Hey everyone and WELCOME to the fifteenth episode of RWBY: (Genius Gamer Shadow) Ex-Aid Reader x Ruby Rose! So, just a recap of the disclaimer again, I DO NOT OWN RWBY AND I DO NOT OWN KAMEN RIDER EX-AID. RWBY is from RoosterTeeth and Kamen Rider Ex-Aid is from Toei.


So, enjoy the insert, sit back, and LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!!


Mitchell: How much farther...?



Mitchell whined as he let out a huge yawn followed by the rest of his teammates, who were still sleep deprived from the incident last night.



Rachel: Should've just stayed in bed.......

Me: I really regret pulling out that stupid jar now. Ugh.........

Yang: What did happen, anyway? You guys were really noisy last night.

Tenka: Long story cut short, Shadow came in, took out a whole jar of sap, and we literally had to split it away from Rachel's hand, otherwise she'd be up all night. And you do not want to be there when she is.

Ruby: Why?

Me: According to Tenka, let's just say you don't want to wake up with dragon bites all over your face and your body---

Rachel: Hey! You can't prove that!

Mitchell: Yeah right, I can prove it to you, Rach. But, another time. ---So, are we there yet, Weiss?!

Weiss: Oh, quit whining. It's just up ahead. See?


Weiss' POV:

Back in Beacon, Shadow and his team were just about to call it a day when I literally dragged them to see the Vytal Festival that was about to begin in town just after our classes. The streets of Vale of was being decorated in time for the Vytal Festival. Red, yellow, and green streamers and balloons are proudly on display, and Team RWBY, along with Team STRM, are strolling through it all with me in the front of both teams, in awe. A sign is being put up by the elderly Shopkeep that reads in bright red letters "WELCOME TO VALE!" for all the foreign newcomers from their respective kingdoms of Remnant. Then, I suddenly stop and raised my arms in amazement.



Me: The Vytal Festival! Oh, this is absolutely wonderful!



Rachel then quietly leans towards my ear.



Rachel: (Whispering) Is she smiling?



Shadow shrugged his shoulders in response.



Ruby: I don't think I've ever seen you smile, Weiss. It is kinda weirding me out...

Shadow: Trust me, you're not the only one who's freaked out by her sudden attitude.



He said this as he motioned his head towards Mitchell, who was slightly trembling.



Me: (turning to Ruby) How could you not smile? A festival dedicated to the cultures of the world! There will be dances! Parades! A tournament! Oh, the amount of planning and organization that goes into this event is simply breathtaking!

Tenka: If I weren't so tired right now, I would've smile too. But since you said that Weiss, it would a right time to smile. (looks at the rest of his Team and Team RWBY while trying to smile due to exhaustion)



Hearing Tenka's statement caused Rachel to crack up bit.



Rachel: You're kidding right?

Tenka: Does it look like I'm kidding?



Hearing Tenka's dark tone was enough to silence Rachel from her antics. And with that, they continued their way towards the docks.



Yang: (sighs, arms crossed) "You really know how to take a good thing and make it sound boring."

Me: Quiet, you!

Yang: (as they stop near the docks and the sounds of foghorns are heard) Remind me again why we're spending our Friday afternoon visiting the stupid docks?

Ruby: (covering her nose) Ugh, they smell like fish!

Rachel: It smells delicious to me~



Ruby turns her head towards Rachel, and the way she did so fast made it appear like it's gonna snap.



Ruby: Now you are weirding me out.

Rachel: What? I'm a Dragon faunus, which means I'm also part dragon. And do note that dragons love fish as well.

Ruby: Hmm.. You have a point, though.

Me: I've heard that students visiting from Vacuo will be arriving by ship today. And, as a representative of Beacon, I feel as though it is my solemn duty to welcome them to this fine kingdom!

Yang: (as Weiss starts walking away again) Why don't you just tell that you just want to spy on them so you'll have the upper hand in the tournament?



After hearing this from Yang, I simply scoff about it.



Me: You can't prove that, Yang, now can we?!



Yang raises his hands in defense.



Yang: I'm not saying, just asking......

Ruby: (turns her head to the right) Whoa.


My POV:

The two teams look at a shattered window down the street and a door full of yellow caution tape of the Vale Police Force before walking over to the detective in front, who is writing on his pad.



Me: What the heck happened here?

Detective 1: Robbery. Second Dust shop to be hit this week. This place is turning into a jungle. (walks over to his partner)

Yang: (sighs sadly) That's terrible.

Rachel: Yeah. No kidding there.

Detective 2: They left all the money again.

Ruby: (turning her head when she hears this) Huh?

Detective 1: Yeah, just doesn't make a lick of sense. Who needs that much Dust?

Detective 2: I don't know, an army?

Detective 1: You thinking the White Fang?

Detective 2: (removing his sunglasses) Yeah, I'm thinking we don't get paid enough.

Weiss: Hmph! The White Fang. (crossing her arms and pointing her nose in the air with her eyes closed) What an awful bunch of degenerates!

Blake: What's your problem?

Weiss: (turning to her) My problem? I simply don't care for the criminally insane.

Blake: The White Fang is hardly a bunch of psychopaths. (crossing her arms, getting serious) They're a collection of misguided Faunus.

Weiss: Misguided? They want to wipe Humanity off the face of the planet!

Blake: So then they're very misguided. Either way, it doesn't explain why they would rob a Dust shop in the middle of downtown Vale!

Me: Blake has a point. (Flipping pages of my history book again to the right page) The White Fang were peaceful protestants back in the old days.

Ruby: Besides, the police never caught that Torchwick guy Shadow and I ran into a few months ago... Maybe it was him?

Me: You're probably right, Rubes.



Again, Ruby blushes at the mention of her given nickname.



Weiss: That still doesn't change the fact that the White Fang are a bunch of scum.



Weiss still continues to criticize the White Fang much to Blake's growing anger.



Weiss: Those Faunus only know how to lie, cheat, and steal.



At that point, Tenka had literally snapped. He had enough.



Tenka: Weiss, that's enough out of you!

Me and the others, especially Weiss, were extremely shocked at Tenka's sudden outburst. Then suddenly, the sound of someone crying is heard before the sound of footsteps near them was beginning to fade. Mitchell then realized it was Rachel running away, who was incredibly hurt at Weiss said a while ago, causing her to run away in a feat of tears. This angered Mitchell, and disappointed Tenka.



Mitchell: See what you've just done?! Rachel! Wait!



Mitchell takes a sudden took flight as she follows Rachel run past a corner, shortly followed by Tenka by using his semblance to catch up. I followed a little later, and by the time I took a sharp turn at the corner, they were nowhere to be seen.



Me: Dang it!



I ran back towards the group to see them all in a fit of apologetic faces. Before I could even outburst at Weiss.....



???: Hey, stop that Faunus!



Me and Team RWBY overhear the cry for help and rush over to investigate. I saw a Faunus with a golden monkey tail running down the length of the boat and leaping on to the edge as the two sailors are about to apprehend him.



Monkey-Tailed Faunus: (looking back at his pursuers) Thanks for the ride, guys! Haha! (he jumps off and hits the dock running)

Sailor 2: You no-good stowaway!

Monkey-Tailed Faunus:
(using his tail to hang on a lamppost while he peels back a banana) Hey! A no-good stowaway would've been caught! I'm a great stowaway!



Before he eats, one of the detectives down below throws a stone at him to get his attention.



Detective 1: Hey! Get down from there this instant!



He replies by dropping the banana peel on the detective's face, who growls in return. The monkey-like Faunus twirls up to crouch on the lamppost, laughs in amusement, and proceeds to leap off and run away from the detectives. As he runs past me and Team RWBY before I could even have the chance to freeze him in place.



Yang: Well, Weiss, you wanted to see the competition, and there it goes...

Weiss: (holding up a finger) Quick! We have to observe him!



Me, Weiss, Yang, and Ruby gave chase. I then notice Blake, who stands still as she appears to be lost in thought.



Me: Blake, aren't you coming?



And with that, she then comes back to reality and follows her friends. Then, me and others took a round at the next corner, but then Weiss bumps into someone and trips. She looks up only to see monkey-boy jump on to a building and disappear from her view.



Weiss: No, he got away!

Yang: Uhh... Weiss?



Yang then points strangely at the girl underneath her teammate.

Weiss finally sees that she fell on a smiling girl, which startles the heiress and she hastily gets up.



Girl: (still down on the ground, smiling widely) "Sal-u-ta-tions!"

Ruby: Um... hello.

Yang: Are you... okay?

Girl: I'm wonderful! Thank you for asking.



The girl replies with a smile as she still lies on the ground, prompting me and Ruby's team looks at each other in bewilderment before Yang speaks up again.



Yang: Do you... wanna get up?



For a moment, the girl literally thinks about it before replying......



Girl: Yes!



She then leaps back on her feet by doing a swiftly made kick-up while the team, with the exception of me, step back a little. I was completely fascinated at the amount of strength she just displayed.



Me: That..... was astonishingly amazing! My name's, Shadow. Shadow Wrath.



I smiled at her kindly and held out my hand to greet her.



Penny: Hi! My name is Penny! It's a pleasure to meet you!



She shook my hand and I turned my head to the rest of the girls.



Me: These are my friends.

Ruby: Hi Penny. I'm Ruby.

Weiss: I'm Weiss.

Blake: Blake.

Yang: Are you sure you didn't hit your head?



Me and Blake then hit Yang on both of her sides to make her correct her discourtesy.



Yang: Oh, I'm Yang.

Penny: It's a pleasure to meet you!

Weiss: You already said that.

Penny: (pauses again) So I did!



Then just in a nick of time, Tenka had somehow finally found me and the others.



Tenka: There you guys are! What'd I miss?



Tenka then turns to his front to see Penny, who stares at him in bewilderment.



Tenka: Oh! Who's this?

Me: Tenka, meet Penny. Penny, Tenka. Tenka, Penny.



Tenka then held his had out for a shake.



Tenka: Pleasure to make your acquaintance, Penny.



Penny accepts the hand and shakes.



Penny: The pleasure is all mine.

Weiss: Okay, we really should get going. Sorry for running into you! (they turn around and start walking away)

Ruby: (waving her arm) Take care, friend!



When me and the others got far enough away from a suddenly startled Penny....



Me: I wonder how she possessed that much strength.... Look at my arm. (Everyone looks at my injured hand that I used to shake Penny's hand with)

Yang: She was... weird... Don't you think so, Tenka? Tenka?



Tenka ignores her as he appears to be lost in thought as he walked onward. I snapped my fingers in front of his face, which made him return back to where reality was.



Tenka: Huh? Wh-What? I'm sorry, were you saying something.



Yang stares at him for a moment before replying......



Yang: You're weird....

Tenka: Hey!!

Weiss: (looking to her right) Now, where did that Faunus riff-raff run off to?

Tenka: Unless you're talking about Rachel..... she's back in Beacon with Mitchell. Deciding not to talk to you until she finally wants to---

Weiss: Look, I clearly did not said any name.

Tenka: Maybe you should've thought about what you were saying after you knew you are tagging along with u--- okay, how did you get here?!



Then out of nowhere whichTenka noticed, Penny suddenly appears in front of a surprised Weiss.



Penny: What did you call me?



Weiss looks back and forth in shock and Yang looks apologetic, while Tenka looks impressed at the speed she demonstrated.



Yang: Oh, I'm really sorry, I definitely didn't think you heard me!

Penny: No, not you.



She walks through me and the group and leans her head down to Ruby.



Penny: You!

Ruby: (startled) Me? I-I don't know. I, what I, um, uh...

Penny: You called me 'friend'! Am I really your friend?

Ruby: Uuuum...



She looks over Penny's shoulder. While her teammates motion to deny her, I'm just nodding my head away in approval, while Tenka shrugged. He was impressed, but he still needs to be cautious about it.


Ruby: Y-Yeah, sure! Why not?



Ruby's teammates comically faint behind me and Tenka, but Penny looks overjoyed and laughs.



Penny: Sen-sational! We can paint our nails, and try on clothes, and talk about cute boys!

Me: Don't mind if I ask but, is that what you girls really do in your spare time nowadays?



I said as I tilted my head towards Ruby, who's face then flushed red at my inquiry.



Ruby:
Wh-What? N-N-No! Th-That's not what w-we do! We.... We.... W-We d-don't talk about cute b-boys, or...... or..... or anything like that...



Ruby tapped her index fingers together repeatedly as she tries not to make eye contact with me for some unknown reason. Truthfully speaking inside my head, I am slightly surprised at Ruby's sudden embarrassed reply. Yang then started talking to Penny, before I could even ask her why she's acting like that so sudden.



Yang: So... what are you doing in Vale?

Penny: I'm here to fight in the tournament.

Weiss: Wait, you're fighting in the tournament?

Penny: (saluting) I'm combat ready!

Weiss: Forgive me, but you hardly look the part.

Blake: Says the girl wearing a dress.



Tenka facepalms as I sighed at this.



Weiss: (with her arms crossed) It's a combat skirt!



The "Skirt sister", Ruby then speeds over to Weiss' side.



Ruby: Yeah!



Weiss holds out her hand and Ruby low-fives it, then realization hits Weiss by the second.


Me: (Inner thoughts) Super Co-op Skirt Sisters... NICE!

Weiss: Wait a minute.



She walks over to Penny and grabs her by the shoulders.



Weiss: If you're here for the tournament, does that mean you know that monkey-tailed... rapscallion?"

Penny: The who...?



She then holds up a poor drawing of the criminal-in-question, much to your and Sky's surprise.



Me: W-Wait. Since when did she---?



I turned towards Tenka, who raises his hands in confusion.



Weiss:
The filthy Faunus from the boat!

Blake: Why do you keep saying that?!



Weiss then turns her attention from Penny to Blake.



Weiss: Huh?

Blake: (walking over to Weiss, angry) Stop calling him a rapscallion! Stop calling him a degenerate! He's a person!

Weiss: Oh, I'm sorry. (releases Penny and motions to objects around her) Would you like me to stop referring to the trash can as a trash can? Or this lamppost as a lamppost?

Me: Weiss, that's enough.

Weiss: Enough what, Shadow?! He clearly broke the law. Give him time; he'll probably join up with those other Faunus in the White Fang!

Blake: (growls) You ignorant little---

Me: When I say enough, (my voice turned a little deeper (A/N: Like G-Major that kind,but dragon-like)).... I do mean THAT'S ENOOOUUUGH!!!



My sudden tantrum caused me to unexpectedly activate my semblance a bit by creating a harmless circular blast around me, but it did drop the temperature than normal amd to have my eyes to glow red (left eye) and blue (right eye). Both Blake and Weiss turned their attentions towards me, thunderstruck at your sudden outburst. The same could be described for both Ruby and Yang, who literally had their jaws hanging. Tenka quickly turned to Penny before any damage could be done.



Tenka: Uh....It was nice meeting you Penny, but you should probably go. Trust me, you do not want to be near our Team Leader when he's this mad. Go already before he goes ice crazy!



Penny looked surprised for a moment, nodded and ran away as quickly as she could from the group. Meanwhile, I was advancing my way towards the two girls. If stares could kill, it probably would've killed them both by now.



Me: Both of you girls really have no idea what the heck you two are really talking about, do you?

Blake/Weiss: What?!/Beg you pardon?!

Me: You know what, forget it. It seems like you two aren't going to listen anyway....

Weiss: Try us.

Me: You're not daring me.... are you?

Weiss: I'm not gonna repeat of what I said, Shadow.

Me: Fine then! Do you understand how it feels to be discriminated, beaten, and mistreated just because you're different from the rest of normal people?



Weiss struggled her brain for the right words to say as she was about to answer, and then realized I was absolutely true.



Me: My thoughts exactly. How about you, Blake? Do you even know how it feels to have something stolen from you by a mere Faunus? Or being assaulted by the a dedicated community of them for that matter?



Blake was just about to give you the same expression that Weiss gave, before realizing I was right as well.



Me: You see what I mean? Both of you have the exact opposite perspective on both parties. You might as well suck those words up to those thick skulls of yours!



Blake: Easy for you to say if you weren't even a Faunus, Shadow. But to me, She's still an ignorant little brat!



Blake then walked away, Weiss looks offended, but when Blake walks away, she follows.



Weiss: How dare you talk to me like that! I am your teammate!

Blake: You are a judgmental little girl.

Weiss: What in the world makes you say that?

Blake: The mere fact that you would sort that Faunus boy with a terrorist group solely based on his species makes you just as much of a scoundrel as you believe him to be!

I held my head in downcast. Tenka, Ruby and Yang then came up next to me, with Ruby putting her hand on my shoulder.



Tenka: At least you tried your very best, cap.....



He reassures me by giving me gentle pats on the the back.



Ruby: You...... doing alright, Shadow?



I looked over at Weiss and Blake arguing with each other. I sighed out loud at the situation, and answered Ruby's question, by shaking my head to the sides, which caused Ruby to be sad at my bearings. While Ruby watches the debate between Blake and Weiss, Yang came sliding up to Ruby, looking uncomfortable.



Yang: Um, I think we should probably go...

Weiss: So you admit it! The White Fang is just a radical group of terrorists!

Blake: That's not what I meant, and you know it!




---TIMESKIP---



Blake's POV:

Weiss: I don't understand why this is causing such a problem!

Me: That is the problem!



Shadow and the others had gotten back to the dormitory in Beacon, with Ruby and her team back in theirs. He and his team could even hear Weiss and I still arguing, the sound of their argument reached all the  way just near my dorm. Night has already loomed over the skies outside, and we awerestill been arguing in our room. Shadow and Tenka went out to check it out again, leaving Mitchell in still trying to cheer Rachel up back to her spirits.



Weiss: (getting up from her bed) You realize you are defending an organization that hates Humanity, don't you? The Faunus of the White Fang are pure evil!

Me: (gets on her feet as well) There's no such thing as pure evil! Why do you think they hate Humanity so much? It's because of people like Cardin, people like you, that force the White Fang to take such drastic measures!

Weiss: People like me?

Me: You're discriminatory!

Tenka: Weiss, don't---

Weiss: I'm a victim!



As they stare each other down in silence, Weiss leans in close, leering as she speaks quietly.



Weiss: You want to know why I despise the White Fang? Why I don't particularly trust the Faunus?



She walks over and leans against the bookshelf by the window as she continues to narrate her bitter story.



Weiss: It's because they've been at war with my family for years. War, as in actual bloodshed. My grandfather's company has had a target painted across its back for as long as I can remember. And ever since I was a child, I've watched family, friends... disappear; board members executed; an entire train car full of Dust, stolen. And every day, my father would come home, furious. And that made for a very difficult childhood.



As Ruby slowly walks over to comfort her.



Ruby: Weiss, maybe you should-

Weiss: NO!



She then turns away from the window and walks back over to me.



Weiss: You want to know why I despise the White Fang?!

Tenka: Weiss, I--

Weiss: It's because they're a bunch of liars, thieves, and murderers!

Me: Well maybe we were just tired of being pushed around!



With that, silence looms over down on the whole room. A surprised Weiss backs away slowly, and I realized my mistake as I looks at my teammates, Shadow, and his fellow teammates, including Mitchell and Rachel, who had just arrived due to curiosity in hearing the becoming-loud commotion that was transpiring.



Me: I... I...



I quickly dashed out the door, into the hallways, and out into the cold night.



Ruby: Blake, wait! Come back!



Ruby runs over to the door and calls to me down the hallway as Yang sits herself down on a nearby chair while Mitchell sits down on the arm chair where Yang is sitting on, and Weiss looks down. Rachel looks sadder than ever as if all the happiness and joy had been sucked right out of her.



Mitchell: Uh.... Where's Tenka?


Tenka's POV:

Meanwhile, Blake runs outside, panting as she goes, and arrives at a statue of an armored man with a sword and a hooded woman wielding an axe on an outcropping, staring at the beowolf under the stone heroes in particular. She closes her eyes and slowly lifts her arms up to her bow and pulls the string to release the bow from her hair, exposing her Faunus cat ears. She released her grip of the bow and let the wind blow it away. She then wipes away a tear away. On the verge of crying, she becomes startled when she hears a voice above her.



???: I knew you would look better without the bow.



She turns around and looks up. That familiar monkey-tailed faunus had somehow trespassed on Beacon campus and had found Blake at the base of the statue. After a very brief conversation, Blake began to walk off with Sun. But then, she then heard a baritone voice from behind.



Me: Going somewhere? Then, I guess you'll be away for a while, yes.



She turned to see me sitting on the stone Grimm.



Blake: When---- How---?!



I lightly chuckled at Blake's priceless expression as I jumped off the stone Grimm I was sitting on and very slowly walk towards her.



Me: You're talking to the guy who's faster than the speed of light and who has been training to be a samurai. I have my ways.

Blake: Look, it doesn't matter. And don't even try to stop me, Tenka.

Me: Now, now. Who says I'm stopping you? I was letting you have it on your own way. But you have to promise me two things first.

Blake: And why is that?

Me: Because I'll eventually do something that could help you in return.

Blake: Okay.... I'm listening.

Me: One: Promise me you'll return back to Beacon. I don't care when or how much time you need. Just come back in one piece.



Blake smiles, and nods.



Blake: I promise.



I still continued walking slowly and pulled Blake's bow out of my pocket, which I had caught just after Blake had released it.



Me: And lastly: Don't do anything stupid that I wouldn't do.



As I nearly had what I always wanted, this didn't put much restriction on Blake. She giggled at my last request.



Blake: Okay. I promise.

Me: In return...



I then tied the bow around Blake's arm as I explained my bargain.



Me: I will throw the rest of your team off your trail, until you are ready to face them. Shadow can be as persisting as he is so I will try to throw my own teammates off the trail as well. Though I don't know what would happen if he finds out about it.



Blake giggled adorably at my thought.



Blake: It's okay, Tenka. I promise you, he wouldn't. Thank you.

Me: See you around, Blake. But remember, I will be always watching you like how I have been doing all this time.



I gave her a wink and a smile that made Blake's heart beat faster than the average and turn her face beet red before I suddenly disappeared in a blur.



Me: (Inner thoughts) Hmmm... Be safe with Monkey-Boy, Blake.




---TIMESKIP---




Blake's POV:

Throughout the remainder of Friday and Saturday, I'm still not seen by the rest of my team, and Shadow's. Needless to say, Tenka kept to his word, keeping them off of my trail. Meanwhile, I am sipping a cup of tea and sighing, looking up at Sun sitting across from me, who holds his drink with his tail as his hand props his head up. He takes a sip when I place my cup down.



Me: So, you want to know more about me...
