Arktown is destroyed. snow covers the damage and stops the purple flames that are still lit...

.

Ruby's cape lay's in a pool of blood

"what was my mother like...?"

.

Weiss's sword stabbed into her body

"I wish I never went back with my father..."

.

Neptune's goggles are broken sitting next to Sun's broken Numb-chucks

"she's the reason I'm fighting..."

"I'm sorry... Ruby..."

.

Sage's sword is broken and his throat is slit open

"you can help another climb those steps"

.

Sienna's body hangs from a window with her Whip around her neck

"I'll never trust a man in blue"

.

Mercury's legs are broken off with blood on them

"He died for us! if we're not willing to do the same! we're cowards..."

.

Arslan's body is cut in half

"you asked me to rescue Weiss... let me do this"

.

Qrow's cross necklace hangs from his headless body

"We talked about this Firecracker"

.

Winters sword is stabbed her gut

"I'm glad my real father loved my mother"

.

Neo's umbrella glides in the wind, broken

"I wanted to be like her"

.

Romans Hat covers his face

"Don't let another great war happen..."

.

Nora's body lay's on the steps with her stomach gutted

"I just lost the father of my child..."

"I'm sorry... all of you..."

Velvets camera is broken and her it's in her hands

"I'm the last of team CFVY..."

.

Jaune's body is being held by the Dark Brother.

"I fought for everything!... and I lost everything..."

.

The Dark Brother drops the body of a still alive Jaune Arc and looks to the dead bodies of his friends... He raises his hands and they began to twitch and their eyes open to reveal the eyes of Grimm... they are all turned into Hybrids...


We're steady on the blade

Yang holding onto Croceas Mors...

Jaune covered in blood and holding the Relic of Knowledge

But our hearts are getting tired

Neo and Whitley killing Hybrids

Ruby and Sun waiting for the Hybrids to attack

Can't see it through the flames

Maria standing in front of the Dark Brother...

Ruby holding a bloody numb-chuck

Or the ringing in our ears

Neptune fighting Watts

Neptune and Weiss crying

We're losing all the reasons for our hate

Salem holding a Major character severed head

Have we gone too far to find escape

Jaune and Yang confronting Salem

Lay your weapons down!

Yang dropping to her knees crying

Lay your weapons down!

Jaune running after the dark brother

Lay your weapons down!

Ruby killing a Major character

Don't need to do this

Light brother appearing in Vale

Can't make it through this

Jaune walking through the burning city of Vale...

Lay your weapons down

Jaune sheathing Croceas Mors

Yang putting away Ember Celica

Oscar displaying Ozpins cane

Ruby and Sun Looking at Beacon with smiles

Roman hanging his cane and hat on a hook

We can't fight anymore

Jaune surrounded by hundreds of Hybrids

Yang and sage with Raven behind them killing Hybrids

Ruby and Sun try to make their way to help Neptune and Weiss

We can't fight anymore...

Middle-aged man and woman looking at a cabin next to a waterfall...
