The Misadventures of Anton Sonreef

Chapter 1: The Fun Begins

Remnant, a world that has managed peace since the discovery of dust. Since then mankind has fought back the Grimm and has been able to build a civilization of four kingdoms. But our focus is a boy, one boy who we find on a cliffside with a map of Remnant. He wore black pants, a black shirt with a tan vest over it, over his vest was a green long coat with a hood, and he wore black shoes with red strips on his feet and gloves with a white wolf head symbol on his hands. He had what looked like a sword strapped to his back. His puffy dark strawberry blonde hair flowed in the wind as his golden eyes moved from his map to the red forest below him. He stroked his ginger beard as he put his map away and sat on the edge of the cliff. He looked up and noticed the amount and color of the clouds in the sky.

"Hmm a storm is coming, I wonder how bad the weather is in Vale?" He said in a rather mild tone to himself. "Guess there is only one way to find out."

All of a sudden he heard howls coming from behind him. He quickly looked at the sunset and noticed it was getting late.

"Damn gotta move quickly, I've only got … a few miles I hope." The boy said as he jump off the cliff. As he free fell he dodged branches and birds. He looked at how close he was to the ground then looked to his left and right. Worried with how close he already was to the ground he whistled and a small Nevermore came from his left. The boy braced for landing and landed on the Nevermore's back.

"Yeah that a girl." He drew his sword that looked like a Katana and pointed it forward.

"Onwards and upwards to Vale." The boy yelled receiving a caw from the small Nevermore and they flew into the sunset.

Hours later the boy could see the walls of Vale closing in. From the wall two of the guards noticed the Nevermore and the boy riding it.

"Uh should we sound the alarm?" one asked pointing at a red lever.

"Uh I don't know … I don't think so." The other said.

"You guys talking about me?" The boy said surprising the guards.

"Uh … freeze?" Guard number one said as he and two pulled out their pistols.

"Relax I'm looking for entry not trouble." The boy said as he pulled out a stack of papers out of his coat and held them out to the guards. The guards looked skeptical but one of them took his papers and looked at them.

"Well everything actually looks in order but one thing." He said. The boy looked worried.

"And what would that be?" the boy asked. The guard pointed at the Nevermore the boy was on.

"That young Nevermore, I don't see anything about a pet Grimm in these papers."

"Oh you mean my girl storm, yeah I figure she'd be a problem considering that I found her on my way here. Did you know when a Nevermore first hatches they become loyal to the first thing they see?" The guards just stared at the boy and his bird. They looked at each other then back at the boy.

"Okay kid, I never heard of a pet Grimm, nor have I heard any law against it so I'll give you a freebie but if your Nevermore is found causing trouble nothing will stop anyone from killing it on the spot you hear?" The boy look worried but eventually agreed to the guard's terms.

"Alright sense you're already flying, feel free to enter and here is a map of Vale to help you find lodging." The guard said handing the boy the map.

"Alright thanks, see you guys around." With that the boy and Nevermore flew by the guards with a burst of speed.

"Alright let's see where we can spend the night." The boy said as he pulled out the map the guards gave him. "Hmm." He looked at the docks and saw there was a motel with small prices. "That looks promising, let's go girl." They got to the motel and the boy walked in with Storm behind him. The Nevermore squawked and nudged the boy's arm. "Oh almost forgot." He reach into one of his vest's pockets and pulled a treat for Storm. The lobby they walked into was green with three red waiting couches and a brown desk with a golden bell. The boy rang the bell once and the manager came to the desk. The manager looked like a beefed Russian man ready for a fight. He wore a fur coat with a suit and tie under, a bowler hat on his head and green sunglasses covered his eyes. On the wall behind him was a giant minigun.

"Hello comrade, would you like to purchase a room?" the beefed man said in a Russian accent.

"Uh yes how much Lien for a monthly rent?" The boy asked as he reached for his money bag in his vest's back pocket.

"How much can you pay for an office room?"

"Is that all you have left?" The Russian just stared at the boy.

"Right um maybe I can pay for a month or so but that's all I can do with running low and have enough for food and ammo." The boy answered.

"Hmm then how about deal? I give you, office room for free, if you do me some special jobs."

"Uh what kind of special jobs?" The Russian took the boy to his office. In there was what looked like an investigation board and a bunch of unused bullets and newspapers everywhere.

"I was looking into White Fang activities but sadly am to old to do something, but I look at you and your sword and I see the perfect man for the job. Your mission, should you accept would be to follow my footsteps and stop these suspicious acts. Do you accept?" The Russian said reaching his hand out to the boy.

"And by doing these I get to live here for free?" the boy asked.

"Truth."

"Well then I'm in." the shook in agreement to terms.

"My name is Silvaki, and you?" The Russian (Silvaki) asked.

"Anton, Anton Sonreef, my Nevermore is Storm and my weapon is Vibre." Anton greeted.

"You have pet Nevermore?"

"Yeah I've been told she might be a problem."

"Just pick up after her and we are fine."

"Sweet." Anton gave Silvaki a thumbs up.

"Now for your first job, you are to investigate the nearby docks for any White Fang activity." Silvaki ordered.

"Question, how do I know I found them?" Anton asked.

"Look for Faunus in Wolf like armor."

"Right got it." With that Anton hopped on Storm and they flew out the door. Once at the docks Anton and Storm landed on a nearby rooftop and waited. Anton looked around while Storm just sat next to him, Anton spotted two more people on a nearby rooftop just then and he pulled out a pair of night vision binoculars. One was a girl in black and white clothing and had black cat ears on her head in her black hair. The other was a boy and he wore a white t-shirt and jeans, he held two bananas and had a monkey tail. "Well the match the Faunus category but I'm not seeing wolf armor." Anton said to himself. Then all of a sudden three airships flew in and one of them landed in the docking station in front of Anton. The hanger door opened and a group of Faunus in wolf armor came out and started opening crates of dust. "Well there's my cue." Anton hopped down from where he was but was stopped when Storm squawked. "No girl you have to stay there, I don't want you to get hurt." He motioned her to sit and Storm did so and waited. Anton ran behind a crate and hid, then moved to another. Before he continued he put his hood on and drew his Katana. He moved behind another crate and could hear an explosion. He peeked from where he was and he could see that a fight had started between the girl and some guy in a white coat, bowler hat and black slacks. He took this opportunity to take out some of the White Fang that was there. Then they all finally noticed he was there and most of The White Fang surrounded him. Anton pressed a button on his Katana and it started vibrating. The White Fang aimed their guns at him and opened fire. Anton just started swinging using his sword to bloke every bullet that tried to hit him. Then he was joined by the boy with a monkey tail, who brought out his staff and started attacking The White Fang with Anton.

"Fancy meeting a friendly face here, so why are you here?" The monkey boy asked still fighting and blocked an attack for Anton.

"I'm here investigating The White Fang, Turns out my employer was right about the docks. You?" Anton blocked an attack for the monkey boy and flipped over him taking down another solider.

"Same only I don't have an employer, just a girl with a hunch." The White Fang started using swords against the two teens. Anton's sword collided with one of The White Fang's, due to the vibration Anton's Katana cut right through his opponent's sword and knocked him out.

"You seem to fight well, you got a name or should I call you the hooded man?" The monkey boy asked as he took out another White Fang.

"Same to you. Just call me Anton, what about you?"

"Name's Sun." The two teens soon took out the rest of The White Fang and ran to the girl and the bowler hat man with a cane when they heard another voice.

"Hey you!" Anton and Sun looked to the where the voice came from and saw a girl in red and black clothing with a silver rose on her belt as she pulled out a giant red and black scythe, she had silver eyes and black hair with red highlights. Then another girl in a grey and green dress with green eyes and ginger hair followed.

"Oh Hello red isn't it past your bedtime?" The guy in a bowler hat asked.

"Ruby who are these people are they your friends?" The girl in a grey and green dress asked the girl in red and black clothing.

"Penny get back." Just then the guy in a bowler hat aimed his cane at them and fire an explosive at them. Anton took this opportunity to sneak by and get into the aircraft that landed. Anton looked for anything that would lead him and Silvaki to find out what their plans. He found a cabinet in the hanger and went to look inside, but sadly it was locked. Outside he could hear the fight getting worse, but he focused on unlocking the cabinet with some lockpicks he had in his vest. He got it open but by the time he could get a good look the airship started to take off and the guy with a bowler hat had entered the hanger.

"What the, what are you doing in here?" He asked. Anton just stayed quiet as he reached into the cabinet and grabbed everything he could then jumped out of the hanger. When Anton landed he could see the girl with a grey and green dress control a bunch of floating swords that fired a giant laser at the airship as it and the two others left. Moments later Sun joined the girls and Anton was about to leave when Sun stopped him.

"Hey dude, come on don't be a stranger. Come over and say hi." Sun asked. Anton looked at Sun then at the three girls, He noticed the one in a green and grey dress walk away slowly.

"If it's all the same I'd rather not, but if you insist then what's to stop me?" Anton replied removing his hood. Sun and Anton walked over to the now two girls.

"Well that could have gone better." The black haired girl said as she sat on a crate.

"Well it'll only get worse if we can't convince Weiss to have a different opinion." Said the girl with a scythe, she folded it into a more portable state and attached to her back.

"Hey Blake look who decided to help us with The White Fang." Sun said as him and Anton finally reached them. The two girls looked in their direction and put on faces of curiosity.

"Girls this is Anton, I literally just met him and it turns out he's hunting the White Fang." The girl with long black hair just looked at Anton.

"Why?" She asked.

"I was hired to." Anton answered.

"What for?"

"Mostly Intel or to stop a possible robbery." They just stared at each other with blank faces.

"See maybe he can help us if that Torchwick guy's planning something." Sun added. Again they stared but this time the girl with a scythe was also staring at Anton, well not at him more like his Katana.

"Anyways, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Anton Sonreef, explorer and traveler to the world of Remnant." Anton said reaching out his hand. The girl with long black hair looked at his hand then at Anton.

"Blake, Huntress in training." Blake said as she took Anton's hand and shook.

"And who are little red riding hood?" Anton asked the girl with a scythe, kicking her from her daze at his weapon.

"Oh my name is Ruby, also a huntress in training." Ruby replied as she also shook hands with Anton. Anton heard something beep and looked at his wristwatch, it was nine o'clock.

"Cool well I have to get going my employer is going to want the Intel that I got, see you later." Anton said as he ran and whistled. Then everyone heard a caw come from above as they saw Anton jump onto a small Nevermore and flew off. Anton made it back to the motel and checked in with Silvaki.

"So I see you were victorious?" Silvaki asked.

"Yes I was I managed to get this journal of some sort and some cash from the airship I had to get on." Anton explained handing over what he looted from the airship. Silvaki looked at the journal and decided to read some of it.

"Hmm." He pondered.

"Well anything useful?" Anton asked.

"Yes very, now I show you to office room." Silvaki said as he got up and walked Anton to his room. It was a nice room, though it looked old it was the best Anton could get. It had a queen sized bed on the far wall, a desk with a few drawers in next to the window and one bright lamp next to the bed.

"I hope it is comfortable, no?" Silvaki asked. Anton looked around and thought for a moment.

"Yeah, with a few adjustments here and there and this place will feel just like home." Anton said with a smile while Storm screeched.

"Then make yourself at home, I have a feeling you will be here for long time." Silvaki said and left the room. Anton walked to the bed then jumped onto it and decided to rest for the night.

"Man what a day, well onwards and upwards Anton, I've got a feeling this is the right place for you *Yawn* besides at least I don't have to go to school." Anton said to himself as he closed his eyes and went to sleep while Storm just flew onto Anton and fell asleep on top of him.
