Author note:

(I just wanna talk a little bit before you guys read, but you can totally skip this. I like Adams character but his character was so inconsistent it was like he was having a seizure before just settling on being psycho ex-lover. In the trailer it was displayed he did care about Blake when he saved her and that so quickly got tossed when he met up with her again in volume 3 and tried to kill her. Then he was shown to be all about the faunus and improving their lives, something that also got thrown out during his fight with Blake. I don't know if RT realized they fucked up or not but they created Ilia, starting from scratching and setting up a character for redemption. Adam could have had redemption if they had not fucked up. They didn't even give him a good end as villain, he had no realization or anything. And his death was very improbable, he is older and more experienced in battle but got killed by two girls who've never killed before while being weak with a broken weapon. Blake's sword never would have gone through the sternum, it's the toughest bone in the body and we need high powered bone saws just to cut through it for heart surgery. I suppose Yang could have gotten him in the back but not Blake. Not when she was exhausted, weak with a broken blade. And Yangs injury from its place would have cost him a lung and that's it.

Anyways this story isn't about Bumblebee it's about Adam, his redemption, some fixing so he's at least more consistent. I'll be making him more for the faunus than the ex-lover of Blake since they didn't really show that Blake and Adam were ever lover's to begin with soooo on with the STORY lol.

P.S I've re-written the fight cut things out added some things in, it ain't fancy.)


Blake darted around through the trees desperately attempting to get away from Adam. "Can you do anything other than run!" Adam fiercely chased the black cat, using blush to shoot off wilt into Blake, the hilt jabbing her in the back knocking her to the ground.

Blake quickly rolled to her feet to continue running "I wouldn't have to run if you'd just stop following me!" Blake spun around on her heels firing off several shots at Adam only for them to be blocked. Growling Blake leaped back out of the woods to gain some distance on a bridge of rock still to be followed by Adam.

Adam instantly charged forward without hesitation swinging his sword, Blake stepped under the swing of the blade only to have wilt blown in the face of a shadow. Blake appeared just near the edge of the bridge in front of the fall to leap forward in an attack. Adam swung around with his sword and gun, Blake diverted blush with her katana catching wilt in her sheath. Lunging forward she flipped over him ripping wilt from his grasp. This didn't stop Adam from turning on his heels to shoot her, Blake leaped to avoid the shot swinging her gun down towards Adam sticking into the ground she yanked the ribbon pulling herself towards him to deliver a kick to his chest only to miss as he side stepped out of the way. He didn't lose the chance to slam his own leg into her stomach kicking her away. Disoriented from the kick Adam zoomed in on Blake bringing blush down over her head, Blake blocked with her katana diverging blush to the side. Adam grabbed Blake's wrist continuing to push his gun against her blade.

Blake grunted trying to hold off Adam as he began to shout. "We wouldn't have to fight if you hadn't chosen the humans over us!" (1) Adam released her wrist quickly grabbing wilt and swinging to the side ripping away Blake's sheath and ramming the back of blush into her temple knocking her down to the ground. "You betrayed us!" He jumped down to her swinging his sword with both his hand, Blake gasped turning into a dark mist as the sword collide with her, she appeared behind Adam swinging her own blade at him it was stopped by Adams own as he swung it over his back. Flipping blush around in his hand Adam shot back at Blake sending her flying backwards across the ground. "How can you call yourself a faunus when choose to be like one of them!" Walking towards her, he cut through the air, his blade slammed against hers as she attempted to defend herself.

Blake rolled to her knees trying to get up, panting she glared up at him "They are us, Adam!"

Adam roared, glowing red with the power of his semblance he shattered her sword like it was nothing.

Taking a breath Adam pulled off his blindfold "Humans have done nothing but hurt me, in all sorts of ways long before you came along." Blake stared up at the disfiguring scar across the right side of Adams face. His eye lid had been melded shut by his own flesh, bits of letters could be seen across his face. A brand from the SDC, maybe a punishment or perhaps to prove who's property he was. (2) "How can you fight by their side knowing what they've done?" Blake's ear's flexed upwards, the left ear turning in towards the vibrating sound of a bike she knew all too well. (3)

Blake looked up at him, "Just because some humans have wronged the faunus does not mean that they all will."

"Liar!" Adam impaled the misty shadow of Blake. She recollected her sheath standing in front of the fall holding her side, her former injury throbbing with a dull pain.

Blake growled "It's time that you open your eyes." Adam didn't have the chance to speak back as Yangs Bumblebee came flying at him. Crashing against him and sliding him across the ground before the bike itself descended into unknown watery depths. Getting to a knee Adam looked to see Yang suddenly by Blake's side. "Yang." Blake fell to her knees holding her side.

Yang smiled "take a breath, I can hold him off." Yang turned attention back to Adam "If you've got a problem with humans then why don't you fight me instead."

Grinning Adam got to his feet "you couldn't take me before what makes you think you can now?" Yang wasn't giving the chance to answer as Adam sped forward swinging his sword, Yang dodge only to step back as he took a second swing. She fired a shot off upwards attempting to divert the blade but this didn't stop Adam as with several slashes he continued to push Yang back. Yang blocked each cut with her arm and gauntlet continuing to lose more ground, wilt was hurled at her continuing to hold her back, the blade bounced back to Adam he was relentless in his assault as his kicked wilt at Yang.

Grunting Yang shot the blade into the ground, Adam hastily picked it up swinging with a blind rage for the girl. She continued to use her arm and gauntlet as a defense waiting for the time to strike. Knocking her back wasn't going to stop this blond warrior as she rushed back to the fray sliding under Adams ruthless blade to gut punch him, he didn't hesitate to pull blush on her shooting her back. Yang side stepped pulling her fist back to punch his face, Adam slammed her arm down with the hilt of his sword, swinging round and hitting her side with blush. Grunting Yang once more aimed for his stomach and took another quick jab then an upper cut and kicked him away.

Adam quickly rushed her with his blade, she grabbed hold of his wrist holding it up in the air, elbowing him once in the gut a second in the ribs, pinning his arm back to bend him over she slammed her knee into his chest. Adam broke away partially sheathing his sword to defend against the onslaught of punches. As he slid back on his feet, Yang charged forward using her own blast to gain more momentum to kick Adam, he quickly raised his sword up to cut her off losing some ground in turn as she began to release several more shots at him only for each round to be caught by his blade.

Adam grinned with immense speed he circled Yang trying to throw her off before driving his sword into the ground sending a red shock-wave in her direction. Yang put her arms up in defense sliding back against the rock.

"Yang, his semblance is like yours, he absorbs energy through his sword and throws it right back at you." Blake shouted from the ground.

Yang scoffed "He gets to dish out damage without having to feel it? That's cheap." Determined she blasted off flying in Adam's direction, unsheathing his sword Yang diverted herself to the left with a shot, giving him a graceful kick to the head. Touching down she fired more rounds off at him, Adam swung his sword forcing Yang to leap back and gain some space.

Yang charged back in through the air, Adam relied on blush shooting several shots at Yang just as she came in close he once more partially sheathed his blade using it as a shield against her. (4) He sent her hurtling back next to Blake. Blake's eyes went wide as Adam charged his moonslice, with rage he sent everything he'd stored up at Yang. Blake cried for Yang as the wave of red slammed into Yang, defending herself with her false arm she was pushed back against the edge of the rock. The dust settled revealing her arm had been mildly damaged by the attack.

Yang stepped closer to Blake, giving a stern glare to Adam "you won't win this. Enough is enough, attacking us won't change the past. . . or the future." Yang was shaken, she tried to use her words to detour Adam but memories of their previous battle still haunted her.

"Are you just saying that so you won't have to die?" Adam grinned seeing her shake. "You couldn't win two on one at haven, what makes you think you can now!?" (5)

Blake spoke up "I don't have a choice, there's people I care about relying on me. I promised them I wouldn't leave them ever again and I won't break that promise by dying now."

"You made a promise to the White Fang as well, to help your brothers and sisters, to force the humans to respect us! To make them stop treating us like slaves!" Adam argued.

Yang spoke this time "You can't force respect, you might have gained better treatment but it wasn't real. People gave you what you wanted so that they wouldn't die. Fear doesn't earn respect."

"You know nothing about the faunus!" Adam yelled.

"Your right, I don't know how bad you've had it but I've seen the mistreatment of my friends, I've seen shops refuse to let them enter just because they're a little different." Yang wouldn't deny that she didn't know everything but this didn't mean she was either oblivious. (6)

Blake frowned clutching her cleaver tightly "Don't make us do this Adam."

"You've brought this on yourself!" Adam shouted, with no hope of peacefully ending the battle both parties charged forward.

Blake and Yang leaped over Adam avoiding his first attack, Yang slid under the blade of the second swing getting to her feet she threw her fist at him. Adam blocked her punch with blush and Blake's oncoming kick with wilt. Blake phased out, appearing next to Yang. Releasing blush Adam swung his sword back at Yang who defended with her gauntlet and elbowed back at Adam.

Yang flipped over him putting some distance between them as Blake came sliding in taking several swings at Adam, not a single one connected to the bull. The cat leaped back just in time to avoid being split apart by Adams deadly blade. Blake jumped over him, back kicking him straight into Yang who delivered a brutal shot to his stomach sending him back. Adam landed on his feet defending himself against Blake, their blades scraping against each other as Blake stepped back Adam gave another slash with his blade. Yang surprised him with a punch to the head forcing him to lose his balance, Blake stepped in kicking him further back. Blake flipped back recollecting her broken gun hurling it at Adam, he reflected the gun back in her direction. Yang quickly shot over grabbing it before it could reach Blake, Blake held tightly to the ribbon as Yang hurled the feline with all her might into the bull. (7) Adam sheathed his sword blocking Blake's cleaver with his weapon using both his hands to hold her back.

The shockwave of their weapons colliding knocked them both back, Blake flew over the edge of the bridge hitting against the rocky wall. Her aura sparked at it's end as she fell down along the edge just barely managing to grab onto the rock.

"Blake!" Yang shouted for her partner unaware if she had survived or not.

"It's the moment of truth." Adam put his hand on the hilt of sword ready to draw it once more. "Do you think your faster than you were at beacon?" Yang gasped as she once again remembered their battle, her shakes began to start up once more. Adam chuckled "I didn't think so." He charged forward with a flurry of swings, Yang did her best to dodge and throw in a punch where she could but it just wasn't enough. The yellow haired huntress tried to catch her breath as she was knocked back "Your aura is bound to be running low." Adam said while clutching his blade. Yang could see Blake climbing in the distance as Adam started towards her. "Hit me already!" Yang dodge his sword continuing to try and put distance between them, Adam hurled his sword at her once more, she desperately tried to block but was knocked back. "Your kind should never have existed!" In his rage Adam used his moonslice hurling it in her direction and just as before Yang stood her ground blocking with her arms.

Without waiting for the dust to settle Adam leaped in for the final strike, his eyes went wide as the dust dissipated his red colored blade had been caught in Yang's hand. She had waited for just this moment to use her semblance. Clutching his blade tightly Yang looked at him with burning red eyes "Gotcha ya." Yanking him forward by his sword she pulled her fist back before jamming it into his gut with every ounce of power she had. She sent him flying with such force the ground itself broke and shattered into a trail that lead directly to him. Adam's own aura sparked and shattered, he struggled to his feet to grab his sword only to realize it was still in the hands of the burning blond.

"I may not be faster but I'm smarter." Yang spoke through soft pants as her own aura shattered, she chucked his sword over the side of the bridge.

"No!" Adam rushed in the attempt to grab it before it could fall only to be upper punched by Blake as she leaped upwards to safety. Adam was knocked back stepping on the broken pieces of Blakes blade.

They both looked at the broken piece of the katana and rushed for it. Adam pulled out blush firing the broken blade away from Blake before she could grab it, he continued to rush her attempting to push her back over the edge entirely unaware of Yang. Yang picked up one of the broken pieces charging forward, Adam turned at the last second as Blake phased away, Yang with the small piece of blade slashed Adam across the chest pushing against him knocking him over the edge of the fall.

Yang stumbled trying to keep her ground "Yang!" Blake grabbed hold of Yangs hand yanking her back from the edge.

Both panting and exhausted from their battle fell to their knees leaning on one another. Blake began to cry unable to contain the tears. Yang stroked her hair attempting to comfort Blake as both quietly hoped that would be the last they ever had to deal with Adam.


In a large apple field near a flowing river a young girl and her mother softly walked through collecting the last apples of the season. The small blond picked a few apples when she noticed something floating in the river, gasping in horror she screamed for her mother. "Mom! There's somebody in the river!"

"What!?" The older female walked over to her child, gasping she dropped her basket of apples rushing over to the river, she stepped into the freezing water grabbing hold of the body that had been caught on a rock she struggled to pull the man to shore. Flipping him over onto his back she pressed an ear to his chest to listen to a heart beat, it was faint but still here. "He must have just fallen in."

"Is he gonna die?" The little girl asked rushing to her mother's side. The man, Adam, began to cough as he came to, his vision blurred and a horrid ringing in his ears.

"Azula, run back to the house and get your father, he's wounded." The woman pulled his arm over her shoulder struggling to stand with the added weight. "Hey can you hear me!? Your gonna have to help me I can't carry you on my own." Adam struggled to walk with her he was so cold he couldn't even feel the pain of the gaping wound across his chest. His skin had turned a pale color and his lip dark blue. "Orrin!" The woman shouted the name of a man but Adam was losing consciousness too quickly. He attempted to look up at who was running towards him, it was like time had skipped a beat. He didn't catch a glimpse of the man but he could feel somebody else on his other side carrying him through a field of apple tree's.

"You're going to be alright!" Adam could feel the warmth of a hand press against the wound on his chest, gradually losing to the darkness with the last of his strength he look down to the hand on his chest. A bright glow came from the hand, aura, a semblance, it was an abnormal feeling. He could feel a strange tingling sensation around the wound. Adam gave in to the abyss of darkness, he didn't have the strength to keep fighting.


Author notes:

(I'm terrible at writing a fight but it needed altering and the dialog needed to be changed out since I wasn't going with Adam as psycho ex-lover but more as somebody who felt betrayed because someone he cared for didn't have the same political views he did. Kind of like my family XD I also intentionally left out the appearance of his saviors cause I'd like to save that for the next chapter. Drop some criticism, you notice some errors tell me,(Bitch you know there is some errors don't act like you didn't see them) you even got an idea drop it maybe I'll like it enough to throw it in there.
Oh some warning I am using some faulty writing program that tries to guess my words before I put them down and it does alter what I put on it's own. Kind of like auto correct on your phone. I can't afford Microsoft word so I'm making do with what I've got.)

Notes:

(1) : As I said I would be fixing Adam and making him more about the faunus, in this case he feels betrayed because Blake chose humans over their own kind.

(2): I have slightly altered Adam's scar due to the face not being a flat surface the full letter's wouldn't be there, just small bits that it could reach. The heat would be more than enough to melt the flesh of his eye together and medically speaking he wouldn't even have that eye left. The eye is like jelly it's quite delicate yet strong enough to withstand some damage too but directing a branding iron to it would completely destroy the eye even if it didn't they eye would most likely still have to be removed.

(3): I think RT has a hard time animating cat ear's or doesn't actually know that cat ear's are pretty fucking nifty and can move around quite a bit. RT has never displayed the best knowledge over cat ears, they give Blake dog droopy ears when she's sad. Kind of annoying for a cat person to see.

(4): Threw out her extra punches, Adam has more experience and could have very easily blocked the attack.

(5): Threw out their protect each other speech and hand hold cause it was cringe as fuck! And I like them but the cringe was real!

(6): Yang asked if Blake had made a promise to him or the person he was pretending to be, she didn't have the right to say this as she didn't know who he was before neither does she really know him as he is.

(7): He saw her coming so I altered the way he blocked to what he would have actually done.
