Anakin and his adventures in Remnant: A RWBY Story

A Trip Outside

JNPR, SCRL, and RWBY all stand next to one another with their respective partners waiting for the Ozpin to get on stage. The group soon found themselves laughing when Penny had surprised Crimson by tackling him in a hug.

Soon Ozpin approaches the stage and stops in front of the mic. He gives it a slight tap getting everyone's attention. "Today we stand together, united. Mistral. Atlas. Vacuo. Vale. The four Kingdoms of Remnant." He was right. It wasn't just the students from Beacon here it was from all academy's, from all four kingdoms.

"On this day," Ozpin starts. "nearly eighty years ago, the largest war in recorded history came to an end. It was a war of ignorance, of greed, and of oppression. A war that was about much more than where borders fell or who traded with whom, but about the very idea of individualism itself." He explains.

"We fought for countless reasons, one of which being the destruction of all forms of art and self-expression. And as most of you are well aware, that was something many could not stand for. As a result, those who opposed this tyranny began naming their children after one of the core aspects of art itself: color." This had gained Anakin and Rex's full attention. They had wondered about that but never said anything.

"It was their way to demonstrate that not only would they refuse to tolerate this oppression, but neither were the generations to come. And it was a trend that has held to this very day. We encourage individuality, expressionism, and unity through diversity. As I have said, today we stand together, united. But this bond cannot exist without effort. Which is why today, while the rest of the world celebrates peace, Huntsmen and Huntresses will work to uphold it. As first year students, you will be tasked with shadowing a professional Huntsman or Huntress on a mission. Some of you may be taken out of the Kingdom for several days. Others may work within the walls for the rest of the week. But no matter which path you choose, remember to be safe, remember your training, and remember to do your very best." With that Ozpin closes with smile seeing the inspired looks across the room.

"This is great." Ruby says. "All we have to do is shadow a Huntsmen working in southeast Vale."

Anakin shares a look with Rex before looking to Ruby. "No." He says. That got everyone in their group's attention.

Blake glares lightly. "What do you mean no?"

"I said no." Anakin states. "Your teams aren't going. Not while Dooku and some other Sith is involved. My team will go." Anakin says. To this Blake's look softens.

"You don't have to go alone." Blake says.

"No, but I don't want to put you or your team near that man. Back in the docks you were lucky I was there. If I wasn't?" Anakin shakes his head. "I can't think about it."

Rex pats his friends shoulder. "It'll be fine. We'll make sure to put a stop to this." He then turns to RWBY, Penny and JNPR. "If you want to help, then stick close to the city that way If something happens you'll be there." The teams and friend just nod.

"Well," Blake starts. "If your looking for a mission you should check search and destroy." She suggests.

"Yes." Pyrrha agrees. "And if we want to stay close to the kingdom we," she gestures to her team, Penny, and RWBY. "Should check Kingdom Defense." The friends agree and head to the mission sign up holograms.

"There." Crimson points out "Quadrant 5 needs Grimm cleared."

"Well it's in the southeast." Blake smiles.

Anakin smirks and and taps the mission and types in his teams name to sign up. It blinks red however before showing red text saying 'first years are not allowed'.
