I don't own RWBY. Rooster Teeth does sadly.
Cinder sat in the stands as the tournament unfolded before her. Her plans needed some adjusting here and there to account for the failures of everyone around her. Tyrian, for all his boasting, had failed to retrieve Roman. The faunus rambled in his pain-killer addled delusion that he had been defeated by a Schnee and Siegfried Arc.
What a pain. They weren't even Silver-Eyed Warriors and you were defeated by them? Tyrian, you're making me really disappointed with each passing second, she thought, chuckling to herself. For with each passing second that Tyrian was recovering, it was an opportunity for Cinder to further cement herself in her Lady's place. While it was no secret that Salem had personally chosen her to inherit the Maiden power, it was also no secret that Tyrian was one of Salem's most trusted operatives. He was the black ops of their already dark society, dealing with things even Cinder would shudder at. The ability to be largely ignorant or even enjoy inflicting horrors even she would not think of belonged solely to someone whose mind was already lost to madness.
"Cinder."
She looked up and glanced at Emerald. "Hmm?"
"Adam and the White Fang are ready to move at our signal," Emerald said.
"Hmph, you know getting him to do that wasn't easy. I don't get why you had me and Emerald do all that. You're the one who's good at talking people like him down," Mercury said.
"You know why I changed that. Roman is still in Ironwood's hands. Due to the fact that we didn't foresee the Champion of Mistral's team dropping from the tournament, I have to find a backdoor to Beacon's system just to add them to the tournament roster. But, the finals matches are set. We're entering day 2 of the doubles so we have a sweet surprise," Cinder said.
"Sweet. How many did you manage to get?" Mercury asked.
"With… Watt's help I've made some progress but Beacon's security system is stronger than we anticipated. I've only managed to pull two names for the next match from that team alone," Cinder said.
"And who are they?" Emerald asked.
Cinder smiled maliciously as she pulled the pictures up.
"Final day of the doubles. We're almost to the finals. I can't believe Yang made it. It was touch and go there with her and Weiss for a bit," Blake said.
"Yeah, but it would be weird if Yang and Weiss lost. You guys are a pretty solid team," Jaune said.
The two were sitting next to each other, acting as the buffer between their teams. Their relationship had taken a turn since Blake's unspoken surrender and confession a few nights prior. They had grown closer not as lovers but in a more platonic way. It could honestly be said that the two were really close friends.
Pyrrha glanced over at the two, feeling slightly jealous of Blake. She had felt no hostility from her yet couldn't help but feel such an ugly emotion.
"You have way too much confidence in Yang and Weiss, Jaune," Blake retorted.
"Aw come on, Blakey. You really have that little confidence in me?" Yang asked, leaning forward and peaking at the two. The two turned to look at her. Jaune gave her a look of pity while Blake's eyes held a hidden gleam of mischief and teasing.
"Yang, we've been teammates for a while and I trust you."
"Aww, that's so sweet."
"I only trust you to lose your temper in the middle of battle and beat the enemy up. Other than that, you're more of a meat shield," Blake said.
"Ouch," Jaune added.
"Well, this meat shield's fighting in the finals," Yang said.
"Look, Sun's team won," Alice said, cheering.
"I don't like that she's doing that," Jaune mumbled.
"Alice and Sun have something going on?" Blake asked.
"No, but I think there's something there." Jaune folded his hands and stared daggers at Sun. Pyrrha giggled and placed a soothing hand on his back.
"She's a big girl. She should be able to handle herself in a fight, Mister Arc," Pyrrha said.
"Well, Miss Nikos. If my twin sister decides to date anyone, they'd need to be able to prove themselves to be able to protect her," Jaune said.
Pyrrha burst out laughing, catching Blake off-guard as well as team RWBY. What about what Jaune said was so funny that Pyrrha practically lost her bearings. Nora and Ren, who had been listening in on the conversation, chuckled a bit at Jaune's words.
Jaune and Alice's statuses as Gods meant that there would be no one on Remnant capable of dating Alice due to Jaune's standards for his twin. Not to mention that, the three had no idea how protective the other Gods were of their now reincarnated mortal older sister and her love life.
"Jaune-Jaune is really setting some impossible standards here," Nora said.
"Impossible what now?" Alice asked, coming down from her high.
"Nothing, nothing. Jaune was just talking about his standards for the men his sisters' date," Blake said.
"Standards? Hmm, I guess if Petra, Jade, Catherine, Jacinthe, or Mae started dating, I'd have some pretty high and impossible standards for their boyfriends too," Alice said, thinking aloud.
"And I thought I was overprotective of Ruby," Yang mumbled.
Weiss nodded, remembering how overprotective her older sister was of her and Whitley. It seemed that this trait was common in all older siblings as far as she had seen. Jaune, Alice, Yang, and her own sister were the only older siblings she knew well. Pyrrha didn't count as Weiss was aware of how estranged she was from her father's side of the family.
"Alright, it looks like we have one more doubles match to end it!" Professor Port said. His tone changed when he saw the names, catching their attention. "Sorry folks, it looks like this is a repeat match for one team and the first match for another? Give us a few minutes while we review the match-up."
"Did the computer make a mistake or something?" Ruby asked, glancing over to Blake.
"What are you looking at me for?" she asked.
"You're the best with computers out of any of us so…"
"That's a really weird assumption to think that I'd know what's up," Blake said, giving her teammate a deadpan look.
"Right right, sorry. It's just that after what happened at the Dance and Breach, I'm kind of paranoid," Ruby said, rubbing the back of her head in embarrassment.
"You and me both," Jaune said, agreeing wholeheartedly with his fellow team leader. While the dance did make things awkward for the two, Ruby appeared to have moved past that allowing for some amicable interactions between them. There was a silent agreement that they never brought up what happened.
"Who do you think is fighting? Isn't it kind of unfair to the team that already participated that they have to fight twice?" Pyrrha asked. "This seems to be against tournament rules."
"Maybe there's an odd number and this match is trying to even it out?" Ren wondered.
"Hmm, that seems logical," Weiss said.
"Alright. Sorry about the sudden intermission folks. After going it over with the overseeing committee of the Festival, we have determined that this match is in fact to even out the roster for the finals. So without further adieu, will the duos please make their way to the arena. The first duo is from Haven's own Team DVAA. Venus and Ares. And from Beacon's own Team JNPAR, Alice Arc and Pyrrha Nikos!"
"What?" Alice's eyes widened in shock as cheers sprung out from every Beacon student in the arena except Teams RWBY and JNPAR.
"Wait, Ozpin said that we weren't participating due to our team number. Did he change his mind to even out the finals?" Jaune asked.
"Whatever it is, we can't go against it now." Pyrrha gripped the arm of her chair.
"You two need to go get geared up. Your fight starts in a few minutes," Ren said.
"Right. Jaune, something fishy's going on here. You mind going to Ozpin and asking what the hell?" Alice asked as she and Pyrrha got up.
"Yeah. I'll go after your match starts so it doesn't look suspicious to the professors," Jaune said.
"I'll come with you," Blake said.
"No, stay here. I'll be fine," Jaune said.
Blake sighed and nodded.
"Nora and I will stay here and keep an eye on Pyrrha and Alice," Ren said.
Jaune nodded.
"You alright?" Alice asked as the two made their way to the arena.
Pyrrha sighed and nodded. "We're fighting my brother and sister."
"Don't hold back then. Treat this as another match against a stranger. Don't let anything they say get to you alright? I'm here with you every step of the way in this fight," Alice said.
Pyrrha nodded as they stepped foot into the ring.
Ares had a stoic expression on his face as he held his massive broadsword on his shoulder. He wore bronze-colored armor with large shoulder paddings and boots that appeared to be made of non-magnetic metal.
No, every piece of metal on his body is a non-magnetic metal, she thought. Her semblance did more than just move metal. Her semblance gave her a sixth sense for which metals were magnetic and which weren't. Her eyes drifted over to Venus, who had a confident smile on her face. She didn't wear an ounce of metal on her body. She had a whip strapped to her hip.
"Alice, Ares's armor and weapon is made of a non-magnetic alloy. My semblance is useless against him," Pyrrha whispered.
"Don't use your magic without your weapon. It'll look suspicious," Alice replied as she readied herself. "Any idea on what their semblances are?"
"Well…"
Pyrrha never got to explain what the semblances were as Oobleck gave the signal to start. Without much warning, Ares dashed forward, bringing down his massive sword.
Alice and Pyrrha quickly scattered, narrowly avoiding getting hit. Alice landed near the ring's edge as the terrain transformed into the ruins of a city.
"Well, shit," Alice said. "Pyrrha, brief me now!" she jumped out of Ares' range as he swung his sword once more.
Pyrrha dodged Venus's whip. She gritted her teeth as she raised her shield and deflected the whip, using her semblance.
"Ares's semblance is called Crisis Mode! The less aura he has, the stronger he hits and he moves faster too so be care-" Pyrrha's eyes grew wide as the whip wrapped around her arm.
"Pay attention to what's in front of you dear sister," Venus said, pulling Pyrrha in. She delivered a right hook to Pyrrha's face, sending her sliding back a few feet and causing her to drop Akouo. "Oh, I can't believe I have a chance to humiliate the so-called Invincible Girl in front of her boyfriend."
Venus pressed a button on the whip's handle. The whip began to transform as the thong began to straighten and stiffen, transforming into a needle-sharp blade. Venus wasted no time and thrust the newly transformed rapier at her older sister.
Forced into an defensive position, Pyrrha expertly deflected and dodged her sister's attacks.
"Using your semblance to help you, Pyr?" Venus asked, transforming her rapier back into a whip. She swung it, hoping to wrap the thong around her sister's neck. However, Pyrrha jumped over the whip, Milo into a gun and firing at her sister. Venus's attack was interrupted as the shot hit her shoulder, causing her to stumble in pain.
The recoil caused Pyrrha to fly back, landing a few feet away from Venus. She pumped aura into her legs and dashed forward, transforming Milo into a sword.
Come on, other me. This is the fight we've been waiting for, Pyrrha called out to her Ruler self.
A familiar voice appeared in her head. Well, why didn't you just say so? Her other self said with much glee in its voice. Pyrrha's eyes momentarily shifted to red as red lightning crackled around Milo.
Venus transformed her weapon into a rapier and blocked Milo. Pyrrha's forward momentum sent her sliding back a few inches.
"You're not the only one that can use dust, sis!" Venus said, grinning. Her blade ignited. The two elemental forces clashed, sending embers and sparks everywhere.
Meanwhile, Alice dodged another one of Ares' swings. She ran forward, ducking underneath another one. She jumped up, performing a triple spin ax kick to his skull, sending him sliding back.
Not allowing him to catch his bearings, Alice used fire dust on her sword and thrust it towards Ares.
Ares grinned as he suddenly lurched forward, allowing the sword to shave away a portion of his aura. In that instant, he swung his free hand, driving it into Alice's gut.
She gasped in pain as she was sent flying across the arena. Alice bounced and skidded for a few feet before hitting a wall and stopping. She shakily got to her feet, dazed by such a heavy blow.
"Was that his Crisis Mode?" Alice asked. "His swings are getting more ferocious as the fight goes on." A golden flame flickered momentarily at the edge of her eyes. "I should start getting serious too. Hey, big guy! What do you say we kick this up a-"
She disappeared and reappeared in front of Ares, catching the bigger man off guard. "A notch!" she uppercutted him with her free hand, sending him off his feet and onto his back.
Ares rubbed his jaw as he stood up before smiling and clashing blades with Alice once more.
Jaune slowly made his way up to the Professor's booth. While the students and visitors all sat in the coliseum's chairs, there were parts of the coliseum that were reserved for special guests. Foreign dignitaries, local officials, professors from other academies. These were known as the VIPs. But the professors of the hosting school had their own booths located a floor above the VIP section.
And that section was where Jaune was sure Professor Ozpin was. As he reached the sixth floor of the coliseum, Jaune began making his way down to the booth he was sure belonged to the headmaster.
"Mister Arc?"
Jaune froze, turning around to see Glynda standing behind him.
"Big Sis Glyn! What a pleasant surprise. Nice weather up here?" Jaune asked.
"Mister Ar-, no Jaune. Why are you here?" she asked, pinching the bridge of her nose in annoyance.
"I think you know why," Jaune said. "Pyrrha and Alice are out there fighting in a tournament we aren't supposed to be in. Whatever happened to that?"
Glynda remained silent, contemplating on how to best answer his question. Jaune was a smart child. While he wasn't the brightest, he had a knack for solving things and sticking his nose in places it never belonged. She sighed and beckoned for him to follow.
"I believe Ozpin would be better at explaining this than I would but let me affirm your suspicions," Glynda said. "You and your team are supposed to sit the tourney out due to the odd number of people on your team. Ozpin, Ironwood, and the organizers decided that it would be so."
"And the organizers are…?" Jaune asked.
"Ozpin, Ironwood, and I are this year's administrators but we still notify the other Headmasters of any developments made in the festival. As of now, we have yet to notify them."
"Oh. That's not the only reason, is it? There has to be more to it than evening he numbers," he asked.
"..." Glynda remained silent, opting instead to open the door.
Ozpin sat in one of the chairs, facing the arena. In another chair, Jaune spotted who he knew was Ruby and Yang's uncle, yet his face resembled someone he had met before. And on Ozpin's left was General Ironwood. The man had his hand on his chin as if he was in deep contemplation.
"Ozpin, Mister Arc is here to ask about his team's entry as you predicted," Glynda said.
"Ah, Mister Arc. Please have a seat anywhere you like," he said, gesturing to one of the many empty chairs without so much glancing at Jaune.
Jaune nodded and walked over to one of the empty chairs next to the General. He glanced out the window and smiled when he saw his sister judoflip Pyrrha's much larger half brother. His eyes drifted over to his girlfriend, who was giving her half-sister a run for her money.
"I see that you're enjoying the match. Watching your girlfriend vent her frustrations on her family must be satisfying to watch," Ozpin said.
"What? Oh yeah. Pyr's been wanting to do that for a wh- Wait a minute, that's not why I'm here," Jaune said, looking over to the Headmaster. "Why is my team participating? We didn't fight in the first round yet here we are fighting in the current round. What changed? The rules specifically state that only teams of 4 are allowed to fight."
"That is what we are trying to figure out," Ironwood said, taking his eyes off the match. He fixed the young Arc an annoyed and frustrated look. It was as if things were not going according to whatever plan they had going regarding the tournament.
"Did something happen to the roster?" Jaune asked.
"Something like that. We're looking at the possible options. Rest assured, Mister Arc. The minute we figure out what's going on. We will make a formal announcement about it," Ozpin said, sipping his coffee.
"And if you don't?" Jaune asked.
"Well, then that's it isn't it?" Ozpin glanced at the now mortal God. He had no idea how much Samael remembered of his previous life. The God of Darkness of the Old World was a prominent yet silent deity. He neither cared for nor interfered with the ongoings of mankind. However, the God expected some semblance of reverence from them. The only reason Ozpin even knew this fact was due to his counterpart's relationship with the God.
Lailah. I wish you were here right now to help guide me through this. Of the Seven of us, you were always the one who had answers, he thought. Memories of the sisterly redhead entered his mind. That tender smile and gaze of hers always brought him and the other Rulers comfort.
"Sir, this is weird. We were given a notice that we couldn't participate and yet here we are participating. Won't people question this?" Jaune asked, looking to both Ironwood and Ozpin for any semblance of logic.
"Like Ozpin said, Mister Arc. We're looking into the matter. We have our best and brightest combing the system for any suspicious activity." Ironwood focused his attention on his scroll.
"For now, I'd just enjoy the tournament, Mister Arc. There's nothing we can do at this point except have you and your team participate," Ozpin said.
"..." Jaune went silent, cursing in his head at the fact that he found out nothing. He glanced at Ironwood, whose eyes were frantically scanning the screen. Sighing, Jaune got up and headed towards the door.
"Mister Arc."
Jaune looked over his shoulder and saw Ozpin looking at him. "Do be careful."
Alice and Pyrrha backed into each other. They glanced over their shoulders, giving each other a reassuring look. The match had taken a turn. Ares was at 40% while Venus sat at a comfortable 75%.
Their aura meters were not looking all that high. Ares's' Crisis Mode had reached a tipping point and shaved off a fifth of Alice's aura, leaving her with 67% remaining while Pyrrha still had the highest of 84%.
"Got a plan?" Pyrrha asked.
Alice nodded as she raised her arm. A golden barrier deflected Ares's greatsword, sending him stumbling back. "On my mark, I'm going to run and jump off your shield."
"And what are you going to do after?"
"Kick Venus in the face before throwing her at Ares," Alice said.
"Alright, on your mark."
"What are you two whispering about?" Venus asked, sauntering her way over to them. Her whip transformed back into a rapier. She raised the rapier at them.
"Ready?" Alice asked, watching as Ares tensed his legs.
Pyrrha nodded, raising her shield.
"Close your eyes!" she yelled.
Without warning, Alice pulled a dust crystal from her pocket and threw it into the air. She channeled what little magic she knew into her sword and sliced the dust in half, releasing a massive burst of light.
Pyrrha closed her eyes as the light washed over her and Venus, stunning the latter as she was caught offguard by the sudden flash.
Alice ran forward, jumping onto Ares' chest and using him as a launch pad, sped off towards Pyrrha. She jumped onto Pyrrha's shield, who then launched her into the air. Spinning a few times, Alice performed an ax kick on top of Venus's head, causing the other fighter to gasp and slam face first into the floor.
Her aura flickered a bit as she groaned in pain.
Pyrrha ran towards the stunned Ares, using her aura to go faster. She raised her shield and bashed him, sending him off his feet and flying several feet back before sliding to a stop.
"Pyrrha, let's finish this." Alice gripped Golden Lily.
"I thought you'd never ask," she said, turning Akouo into a spear. Red lighting crackled around Akouo as she reared back and threw the spear at Ares.
The large man got to his feet, only to see his half-sister's spear slam into him. A lightning-filled explosion shook the arena, causing several lights to flicker across the stadium.
Meanwhile, Alice ran towards Venus, who rolled out of the way as she slammed her foot into the ground.
Venus growled, using her weapon's whip form to grab Alice's leg. She pulled, sweeping Alice off her feet.
The blonde gasped as she fell on her back. Her eyes grew wide as her vision became filled with Venus's boot. Barely managing to roll out of the way, Alice didn't have time to get up as Venus followed up her curb stomp with a kick to Alice's ribs.
Alice slid several feet before coming to a stop. Shakily getting to her feet, she gripped her sword tightly as Venus took off towards her. Before Venus could reach her, a red disk slammed into Venus's back, sending her falling forward onto the floor.
The disk flew back as Pyrrha caught Milo in time to block Ares's sword.
Ares grunted as he pushed, overwhelming Pyrrha with his superior physical strength. He roared, sending her flying towards Alice.
As Pyrrha flew through the air, she felt something wrap around her foot. Before she knew what was happening, she was slammed into the ground. Groaning in pain, Pyrrha moved as Venus stabbed her rapier into the ground next to her head.
Venus pulled the rapier out of the ground as Alice slammed into her. She gasped as Alice grabbed her shoulder with her free hand and headbutted her. Venus stumbled back in pain and surprise.
"Let's see you seduce another guy with that face!" Alice yelled as she delivered a powerful haymaker to Venus's face. The force of the blow sent her head snapping to the side and falling to the ground in pain.
"ALICE!" She jumped as Ares swung his greatsword at her. Alice gritted her teeth. Aura arms manifested from behind. She clasped the hands together and spiked Ares.
Ares raised his sword and blocked the attack, the force of the two blows colliding cracking the arena floor and creating a small crater.
While the two were locked, Venus managed to recover from Alice's punch and thrust her rapier, transforming it mid-thrust. The blade extended, sending a sharp serrated edge towards Alice's exposed torso.
Pyrrha's hand glowed black as the blade swerved out of the way. Venus turned her furious gaze towards her older half-sister, who was charging towards her.
She retracted her blade. Amplifying her speed, she let loose a relentless barrage of thrusts towards Pyrrha. Pyrrha raised her shield in response, blocking the attacks with a combination of her shield and semblance.
"Pyrrha!" Alice gritted her teeth and dematerialized the arms. She landed on the ground and ducked underneath Ares's swing. She did the one thing that made all the men in the stadium cringe. Infusing her fist with aura, she prayed that she wouldn't do irreparable damage to the man. With one furious swing, she punched Ares's in the genitals, causing the giant warrior's face to cringe and scrunch up in pain.
Regardless of whether or not he had aura, pain was still pain and Ares fell to the ground in a ball in more pain than he could ever imagine.
"ARES!" Venus yelled.
"The first rule of fighting that that man ever taught us was to never take our eyes off our foe!" Pyrrha yelled.
Venus gasped, suddenly remembering that her half-sister was there. She had no time to respond as Pyrrha backhanded her with her shield.
"Sorry man but I promised I'd win!" Alice said as she kicked Ares into the air with surprising strength. She manifested an arm that grabbed him as he flew and slammed him back down into the ground hard.
"Fighter Ares is down with 10% of his aura left!" Port announced.
Pyrrha rushed forward, dodging and evading Venus's rapid strikes.
Venus's eyes widened in crazed fury. She suddenly inhaled and exhaled a large blast of pink gas. Pyrrha's eyes widened as the gas engulfed her.
Pyrrha stood in the middle, scanning all her sides.
"..." she raised her shield as a shade flew towards her. The shade made contact with her shield, pushing against her. Pushing back, she swung her shield, shattering the misty figure.
"I should've used this earlier. It would've been far more fun humiliating you in front of your boyfriend with this!" Venus's voice rang out from every direction.
Pyrrha's mind began to swim as her vision began to get hazy. Venus's semblance… Misty Dreams. A hallucinogenic mist that traps the user in an illusion and knocks them out...
"Your semblance… it's good against everyone you fight but…" Pyrrha's eyes glowed. The mist would allow her to fully extend her magic without fear of getting spotted. "This only works if the mist is still here!" Fighting through her drowsiness, Pyrrha raised her hand and formed a black and red ball of lightning. She crushed it in her fist, sending a crackling wave that dispersed the mist.
Pyrrha gasped, inhaling large amounts of air as she fell to her knee, feeling fatigued.
"You think that dispersing my mist will do anything for you?"
Pyrrha looked up, seeing Venus standing in front of her. The girl reached her hand out, caressing her older sister's face. "Sweet dreams, Big Sis."
"Aren't you forgetting someone?"
Venus looked over to the source of the voice, only to see a gloved fist fill her vision.
"That's twice you forgot about me!" Alice yelled as she sent Venus stumbling back and dropping her rapier. She ran forward, not allowing Venus to regain her bearings. She swung her sword, slashing Venus several times on her arms and torso.
Venus gritted her teeth as she felt her aura chipping away. Her eyes managed to see through the onslaught of cuts.
30%
Fighting through, she coated her hand in aura and caught Golden Lily.
Alice's eyes grew wide as she tried to pull the sword away. She let out a gasp of air as Venus punched her in the solar plexus. Alice let go of the sword and stumbled back in pain.
Venus took Golden Lily in her hand and began slashing at Alice. Alice raised her arms, creating a thin golden barrier that barely held back the attacks. "Taking you down first! Sure! At least I can give Pyrrha a sho-"
She leaned her head back, narrowly avoiding the blade of her own rapier. Her furious gaze turned to her older sister, who had gotten back up.
Pyrrha stepped forward, pushing Venus back with her relentless fencing. Venus could barely keep up with Pyrrha's renewed speed. She thrust the rapier, pushing Venus back several feet with an aura-infused thrust.
Pyrrha clicked a button on the sword as she swung the whip, wrapping around Venus's leg. She pulled it back, sweeping her younger sister off her feet.
"Alice, now!" she used her semblance to tighten the coil and increased the force on Golden Lily, forcing it down and pinning Venus's arm.
Alice ran forward, grabbing her sword. Pyrrha let go of the sword and threw Venus into the air.
Alice ran towards Pyrrha, who raised her shield and threw her teammate into the air.
There, she performed an ax kick that sent Venus hurtling back down towards the arena and slamming into the ground with such force that it ruptured a good fourth of the ring.
"And with a brutal knockout kick, Venus is no longer able to fight! The match goes to Alice Arc and Pyrrha Nikos of Team JNPAR!" Port announced.
Pyrrha sighed and dropped the rapier. She smiled at Alice, who sat in the middle of the ring. Alice returned her smile with a bloody one and gave her a thumbs up.
"Well, that was a fun match to watch," Mercury said, leaning back in his chair.
"Looks like we have two potential candidates for the finals, right Cinder?" Emerald asked.
She received no response from her leader. "Cinder?" Emerald turned to see Cinder. The woman's gaze was fixated on both Pyrrha and Alice. The power inside her screamed at her to flee. Not from the champion but from the blonde.
"CINDER!"
"Huh?" Cinder looked up and glanced over at Emerald.
"Cinder, are you alright?" Emerald asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Now… let's move on with the next phase of our plan, shall we?" Cinder said, smiling as she tapped a few buttons on her scroll.
We're almost there to the Finals Match. I will have Pyrrha meet with Ozpin in the coming chapters to discuss the Fall Maiden. Though that conversation will go differently, I can assure you of that. The matches for the Finals will be mostly canon. Yang vs Mercury and Penny vs Pyrrha being the ones that stay the same. I can't wait to get to the Fall of Beacon where things are blown into the open. And without further adieu, I shall sign off here.
