Added intro N.05
After dealing with yesterday, I walked to the school to find it closed for the day but, being the curious and mischievous person I am, I ignored that and found a way in...what I expected to find was a victim, not the person that caused it all to happen...but not in the way I expected it to go...

"Okay, from what Weiss told me, there's more to this school's past than meets the eye...I just gotta sneak in, help the people I need to help and let this school be forever burned out of my memory as well as all of their copies deaths and original's deaths..." I said to myself as I looked for a way in due to the school being closed for some reason. I found a door and noticed the lock was a complicated puzzle with buttons and sliders so I, out of instinct and not wanting to be bested by a simple puzzle after going so far, started working on solving it, succeeding in the end and went inside the school.
After walking in, I immediately stopped before I let the laser trap activate the alarms, stepping over it and started searching everywhere until I spotted a door I've never seen before...
"...Okay, I know from memory this wasn't here before...is this the place I'll find answers to my questions? Why all this started?" I said to myself as I looked at the door. It was dark green and had a brighter green gear in the centre of it and, judging by the looks of it, hasn't been opened for years...
Keeping that in mind, I open the door and walk inside, seeing gears rotating on the floor and ceiling before spotting a desk with newspapers and files about my friends and others that had went missing...this has been going on way before my friends got taken and I don't like that it has after seeing them in Weiss' picture.
"Ah so you're Ms Song I presume?" I heard from behind me, making me turn around. After I turned around I saw someone I don't recognise, making me cautious of his actions.
"There's no need to be wary of me Ms Song, I won't harm you" He said as I widen my eyes slightly, surprised that he knew I was being cautious as the gears rotate to fill the silence.
"...Who are you?" I asked him after I calmed myself down and looked at the stranger.
"My name is Ozpin, I'm only here because Glynda is keeping me here as a puppet if you can call me that" He said, making me remember some of the words Cardin said the first day.
"Were you the one that was talking to me instead of Cardin? The first minute I mean not the end" I asked out of curiosity...some of the words Cardin said didn't match his personality and made me keep those in the back burner to use later...guess this is the right time to ask.
"Yes Ms Song, I was trying to communicate with you through him before Glynda found out and brought me back here...I've seen all that's she's done and I am terribly sorry..." He answered with a look of regret.
"You don't need to feel sorry...you didn't kill them, she did and I don't blame you for all this when you didn't want this to happen..." I told him, looking at him with a calm look on my face as I reach out for my gun, knowing what he'd want me to do as he turned away...I think I know why she closed the school for today...she closed it to stop me from freeing the man in front of me, wanting to keep him here unlike the others she let me free...but I've got a role to play and that's making sure everyone gets out of here safely.
"Yes but I did start it...could you please end it and make sure no else dies here?" he asked me, knowing I've got my gun out as I aimed it at his back.
"I will make sure to do that, I promise" I said to him, ready to shoot when he says to.
"Before I go I should tell you this...one of your friends is still alive, Ms Polindina I believe...she's trapped in one of the closets with a broken leg and needs some help" Ozpin told me, making me widen my eyes in surprise and smile in joy...guess I won't be surviving this alone.
"Thank you Ozpin, for giving me hope that I'll save a friend of mine today" I said, seeing him nod as I shot at him, seeing him fade into green gears like the one on the door, leaving behind a photo album with his symbol on it.
I picked it up and looked through it, seeing his life to his death...what I saw I didn't expect to see.
I saw Ozpin with gunshot wounds on his chest being hugged by Goodwitch, who was crying as she was hugging his body while a bloodied crowbar was beside her. I also saw another body behind her with a familiar gun in his left hand, his right hand missing and his face mashed up badly, making me connect the dots shown to me...so this is what he meant when he said he started it...he died the same time her sanity did, all of this to happen after it went...
"You're wrong Ozpin, you didn't start it, you didn't know it was gonna go down hill like this so I won't blame ya for starting this...I blame her for the decisions she made to cause all this when she could've just moved on..." I said to where he was as I closed the book and went outside.
I searched the closets till I got to the one were Penny was in, seeing her unconscious in a corner and handcuffed to a drain pipe.
Not wanting to search for the key and not minding about the mess it'll cause since I hate this place, I used all my strength to pull the pipe from the wall, sliding the handcuffs off of the pipe as I picked Penny up and ran to the nearest police station so they can help her...I'm still needed here to save my last friend and family member.
