Part two of the fall of Beacon.

Vestra's POV

I was getting weaker I wasn't able to use the watch, Sandormeer was blocking my voice commands. I was stuck using my original weapon. I was using two balisword that were enbued with dust, in the hilts. When I folded them to the one lethal carrying device the dust in them would activate, and I could use them lethally. I had just taken out some Boarbatusks that decided to attack me. My team was no where to be seen, and it was getting harder to fight, I looked at my scroll, and saw that my aura was in the red.

"I need to fall back, take some time to heal," I said as I saw two paladins come towards me. The two mechs stopped in front of me, and stared down looking at me. "El Diablo," I said in a whisper.

After I said that a large deep purple hole opened up in between them cutting off half of the mechs, and a fist emerged. It started to make a gesture similar to that of someone knocking, and a voice rang out from the void, "knock knock," it said as the man from the Vytal Festival appeared from the void, "Hello."

I fell to my knees as two Faunus descended from the sky one with beautiful white wings, and a very noticeable scarf, and one with dark black wings. They landed on the shoulders of the mechs on either side of the rift. "You called?" They both said simultaneously.

I just sat there not knowing what to do, "uh thanks?" I said confused as I stood. As I stood I looked at the man simply staring at him saying nothing.

"Angel, Dawn I'm fine to handle this on my own, can you guys go help with the rest of the Grimm?" I asked as I stepped out of the void.

"Look uh about how I acted during the Vytal Festival I just wanted to say that I'm sor-" I started saying but was cut off by a sharp pain in my back as my aura depleted. I fell onto the ground, and turned around as a Death Stalker looked me dead in the eyes.

I looked up, and saw its bulbous tail aimed at me. "No," I said tearing up, before the tail started falling fast stabbing through my torso. I cried out, and started to actually cry as my eyes closed, and my life slowly ended.

Muerte's POV

I sat there looking at Necrosis standing on the shoulders of the giant she just created. "Okay let's do this," she said as the golem started to move forward. As it got within striking distance the mech stuck the golem dead in the chest causing it to stumble back.

Necrosis lost her balance, and started to fall off. "Necrosis!" I said moving forward fast. The golem had other plans though. With incredible speed not what you'd think a giant would have, the golem spun around to the left side, and grabbed her with his right hand before spinning back to the right throwing her into the air using the speed from the turn to launch her higher than Beacon tower. "Huh," I said standing there shrugging.

Haven Tourists POV

I was walking down the dirt path on the outskirts of the city far away from beacon tower, deciding to see it one more time before continuing on to the docks to head back home to Haven I turned, and saw a humanoid shape get launched into the air.

I reached into my back pocket, and pulled out a notebook with a "to-do list" on it.

See Beacon Tower ✔️

Try new foods ✔️

Buy souvenirs ✔️

Go to the book store 'Tukson's Book Trade' ✔️

See someone fly

"Well I guess now I can check off that last one" I said as I grabbed a pen.

See someone fly ✔️

"There we go, now back to Haven" I said walking away.

Muerte's POV

I watched as Necrosis was thrown into the air. Her golem punched the mech sending pieces of its body to make a longer range attack. It continued its assault on the mech before reaching out with the left catching Necrosis. It opened its palm, and she was sat cross legged holding her tiny flame in her hands smiling, and giggling like a little girl before the golem threw her flying into the air again. "So EsDeath," I said as I activated my shield throwing a bunch of Grimm who lunged at me. I looked at the Grimm, and watched as they all got sent flying. I started spinning taking apart my Neceli, and separating it into Naraka, and Caeli.

"Yah what's up," I heard my brother say through the comm. After he spoke to me I started spinning again, and during the spin I deactivated, and reactivated my shield as I fired out shots from my muskets into the heads, and chests of all the Grimm. I shot the fire shot into their heads, and the lightning shot into their chest causing them to explode.

"I don't know if that golem is a good guy or a bad guy," I said stopping watching the golem throw Necrosis into the air again before slamming its clasped fists onto the top of the mech crushing it into the ground, but not defeating it. It held its hand out, and caught Necrosis again to which he quickly launched her up. "Mainly because it keeps throwing Necrosis into the air constantly, while fighting this Paladin."

"Well at least it's fighting for her, wait a second, what golem!?" I heard EsDeath ask confused.

The golem punched into the paladin with enough force to cause a massive explosion destroying its one arm, and blowing out its legs. Necrosis saw this, and started to panic as the golem fell onto its chest. Slowly it pushed itself up, and using the last of its power pushed itself onto its back destroying one side of its body, and raised its arm catching her. The golem lost all its strength as its arm just fell to the side, before it turned back to rubble. "Never mind don't worry about the golem," I said to EsDeath as I ran over to Necrosis.

EsDeath's POV

"No!" I said as I rushed over the girl I was talking to but it was too late. The tail has struck down, and ended her life. I felt my anger increase drastically as I watched the light fade from her eyes. I saw a shine coming from Midnight Assassin, as I looked, and watched as it went to Operation XII, an Operation I never use, simply because it never activated. Every time I used Operation XII it would simply pull out my normal armour coating my the entire length of both my arms, and my legs. But this time I didn't care to figure out what was going on.

I looked up at the Death Stalker as it pulled its bulb out of the girl, and started walking towards me. I yelled at it, and charged lunging pulling my left arm back. When I got closer to it I swung down, and struck the Death Stalker on the top of it head. I watched as it exploded in flames as my fist collided with it. I looked in amazement as stone started to breach through its body starting from just near where my fist collided moving down the Grimm's body.

I moved away from the Grimms fading body, and looked at my armour. The armour was different from its normal colour. This time it was coloured a fluorescent scarlet red on the left side, and a bright beige on the right side. "What the?" I said to myself as I reached for Tri-Ferra. Only to find that my blade was gone. I looked back at the armour, and realized what happened. Operation XII had absorbed the blade infusing its dust qualities into the armour giving it an explosive kick.

I sighed, and walked over to the girl's body, and crouched down next to her. "Operation I," I said sadly, and watched the armour go away. I reached back for Tri-Ferra but felt something different. When I reached back I pulled out a blade, but the blade was different from before. Instead of having the three dust lanes going through it, it had one large dust lane going through the middle that split into separate paths a little below the middle of the blade. Where it split was a circle that had a design that looked exactly like Midnight Assassin except the hand of the watch was on XII, and didn't look like it could change. The one long lane was filled with the blue dust I used for water. I put the blade back in its sheath, and picked up the girl.

Nevia's POV

I was walking along a path with my two brothers, Astrid, and Razen we were in a hurry trying to find our sister because we had seen on the scroll her aura depleted. We were looking around the courtyard scanning the areas all around us. Finally we rounded a corner, and saw a man dressed in black with a cloak that had a cyan flame on it, he had exceptionally long blond hair. The hair, and the cloak were flapping backwards in the breeze as he stood there, holding our sister. Razen flipped.

"What did you do to her!" He said as he charged towards the man. The man silently turned, and looked at us angrily.

"I didn't do anything," He said as he pointed to the fading remnants of a Death Stalker, "I protected her from two of those paladins, but I didn't notice the Death Stalker in time, I'm so sorry."

He motioned for my brother to hold out his arms, and hesitantly, and shakingly he held out his arms. The man slowly put my sister into his arms. Razen fell to the ground holding her as he started sobbing uncontrollably. The man looked me, "I'm so sorry for your loss," he said as he turned around slowly, and walked away. Me, and Astrid walked over to Vestra, and knelt down beside Razen. I noticed her watch had come off, and I grabbed it.

It looked just like the one the man was wearing so I thought it best to give it to him. I stood turning towards where the man was, but he wasn't there. "Good luck," I said as I clutched the watch my arms shaking.

EsDeath's POV

I came back out of the rift in a field filled with Grimm, both alive, and dead. There was a fading goliath, and hundreds of other dead Grimm, I also saw hundreds more coming into the city, I started to get angrier feeling the futility of fighting. But it was my job. I decided to take the risk, "Operation XIV," I said falling to my knees as the armour emerged from my skin. I looked down at my hands, and saw metal claws emerging from the tips of my fingers. I looked up at the Grimm, and charged.

Muerte was being covered in Grimm, she was unable to do the tactic of firing out of her rapidly deactivating shield. I sprinted towards her, and started slashing at the Beowolfs there. I cut Beowolfs in half, I could cut Ursa into multiple pieces before they could even get in a swing, I could stab through Boarbatusk armour even. I felt this power, and it was amazing. Until I felt it take control. Slowly I started to feel as though I wasn't in control, and after killing close to a hundred Grimm, maybe more, I lost control of my body. Animalistic instinct took over, and I found prey in everyone.

I turned to Muerte, and started walking towards her slowly, not seeing a sister. But prey. "EsDeath what are you doing?" She asked me, as I slowly walked towards her ignoring her pleas. I got within range, and lunged.

During the lunge someone moved in front of me, punching me in the face knocking me backwards. I looked up, and saw new prey. I saw my friend Xavier.

There we go, now you've learned what really happens with Beast Mode. Why Utruban locked it away. As it is used it takes control of the users mind, and will cause them to go insane. But what happens next is the true amazement. Oh, and so you know the next chapter was written with help from my friend as it is a collaborative chapter that he will have on his RWBY fanfic as well so huge thank you to A. El Diablo. Until next time.
