Brandon and the others were inside Twilight’s house, along with Twilight and her friends. They could not believe that these guys were back in Equestria, they began to ask why these two were. Brandon started explaining everything to Them. Hearing this made them more concerned about Daniel Blaze.

“So this Daniel feller somehow ended from your universe to ours?” Applejack asked.

“Pretty much what he said.” Tai said.

“And you guys want us to help you find him?” Rainbow asked curiously.

Brandon looked at Rainbow. “Yes, we must find him and bring him back safely.” He replied.

Just as they were about to discuss their plan, the front door opened to reveal something or someone that wasn’t a pony.

It was a small dragon walking upright toward the door. His entire body of scales was light mulberry, and his underbelly was a spring budish grey. His spikes were a green harlequin and his bat wing shaped ear fronds were a light lime green. His eyes were a moderate green color.

The dragon looked at Twilight. “Hey Twilight there’s something I-“

He then paused and noticed the humans and a skeleton were in the room. He felt confused and a little scared of them.

Twilight looked at the dragon. “Oh Spike, you’re just in time. I would like you to meet our new guests.” She said smiling.

“Um...new guests?” He asked.

“That’s right. The guy with the trench coat is Brandon,”

“What’s good?” He greeted.

“The one next to him is Tai,”

“Hey.” He greeted with a wave.

“The Skeleton with a giant paintbrush is Ink,”

“Hey there, how’s it going.” He greeted smiling and waving.

“The one in the white skirt is Weiss,”

“A pleasure,” She greeted with a nod.

“The one with a yellow mane is Yang,”

“Sup!” She greeted with a smirk.

“The one with a bow tie is Blake,”

Blake greeted with a wave.

“And lastly the girl with the red hood is Ruby,”

“Hello!” She greeted cheerfully.

The Dragon(or Spike as Twilight called him)walked up, getting suspicious about the newcomers. “These guys remind me of some pony, but I don’t know who.” He said to himself.

“Um Spike?” Twilight asked.

“Oh sorry about that,” Spike said. “I’m Spike, Twilight’s number one assistant.”

Applejack stepped in the conversation. “Um Spike, didn’t you have something you wanted to tell Twilight?”

“Oh right, I forgot about that,” Spike said, turning his attention to Twilight. “I was supposed to tell you that I saw a few creatures head into town. They was walking on two legs, wearing hooded cloaks and one of them was holding a stick.”

Everyone looked at Spike confused. They didn’t know if Spike was making this up or if he was serious.

“Really, a stick,” Tai said. “That is the most ridiculous thing I ever heard.”

Brandon was looking down for a moment. He couldn’t understand what those hooded figures are even doing here, nor did he understand what they wanted from this place.

He looked at Spike with concern. “Spike, do you know what they want from this town?” Brandon asked curiously.

Suddenly, the door burst open, and they all saw a grey pegasus at the entrance panting heavily.

She had a golden mane, tail, grey fur, and had a tattoo of bubbles on her flank. Her eyes were golden like her mane and tail, but what surprised Brandon and the others was that her eyes were a little crooked, unable to focus on the same time.

"Derpy what's wrong?" Twilight asked.

"There’s dark creatures...at the edge of town...there's a lot of them!" Derpy said breathless.

“What are you talking about?” Rainbow asked.

Ink then began to realize on what she meant on dark creatures. “Guys I think she’s talking about the Grimm.”

"WHAT!?" They all shouted.

"Why would the Grimm be attacking the town!?" Blake asked shocked.

"Whoever is doing this, must have a reason." Brandon said.

“Let’s investigate this shall we?” Weiss said. As Brandon, Tai and Ink headed out the door, team RWBY grabbed their weapons and ran out of the library.

They all followed Brandon and came to the edge of town, seeing around thirty Beowolves including the Alpha.

The Alpha was covered in more bone-like armor and spines than the typical specimen. It has a more angular skull, larger teeth and sharp triangular ears.

The others started to slowly come forward, ready to fight.

"Are they seriously going to attack the town?" Tai asked shocked.

"Pretty much" Brandon looked back at the others. "Twilight, I need you and the others to warn the ponies to stay inside their homes and out of the Grimm’s sights. We’ll handle this."

"But you guys will get killed!" Twilight said.

Ruby looked Twilight. “Don’t worry about us, just focus on making sure everyone stays inside.”

Twilight was about to protest even more, but she felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked back and saw Tai, who looked at her. “I know you are worried about them, but right now we need to get everyone inside.”

“Let’s do this.” Yang said, activating her Ember Celica’s.

Ruby began to take out her Crescent Rose and began to aim. She then fired a few shots at multiple Grimm, but a Beowolf from the back lunged at Ruby from behind, hoping it would land an attack.

Brandon saw this coming and slashed his sword with a horizontal slash. The sword slashed clean through the Beowolf and it fell to the floor.

“You know, it’s weird that these creatures came from your universe and now they ended up here somehow.” Brandon exclaimed.

Brandon raised his sword with right hand and did a downward slash on another Beowolf.

“It seems to me like someone or something let them in here on purpose. Not only that, but they shouldn’t even be here in the first place.” Ink said sternly.

The five Beowolves circled Brandon and lunged at him with open jaws. Soon, Brandon went all out and slashed his sword in different directions, killing all of them.

Brandon made his sword disappear, only to summon his two pistols and aimed at the seven Grimm charging at him. As his fingers were pulling on the triggers, more Grimm began to fall on the ground as they were being shot.

Yang pushed her legs to carry her faster than ever before as she pulled back her left gauntlet behind herself. With a crack, the Ember Celica’s left gauntlet fired, while her left fist made contact with it’s face.

The Impact sent the Grimm flying at Ruby, who then sliced the Grimm in half with her scythe. “But why this place, surely there must be a reason?” Ruby asked.

As another one approached her, Yang threw a few jabs and crosses on it’s body. She then finished the creature by uppercutting it’s head off. “Well whoever is doing this, they must be stopped at once.”

Blake took out Gambol Shroud, which collapsed the weapon into its pistol form, and aimed the sights at the beowolf. Without hesitation, Blake pulled the trigger rapid fire.

The beowolf roared as the bullets embedded into it’s body. Another one lowered its head and charged with a mighty roar. Blake fired off more shots before the beast slammed into her.

A shadow then vanished from where Blake stood as she jumped into the air. Using another shadow, Blake propelled herself onto the back of the beowolf.

Blake took Gambol Shroud and unfolded the blade. With wild abandon Blake began to slash at the neck of the monster.

Ink brought out his paintbrush and whacked another beowolf on the side of it’s head, knocking it onto the ground. Ink then noticed the Alpha was headed straight to the town. This made Ink very worried and made him press his brush on the ground.

The Alpha was immediately had all of it’s legs grabbed by four pink hands. It noticed this and tried to break free, but to no avail.

Brandon got near the creature and pointed one of his pistols on the side of it’s head.

*BANG*

The alpha’s head was completely blown off and it began to turn into dust. As it was disintegrating, Brandon couldn’t help but wonder if this Alpha was supposed to be tough or not.

Brandon began to notice the rest of the Beowolves were getting killed by team RWBY at the process. As the last one was sliced in half by Ruby, an explosion happened in town.

As everyone looked, this made them super worried about the ponies living there. “This is bad, we need to find Twilight and the others fast.”

Brandon and the others immediately ran to the explosion, praying that the explosion hasn’t harmed these ponies.

Twilight and the others were making sure that they were inside their homes. She told and warned everypony to stay inside, doors and windows closed. They didn’t want anypony to get hurt until the creatures are here gone.

Twilight even managed to alert princess Celestia about this situation. The princess replied back, saying that she will investigate this while bringing a few guards along.

Tai on the hand, made sure that the whole town was clear of any ponies around. He was about to regroup with the mane six, but then was cut off by a person trying to slice him with his claw.

Tai immediately dodged the claw attack and did a backflip away from his attacker. He landed on the ground and looked at his opponent in front of him.

A masked man with blond hair tied up to a pony tail and blue eyes, brandishing a three-pronged, razor sharp claw gauntlet. His outfit had a white shirt, red sash around his waist, blue pants with yellow stripes on the sides, and brown shoes with white socks.

“Tsk, tsk,” the masked man chastised. “That was quite an ugly thing of you to do to those monsters.”

Tai eyes widened as he recognized who this person is. “You’re Vega. One of Bison’s men.” He said pointing.

“I’m surprised that you managed to know my name. Unlike these filthy animals, especially that white unicorn.”

Rarity immediately got offended by those words and got angry. "How dare you call us filthy animals! You sir, are the most disrespectful, most drab newcomer I have met"

Vega immediately laughed on how ridiculous the unicorn was trying to get back at him.

Rainbow looked at him angrily. “What’s so funny.”

Vega looked at the rainbow pegasus. “Because your friend is only making a fool out of herself.” He then whipped his claw to his side. “And while I would love to teach homely creatures such as yourselves their place, I wouldn’t want to dirty my claw with the blood of the lower-class.”

“You sir have no right to insult us, you repugnant beast!?”

“Insolent urchin! You would call me repugnant!?” Vega snarled. “I’ll make you regret saying those words.”

He pulled out a detonator from his left pocket and pressed.

Tai eyes widened even more as he knew what was going to happen.

“Don’t!” He immediately did a flying kick as he shouted.

Vega pressed the button, causing one of the buildings to explode. He did a back flip, dodging the flying kick in the process.

Twilight and the others were horrified at the moment. How could this human be so capable of doing something like this?

Tai looked at the ponies. “Quick, find out if anyone is still alive.”

“What about him?” Applejack asked, pointing at Vega.

“I’ll handle this son of a bitch right here.” He said angrily, while cracking his knuckles.

As the ponies left to find any survivors, Vega began to raise his claw close to his face, while getting into his battle stance. “Encuentro tu sufrimiento...exquisito(I find your suffering...exquisite)” He said in Spanish.

Tai got into his fighting stance and growled at him.

Vega began to leap towards the wall of the building and kick-jumped off of it high into the air and towards his opponent. He angles himself upside-down and spreads his arms out like wings, slashing viciously at his opponent.

Tai immediately dodged that attack. As Vega landed on the ground, he did a follow up attack with a spin and unleashes a slashing attack with his claw.

That however was interrupted when Brandon blocked the attack with his sword. He then did a spinning back kick on Vega’s stomach.

Vega first performs a upward slash, then follows up with a downward slash, and ends with a spinning slash.

Brandon managed to dodge the first two, but got clawed in the chest by the third one. As he covered his chest with his hand, he felt the claw mark cuts on his trench coat.

Vega slashed his claw again, but this time Brandon grabbed his arm with his right hand. As his sword disappeared, he then kneed him in the gut and threw a left cross in the face.

Vega then delivered a horizontal slash toward Brandon, but didn’t notice a purple flash on his claw made it disappear. He looked around to find it, but didn’t know where it was.

He then got punched in the face by Tai, lucky enough that his mask protected it. He then dodged away from Tai and Brandon.

Brandon stared at him angrily, as if he knew something about the Grimm. This made him began to get into his fighting stance. “I don’t know what you’re doing here or how you even got here, but I don’t appreciate guys who are destroying this town. Especially A-holes who wears masks.”

Vega got back into his fighting stance and stared at both of them with murderous intent.

Vega first performs a short, fingertip thrust, followed by a roundhouse kick and ends the combination with a spinning swipe.

Brandon reflected the thrust away from him, managed to duck under the roundhouse kick, and blocked the swipe. He then began to throw a flurry of punches, followed by a straight left kick, an axe kick, a low right kick, and spinning hook kick.

This made Vega completely fall down after that hook kick to the face, knocking him on the ground completely. As Brandon and Tai were focused on Vega, a hooded figure came out of nowhere with a Katana.

He then raised his Katana with both hands and slashed downwards. Luckily however, Ink blocked the attack behind Brandon with his paintbrush. He then did a spinning back kick to his attacker’s face.

As he felt the contact with hooded figure’s face, he stumbled backwards. He then charged at Ink with his katana in a tight grip.

His sword reached for him but was blocked by Weiss’s Myrtenaster. The blades clanged together and the hooded figure stumbled backwards. Weiss pressed and thrust her weapon forward, the tip of her blade stabbing the air as the attacker jumped to her right.

He swung his sword at Weiss, but Weiss ducked and rolled to the side just in time for a sword to strike her.

The barrel of Myrtenaster’s revolver spun and Weiss pointed her weapon. Dust shot out from the blade’s tip. The hooded figure let out a pained yell as his body from the neck down was suddenly encased in freezing ice.

Weiss heard a groan from Vega and saw him beginning to stand. She walked over to him with her blade pointed at him. “Stay down.” She ordered with a low voice. Vega glared at her, but didn’t notice him smirking.

Vega performs a handspring back flip to further distance himself from his opponent.

As Ink was about to take down Vega again, he saw a terrifying figure. He was tall and thin, almost skeletal. He had a pale face with no nose, but two stretched holes like those of a skull. He was completely bald, and had a sharp chin. His grin was crooked and evil, and his dark grey eyes.

He saw Weiss staring at him with concern. Same thing with Brandon and Tai, who both had their guards up.

Blake and Yang joined in the group, only for both to see this horrific being in the middle of the town. They immediately were about to engage with the enemies, while being cautious with their distance.

The figure raised his wand. Ink immediately tackled Weiss to the ground, avoiding a pale green beam that shot from his wand.

Yang pulled back her left gauntlet and fired a kinetic shot at the pale figure. The guy then shot a beam at the blast, exploding it at process. He then looked at them unamused.

Brandon summoned his sword in his left hand, shining as he rotated it. He knew he was in for something big. The sharp end of the blade was pointed toward the figure. “Who the fuck are you supposed to be?”

“Who I am doesn’t matter to you or anyone else here. I will however, eliminate any pest that stands in my.” He threatened.

Tai looked at him angrily. “Get lost, you Voldemort ripoff. No one wants you harming others anyway.” He then crossed his arms.

The pale figure grinned after that insult. “Oh look how far the Bruce Lee wannabe has fallen.”

Tai got confused about what he meant, but was still angry. “The hell are you getting at!?” He asked.

“I’m talking about the one kid, who’s mother killed her own husband. Not realizing how stupid she really is.”

Brandon and everyone else was immediately thrown off by this information that they just herd. Brandon looked at Tai concerned, “Tai what’s he talking about?”

The pale figure looked at Brandon while still grinning. “What a surprise. You guys became friends without him telling you anything at all.” He said. “His mother killed his own father after he was investigating something that he shouldn’t have, and yet he acts all carefree like nothing happened.”

“That’s not true!” He said.

“You came along with these fools and now are going to end up dead....how unlucky of you.” He then summoned Grimm out of nowhere with a twirl off his wand.

This Grimm however looked like more of a Griffon. It has the head, wings and talons of a large predatory bird and the rear legs, tail and body of a lion or tiger. It has black fur and feathers, with white bone-like spines on its body, including a row of bony spikes on its wings, as well as a white birdlike skull. On its head, it has a bone-white beak and four red eyes, along with gray webbing on the sides of its beak.

“Go my creatures, kill them all.” He ordered.

The three Griffons then started walking towards the humans and skeleton. “I don’t believe this, he’s controlling the Grimm!?” Blake said shocked.

Ink began to pull out his paintbrush and looked at Tai, who was uneasy about what was going on.

“Tai move!” He exclaimed.

Ink whacked one of the Griffons on the side of it’s head, knocking it onto the ground. He then looked at the other two, “This is bad. If he is controlling the Grimm, then he must be the one who planned this.” He stated.

As Brandon and Ink were distracted, Vega appeared behind Brandon and swept his legs. Brandon’s body was then magically pulled down, making his body face down to the ground.

Ink got his legs swept by the hooded figure and was punched down to the ground, his body facing down.

As soon as they were knocked down, Vega and the hooded figure both put their left foots on their backs. They were making sure that they don’t escape or anything.

Suddenly Vega’s claw magically appeared back on his hand again, and was pointed at Brandon.

“Grrr...you got to be kidding me.” Ink said angrily, while the hooded figure took off his cloak. Brandon looked at him, only to realize that he knew who he was looking for this whole time.

“Daniel!?”

The man that was now Daniel Blaze, pointed his sword at his back. The blade itself was made not out of a metal, but instead it was made out of a crystal compound and a black stone edge.

While Weiss, Blake and Yang were dealing with the Grimm that appeared, The pale figure looked at Tai with a stupid grin on his face.

“I bet you guys came here on a stupid whim and ended up like this. Isn’t that right?” He said.

“Fuck you, you got no right to know my Information.”

“What a worthless piece of scum, getting all potty mouth with me so quickly...how dare you try and think you can stop me.” He said smugly. “Have you forgotten how your mother was sentenced to prison for murdering your father.”

Tai looked down and angrily slammed his fists into the ground, while kneeling down. “She didn’t Murder him-she loved him with all her heart!” He said angrily. “Someone framed her!”

“That father of yours was hopeless.” Valkaris spat. “Had he not interfere my plans with his investigations, I wouldn’t have hire someone to kill him in the first place.”

Tai looked at him surprised and angry. “YOU DID WHAT!?” He shouted.

“Do you want me to kill your mother too? It’s not like anyone would remember her!” He said.

Tai couldn’t believe what he was hearing. The fact that his father died by the hands of this guy. Not only that but with his mother in jail, this meant that the police arrested her for a crime she didn’t even do.

“Damnit... I can’t believe this.” Tai Hung his head in shame while still kneeling. “Not only is my mother in jail, but my father was killed by this jackass.”

Ink felt sad about what happened to Tai. “So that’s what...”

Ink then felt the weight of Daniel’s foot on his back, being pressed harder. The figure then looked at Tai again after he looked at Ink.

“Once these two are dealt with, your next.” He said.

He began to laugh as he felt victorious against his enemies.

“Don’t let this asshole win!” Brandon said.

After Tai heard that, he looked at the pale figure sternly. “You’re right.” He said. “My parents that supported me were taken by him...I’ll never get them back.”

“Stay there and watch.” He said. “Look on as these pathetic fools died being a hero because they sided with trash like you.”

To that moment, Tai slowly stood up and looked at him angrily. He clenched his hands into fists. “No...that’s what you are...all you think about is using people for your own sick desire...your the pathetic one!” He said.

The pale figure looked at both Daniel and Vega. “What are you guys doing? Silence him!”

Tai then pointed his finger at him. “STOP LOOKING DOWN ON US WITH THAT STUPID SMILE ON YOUR FACE!” He shouted.

“You made me wait quite a while”

Tai then felt the pain with the words in his head and fell to the ground.

"Now tell me, now that his evil deeds has been laid out before you, why not seek the power you need and form a pact."

Tai struggled slowly to a kneeling position, but the splitting pain in his head just wouldn't let up, sending him back down. The voice didn't stop either.

"Since so many others like him treat you like this, why not summon your inner dragon and wreak havoc?"

Tai then realized that the voice sounded almost like...

"The “other you” who exists desires this more. There is no turning back...let the power of dragon spirit reside in you henceforth!"

Tai then saw a yellow opal gemstone that magically appeared and floated in front of his face.

“Hmpt. ¿qué puede hacer ... estar allí y ver!(hmpt. what can you do...stand there and watch!)” Vega said in Spanish.

Tai immediately Crushed it with his hands, causing it to break. Then as soon as it happened, he immediately screamed in frustration while being fully engulfed in blue flames, the force of which either knocked the enemies back or forced them to maintain distance for the moment.

Weiss, Blake and Yang completely noticed this and were immediately shocked by what they saw. “What’s going on?” Weiss asked.

After a few agonizingly long seconds, the flames partially cleared, revealing Tai standing in the same spot. He was shirtless, wearing golden yellow jogging pants with black and white lines. He gains a pair of red sneakers and a tail on his red sash. He also has black wristbands.

He looked at the enemies with a grin his face. As Vega got up, he was deeply concerned with this new appearance. “What is this?” He said.

Tai grinned as he looked at his new appearance. “Right on...wassup, Bruce Lee...this fucking rocks!” He exclaimed.

Ink and Brandon immediately got up after the two guys were off their backs. “Now that I have this power, it’s time for payback.”

Tai began to crack his knuckles and got into his fighting stance along with the others close to him. “Bring it!” He taunted.

“Let’s take them down, but whatever you do don’t kill Daniel. He may seem powerful, but he’s being possessed.” Brandon informed.

Vega immediately got into his fighting stance, while Daniel got into his battle stance with his katana.

That however was interrupted when the pale man got shot in the left leg by a sniper. He grunted in pain as he felt stinging pain inside. As he looked up, he noticed Brandon standing in front of him.

He stood in place, not flinching or even moving. He then reflected the pale man’s wand away from him, and started throwing fast jabs at his body. He then finished with a uppercut to the face, and threw a straight punch to the body sending him flying backwards.

Vega began to leap towards the wall of the building while kneeing the pale man and kick-jumped off of it high into the air and towards his opponent who was airborne. He then grabs his opponent around the waist and slams him head-first into the ground.

As the pale figure got up, he started looking at Vega. “Why would you do something like that?”

“Simple, you’re too ugly not to put you out of your misery.” He said.

“Yeah!”

The pale man then looked at Tai, who smacked him in the side of the face with one of his 3/4 X 21 titanium self defense batons.

After he felt the impact of the Baton, he then rubbed the side of his face and looked at Tai with anger in his eyes. “HOW DARE YOU ATTACK ME LIKE THAT, THAT REALLY HURT!”

“Good, because that’s what you deserve for harming me and my family!” Tai said.

He then swung his batons at his body and his face.

The pale figure leaped backwards away from Tai. He then began to wave his wand, summoning more Grimm to attack Weiss, Blake and Yang.

As the rest of the Grimm charged at Tai, he summoned two SMG’s. He aimed at all the Grimm as his fingers were pulling on the triggers, killing more of them as they make a loud thud on the ground.

He was then caught off guard by Daniel charging at him with his katana gripped tightly. Tai began blocking all the attacks, while Daniel was swinging his weapon in every direction.

As the man was about to shoot another beam at Tai, Vega threw a rose at high velocity towards the pale man. After it hits him in the face, he charges behind it and delivers a series of brutal slashes at the pale man.

Vega then jumps in the air. After doing that, he dives into his opponent and attacks them with his claw before backflipping them into the air. He then plunges his claw into his back and leaps upwards with the opponent, ending with a vertical slash as he laughs maniacally. Vega gracefully falls on his feet and sadistically bows.

The pale man fell on the ground, dropping his wand in the process. He then looked at Vega with a mix of confusion and anger.

“I thought you were on my side!?” The pale man said.

“Did you really think that I was on your side? You are only a ugly man, who turned into a monster just for power.”

Vega immediately felt pink paint on his body, covering his arms and legs. He then noticed that the paint turned into black chains around him, wrapping him up tightly.

The pale man immediately grabbed his wand and shot another magical beam at Vega, hitting him at the process.

He immediately got up and walked towards Vega with a scowl on his face. “HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT TO ME!”

He then raised his wand and shot another beam at him. Vega scream in pain as he felt a painful shock, it was loud enough for everyone to here.

Brandon immediately looked at this, shocked and surprised at the same time. He couldn’t believe that Vega was getting hurt by this Voldemort wannabe.

Brandon immediately summoned his sword and charged at him.

As the pale figure was about to raise his wand again, Brandon sliced his right arm with the wand in his hand, which then fell on the ground.

The pale figure screamed in pain as his arm was cut off. As he was paying to his cut off hand, Tai did a side kick in the stomach and then did a somersault kick in the face.

He then fell on the ground, holding his chopped off arm with his left hand as he winced in pain.

“That’s it, I’m going to kill all of you!”

“That’s enough, Valkaris. No more killing under your name.”

Everyone including Vega looked at not one but more guys in hooded cloaks. They looked mysterious since they were hiding their faces.

Everyone then looked at The pale man, or Valkaris as one of the hooded figures mentioned and pointed their weapons at him. “Look pal we don’t know who you are, but we won’t let you harm these ponies.” Brandon said sternly.

“You will regret that!” Valkaris spat, as he magically Vanished.

As everyone then put away their weapons, Ruby and the mane six appeared out of nowhere. Brandon and the others noticed them with concern on their faces. “Who was that guy, and what did he want?” Ruby asked.

“That was no ordinary guy. He was a past member of the order that protects the world, used to be called William Moore. But now he goes by the name Lord Valkaris.”

Brandon immediately got confused about all the information the man said to him. He then looked at him suspiciously. “Excuse me for asking, but who are all of you again?”

Author's Note

Hey guys, back at it again with another chapter.
