Lightbearer (RWBY Male Reader Insert Story)

Forever Falling

(Y/N) POV
Pyrrha: Well... that certainly is something.

(Y/N): Yeah... Not exactly the easiest thing to process.

You told Pyrrha everything about the Maidens, The Relics, what you knew about silver eyes, and Salem. It wasn't really something you wanted to burden someone with, but she deserved to know.

Pyrrha: So what happened with you exactly. How do you know all this.

(Y/N): Well... I lived far south from here at a distant village. I had an average life with the best parents any one could ask for. I also lived with my older brother Jack, and my younger sister Ana. Despite being siblings, we never really fought with each other and would die for each other... literally. Any way, due to being in an isolated village, we couldn't apply for a combat school. Yet we all dreamed of being Huntsman. Although everything quickly fell apart. About 3 months ago, A day came when our village was assaulted by hundreds of Grimm, and almost nobody made it out alive. M-My parents were crushed underneath our house after it collapsed and were presumed dead on the spot. On top of that, my sister was crushed beneath the rubble, but just barely, and me and Jack could actually help her out of there. But then... the growls. The Grimm were on high speeds toward us, and there wasn't a single Huntsman around to help us. So... foolishly, I ran off to distract the Grimm, and got myself killed in the process.

Pyrrha: Oh my Oum!

(Y/N): Yup. But this is the part where the whole... 'Salem' thing comes in. You see, I somehow woke up in a dungeon of sorts. Finding out later that it was Salems' Castle. And it turns out I wasn't the only one there.

You turn to face Summer. With tears in her eyes, she nods. Although to Pyrrha, it looks like you're looking at nothing. You then face her again.

(Y/N): I met Summer Rose. The mother of Ruby and Yang.

Pyrrha: W-What? Why would she be there of all places.

(Y/N): Years ago, Summer was assigned a solo mission to assassinate Salem using her silver eyes. But the mission went wrong, and she was captured. She was then held as a slave to Salem and everyone on her side. *sigh* However, behind Salems back, she created a weapon. One infused with the power of the silver eyes, The Lightbearer.

You then summon your blade and rest it against a wall.

Pyrrha: Whoa, I never got a proper look at it... May I?

(Y/N): Sure.

Pyrrha tries picking Lightbearer up, but she can't lift it up.

Pyrrha: How... *grunts* heavy is... *grunts* this thing!

She then falls back over onto her bed.

(Y/N): Yeah... forgot to mention only I can hold it.

Pyrrha: Thats a dumb rule.

(Y/N): It is what it is. Anyway. After Summer presented the blade, the two of us... *to Summer* how do I put it?

Summer: Soul bonded I guess?

(Y/N): *back to Pyrrha* Yeah, soul bonded.

Pyrrha: Who were you talking to?

(Y/N): Summer. She's in my head, and only I can interact with her.

Pyrrha: Well... that would explain things. But what about the sword? You just pulled it out of thin air.

(Y/N): Also part of my soul. You see, after merging souls, I woke up again in the very same place I died. And somehow, I ended up getting silver eyes. After that, with my trusty sword, I cleared out all the Grimm in the village thanks to being granted years worth of combat training overnight. Later I found out that my siblings made it out, though I have no idea where they are right now. My guess is here in Vale, but I had no luck at all so far finding them.
