Finally the day came, team RWBY and team AG's first mission together. Weiss and I had officially started dating last week and we happily held hands as we walked towards the airship.

"Ok team!" Ruby spoke up as the finished loading, "Here's the plan!"

Weiss, Yang and I smirked a little bit at the younger girl. It was hard to believe that a girl, two years younger than the rest of us, was able to lead her own team. It was just surprising to realize how much we looked up to and respected her.

"Once we get to the village, we will unpack our stuff in a small hotel in the center of the town." Ruby explained, "The villagers have let us have three rooms for free so long as we don't break anything. For this entire mission, if we have to split up, even at the hotel, we will split off in our perspective partnerships. Sorry Alex and Weiss, you two will not be running off together."

"Did Winter put you up to this team spit thing?" I asked.

"Maybe. Anyway, after we unpack, the villagers will show us where they want the tower and we will work on clearing the area and putting up the fence."

"Who will be butting up the fence if we will all be off fighting monsters?" Yang asked.

"Alex and Grant of course!"

"What?" Grant and I asked in unison.

"You two are the guys."

"But both you and Yang are stronger than me!" I complained to Ruby, "Besides, you're the build stuff person!"

"I build weapons, not fences." Ruby said.

"If I may," Blake interjected, "Alex is right. Why don't you and Grant work on the fence? I should only take a couple hours anyway. Then split into our partners."

"Why our partners anyway?" Grant asked.

"Because," Blake explained, "All year we have gotten close to our partners and learned to work better than with anyone on the team. Like, Alex and Weiss are dating and yang and Grant are dating but you still lack a lot of the personality and battle knowledge of you significant others. And they are our 'partners' for a reason."

"Oh, I get it." Grant nodded, obviously not understanding a word Blake said.

"Ok fine." Ruby continued, "We will do that. After the fence is up we will hunt down the packs. Got it?"

Everyone nodded and headed off to their regular jobs.

As Grant and I walked around, we only ran into minor grimm like ursai and boarbatusks. We ran into a few beowolves but nothing like an entire nest.

"Hey," Grant said, "I've been meaning to ask you..."

I raised an eyebrow, "What?"

"Since arriving here," He shifted nervously, "Has anything...strange happened?"

"Well," I thought back to when I first arrived here and figured, it can't hurt to tell him, "When I first got here I came through a portal in Ozpin's office."

"That explains you semblance." Grant muttered to himself and then looked back at me, "Anything else?"

"Well..." I wasn't sure I wanted to tell him about that giant grimm that attacked me and about Next. First I thought I should tell him about something far more important, well, to me anyway. "Hey Grant, I was four when you got sent here right?"

Grant nodded.

So he couldn't have even known.

"I need to tell you something that I've been keeping to myself so you can't tell the girls. I mean, at all." I said.

Grant got a worried look on his face, "Ok..."

I took a deep breath and began my explanation. "In July, roughly three years ago, one of my favorite shows began. It was called RWBY as in, team RWBY. It was generally about a team of four girls who were attending beacon academy as huntresses in training. The main protagonist was Ruby Rose. I can even tell you how she got into Beacon early and about Blake's old partner and what his name is. By now, I can tell you next season has already concluded and that we are in the midst of the fourth."

Grant went slack jawed and wide eyed. I waved my hand in front of his face to snap him out of it.

"You have got to me f**king kidding me." Grant said, "So we are inside of a TV series?"

"Web series but yes." I told him.

"I know for a fact your wrong." Grant said simply, "Well, partially anyways."

I cocked an eyebrow, "How so?"

"The show started three years ago." He explained, "I've been here much longer."

"Hmm..." I thought, "That explains why I came here part way through volume 2."

"Yeah," Grant said, "So, in theory, if we could be pulled into Remnant, couldn't someone be pulled out?"

I nodded, seeing his point.

"And," Grant continued, flailing his arms, "Couldn't a person being pulled into our universe, keep his semblance that could very well be foresight and with no memories about here or having a semblance, his visions might be translated into an idea for a TV series?"

It was now my turn to go wide eyed. For someone who couldn't grasp why we were splitting off into our partners, he was actually pretty smart, or just a good theorist.

"That would make so much sense." I exclaimed, "But why focus on Ruby?"

Grant shrugged as he rushed at an approaching beowolf and killed it quickly.

"I'm not sure." He said as the body evaporated, "But now I need to ask you; how did you end up here?"

I sighed, knowing that I would eventually have to tell him. Team RWBY and no doubt JNPR knew, "I was trying to watch RWBY in the basement but nothing was working, then this creepy voice called me and I went outside then it knocked me out, said something about the destroyer then I woke up to Ruby's scythe in my face at the mercy of Weiss's command."

Grant nodded, "Tell me everything that happened before you woke up in the woods."

I did as I was told. Telling him everything from Weiss stabbing me all the way to Next and the so called possession of me and the giant octopus grimm. I purposely left out everything about the voice in my head.

After I was done, Grant grabbed my shoulders and looked at me with fearful eyes, "You're leaving something out!" He yelled at me, "What is it you're not telling me?"

"I don't-" I tried but was interrupted.

"Voices?" Grant said suddenly, then pointed to his head, "You have voices in your head that keep telling what to do, right? One of them is dark and light though right? You have nightmares about you killing your friends then the voice speaks to you."

"Yeah but-" I tried.

"Alex, did it tell you not to find me?" Grant asked calmly.

I nodded, "Dude, your scaring me. What's going on?"

"There are so many things I have to tell you but right now, we have a mission. I will tell you tonight."

I could faintly see tears in his eyes, which frightened me. He's much like Yang in that respect which scared me even more. There was also fear in his eyes that made me shudder. I could only nod as he released me and took a breath before walking.

"I have a voice too." Grant said after a few hours of silence.

I looked at him in shock. So, is this normal? I thought to myself.

"It's been telling me to find you for years and why." He told me.

The sun has begun to set, "We should head back." I told him.

To be honest, I knew that we could probably stay out for another hour but I really wanted to know why Grant was so warry of the voices. I also kind of wanted to spend time with Weiss when she got back.

We walked through the forest and we eventually met up with Yang and Blake who had finished putting up the massive and laid down the markers for the building. They were sound asleep on the inside of the massive fence. Blake was leaning into Yang with the brawler's arm firmly around the Faunus.

Grant had a sad smile directed at Yang.

"What's wrong?" I asked, "I think they look cute."

"Yeah." Grant sighed as my scroll buzzed.

I saw that the message was from Ruby, sending us coordinates to where they were staying. She must've messaged Yang as well because I heard a feint buzz before the blonde jolted herself and Blake awake.

I chuckled lightly as Grant frowned and looked away.

What's up with him? I asked myself.

"Hey." Grant sighed, "Shall we go."

"Yeah," Yang frowned as well, getting to her feet, "Let's go."

We all walked silently until Ruby called to us from a small house about ten minutes from the site for the guard tower.

"Grant and I will be right there Ruby!" I yelled as I shoved him behind a tree.

"What the hell!" Grant said angrily.

"Okay." I breathed, "Now talk! What's up with you and Yang?"

Grant looked at me with sad eyes that made me feel like I just kicked a puppy.

"She likes Blake." He said.

I watched the show so that doesn't really come as a surprise, "I thought you two were dating?"

"We were, but one night she looked all depressed and that's when she told me." Grant told me, "I think we need to talk about that thing now."

I raised my eyebrow and I was confused as to why he got that from Yang talking about Blake, "Can we eat first."

He nodded, "I think we need to tell the girls who we are."

"No," I protested, "At least not yet."

With that we headed into the house to eat.
