Chapter 15: Dreams Of The Past.
Ruby watched from her dorm window as Ashley let Mei into her sleeping quarters.
"Hey Sis, whatcha doing?" Said Yang looking over to her sister from her bed.
"I think Mei Yin Li hates me." She said not even looking Yangs way.
"I doubt that, she just met you." Yang reassured her little sister.
"Look Ruby I'm sure Mei is just having a hard time adjusting to Remnant." Said Weiss.
Mei stopped at the the door and looked up to the window of team RWBYS dorm.
"Eep." Ruby squeaked as she tackled her sister to the ground to avoid being seen.
"Take it easy Rube, I don't think she SAUR us." Yang grinned.
"Oh Oum no." Said Blake realizing that Yang came up with new puns.
"Yang don't start with the puns." Weiss groaned.
"Sorry princess I can't, I DINO what to tell you."
"Ugh!!!"
"Yang please stop!" Ruby pleaded.
"I'm SAUR-ee about the half baked puns I feel PTERO-bill."
"I'm going to get some fresh air." Said Blake walking out of the room.
"Nothing will TRICERA-top this pun master."
"YANG!!!" Ruby and Weiss yelled one annoyance.
*meanwhile in JNPR's room.*
Pyrrha laid one her bed staring up at the ceiling.
"To think I have the same ability as Professor Dunes and grandmaster Mei Yin Li." She thought to herself.
Come to think of it she became a huntress with the intentions to protect the innocent but unknown to her friends she secretly always felt bad for having to kill the Grimm. She knew it had to be done, but it wasn't as if they new any better. They're soulless animals after all if anything there just acting out of nature.
"Hey Pyrrha ." Nora said cheerfully popping out of nowhere.
"AHH!" Pyrrha yelped before instinctively using her semblance to throw a pan at Nora.
Pyrrha then winced realizing she just hit her teammate.
"I'm sorry!"
Jaune and Ren then walked in and sighed.
"Nora this is why you can't just sneak up on people like that." Said Ren.
"I can't help it Ren." Nora replied standing up and rubbing her head.
"Everything alright Pyrrha?" Ren asked turning toward her.
"Uh... yes I'm fine Ren." She smiled.
"Are you sure Pyrrha?" Asked Jaune a little Worried. "Ever since you kil-er we came back from rescuing Olivia you've been acting different."
"Jaune you don't have worry, I'm fine really." She assured her leader.
"Well ok." Jaune said before smiling back. "Well guys lets head to bed we got an early day tomorrow."
"Hope I get to break some legs." Cheered Nora.
"Please don't." Sighed Ren.
"Good night everyone." Pyrrha said before hitting the sack.
*Later....*
Pyrrha opened her eyes to see that she was no longer in her dorm.
She jumped out of bed and attempted to grab Milo and Akouo only to realize that they weren't there either.
Pyrrha took a moment to calm down.
"This must be a dream." She reassured herself.
She then took the moment to explore her surroundings. she realized it was night she was in a huge village unlike any other she's seen it was almost a city. Buildings varied from wood stone and metal, and the village was inhabited by dinosaurs of all kinds with unusual colors similar to Professor Dunes Dino's. And they were being catered to by people of all race age and gender.
"Oh hello I haven't seen you around are you visiting from one of the nearby settlements from Valguero?"
She turned around to see a friendly man in his mid 20's leading a dark blue, black and white Pteranodon by the reins.
"Yeah I was blessed with the mark and my family agreed to have me sent here to become a fully fledged BeastMaster." Said another voice.
Pyrrha turned once more to see a little 5 year old girl.
The man then phased through Pyrrha giving her quite a shock.
"Well little one the names Talahad Draco." He smiled. " if you wanna become an initiate you'll have to visit Jet Johnson he handles all the new Youngblood's that come here, I think he's talking to Huntmaster Drakeblood over in the initiation center."
"Thank you Mr Draco." The girl smiled as she headed off in that direction.
"What in Oum's name is going on?" Pyrrha asked herself.
"I'd be careful with all that experimentation with Element Dia." Said a familiar voice. "I wouldn't want one of my top students to end up like Edmund."
Pyrrha looked over to see non other then Grandmaster Mei Yin Li. And she was talking to some kind of cyborg like woman.
"I'm fine really Grandmaster," the cyber woman smiled. "I got everything under control."
"If that's so then why did Talahad reported that during a mission yesterday your arm malfunctioned and blew up a random villagers house." Mei stated raising a brow.
"Damn I knew Draco couldn't keep his mouth shut." Dia muttered. "Uh well maybe the arm can use a few tweaks." She smiled nervously.
Mei simply sighed and rolled her eyes. "Just keep it under control, that's all I ask." She said turning around to walk away. " and also stop tinkering with your modifications in front of the Youngblood's your appearance alone already frightens them enough."
"You got it boss." She saluted.
Pyrrha decided to follow the grandmaster.
The grandmaster was quite friendly to everyone who acknowledged and greeted her as she made her way to the initiation center.
"So old man how are the youngbloods doing?" Said a hooded figure with a unique bow strapped to his back.
"Ah There are learning quite quickly mr Drakeblood." The older man smiled. "Some of them already tamed there first animal."
"Really?" Exclaimed the Hooded man. "That's very impressive, these youngbloods show much potential."
"Indeeed they do Kazuma." Smiled the old man.
Mei walked toward both of them causing them both to bow to the grandmaster.
"Grandmaster Li," greeted Kazuma.
"Have you come to see the progress of the youngbloods?" Asked the old man.
"Perhaps another time Jet." She replied. "Kazuma may I speak to you in private?"
"Of course grandmaster." Nodded Kazuma. "Excuse us Johnson."
Kazuma followed Mei into a secluded part of the initiation center.
"What is it Mei?" He asked.
"A Man from the west village came to me with this...concerning photo he took earlier today while he was on a walk." Mei said handing Kazuma a photo.
Kazuma looked in shock at the photo.
It was a herd of wild triceratops all slaughtered. No meat hide or anything were taken from them, they were just left there.
"The man said the herd was merely grazing peacefully minding there own business when a group of warriors came out of nowhere and butchered them and left there bodies to rot," Mei Explained. "He was to fearful for his own life to intervene so he hid behind some rocks...I don't know who could be so disrespectful to the wildlife and be so wasteful."
"It couldn't have been bandits."said Kazuma. "They would have at least taken the hide and horns to sell for profit."
"The man reported the warriors all had Silver colored eyes."
"Silver eyes?" Exclaimed Pyrrha.
Kazuma looked up to Mei in confusion. "Silver? That's not a natural eye color....are you certain this man is telling the truth?"
"I was just as skeptical Kazuma." Said Mei. "But the witness was not intoxicated and the look in his eyes told me he truly believe what he saw was real."
"So you want me to investigate what is up with these silver eyed people?" Asked Kazuma.
"Precisely your my eyes and ears Kazuma I want you to tell me what the hell is happening within the ark system." Said Mei.
"Consider it done Mei." Kazuma nodded.
Kazuma walked out of the center.
"GRANDMASTER LI!GRANDMASTER LI!" Shouted an ecstatic little girl.
"What is it Emily?" She asked turning around.
"Look I did it I tamed my first dinosaur." She exclaimed pointing at a juvenile pink green and yellow Dilophosaur.
"Ah Well done little one." She chuckled. "You'll become a fine BeastMaster."
She put her hand on the girls shoulder.
"Remember now Amy," Mei said. "The bond between a BeastMaster and their first tame is a sacred one and can never be replaced."
"Protect him with your life and he will do the same."
"Grandmaster Mei, what happened to your first tame?" The girl asked.
Mei's smile faded.
"He sacrificed himself to save me." She said. "...but that is in the past, you must focus on what is happening now and the path you choose to take."
"Ok Grandmaster I'll make you proud!" She said with determination, before running off.
"A BeastMaster's first tame is sacred?" Pyrrha said to herself.
Pyrrha then peacefully woke up and sat up in her bed reflecting on the dream she had.
Meanwhile in Team RWBY's dorm.
........ruby.
......Ruby.
Ruby opened her eyes to see nothing but a wall of ice.
.....Ruby
"Who's there?" She asked putting her fists up in an attempt to look intimidating but only ended up appearing adorable.
Behind you.
Ruby turned to see what seemed to be her mother but her robes were black instead of white.
"Mom?!"
The woman chuckled.
"Not quite I'm your mothers sister." The woman said pulling back her hood.
She looked a lot like her mother Summer only her hair was much longer and her smile wasn't as....soothing.
"H-huh?" Ruby said confused.
"Heh I should've known she'd never tell you about you good old aunt Autumn Rose." The woman chuckled.
"My Aunt?" Ruby asked.
"Yes Ruby," she chuckled once more. "I manage to reach you through the dream your currently having."
"Why come to me now?" Asked Ruby.
"I just managed to get to Remnant dear niece, Autumn smiled. "I don't suppose Summer told you we aren't originally from this world did she."
Ruby couldn't believe what this woman was saying.
"What are you talking about?" She said taking a step back.
"As Ashley May have already told you human beings live in different worlds not just Remnant." Autumn explained. "We happen to be a special breed Ruby."
"Have you ever wondered what was so special about your silver eyes?" She asked Ruby as she begun to slowly pace around her.
"There the mark of a Silverblood." She explained. "A type of human that's destined to become a great warrior."
"I can show you what your purpose is, what your destined for...all you have to do is take my hand."
Autumn reached out for Ruby's hand.
Ruby stared at the hand then Hesitantly begin to reach for Autumns hand.
But just before she could grab Autumns hand a familiar weapon pierced through the ice wall.
Autumn simply sighed.
"Even in death she doesn't know when to quit."
The weapon pierced the wall again and again until it finally shattered to reveal who was wielding it.
"Mom!?" Ruby exclaimed.
"Summer how have you been little sis-
Summer immediately threw her weapon at Autumns face before she could even finish speaking.
Ruby immediately woke up after that.
"What on Remnant is going on?" She thought to herself.
*The Next Morning....*
Mei Yin Li was tending to her featherlight Aya when Pyrrha walked up to her.
"Ms. Li I have been thinking and I want you to train me into a BeastMaster." She asked.
Mei looked at Pyrrha.
"....No." She said flat out.
"Wha-No?!"
"I will not train you."she said sitting up.
"Why not?!"
"The BeastMaster order was wiped out centuries ago I'm merely all that's leftover from it and I refuse to rebuild it just to watch it crumble once more." Mei explained walking away.
"But there's a reason the BeastMasters are returning."
"As far as I know you, Ms. Dunes and I are the only ones that bear the mark," she retorted. "I'd hardly call that a return."
"But we're not extinct, if the BeastMasters were done for there wouldn't be anyone left!"
"I said no Ms Nikos that is final."
I had a dream about you the old beastmasters!" Pyrrha shouted
Mei stopped dead in her tracks.
"What names did you hear in your dream?"
"Talahad Draco, Kazuma Drakeblood, Diana Harmonia, and Jet Johnson."
Mei couldn't believe her ears those were the names of her top pupils back then.
She simply took a deep sigh "fine...meet me in the forest at noon, we'll start your training there."
[End chapter]
