SONG Chapter 37
Oliver and Naomi were immediately on edge and ready to fight, but they didn't have their weapons and to make matters worse a nevermore was trying to get past the energy shield.
"What are we gonna do, what are we gonna do?" Naomi was panicking, she was so scared and she didn't have her weapon to help.
The Nevermore screeched like a soul ridden man searching for the pleasure of death, it's roar echoed deeply through the stadiums' chairs.
Oliver had run off to help evacuate civilians as he had done in the past with Adrian, that was a hell of time then; bloodshed, chaos, destruction, it had almost felt like war. If Oliver could do it then he could do it now, he's a good leader, but he wasn't good at decision making and problem-solving on the spot. He saw over from the arena that Beacon was under attack horribly by the Grimm too. He started leading people with the soldiers into the ships to get back to Vale for a haven.
The huge Nevermore broke through the barrier at last and ripped its deadly claws into the stadium ground, it screeched at Ruby who was right in front of her, it moved forward to eat her.
The beast took one step then it was pinned to the ground with lockers used to transport gear, Naomi quickly called hers down and got her weapon and armor, it was all she needed if she needed to survive the night. Almost everything, she had almost forgotten about the most important part, her team. She couldn't do this without the help of her team, Oliver was helping evacuate civilians, Grant was somewhere down at Beacon and by the Gods, she didn't have a clue where Alex was.
The Nevermore wasn't done yet though, the huge beast stood up and roared. Everyone gathered and attacked it in sync with each other, Nora slammed its head with her hammer and two students she only kinda knew, Yatsuhashi and Sage dealt the final blow.
"Well, that's at least one less problem to worry about," Naomi said as the corpse of the huge bird turned to ashes. She glared up at the stars in the night sky they were so beautiful and calming, however, beauty left them a long time ago. Dozens of griffins started to fly into the arena, surrounding and cornering the students into one big circle.
Just when the Grimm moved in to attack Professor Port as well as Professor, sorry, Doctor Oobleck appeared.
Prf. Port shot and killed one of the Grimm that had jumped on to Ruby's weapon locker before she could grab it. They spoke together with the same idea, protect the citizens, protect the school. Most importantly though, don't die.
The students left in a hurry to go and fight the Grimm for their school. Naomi however, went to the prep rooms in the back to try to find Alex, by some sliver of hope she wanted him to be back there, she wanted him to be near-by and safe.
"There's no need to worry about him he rejected you, Idiot!" She started thinking to herself.
"He's my teammate and, my team's leader I can't leave him that easily."
"He gave on you that easily, you're as easy to replace as a pencil there's no reason to keep trying to find him, he doesn't need you."
"Shut up." She was arguing with herself now.
"Is that it, you don't want to be told the sad truth."
"I said shut up."
"He's gonna leave and replace you, just like mom did."
"SHUT UP!" Naomi shouted at the top of her lungs, her fear and doubt were getting to her and she didn't want it to. Especially at a time like this.
"ALEX! ALEEEEEX!" she called his name, her voice echoed through the locker room but no answer, all she could hear was screaming and fighting outside. "He can't leave me like this" she sat on the floor holding herself and crying. "Please, I can't have another person leave me like this." she started to cry deeply. A huge explosion broke her concentration, she wiped her face and went outside to find the person she wanted to keep, not as a lover, but as a friend.
Two of the massive Atlas military air-crafts collide together and burned, both nose-diving into the town below. Grimm flew and jumped everywhere she looked, she saw General Ironwood gather people up and give them a speech she just couldn't wait for the slow ships so she teleported to her room.
She got in the dorm room and it was surprisingly calm inside and the building was still intact. For about three seconds then huge Ursa's busted through the door inside, along with countless Creeps and Beowulfs. Way too much for one person to handle alone, then an idea popped into her head. When they overthrew the corrupt police officers they had a special tool just for the job.
She shoved a dresser away from the wall. Behind it was a blast-proof safe, that couldn't be dented with an explosive known to man and Grimm kind. She put Enrathi's weapons in there that they had, a jacket Grant wouldn't shut up about made of leather, and a picture of Weiss that was sitting on Alex's desk.
Grant didn't have any pictures of Yang, the only one he had he kept in his wallet sometimes to remind him of her, sometimes to remind him to get his wallet before he left the room every day.
Meanwhile back at the docs, Grant and Yang had been fighting Grimm, White Fang, and Atlas Robots for about an hour. Grant had been trying to get in contact with Alex but he wasn't answering his scroll, Yang was able to get into contact Blake and Weiss, they were at the fairgrounds and making their way to the docks. No word from Ruby, she was worried about her. Until she saw a rocket locker flying through the sky with a bright red streak on top of it, that's my girl, Yang thought to herself.
Grant has finished off the last of the Grimm and White Fang in his area, he looked back at Yang who had done the same, "I haven't been able to get in contact with my team, how about you?"
"Weiss and Blake are on their way here, and Ruby." She looked at the Atlas Flagship she landed on. "She's doing just fine."
"Let's meet your team at the docks and get everyone out of here," Grant said, he and Yang made their way to the docks. As they ran, something crossed Grant's mind. "Hey what are we gonna do once we get everyone outta here? I don't have a place to go, and I'm not in the mood to get back to Vacuo."
"I mean, my place is just Ruby, me, and my dad, I don't think he would mind if you and your team moved in for a few months, just until things calm down," Yang said with a hint of joy in her voice.
"Your dad doesn't care that his daughter's boyfriend is living with her in his house," Grant asked, he didn't want to sound unhappy, he would love to move in with Yang, but Grant was always a skeptic about everything.
"He'll live." She smiled
"I love you, you know that," Grant asked, flirtatiously.
"I know," Yang said back.
No one else was left in the building other than herself, she went back to the room and got the other crate in the room, the one filled with explosives. She quickly armed all of them and threw all the blast caps in there, along with all but one detonator.
She ran through the halls to the opposite side of the building where the Grimm was, she pushed that huge crate into the pile of pitch-black evil. She teleported out of the building and into the front of it and hit the detonator.
A huge explosion erupted, blowing up the entire right wing of the dormitory. Grimm was thrown everywhere, in tiny bits and pieces, there were so many of them.
"Goodbye, so many happy memories." Naomi ran into the night to find Alex.
Blake and Weiss were standing side-by-side fighting with each other as a team, there were Grimm terrorizing everyone. Just when they had thought the end was over the Atlassian knights had turned on them too, they started firing at them. Blake and Weiss stood up after ducking from the heavy fire. They cut down every knight that stood in their path.
When they got to the courtyard, it was filled with Grimm and the robotic soldiers. Suddenly a huge robotic paladin dropped from the sky along with an Alpha Beowulf. Weiss turned her head over her shoulder and said "be careful"
"You too," Blake said they ran off, Weiss to the paladin and Blake to the Beowulf. The Beowulf ran around a corner and Blake chased after it, she stopped in her tracks to look in a burned building to her side. She saw a man with a White Fang mask across his eyes, deep red hair, and a massive katana.
He looked at her and spoke, "Hello darling."
Ya boy is back and not better than ever, but hey I'm back. You can also expect more chapters from now on so hey that's pretty nice, not just for this one, for others too but this will be my main story I focus on.
