Hey guys so a couple things.
First sadly notifications are down, so I will be updating dates for when this story will be updated in the summary so be sure to check it every now and then to see if I have a set date. Man it's annoying when they do this.
And I'm sure some of you are wondering when I'll come back to the main story.
I will say I do not have a date yet but know that I am working on it, I have a good bit of it planned out I just want to finish my other story DBOT first and then I'll be back to it.
Just wanted to let ya'll know that and of course feel free to send me ideas and I'll see if I can fit them in the next arc or future arcs.
Either way at least this story will continue while you wait.
Hope you enjoy.
The screen came on showing a familiar lab.
"Hey everybody!" Fu yelled. "Ya'll miss me?" He asked. "Sorry for the long wait, Chronoa keeps trying to stop me just because she hates it when I have fun."
He pulled up his tablet. "Now then let's tally up the last voting poll.
A: 3
B: 4
C: 3
D: 9
"What if Kid Kron killed Raven part 2" He pulled out a scroll labeled "D" and flipped it. "Alrighty time to see what happens next to a timeline with Raven already dead."
"Let's watch."
He placed the scroll at the bottom and it started an image.
What if Kid Kron had killed Raven part 2
An event was taking place within the Golden Daggers Arena.
The ring was more decorated than before as it had more funds than in the Prime Timeline.
The underground ring now had four giant daggers that looked like they were made of solid gold at every corner of the ring.
"Ladies and gentlemen! The event we all have been waiting for, the match between two champions!"
"Coming from the Vale Kingdom's, Dead End Arena" The announcer hyped up. "Is Slate the Mirror Wall!"
On one side of the ring a man with grey hair and armor walked in the arena.
"And our very own champion, the Slayer of Raven Branwen, the Scourge of Anima!"
On the other side, in Kron's classic mask, black top, grey sash and black pants with white boots, walked in with his arms crossed, as if he was uninterested in this 'event'.
Slate growled looking at Kron's posture thinking that this would be his win.
Kron showed no reaction already knowing the outcome.
"Welcome to our annual champion match! Let's see if the Scourge can prove himself as the strongest champion!"
Slate stood in a combat stance while holding up his shield with multicolored Dust crystals embedded in it, called Shatterspin.
Kron kept his arms at his sides as if he didn't need to be ready.
"Now let's begin this clash of titans!" The announcer yelled. "Begin!"
The audience all screamed excited at this.
As soon as the match started Kron made his move, but he merely walked forward slowly towards his opponent.
"What's this? The Scourge of Anima is only walking like he's enjoying a stroll in the park!"
The audience all looked confused and wondered if he was getting cocky from all the wins he had already.
Slate growled watching him just walking towards him, this boy had won three times against him before, but he never took it so easy with him.
He'll remind him that he's not to take it likely.
He held up Shatterspin and pulled the trigger inside the shield.
It spun and fired red and yellow Dust crystals.
As Lightning and Fire Dust crystals were launched towards him at high speeds as Kron merely kept walking.
Kron may not get to enjoy a good fight, but he will enjoy showing off.
The Saiyan kept walking and with Ki enhanced hands he punched, chopped, and swiped all the Dust crystals headed for him and kept walking.
"What?!" Slate yelled never seeing him countering his attacks with so little effort.
"Unbelievable!" The announcer yelled. "The Scourge is walking through the Dust crystals while destroying them with his bare hands like it's no problem! This is way more disrespectful than any of the matches these two champions have had in the past!"
Slate was starting to panic as the young man was still walking towards him, he wasn't even using any energy attacks!
Once he was within range, he realized he had no choice, he activated his Semblance, Mirror Force and a grey barrier was created in front of him.
It doesn't matter how strong he is! His Semblance will always deflect his attack back to him!
Kron got ins striking distance he threw a punch.
Slate smiled he was making this too easy!
Once Kron's punch landed, like the Prime Timeline his fist wasn't countered.
His fist shattered the barrier and slammed into Slate's face.
The punch sent the other champion flying off the ring and his body hit the wall at the edge of the audience.
For a few moments the audience was silent, and they looked at Dead End Arena's champion was unconscious.
"Oh my god!" The announcer yelled. "Our champion has beaten Slate in one hit! The winner is the Scourge of Anima!"
Kron looked at the cheering audience and rose the fist he used to knock out his opponent.
The fight wasn't fun but looking at the audience cheering for his strength made up to him. It's what kept him from leaving the arena.
While he enjoyed the attention someone far away was watching him closely.
(-)-(-)-
Vale
Yang was in Dead End Arena looking at a screen of the champion she had to beat to get to the one who killed her mother.
She knew he'd be strong, but not like this.
The blonde was sure that she can beat Slate right now, but not one shot him like he did.
Not to mention that he killed Raven at a young age, when she had huntress training and possible had a better understanding of her magic than she did.
Yang squeezed her fists at the sight thinking she had a long way to go.
And that was if her father didn't know what she was doing behind his back, knowing him she doesn't have long to do it.
Ruby can't keep him in the dark forever.
She's just happy her uncle was on a mission right now out of Vale, he would have found out by now.
(-)-(-)-
Anima
Like the Prime Timeline Qrow was tasked with two missions.
The first was to find out as much intel on the Scourge of Anima as possible but not to engage with him.
He felt he did the best he could, he knew he was in the Golden Daggers Arena, he hadn't spoken to Daim but he got in to the audience and watched him in action without anyone noticing.
Seeing what he did againts a fellow champion showed that he was definitely the real deal.
He was the kid who killed his sister, a true Maiden.
Qrow wanted to say that he no real love for her anymore after everything she did, but it did hurt knowing that she got killed.
That she never lived long enough to finally choose to turn her life around like he did, doing the right thing instead of killing innocents for a bunch of thieves and murderers.
And not to mention she chose to raise a kid that wasn't hers and used as her weapon.
If only she had been willing to work together to get the kid on the right path, she'd probably still be alive right now.
Part of him wanted to capture him like he did to the Branwen Tribe.
But he knew it would be fruitless and besides, whatever happened to her was what she deserved, she chose this.
From what he knows the Scourge had stopped killing all together and had been commited to the Golden Daggers Arena, every now and then he leaves the continent to fight the champions of Dead End and Bloody Sands arenas.
Even in the arenas he doesn't kill, it looked as though whatever happened between him and Raven removed his drive to kill which can only be a good thing.
If only he could find out what happened and why he killed her.
But that mission was completed, now though it was time for his second task.
Like the prime timeline during his investigation of Kron he found out about some unusual corpes that seemed to age.
During the investigation he came across Tyrian who was in the middle of using a strange clear looking Dust Crystal.
Qrow would pursue him and just like the Prime Timeline the Scourge appeared.
Kron stood across from both the Scorpion and the bird.
"He's the brother of Raven Branwen!" Tyrian giggled. "Surely you'd have more reason to speak with him then me?"
Qrow panicked a bit, he wasn't sure what to do ,if the Scourge hates Raven enough he might go after him since she's already dead. Hopefully that's not the case otherwise he's dead.
Kron glanced at Qrow his expression hidden by his mask, it looked as though he was going to do what his Prime counterpart had done.
Qrow was rambling his brain wondering how to get out of this situation.
Tyrian turned to escape betting on Kron's hate for Raven would allow him to take him out.
But he yelled and turned to him and was shocked to see Kron grabbing his tail.
Qrow looked surprised to.
Kron then pulled and threw him againts a tree.
"W-what are you!" Kron then appeared and restrained him so he couldn't move.
The huntsman did nothing but watched as he seemed to be focusing on keeping his enemy in one place.
Kron looked at Qrow while gripping Tyrian by the throat.
"The hags already dead, are you here to get revenge?" He asked with a neutral tone.
Qrow tried to remain calm not wanting to start a fight.
"No" He said to him. "She and I weren't so close anymore."
It was sad but true he was angry at him for killing his sister. If he were strong enough he'd definitely attack him but knowing what she had done helped make it easy to say this and that he was outmatched.
"Fine then how about I trade you this weakling for some information."
Tyrian tried to sting him with his tail.
Only for Kron to grab it and kicked the Scorpion's side.
The kick shattered his Aura and knocked him out.
Qrow was shocked to see how little effort even though he shouldn't have been. He beat a Maiden on his own at a young age.
"We got a deal?" Kron asked holding the unconscious scorpion.
Qrow nodded wondering what he wanted to know.
"First off that power Raven had with controlling elements are there more like her?"
The reaper hesitated with telling him anything but he decided to be vague while telling a bit of the truth.
He didn't want him to know is the identity of the current Spring Maiden.
"Not sure, I didn't even know she had them until I found out she died, Vernal told me when I arrested her tribe, wasn't sure. I believed or not she never showed me these powers."
Kron heard that the Branwen Tribe had been captured just not who did it.
"Guess that makes sense, I only found out the first time she tried to kill me."
First time? She must have failed to control him and things got of hand.
"Do you know where I can find others like her?"
That was something he knew not to tell.
"No idea but why?"
"I need a real fight, haven't had one since Raven and I want to find others."
Fight not kill. Not that it persuaded him to tell him about Yang.
"Sorry, I got nothing, all I know about these people is that they're only a few of them and there's no way to find them."
In the prime timeline Kron would force Qrow into a fight to get information he wanted.
In this one Kron had no reason to do so, with Raven already did he was a lot calmer and less easy to get angry.
"Figures" He tossed Tyrian towards him.
The assassin fell in front of Qrow.
The reaper was suprised and watched him leave.
"Feel free to try to take revenge if you want just know it won't well." He said to him before flying away.
Qrow sighed. "That could've gotten bad." He knelt down and looked over the knocked out Tyrian and saw a strange bags with different colored dust crystals.
Slate stood before the newcomer who had completed the champions trial at Dead End Chasm.
Yang had her yellow Zhulong mask glaring at her next obstacle her final opponent before she takes the reign as champion of Dead End Arena.
"You little brat you think you can take my position?"
Behind the mask Yang smirked.
"Sure I can, mirrors break real easy you know."
Slate growled.
"Match begin!"
Yang ran towards Slate.
Slate smiled as he put his shield in front of him, and applied a grey barrier.
Once her fist connected, she felt it.
The force of her own punch was repelled and sent her back.
After that Slate pulled the trigger to his shield Shatterspin, it spun firing shards of lightning and fire Dust.
Yang stood up and remembered how the Scourge of Anima was able to deflect each with so much ease.
But these were coming to fast and she had to block to survive them all.
"It looks like Slate is overwhelming the Golden Zhu long, looks like he will protect his title!"
Slate grinned, he was still angry for so easily losing to that brat again but he will not lose to this brat!
Yang grimaced as she kept blocking it, her Aura was draining fast, it's only a matter of time before it overwhelms her. She can't belive that the Scourge was able to walk through this and end the fight in one hit!
Still, she had to win somehow.
It's only a mtter of time before her father and uncle find out what she's doing, she has to win now before it's too late.
Yang thought of using her Maiden magic, it would definitely turn the tide in her favor.
But no, if she does it might expse what she is which Ozpin warned her not to do unless absolutely necessary.
She had to play it smart with just her Aura.
Yang slammed the ground with her fist while still being pelted by the multi colored Dust Spikes and pulled up a huge metal plate that seemed strong enough to withstand the spikes.
The result was a giant explosion that filled the ring with smoke.
Slate growled in annoyance seeing the are covered in smoke and stopped firing.
Smart girl she couldn't take that barrage for long so she covered the area in smoke.
Now to wonder where will she attack from, probably from behind.
But to his surprise Yang was right in front of him with a fist cocked back.
All this smoke and she chose to attack head on, he couldn't help but think she was a full.
Yang slammed a fist forward.
Leading to Slate creating a barrier to absorb and deflect the attack back.
The blow was strong but only strong enough to push Yang back slightly.
Slate found that odd, she pulled that last punch, she must not have wanted to risk knocking herself out.
He then slammed abackhand with Shatterspin.
The blow connected and forced her head back.
He then slammed a kick into her stomach.
But this time Yang caught the kick and threw her fist.
Slate created his barrier again with a smile, surely she can't win threw this.
The girl changed trajectory and slammed a fist into the ground.
This made the champion trip and undo his Mirror Force.
Yang's eyes turned red, indicating she finally activated her Semblance, with all the power she stockpiled from the damage she took this whole fight she finally slammed her fist into Slate's face.
Slate's eyes widened as he was thrown off the arena and crashed against the wall causing the arena to shake.
Yang fell to one knee and panted heavily.
In this timeline Yang had better training both in her Maiden abilities and her combat. She learned how to better use her head when she's getting angry and not to overrely on her Semblance.
Which was why she didn't have to use her magic to win the fight.
"And the winner is the Golden Zhulong! Our new champion!"
Yang held a fist up high enjoying the attention as she did in the Prime timeline.
She did it, she won with her Aura not her magic, she took on a champion without anything speacieal.
This was it just a few months and she can challenge the Scourge of Anima!
—-
Yang walked out of the Beowolf Brew, changed back into her brown jacket and yellow undershirt.
She was ecstatic, it took some time but now it won't be long before she finally meets her mother's killer.
While squeezing her fists. She was excited to fight someone so strong but also scared, she wasn't sure if she can win knowing he killed her when he was a kid.
But she slapped her cheeks, it wasn't the time to be scared. This guy, he was raised by Raven and he killed her, she had to know why.
Because of him she will never meet her mother, she will never get the answers she wanted from her.
She had to at least know why he killed her, and if she can let him get away with it.
As Yang walked towards her bike she bumped into someone.
The Spring Maiden looked scared at the sight.
It was a blonde man with a soul patch crossing his arms.
"Yang" Taiyang said sternly. "Where have you been?"
Yang was brought home by her father and was sitting next to Ruby.
"I can't believe this, we give you the free time you wanted and you were doing illegal underground fighting behind our backs!"
Yang didn't say anything for a moment, she had an angry look and wasn't responding like she had something againts her father.
"And you Ruby." He looked at his younger daughter. "Why have you been covering for her?" He asked. "You should have told me about this."
The young girl looked away ashamed, Yang asked her to just let her do her thing and if their dad and uncle find out she'll handle it. But she was covering for her, hoping to convince her to stop.
"Don't blame her dad I i was the one who did she kept trying to convince me to stop, I never asked her to cover for me."
Taiyang sighed. "Yang listen to me I know what your after." He started. "This needs to stop, the Scourge of Anima, we don't know how strong he is, and even if you could beat him your throwing yourself in danger, you already have Maiden magic, you know the people who are after you, putting yourself in the underground fighting arenas will make it easy to find you."
She remembered the people everyone said was after them. A powerful witch that can control Grimm, that there were three others like her out there in the world.
And she had to train to fight against humanity's greatest threat.
It was a lot of pressure but ultimately she embraced it, she loved the training she was getting and was looking forward for a fight againts strong opponents.
Her sister was actually jealous of her even though she confided in her that the pressure can be a bit much at times even for her.
And how she got this power was what bothered her, the last thing her mother ever thought was her. She gave her this power.
And she'll never know why.
"I know dad." Yang admitted. "But I can't just sit still, I need to find this guy, I need to know why he killed her when she chose him over me." She said to him. "Over us."
"Yang" Taiyang sighed. "I wanted your mother to come back I did, I wish she could tell you things I don't know and despite everything I am sad that she's gone regaurdless of what she'd done." He had always hoped that Raven would find another way to live her life that she would be an actual mother to Yang. Not to take her back, just to show her daughter she cared. "But everything she did, she chose it, however she died she chose to be alone, I don't know why he did it, but I am sure that it was something she caused.
He knew Raven better than anyone.
Yang's fire started to show. "And she thought about me when she gave me this power." She said to her. "Maybe she would have come back, maybe she could have apologized, maybe she could have been better." She said to him. "But now we'll never know."
Taiyang sighed scratching the back of his head. "I wish I knew to, one day we'll find out, but only when we're ready, I don't want to know what his Scourge will do if he finds out she had a daughter."
Qrow told him of his encounter with him and how he casually handed Tyrian to him
"Dad" Yang began. "I know mom, Summer was my mother I love her and no one can replace that even if she didn't give birth to me." She said sadly. "But still Raven did care for me and I have to know why she died, and I might only have one chance."
Taiyang's expression softened as if he wanted to know to.
"I don't know how long he's going to stay in the Golden Daggers Arena but I have a chance to fight him, a chance to find out why he killed my mother after she raised him, I can't just let him go without knowing why., please let me do this."
Her father looked hurt but sighed. "We'll talk about this when Qrow's back." He said to her. "Now go to your room, and you are not allowed to leave to Vale without me, Qrow, or Ozpin, is that clear?"
Yang was silent for a few seconds before she went up to her room and slammed her room so hard that it formed cracks.
She was so close and now she might never get her questions!
She looked at her scroll at the picture of her mother demanding why did she leave and why did she die?
Maybe her dads right, maybe it is better not to go after this guy.
But she can't just let him be.
Can she?
Summer came to mind, she wondered what she would say if she were here.
Raven was never there for her and somehow she still feels like she lost another mother without ever meeting her.
Kron was back at Golden Daggers watching on a screen of the fight at Slate's arena.
He never liked Dead End's champion because of his over reliance on his Semblance instead of doing anything interesting.
But his opponent, this Golden Zhu long, she was definitely something
She was fighting hand to hand and skillfully to. It was nice to see since few people use their fists for combat even if it's with a weapon.
Not to mention her Semblance is a power type and from the looks of it she gets stronger during the fight.
Still it wasn't quite enough for him to see a decent fight from her at best she'd last a few minutes if he went easy on her.
Daim smiled as he tried to
"See I think the Golden Zhu Long will make an excellent opponent for you."
"Meh" Kron replied. "She'd be fun to warm up but not an actual fight." He turned to Daim. "I've had enough get me real opponents before I decide to quit."
"Come on kid you can't mean that." He pleaded. "Look it's not that easy not many people can stand up to you."
Kron rolled his eyes, he almost regretted killing Raven. Almost now he'll never have a real fight with an opponent that can fight back.
"Fine then, use your connections to search an opponent for me."
"Done!" He yelled as he took a scroll out. "I'll make some calls and begin a search."
The Saiyan glared at him. "Remember if you can't find anyone worth a damn then I'm leaving."
"G-got it" He said hoping to find a suitable fighter.
Kron stared at the screen with the Golden Zhu Long. He had a bored expression but wondered how a fist fight would feel, he hasn't had one for too long.
Not that it mattered, it would just have the same ending.
He should be more focused on having as many powerful fighters as possible.
Adam had been packing for a bag surrounded with a couple of his soldiers.
Cinder had come back and had been more forceful in her demands.
She had this strange power that he couldn't fight back against.
Even if he could the reward was too great to ignore.
He thought of going along with it, their plan would show the world the wrath of the White Fang, that they are not to be ignored.
But her powers reminded him of something.
There not the same but he remembered a certain 'Monkey Faunus' with abilities that seemed unbeatable.
He didn't like the idea of working with humans, the White Fang are revolutionaries not thugs to be used.
Cinder felt like another powerful enemy they needed to overcome.
Perhaps he can find a way to turn them against each other.
"Commander Taurus" One of his followers watched him leave. "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to try to solve both our new and old problems." He said before going into one of their stolen Bullheads.
"Set a course for Kuchinashi" He said to the pilot.
He knows where he is, they've been doing their best to keep tabs on him even when Sienna had instructed him never to pursue Kron.
Part of him wondered if he'll see Blake with him.
Golden Daggers Arena
Kron awaited at the arena watching this man in a strange mask fighting ten men in a row to prove elegible to fight him.
As he used his red blade he couldn't help but be familiar with what he was doing.
He was absorbing each blow with his katana.
It was glowing red.
He smiled already deducing this man's identity.
"And the winner is the Bull Demon!" He shouted. "Get ready folks for our next fight, in one week our champion will be challenged.
The masked fighter glared up pointing his katana at Kron in the stands.
No doubt about it.
After three days Kron was in front of Adam in his Scourge of Anima attire.
While the other the 'Bull Demon' was dressed in different clothing.
He wore a different mask.
"Didn't recognize you at first." Kron said with his arms closed. "Adam"
Adam aimed his blade at him.
"Get ready to face retribution for what you did."
Kron thought back to that night, where he attacked after thinking he was tricked by Kali when it reality it was Raven.
"Your'e welcome to try."
"Begin!"
Adam held his blade up ina defensive stance at first.
Kron would have just one shotted this man but he figured he could try to give him a chance to fight back since he was new and not just another random fighter.
He walked forward similar to how he did with Slate much to Adam's annoyance.
Kron threw a fist aiming for his stomach.
But the Bull Faunus rose his blade and blocked the attack, though it did push him back.
He had quicker reflexes, that's good.
Kron then performed a kick aiming for his side.
But Adam blocked it again.
The Bull Faunus aimed his shotgun scabbard at him and pulled the trigger.
Kron could have tanked it but decided to sway it if onlt yo make it somewhat fun.
He then threw a fist across Adam's cheek making him stagger back.
"Just like I thought." Kron noted.
"What?" Adam asked struggling to stay on his feet after one punch.
"You've gotten stronger, but you had a better chance of beating me back then Adam." Kron explained. "The gap between us has only gotten wider."
This enraged the Bull Faunus and he ran forward aiming his scabbard to shoot him.
But again Kron tilted his head allowing the shots to miss, he then rose a leg and tried to axe kick.
Adam rose his sword blocking the kick.
While he struggled to block he looked at him and said. "I'm still standing after one hit aren't I?"
"I'm only holding back because I'm curious how much stronger you've grown."
That made Adam even angrier but he reeled in his emotions he had to build up his power.
He pushed his leg off and threw a kick.
Only for the Saiyan to block he then tossed Adam to the side.
This simple threw sent him skidding across the arena floor until he came to a stop.
He stood up and watched as he had a hand out.
Kron fired multiple energy shots towards Adam.
Which made the Bull Faunus smirk as he remembered the last tme he used his Semblance.
He rose his blade and blocked multiple energy shots. He couldn't believe his gut this brat had forgotten how he was able to use his Semblance to absorb these attacks with his blade.
Kron didn't forget he just wanted to power him up in an attempt to make him somewhat a challenge.
Once he stopped he waited to see what happened next.
The Bull Faunus sheathed his blade and ran forward, he had to finish him up close for this to work, too far and he'll avoid it.
Kron crossed his arms waiting for him.
Once he was within range, Adam rose his blade in attempt to use the energy he gathered to finish him off.
But Kron slammed a kick down on his arm.
Forcing the enrgy to hit downward and created a giant slash between the two of them.
Kron then threw a fist at Adam's face.
The Bull Faunus was struck and his back hit the floor.
He was unable to move.
"Winner is The Scourge of Anima!"
Kron walked away but first he looked at Adam and thought of how Blake was so obsessed about him and how he maimed his teacher.
He suppose he can't just leave him.
After the battle Adam was being treated for his injuries by the Arena's doctor.
Once Adam was concous Kron was waiting with his arms crossed.
"You've gotten better." Kron said. "If you were this strong back when we were kids you would have given me some trouble, I think maybe even have beaten me."
It was true he really did get stronger since the last time.
Adam squeezed his fists, he knew he couldn't win, but he couldn't see him without trying to make him pay first.
"Does this mean Sienna is after me to?" He asked thinking back to what he had done to her, all because he lost his temper.
Adam said nothing and took a breath.
It was fine, this was the best way to get his attention.
"No Sienna has given up against you and refuses to lay a hand on you, I came here to discuss something with you."
Kron rose an eyebrow. "Discuss something with me? Then why fight me?" He tilted his head. "You had to go through a bit of trouble to prove eligible to fight me."
Adam growled. "I wasn't sure if I could beat you yet, but seeing you again I had to try, especially after what you've done." He said to him.
Kron mulled it over and thought it was fair enough, he'd do the same thing in his situation.
"Fair enough." He said to him. "You managed to entertain me a bit, talk, what is it?"
Adam was pleased that he was willing to listen.
"I heard from Sienna you seek to fight powerful opponents."
And he has longed for one for a long time but didn't know where to look and had no desire to do so if it interrupted his training.
"I do" He had no idea where this was going.
"I found one that I think would be a match for you."
Kron was confused hearing that, why would Adam of all people want to help him find a worthy opponent.
"I doubt it, lots of people have claimed that." Only for him to be disappointed repeatedly.
"This one's not like anything you've seen. " Adam declared. "I don't know if you'll believe me but this person has a strange ability, not just a Semblance, but a power to use elements without the use of Dust."
That peeked his interest.
Kron thought back to Raven wielding wind, lightning, ice, and fire.
"Is this a trick?" He had to ask as he had more than enough to last a life time.
"I don't have any proof as it happened quickly." Adam explained. "But even if you don't believe me, what's the harm in you looking into it?" He asked. "I did the best I could to defeat you, why worry if what I'm saying is a lie?"
Kron mulled it over, it was obvious to him that Adam was playing him. He wasn't wrong, he's the strongest on the planet but first he had to know one thing.
"Why tell me this?"
Adam had an answer ready. "You only caused harm to our leader personally not the entire White Fang, this one seeks to use the White Fang for their own agenda and I rather avoid working with humans if possible."
Better the devil you know than the one you don't. Makes sense.
"And where can I find her?"
"Her name is Cinder Fall, and I'm not sure, somewhere in Sanus near Vale." He explained. "If you can provide me a means to contact you I can inform you whenever I find her."
Kron thought about this proposal and thought of a matchup that he was indifferent about, against this Golden Zhu Long, even if this fight ends up boring he at least has a new opponent to go after.
"Talk to Daim, he'll be able to direct you to me." He explained. "And as for Sanus, I will be heading near Vale in a couple months for a fight in a different arena, try to to have something by then so she can't escape."
Adam grinned.
"Good, I wasn't sure if you'd want this."
"I always want a good fight." He thought of Raven how hard that battle was when he was a brat and if this Cinder Fall has the same abilities could take him.
He hasn't known Adam that long, but he knows that he's not stupid t make that up, it can't be a coincidence, this has to be the same power that she has.
"One more thing, Blake, does she intend to come after me?" He asked hiding his emotions thinking of the little brat he enjoyed entertaining and made him question if he even liked his home world.
Adam remembered how Blake gave up going after him after finding out that Raven had manipulated him into losing his temper.
That didn't matter to him, he acted out, he chose attack and maimed his teacher.
So he made it clear how she 'really' feels, at least what he thinks she does.
"She has no plans for that, but she hates you and wants nothing to do with you." He said to him, angry that wasn't the case but she had to feel that way.
Kron figured that, and assumed Kali felt this way to.
"Good" He responded. "Once you clean up your wounds talk to Daim and arrange a day track this woman so I can find her."
He walked away as Adam watched with a smile.
This was it.
In the Prime Timeline Adam had no way out of his deal with Cinder. He didn't want to work for any human, eventually he accepted it because he had no way out and it would make the White Fang's voice heard.
In this timeline though he had not only a way out of his deal with Cinder but a way to solve two problems.
Either Kron and Cinder will kill each other or the winner will be weakened and easy to destroy.
Killing two birds with one stone.
Kron was in a better mood as he looked over that recording again.
He watched as the Golden Zhu Long destroyed Slate.
"Hopefully you'll make a decent warm up for my match with that Cinder girl."
Now this version of Crown may get to fight not only Cinder early, but also have a fight he missed in the Prime Timeline.
A fight against Yang Xiao Long with Maiden abilities.
Fu's Hideout
"Well that was unexpected." Fu said. "Looks like Yang might not get her chance to meet her mothers killer and that Cinder will not get to work with the White Fang at all."
"It's real strange to see a timeline without Raven in it, isn't it? Well I hope we get to to see Maiden Yang fight Kron unlike in the Prime Timeline, but for now I'm out of scrolls for it so we'll have to put a pause on that timeline."
He pulled out a tray with four scrolls like usual.
"Alright, y'know the drill, here are the timelines we got this time."
"Option A!" He yelled showing an explanation. "What if Kron's pod landed near Salem's castle?"
Next was another familiar option.
"Option B: What if Kron was female?"
Another.
"Option C: What if Kron landed near Atlas Part 2?" He asked. "Let's see how Ironwood raises Kron and if he'll turn out similar to the Prime Timeline."
He then looked at the camera and explained. "And now we get a different image."
"Option D: What if Kron had stayed with the Branwen Tribe?" He asked. "This is the timeline where Raven got what she wanted and he had stayed in the Branwen Tribe, but would it really be what she wanted? One way to find out."
"Alright so rules are the same, you got one week from tomorrow and any options that get zero votes will be swaped out for a new one, see you then!"
He waved while floating and vanished leaving us with the four scrolls to choose from.
Ok I think I got a name for this version of Kron.
We'll call him Champion Kron because he's sticking to the Golden Daggers Arena. The reason he's sticking to it is because it's a place where he can train and he has no reason to believe there are others like Raven. He believes that he has killed the strongest fighter on Remnant so he decides to stay in one place to train and fight occasionally until he is 'ready' to leave the planet to search for fighting else where.
I do like the name Slayer Kron but it's just this version of Kron hasn't killed anyone since Raven so it doesn't fit.
Unshackled Kron is good, but that actually applies more to a different version of Kron that will show at some point.
So Champion Kron fits the most.
And now Yang might not get her chance to fight Kron, Tyrian has been captured, and Adam has used Kron to attack Cinder.
So this timeline is going to be really different from the original in the next part which has been put on pause because of spoilers, hope that's ok with you guys.
NGL this timeline is the hardest to write because Raven was Kron's motivation but it is interesting to write, it makes him make different choices based on his experience.
And I do know what the next part is going to be, I just can't write it because of spoilers.
But don't worry, it'll be worth the wait for those who still like this timeline.
Now don't forget to vote you got a week from tomorrow, May 19th.
Good luck! :)
