RWBY: Path Of Blood

Arriving at the ruins... Neo And Haruki saw Blake and Yang taking the white knight piece. "Hey guys! Are these the relics professor Ozpin talked about?" Haruki put on an amicable smile and waved at the two of them. "Huh? O-Oh Yeah! Aren"t you two Ruby"s new friends?" Yang was shocked because she didn"t even sense them until they talked to her. "Ahh Yes, I"m Haruki and this is Neo" Neo smiles at them. "I"m Yang! and this is my partner Blake!" Blake was startled inwardly for Haruki"s gaze towards her as if he knew who she truly was... "Hi..." Blake said to cover up her nervousness as she looks around. Yang unable to hold it in anymore she asks Haruki. "You know the two of you have been together this whole time, Are you two like, Together Together?" Haruki Responded with a smile. While Neo on the other hand Hooks her arms on his while smiling. "Ooohh!" Yang was surprised on seeing such a couple on beacon, Her inner gossip powers were awakening. "Blaaaake! did you see her grab his arms like it"s nothing? Kyaaa! How sweet!" as Yang were enjoying the show Haruki proceeded grabbing the White King Piece. As Yang was Bombarding Haruki with questions, Blake was observing him. For His stature and way of talking seems familiar to her, Almost as if... they"ve worked together before. He doesn"t seem like a white fang member... But why do I feel like I have seen him and Adam go on missions before. "Blake! You kinda have been staring at Haruki for a while now." Yang woke Blake from her stupor. Blake was about to explain herself but suddenly...

*Crash* A Deathstalker appeared from the forest chasing Pyrrha, then Ruby fell from the sky after riding on a Nevermore. Nora and Ren also arrived at the scene, every one in the main cast has arrived at the scene. "Heyya! We bought the cavalry!" Ruby said while scratching her head. "Everyone be on your guard, we must kill these monsters at all costs."Ren called out. Haruki felt elated as he saw everyone... the best part is... he"s standing right here! It"s like he"s part of the cast. Haruki then stared at the approaching Deathstalker about to sting Pyrrha, He then activated Lightning form, and used his guandao to deflect the tail. *clang* "Hey! Are you okay?" Pyrrha expecting to be flung away was shocked on the sudden appearance of the boy that winked at her on the opening ceremony.

"This is no time to be in a daze girl!" Haruki then grabbed her by the waist and kick stepped on the Deathstalkers tail to gain momentum as it swing it. Landing in front of the others he let down Pyrrha who was still in a daze. "Woaaaah! Haruki, I didn"t know you were that strong!" Ruby chimed. Jaune after getting off the tree he was stuck in asked Pyrrha if she was okay. "Uhh Pyrrha are you okay?" Pyrrha looks at Jaune. "uh-oh yeah..."

Pyrrhas mind was in a turmoil, for she has never been saved by anyone before. Usually it"s the opposite. Her heartbeat was getting faster by the minute, Looking at haruki it seems he knows her reputation as a top student. Though it seems haruki doesn"t even mind her status not one bit, it"s as if he sees her only as a normal girl. Pyrrha was tired of being seen as some kind of G.o.ddess of victory, she wants them to see who she really was, a young girl who wants to enjoy herself too. but she was brought back to reality by the approaching deathstalker.

"It"s a nice moment and all, but can we all focus they are coming this way!" Ren Brought out his trademark Stormflower and fired at the deathstalker. Ruby used her semblance and charged towards it. Slashing at it"s face, but she was blocked by the pincers. Then suddenly the nevermore threw it"s feather blades towards the others. Haruki spun his guandao blocking the huge feather blades. Yang propelled herself using her gauntlets towards the Deathstalker and bashed it with her fist repeatedly, while Blake distracted it with her clones. Nora swung her hammer at it"s legs breaking one of it. Weiss then used her glyphs to freeze half of the monsters body. Neo appeared out of nowhere stabbing at it"s eyes. *Raaaaaaahhh* It screamed in pain after being blinded by Neo. It"s stabbed at her using it"s tail but Pyrrha and Jaune Blocked it, Essentially creating an opening For Ruby, Ren, and Haruki to Stab at it"s weak points. The Deathstalker broke the ice and roared towards them. The damage was nearly not enough to take it down. "What do we do now?" Jaune asked as he was shaking it was his first time fighting a Grimm this big. "We need to sever it"s tail first." Pyrrha suggested as she threw her spear towards the approaching Grimm.

Haruki then threw his guandao on top of the approaching smaller Grimm, He then activated Lightning Form to go to it he then slams his blade downwards. Dancing madly between claws and fangs, He killed with efficiency with Neo beside him they were like dancing in the rain...but that rain was blood. As he cleared up a path he shouted towards them "Now the path is clear!!" The others charged towards the Deathstalker. Weiss Froze the ground beneath the large grimm, slipping down the Grimm used it"s tail to sweep at them. Jaune and Pyrrha blocked the tail once again. Nora then hammered the tail to the ground, Yang Punched it in the eyes to distract it. While Blake used the chains on her scythe to hold the tail in place. Ren Kept Shooting at it"s face,Slowly cracking it. Ruby then used Her semblance to gather momentum and her gun to propell her further, She then slashed towards the tail severing it. The Deathstalker screamed in pain as it was flailing it pincers wildly it didn"t notice Haruki and Neo beneath it as they stabbed below Wounding it. Weiss the summoned Ice Spikes Piercing the wound they made below. The Deathstalker was dead but thier worries weren"t over For the nevermore hovering above swooped down. Seeing this Haruki and Ren Fired at the huge Grimm to try and slow it down. Yang then jumped on one of Weiss glyphs along with Nora as the both swung at it. *crash* The huge Grimm fell towards the nearby Ruins.

The Team chasing after the Grimm suddenly noticed an eerie presence. It was a nuckelavee, it sensed the fear from them... Screaming as it charged towards them. Haruki was startled inside. "What the f.u.c.k is a nuckelavee doing here??" "Everyone! Get the h.e.l.l out of this place right now!!" Extending it"s arms it shot towards them. Haruki used lightning form to block it using his Guandao, but it sent him flying a dozen meters. As if woken up by the screaming of the Grimm everyone came back to their senses. They all ran towards the direction haruki was sent flying. Neo was the first to arrive. "Neo, you gotta go with them..." But Neo shakes her head (Im gonna stay with you!) Then the others arrived beside haruki. Pyrrha was about to ask haruki if he was okay but she saw Neo hugging Haruki, She felt a stinging pain in her chest, not really getting why... so she just lets ruby do the talking... "Haruki are you okay!?" Haruki nods his head. "We have to run, this one is a lot stronger than the rest we can"t handle it..." Jaune and Ren Helped Haruki up. The knuckelavee then charged towards them. "s.h.i.t! We"re too late! Everyone leave I"ll hold it back." Ruby protested "We can"t just leave you!" Haruki then screamed "Just shut up and go! Do you want everyone to die?!" Unable to talk back Ruby just Bites her lip. Pyrrha then tells everyone to go. She looks back at Haruki worriedly, "Please be safe..." she whispered... Taking everyone she fled towards Beacon to notify Ospin, and send reinforcements.

Haruki then faces the knuckelavee alone... or so he thought but the Neo that was with the others suddenly vanished and appeared beside haruki. "Stubborn girl what are you doing here?" He says as he touches Neo"s face. "Don"t worry Darling I"m very strong..." He says after kissing Neo in the forehead. He activated lightning form and summoned Fenrir Fangs along with absolute Demise. The Grimm shouts and extended it"s claws towards haruki. "Too slow... you"re far too slow!" He appeared on it"s hind legs but he under estimated the reflexes of the monster as it used it"s hooves to kick haruki sending him flying... But he managed to scratch it with the fangs. but the poison was far to little to take it down. So he told Neo to make an illusion to distract it. So he could summon the black wolves. Haruki made the wolves charge towards it but it spun it"s arms around making the hounds dissapear. Haruki used that opening to Slash towards one of it"s legs. The knuckelavee was stunned... Haruki used this opportunity to use Fenrir fangs to poison it. He repeated that process multiple times. It"s slowly weakens, but Neo was getting exhausted from using her semblance too much. So haruki summoned a huge barrel of Liquid Nitrogen. Poured it towards the Horse head and punched it, shattering the head. Essentially Crippling it. He used absolute demise to sever it"s limbs. The knuckelavee Screeched in pain as it opens it"s mouth to bite at Haruki. But Haruki Cut off it"s Head cleanly. *phew* Haruki finally breathed a sigh of relief... Showing that kind of power, He thought Neo would bombard him with questions but she just runs at him and hugs him for a while. The two basked in the moment...

Arriving at Ozpins location they were about to tell what happened... But He was there just looking at his screen worriedly, but when he looked up he saw his students safe and sound except two were missing. He asked what happened, For the observer drones were killed by the Huge Grimm almost instantly. They explained what happened much to Ozpins surprise for he expected haruki to just leave them to their demise.

As Ozpin and the students were about to return to beacon and call Hunters to hunt the Huge Grimm. Haruki and Neo appeared in the distance... Seeing that they"re safe and sound everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
