The students of Beacon all gathered together in the auditorium after the announcement way made, the room filled with chatter and laughs. Weiss and Ruby would be looking around, wondering where the heck Yang was. Eventually there would be a tapping sound on the microphone, as Glinda Goodwitch stood on the stage over the crowd of students.

"Attention students of Beacon!" Glinda said firmly. "Please silence yourselves and pay close attention. This is an emergency announcement."

Suddenly, the entire auditorium fell silent.

"I have with me two members of the VPD, detective Judy and Detective Nick, here too deliver some news... Please give them your full attention." Glinda said stepping to the side while Judy stepped up to the microphone, Nick having to lower the microphone due to her size.

"Thank you miss Goodwitch." Judy said clearing her throat and looking out over the crowd. "Students of Beacon academy, please remain where you are, keep calm and do not panic from what i am about to say."

This warning only managed to make the crowd nervous, many students shifting in their seats nervously.

"Over the last two days, my partner Nick and i have been investigating a series of murders over beacon, some of which seem to have been beacon students themselves-" Judy was suddenly interrupted by a roar of surprised reactions before quieting them all down. "Everybody please settle down! I need you all to pay close attention!"

Ruby and Weiss both looked at each other, each of them looking like the wanted to run out of the Auditorium right there. As they looked at each other though, Yang would suddenly plop down in a seat next to Ruby.

"Yang! Where have you been?!" Weiss said to the blonde.

"Taking care of business..." Was all Yang would say before Judy finally got the whole crowd quiet.

"Now. We believe that the murderer has either made their way into the school, or is in fact a student here themself. Now, because of this we ask that all students please stay in your teams, and never go off alone without them." Judy would say, working the crowd up again, this time, they were full on panicking.

Students looking back and forth at each other, worried expressions across all of their faces, quickly started to discuss guesses as to who it might be. Some accused particular students that stood out from the norm, other began to say that it was probably just a stranger. All in all though, the students were stirred up, and soon, tensions became high, until all the lightgs suddenly cut out all at the same time. Suddenly, the whole auditorium roared with cries of fear, worried that this loss of lights was cuased by the alleged serial killer, And in a way, they were right...

...Moments ago...

Neo awoke to find herself hanging in a dark room by her wrists, with only a furnace not far from her to light up the room. Slowly, she opened her eyes to see Blake sharpening her blade, while her coat hung on the back of the chair she was using, and her mask sitting on the desk just next to her. Seeing her captor distracted, Neo looked up to see that her restraints were rather thick looking ropes. Quietly, she'd try to bend and twist her hands just right to see if she could get herself loose, and it was working. Slowly, Neo's hands started to come loose from the ropes, until finally she dropped to the floor silently.

Neo would keep her eyes on Blake at all times, making sure she stayed focused on her blade. Looking around, Neo tried to find something, anything to fight against Blake with. Finally, she'd spot it. Cinder's bow, lying just on the opposite side of the room as Blake. Slowly, she would make her way to the bow, making sure to keep quiet should Blake hear her. Luckily, she managed to make it to the bow without much trouble. Finding an arrow to go with it, Neo slowly began to draw the bow back, taking aim at the back of Blake's head.

For the first time in her life, Neo muttered only a single word. "Die..."

Letting the string go, Neo fired the arrow straight at Blake's head, only for the Cat faunus to turn around and catch the arrow at the very last second. Neo's heart sank as she watched as Blake stared her down and dropped the arrow to the ground. Neo was paralyzed with fear, only coming out of her trance when Blake picked up her blade and came charging after Neo. With only that one arrow to fire, Neo dropped the bow and made a mad sprint for the stairs, Blake close behind. Neo could've gotten away, she was so close that he had the door knob in her hand. Unfortunately, the door was a pull open, and all Blake needed was that fraction of a second to grab Neo by her leg and yank her back down the stairs.

Neo screamed out as she was yanked back down the stairs, Blake slamming Neo against the wall as she walked up the stairs and shut the door, locking it. Neo, her body riddled with pain, stood up and ran through the hallway that led out of the boiler room and into the basement. Blake ran down the stairs to see Neo just turning the corner and quickly followed her.

Neo's breath was rough and rapid, sprinting for her life as she tried to get away from the maniac chasing her. One wrong turn though, and a stray nail jutting out from the wall took a good clean cut from Neo's arm, as she held back the urge to yelp from the pain. Looking around Neo found herself in the generator room, the loud hum of electricity wirring throughout the whole room. From the light of the exit, Neo could see the shadow of Blake as she quickly made her way closer and closer to ending Neo's life for good. Neo panicked. She needed to find somewhere to hide. Somewhere safe. In a blind panic, Neo quickly scanned around for somewhere, anywhere to hide...

Blake walked into the generator room and slowly looked around. Generators, a few tools here and there and some crates for storing parts. No sign of Neo anywhere, until Blake picked up a peculiar scent. Looking to the wall, Blake saw one stray nail sticking out of the wall, a drop of blood visible on it. Slowly walking over Blake wiped the nail with her finger and tasted the blood. It was a bit sweet oddly, but there was no mistaking it now... Neo was here...

Neo was hunched over in a fetal position, doing her best to keep her breath quiet as she hid in the empty box originally made for parts of a generator, but for her it was a safe haven... At least for now... Blake realized that the loud rumble and humming of the generators would block out any sound, so she wouldn't be able to listen for Neo's humming. Luckily for Blake though, Neo's cut still left behind that faintly sweet scent. Sniffing at she walked, Blake followed the scent of Neo to a pile of wooden crates of parts. Looking them over and sniffing, Blake wouldn't decide directly which box Neo would be hiding in, so instead, she started ripping open the crates one by one, tossing the ones that were either empty or filled with parts.

Neo sat by as she heard each and every crate before hers crashing against the ground one-by-one. Tears began to run her dry and Neo held back the sounds of her desire to sob, more scared than she has every been in her life. Neo closed her eyes as she waited for Blake to rip open her back and stab her to death. Rip her head off. Strangle her. But as she waited for her demise to come, the sounds stopped... Neo opened her eyes and listened carefully, only the hum of the generators could be heard. Neo for waited for what seemed like years before she began to shuffle. Placing her hands on the lid of the box, she slowly peeked out of the box to search for Blake. Nothing.

Lifting up the lid of the box. Neo quickly jumped out and looked around. Seeing no trace of Blake besides the numerous splinters and metal scraps littering the room from her little rampage, Neo quickly made her way to the exit, a dash of hope in her heart that she was gonna live. She was goona make it out alive! And just as quickly as they came, all those hopes left her. As she turned the corner, she was met with Blake, who swung the large monkey wrench she had picked up and knocked Neo over the head with it, sending her flying back. Neo's head felt like it was split open, blood pournig down the side of her face as she struggled to stand back up.

Blake walked over to the nearly unconcious ice-cream themed girl and picked her up by her hair. Neo quickly regained her sense of where she was, as she started kicking and screaming, struggling as Blake dragged her over to one of the running generators. Picking up Neo, as she kicked and screamed at Blake, she rose her up and slammed her down into the generator, breaking open it's protective shell. Sparks flew and lights flickered as Neo felt the full power of the generator frying her alive. Neo spasmed and twitched, her eyes rolling upward as foam starting forming from her mouth, as the electricity started by cooking her skin, then her meat, until Neo was nothing more than a grilled piece of meat until the generator exploded, hurdling Neo's dead body across the room.

Neo lay motionless, as the stench of her cooked flesh filling the room to the brim. Blake, with the use of her faunus nightvision, walked over and stood over Neo's dead body, until finally walking out finally. Now the place was in perfect condition... It was dark, there was no escape, and all the lambs were gathered in one place for the slaughter... and it was gonna be a lovely day...
