Vale Docks

Y/N had managed to get Blake and the others away from the docks were a new type of grimm appeared after they made Roman Torchwick and his white fang goons retreat. With the others out of harm's way Y/N jumped down to face the creature. It roared at him as Y/N changed his arm into a railgun.

I wasn't going to let this new grimm cause a lot of damage. I didn't know how this grimm operated from the last grimm. I was going to play it safe and not let the creature get a chance to attack. Immediately I fired a shot from my railgun right at the creature's head. There was a loud explosion and a lot of smoke. I didn't sense any life signs from the smoke. When it cleared I saw the grimm dead with its head missing and large chunk of it's body destroyed.

"That was easy" I say to myself as I walk away from the dead grimm. That's when it happened I picked up a life sign coming from where the grimm was. I turned around and saw that the grimm was healing itself. It's body fixed itself as a new head appeared. "Damnit why can't things ever be easy once in awhile" I say to myself.

The grimm was angry now and it began to fire rapidly at me. Luckily I was quick enough and I jumped behind some crates. The grimm saw this and began to fire on the crate I was behind. Any minute now and I would become Swiss cheese. I began to charge up a shot with my railgun. In an instant I rolled away from the crate as it got destroyed. Before the grimm could fire at me I fired my railgun right at the center of it's chest.

With the grimm now on the ground I ran at it charging another shot. Before the grimm could start regenerating I jumped on it and pointed my railgun right on its face. With that I fired my railgun sending me in the air while the grimm's body fell down through the broken dock into the ocean.

It may of taken a little bit longer then I had planned but the grimm was dead. I had a feeling that Goodwitch be a bit upset that there wasn't going to be a body for her and Ozpin to study. I began to leave the docks but then I heard it. A stirring in the water something was down there and it wasn't good. Before I knew it a large rusted anchor came out of the water and was in the air.

The anchor landed down in front of me then began to get pulled back. I tried to get out of the way but the anchor but it was to late. I ended up getting pulled down into the waters of the bay. My body instantly began to change to allow me to breathe underwater. I was still getting pulled deeper and deeper down.

I could see the grimm as it pulled the chain with the anchor attacked. I would of used one of my gun weapons but the water would slow down the bullets. I decided to try my saw blade hand. I managed to cut the chain freeing me from the anchor that didn't stop the grimm from trying to swim up to me. I began to shoot saw blades at the grimm.

Only a few of them hit the grimm one of them hit it in the chest. It looked as though that's where it core was. Just like the other grimm I faced in the forest this one had a core in it's body. I swam to the surface of the water and got back on to the docks. I spat water out of my mouth as I began to get and up and crawl away.

As expected the grimm wasn't dead it just jumped out of the water breaking through a new part of the docks. Where I had crawled to a found a large wooden crate. The crate read "dangerous" that meant it could be useful for me. I tore off the front of the wooden crate and found something very surprising. It was a metal box the read "Atlas Experimental Metal". Didn't know what that was but I could use whatever edge I could get.

I rammed my fist into the metal box and found that it contained a strange liquids metal. Right away it felt weird my nano machines started acting on their own. My arm became the railgun and the liquid metal began to cover it. I could feel the railgun changing and getting stronger as the metal began to alter it with my nano machines. I pulled my arm out of the crate and saw that my railgun was completely different
