RWBY: Faith Restored (Book 1)

Faith Restored

All he saw was red. Trees of red that dropped down leaves of blood. He reached up and grabbed a leaf to look at it. The leaf slowly dissolved into red dust and blew away in the wind. The pale man in dark clothes stood up to look around. Trees with leaves of red that dropped onto the ground. It felt peaceful. He looked at his hands to find himself in his black formal clothing and nails long and sharp.

"Where am I..." He questioned himself. No location he scoured ever had these trees of blood. His thoughts were interrupted by a thundering roar to his right. The wind picked up and blew against his hair and cape. He walked towards the roar until he saw a blonde boy in strange clothing with white knight's armor on his chest and biceps fighting against a large bipedal creature with black fur, the frame of a bear and a white skull with red markings and red eyes. The boy... A human. The dark clothed figure growled at the sight. Another human was crawling away like a coward. He had a lot more armor with red hair and a taller build than the blonde.

He watched in hope that the dark bear will maul the boy. However, the desperation in the boy's eyes made him think differently. His blonde hair and use of a sword reminded him of... His son. Adrian...

With a growl and his claws ready, the King used his vampiric speed to grab the dark bear and rip his skull plating off then the boy sliced its head off. The man held the skull plating before it dissolved into nothing. The body itself also dissolved into a black fog before fading away.

"Thank you." Those words... Never in years would the King hear those from the species that caused him so much harm and took the only thing he ever loved away from him. He looked down at the blonde boy, due to his humongous height and he narrowed his eyes "Humans..." Before he could continue, three teen females appeared. One in a black corset and skirt with red trimmings along with a large scythe... Death's weapon. She had silver eyes and black hair with red tips. The second is a woman with long bright red hair, bright emerald eyes and armor reminiscent of the Ancient Greeks along with a circlet on her head. The last is a girl in a similar dress like the red girl,  however it was white and she had a scar over her left eye and long white hair in a side ponytail. They looked at the King with wide eyes due to his 7 to 8 feet height.

The King looked at his prey in anger and held claws out in case he'll have to rend these humans dead. The white girl held a rapier with different colors along the hilt. The short scythe wielder held her weapon in defense. The Greek girl held out her shield and spear.  The blonde boy put his hands up. "Wait stop! He helped me take out the Ursa!"

The King looked at the boy surprised. A human defending him? Where is he where a human would defend a monster like him? The King placed a hand on the boy's shoulder and looked at the girls "Where am I?"
The girl in white said in confusion "What do you mean where are you?' You're in Forever Fall." The girl with red hair looked into his eyes before saying "You're... In Remnant." The King shows no emotion but speaks "Another world... I see. Who are you all?"

The girl with the scythe spoke shyly "I-I'm Ruby Rose. Leader of Team RWBY." The King looked at Ruby with a tilted head. This girl is younger than the rest. The girl in white speaks with a sense of pride "Weiss Schnee, Heiress to the Schnee Dust Company." He narrowed his eyes. Her name is German yet they are on a whole different world. He spoke "Your name... German for White Snow." Weiss looked confused and a little offended. "German? I don't know that language." The King's suspicions were confirmed. He is on a different world. One with humans who fight in strange clothing and with strange weapons. The girl in Greek armor spoke "I am Pyrrha Nikos and that's Jaune." Her voice spoke with a kindness that he hasn't heard since Lisa... Oh Lisa.
