Chapter 70 Battle of Argus part 2

(Location: Argus coast line northern region of the Anima continent Kingdom of Mistral Remnant)

The fight with the flying Grimm hasn't been an easy one. The Atlas fighters have lost so many comrades and reinforcements have not made a difference. But it wasn't all lost, as they've been able to killed a fair share of the creatures. Their odds of winning were pretty slim and with the Leviathan closing in on the city, it was going to get worse. Some of the Manticores and Sphinx took the chance to fly towards the city. Not a good sign because the ground troops were still evacuating the people to the shelters. If they get to them, they will panicked more allowing more Grimm to come. They needed more pilots or it won't take long before Argus gets overtaken. Not to mention they had no idea how to deal with the Leviathan. It was slow but it has proven to pack a lot of strength making up for it's sloppy speed. Surely, they thought it couldn't possibly get any worse than now. They were wrong.

The fighters present, the soldiers back at the base mainly the ones at the control room. Cordovin and everyone watching with shocked expressions. It wasn't easy for the pilots to focus on the flying Grimm because another creature has arrived. The thing was bigger than the Leviathan. An enormous dragon, it's body black with thick scales, sharp claws, fangs and large wings. It might share similar colors with the Grimm but it didn't looked like one. It was hard to decide but to all Atlas soldiers, it was just another threat. At this rate, Cordo had no idea what to do. She had any men left to fight and her other forces were still busy with evacuation. At least those hijackers and criminals volunteered to help. Not like she was expecting they will do much considering the numbers of the enemy. The woman was worried and upset, is this how Argus was going to fall. Under her watch, will she fail to protect everyone. The weapon designed to fight giant Grimm has been totaled thanks to those brats.

Velvet kept looking around. Not a pretty sight for the Altesian forces. Her mind and heart were still the same when she transformed. She believed her students will be able to fend off any Grimm that comes to the city. Hopefully, the soldiers will be done with the evacuating when more of them arrive. She has bigger things to worry about as her sight went to the Leviathan. The giant Grimm stood still for a little while when it realized this thing before it, wasn't friendly. It was in the way from getting to its target. A hostile that needed to be taken out. The dragon knew what to do. First, she needed to get it as far away from the city as possible. After that, she can fight it and kill it. Ruby's silver eyes weren't strong enough to stop it so the older Crowe was expecting a tough battle. The dragon made the first move using it's wings to fly. It charged right at the Leviathan tackling it before grabbing it.

The soldiers in the air and the ones watching at the control tower were all speechless. Usually they were expecting this new creature to start making it's way to the city with the Leviathan, but they were wrong. The sight alone was enough to tell them that it sees the giant Grimm as an enemy. So many questions were running through their heads. Why was this thing fighting it. Was it having a turf war no, that was impossible. Grimm weren't like that. The Leviathan just wanted to attack the city because it's being attracted by so many negative emotions just like the flying ones. This thing is different but going after the big one had them confused. Velvet used all her strength to tackle the Leviathan as it was flying with her. Letting it go it hit the water with a big splash. They were far enough from the city now. Good, now she won't have to worry about this thing getting to the people. The rest will be up to her students.

The Leviathan was about to attack, ready to release the fire blast that it used to destroy the shield that protects Argus. The black dragon beat it to it, charging again. This time, the older used a combination of her claws and tail. Giving the giant Grimm a beating. The creature gave a growl that it wasn't happy. Looks like it was no longer focusing in reaching the city anymore. It's sights were now on this hostile threat. It charged at the dragon using it's claw and tail, similar to what the older Crowe did. It flew off dodging the attacks countering with a tail swipe. It went with it's claws hurting the Leviathan, then followed with a bite to it's neck. She wasn't done wrapping her tail on the neck on the large Grimm it was in trouble now. It tried to break away, attempting to use the fire blast attack. It countered using it's claws on the dragon's tail, Velvet felt the pain roaring in it's animal form but cursing in her human mind.

Looks like this thing wasn't as stupid as it looks. The Leviathan changed it's battle strategy diving into the water. The dragon stood calm gazing around. It was all quiet while there was no sing of the Grimm. She had a bad feeling about this. There was no way it would run away. The black dragon thought ahead, taking off into the air. Keeping herself off the water was a good strategy. The Leviathan was trying to find a way to have the advantage in the water, it wasn't going to happen. Until the tail emerged taking one of the legs dragging it back to the water. It was swimming faster than usual while Velvet was cursing, it was being smart. She couldn't stay in the water for too long because dragons can't hold their breath underwater. That has to be its plan, to keep her underwater until she suffocates. The former therion will have to take a risk to break away from the Leviathan's grip.

Unleashing her malevolence for a quick time she broke free and went back to the surface to catch her breath. The Leviathan emerged getting close to the dragon. Surprising the transformed woman with the fire blast. Shooting it at close range, she will be done for. Until she covered the mouth with both of her hands then, went with her claws piercing the white armor of the creature. It gave a cry of pain as it was Velvet's chance to counter attack. It used a headbutt, followed by another tail swipe, then back with her claws. The giant Grimm was hurt as the dragon grabbed it again taking it high in the air. It flew off high, flying in circles before diving into the sea and throwing the Leviathan hard. The black dragon kept flying until she can see the Grimm emerging. It might try to catch her by surprise like last time. If it comes down to it she will have to use a break arte. But doing so will cost her a lot of her energy and stamina, meaning she won't be able to keep this form for too long.

The older Crowe kept her attention as the Leviathan burst from the water jumping at her. This shocked her, expecting it will use it's tail again to try and drown her. But it literally jumped right after her. She didn't had enough time to dodge as the giant Grimm tackled her, back to the water. Using it's claws and tail making contact with the black dragon. Finishing the combo with the fire blast as Velvet acted swiftly. Using her claws to hold the mouth of the creature. The attack was still going to make contact. She needed to act fast or she will be in trouble. There weren't any Atlas ships around and they were still far from the city. Just as it was about to release the fire attack, the former daemon made the creature changed direction. Moving the head upward as it fire the attack right at the sky. The dragon countered with her claws, tail and a bite, following it up with a quick air combo. The Leviathan was sure being owned by the mighty black dragon.

(Music end)

Back at the control room from the military base everyone was in awe. This dragon was beating the crap out of the Leviathan. None of them knew what to do. Should they be scared, happy or maybe cheer this thing on. It was fighting the giant Grimm and it was winning so far. It was complete silence as the staff personnel resumed watching the fight between the two creatures. It was impossible for Grimm to fight each other, unless this dragon wasn't one. There was no such thing as a dragon unless it's a Grimm type. So why was it fighting one of their own. They're supposed to be on the same side. They didn't had time to be finding answers to questions they didn't know. Cordovin got over her shock seeing this fight between monsters a chance to aid her forces at the city. A rare time to be setting aside her pride and arrogance focusing on her duty to protect the citizens of Argus.

"What is the status of the evacuation team?"

"Um...All civilians are almost in the shelters. Only thirty minutes before they're all in. Some Grimm have already infiltrated the city but thankfully they're been beaten by a group of Huntsmen and Huntresses. Their numbers are being reduced as I speak."

Cordo frowned it has to be those brats that damaged her favorite mech. At least they were doing something helpful. Still, it won't be enough to erase their crimes. They will be punish if its the last thing she does. But now, that wasn't important at the moment. As a soldier of Atlas her duty was the safety of the people above all. Yet not all of them will be able to take out so many of them no matter how good they are.

"Send what we have left of our air forces to support our ground forces and those Huntsmen. With the shield down, there is no stopping those flying Grimm from approaching Argus. Once all of the citizens have been safely secure into the shelters we will hit them with everything we've got!"

"Yes ma'am!"

"And the Leviathan?"

"That dragon, whatever it is its handing it for the time being. We don't know if it poses a threat yet. But right now, it's buying us time. Time, that we must not waste."

"What if it decides to go to the city after it deals with the Leviathan?"

"We will cross that bridge when we get there" Cordovin did had an ace in the hole if it comes down to that.

Qrow fired his weapon it wouldn't be long before the flying Grimm would reached the city. It wasn't that bad since the Atlas soldiers have done a good job evacuating almost every one of the citizens to the shelters. The city was big so they will have enough space to fight the creatures. But there were so many of them that not even the air forces couldn't deal with them. This was starting to look worse than Beacon and Haven. They weren't that much of them. Even a Huntsman like himself knew of his limits, semblance and all. Not to mention it was becoming a pain getting a clear shot at these things. The Manticores and Sphinx were being clever keeping a high altitude to prevent getting hit. The Branwen gave a sigh telling the people accompanying him to get close to them. That was Oscar and Laphicet. Two young teens that were probably way over their head. But he didn't thought that about that, they've been through enough to tell that they were more than ready.

Velvet's brother has been traveling with Ruby all over Anima during their journey to Mistral. And he has fought Grimm, both weak and strong types. The teen had enough experience to be here. In addition he has fought in the Battle of Beacon as well as Haven. Oscar was still learning but he's been doing well so far. Having Ozpin's soul in him helped him. But, since he's been very silent due to the revelation of Salem's immortality, the young farmhand has been on his own. Not really, with some training from the others he has an idea and fend for himself. He wasn't that bad during Haven but he still has ways before becoming a pro. The scythe user quit being a teacher because he never saw himself as a perfect role model and he hated teaching anyway. His semblance was also another reason not wanting to get any students in trouble. The life of a Huntsman was the one for him. Doing intelligence gathering for the Beacon headmaster.

It wasn't the same like in the old days when he was younger. With his teammates of Team STRQ, they were truly something. The best that graduated from Beacon. He was getting old thinking of the past so much. The flying Grimm were still among them. It will take too long to get into one of the buildings roofs to have a better aim. That is until Laphicet told them to stand back as he started casting a strong arte. The younger Crowe was holding his weapon as he kept in mind not to damage any of the buildings and structures of the city. He released a powerful gust of wind in the form of a cyclone taking a large swarm of the flying creatures. They hit the ground as they were dizzy from the win arte. Qrow immediately changed his weapon to scythe mode decapitating a few, with Oscar right behind him taking out a few with his cane. Laphicet was last releasing a regular arte and showing the moves he has learned from Weiss. That was pretty good looks like the Branwen didn't had to worry about a thing.

But they weren't out of this yet, more Manticores and Sphinx showed up circling around them. They will have to get the high ground if they want to stand a chance. Some of them have made the bold to land on the ground. Laphicet said he will take care of the ones in the air. That was enough of a plan for the scythe master. Here he was taking orders from a fifteen year old. He's been traveling with kids for a while so he should get used to take orders from them too. It wasn't just that but they have given him hope. To keep believing in what he believes in, to never give up regardless of how impossible things looked. His niece Ruby and Velvet have taught him such a valuable lesson. The Manticores charged at him as he sliced them all with his scythe, Oscar poked and killed one hitting one of its eyes. Laphicet was busy taking out a bunch of them while a Sphinx gave a cry to call for more reinforcements. Not looking good. This was the last thing they needed.

"We have to take out the Sphinxs first or they will keep on calling for more!"

Oscar nodded as he blocked the claws of a Sphinx. Qrow was busy dealing with Manticores and the same with the younger Crowe. The Sphinx were the bigger threat in the group. That is, after the Leviathan. The young farmhand blocked its attacks while blocking a bite from the snake tail. He needed to come up with a plan as he ran and the creature kept on following him. Releasing a fire ball he barely dodged missing him by a small length of his hair. Good thing it didn't caught fire. He arrived at one of the trolleys of the city as the Sphinx crushed it with its strong claws. The teen was starting to panic holding his cane, he was trapped and Qrow and Laphicet probably haven't noticed. There's no way he can take on strong type of Grimm like this one. Was he going to die here, he was thinking about everyone. His friends, his aunt who he left without a word. Just leaving a note.

This is what he wanted all along, to die alone. No, that wasn't it he wanted more. Deep down he always wanted to be more than just a farmer helping in the fields and the crops. Even way before having Ozpin's soul merged with his. He had this desire to help others and do what's right. What would it feel to achieve that dream, to fight and save lives. To be a Huntsman he remembered how many times his aunt told him it was a dangerous job. That he will be better off staying at home and attending to his duties, helping her run the farm. It was true but it never stopped him from dreaming. Now, here he was about to be killed by a Grimm. The Sphinx was destroying more of the trolley cart getting closer to him. Tears emerged holding the cane why was he freezing he has fought Grimm before. He shouldn't be afraid by now. Yet a few sobs escape his lips and closed his eyes.

("Calm down Oscar, I'm here. I will always be here.")

"….…."

("Remember your training. You're not the same farmhand. Take a deep breath and gather your thoughts. Form a strategy to fight it. Focus, don't let fear sink in. You're a Huntsman now.")

He calmed down hearing his words as he blocked another claw and went to the back of the trolley. He quickly jumped to the roof as he jumped at the Sphinx. Quickly he blocked the snake tail as he focused his aura with some rapid thrusts, cutting the tail. He was so quick to avoid the claws from the creatures as he went for a full thrust on the main body. The cane went right through the skin as the Sphinx gave a painful cry. The farm teen kept on thrusting until the Grimm fell to the ground dead. As it turned to smoke Qrow and Laphicet were staring at him. They were done with their opponents. The way he took down that Sphinx was pretty bad ass. They didn't got the chance to give him a compliment as they saw more flying Grimm heading their way. Followed by a loud roar coming from the far distance. The three turned to the course before their eyes widened in shock.

They couldn't believe what they were saying. The Leviathan was fighting an unknown creature. A dragon, but it wasn't a Grimm. Qrow has never seen anything like it before. Wasn't anything like the one that attacked Beacon. It was the same for Oscar first time seeing an actual dragon. He has read about them from books of fairy tales but a real one, it was out of this world. Never in his life he thought he will see one. Laphicet was the only one who saw it but wasn't shocked. He reminded the two that they have more Grimm to fight. The younger Crowe was hoping the others were holding on their own too. Qrow was called by Ren telling him that Ruby and Weiss were here. Along with the information that the red cloak leader couldn't stop the Leviathan with the power of her silver eyes. He wondered if she was feeling disappointed and was obviously worried. Guess he can talk to her once this is done.

Weiss and Ruby were flying through the city on the ice Queen Lancer. Looks like things were worse than they thought. There were already plenty of Manticores and Sphinx around. The city seemed like it was empty, maybe the military succeeded in evacuating everyone. Meaning they can clear off the creatures. There were just too many of them, they won't be able to get rid off all of them. Hopefully the military will back them up. Cordovin should help them because both want to protect Argus so it was all good. For now, the older woman will definitely arrest them for their crime. The red cloak girl was firing along with her partner at the incoming flying Grimm. The Queen Lance dodged attacks as the both Huntresses countered with dust rounds. It made contact, enough to kill the Manticores. The Sphinx however, are stronger it will take more than a few shots to take them down.

Long range fire might not be the trick as the silver eyed petite stood in thought. Changing the empty clip with a new one. It will be better to fight them up close. She told Weiss she had a plan as the former heiress was listening. Knowing her partner it has to be something crazy and she was right. Telling her to take them higher as the young reaper used her semblance to get into the roof of a building. The white haired girl kept flying around to get their attention. She was still firing as Ruby used her semblance again to get close to the Sphinx spinning Crescent Rose cutting it in half. Using her semblance to go to the next roof while her partner was backing her up with long range fire. It was a crazy plan but it was working. Problem is, she will be using a lot of her semblance which leads to use her aura. She will have to risk draining herself if they wanted to have a chance defeating all of this Grimm. The others must be fighting hard too.

Jumping from one roof to another slicing Manticores and Sphinx while Weiss resumed firing from Myrtenaster. She summoned her knight to aid the silver eyed leader. Better to have someone watching your back from close than from afar. The ice knight was able to make the long jump surprising the reaper. They kept at it until they saw more of the flying creatures. There was no end for this. They might drain themselves of aura if this keeps up. A Manticore was suddenly shot down and killed. Both Huntresses turned to see an Atlas air ship flying by with a couple more. That wasn't all as soldiers were on the ground firing their weapons. Looks like the cavalry has finally arrived. Meaning, they must have been done with evacuating the citizens. Weiss made the Queen Lancer to land and join the soldiers. Now it will be easier to fight. While they are at it they should try and find the others.

The two teamed up slicing Manticores while using glyphs and the ice Knight was still helping them. Sphinx were getting shot down before they could get the chance to call for reinforcements. Ruby used her semblance with her partner just like she did at the Argus Limited train. Together they sliced through many of the flying creatures while the soldiers were evading fire balls from the other Sphinx. Once they realized the military has this cover they can resume in searching for their friends. Jaune did told them they separated in order to help with the evacuation. A roar has suddenly has stopped them. It was coming from the coast. Of course it has to be the Leviathan, their eyes widened as they saw another creature present and fighting the giant Grimm. A dragon, definitely not the one that attacked Beacon. The Atlas soldiers avoided the conflict of both creatures focusing on the Grimm here.

"We should call the others and see where they are" said the red cloak leader.

"I…." Weiss paused gazing in the distance seeing the dragon fighting the Leviathan.

"Come on, we have to get going!" urged the silver eyed petite.

"Do you think Velvet's okay?"

"She's Velvet, of course she'll be all right."

"Any explanation why there's a dragon and why it's fighting the Leviathan?"

"I'm sure we will get answer later. Let's get to the others and get rid of all these Grimm."

The former heiress gave a nod. Ruby sure sounded like she wasn't surprised. It's not every day they get to see a dragon fight a giant Grimm. Guess they had better things to worry about for now. It worried her if this dragon possess a threat. They might be done with all of the flying Grimm but what will happen after that. How will they handle two Behemoths like those two. If her partner's silver eyes didn't worked on one, how will it work on another. The white haired girl helped her partner cut through any Grimm that will get in their way with her Knight still aiding them. The three were able to cut through a Sphinx together before it got the chance to release a fire ball. And more were coming but it seems the military was doing all right. The two Huntresses nodded running through the streets. Maybe if they follow other groups of soldiers they might ran into one of their friends.

Cardin released his cross chain with Sienna Khan's Cerberus whip killing two Manticores together. It wasn't that long until the whole city was being infected by Grimm. Good news that the people were already evacuated to the shelters so it was all right. They just needed to take out all of these creatures to save the city. Blake and Yang were doing their best fighting together. Though the raven haired faunus was having trouble fighting since she used a lot of her aura during her fight with Adam. So she was exhausted and ready to collapse, but she refused. She wanted to do her part to protect Argus. The blond brawler punched and blast her shot gun gauntlets at another Manticore. A Sphinx gave a cry calling for more creatures to join the assault. It was getting worse as the Winchester unleashed fire dust on his chain with the tigress doing the same. Firing the tip of her whip releasing the fire. It burn more of the flying Grimm.

More of them were showing becoming very annoying. They were only four and who knows if the others were having the same trouble. But the cavalry has arrived as Atlas air ship flew through the skies firing their missiles. Ground troops arrived shortly backing them up. The tall teen has never been so happy to see the military coming right on time. Now, their chances have gotten better. The flying Grimm were being shot down by the ships and those that were on land were being killed by the soldiers. The four joined in. Blake using Gambol Shroud in gun mode with Yang having her back firing her gauntlets. Their priority is to take out as many Sphinx as they could. They were the reason why more Manticores were showing up. This will never end if they don't do something against them. It was a fierce battle similar to the Battle of Beacon and Haven.

Sienna Khan saw a similarity with this battle and the one from Haven. There were so many Grimm like right now. Except they were being aided by human soldiers. The way they were fighting as everything was at stake in this fight. They were putting their lives on the line, all to protect the people of Argus. These are the soldiers of Atlas taking their mission so seriously. It was the same with the White Fang when Ghira's was in charge. He was so determined to create equality between humans and faunus. It was the same with Adam how determined he was to hurt so many people not caring of the consequences. The battle was taking a toll on the city as buildings and houses were getting destroyed by the Sphinx fire ball attack. What's important that the citizens were already evacuated and they were safe. This was part of fixing her mistakes helping here.

A Manticore flew straight at Blake as she fired but it wasn't enough to take it down. Yang got in front of her blasting it's head with her gauntlets. It fell down dead behind was a Sphinx who gave a cry to call for more reinforcements. Then a chain was wrapped around its neck, another on it's middle body. The brawler and the cat faunus saw Cardin and Sienna teaming up holding the creature from moving or attacking. The blond went all out with a barrage of combos as the two holding it used dust to burn it to ashes. That was another one down. The military already had their hands full as Manticores were coming here. The Winchester had an idea catching Yang's attention releasing his cross chain to her. This was enough to give her an idea what he was up to. She called for Sienna to do the same. The Tigress nodded releasing her Cerberus whip as Blake caught it.

The four focused on the ones that were on the ground, while the soldiers were taking out the ones in the air. Grabbing the two chain whips the charged in as all of the Manticore got hit by the long range weapons. The Winchester activated lightning dust on his cross whip hitting a pack of the flying creatures while the tigress use ice dust to freeze them in place. Yang punched and blasted her gauntlets, followed by using her semblance to increased her strength. Good thing she got hit by some of their attacks giving her the boost. All of the ones that were frozen were smashed to pieces as Sienna, Blake and Cardin finished off the rest using his semblance that got hit by the lightning dust. They have lost count on how many Grimm they have killed. It was from over as they saw a couple of Sphinx arriving, they needed to take them out before they call for more backup.

Cardin really wanted a break heck, everyone deserves one. Ever since he arrived at Anima it's been one heck of a ride after another. He thought it was going to end after Haven. Boy, he was so wrong. It's like their trouble were just starting. The train, the whole crap with Cordovin, then the plan that went south, destroying the old hag's mech and now this. It wasn't that bad, Yang was all right, the same with Blake, the bastard Adam was behind bars and now their new ally is the former High Leader of the White Fang. But then again, she already helped them at Haven so she can be trusted along that she saved the cat faunus and stopped the psycho bastard. He gasped seeing a Sphinx firing a fire ball that was heading straight at the blond brawler. The tall teen pushed her out of the way along with himself avoiding the attack. It hit the concrete of the street creating a crater. That was too close for comfort.

Blake was more than relief when Cardin saved her partner. She was too slow to react and she can barely stand up. The effects from her fight with Adam were hitting her. She was low on aura and all she could is use her weapon's gun feature. Unable to perform her usual quick attacks. But she needed to fight, to help her friends. This was probably the first time she has ever been so tired. She pushed herself to her limits when she fought the High Leader and now she was paying the price. A fire ball was sent right at her unable to do anything. Yang and Cardin pulled her out of the way. Sienna Khan took on the Sphinx responsible with a barrage of combos and performing a serious of blows with her Ceberus whip then use fire and lightning dust to kill it. The soldiers had their hands full, and so are they. This look like a fight that wasn't going to end. Even with the military helping them.

"The Sphinx are bringing more Manticores. We have to take them out first!" said the raven haired girl.

"Easier said than done" replied the Winchester.

"There just too many of them!" followed Yang.

"We're in for a long fight. As expected" said the tigress.

"I wonder how the others are doing" said the brawler.

"The whole city is filled with Grimm. You should regroup with your friends" said the former High Leader.

"What about you?" Blake got worried.

"I'll stay in this area and support the military. You might have better chances fighting them if you're all together."

"We should call Ruby and see where we can meet up" said the brawler.

"Sienna are you sure you'll be all right?" asked the cat faunus.

"I can look after myself and it's not like I'm alone" assured the former High Leader.

Blake nodded as she left with her partner and the Winchester. She tripped and before she hit the ground she was caught by the two. This was starting to get embarrassing and annoying. Guess she couldn't help it if she was that tire.

Jauen, Ren and Nora have left the area of the shelters with the soldiers. Everyone has been safely secured succeeding in the mission. Now, they needed to take care of the Grimm in the city. They were already being backed up by the remaining air troops. The Arc ordered to take out the Sphinx firstly before they can call out more Manticores. Second, they left the shelters heading deeper into the city to prevent the creatures from going there. The blond leader was feeling so much better that everyone was safe his sister, Terra Cotta and Adrian included. His teammates were already supporting the soldiers firing at the creatures in the air. Jaune wasn't happy that most of them were flying, guess he will have to take out the ones on the ground. His scroll was beeping, really a bad time to be receiving a call. Checking the number it was Laphicet. The blond picked it up in a hurry telling him that Ruby wanted them to regroup in front of Saphron's house.

Not a bad plan after they were done here. He made sure to tell his two teammates of the plan. If they were all together they have better chances of defeating more Grimm. It was the right thing to do now that the citizens have been safely evacuated leaving the city deserted. As soon as they were done here, but it seemed to be impossible with the large numbers of creatures everywhere and even with both ground and air troops giving them a hand. It was going to be hard to reunite with the others. The Valkyrie fired her grenades with her partner firing Storm Flower's guns. Everyone was doing their part as the Arc readied his weapons spotting Sphinx and Manticores on land. The Sphinx released a fire ball as the blond jumped straight at it landed on it's head. He used Cyclonic Surge, followed by Lightning Blade and Guardian Field causing devastating damage on the creature.

He set his eyes on the Manticores making sure there were more Sphinx. Their priority was to get rid of that type of Grimm to prevents more from coming. The military were doing the same thing, firing on the mutant type creature. The Manticores flew away as Jaune spotted a Sphinx not that far, it flew off but he went after it. Making a mistake to leave Ren and Nora behind. He refused to let Argus be destroy, to end up like Beacon and Haven. Not this time, they will win. Specially when part of this was their fault because they were following his plan. The Arc would never forgive himself if the city is lost because of him. The Sphinx flew off as the blond leader increased his speed. No way it was going to reach it now. It was long gone, there was no sign of it. The Huntsman wasn't happy realizing he was alone, separated from the others. Great, it couldn't get worse.

At least he wasn't completely lost knowing where he was. Near the city square, the part where Pyrrha's memorial statue stands. Didn't seemed to be any Grimm here, thank goodness. Or so he thought, as he saw something flying by the park. Jaune immediately went to check it out. Not having time to call his teammates, it could be another Sphinx. Blue eyes narrowed it was a Grimm, but not a Sphinx or Manticore. A different type that was standing near Pyrrha's statue. It had wings but it had the shape of a human. A humanoid Grimm with wings, that was a new one. The creature turned to gaze at him, it looked like a woman her eyes glowing red. She was holding a long scepter very decorative on the top. So there were other types of Grimm besides the ones attacking along with the Leviathan. Could this be the one leading the Grimm including the giant one. If that was true, then it could be stronger than the rest.

Blue eyes widened as the Grimm was about to attack the statue. He charged in using Guardian Field to prevent the creature from proceeding. The statue was staying and he will make sure nothing happens to it. The Arc needed to get it away from here. Anywhere but here. It went for another attack on the statue as Jaune used clashed weapon pushing the humanoid creature back. It flew off before landing on the ground. There was definitely something off about this one. Sure, it felt stronger but why the human look. The creature charged as both clashed weapons back and fort, it was quick and strong. Not your average Grimm but nothing the blond leader can handle. That's okay he was ready for anything. He has come a long way since Velvet took him under her wing. It was glaring at him with such hatred as she moved her wings being in the air.

"You…." this shocked the Arc, she can talk" you have her wretched stench all over you."

She was pointing at him with her scepter.

"What stench?"

"I can't stand her, she took everything from me!"

"Velvet?" he had a feeling it has to be the older Crowe.

"If you're with her, then you're my enemy!"

"What did she do to you?"

"Oscar...My dear brother, she took him from me. He was my whole world, my whole life."

This shocked Jaune. So this Grimm must be from her world back, when Velvet was on her quest for revenge. She told him there are so many thing she regret doing even if she would do them all over again. He understood her pain, she was driven by hatred and she was willing to do anything. Killing this person's brother must have been one of those mistakes. But then again, this wasn't a person just a Grimm version of the person she used to be in the older Crowe's world. What is done is done, the past is the past. Nothing can be change just like he regrets not being there to help Pyrrha from dying. The blond shook his head ready to fight.

"I'm not going to apologize to you. You're not human anymore. Velvet has been through a lot and to this day she's trying to repent for all of her mistakes. I'm there for her just like all of my friends. We will support her no matter what."

"Then prepare to die for taking the side of that murderer!"

"She's not human, just a Grimm replica based on the person from Velvet's world. Just like all the code red and therions. Salem has recreated all of her enemies to Remnant."

"Velvet isn't here. So, it's up to me to defeat you."

(Music: "The line between persistence and affection" from the Tales of Berseria original soundtrack)

Aware that she wasn't human, just another Grimm. Jaune didn't show mercy he will not hold back just like he has done with every single one of the creatures so far. It's someone from Velvet's past but she wasn't here, so the responsibility to take it out is up to him. The Arc already knew it could be a therion type meaning it was stronger than average Grimm. And he was right as fused Teresa went at him with a flurry of attacks from her scepter. They were so fast it looked like they could cut through anything. Using her artes like swift pitch. It made the blond leader to go on the defensive no ordinary Grimm indeed. Then the creature started casting an arte, releasing Blood Moon. The Arc managed to dodge the fire sphere it was definitely a therion if it can cast artes like Laphicet. But even code red ones can cast artes too. It didn't matter his opponent is strong.

Just when he was about to go for the attack the therion flew off having the high ground. It was about to cast another arte, probably the same one. The Arc jumped as high as he could using lightning blade, followed by cyclonic surge making landing successful hits. Getting back to the ground the creatures growled charging with faster attacks. Jaune immediately used guardian field to keep it separate it. This thing was too dangerous and he could only get close to it unless he has the perfect strategy. He could sure use his teammates help right about now. This thing really had intentions of killing him, not like he doubted it to begin with. The blond leader broke through the therion's defenses using sword rain alpha and beast. Teresa was blown away from the force, only to blocked the incoming attack. She was furious as Jaune went to the defensive ready to use guardian field if necessary.

The therion Grimm charged in he used the arte, but she jumped flying. This caught the Arc by surprise so she predicted his movement to counter her. He couldn't react on time as she flew straight at him grabbing him and performed fast pace attacks leading to an explosion. Teresa has used her mystique arte violent mix as the blond Huntsman hit the ground. How lucky he was to still be alive after such a powerful attack. If it weren't for the fact that he has a lot of aura he wouldn't be still standing. But she wasn't going to let him recover going for the attack again using her break soul arte screw driver. Jaune ended up rolling on the ground to evade the attack before blocking with Crocea Mors and countering with his gauntlet dagger. Looks like he has underestimated this creature. If he wanted to stand a chance he will have to go all out on this one. After that mystique arte, he needed to take her down.

"After I deal with you, Velvet will be next!"

Blue eyes widened, she did not just say that. It should be obvious if this thing was recreated from an enemy of the older Crowe's word, then it will be going after her for revenge. But to say it to his face was a big mistake. Jaune didn't care how many mistakes his girlfriend made in her past he love her and he will protect her with his own life if it comes to that. He knew how hurt she's being for making them all those choices that tore her heart apart. And to this day she's still trying to repent for all of them. Right now the former daemon was very busy dealing with the Leviathan and the Arc was going to make sure this thing doesn't get near her. Both were clashing weapons as Teresa went with screw driver making the blond to turned around, appearing on her back. This shocked the Grimm as she was wide open. He went with cerberus strikel, talon storm, lightning blade and demonic chaos.

The therion was so angry as she cast blood moon, but it was evaded then a flurry of attacks which they were being blocked by the blond. She couldn't believe it, he was still standing and it seems he was getting stronger. How, he was just a human. Is it his loyalty for that monster Velvet the reason he was still fighting in top form. How can he support that murderer. She didn't hesitated taking down her beloved Oscar or herself. Even devouring them and used them as a sacrifice to awaken the four elemental Empyreans. She didn't care how she was brought back or the fact that she looked very different from the form she took when she fused with the therion Dis. Once more she used her break soul and they were being blocked. Finally had it, she went for her mystique arte. This time, it will be twice as strong as it's usual power rate. Red eyes widened as she has missed and her opponent was in the air.

Jaune made the jump right on time no way he wanted to get caught in that attack again. He used eagle dive hitting the Grimm hard as it went to the ground. The Arc used his first mystique arte Arc revolution causing a lot of damage but not enough to bring it down. It shocked him she still had strength to fight as they were clashing weapons again. The Huntsman had to dodge her break soul artes four times. There was a lot of determination in the creature's eyes as it was really human. Not enough to convince the blond leader. Performing a series of combos she couldn't avoid or blocked it was enough to finally weakened her. Yet, it didn't looked like the therion was ready to call it a quits. The Huntsman stood still as the creature was getting up not looking happy. It's like she was ready to lose her temper until he noticed that tears were emerging. He couldn't hesitate now.

"Why...Why do you protect her? Velvet is a heartless monster. She won't hesitate to get anyone involved and let them die. She deserve to suffer!"

"You lost someone precious to you, I understand. I have many sisters I don't know what I'll do if something happens to any of them. But it's time for you to move on."

Jaune's power increased feeling the need of a new attack. It was stronger than his previous mystique artes. He vanished and appeared before the Grimm with powerful slashes from all of his weapons, then jumped high in the air to deliver the final blow.

"With all of my might, with all of my heart everything ends with my sword Divine Conqueror!"

The last strike was the one that cut through the therion into many pieces. Teresa's head landed right next to him shocked at his power. It's like she fought Velvet herself even if when she did, she wasn't alone.

(Music end)

"Why?" she whispered.

"Because I love her. I love Velvet with all of my heart regardless of what she's done. She has changed if only you could see it. She's not that vengeful person anymore. She's trying to make a living and correct for all of her mistakes. By protecting those that are precious to her. Every time I look into her eyes I can see the regret and the pain. I know she regrets killing you and your brother more than you know. I hope you two are reunited and happy together."

This made the creature to teared up more his voice sounded so sincere, why was she brought back. Maybe she wasn't the real Teresa Linares but she still has her memories. And those can't be replace by anything. Even in her time of death the person who defeated looked down on her with pity in his blue eyes. This person loves Velvet Crowe, then she must be very luck to have someone like him. Someone with a bigger heart than Oscar.

"Thank you."

The pieces of the therion finally turned to black smoke as it vanished. Jaune gave a sigh sheathing Crocea Mors. He knew it wasn't over, but maybe the Sphinx and the Manticores might retreat with this Grimm gone. Or he could be wrong. The loud roars caught his attention, coming from the far distance. Eyes widened, Velvet was still fighting the Leviathan. He grew worried as he took his scroll, opening the device and dialing a number. There was this feeling that he should be concern for his girlfriend.

*Jaune?*

"Laphicet, I need to know. Does Velvet's transformation have some setbacks?"

*I don't know….*

"I know, she told me. She's still fighting the Leviathan and I...I have a bad feeling."

*Well, Ozpin said because her animal form is very big she can't stay in that form for too long. Or she will get too tire.*

"How tire are we talking?

*Enough, for her to collapse or...Die.*

"I knew it" now he knew his bad feeling" regroup with the others and keep fighting."

*What are you going to do?*

"I'm heading for the coast" he ended the call.

Maria was having a blast flying the air ship while aiding the other aerial forces. She fired the guns and missiles destroying Grimm left and right. She has never felt so alive before. It's like she has returned to her younger years when she was Huntress. Though it looked like she was going crazy she was keeping an eye on the fuel gauge. It was low as she stated, but at least she can still be around long enough to take out a few more of the creatures. Enjoying what's left of her life flying an air ship and blowing Grimm up. And was she having so much fun. They should let her flying these things more often. Or maybe become a pilot yeah right, not if Cordovin has anything to say about it. Better enjoy it while it lasts.

"Haha! Fear the Grimm Reaper!"

She released a barrage of missiles killing dozens of Manticores. One of them almost hit an ally ship.

*Hey watch your fire! You almost hit me!*

"Oh hush, you're fine. Let this old woman have fun for a change. I swear, this generation has become so rude."

The two Behemoths were still going at it hard. Velvet used a series of combos with her claws and tail and yet the Leviathan was still standing. This thing was really strong. It's no wonder the silver eyes didn't affected that much. But she can still go on ignoring how long she's been in her dragon form. But the giant Grimm has shown signs that it was hurt and it was having a trouble to fight. She has this match in the bag she will have to be a little careless in using stronger attacks to finish it. Even in it's current state she wasn't going to underestimate it. It was still a formidable opponent with its raw power and size. It was about to lease the fire blast, pretty predictable. The older Crowe spread her wings flying over it while it was charging, going behind. He black dragon grabbed it's head downward firing at the water. Since they were still far away from the city, it was safe to fire the attack.

Velvet finally felt like it, exhaustion. She must have been too long in her transformation not to realize it. The fight has taken it's toll on her, so she needed to finish this now. The Leviathan recovered going for a bite but it was stopped by the dragon grabbing it's long jaw. She countered with a flurry of slashes, bites and tail swipes. Finally, she performed one of her break artes scarlet edge. The fire ball hit the giant Grimm head on hurting it a lot. Spreading her wings again it flew right at it as it performed another break arte. Using Lunar Surface with her long tail as it slice through the head of the Behemoth. That was it, the giant creature has been defeated. The rest of the body felt to the sea as it started vanishing in so much black smoke. This fight was sure tough maybe because she still hasn't adjusted to this form yet. It was the second time she has transformed. Still, a win is a win.

At the control room of the military base Cordovin and her crew stood speechless with their eyes wide opened. Shocked that the Leviathan has been defeated and that dragon was still standing. There wasn't enough time now. Their other forces were still fighting the flying Grimm at the city. From the last report the older high ranking officer got. Looks like she will have to use her ace in the hole after all. Paladin King wasn't the only weapon meant to fight giant Grimm. They have something else, a secret weapon for this kind of emergencies.

"Prepare to launch the Hydra Cannon!"

Yes, the Hydra Cannon was very powerful. Created by the most brilliant minds in Atlas. The best of the best engineers designed this destructive weapon that will put fear in the creatures of Grimm. Now they will finally use it on something of a bigger threat.

"But, ma'am the Hydra Cannon hasn't been completed yet. Let alone test it!"

"Do not question my orders and do it! We cannot let that monster go on the loose it poses a bigger threat than the Leviathan."

"Yes ma'am. Preparing Hydra Cannon in t-minus ten seconds!"

Jaune reached the coast running as fast as he could. Good news, the Leviathan has been defeated. Velvet did it as he spotted the giant dragon far from the city and the military base. He understood why she kept the giant Grimm at such distance to keep it far away from the city and she succeeded. It never got close to Argus, the people were safe but the others and the military were still fighting the remaining flying Grimm. A loud noise caught the Arc's attentions seeing that the roof of the base were opening. Something big came out of it. Blue eyes widened in shock, a large cannon. So Cordovin was hiding that weapon from everyone. What's worse it was slowly turning changing direction. Straight at the dragon. No, they were planning to fire that thing at Velvet. He had no idea how to get her attention because she was too far away. The black dragon has suddenly flew over getting near the coast, almost where they fought Cordo her mech was still there.

The blond leader noticed something was wrong with it. As it landed and it was changing size. It was shrinking, and shrinking. Jaune gasped she was changing back to her human form. She must have been in that form for too long that she must be exhausted. She wasn't going to reach the shore she was going into the water. Without any energy she won't be able to swim, she might drown. The Arc ran faster throwing himself to the water, hoping to get to his girlfriend on time. He swam this is where the dragon shrunk. Eyes widened spotting Velvet who was unconscious. Swimming faster who got to her and brought the young woman to the surface so she can breathe. She was coughing as the blond felt so relief. Now came the big question who were they going to get to the shore. The older Crowe has slowly opened her eyes gazing at the face of her boyfriend.

"Guess I...Overdid it…."

"You sure did. That's why I'm here. I knew you were planning to do something reckless so I came in the nick of time to save you" he chuckled.

"My hero" her tone was filled with humor" any bright ideas who are you getting me up there Mr. Hero?"

"Not a clue. Guess I'll have to swim back to shallow shores."

"Sorry for being a burden."

"Don't say that, you will never be one. You basically saved us all."

"I'm so tire...I think I'm going to get some rest."

"It's okay, I got you" he smiled as he swam carrying her body.

"Ma'am we lost signal with the dragon!"

"How can that be?!" Cordovin was outraged.

"It's just gone from our radars."

"Something that big doesn't vanished out of thin air!"

"Ma'am our forces are struggling with the flying Grimm at the city. Even with the aid from the Huntsmen and Huntresses!"

The old hag wasn't happy in the least. First the Leviathan is defeated, then that giant dragon disappears and now this. She didn't had any more forces to send to aid them.

"But ma'am, I got good news this time."

It was put on screen as Cordo's expression changed completely to a big smile. There stood an Altesian fleet passing through the base. She couldn't believe it. Atlas has actually sent them reinforcements. It was a miracle. Now it was her chance not to look bad.

"Tell our ground troops to fight harder! We must show the pilot of that fleet the might of the kingdom of Atlas!"

(Music: "Rising" from the RWBY volume 6 original soundtrack by Jeff Williams featuring Cassie Lee Williams)

The group has reunited in front of Saphron's house as planned. Once they were all together they resumed aiding the military in stopping the flying Grimm. Laphicet told them that Jaune went to the coast after Velvet to check up on her. No argument from them since he's her boyfriend. In one of the streets they saw a group of soldiers firing at a Sphinx and six Manticores. Looks like they were having trouble. Ruby, Qrow and Yang teamed up to kill the Sphinx, while the others went after the Manticores. They were glad to see them, they've been getting reports that a group composed of Huntsmen and Huntresses have been helping them clear out the Grimm that are all over the city. The creatures didn't stood a chance with their combine strength and teamwork. That is, until a swarm of Sphinx arrived to greet them. They all gave a cry calling for more allies.

It wasn't long for more Manticores to show up as their soldiers reloaded the clips from their assault rifles. Ruby, Ren, Yang, Weiss and Blake did the same. They had no ideal how long they've been fighting but they can still hold their own against large numbers. As long as they were together. They kept going at it aiming at the Sphinx, they were their main focus. Just then a missile hit a Sphinx killing it on the explosion. The group and the military turned to the source. They gasped for a moment, gazing at the sky. There stood an Altesian battle fleet. They couldn't believe their eyes, Cordovin didn't had those so it could only mean this has come from Atlas. The Huntsmen and Huntresses were glad to have reinforcements to back them up, resuming to fight. The large fleet fired it's cannons and missiles destroying so many Sphinx and Maticores. More Grimm showed but they were wiped out by the deadly arsenal of the ship. The rest of Cordovin's air forces joined up to support the fleet.

(Music end)

Qrow blasted a Manticore, then cut another with his sword mode. The Branwen was gazing around. More soldiers arrived at their position, with the air ships and the battle fleet there was no way they will lose. They have this battle won. If they destroy all the Sphinx, it will be easy to dispose of any available Manticores in the city. In other words, there was no need for them to be here. They have done their part and helped enough. The Huntsman hasn't forgotten that they were now criminals in the eyes of the Atlas Military. After what they did, he didn't blame them. It was time to high tail it out of here. He called after Ruby and Yang and everyone else getting closer to the group as he told them what he has in mind. Some of them hesitated to leave in the middle of this battle. But from the looks of things, the military has this cover now that the battle fleet arrived.

Ruby didn't like it, leaving them like this. But her uncle has a point. Cordovin made it clear she wanted to arrest them for their crimes. Stealing an air ship and messing up her giant mech. It was enough to give all of them a long sentence for damage of private property. The rest decided to leave, it was easy to do since the military was too busy focusing on the flying Grimm. Sienna didn't bothered also knowing the military didn't needed further assistance. She wondered if the pilot who gave her a lift here was still around. She still has plans before turning herself in. Jaune was in thought this wasn't how he was expecting to leave Argus. To leave his sister without a word. The same, with bidding farewell to Terra Cotta and Adrian. At least they were all safe in the shelters. They ran until they were away from the battle. Cordovin was too busy checking on her men to be keeping on them. So, it was the perfect chance to get away.

"I feel like it's wrong to just run away...No offense Blake" said Weiss to the cat faunus.

"None taken, and I don't like it either. But what else can we do?"

"We did broke the law making us criminals" said Ren.

"What did you do?" this was all new to Sienna Khan.

"Oh you know. Steal an Atlas air ship and wrecked a big robot that also belongs to them" Ruby gave a nervous smile.

"I see. No wonder you chose to leave at the current situation."

"Guess we should go while they're still busy with the Grimm" replied Nora.

"That's the plan" said Qrow giving a sigh from Huntsman to criminal how can it come down to this, he mentally cursed at his semblance.

"So we leave Argus, then what?" said Cardin.

"We still need to get to Atlas" said Yang.

"First we find Velvet, Jaune and Maria" said the red cloak leader.

"Wasn't she aiding the air forces? She's still back there" said Oscar talking about the elderly woman.

"I'm sure she will get the memo and leave before the ship runs out of fuel" said the Branwen.

Laphicet's scroll beeped as he opened the device answering the incoming call" Jaune, is Velvet all right?"

*She's okay. She's just tired. Where are you guys?*

"Did she beat the Leviathan?" the Valkyrie was shocked along with the rest.

"We're not that far from the coast. We'll come to you before getting to Maria and leave the city."

*Yeah, about that. I don't think that will be happening….*

"Why's that?" the younger Crowe had a bad feeling.

*Because the military have Maria...And us too.*

The group stood shocked not seeing this coming. Qrow only groaned rubbing his forehead. It was one bad thing after another.

To be continued

-I forgot to add that dragon Velvet can also use malevolence form becoming stronger but also affects her energy and stamina.

-How was that Dragon Velvet vs Leviathan fight? I only had in mind Gozilla vs Mecha Godzilla for some reason.

-Jaune vs Therion Teresa a fight I've been wanting to add for a while and he finally learning his third mistyque arte which is Asbel's fourth MA Divine Conqueror. Even for her Grimm replica I'd say, she died at peace unlike the last time.

-I must be so evil to put the group in such a bind lol. Don't worry things will get better promise.

-One more chapter before the long hiatus returns it saddens me but it has to be done.

-Replying to reviews:

*R.E.W. 4- I'd say it was unexpected but like I said it's something I have planned for a while base on a theory. I find it hard to believe Neo would be convinced that easily knowing the kind of person that is Cinder. She's smarter than she looks I'm pretty sure she must know Ruby isn't the kind of person to kill someone. She must know she's not responsible and she must know Cinder is only using her for her goals. What is stopping her from backstabbing her?

*Shadow Joestar- Velvet already defeated the Leviathan and the military along with the fleet has things under control. Still our heroes are in trouble as long as they're in Argus.

*TheEmeraldMage- I did said I was going to do my best to make my version better than canon and it looks like I succeeded. If Yang has PTSD she HAS PTSD it's not something that will vanish just like that. It's a serious condition that might stay forever, it gets treatment and it might never go away. I'd say Yang's healing along with Cardin's going along well. But wait, Velvet's transformation is a dragon and he has dragon PTSD holy crap how will he handle that lol? Hope you enjoyed the Leviathan/Dragon Velvet fight or Kaiju fight I was thinking more of Godzilla vs Mecha Godzilla. Glad you've been telling your friend about my story you can tell him to read it when he has time. Always appreciate the support.

*Guest- I'm pretty sure they based the election based on Trump vs Hillary won't get into any details since I don't like talking about politics.

*CT7567Rules- at least I'm not the only one who hates Cinder. Yeah I wanted to kill her from the start of the story. I feel like her time has come, I see no point in seeing her alive. To me Watts is the best villain of Salem's group. When I thought of Velvet's dragon form I thought of Red Eyes yeah it's not a coincidence. Red Eyes to me is one of the most bad ass looking dragons.

*Messiah of authors- exactly thank you for understanding. Birds are over rated.

*Sweetdesire2002- thank you glad you like it. As for your other review Laphicet can transform but it's not a dragon. I'm afraid it will be reveal in v7. As for you other review lol to me Velvet and Jaune's relationship is something that blooms slowly like planting a seed and you treat it with care until it grows into a beautiful tree. That's the best way to describe it. Both have been through a lot and both think alike in protecting their friends and wanting to do what's right. Velvet has moved on from her past thanks to him and her friends. Now she wants to become into a better version of herself from the person she used to be before the events of the game took place.

*Mr. Bumpity- I don't want to get into a long rant. But apparently you misunderstand my intentions. Clearly you don't know the difference between a flame and constructive criticism. In every single of my reviews I always apologize if I mean any harm or ill intentions. The author hasn't said anything to me so I guess he's okay with it. I doubt the adms will remove my account simply because I'm giving constructive criticism it's suppose to be the main reason why readers would write a review in the first place.

*M.H. Pintner- definitely I am waiting to see Cinder die because I see her with no purpose in the story anymore. Honestly she should have died back at Haven. Raven should have kill her and take her powers.

*Saint Saber Fang- I know Dragon Ball Z Kakarot honestly I'm better off watching a playthrough than playing it I've been done with DBZ for years.

*Gabriel443- gracias espero que este capitulo te guste tambien.

-SPOILERS for volume 7 episode 11 titled" Gravity" gonna say it now best episode so far I love Watts vs Ironwood a gun battle with fists it was short and sweet. Salem appearing before the group pretty clear she killed Summer as expected. Watts and Tyrian being defeated easily it was all just a diversion for the real battle to begin. Ironwood has been left with no choice but to take Atlas along with the maiden and the relics to keep Salem from getting them and he's willing to abandon Mantle for it. I think this is mostly Ruby's fault for not telling him the truth from the start and Yang and Blake for not telling him that they told Robin and they let her go. They brought this upon themselves and now they have made Ironwood their enemy, they have to face the consequences of their actions. Humanity being divided again the irony. The Ace Ops will fight Team RWBY minus Clover. This is making me very excited for the next episode. I am looking to see Cinder vs Winter and if she dies I will drop the show. I wonder what Oscar will do and also we're only 2 episodes away from the finale and we still have no background story on Nora yet. All in all an 8/10 good episode the last episodes of the volume are the best ones and the rest is nothing but filler.

-As always thank you very much for all the favs, follows and reviews I really appreciate it.
