The Corruption of Remnant

The Bond

Several hours passed as the glitch was still riding on the wing. Unfortunately for it though a passenger saw it latched to the air vehicle. The witness called over a few of their friends to show them what it was. Some back away in fear and others press closer to the window to try and get a better look at it. Knowing it was spotted it detached from the bullhead and fell into the forest below it. It lands in several trees and climbs down, reattaching itself in the process. The glitched blob starts to trek through the woods in search of people and civilization. Luckily for it, it saw a city while it was falling from the sky and was walking in that direction. An hour passed and it was still on the move, but as it was slithering on the ground noises caught its attention, the sound of humans, and Grimm. Making its decision it begins going towards the sounds. The sounds get steadily louder as it gets closer and soon enough it sees two girls and three beowolfs. The glitched substance springs into action and wraps a beowolf with the black tendrils and takes its body over. The boney spikes on its back extended with the black glitch and its eyes once crimson a bright pale white. It's mouth and eyes leak the black substance and it's jaw opens wide, the teeth now longer and sharper. It's right paw grew to abnormal size and the black substance made it large and the claws more deadly. The blonde girl looks in fear and a crow quickly flew down from a tree to transform into a human, the children hadn't took notice of this.

Black hair man: Kids! Get behind me!

Blonde girl: Uncle Qrow!

The girl pulling the wagon with a surprisingly still sleeping child in it behind the man now named Qrow. Qrow swings his blade at the corrupted Grimm. It cuts through the body of the corrupted Grimm but it heals almost instantly. The corrupted Grimm swiped it's claw at Qrow knocking him backwards. The corrupted Grimm looks at the children then a low growl is heard from the beast. It turns away and looks at the two beowolfs. The corrupted beowulf charges and grabs one beowulf and swings it at the other sending it into a tree, stunning it. Using it's other claw, it grabs the other end of the beowolf he used as a bat and pulls. It easily ripped the beowolf in half and throws the body to the side and it begins to dissolve into ash. The other beowolfs finally regains it's senses and sees the beast standing over it. A Grimm being the embodiment of darkness was in fear. The corrupted beowulf opens it's jaws and bites down on the neck of the beowolf and rips it's head off it's shoulders. The body turns into ash. Qrow, who finally got up, approached the corrupted Grimm

Qrow: What the hell are you...?

The corrupt beast only stares and immediately ran into the forest.

Qrow: Wait! Damnit.

Qrow looks to the children and they were okay but asleep. He shook his head and begins to take them back home.

Meanwhile, the corrupted Grimm travels through the forest and soon sees a wall of some sort. The corrupt Grimm begins to climb up the side of the wall using it's claws and dug deep in the wall as it climbs. Reaching the top the corruption jumps out of the beowolfs body and it turns to ash. Landing on the ground, it slithers down the street and avoided any sight by human or faunus. As it enters an alley it noticed the presence of a brutally beaten boy. Now knowing that it was time to take up a host it figured this young boy will suffice. It slithers to the open and bleeding gash on his chest and enters through it. The wound closes alongside the many others. The boys eyes snap open, a pale white, but only for a moment. They change back to their normal (e/c).

(Y/n) Pov

I woke up... I'm alive!? How? I feel my chest, arms, and face to feel I no longer have the wounds. How could this happen? I stand up off the ground with a light grunt and look around the alley. I see some fresh blood on the ground, likely mine.

(Y/n): Hello? Is someone here?

I get no response and I sigh while rubbing my head. That's when I heard a very distorted voice...

(Y/n): My name is (Y/n).

I slightly smile knowing that me and Glitch were getting close quite quickly. I have a good feeling I can have him, her? Doesn't matter... As long as they are my friend.

(Y/n): We should be going. I- We gotta get home and all.

After an acknowledgement from Glitch I begin the walk home.
