The ManyVids 2025 logo appears, but it glitches into a simple heart. A voiceover—Lana’s real voice—says:
(A single, unlisted video appears on her channel at 3:00 AM. Title: “The Fractured Mirror – Director’s Cut.” Runtime: 0:01. The video is just a mirror reflection of Lana blinking twice. Then she winks. Then the video deletes itself.)
“Hey, Corsairs,” she says, her voice low. “You know I love RWBY. But this year… Rooster Teeth is gone. The IP is fragmented. The Grimm are in the public domain. And I’ve got a legal loophole the size of a Leviathan.”
She holds up three masks: Ruby’s silver-eyed visor, Weiss’s tiara, and Blake’s bow. Then she tosses them aside. ManyVids 2025 Lana Rain RWBY Choose Your Own Gi...
“They sold us out,” she whispers to you. “The fans. The platforms. They want us to be cute catgirls. Not revolutionaries.”
“Three paths. Three endings. One rule: Don’t trust the mirror. Make your choice in the comments below by 11:59 PM EST. The most voted path gets filmed. The other two? Lost to the void.”

You choose Ruby. The VR pod hisses. Suddenly, you are weightless, soaring over a ruined Vale. Lana’s voice becomes an AI whisper in your ear: “Echo activated. You are Ruby Rose—but her memories are corrupted. All you remember is the need to run.”
“Forget the heroes. Tonight, you’re not watching me play a part. You’re in the simulation. An experimental Atlas VR pod. You’re a newly awakened ‘Echo’—a copy of a fallen Huntress’s soul. And the real Lana Rain? I’m your ‘Handler.’ But the system is broken. Every choice you make fractures reality.”
You land in a clearing. And there she is: Lana Rain, dressed not as Ruby, but as a twisted version of her—a “Grimm Ruby.” Her cloak is tattered black bone. Her eyes bleed red. She holds Crescent Rose, but the blade is alive, writhing with malice. The video is just a mirror reflection of Lana blinking twice
You choose Weiss. The simulation shifts to a sterile Schnee Dust boardroom. Lana Rain wears a perfect, pristine Weiss combat skirt, but her expression is hollow. She sits at a long table across from you. Between you is a single Myrtenaster revolver, its chambers loaded not with dust, but with contracts.
“You’re late, sister,” she snarls. “You abandoned us at Beacon. You let Penny die. Again.”
Starring Lana Rain as “The Cosplay Corsair” Tagline: “One Huntress. Three Paths. No Safe Choices.”
You look closer. The contract has a clause: “The Echo agrees to all future RWBY crossovers, including but not limited to: NSFW variants, AI-generated clones, and memory harvesting for training LanaBot-3.”
