had a look of nostalgia on his face. "You know… if you have the time, feel free to check out the libraries. I gathered many works of literature and stories over the million or two years as a realm lord."
"A giant red dog. No thanks…" Blake added in as her friends just giggled at their reactions.
[Notice Master. A fellow realm lord had created a portal to this theatre room. And she's bringing in another guest from their world.] QAI suddenly spoke up as RGQC was genuinely frustrated at what was happening.
"Oh, for the love of, hang on." The realm lord muttered as he took out his tablet and read who was coming. And upon reading it, RGQC glances at Blake and lily and back to his tablet.
"Shit… Talk about fucking up cohesion for my guests." RGQC curses as he pulls up a mask and makes it so that cat ears appear on his head.
"Is there something wrong?" Ruby worriedly asked the realm lord as he kept his tablet.
"QAI, prepare the pacifier just in case," RGQC muttered as a portal opened and a man with red hair, a black suit jacket, and a Grimm mask on his face dropped from it. Those who knew the man could only watch silently as Blake, in particular, could only begin to shiver in terror.
Why is he here?! Who brought him here?!
Ilia doesn't know how to feel about the situation at the moment. But, after hearing Blake's and her daughter's words, Ilia concluded that the path the White Fang is going through is incorrect. And neither is Adam's intended path.
But as Adam Taurus got back to his feet and before he could question what was happening or where he was, Adam soon found a blade against his throat, for Lily was the one to react with such hostility, much to everyone's shock except RGQC's.
"Don't you dare fucking move, you bastard! I don't know how or why you're here, but if you even dare to move or speak! I'll slit your throat where you stand!" Lily hissed out poison while Adam was too surprised to speak or act since the girl with her blade against his throat looked like his beloved. Except her eyes were green and not amber.
"Nor will I forgive you for attempting to kill my parents multiple times, if I may add fucker!" Lily cursed out as she pushed her blade closer towards Adam's throat.
As for RGQC, he had enough. "Lily! That's enough! Stand down!" The realm lord ordered as Lily glared at the realm lord.
"I get your hatred for this man. But let me deal with him." Lily stared straight into the realm lord's eyes before turning her hatred back on the man who stood before her.
"Tch. Fine." Lily growled as she pulled her blade away from Adam's throat and began to walk away.
"I don't even know who you are." Adam muttered in shock as RGQC signalled the rest to leave the room now.
"You will eventually…" Lily growled as she gritted her teeth at Adam one last time before leaving with the others.
"Alright… time to deal with this nonsense…" RGQC could only grumble to himself as Adam turned towards him.
And we are done with this Carbot special chapter! And first of all, I'd like to inform you that due to the pain of writer's block, I plan to take a short break from it and return to it around Mid-April. I hope you understand, as it's getting increasingly more complicated for me to stick to the plan, which is frustrating. So, I hope this Carbot chapter is good enough.
First of all, Summer's therapy session. I know it isn't much, but I don't know how to do therapy, so it felt so left out. I hope you understand my reasoning. And yes, Zwei appears, as I thought having him appear during Summer's therapy session with her family and Oz was appropriate.
Moving on, more family time with the Belladonnas, Lily's fascination with Earth, and how she sees her father as upon Blake's question. More mother and daughter moments. Then we have our Atlesians guests taking a peek into another Remnant of my creation. *Cough* Promoting another story over here. *Cough*
It is all but a glimpse of what they were up to, and perhaps I moved on to react to the multiverse thing. Then I can show everyone else alternative worlds and give a glimpse into some of my stories or your suggestions.
Lastly, as you have seen in this chapter, Zwei and Adam officially appeared. It was time I added some more villainous characters. So why not the crazy ex of Blake himself? And yes, Lily despised his guts so severely that she wanted him dead where he stood. All I can say is that she got it from her dad. The protective side. Not the murderous side.
I'm done talking, as with my other work. If you like my work and want to see more of it in the future, favourite and follow this work of mine. Suppose you wish to say anything to me, good or bad. Leave a review. I will answer it if I feel it is relevant or want to address it.
With that, I will see you guys in the next chapter in about two months.
RGQC out!
