Escape From Remnant: A Tarkov X RWBY Crossover

Chapter 48: Long Road Ahead

Akula, Ruby, and Weiss all sat down onto different seat placements respectively after stripping themselves of their weapons. Akula occupied a wooden chair while Ruby and Weiss took a beat-up beige sofa. Moron once done with the fireplace, moved to tie Neo with some rope that he'd had dangling on the side of his transofrmer bag. The rope was bound around her whole upper body, including arms, not like it took that much given her petite body.

"Anyone got anything else? I think her legs may be a problem... I've seen her fight before." Moron questioned the others currently in the living room, getting up from his lowered stance from tying her up to his own 2 feet.

"Aye... I think I have something... I'll dig in my bag..." Akula responded. He swung his pack around to the front and onto his lap, beginning to dig for the desired contents. It was a messy affair. He only got so little time to stuff whatever he needed or wanted into the bag from the dorm before they had to leave in a hurry.

Pushing side random objects with his hand, at the bottom floor of the bag was a zip tie cuff that had sat unused since the operation to bust that nightclub. Its original white colour was now more of a dirty grey, having had grime and dirt stick to the crevices. No matter, Akula zip tied her legs up completely so that she wouldn't be able to use them in a fight, effectively giving her the motor functions of an earthworm.

"That's good now...I'm going to go and put my shit away." Moron said after giving an inspection to the tied up Neo. He quickly disappeared into the room thereafter, leaving the 3 of them alone in the living room. A silence fell upon the room except for the crackling of the fireplace wood burning ton charred ash.

"Fuck...we're so fucked..." Akula let out as he sat back down rubbing his forehead.

"What's happening...? What's going on, Akula...?" Ruby inquired, now getting the chance to ask so. The events of the past few hours...it must've been some sort of fever dream. A delirious series of events.

"Well... you are in our world now." Akula feeling sorry for the girls answered in a soft tone, looking up and staring blankly into apparent nothingness.

"Aye, welcome to hell." Moron appears again from the room. The door to it swung open and behind him are Texas and Floridaman. All 3 men had stripped themselves of their equipment, leaving themselves only in their top and bottoms. They all sat down on the mismatched chairs, and now the scene has been set for some much needed exposition.

"Indeed, you are in our world...we are or used to be mercernaries here. Akula wasn't, but we are." Texas explained.

"We know... Katya told us. Just we didn't know what to do about it or if it was all a lie..." Everyone was surprised at Ruby's statement, Katya just gave away their secrets like that? In retrospect, it was a pretty useless piece of information given that nobody could really exploit it to their advantage given its unbelievablity plus Ozpin knew from the get go but still. It's not something you throw around just like that.

"What did she say exactly?" Moron leant forward asking.

"S-she explained something about you a-a-all being e-enemies and Akula being different...and about T-Terragroup too... how t-they were making something..." Weiss spoke up stuttering between her words nervously.

"Nothing else? Because that's pretty basic information everyone knows in this world. That is this world." Floridaman spoke up.

"Shit, how did we end up here with girls... this place isn't where you'd wanna be as a girl..." Moron stated.

"It wouldn't be like this if you didn't fuck with the device!!!" Texas snaps at Floridaman spitting venom in his voice.

"He saved us from Cinder!" Ruby shouts in defence of Floridaman.
