(Y/n) and Dante stood in front of a gravestone for the two they used to call their parents.
"Sup, Pops. Hey, Mom. Me and (Y/n) are here, and fortunately, we're alive and well. I know you would get mad sometimes when we were hurt, Mom."
"She would get mad each time we would get hurt." (Y/n) says.
"Right, scary times. Either way, we managed to find a good place to stay for now. There's good people around it so neither of you have to worry. I mean, (Y/n) might have some admirers." Dante says.
"I do not." (Y/n) says sternly.
"Ahh, seems like you'll be a loner even though so many people think you're cool. Sometimes I don't get why you're the more liked one if you're so mean to them." Dante says.
"Could we move on?" (Y/n) asks as Dante nods.
"Oh! You would never guess what we did a couple days back. This crazy guy, that actually turned out to be our friend Lady's father, tried to take the power of this Demon Warrior Sparda. We also found out we had the blood of the guy, and I can't really guess who's side of the family it came from. You two were both equally scary." Dante says as (Y/n) nods.
"I will say something now.*Dante nods* I made some mistakes, Father, Mother. I let my hunger for power take my mind over again. I have tried to fix myself, but it seems that just won't ever be... I will find a way to control it. I promise." (Y/n) says as he grabs the handle to Force Edge.
(Y/n) stabs the sword into the ground as he begins to leave.
"Huh? Hey, I thought you would have wanted to keep the sword." Dante says to (Y/n).
"Right now, I do not deserve it so much. I will gain it back. Whether it takes days or years, I may not know. But for right now, it will stay with the people that were closest to the lineage. Maybe when I need it the most I will come back." (Y/n) says as he unsheathes Yamato.
"Disappointing, but I get it. Now, let's get back to the colosseum. We have a match to see." Dante says.
(Y/n) slices the air vertically and horizontally, creating a portal in front of him as the two brothers entered it.
--Amity Colosseum--
The crowd's cheers were louder than ever as Team RWBY faced against Team ABRN from Haven Academy.
Biome- Ice & Lava:
As the match started, Team RWBY and Team ABRN fight it out while as everyone got into their seats. High above the arena are the two teachers, Port and Oobleck, sitting at a sportscaster desk as they commentate the tournament.
"Hello! It seems that we have another astonishing bout ahead of us! Wouldn't you agree, Professor?" Prof. Port asks Oobleck.
"Doctor. And yes Peter, I think it's safe to say this match may be one of the closest we've seen of the four-on-four round of the tournament!" Dr. Oobleck says.
"For those of you just now joining us, welcome to the Vytal Festival Tournament, broadcasted live from Amity Colosseum!" Prof. Port says as the colosseum is shown in its full glory.
"If this is your first time watching, allow us to breakdown the rules." Prof. Port says.
"The tournament is divided into three distinctive rounds; teams, doubles, and singles. Age and school year are irrelevant! In this tournament, your only attribute being tested... is skill." Dr. Oobleck explains as he pushes his glasses back.
"Correct! The winners of this battle will elect two of their members to represent them in the doubles round, followed by the winners of that round choosing one member to advance once again. The remaining combatants will then fight their way through the final bracket in the hope of achieving victory for their kingdom!" Prof. Port explains.
"And yes, Peter, these certainly are some spectacular spectacles on which to spectate on! I don't think anyone tuning in around the world is going to disagree with me on that!" Dr. Oobleck says.
"Ahh, and why would they? Now, let's get back to the match between Team RWBY of Beacon, and Team ABRN of Haven." Prof. Port says.
Background Info:
----------Bolin Hori----Reese Chloris----Arslan Altan----Nadir Shikoe---------
----------Member---------Member---------Team Leader------Member------------
Reese rides her hoverboard across the ice as she jumps off it, and kicks it at Blake. Blake blocks it, but Reese punched it back at Blake as she ran forwards. Blake parried the board back as she went to slash Reese with her Katana and Cleaver, but Reese had already grabbed her board to block them. Reese blocked a kick from Blake as she then flipped the board around herself, and she flipped back to ride the hoverboard towards a smirking Blake.
As Reese got closer, Blake jumped back as a frozen shadow clone is left in front. Reese collided with the clone as Blake too the chance and split Reese's hoverboard in half. Reese grabs the pieces as they transform into bayonet-bladed revolvers, and she shoots at Blake. Reese slips on the ice when she lands though, falling right on her tailbone. Blake winces at seeing that.
Meanwhile, in the lava area, Yang lands right in front of Arslan as she backs away. Yang lunges forwards as she throws two punches that connect. Arslan tries to sweep Yang's legs, but she backs away as the two begin to hammer at each other with punches and elbows. The clash ends by the two smashing their fists against the other, creating a large shockwave.
Yang and Arslan get pushed back, but they go back at each other as Yang tries to connect a downward heel kick. Arslan dodges as she throws a rope dart at Yang's foot, she pulls Yang towards her and then side kicks her in the stomach. Yang is launched into the ice area as she tries to get up, but as she tries to stabilize herself, Arslan punches her back down.
From one side, Nadir tries to aim his rifle at Yang but he is shot by a ice Dust round. His legs are trapped as the one who shot the round was none other than Ruby.
"Got your back!" Ruby says as she looks up from the scope on her sniper.
"But who's got yours?"
Ruby looks up to see Bolin spinning around his staff, but suddenly a black glyph appears to his left. And Weiss comes in as she kicks Bolin through the glyph, sending him to the lava area. Ruby stands up as she looks at Weiss.
"My BFF!" Ruby says.
"*Deadpan* No." Weiss says as she runs off.
"*She pumps her fist as she whispers* Yes." Ruby says.
Bolin gets up with the help of his staff as he sees a large white glyph appear in front of him. Suddenly, Weiss slashed Bolin back as she jumped into the air and tried to stab him downwards, but he was spinning his staff so he blocked it. Ruby jumped on the glyph, and she then jumped into the air as she spun down. Bolin blocked her scythe as Ruby blasts herself back to Weiss.
Bolin ran at Weiss as she tried to send ice spikes at him, but he rolled out of the way. Ruby tried to slash him, but he jumped over the attack.
"What?!" Ruby screamed.
Bolin cut off a red Dust crystal, and threw it over to Reese as she connected it with her hoverboard. She winks at Blake as she rides over to Nadir, unfreezing the ice on his feet and she then rode over to Blake. Reese slams her board into Blake's weapons, but she pushed Blake through an ice spike behind her. Reese then tried to slam her board down onto Blake, but she dodged it as Reese spins around while releasing a fire arc that Blake managed to dodge with her clone.
Blake turned around and transformed her katana into the kusarigama, that she then threw over to an iceberg. Blake goes behind the iceberg as Reese floats over to the behind, seeing that Blake is standing while facing away from her. Reese grins as she delivers a flaming spiral right at Blake, only for it to be a shadow clone that lead to the ribbon of Blake's weapon. Blake pulls tightly on the ribbon as she then kicks Reese out of the battle arena.
"Ooh, a double whammy! Reese Chloris is eliminated by ringout and Aura level!" Prof. Port says as the display shows her aura drop below the bar.
"Oh, she really should've worn a helmet." Dr. Oobleck says.
Back in the ice area, Arslan uses her rope dart to avoid the incoming Yang as Nadir aimed his rifle at Weiss. Weiss summoned a black glyph that launches Bolin into him, and while the two were on the ground, Weiss summoned a whirlwind that threw them into the air. Then, the two were grabbed by a giant ice fist from Weiss as it turned into a giant ice ball that rolled the two across the arena.
Arslan rolls her eyes at this as she uses her rope dart to get in front of the giant ball. She plants her right heel into the ground as she raises her left arm, and she then uses the palm of her hand to break the ice ball.
"Yang!!*Yang turns to Weiss as she creates an ice slide like shape* NOW!" Weiss shouts as Yang blasts herself onto the slide.
Blake ran up to the slide as she threw her kusarigama at Yang, Yang caught it as she lands on Ruby's shoulder. Ruby launches Yang forwards as Blake is launched with Yang as well. The unsuspecting members of Team ABRN look up as they see Blake launch Yang forwards, and for Yang to punch Arslan, taking the two others with her as well.
"Yes!" Yang cheers as the match ends.
"And that's the match! Team RWBY is victorious!" Prof. Port announces.
"We... did it?" Weiss asks, surprised at their victory.
"*Ruby looks at Yang for confirmation, and Yang puts her thumbs up* WE DID IIIIIIIIIT!" Ruby screams as their fight ends for now.
In the seats of the stadium sits down Team DVIL as they stand up to leave from since the match had ended and theirs was next.
"That was fun." Dante says to his team.
"Yeah, they did a pretty good job." Lady says.
"So, any of you wanna get something to eat before our match?" Dante asks.
"I am pretty hungry." Trish says as there is a moment of awkward silence.
"So... do any of you know where we can eat?" Dante asks as (Y/n) sighs.
"Follow me." (Y/n) says as they begin walking again.
Thus, Team DVIL leave the colosseum and go into the fairground. In there, they see Team RWBY walking forwards as well. They also see Emerald walking up to the girls with a red wallet.
"Hey! Might be hard to eat without this." Emerald says to Ruby as she turns around.
"It might just be." (Y/n) says as Emerald's eyes widen as she turns back to look at (Y/n).
She looks back to see (Y/n) standing behind her with a menacing glow in his eyes.
"W-W-When did you get here?" Emerald asks.
"When I saw what you did.*Emerald starts to shake because of (Y/n)'s stare* Just kidding." (Y/n) says as the atmosphere lightened up, and Emerald started to breath normally.
"*Ruby pats around her pockets* No, no, no, no!" Ruby says as she looks at Emerald and takes the wallet.
"Good to see you, Ruby. You as well, (Y/n)." Emerald says, calming down after what happened before.
"Hey, (Y/n). Thanks, Emerald. Guess I dropped it. Girl pockets are the worst!" Ruby says while slouching.
"Yes, pockets for female clothing are pretty bad." (Y/n) says, making Emerald and Ruby look at him confused.
"How do you know that?" Ruby asks (Y/n).
"I remember that one. A good prank from my part. I even got Lady and Trish to help." Dante says as him and Yang walk up to the three.
"(Y/n) was dressed as a girl?*Dante nods* I would pay to see that." Yang says as (Y/n) just deadpans.
"When did you get here, Emerald?" Dante asks.
"We just left the stadium after Team RWBY's amazing fight! You guys were awesome, Ruby!" Emerald says to Ruby.
"*Ruby blushes as she mumbles* Oh, shut your stupid little face..." Ruby mumbles.
From behind Ruby walks in Blake, Weiss, Lady, and Trish.
"I heard your team progressed to the next round too." Blake says.
"You know, I feel that we never see your other teammates." Weiss says.
"How'd they do in the fight?" Yang asks Emerald as she leans her head up to think.
In Emerald's match, they pretty much take down the team almost immediately. Cinder kicking down one of their opponents so that a girl with black pigtails could lean down on the guy and knock him out.
"Really well." Emerald says while nodding.
"That's great! Uh... Why don't we all go and get some victory food together?" Ruby asks Emerald.
"Oh, gosh, that's so nice of you, but my teammates are all kind of...*Emerald looks back to see Mercury sniffing a leather boot on a shelf of a shop*... Introverted. Really socially awkward." Emerald says.
'I would know.' (Y/n) thought as he remembered small bits of the past.
"Ooh, yeah, I could see that." Yang says.
"So, yeah, looks like Merc and I are going to be moving on to the doubles round. What about you Team RWBY?" Mercury asks.
"Well, as the leader of this team, I thought long and hard about this decision." Ruby says, proud of herself.
"We put it to a vote." Weiss cuts in.
"Y-Yes, so, but I decided that we should put it to a vote." Ruby backtracks.
"We voted for Weiss and Yang." Blake says.
"*Curtsying* I will happily represent Team RWBY." Weiss says.
"*Yang pounds her fists together* Yeah, we're gonna kick some butt!" Yang says.
"What?!" Dante cuts in as everyone looks at him.
"What's wrong?" Ruby asks Dante.
"Our fight was changed to another team? What type of bullshiii-*Dante sees Team RWBY ,minus Ruby, glaring at him* shark. Bull Shark is this?" Dante asks himself.
"What? Who were we supposed to fight?" Lady asks Dante.
"A team from Atlas, Team FNKI is their name." Dante answers.
"Who are we fighting now?" Trish says, irritated by this.
"Team CFVY." Dante says, surprising most of the people there.
"That is surprising, and yet I wonder why it happened." (Y/n) says.
"I guess it doesn't matter too much, though. A fight is a fight." Dante says.
"Well, good luck for both of your teams. If Mercury and I see any of you down the line, don't think we'll go easy on ya." Emerald says to both teams.
"Wouldn't have it any other way." Yang says.
"We wouldn't take it easy on you either." Lady says.
"Alright, well we're gonna go catch some more fights." Emerald says as she turns and leaves.
Team RWBY and Team DVIL turn the other way as they go to find a shop to eat.
"Have fun!" Ruby says while waving back, getting a wave from Emerald.
"See you later!" Emerald says while dropping her smile as she looks disgusted while walking with Mercury.
"So, how are the new "friends"?" Mercury asks Emerald.
"I hate them." Emerald says while scowling.
"*Shrug* Orders are orders." Mercury says.
"I just... How can they be so happy all the time?! At least (Y/n) seems to not be the same, but Cinder hates him." Emerald says.
"Did you atleast get what we want?" Mercury asks Emerald.
"It's the heiress and the bimbo. Also, the match is in." Emerald says.
"Hmm, alright. At least we know who we're working with." Mercury says.
Right now, Team RWBY and Team DVIL are sat down on the stools for the shop that they are going to eat from.
"I'll have a bowl of the regular, please." Yang says to the shopkeep as a large bowl of noodles is put in front of her.
"Oooh... I'll take the same." Ruby says as the same size of bowl with noodles is slid in front of her.
"Hmm, do you have anything with low-salt...?*Another large bowl is slid in front of Weiss* Umm... okay..." Weiss says.
"I'll have a mix of things.*A bowl with many different foods, somehow pizza is there, being in front of him* Ahh, right up my alley." Dante says.
"Can I get something smaller?" Trish asks as a medium sized bowl is slid right in front of her.
"I'll have the same size." Lady says as another medium sized bowl is slid onto the table.
Instead of talking, Blake and (Y/n) merely give a nod to the shopkeep as he nods back. The shopkeep goes to the back of the shop as in a mere second, the shopkeep goes back to the front. He leaves two bowls, one with noodles and many fish on top and one small bowl that is divided into two section that is for a salad and sushi.
Blake's eyes light up as she drools over the food in front of her. (Y/n) seems to be taking it better though... Nevermind, (Y/n) trembles as he waits to be able to eat his food. Weiss looks at the seven hungry people before pulling out a blue credit card from the Schnee Dust Company, giving it to the shopkeep.
"Aw, Weiss! What's the occasion?!" Yang asks Weiss.
"Consider it thanks for sending me to the doubles round.*But the happy mood is ruined by Weiss' credit card being thrown onto the desk, and the shopkeep pointing at the cash register showing ^DECLINED^ * What?! How can my card be declined? I was barely into my monthly allowance!" Weiss says.
Blake and (Y/n) look at each other quickly as they try to drag their bowls of food to them, but both bowls are taken away by the shopkeep. They slump down onto the table as the food is gone from their grasps.
"Nooo!!" Blake says with her head on the table.
"Dammit!*Points at the shopkeep* You will die, bastard!!" (Y/n) shouts as he slams his fist on the table, and flops his head on the table as well.
"Maybe I could help?"
Team RWBY and Team DVIL look up to see Team JNPR standing right there with Pyrrha asking them.
"Pyrrha!" Ruby says as she flings her arms open in delight.
"Aw, you don't have to." Yang says.
"Yeah, we don't really need you to waste anything on us." Lady says.
"But she could!!!" Blake desperately says.
"Yes, help would be desired!!!" (Y/n) says.
"Well, *Gestures over to RWBY* I think you guys earned it after that battle.*She then gestures over to DVIL* And I heard you guys have a match coming up so be my guest." Pyrrha says.
"Mind if we join you?" Jaune asks.
And so, the three teams ate their own foods at their own pace, each enjoying it a lot. So, after they had ate, all that was left on the table was all of the empty bowls while most of them were holding their stomachs in a sickly manner.
"Was it wise to eat so much before a fight?" Lady asks.
The shopkeep quickly comes and picks up all the bowls as he leaves to the back once again.
"Of course! It will give you four energy!" Pyrrha says while smiling at them.
"I love me some pizza, but what was in the rest of that." Dante says as he closes his coat over his chest.
"Ooh!*Nora grins evilly* If any of you barf, aim it at the enemy!" Nora says to Team DVIL.
"Nora, that's disgusting.*He looks at DVIL* But if you feel the urge..." Ren says to them.
"Right.*Dante stands up as the three others follow* We should get leaving." Dante says as RWBY and JNPR look at them.
"So, you think you guys are ready?" Ruby asks.
"Yeah! Let's make a bet.*Ruby nods* If we beat Team CFVY in a faster time then your fight than you have to let me use Crescent Rose for some time. Deal?" Dante asks.
Ruby struggles to answer before she sighs.
"Fine! We finished our fight in about 4 to 5 minutes, so you guys have to do it in 3." Ruby says.
"That's a deal." Dante says.
"I'm surprised you agreed to that, Ruby." Yang says to Ruby.
"Hey! I can agree to something." Ruby says.
"Let's hope that doesn't lead to anything bad." Weiss says.
"Would Team DVIL please report to the battlegrounds immediately!" Prof. Port is heard from the intercoms.
"Yes! Like they were scheduled to, several minutes ago!" Dr. Oobleck says.
"We should be going now." (Y/n) says as they leave the shop.
"Good luck!" Ruby says.
____________________________
The crowd cheers louder than ever as they are about to witness the team that was said to bring down a threat that could have destroyed many places. Also, Team RWBY walks into the colosseum as they also are there to watch the fight and right behind them is Emerald and Mercury. Team DVIL and Team CFVY walk into the arena as they line themselves in front of each other.
"I wonder who's gonna win." Mercury says with a large bucket of Popcorn in his hands.
"Tch. As if we didn't already know." Emerald says as Cinder walks up to them in her new outfit.
Cinder has a pair of jeans, an orange sleeveless jacket, some gloves, and bandages on her wrist and over her chest.
"*Cinder leans in as she grabs an unpopped kernel from the bucket of Popcorn* Oh, come now. Even if you know how the story ends, that doesn't make it any less fun to watch." Cinder says as the kernel pops, and she eats it while sitting down on her chair.
"Team DVIL from Beacon versus Team CFVY from Beacon as well!" Prof. Port says as both teams get into their fighting stances.
Holographic roulettes begin to spawn in a circle around the team as they spin for the biome they're going to be fighting in. The first roulette stops as it shows many city skyscrapers, and the second one stops as it shows rain pouring down. The field opens up completely as large 10 meter buildings raise from below. Then, clouds cover the buildings as the rain drops all over the field.
"Three... Two... One... Begin!"
(Y/n) grabs the handle of Yamato as his eyes shine a bright blue.
