RWBY Watches Marvel: Blade

Summary:

Ruby Rose and her friends along with a couple enemies sit down and watch the story of Marvel's Daywalker, Blade. Who knows, they might gain new allies along the way. This is a response to Katana of the Blade's challenge to have some of the characters of RWBY react to other Marvel properties besides the MCU. Read her RWBY Watches the MCU fics for more context. Originally posted on FFN, now on quotev for safety and added here as a small test.

Notes:

I'm posting this on here as a small test, I don't own Blade or RWBY as they belong, for better or worse, to their respective copyright holders.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter 1: Prologue

Chapter Text

A young woman was sorting her shelves while humming to herself. She pulled something off of her shelf and looked at it in confusion. "How the hell did that get up there? Set it aside for later." She gave it to a crimson red fox tail with an ashen gray tip that put the object onto a table. The woman was a female kitsune with short fire red hair along with several matching tails and two fox ears on her to match her tails, she was wearing loose black sweatpants and loose grey hoodie. "Now where the hell…?" She jumped as several people landed on her couches. "Andraste's tits! Warn a girl before that happens!" She was holding a hand to her chest as she tried to calm down her beating heart.

She looked at the group that had landed in her viewing theater before groaning. "Right, reactions. Did Katana even send me a text about this or even what films she wants me to handle?" She brought her phone, which was an older iPhone 4 with a badly cracked screen, out and checked it, seeing that she had received several warnings from the Yuki-Onna, who she jokingly calls Frozone, along with the usual text to stop calling her that. "I'll stop calling you that when you stop calling me a Delphox, besides Ninetales is more accurate. Now, what films does she want done? Blade trilogy and X-Men series, huh?"

She shrugged her shoulders. "Haven't done a reaction before, let's see if I've got what it takes." She approached the group of 10 teenagers and three adults. "Welcome everyone to….what in the everloving fucknuggets happened to you four?" She started to greet them before seeing Yang, Neo, Cinder and Ruby's situations. "Hmm?" Her phone went off again as Katana sent her a quick explanation for her. "'Ship happens', really?" She shrugged her shoulders. "Not the first time that's happened and certainly won't be the last." She was about to continue her greeting before stiffening and gaining a very heavy blush as someone was stroking one of her tails. "P-Please stop touching my tail."

Surprisingly the one who was touching her tail was Velvet, who immediately let go upon seeing the Kitsune's blush. "Oh, sorry. They just looked so fluffy that it was hard to resist." Velvet went back to beside her team leader and partner, Coco.

"It's okay, they're really sensitive so just ask before you touch them next time. Now, as I was saying. Welcome to my humble abode." She noticed that there was a new member to the audience. "Oh, it appears we have a new guest with us. Hello, young Emerald. Let me catch you up to speed on what's going on." She snapped her fingers before Neo, Cinder, and Emerald groaned from their sudden headaches.

The vixen chuckled a bit. "Memory magic, gotta love it." She clapped her hands to get their attention. "Now, I know Katana has you watching the MCU but she has challenged that someone handles some other Marvel properties. Luckily, I happen to enjoy two of those properties." She chuckled as she summoned an intricate looking katana. "The Blade trilogy. And a series that I have a feeling you all will enjoy." She carefully sheathed the katana and put it down on its stand before holding her hands close together at an inward angle. They were curious as to why she was doing that until she suddenly clenched her fists and three metallic blades came out from between her fingers on each hand, forming a large X between her fists. "The X-Men franchise."

Ruby's eyes were twinkling from seeing the kitsune's sword and metal claws. "So awesome. Can you teach me how to do that?"

The kitsune chuckled at the little reaper's enthusiasm. "Perhaps, but it will take time as it took me a few years to get it right." The metal claws went back into her arms before she smacked her forehead. "Oh, but where are my manners? For now, call me Skyguard. If you become comfortable with my presence during or after the first film, I might tell you all my first name. Also, I'm a kitsune or fox demon."

Cinder was looking at her palm after seeing what Skyguard had done as she wondered if it was possible to learn more advanced forms of her semblance. "Which are we watching first, Skyguard?"

"Blade. Fair warning though, this trilogy is very bloody so I will have self cleaning buckets ready for anyone that feels squeamish." She used her magic to change her outfit to tan cargo shorts and a black shirt that had a girl in a sailor uniform sitting on a crescent moon. "Much better. Now sit back and relax as we begin one of my favourite films, Blade." She brought up a remote and hit the play button as the lights turned down. "And just think of the food or drink you desire and it will come to you." She had a slice of pizza and some water as the film started.

Weiss looked around as she noticed that they were missing three people. "Wait! Where are Professors Goodwitch and Ozpin and General Ironwood?"

"Oh, Glynda might join us for X-Men. As for Ozpin and Ironwood?" Skyguard shrugged. "To put it simply, I don't trust them. Ozpin basically takes over someone else's body until the person's original personality no longer exists. I mean his next reincarnation was going to be a kid, a fucking kid! Who he would force to run away from his home, from his fucking family without leaving so much as a fucking note!" She was clearly getting angry as Ozpin's actions and choices really pissed her off. "As for Ironwood, he decides to go behind his supposed friends/allies' backs and brings a fucking army to a peaceful celebration which will, instead of bringing happiness, make people panic and attract Grimm thus likely getting dozens if not hundreds of civilians killed. So they will not be joining us at all, but Glynda is a possibility though." She sighed. "Not to mention she shares a voice with a certain badass in black." The group looked at each other in concern as she had a point about Ozpin and the General, they sat back and watched the movie
