Distorted Remnant: A Remake of "Distorted Reality"

Chapter 46: Search Begins

*Y/n POV*

We all walked through the forest, following whatever leads Darkrai and Neo's source gave us. Apparently Emerald, an associate of Cinder's was seen in a town not far from us, and we were heading there. Darkrai and I were leading, using our map to lead through the forest.

"Have I ever told you I love your connections?"

Darkrai looked at me with a raised eyebrow, "Our family is not normal."

"You haven't realized?"

I pointed at the map, to a point that's a few miles away from us.

"There's our point," I said, "Think we can make it tonight?"

"No way," Darkrai said, "Moon's already coming up. We should camp for the night."

"If you say so."

We turned to the rest of the group, who were panting and sweating. I raised a disappointed eyebrow, and said.

"Why the hell are you all tired?"

"We've been walking for ten hours!" Jaune yelled, "Not even we can handle that!"

"Yeah Daddy," Cresselia added, "Even I'm tired."

Mewtwo just floated easily, carrying Weiss on his back. I folded up the map and slipped it in my jacket, and sighed.

"Good news then, we're camping here tonight, set up the tents."

Everyone sighed in relief, and began to set up tents and campfires. A few minutes later, everyone was sitting around a campfire except for me, Darkrai, Mewtwo, and Lake Guardians. We were standing in an open field, and I set a few empty beer bottles on a stump across from us.

"Alright," Mewtwo said, "Try shooting them."

I pulled out Ironwood's pistol and pointed it at the bottles, pulling the trigger. The bullet flew past the bottles and struck a tree behind them.

"Okay..." Darkrai said.

"Human technology is bull shit," I growled, "They've always built inefficient and crappy tech."

"Yeah," Azelf said, "But you've gotta learn to use it if you're carrying it around with you."

"Why do you carry it around with you?" Mewtwo asked, "There's no real reason why."

"I feel like it."

"Fine by me." He said.

"Alright, let me give this a second try," I said, "Aim, breathe, fire."

I pointed the gun and squinted, lining up the cross hairs with the bottles. I slowly squeezed the trigger, sending the bullet flying out the gun and towards the bottles. It collided and the bottle exploded, sending glass shards flying across the field.

"Holy crap!" I yelled, "That was amaz-"

I was cut off, as a loud roar cut through the calm air of the forest. We all pulled out our weapons, looking around.

"What was that?" Darkrai asked, "Grimm?"

"No." I said.

Mewtwo spoke up, "Then that means..."

"It's a legendary."
