Chapter 35: Volume 7 Night II
Everyone got into one of their hotel rooms and Kelly got her laptop set up so they can watch the rest of Volume 7. She inserted the flash drive and began to play the videos. An hour and a half later, they finished watching Volume 7 and all began to discuss the future events.
"Alright let's go through this so we all have an understanding of all this," Jacob said.
"So after the massacre, Robyn and her Happy Huntresses start to rob the provisions for Amity Tower," Blake said.
"And Ironwood is getting pretty close to declaring martial law, despite Nora's objections," Pyrrha added.
"We also get some insight on Tyrian as he was a serial killer in Anima who escaped a prison transport due to a Grimm attack," Robert said.
"I guess we can all assume that Salem broke him out," Ricky said.
"So Ironwood puts an arrest warrant on both Tyrian and Robyn," Yang said.
"Nora is more exasperated while Ren is more cold and firm," Rebecca added.
Ren did not say anything after watching his on screen counterpart's behavior.
"Yang and Blake are tasked with finding Robyn, but decide to tell her about Amity Tower rather than arresting her," Jaune said.
"We also learn that Pietro's aura is actually part of Penny's," Kendra said.
"Yes, but it seems to have an effect on the poor man's health," Allen stated.
"Anyway Blake and Yang confront Robyn and tells her about Amity Tower and Robyn's semblance basically turns her into a freaking human lie detector," Ricky said.
"We then see the vault to the Staff of Creation where Oscar tells Ironwood that he should speak to those he's most afraid to speak with," Jacob said.
"Also the Staff is what's keeping Atlas into the air," Blake added.
"So if the Staff is removed, Atlas falls… literally," Robert said.
"Anyway we all received an invitation from Jacques that we are all invited to dinner where Ironwood will be defending his seat," Ruby said.
"And you guys then speculate that Jacques might have something to do with Salem," Kendra said.
"Everyone gets invited to the Schnee Manor as Whitley reveals to Weiss that their butler Klein was fired," Britney said.
Weiss lowers her head in guilt, knowing that he helped her escape the manor.
"Ironwood, Winter, Clover, and Penny go to the dining room where Jacque, the council, and Robyn are waiting," Weiss said.
"And now I definatly want to punch you father in that fucking mouth of his for questioning Penny in the room," Ricky said.
"Anyway Weiss goes up to her father's office... '' Allen gets interrupted by Kelly and Rebecca.
"And we meet Willow 'Mama' Schnee!" they both said.
"Mama Schnee?" Weiss asked with disturbance while Yang laughed.
"That's what the fandom calls your mother," Allen said.
"She shows Weiss that she has cameras all over the manor and recorded Jacques' conversation with Dr. Watts," Blake said.
"Weiss then exposes the footage to the council which show Jacques agreeing to give Watts his credentials in exchange for rigging the election and then arrests Jacques," Rebecca said with a smile.
"That's what he gets!" Nora exclaims.
"I'd say give him the death penalty if you ask me," Ricky said.
"They then learned that Watts shut down the heating grid to Mantle and all access is cut off, thus sparking a bonfire riot and attracting Grimm," Robert said.
"Ironwood agrees to Oscar's wishes and tells the council and Robyn about Salem while Ruby tells Oscar to tell Ironwood that Salem can't be killed in private," Kendra said.
"And we learn that Cinder and Neo are in Atlas too," Ruby added.
"While RWBY, JNR, the Ace Ops, and Qrow all work on evacuating Mantle while fighting off Grimm, Ironwood tells all of Atlas and Mantle about Salem and lies about Amity Tower completion to get Watts out of hiding," said Jacob.
"Robyn, Clover, and Qrow go after Tyrian while Watts goes to Amity Colosseum, falling for Ironwood's trap," Robert said.
"And both got their asses kicked!" Nora added.
"RWBY and the Ace ops, minus Clover, all get to Ironwood's office under his order and discover that Cinder is in Atlas," Ruby said.
"Salem makes an appearance through a Seer Grimm stating that Watts and Tyrian were really preparing for her arrival and then pulls a bitch move on Ruby about her mother before disappearing," Ricky said as Ruby teared up from that.
"Ironwood then loses it and decides to raise Atlas into the atmosphere instead of Amity Tower, while coldy leaving the people of Mantle, who have not been completely evacuated to die," Britney said.
"And then places arrest warrants on RWBY, JNR, Oscar, and Qrow but not before Ruby warns everyone on Ironwood's plans," Kelly added.
"Me and my team fought off the Ace ops and met up with Maria and Pietro," Ruby said.
"While my team and Oscar confront Neo who ends up stealing the Lamp," Jaune added.
"Qrow and Robyn fight off Clover not knowing that it ends up freeing Tyrian and crashes the Manta they are on, knocking Robyn unconscious," Pyrrha said.
"Qrow reluctantly lets Tyrian help take down Clover, only for him to kill Clover with Qrow's weapon, thus framing him for murdering Clover," Weiss added.
"Poor Uncle Qrow. He lost a friend he could have actually made," Ruby said with a lowered head.
"Anyway Winter and Penny protect Fria from Cinder as she attacks," Blake said.
"After losing the Lamp, Oscar splits off from JNR and confronts Ironwood, which then leads to him shooting Oscar off the platform," Yang said.
"But luckily Ozpin comes back and saves Oscar from hitting the ground," Pyrrha added.
"Penny becomes the next Winter Maiden after Fria passes away while Cinder injures Winter," Jacob said.
"Then Ruby shows up with her silver eyes, forcing Cinder to flee like a chicken," Nora added.
"RWBY, JNR, Maria, Pietro, and Penny escape Atlas, Cinder gets the Lamp from Neo, and Qrow and Robyn get arrested," Weiss listed.
"That is when Salem herself arrives, riding a giant Whale Grimm with a Grimm army," Allen added.
"But you got to admit, Salem looks hot in that new outfit," Ricky said, earning him a slap in the head from Allen.
"You can jerk off to her later, right now this is serious," Allen said.
"So now what? We can't trust General Ironwood anymore or what?" Robert asked.
"Right now it is uncertain if he is trustworthy, but for now we try to break this information to him slowly," Jacob said.
"So far the lion lost his courage, now the tin man loses his heart, and soon the scarecrow will lose his mind," Kelly said.
"Penny becoming the next Winter Maiden? I don't know if I should say if that's a good thing or not," Ruby said.
"Most likely bad if General Irondick were to push it," Kendra said.
"Then Ironwood's trust is questionable and unstable at best," Jacob said.
"So should we let Robyn in on this?" Kelly asked.
"I think we should. She has been trying to help this entire time," Blake said.
"Yeah, all the stuff she did was all to help Mantle," Yang agreed.
"Then it's settled. If she gets too suspicious, then we'll tell here," Jacob said.
"And now there is another important thing to talk about… THAT FREAKING WHALE GRIMM!" Rebecca shouts out.
"Yeah, I know. That thing could swallow up several airships in one go," Britney said.
"You'd need a nuke to take that thing out," Ricky said.
"If Salem can create Grimm like this, then this is something we cannot take lightly," Weiss said.
Ren has been very quiet which doesn't go unnoticed.
"Ren, is there something on your mind," Jaune asked.
"Seeing myself act so out of character on the computer it's getting me concerned," Ren answered.
"Ren, no matter what happens, we're all there for you," Jacob said.
"Yeah, me too," Nora said, then kissing Ren's cheek.
"Thanks guys," Ren said.
"Well, it's getting late. We better head to our rooms," Allen said.
"Yeah, you're right," Robert said.
"Good night everyone," Jacob said.
"Goodnight," everyone said.
RWBY, JNPR, Britney and her friends all went to their rooms while Jacob and his friends stayed in their room.
