So! Sorry for not updating this faster. Got a bunch of crap going on and it's a bit hard for me to update three stories at once! Read and Review!
Yang and Glynda stared at Mike thrashing around the barrier while screaming loudly in agony. Yang had her hands over her mouth with tears streaming down her face. Watching the man she loved be in so much pain made her feel helpless in not being able to do anything. Mike kept smashing into the barrier and shot his shotguns at it in a fruitless attempt to escape. Glynda was praying to Oum that he would be able to come back to his normal self and hoped that Reaper would be gone forever.
(Inside Mike's Mind)
"AAAGGGHHH!" Reaper fell onto his back with blood spewing from his stomach as Yacidian's blade stabbed into him. Mike was standing above him panting in exhaustion and let go of his blade.
"Hehehe. This doesn't change anything. You'll never be human again. The serum's been in your body for too long and has changed you permanently. You may have beaten me, but I'll always be there to haunt you. Anytime you let your guard down, let yourself be consumed by rage and show any weakness, I'll be there to stomp on your skull and take back your body!" Reaper laughed and dissipated into the air. Mike sighed in relief and grabbed his sword.
"Then I'll always be ready to fight."
(Outside)
Mike finally stopped thrashing and was on his knees not moving at all. Glynda and Yang feared the worst as he didn't change back. He stood up and looked over to them.
"I'm back Glynda." He said in a slightly less raspy voice. Glynda was still hesitant and Mike sighed.
"I can never be human again girls. The serum Salem put into my body changed me permanently and I'll always be like this. I'ts now my curse."
Glynda lowered the barrier and Yang rushed him for a hug crying into his chest.
"I don't care! You're still my Mike! I'm just happy you're finally back!" She sobbed heavily and he held her tight.
"I'm sorry for all the pain I've caused. It's my fault that all of these terrible things happened. ASUR's death, Oobleck in shock, nearly killing CFVY, Jaune and all of you. I can't atone for what I've done. But I can make the person who did this to me suffer." He spoke with a voice full of rage and broke away from Yang's hug. She reached for him and he stepped away from her grasp.
"I can't come back with you Yang. I'm a monster, and you don't deserve to be with a monster." He said in a heavy voice that was filled with sorrow.
"NO! I lost you once! I am NOT losing you again! Ozpin can help! He can find a way to turn you back to normal! PLEASE MIKE!" She cried even harder and saw how his shoulders shook from her cries.
"This is the hardest thing I've ever done Yang. I don't want to do this, but I've got no choice. My body can never be human and It's time that Salem knows that the Reaper isn't her pawn anymore. This is goodbye Yang. Know that I'll always love you, my sunflower." A single tear streamed down his mask and he teleported away. Yang fell to the ground in anguish and couldn't stop crying. Glynda helped comfort the young huntress. Although their mission was a success, Mike still didn't come back with them.
Widowmaker was in a sniper battle with Ruby and gritted her teeth in frustration. The young huntress in training was just as good a shot as she was and was proving to be a difficult opponent. Weiss and Blake we're covering the sides, preventing her from getting an angle to shoot Pyrrha. Her concentration was interrupted by the sound of Reaper teleporting. She looked behind to see him standing and smirked at the fact that he must've killed Goodwitch. She was about to fire again when he grabbed her by the throat and slammed her against a tree. She gasped in pain and shock, stareing at him in fear.
"What in the hell are you doing?!" She choked out and he tightened his hold on her neck.
"I'm not her slave anymore. You're trying to kill my friends and if you continue to try..." He materialized one of his shotguns and put the barrel to her temple.
"I'll put you down. So what's it gonna be Widow? Work with me to kill Salem, or die here and now?" He loosened his grip on her throat to let her speak.
She coughed violently and glared at her partner, "Do I have a choice? I'll help you kill her."
He let go and she dropped to the ground taking deep breathes. Blake, Weiss, Ruby and Pyrrha witnessed this and sprinted over to their location.
"Is that you Mike? Or the Reaper?" Ruby said in a fearful voice and Mike looked over at her.
"It's me Rubes. I'm back and I'm going to bring the fight to Salem. Pyrrha, Jaune is alive. He was saved by a stranger that made me retreat so don't worry about him. Goodbye girls." He grabbed Widow's arm and teleported away. Pyrrha was shocked that he didn't have the same sadistic, sociopathic voice and knew that it was Mike. Ruby, Blake and Weiss was just as surprised as she was and the four made their way over to Nora and Ren to pick them up. The six of them went over to Yang and Glynda. Yang was crying into Ms. Goodwitch's bosom and consoled the young girl.
"What happened Yang? Why did he leave?!" Ruby asked with a voice full of concern and Yang looked at her with red, tear stained eyes.
"Mike's gone. And he's not coming back."
(Widow and Reaper)
Mike teleported at the edge of the forest and fell to one knee after teleporting so far. He stood back up and stared over at Widowmaker.
"Here's the deal. We're going to dismantle everything Salem has worked hard for. We're gonna kill Torchwick, Cinder and any other lacky that stands in our way."
She looked at him with fear and spoke, "You'rereally going to kill her aren't you? where did this vendetta come from?"
"It started when she took away my parents and clan, then she took me from my friends and now, she took away my humanity. I've got nothing left to lose. And there's nothing more dangerous, than a man with nothing to lose." His voice was filled with rage and she walked next to him.
"So where do we start?" She asked in a questioning voice.
"Immediately. We need another person to help us though. We need all the info we can get on all of her pawns and there's one who most likely does or can."
"And who would this be?"
"Sombra."
(Jaune and Genji)
"RYUJIN NO KEN WO KURAE!" The master and student screamed as their dragons clashed. Genji's smashed trough Jaune's dragon with ease and sent him flying. He struggled to get up and fell onto his back in exhaustion and threw off his helmet.
"Why was you're attack so much more powerful than mine master?" Jaune asked in confusion and Genji chuckled.
"My aura manipulation is far superior to yours Jaune. The Shimada Clan always had amazing control of their aura. For example..."
He wrapped his aura and manifested a whole other blade in his left hand. Jaune stared on in awe and Genji created a hovering aura dragon over his shoulder that he petted like a dog.
"You're combat skills with your cybernetics are superb now so it's time we start your aura manipulation training. Once you master that, you will become more powerful than you could possibly imagine. We'll start this tomorrow. I think you've trained enough for one day."
The dragon faded and Jaune followed Genji to eat and rest. He looked down at his limbs and smirked.
"Being a cyborg isn't a curse. It's a blessing in disguise that gave me another chance to live in life. I am still human." Jaune thought to himself as Genji started to make ramen with pork slices for dinner.
Sombra online! Yep! I know how much people love her, and here she is! Thank you to everyone who has read this story and followed! I love you all and hope you enjoyed the chapter! Read and Review!
