We, the Dreamers: A RWBY x Warframe Tale

Chapter Thirty-Three: The Dreamer's Greatest Nightmare

Vytal Festival Fairgrounds...
3rd Person POV

Weiss: If I'm honest, I just want this festival to finally come to a conclusion. It's just been too much.

Ryoma: Agreed.

Blake: Same here.

At the fairgrounds of the Vytal Festival, the Tenno, alongside Weiss and Blake, sat together inside a coffeehouse stand to relax themselves with a hot beverage.

Ryoma: That said, I do wonder how I would fare in the tournament-.

Weiss: You'd have destroyed the competition.

Ryoma: Without my Warframe?

Weiss: .....nevermind.

Blake: Such encouraging words, Weiss...

Weiss: Well it's true. In his Warframe, I don't think any of us would be able to compete.

Ryoma: That's not entirely accurate, but-.

Weiss: But without it, it's hard to tell...

Ryoma: Eh, we'll find out next year... provided one of you actually wants to sit out.

Blake: .....

Weiss: .....

Ryoma: Eh, whatever...

Taking a drink from the plastic cup in his hands, the Tenno began to watch the hologram that was hung in the back corner of the stand.

Oobleck: Alright, it's now time to begin the randomization process for our next fight!

Port: Our first contender is.... Penny Polendia, from Atlas!

Ryoma: So that's her last name... neat.

Port: And her opponent... Pyrrha Nikos, from Beacon!

Ryoma: Oof!

Weiss: This'll be a mess for Penny...

Blake: Let's not underestimate her.

Ryoma: I'm not, but have you fought against Pyrrha?

Ryoma: She fights like a monster.... it's hard to believe she's like that with her timid personality.

*Pyrrha: Hello*

Penny: Salutations, Pyrrha Nikos!

Hands on her hip, she displayed her usual odd sense of politeness.

Penny: It's an honor to finally meet you!

Oobleck: Fighters, are you ready!

After a short pause, they counted down the inevitable.

Port: 3,2,1... Begin!

As the two begun their fight, admist a series of blades deployed by Penny, the Tenno squinted his eyes at the screen as he noticed a familiar face.

Ryoma: Is that...?

Blake: You see something?

Ryoma: That girl from the beginning of the tournament, the one with the bright green hair...

Weiss: Emerald.

He pointed out the brightly colored hair and dark skin among the audience.

Ryoma: Wasn't she on the same team with Mercury?

As the two looked, they too began to realize that something was off.

Weiss: Didn't Ruby just mention that his teammates heft with him to Haven?
