Prologue
She don't understand him, she can't understand his action, not at all
Was the being before her is simply insane like Tyrion or what? If that was true then it would answer so many questions about his action until now, but insane he is not. He know how to act civil and rational, he display enough intelligence and mind that superior than most people!
So he is not insane, but his behavior... It make no sense at all!
"Why?" She asked, anger evident in her voice "Why are you..."
The humanoid creature before her did not react to the fury that given to him, he simply look at her as if she is a statue or something like that
"Frankly I don't care about Human and Faunus, they all can die or go extinct and I won't even bat an eye." He said "They're pitiful creature, weak, petty, and inferior, almost nothing good come from their existence."
She narrowed her eyes, lips pushed into thin line and she clench her teeth internally "Then why? Why you stand in my way, in our goal? If you really think of them like that..."
"Why I wonder." He mused, voice filled with mirth " How about Human and Faunus can be used better than Grimm for minions. How about Human and Faunus stupidity is always amusing to watch. How about Human and Faunus sometime can be inspiring. And how about there is no way for someone to live in isolation for very long time without communication with other being
"There is still many more, I can make a list for you, even write a book if I want to, but truthfully in that list there is no reason why I come for you, because my reason to after you like this is not for Human and Faunus but for myself."
"Yourself?" She inquired, sounding interest and curiosity "And what you mean by that?"
"Simple, I want you." He declared "Your power, the Aura that you inherit from Fall Maiden, the blessing that has been passed for generation." His lips curled up, turned to sneer and feral gleam crossed in his eyes "Imagining how it taste, imagining the sensation that power flowed inside me, it almost make me drool."
How vulgar... But she can understand what he mean by that, she still remember freshly how great it felt when this power flowing inside her after all, how overwhelming it is when she get the full power of Fall Maiden and have it become hers
"So that's it? All of this... Everything you did... Is only because you want it to be like this?"
The creature before her stared, his smile and feral expression gone, replaced by stoic mask, it as if her statement trigger something inside his mind
Then his shoulder began to shake
"Pfft..."
His voice was low but it still able to be heard, it wasn't a word that he utter but a laugh
"Pfft hahahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha!"
His tail swaying in response to his heartful voice that echoed in the area surrounding them. The laugh he let out is not simple one, but laugh that said "I have to hold my stomach because it so damn funny"
The black haired woman let out growl as response, her eyes glowing with restrained power
"What so funny you damn animal?!" She demanded
The animal laugh ceased after that, slowly but it still did, he regain his composure and his tail stop swaying. Then he give
"Let me tell you oh Red Queen, I am a King, I'm superior than any living being, even when I just step my foot to the living World I'm already far more powerful than most Huntsman.
"It is not my strength that allow me to destroy army of Grimm with simple gesture of my hand that make people view me as King, it's not my massive Aura as well, but it was my mind
"I take what I want, I crush what I want, I took life of those who possibly become one of greatest in future with no other reason because I want it. That is what make me King, make me superior, because I can
"And right now what I want..."
The humanoid creature widened his legs, his body lowered, his four fingered hands raised, his tail twitched to upward. His purple colored eyes glowing and for moment they turned to crimson almost like a blood
"Is your Fall Maiden power."
Eerie dark violet flame-like aura started to emit from his whole body, tainting the air with their vile existence. His expression curled into feral grin, almost like a monster from the fairy tale
In response for such threatening declaration Cinder Fall snarled, her body engulfed by fire as she float from the ground, her eyes glowing with amber flame that licking the air
"You insect, you dare to look down on me? I will burn you until nothing left from you!"
The insult doesn't make the monster angry, in fact it seems only elate him further judging by his hungry facial expression
"Come oh Red Queen, let me show you why King is the Best Piece in the Game."
He died
He had read in many fictions, novels and books about those who died or reincarnated that many of them describe that they don't remember what happened to them before death claim them and it need time for them to realize what actually happen
But he did not
For he remember it very clear that he died
It was strange... It was only in blink of eye. It was like... One moment he was sleeping and then... He awake...
He remember how frustrated he was, going home after got fired from his job just because helping friend who in the end sold him out so they can save their own skin
He remember the cold feeling when walk under the rain, forced to go out after fighting with his parent
He remember the moment he wait for the lamp to turn red so can cross over the street, along with people that chatting merrily
He remember how there truck that swiveling on it path when it travel, swaying almost like a drunk man walking and realize just what actually about to happen
He remember people started to scream and run as the truck come to their direction, and he too, also started to follow them
He remember how a mother who pushed her baby stroller halted in middle of her way as the wheel choose that moment to stuck
He remember how he so tempted to left that woman who struggle, screaming and crying as she tried to push her stroller with panic
He remember how in the end he lift over the stroller and let the mother and her baby run first, away from the incoming truck that went wild
He remember how useless he act because it was already too late. The truck was coming, and it hit them, he and the mother while the stroller got shoved away roughly
He remember the pain of his body being shredded apart by the asphalt when his limbs stuck to the wheels and he got pulled by the vehicle, dragged violently like a ragdoll trampled over by group of children
He remember how miracurously that he still survive from that, remember how very painful and hot his body was as he lay weakly and helpless in street that washed by his own blood
And he remember countless blur figures that surround him, shouting and yelling before he feel himself died
And when he open his eyes, here he is now
The first thing he notice that he was sitting, with his hand crossed over his chest, almost like a children in fetal position
Startled and confused because he remember what happend to him, he rose from his place, but only to feel himself hitting something.
'What the?'
No, not hitting something it more like... Wrapped. Constricted by something that not unlike snake. It was hard to move, and even hard to breath -albeit not painful.
He tried to move but it useless, he barely feel himself twitch, whatever constricting or bind him is very strong, it almost like he got stuffed into some kind of cramped place forcefully
Not just ended there, the act to move itself is hard. His whole body was heavy, as if he is under the bottom of the sea or something like that.
And even breathing itself was hard... The air that he feel himself inhale... They're... Heavy... Strange...
And they started to become more hard to inhale.
What in name of any Gods is happening?!
...
...
...
...
...
...
Was he... Was he still alive? Was he survive somehow through that severe injury? He brought to hospital and got saved in time?
And now he is buried alive? Is that it? If that was true then... It would explain why he feel like shoved to cramped place and having hard time to move...
And if he is buried alive...
No... No... No!
He won't die... He won't die! He don't want to die! He still have something he want to do! He still...
And even if... He already died... He refuse to... To died once again -if he is alive somehow- in way like this!
So he struggle, he move frantically, he flail his arms and legs as much as possible, he put strength to his whole body and shout at them to MOVE!
He let out roar as he force himself to stand, he bend his body and extend his legs, his hand opened and stretched. He feel they hit something but he didn't care, he pushed it with all strength he have and he rip whatever he touch
Sound of flesh teared apart resonated, following that afterward is light, light that so bright and blinding. He hissed as he close his eyes due to it, at same time he feel his body no longer constricted, they're back to normal much to his relief
Though there's another problems now
The first is, his head... It hurt. Like, really hurt. He feel his inside was ringing and everything was blur to him, nothing but a sea of colors that mixed together. He even feel his body not as how it supposed to be, seriously, it feels like moving a puppet, unbalance and always swaying around
And the second...
"Food..."
He is hungry... And he not talking about hungry that "Ah I want to take snack" no, he talking about hungry at level of "I want food! Anything! Anything! Food!" to the point he feel his stomach wrenched by his own intestine!
"..ok! Lo..! W..t .. .hat?!"
"You s... .t will be..."
His head snapped toward when he heard voices. It was... It was close... No, not that close but... It still close?
He can't think, his thought is too much a mess. His head that ringing, his vision that keep blurring, and his body that unstable. It make him cannot focus at all
One thing though still manage to crossed inside his mind
'They have foods...'
There smell of food, not delicious or that appetizing, but it still food nonetheless
And he is hungry... Really hungry...
So with hazy mind, and blurring vision, he walk toward to where the food is
New SI story and this time it crossover with Hunter x Hunter!
To be honest originally I plan to cross this with Fairy Tail, with the OC have body of Igneel, Grandeeney or other Dragon, even Acnologia. I mean, imagine, a real giant fire breathing dragon fly around Remnant! That would be cool right?
But I thought twice and think... That would be too much, and the interaction with character will be limited seeing the OC is in form of giant Dragon, and you can't have it walking around the city without get bombard by Bullhead!
Then I began to think again... I was tempted to use Servant from FSN, Siegfried or Lancelot but I think I already did that enough with "Re: Zero, Why me?" and "Normal Life? Yeah, Right..." so I decide this one need to be different, qnother unique idea
Then come Hunter x Hunter
It come in my Recommended YouTube post, I remember I follow it in season one and also watch the battle of few arcs and it enough to make me interested
Then come Chimera Ant Arc...
My knowledge about HxH is limited to be honest and the anime is a bit underrated in my knowledge, but right now I already start my research about it to find out more about Nen or Aura of their universe. To be honest HxH and RWBY actually have potential to be mixed seeing RWBY Aura and HxH Aura is... Very similar, a life force that protect. And Semblance can be categorized as Hatsu or things like that
Beside, I think until now there still no SI RWBY where the protagonist take darker path, so I said "Why not? Maybe it will be interesting" instead of Protagonist that want to make RWBY better, I enter Protagonist that want dominate and create his own rule
I'm sure by now you all already know which body my OC get is, it not that much mystery after all. Anyway, yes I aware this chapter is short but eh, what can you expect? It just the prologue, you can expect longer chapter in next one
I guess this is it for now, I hope you love this chapter! Next one the OC will make himself familiar with his surrounding and explanation what happened. Stay tune and keep reading if you curious about it! And. don't forget to give this story Favorite, Follow, and Review
Ja Ne! XD
