RWBY X Meta Runner: Worlds Collide

Summary:

The world of Remnant could not get any more dangerous. The Grimm, Faunus extremists, and criminals spread far and wide. But now, the dimension-conquering, world-destroying, unstoppable robot warlord Vekk-Torr has it in his crossfire as he seeks to destroy it alongside the rest of reality. However, two groups of heroes beg to differ. Ruby Rose, Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, Yang Xiao Long, Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Pyrrha Nikos, and Lie Ren. Also known as Team RWBY and Team JNPR, these two teams of huntsmen the warlord once captured came crashing down into their home, awakening stronger than ever. But this time, they are not alone; from another world, Tari, the always-running Meta Runner, her companion, the protagonist of Ultra Jump Mania, Theo, and her allies, MD-5, Belle Fontiere, Lamar Williams, Masa Shimamoto, and sisters Sofia and Lucinia Porter, and good friend, Marco. These heroes must join forces to do the unthinkable—defeat the robot warlord and save Remnant before its destruction. Despite being outnumbered and outgunned, they got to crush the warlord's robot armada, slay his heinous Grimm, and do what no one had ever done: defeat Vekk-Torr and his despicable generals!

Chapter Text

Disclaimer: This fanfiction does not endorse tribalism between Rooster Teeth and Glitch Productions. As a fan of both studios, I want this to be a fun read for the Rooster Teeth and Glitch Productions fanbases. I know many people have worked hard on both RWBY and Meta Runner, especially the series' creators (Monty Oum and the Lerdwichagul brothers, respectively), but no one is perfect. And neither am I. As for the story I am writing, I am trying to make it perfect in my image to make the best RWBY/Meta Runner crossover fanfiction possible. 

For readers unknown to the Meta Runner parts of this fanfiction, be advised that the following fanfic contains gratuitous use of Meta Runner references. But seriously, watch the whole series. And for those unknown of the RWBY parts, I recommend you also binge that series.


Once upon a time, there was an open plane of walkable water. Unbeknownst to all of us, a server of the Meta Runner saved Silica City, Tari. On the server, there were a few games that she and her companion, Theo, could play in their spare time. These games include Battle Blaze, Fast Food Fight, Hidden Heroes, Nova Explorers, Pocket Gakusei, Skybreakers, Tempest, Turbo Crash 9, and Ultra Jump Mania, where Theo hails. But then, a fuchsia rift unknowingly appeared from out of nowhere. As it expanded, the central fissure began to spread wider and wider until it became a portal for its summoner. Out of the portal came a humanoid, villainous, dimension-hopping, robot warlord standing as tall as two Shaquille O'Neals standing atop each other. His armor resembles a medieval knight, colored navy blue, obsidian black, and steel gray. He dons giant greaves and sabatons on his legs, every fingertip on his gauntlets is conical and sharp like a bird of prey, and a crimson cape between his spiky pauldrons. Blacklight emanates throughout his entire body, mainly glowing through the crevasses in his armor. His head was a semisphere with spikes across it akin to a Texas horned lizard and a screen with two ultraviolet eyes to show his emotions. He summons an icosahedron-like device that he uses to travel dimensions.

"This will do for now." He said. "Soon, this world will fear my name. The Living Black Hole, VEKK-TORR!"

He was interrupted by two more miniature robots who jumped out of the portal and fell to the ground before it closed. One is the height of a barstool, and his body is shaped like a cube with rounded edges and a screen with two white eyes, humanoid arms with defibrillators in his palms and legs with metallic boots for feet, and is colored neon green and bronze. The other is the form of a neon pink and orange robotic chimpanzee with long arms, a scorpion's tail, tank treads for legs, and a dodecahedron with two screens with two cyan eyes each for a head.

"Ugh, I hope you two prepared my army." Vekk-Torr told the two.

"They await your command, boss!" The cubic robot responded.

"Tri-El! What about the intruder?" The chimpanzee robot interrupted.

"WHAT?!" Vekk-Torr snarled at the two.

"For starters, wasn't that your job on the ship, Err-Yr?" The cubic robot named Tri-El, asked his chimpanzee-like colleague, Err-Yr.

"Oh, that's a load of crap. It was you who was in charge of the prisoners." Err-Yr objected.

Vekk-Torr grabbed the two and bashed their heads together to cease the argument before they could advance.

"We have important matters now," Vekk-Torr ordered.

He created a portal to another world with his device, and he and his generals entered it to their location. As the portal closes, it becomes a new game for Tari's server. An open-world action RPG entitled RWBY: World of Remnant. After a well-fought win in Tempest, Tari and Theo exited. Both chuckled at the adventure together.

"Well, Theo. Guess we'll call it a day." Tari said to her short humanoid companion.

She then created a bunk bed for the two while claiming the top bed.

"Guess you're right. We did have a good time. Good night!" Theo cheered as he got into bed.

Tari clapped her hands and made the server into a nighttime setting. By the time they woke up, it was morning in Silica City. They jumped out of bed and landed on the ground. Theo noticed something unfamiliar about the server.

"Say, is that game supposed to be delayed?" Theo noted the game that appeared on the server.

"What are you talking about, Theo?" Tari questioned her comrade.

Theo pointed to the game that appeared on the server overnight.

"RWBY: World of Remnant? That is the game destined to be a hot Christmas gift?" She continued.

"Yeah," Theo answered quickly. "It seems we somehow got an early copy."

"Theo…" Tari responded, "First time for everything, right?"

Theo nodded yes and smiled, and the two entered the new game. But as the two entered the new game, ready to experience it first, they were about to witness a new, wild, unexpected, and gigantic adventure.


RWBY X Meta Runner

Worlds Collide

Notes:

This story takes place two weeks after Meta Runner's end, and much like a story I once wrote, it is a diversion from the main RWBY timeline since this Remnant is a video game in the Meta Runner universe where players in the game make choices for team RWBY, similar to the Infamous series.
