Merry CRSMS is a Christmas special installment of The Alan 10 Adventures. It takes place between Parts 2 and 3 of RWBYA.
Plot
[The scene opened up in the Nomaly home. Christmas decorations were hung up, including a tree that had several bright colors. Despite the festive appearance, there was an obvious void in the mood. Jessica walked into the room and placed down a box gifted to Alan, looking at it with a sombre expression. The sound of the front door opening was heard. Jessica looked up to see Devin and Mason, wearing their ID masks to appear human, walking into the home.]
Jessica: Anything?
Mason: We checked out Richard's place and beat the shit out of Emina and Envy, but just kept on that both Alan and Richard left to some alternate world.
Devin: From what I could tell with mind reading, they were telling the truth.
Jessica: Did Alan go on purpose?
Devin: Sort of? Richard kidnapped Alan because he needed both Clockwork's time beams and Blamurai's sword to open up a portal to the other world, but Alan chased after him through the portal.
Jessica: Damnit. So it's not a case of just chasing after them.
[Alexis entered the room. The doorbell rang, and Alexis answered. Her face lit up for a moment before overcome with realization.]
Alexis: Oh. It's you.
[At the door was the Alan-looking Agent, whose bright smile fell at Alexis' response.]
Agent: "It's you?" I travel two thousand years from the first Christmas, and all I get is "Oh, it's you?!"
Alexis: No, I- [sighs] I'm sorry. It's just... Alan's missing.
[The Agent's face become filled with concern and confusion.]
Agent: Catch me up.
[A train station was seen not far from the shoreline. Qrow and Winter approached the heroes, giving out the train tickets.]
Qrow: Alright, here's the plan. [turns to Team JNR and Oscar] We're gonna take the Relic of Knowledge on our train.
Winter: [turns to Team RWBY and Alan] While we take the Relic of Creation on ours. Grimm will still be attracted to them, but things will go a lot easier if we have them separated for now.
[The whistles of the trains were heard.]
Ruby: I guess that's our cue.
Jaune: You guys be careful.
Weiss: You, too.
[As the heroes split off to their separate trains, Winter looked at Alan.]
Winter: Alan.
[Alan silently turned while continuing on his way to the train.]
Winter: From what I've gathered, you have an understanding of the Relics, yes?
Alan: To some extent. I wasn't able to get all the information from Ozpin's mind but... There's some there. Baseline knowledge, pretty much.
Winter: [sighs] I suppose that will have to do.
[Winter then went to give Alan the Relic of Creation, only for him to back away with his hands up.]
Alan: Whoa, whoa, whoa! [points to right wrist] You do know what happened the last time I had a super powerful weapon, right?
Winter: That's exactly why I'm giving this to you. You've lost your means of self defense, and until you get a new weapon, this may be your only chance at holding your own.
[Alan sighed and reluctantly took the Relic of Creation.]
Winter: I'll see you on the train.
[As Winter walked away, Alan looked down at the Relic and muttered to himself.]
Alan: My only chance, huh? Yeah... Assuming Oz even left us with any uses...
[The two trains eventually took off. It wasn't too long before Grimm started trailing them. Alan looked out the window to see the creatures approaching.]
Alan: Looks like we've got company.
Winter: You stay here. If things get out of hand, you've got the Relic.
Alan: Yeah. The Relic. Right.
