So readers, here it is, the long awaited rewrite of RWBY: Rise of the Iron Wolves. After a very VERY long planning process, and a long waiting period for my co author Godzillakaiju, me, him and another friend of mine have finally finished it. And as a fair warning to those of you easily triggered here's a warning in advance. Certain plot points from the original series will be drastically different, and some large events (ie. Character deaths) may possibly be subverted, and various ships will appear in this story. As well as many characters changing because of the events of the story (this is a wonderful thing called "character development") You have been warned. Additionally all critiques and criticism is welcome, but it must be constructive, no author fires, got it? Lastly if you have any suggestions please leave them in the review section or PM me and my other co author Thermalsnipern. Thank you for your consideration, and there will be a no tolerance policy of herasment, any found in reviews or PMs will be met with swift action via report. That is all, thank you and happy reading. - Dragon Emperor0

Prologue: Wolf

Kingdom of Vale, Schnee Dust port

At a dust port for the very well known Schnee dust company in the middle of the night, many men and women in strange masks and dark clothes were loading crates of Dust onto an airship, crates that were not theirs.

As one was carrying a rather large and heavy one, he tripped and crystals went all over the ground, a red one even rolled into someone's boot, as the person picked up the crystal the person who dropped it saw exactly what they looked like.

Standing there was was a boy who was about 5'7", and seemed to be about sixteen or seventeen years of age, He had grey hair, golden eyes, and the most striking feature on him was his grey wolf ears coming from his hair as well as a wolf tail. He was in some sort of golden armor suit similar to compressed body armor, which also has a chest plate with an emblem showing two wolf heads facing an oak tree, a pair of black pants and a pair of gauntlets with fur ends and clawed fingers as well as three stones going down them (one an amber color, another electric blue, and the last one a lavender purple), his boots were shaped in a similar fashion with fur in the cuffs, finally he had on a cape that looked like an actual wolf's pelt, the hood was the wolf's actual head.

On his back is an ancient viking styled broadsword, it had a brass colored cross guard, a brown handle, a black wolf head shaped pomle, and the blade glowed with a lava orange color at the base of the blade. He also has a hand cannon on his belt, this gun is black with gold on the top of the barrel, a gold ammunition chamber with the Iron Wolf Order insignia embossed on it in silver, the rest of the gun was black with a gold hammer (which was custom made to be able to be fanned) and lastly had a black handle with a small silver medallion with a wolf head on it on the bottom corner and has a small hook-like claw or fang on the butt of the handle.

"Oi, Don't you White Fang dipshits know that unrefined dust is highly volatile? Handle with care huh?" He sneered down at person on the ground, putting the crystal in his pocket.

The man got up as the rest noticed what happened and pointed their weapons at him.

The boy smirked, licking his elongated canine teeth in excitement. "So you boys wanna dance, eh? Alright, I'm game." He then drew his sword, while cracking his neck from side to side. "Let's do it."

(Cue Hunter by Riaya)

The boy pointed his sword at the White Fang soldiers, gripping the handle as the blade suddenly turns ablaze. The flames dance in rhythmic fashion, illuminating the boys face in the dark of the night, making him look ominous as his gold eyes narrow and his lips curled in a sneer. This causes many of the soldiers to back up in shock and fear.

"Say hello to the Dire Wolf's Fang, my personal tool of death." He grinned, which only earned him silence.

The Wolf Faunus took this opportunity to slash his sword repeatedly causing waves of flaming energy to come from the edge, exploding on impact, sending several of the white jacket wearing Faunus flying in all directions. As he sheathed his sword more come at him from behind, whipping around he throws a smoke grenade at them allowing him to escape, then he quickly appears behind them as he twirls his hand cannon and fans the hammer several times as dust rounds explode in the targets' backs.

As the smoke cleared more soldiers came towards him, surrounding him. "So, you think you got the drop on me, do ya punks?" He said. Which earned him various grins and snickers. "Well think again!" The boy grinned as the orange stone on his right hand gauntlet glowed and his hand went ablaze, clapping his other hand still holding his gun together, it caused a flash of light and the gun was now on fire, glowing gold like the sun.

The soldiers all recovered from the flash and charged, only to be reduced to ash as the Wolf Faunus rapid fired from the hip as he sent explosive round after explosive round, turning in a circle and painting the ground and every crate nearby crates in the now incinerated Faunus's ashes.

As the Wolf boy holstered his literally smoking gun, more White Fang goons were charging at him, getting into position the blue stone on his gauntlets glowed as it crackled with lightning as he stretched his arms out over his head and a two headed spear of lightning appeared, causing a shockwave of electric power that knocked out the lights.

Blue flashes and electric currents could be seen and heard as he slashed, stabbed, redirected fire, and even shishkebabed a few soldiers as the electricity caused their skeletons to be visible. As the lights came on, the boy made the spear disappear and saw the remaining soldiers trying to run away.

"Oh now you don't you Bastiches." He said as the purple stone now glowed and he thrusted his left hand into the air and a purple energy bow appeared in his hands, drawing back the quiver, he aimed at a crate right next to where they were running and let the arrow fly, the arrow exploded on impact and became a ball of gravity, as tethering tendrils grabbed the soldiers and held them in place.

The bow disappeared as the boy walked over to them and pulled out his gun, reloading it. "Alright Wolf's Pack, time to finish this." He said, stroking the gun's barrel. He then proceeded to fire bullet after bullet into each of the goons' heads, killing them instantly, causing the Captain (who was bound to their pain) immense agony.

As he walked up to the captain, who was a Crow Faunus, he pointed the gun right at his head.

"Please, please I beg of you, have mercy." The man groveled. "You're from the Iron Wolf Order aren't you? Surely even they value mercy to their enemies."

The boy's pupils narrowed as he growled, gritting his teeth, and wolf ears pointed back,as he tightened his grip on his gun. But relaxes suddenly, as his mouth turns into a smirk. "Sorry. All outta mercy today." He said as he pulled the trigger.

BANG!

(End Hunter by Riaya.)

Feathers fly everywhere as the captain fell dead, his blood soaking the ground. The boy holsters his gun again as he pulls out a piece of paper and a pen and writes something down before nailing it to one of the crates, the paper has the same seal as his gear on it.

He walks off, leaving the paper there as his cloak moving in the wind. The letter also wisps in the wind, as it reads:

"Schnee dust company, I took it upon myself to personally stop a robbery of one of your Vale dust ports that was being committed by the White Fang. As such, I hope you will excuse any accidental collateral damage that may have occurred during the struggle, if anything is to be replaced, please send a letter of the amount of jewels needed for repair to the Iron Wolf Order and the Iron Temple. Thanks for your business."

-Wolfgang Amadeus Prowl, future heir to the Iron Wolf Order.
