The guys and I were out for a night on the town, having a grand time when we saw a serious hold-up in front of one of the larger Dust stores I affectionately refer to as "Dust Banks", since they're about as well-fortified as a federal bank, like the one Joker robbed in The Dark Knight, or the ones you rob in Grand Theft Auto. There were armed thugs crawling all over the place, easily holding the terrified staff and customers hostage while attempting to break into the vaults containing the dust with 2 armored cars ready to haul it away. "Huh. Looks like those guys are about to exceed their daily withdrawal limit." Damion said casually.
"Indeed. Let's go, boys, what kind of good Samaritans would we be if we didn't step in and stop this?" I asked, equally as casual, slipping on my fingerless armored gauntlets and Iron Reaver Finger Blades (Google it) with chains attached and holes in the fingertips to act as flamethrowers for me to shoot fire from, so basically I was a mix between either Sabertooth or Freddy Krueger and Spawn with flamethrowers fingers. Damion pulled out his katana with a high-powered pistol installed, so for those of you who play Soul Calibur, picture Cervantes' gun sword as a katana instead of a curvy short sword. Draco also slid on his gauntlets with Wolverine claws and sitting just behind the claws were barrels for uzis, for up-close slashing and speedy distance shooting. Lastly, as he got into range of the closest thug, who turned just in time to see his imminent death, Nicolas pulled out and swung his hybrid weapon, a War Hammer with spikes on the front, back and top of the hammer part to crush and impale and at the bottom of the weapon was a ray gun, to make it deadly at all ends.
After he took off the head of the thug, he then quickly maneuvered the weapon to aim the laser at the next thug who became alert to our attack, vaporizing him before he could get the word freeze out. The next one who was just to the side of that one (they were lined up in groups of 4 front of the armored cars, we just attacked the one on the right) was alerted and aimed his gun at Nicolas. "Hey, drop your weapo-!" He started, but was silenced by Damion dropping off the top of the armored car in between him and the 4th thug, slitting his throat, then quickly wheeling around and blasting the 4th thug in the head.
"Hey! Drop the weapon or eat lead, punks!" The apparent leader of the 4 thugs in front of the left car said as they all aimed their guns at the two. However, they were distracted when they heard a loud noise like someone landing hard on a metal roof and looked on top of their car to see Draco in a kneeling position on top of it.
"Surprise, motherfuckers!" He said, shooting the two on the ends, then jumping off and impaling the two thugs previously in the middle of their group. "Miss me?" He asked.
"Hurry it up next time, you cheeky bastard." Damion said as they did that weird type of handshake where you shake hands, then snap.
"Yeah, a little too close for comfort." Nicolas agreed.
"We all know you two weren't in any danger." He replied nonchalantly.
"Now you are, punks! Drop dead!" The leader in a group of 10 thugs that just came out said. They all unloaded on my friends, but suddenly, chains appeared in front of them, moving as if they were alive, knocking the bullets out of the air and when their guns were empty, a chain wrapped around each of the thugs' legs, lifting them up into the air upside-down so they could look me in the face as I stood on top of the first armored car.
"Care to explain why you were shooting at my friends?" I asked in my best impersonation of Freddy from the reboot movie where he was played by Anthony Hopkins (that was a scary-ass voice, he filled the part perfect).
"Holy shit!" They all shouted, reaching to their sides and grabbing pistols and aiming at me, but I pointed my fingers outward and shot fire as hot as the sun at them, roasting them alive in easily a single second.
"I love doing that shit, that is creepy, awesome and badass as hell at the same time." I said, jumping down as the chains re-wrapped around my arms, then I walked up to the doors and kicked them open. "Party crashers!" I announced getting the rest of the thug's attention.
"Who are these punks? Waste 'em!" They all said, aiming at us.
"Zenshin!" I told the guys to advance in Japanese, covering them with my chains and picking off another group of 10 in the process to drag off and fight up-close and personal.
"Time for swift death, but painful execution!" Damion said as he knocked away his own group of 10 with the back of his blade.
The whole time he was advancing, Draco was repeating "mine, mine, mine!" Faster and faster until he dove at his group of 10. "EVERYTHING DIES!" He shouted, getting ready to ram them with his shoulder, but teleporting to his own little area for his grand showdown, then ramming into them with his shoulder and causing them to smash into the wall that was now behind them. "You better not be done yet." He said.
"Time for the bodies to hit the floor!" Nicolas said as he knocked away his own 10 and started singing "Let The Bodies Hit The Floor" by Drowning Pool.
Background music: "Let The Bodies Hit The Floor" by Drowning Pool
The thugs surrounded Nicolas, but he simply smirked. "Hammer time!" He said, lunging at the 3 in front of him, catching them and decapitating them with one swing, then easily bringing the hammer behind him and blocked the attack of one of the thugs behind him, then moved the weapon around and blasted the thug's head off without even looking, maneuvering back into both hands, then pushing it forward to catch the guy rushing in at him with the spike on top of the weapon, piercing the dude's throat for an instant kill, then firing off two more lasers from the bottom to kill the two on his left (they surrounded him in a bit of a rounded square: 3 guys in front of him, 3 guys behind him and 2 to the left and right).
"Holy shit, this guy's a beast!" One of the thugs behind him said to the other, terrified.
Nicolas smirked at this. "You don't know the half of it." He said, making bone hands come from portals on the walls to push the two together, allowing him to easily smash both of them. The last thug looked at him, pressed up against a wall in fear, but when Nicolas turned to him, he held out his sword type weapon (the same type of things the guys were using against Ruby... Or Yang in the "Yellow" Trailer) at him, but then screamed and ran past him, trying to escape. "Hey, don't forget your parting gift!" He said, aiming the hybrid weapon and vaporizing the retreating thug with a well-aimed laser blast.
With Draco, the thugs had surrounded him too, in the same way, but they were taking a little more caution, trying to analyze the situation. He was in the middle, not moving as well, but that's because he was waiting for them to make a move... For about 5 minutes, before he got bored. "Are you guys gonna actually do anything?" He asked annoyed.
This apparently caused them to snap. "Rush him!" One of them said and all but one agreed and rushed at him from each angle (front, front left, front right, left, right, back, back left, back right), but he smirked at this, got on his toes and spun in one perfect circle, cutting their heads clean off. Just like with Nicolas, the last one was pressed up against the wall to Draco's right in fear, but when Draco looked at him, he pointed his sword at him and pulled out his pistol.
"Don't come any closer, kid! I warn ya!" He said, trembling.
Draco smirked at this. "Okay." He said, raising his arm and shooting him in the face with all 3 uzis on the hand at once, killing him insantly.
Damion was surrounded in the same way, just waiting for one of them to make a move, arms down at his sides. One to his right screamed and ran in, but with a lightning-fast motion, he brought his arm forward, up, around/back and easily sliced the attackers head off, before bringing the weapon back behind him, blocking a strike that would've otherwise cut through his shoulder, then pulling the trigger and blasting the attacking thug in the head. "Next?" He asked. One to his left ran in at him, but he moved his arm out to the side opposite of the attacker, then brought it towards him quickly and impaled him as he was wide open, going for an overhead strike to chop downward on the vampire, who then spun around and hit him with a palm strike in the chest, sending him forward into the other thug on his right, sending them both into a wall, crushing the one who hadn't attacked behind the one that did. "That's 4. 6 to go." He said. He then spun around and sliced the last two behind him in half at the hip as they risked a few steps forward, then he brought the weapon behind him again and shot two of the ones in front of him in the head, leaving the one in the center alive. The last one on his left ran in and went for a wide swing with his right arm to cut Damion in half similar to how he cut the two thugs in half, but with a smaller, one-handed weapon. This failed as he left himself wide open and Damion easily brought his sword up and through his jaw, then through his brain and out the top of his head, shooting the already dead thug in the heard a couple of times for good measure. He then slid the thug off the blade and before the last one could do anything, he threw the sword straight through his head, tacking him to the wall behind him. "Whether I'm throwing something or aiming a gun, I never miss." He smirked, proud of himself.
Finally, with me! I was also surrounded, but I simply rushed in, slicing the 3 in front of me up into sushi rolls, then turned to the guys on my left and struck out my right arm like Scorpion when throwing his spear, causing the chains on my ring and middle finger to lash out and smash the two thugs in the head, caving their skulls in, then I held out my left hand and shot streams of fire at the two on my left, roasting them alive, then turned my attention to the last 3. "Just give up and I'll make it painless." I said, still in the Freddy tone. However, this fell upon deaf ears, as the two on the sides ran in at me, but I wrapped the still free chains on my fingers around their necks and snapped their necks, then disappearing, reappearing behind the last terrified thug and grabbing the top of his head with my right hand and tilting his head back, ready to stab him with the eyes with my trigger fingers on my left hand (controller triggers, you pervs! You know like L1 and L2. Of course, they are triggers for other things, but that's besides the point).
"Oh, god..." He said in fear.
"No... Just me..." I said, again in the scary-ass Krueger voice, stabbing him in the eyes and killing him.
"Not a bad night, eh, guys?" Draco asked as we reconvened back in the bank.
"Yeah, we went out, partied and kicked a bunch of punk's asses. Great night." Damion agreed.
"We need to do this more often." I said, nodding.
"Hell yeah- hey, are those guys getting away?" Nicolas asked, pointing to two thugs who had heard the commotion from upstairs and just made a break for the door with a couple of brief cases full of Dust crystals, hopping into one of the armored vehicles and peeling away as fast as possible.
"Yes, they are. Nicolas, if you would please?" I asked, looking at him.
He quickly jumped outside and aimed the laser part of his hammer at the retreating van. "I'MMA FIRIN' MAH LAZOR!" He said, firing a powerful laser at the van, hitting the dust they managed to collect presumably from a previous steal, lighting the vehicle like the 4th of July and making it look like just about any car Bruce Willis gets his hands on in the Die Hard series.
"Nice. Well, guys, I say we deserve to reward ourselves with a kick-ass meal at Texas Roadhouse." I said, to which they nodded.
"Hell yeah! Perfect way to wrap up dude's night out!" Draco said.
"Very impressive, boys." A voice behind us said. We looked and saw a face any of us could recognize. Not out of experience, but out of the fame of the person: Professor Ozpin, the Headmaster of Signal Academy.
"Professor Ozpin? What might you be doing here?" Damion asked.
"I myself was out for a night on the town. Suddenly, I heard a large commotion and I was all of this. A bit brutal and quite destructive, but highly impressive. Signal could use some students like you. What do you think?" He asked.
We excel at being brutal and highly destructive!
[By definition: Badass.]
"Hm... Train to be Huntsman: protectors of the human race..." I said.
"Indeed." He replied.
"Well, that's basically what I do anyway, might as well make a career out of it." I said.
"Yeah. Not to mention the fame, babes and money!" Draco said with dollar signs in his eyes.
"I'm in! Any chance I get to be a badass, I take." Nicolas said.
"Then, it's a majority vote. All of us will attend. Besides, mine and his little sisters will be attending this year." Damion said pointing to me.
I turned to the 4th wall at this moment. "Yeah, spoiler alert: Serena's been annoying me to no end about making a fanfic where her and Selene go through the RWBY stuff, so that's gonna be coming up in the future as well." I said.
"Excellent. It's been an eventful evening. First the young Ruby Rose, now you. You should all get some rest then if you want to catch the airship in time." Ozpin said, to which we nodded.
The next day, on the airship...
"Nice, so you guys are going to Beacon, too?!" Serena asked excitedly.
"Yep. A little bit of murdering and we wing up going to one of the most pristine academies out there." I say, speaking over Nicolas, who was singing "I'm on a blimp", a Yu-Gi-Oh abridged parody of "I'm on a boat".
"Well, looks like the gang's all here in that case." Selene said.
We heard a small commotion and saw a blonde girl giving a smaller blackish/red haired girl, who was apparently her younger sister, an apparent bear hug, saying how excited she was her sister would go to beacon with her. "Huh. I guess us getting in isn't that impressive after all." Serena said.
"Yeah, that girl looks like she's 15 at most." Selene agreed.
"She must've done something Ozpin liked." I said shrugging.
Maybe she's that Ruby Rose girl he mentioned.
{Anything's possible.]
"Well, just means kid's are getting better at younger ages." Damion said.
"Yeah, that's what we need! Better warriors who start out at younger ages." Draco agreed.
"Huh. Then I'm gonna try and go for a record here. When I have a kid, mark my words, they'll be in this academy by the time they're 10. MARK MY WORDS!" I said long and dramatically at the end.
"Ugh..." Everyone sighed all at once. Then we noticed something.
"Hey, maybe it's just me, but does it seem like all the people not important to the scene are a bunch of silhouettes?" Serena asked.
"Indeed." I said, nodding.
We were watching the news on the TV windows, which we all were equally annoyed with, until the screen cut to a woman we knew as Glynda Goodwitch, Ozpin's right-hand ma-... Woman and I THINK has an important role at Beacon. "Finally! This is better than watching the news." Serena said.
"I don't know, I've never heard of her being the nicest person." I said.
"Hello and welcome to Beacon." She said.
"Who's that?" The blonde from a few minutes ago asked.
"My name is Glynda Goodwitch." She continued.
"Oh." The blonde said.
"You are among the privileged few who have received the honor of being able to attend this prestigious academy. Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace. And it's your duty as future huntsman and huntresses to uphold it." She continued.
"Wow, no pressure there." Serena said sarcastically.
"I think that was the point." Selene said.
"You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task. And now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world." She finished. Then the screen turned back into windows and we got a grand view.
"Whoa! Check out the view!" Serena said in awe.
"Yeah, this would be a great height to push Tsukune from." I said in agreement.
Haha! That was perfect!
[I don't think his plot armor would protect him from that.]
"This is one of those things where you can truly appreciate life and all the beautiful things you can get out of it." Selene said.
"Still, though, there's going to inevitably be one person that is going to bring the lame into this story." I said.
"Every anime has one." Damion agreed.
Suddenly, we heard sounds of nausea and looked to see a skinny, unimpressive-looking blonde guy holding his stomach and mouth, puking a bit here and there as he went off presumably to the bathroom. "And unfortunately, I think we just found him." Selene said, deadpanning.
"Right? We were just having this awe-inspiring moment and vomit boy there ruins it." I said.
"It was a nice moment while it lasted." I heard the younger girl say to her sister, who I guess were talking about the same thing.
"I wonder who we're gonna meet?" The blonde sister asked.
"I bet she'd like to meet us." Draco said slyly.
"Yeah, back off, I call dibs on that one." Damion said, to which Selene rolled her eyes, but giggled.
"I just hope they're better than vomit boy." The younger girl said to her sister, but then looked down and was horrified and disgusted by... "Oh, Yang, gross! You have puke on your shoe!" She said. This caused her sister to freak out, mumbling "gross" twice per second, shaking off her foot, to which we laughed and her sister ran away screaming for her to get away.
"Well, the animation is a little meh, but at least it has a good mix of comedy and action so far." I said.
[Indeed. And we all know it can only get better as the series progresses.]
As long as none of us get puked on, I'm happy!
