Anakin and his adventures in Remnant: A RWBY Story

The Comrade

Anakin and his team are in Vale stopped in front of a restaurant named 'Living Fantasies'. Ruby and Yang had told them about the place. They had said that the owner was their uncle. So after making a vote, the group agrees by unanimous decision.

"So, this is it." Anakin deduced gesturing to the building. It was close by to 'From Dust Till Dawn' another local owned business. The same one(despite the fact neither could read the business name at the time.) Rex and Anakin had met Ruby, and their teacher Professor Goodwitch

"Well what are we waiting for?" Rex asks in excitement. "I'm starved!" Lilly laughs at the Clone's enthusiasm gently taking his hand into hers and walking with him to the establishment. Crimson and Anakin share a knowing look.

"So," Crimson starts with a raised eyebrow. "Have they ever told you why or when they got together?"

Anakin furrows his brows. "No, I think I was so caught up in everything else it just skipped my mind to pay attention to it, or even ask." Anakin puts his hand to his chin in thought with his other taking its place at his hip. I remember telling Rex to take the leap, but after that I'm not really sure. He thought.

"Maybe we could ask while we're in there?" Crimson suggests.

Anakin shrugs. "Sure. I don't see why not."

Upon entering a chime of a bell sounds and waiting at a podium up front was a woman with long black hair, a red and white waitress uniform, and bright red eyes. On her chest was a name tag stating 'Lockhart'.

"Hello and welcome to a place filled with Living Fantasies!" She says energetically. It was obviously the Catchphrase for the dinner. "A table for Four?" She assumes looking at the future Huntsman and Huntress in training.

"Yep." Anakin says.

"Right this way then." She says. She leads them to an open booth by a window. The table looked to be made of wood. Nicely polished and freshly cleaned. Crimson and Anakin were on one side with Rex and Lilly on the other. "Your waiter will be with you in just a moment." With that she leaves them with menus.

A moment passes before Lilly decides to speak up. "Anakin, how is it feeling?" She questions.

Anakin shrugs. "The phantom pains are getting better. The new arm seems to be helping with that. Though I must admit that this one is almost impossible to hide. I can't fit a glove over it to save my life." Rex snickers. "What's so funny?"

Rex snorts. "Sorry sorry, it's just... why do you need to hide it? I mean seriously, it makes you look cooler." Anakin furrows his brow in thought. After a moment he sighs.

"I guess..."Anakin is interrupted by a man with short black hair in a black uniform with his name tag partly unreadable due to scuff marks. All they could see was an O_m.

"So you must be team SCRL." The man says with a slight smile. Said group looked among one another in confusion only to be met with the man releasing a chuckle. "My Nieces told me about you four." That gets the team members to gain looks of realization.

"Your Ruby and Yang's Uncle?" Anakin asks.

"You can call me Monty." He introduces holding out his hand for a handshake. Anakin accepts. "I must say I was surprised to hear about your team getting accepted. Seems Ozpin decided to have an extra team accepted this year." The man, Monty, chuckles to himself. "Well Anakin, Rex, good luck here on Remnant." Monty winks then leaves before Anakin or Rex could say anything. A man in a similar outfit to the woman up front appears.

After ordering their food the Waiter leaves. Anakin and Rex share looks of shock.

"How did he..." Anakin halts trying to think of some kind of reason, but ultimately comes up with nothing.

Elsewhere team JNPR walk along the docks. Nora was excited as always, skipping happily next to Ren. Pyrrha and Jaune laugh lightly at the ginger haired girls antics.

"So, why are we at the docks again?" Ren asks

Pyrrha chuckles. "Jaune wanted to show us something."

"Yup!" Jaune says cheerfully. "Oh you guys are gonna love it."

Nora raises an eyebrow. "But... why is it at the docks?"

"Because Anakin and I bought it from someone. We're technically here to pick it up."

"So it's not a boat?" Nora asks in confusion.

"Nope!"

When they reach the docks they see a man standing next too an old Atlesian Knight. He was a rounder fellow with a big brown curly stash. His eyes shone like gold and his outfit gave off a vibe of professionalism.

"Welcome friends!" He greets. He had a vary strong accent that made Nora believe he was seconds away from saying comrade. "I take it your Mr Arc?"

"Are you Mr. Kransy?" Jaune butchers. The man laughs.

"Kransnyy." He corrects with a smile. He offers a handshake which Jaune graciously accepts. "Krov' Kransnyy. I assume you have the last of my payment?"

"Yup." Jaune hands over a small pouch. The man takes it and opens it to see a little hand sized spider like droid presumably made by Anakin. The man presses the head gently and it activates. It jumps around excitedly then crawls onto the mans shoulder as he laughs in glee.

"Remarkable! He really did it!" The man says. "The robot is all yours." Mr Kransnyy then hands Jaune a scroll. "Tell your friend Anakin that the Phoenix Dust Company thanks him for tor the trade. Truth be told that unit has just been sitting in storage. My Otets(father) will be most pleased to finally be rid of it."

With that the man leaves and Jaune looks to his team who all have very concerned looks. "What?" Jaune asks.

Nora leans into rens ear. "Did we just witness a illegal trade deal?" She asks with a loud whisper. Everyone heard her.

"Yeah.... Jaune was that... legal?" Pyrrha asks.

Realization floods Jaunes face. Ok, yeah this looks bad without context. He thinks. "Yes, yes it's legal. This bot is a civilian model for shops and small businesses." Jaune explains. "Unlike the military grade ones, these ones are only really good for lifting heavy objects or house demolition. They don't have guns or swords on them. It's kinda like a robot butler." Pyrrha, Ren, and Nora all sigh in relief.

"So why did you and Anakin buy this robot?" Ren asks scratching his head.

"Hey it was Anakin's idea. If you want the reason ask him."

Meanwhile Anakin and his team are leaving the dinner. Rex and Anakin were both confused still about what Monty said, but Rex's thoughts are pulled away by Lilly hugging onto his arm. He smiles and ruffles her hair slightly getting a giggle from the girl. Meanwhile Anakin and Crimson just smile at the couples antics.

"So..." Anakin starts gaining the attention of his team. "Rex? When did you and Lilly officially become a thing?" Both Rex and Lilly blush from the sudden question. Both stammer for an answer gaining a laugh from Crimson, but Anakin was able to choke his laugh down.

Finally Rex clears his throat. "W-well, after you told me to take the leap, I, well took the leap." He explains. "It wasn't that night, but when i took her on a date after the incident at the docks. Well it happened."Anakin looks to Lilly to confirm and she simply nods.

"So that's what you two were doing!" Crimson exclaims. He felt like had found the missing piece to a puzzle. "That's been bugging me for ages." The Faunus states.

Later that night JNPR and SCRL meet up in the Beacon Workshop. All we're excited and watching with interest as Anakin tinkered with the robot.

A spark fly's from were Anakin is working. "Aha! There we go." He closes a hatch and steps back. "Alright Jaune, start him up."

Jaune presses a button on the Scroll Mr Kransnyy gave him and the Robat comes to life. A red glow accents it's pitch black body. Everyone held their breath. Then... it spoke.

"Privet Comrades, i spasibo za aktivatsiyu oboznacheniya AKC-150 Alexander Pulemetchik. Chem ya mogu pomoch'?" Everyone looked frowns in confusion.

"Huh?" Jaune murmurs.

"What language was that?" Nora asks. Anakin sighs. This was going to be a long project he could already tell.
