Advertisement
After 3 hours the group made it to Beacon. Despite that Ajay have seen giant Forerunner Structures before with some even floating but still he impressed about tower at Beacon. They walk through the hallways, with most of the students look at Ajay, with either awe or in a bit horrified.
Ajay: "Why are they oh right, they never seen a Promethean Knight before."
Yang: "Yup."
Ajay: "Hmm anyways how in the galaxy did you fought off many of those creatures, I mean how you so skilled in fighting them off?"
Ruby: "We are Huntresses!"
Weiss: "(sighs) Huntress in Training. We studying here as a next generation of Huntsmen and Huntresses to become protectors of the world against our sworn enemy, the Creatures of the Grimm."
Ajay: "What are they and why do they attack?"
Weiss: "They the creatures of darkness, soulless monsters with only one goal, Humans and Faunus alike to extinction, which they almost did in fact until the discovery of Dust. And they can sense negative emotions and they are attracted to it."
Ajay: "So if someone were to panic, it would become chaos."
Weiss: "That is correct, there also different forms of Grimm besides the Beowolves we fought at Emerald Forest. There are Ursas, Creeps, Deathstalkers, Nevermores, and Goliaths. You may want to avoid the latter though."
Ajay: "That is interesting but you mentioned dust, what is it and how you able drive the Grimm off with it?"
Weiss: "Dust is our source of energy in Remnant, it is used in cars, airships, machinery, everything, even our weapons used dust as well. They come in forms of crystal and powder or simply "Dust". There also are different types of dust. fire, ice, wind, lightning, etc. And before you ask no, dust loses power when outside the atmosphere of our planet."
Ajay: "Shameful but also very interesting. Hmm Ruby how did you even survive the attack from that Beowulf or even more questionable, is how you did get a claw wound from that?"
Ruby: "Oh that was Aura protecting me."

Ajay: "Aura?"
Weiss: "Aura is a manifestation of our soul. We can use it to absorb hits that could have been fatal, and heal wounds as well. When trained right, it can be used in other ways as well. But once it depleted we will very vulnerable.
Ajay: "So basically a natural personal energy shielding with some bit of healing purposes. But Ruby how did you turn into... petals?"
Ruby: "Oh that my semblance, You see, semblances are like superpowers for everyone who can use Aura. Mine is speed, I can turn in Rose petals and run super fast. Weiss's semblance allows her to summon her glyphs, Blake can leave behind her shadow clones so that they can take hit or act as decoy, while Yang absorbs hits and punch harder."
Yang: "Or if someone cut my hair off I make sure he is good as dead."
Ajay: "... what?"
Ruby: "Yang's semblance also activates when she angry."
Ajay: "So basically rage mode, got it. Duly noted."
Ruby: "Yup. Say that is a weapon floating on your right leg?"
Ajay: "Yes, that is a Z-130 Directed Energy Automatic Weapon"
Ruby: "...What?"
Ajay: "Or is it simply known as a Suppressor, due to its fast rate of fire."
Ruby drools with starry eyes.
Ajay: "Heh, weapons freak."
Ruby: "Hey!"
Ruby pouted.
They reached to the elevator and went up. After a minute of waiting, the elevator doors open to reveal a man sitting in his desk with a woman standing next to him.
Ajay: "I assuming you are Professor Ozpin."
Ozpin: "Yes I am. I the headmaster of Beacon Academy, this is here is my assistant and combat instructor, Professor Glynda Goodwitch.
Glynda: "So what are you?"
Ajay: "I am Ajay Blue Light, a Promethean Knight."
Glynda: "And why are you here."
Ajay: "I was pulled into a portal after some kinda of earthquake hit the facility I was in."
Glynda: "Are you sure you here by accident?"
Ajay: "Well sort of."
Ozpin: "Now now Glynda, it is not time be so hostile to our guest here. Ajay what did you do before you arrived here?"

Ajay: "After or before I was pulled into the portal?"
Ozpin: "Before."
Ajay: "I was stationed on Forerunner Shield World designated Shield 0001 or known as Requiem, along with other Promethean Knights."
Ozpin: "How long were you stationed for?"
Ajay: "About like 100,000 years."
RWBY and Glynda: "WHAT?!"
Weiss: "How are you even still operating after all those years?!"
Ajay: "Honestly I don't really have a clue. Kinda amaze me that I hadn't lost my sanity from that."
Ozpin: "What the reason you were stationed in there?"
Ajay: "To prevent anyone from awakening the Didact and freeing him in Cryptum."
Ruby: "Cr-Crypt-um?"
Ajay: "Basically, the Didact was placed inside a giant ball which forces him to mediate."
Ruby: "Why would anyone do that?!"
Ajay: "He was trapped in there due to his crime that will never be forgiven."
Ozpin: "What crimes did this Didact commited."
Ajay: "..."
Weiss: "Ajay?"
Ajay: "... I was one of victims in that crime the Didact had commited."
Glynda: "What do you mean?"
Ajay: "... I was once... A Human..."
Everyone eyes, including Ozpin, widen.
Glynda: "What?"
Ajay: "The first Promethean Knights were the original Prometheans, high ranking Forerunner warrior servants. But they were short on numbers, so he turned on the humans, specifically my tribe. He composed them forcefully."
Everyone was shocked.
Weiss: "Wait, what do you mean by 'composed'?"
Ajay: "The Composer was a forerunner device intended to bridge the physical and digital realms, thereby making the Forerunners immortal. However, the device was flawed: the process was not only extremely painful but irreversible, meaning the stored personalities could never be returned to biological form"
Ruby: "What?"
Ajay: "It converts living organism into AIs"
Ruby: "What does AI means?"
Weiss: "It means Artificial Intelligence you dunce."
Ajay: "When used on an organism, it painfully burns away the body layer by layer until that organism's "essence" is collected, leaving nothing but a pile of ash..."
RWBY: *gasps*
Ajay: "The Didact... He composed us... He turned us... Into nothing but mindless monsters... I was only 13 when it happened..."
Everyone was shocked and quiet.
Ajay: "But before he could continue his grudge againist humanity, he was stopped and incapacitated by his wife, The Librarian, who was outraged by the actions that his husband had commited. And the Didact was putted into the Cryptum. After he was imprisoned, The Librarian had his control on us transferred to her so that she had us guarded the Didact's imprisonment. But after those 100,000 years, a alliance of species invaded out of nowhere. From what I heard from their chatter, they called themselves the Covenant, and I learned that their objective was for awake the Didact... In the end I guess they did."
Yang: "So he still on the loose."
Ajay: "During the Didact's imprisonment, I was approached by the Librarian...for whatever reasons She gave me a sentient mind, a immunity from control incase the Didact was free... and my memories... I was shocked...devastated... I could never forget of what he had done to me... My current form..."
A Tear formed on Ruby's left eye
Ajay: "... My skull."
Ajay suddenly open his faceplate, revealing his human skull, surprising everyone but Ozpin.
Ajay: *closes facepalm* "They are reminders and a scar of what the Didact did to me. A Monster..."
He suddenly felt something and looked down to see Ruby hugging him.
Ajay: "Ruby what are yo-"
Weiss, Blake, and Yang joins the hug.
Ruby: "No matter what you are..."
Weiss: "No matter what you think you are..."
Blake: "You not a monster..."
Yang: "You just a poor human being that lost everything you loved..."
The Promethean Knight was shocked.
Ajay: "... Thank you... for supporting..."
Ruby: "That what friends are for."
Ozpin: "So Ajay."
Team RWBY breaks off the hug as Ajay look towards the Headmaster.
Ajay: "Yes?"
Ozpin: "I have a proposal for you... Would you like to join my school?"
Ajay: "... What?"
Glynda: "What?! Ozpin you can's be that serious?!"
Ozpin: "Glynda, I know what I doing, I am simply offering Ajay second chance of life."
Ajay: "Well... I honestly have no where to go, and I have absolutely no knowledge on this world. So I accept."
Ozpin: "Exactly." (thoughts) 'Definitely a interesting year.'
