This is the story of Lotus Mellow, a earth pony who is working to become a huntress to get the skill to deal with the grimm who have taken over her hometown of Little Rock, it wont be a easy journey for her though, crime and war is growing close as the Griffin Empire gets more and more aggressive at Equestria due to the lack of support from Equestria to deal with the rising issue of Grimm in the Griffin Empire
This is a crossover story of RWBY and MLP, i hope you enjoy but beware that there might be plot holes and things might change as new episodes of RWBY comes out. Also the sex tab is on because there is references to sex and body parts such as breasts.
Lotus Mellow, she is a dull yellow color with a dull blue colored mane with a cutie mark of four lotuses. She is a bit smaller then most other ponies her age - which is 17 - but that often doesn't effect her besides the occasional insult slung her way which in that case it does effect her much more then normal.
But where she shines is her sembalance and weapon. Her weapon, the Prancer, is a weapon she forged her self at Luna's Combat school which is one of the most famous schools for fillies to learn how to protect them selves - A fun fact about the school is that despite the name, Luna has never been to the school before - how she uses the weapon is tied to her sembalace, you see her sembalance is all about energy but in a odd way, you see what ever she grabs she can give energy to but it takes a while. Now that you know her sembalance i can talk about her weapon and fighting style, you see Lotus is not very strong at all so her weapon does all the work, it is a long metal pole with a trigger at one end and the other end is the barrel. She uses her sembalance to charge its power, the power works in percents, and it takes her about 1 second to charge 1% which means charging it to 100% takes ruffly 1 minute and 40 seconds. This is all for the two ways she uses the weapon, one being like a rifle where she picks how much power the shot uses to fire a powerful shot a pure energy at her target, this is her favorite and most common way of using the Prancer and she is very skilled at aiming with the rifle, the other way which she only uses when a enemy is flipping the Prancer to the other side and holding it like she would if she was holding a battleaxe, she holds it because she sets the Prancer to battleaxe mode and puts how much power it uses per strike, when it is set on Battleaxe mode the trigger side of the gun gets covered in a blade of energy, it is on both sides making it easier to use due to the more sides she has access to.
But when there is no power in the Prancer and Lotus does not have time to put power back into she does the most 'noble' of things which is... Running, that is correct, when she has no power in her weapon and does not have the chance to power it back up she just runs and tries to make time to power it which makes her a really bad lone fighter.
Now that her weapon, sembalance, and looks are out of the way it is time to talk about her motive to be a Huntress. You see she was born in a small town called Little Rock which is on the boarder between Equestria and the Griffin Empire which made it quite a diverse place, but due to it being near the Griffin Empire - which has the largest amount of Grimm - Little Rock was overrun by Grimm, so with that Lotus went into Luna's Combat School so that she can have enough skill to join Golden Gate which is the largest school for training Hunters and Huntresses so that she could become a huntress and have the skill, license, and team to take back Little Rock.
And now you know everything there is to know about Lotus... Wait what? You want to know her personality? Well sorry, you have to read the real story to know that, enjoy the story.
Lotus Mellow was out of breath and panting hard, the final exam in Luna's Combat School was to kill a Creep which is a moster of Grimm. She was doing really well and close to kill it when her weapon ran out of power, due to this being in a pretty small area she had no where to run but she still tried. Now she was faced with a heavily bleeding and one legged Creep which was STILL crawling towards her with death in it's eyes, you may be thinking that if it has only one leg left then it should be easy to kill but no, it can still lung and rip into her if she got to cocky so Lotus didn't just charge at it, she instead took the time she had to think "Ok... L-Lets see... It would take the Creep about 4 seconds to get close which would give me enough time for 3-5% of power... Ok!" She put her hand to the trigger and started up her sembalance, putting as much power as she could into it before it got into a lung distance, the meter read 3%, she cringed a bit, she really was hoping it would be at least 4% but she really didn't have a say in that. She powered up the battleaxe mode of her weapon and got it ready, she knew that 4% was not strong enough to cut into its head enough to reach it's brain so Lotus had a much better idea.
Once the Grimm lunged at her she swung her weapon, it sliced through its jaw living it unable to bite her. She got ready to beat into it but it was unnecessary, it gone limp and died from blood loss. Soon a buzz was heard as the small arena around her opened up, allowing her to step out and walk to the podium, now she was meant to grab her diploma which would be proof that she passed Combat School but it was not possible for her because after one step out of the arena she collapsed due to blood loss coming from her wounds from fighting the Creep. After that Lotus was picked up and taken to the medical ward of the school to be fixed up.
Lotus woke up after about three hours, when she did she noticed three things that where different then before she passed out, one being that she was in the medical ward on a bed - duh -, second one being that she was in a medical gown rather then her normal blue jeans, blue skin tight shirt, and yellow trench coat which creeped her out quite a bit because that meant that someone must have changed her and saw her flat chest which both pissed her off and made her blush confusingly, and the last one being that she had bandages over where she was bitten by the Creep. She pushed her self up and found that on a rack in the little room that she was in was her cloths, she took off the gown and put them on, she reached in her pocket and took out her scroll noticing that there was a message from the head master saying to come to his office to pick up her diploma. She slipped her scroll back in her pocket and head out the room which lead into the main room of the medical ward which was basically a large room with scales and medical equipment on one side and on the other side was a lot of doors which lead to the small rooms that held the medical beds, once she was done look around she head out the medical ward and started off to the head master's office.
It took her a while to get there but once she got there she was a bit nervous to enter, she never met the head master before and didn't know how she would react if something went wrong so she got a plan ready "Right... Ill just enter, say hello, grab the diploma, and leave..." she left out a sigh and knocked on the door.
"Come in!" She slowly opened the door after she heard the call, sitting on a large comfy looking chair behind a large oak desk was the head master, he was a really big man with a Nata on his back and a horn on his head. This confirmed to her that he was a unicorn unlike Lotus who was a earth pony "Ah, you are Ms. Mellow, correct?"
"Ah yes t-thats correct... Uhm... Sir?" He laughed a bit, Lotus didn't quite know what he was laughing at exactly but she stiffed up anyway.
"Oh please, just call me Mr. Nectar, anyway here is your diploma" He said as he floated it over to her with magic, as soon as it landed into Lotus's hand she turned to leave but Mr. Nectar called out to her "Wait! When I heard a student had passed out I had to check who it was, when I found out it was you I decided to find your records and you are quite skilled. If you wish I could put a recommendation in your records, that would help you get into what ever Huntress school you want... That is if being a Huntress is what you desire" Lotus gasped.
"Yes please! I really want to get into Golden Gate!" The head master was a bit shocked at that.
"Golden Gate? You DO know what Golden Gate has a really ruff entrance exam, don't you? The ratio of acceptances to rejections to deaths is 2:3:5, death or rejection is very much expected at just the entrance exam..." Mr. Nectar said that with a grim expression on his face, it kinda scared Lotus but she remained determined
She shook her head "I don't care, I need to learn from that school!" Mr. Nectar sighed
"Ok... Ill put a recommendation in for you... Have a nice day Ms. Mellow"
She just nodded and walked out with her diploma in hand
Lotus put a dollar into the vending machine, she was shocked at her luck soon after because it didn't take her multiple times for the dollar to go in. Soon after that she was close to blowing up the vending machine because nothing was coming out, it just stole her money, she let out a annoyed sigh as she walked away from it and instead just boarded the airship to Golden Gate instead. She walked over to a small bench next to one of the large windows and sat down, Lotus turned her head to look out the window and when she did she felt sick - now Lotus doesn't normally have a fear of highest but this is much higher then ever before - she quickly pulled head away from the window and let out another sigh, gripping her weapon tightly in a attempt to cover her fear. But seem like it didn't work because when this girl sat next to Lotus, this is the first thing she said to her "Hey, are you ok? You looks a bit pale"
Lotus clenched her teeth in anger "Yes! I am ok! And even if i wasn't it still wouldn't be your god damn business!" The girl flinched a bit at her out burst and soon after fell silent but still didn't move from bench. Now that the girl was done talking, Lotus let out a sigh and glanced at her, she was wearing what looked to be a robe and she had a horn on her head. So she was a unicorn and the robes where a deep blue color with small purple tracing, from this Lotus was able to come out with a kind of theory on who this girl was, she thought that the girl was unicorn mage wearing dust infused robes. That is pretty common but now that she got a idea on what she might use to attack, which she suspected was magic, Lotus took a look at the girl's other features. Lotus could see that she was a light blue color with a white mane, despite having a white mane she didn't look old which was quite remarkable.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" the girl asked which snapped Lotus out of her inspection.
"What? I wasn't staring at you! Don't get any ideas..." Lotus said with a huff as she turned away, her eyes now landing on the window, with a cringe of fear she just decided to looks at her weapon instead of anything else
The girl chuckled "Hey calm down, i was just joking! My name is Octans, Octans Ara. Whats your name miss?" She said happily with a smile, the first three thoughts that came to Lotus was: 'Shes kinda cute' , 'Ugh, shes annoying' , and 'Miss? I am not a old lady!'
Lotus grind her teeth together "Ugh... My name is Lotus Mellow, feel MORE then happy to forget that name, i plan to do that same with you." Lotus said flatly, not really trying to hide the distaste she had for Octans.
But for some reason Octans still smiled "Well nice to met you" Once she said that, Octans put on some headphones and closed her eyes. Finally Lotus could feel like she had the sweet release of non-stupid people in her ears, and with that Lotus attempted to fall asleep her self...
Soon she was jolted away by the pain of a smack, "WHAT THE HELL!?" Lotus screamed as she was Octans rub her hand, it looked like Octans was trying to act in pain "Why did you slap me!?"
Octans chuckled nervously "Well you weren't waking up and we arrived at Golden Gate so... What else was i meant to do?"
Lotus could not deal, she could not deal with this high levels of stupidity, she face palmed so hard that a audible smack was heard "You could have done one of two things... Not wake me up! OR ANYTHING THAT IS NOT SMACKING ME!" Lotus yelled.
Octans chuckled nervously again and shifted her feet "Well... The past is in the past?" Lotus was not even going to acknowledge that, she just took up, grabbed her weapon, and walked off the airship. She took out her scroll and rechecked the email that Golden Gate sent her when her application was approved, it read 'When you get to the campus, head to the auditorium for the welcome ceremony' Lotus sighed and started following the signs to the auditorium, as she walked she was really now noticing the scale of this place, it was massive! She would not be shocked if she got lost a few times.
After a little while of walking, she reached the auditorium. There where a lot of people here, in fact there was so many that she was not sure if she would do very well here but after that small little moment of unsureness, Lotus steeled her conviction and waited for it to start. After a little while, a pegasus stepped up to a microphone that was standing in the middle of of a stage, the pegasus cleared his throat and said...
"Hello everyone... Welcome to Golden Gate... This is a place where you all came to become hunters and huntresses, this is a place where you all came to not be children, this is a place you all came here to live or to die. This is not a place for people who cant handle them selves, if you can't kill to live then you will be left behind, wither behind left behind is in a grave or not is up to you and your skill and will. That is all..." After that creepily foreboding speech, the unicorn left the stage. That unicorn didn't even say his name! Was he the head master or something? Well that is something Lotus was wondering, everyone started to turn and leave, where they where going was also something she was wondering so she checked her scroll once again and it said
'after the welcome ceremony, head to the dorms. The empty main room is where you will be spending your first night, tomorrow will be the entrance exam'
Lotus sighed "Great... Ill have to spend MORE time with people..." Lotus started her way to the main room in the dorms, when she got there guess who she was met with?
"Oh hey again Lolo!!" Octans called out before leaped on her, they both came crashing to the floor "Wasn't the speech so creepy?" She said with a smile... And while still laying on top of Lotus
"I... Have so many questions... But can you first... Get the hell off me!?" Lotus yelled, both to hide her red face and to get Octans off of her, once Octans got up and sat down in front of Lotus, Lotus started to ask her questions "First... What, in the name of all that is fucking holy, did you call me?"
Octans didn't take anytime in answering "Lolo! Its your nickname" Octans chuckled a bit
"No" Lotus said bluntly at the nickname before she went on to the other question "Why did you attack me?"
Octans giggled "Oh silly Lolo, it wasn't a attack! It was a glomp!"
Lotus closed her eyes and sighed in annoyance as she fell on her back, "Huh... Welcome to Golden Gate huh?... This is going to be hell..."
Octans Ara, a light blue female unicorn with a white mane. She wears a dark blue robe with lighting dust infused with the cloth to improve her magic when it is used for lighting or energy or to improve her sembalance which all of the above will be explained soon.
Octans weapon of choice is the 'Star Gazer' a very odd of a weapon, mainly because it can hardly count as a weapon, it is a pair of dark blue leather gloves which have a channeling crystal embedded in them and a system made into it allow her to send out thin almost clear metal wire which is used in many different ways, the most common ways are using it to set up trap for the enemy and she also uses it to send lighting through the wire. Sending lighting through the wire is used for 'whipping' with the lighting charged wires and used for grabbing people and shocking them, though the main way she fights is just normal magic. But what's strange even though she likes using magic and is decent at it, she can only use lighting and fire magic. Her sembalance is quite strange and can not be used with out another person, basically she can infuse her magic with a attack or weapon, for example if someone had a sword she could use a fire spell and use her sembalance which would infuse the sword with the fire spell allowing the sword user to do a multitude of things such as just slash with a flaming sword or shoot flames from the sword for a short time. The other way her sembalance is typically used is if someone used a attack, such as someone shooting a arrow, she could give power to the arrow making her a great support fighter. The main downsides to her attacks are these, she can use it on her self, and the other issue is that the more complex the weapon is, the more specific she has to be in the attack. So if someone had something complex like a gun she would have to be sure to enchant the bullets and not the whole gun.
And so that is Octans Ara, what will her destiny bring? Only the future will show...
Fun fact about Octans name, Octans and Ara are both the name of constellations.
