The screen began to bubble and boil as the familiar silver door rose from it's depths, the thick purple chains corroding and breaking apart as the door opened up and bathed everything in dark purple.
From the tainted light, came a single red eye that glared at the screen before the door slammed shut and everything became static, a crumbling rose symbol appearing every so often as the title began to form.
The Ruinverse: Chapter Eighty, Fragmentation of Self.
Xxxxxxx
-Remnant, Anima, Lake Matsu-
BZZZZZZZZZZZ!
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
CRASH!
BEEP BEEP!
Chaos and the sound of insect wings echoed across the sky as giant wasp-like Grimm, known by many as Lancers, continued their neverending attack on the Atlasian cargo airship, trying to destroy its human passengers in an instinctual frenzy.
And within the ship, held in place by a black glyph on their feet, was a short pale skinned young woman with long white hair that is pulled back into an off-center ponytail on the right side of her head that went to her knees, pale blue eyes, a B cup chest and small ass, wearing a short long sleeved glittering dress with a gray blue gradation at the hem and a gray sweetheart neckline, a white tulle petticoat, a slightly sheer long sleeved gray blue bolero, a large silver encrusted sapphire brooch with three pendants dangling the bottom, silver encrusted sapphire drop shaped earrings, a silver icicle-shaped tiara, a white sash is wrapped around her waist, a white snowflake shaped emblem on the back of the shrug, gray blue wedge heels, and holding a silverish gray rapier with a four pronged hilt and a revolver-like chamber in between the prongs containing different colored Dust crystals within them, in her left hand, who continually fired ice crystals and fireballs at the Grimm in an attempt to prevent them from ending their lives.
This was Weiss Schnee, and at this moment, she was successfully destroying some of the Lancers that came close to the ship.
BAM!
BAM!
Well, almost as at that exact moment, white harpoon-like stingers broke through the steel outer coating as two Lancers firmly planted themselves on the top of the ship, their brethren following soothe as they began swarming the ship like locusts.
"I got an idea!" yelled the pilot, one Fenix Atar of the Atlasian Cargo Company, as he quickly accelerated the ship towards the Gravity Dust lined islands. "Hold on! Literally!"
WOOOOOSSSSSHHHH!
'We're going to die!' Weiss thought in a moment of panic as she heard the buzzing of wings in her ears, making her really develop a small phobia of insects at the moment. 'We're going to die!'
WOOOOSSSSSH!
CRUNCH!
CRUNCH!
And in a sudden moment of descent, the airship dove downwards below the islands as the Lancers found themselves flying off the ship and with a loud thud, crashed upon the rock formation, killing them instantly.
"Ha ha!"
"Can you find a pair of islands we can fit between?" Weiss asked while trying to steady herself, feeling her stomach doing flips from the sudden descent. 'Please don't puke!'
"Kid, you are reading my mind!" He grinned while moving the ship towards a chain of interconnecting islands, avoiding the narrow walls and Lancer Grimms as Weiss fired several fireballs at the Grimm.
WOOSH!
BOOM!
Causing several overhanging rocks to fall upon the Grimm, killing them as something, sleeping within a hidden cave, began to stir from their slumber.
"Yeah! Great going, kid! We are in the clear!"
As Weiss sighed in relief, her mind relaxed and calmer than before.
BAM!
BZZZZZZZZ!
The ship experience high turbulence as a massive black wasp-like creature with pure red eyes, a pure white armored mask, jagged white pincers, long black antennae, six long legs with white spikes on the ends, thick white overlapping plates on its body that segmented from three to seven as it moved towards the abdomen, four large red translucent wings, thick red marking on the thorax and a massive white stinger, appeared from below and quickly rammed the ship with its body, causing Weiss to stumble a little.
"It's a Queen Lancer!" she yelled as her glyphs began to flicker, her aura getting damaged from the sudden jolt of force as she tried to keep her balance.
"What?!"
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
"Do something!" Fenix yelled through the speakers as Weiss' glyph began to fail, causing her to slide across the cargo bay like a slippery sponge.
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
But as Weiss tried to grab onto one of the Dust crates, intending to use it in her attempt to destroy the Queen Lancer, she quickly lost her footing and fell out of the airship.
BZZZZZZZ!
CHOMP!
And was quickly consumed by the Grimm in one large gulp, shocking Fenix in the process.
"Holy shit-"
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
BOOOOM!
In an instant, the ship exploded, sending its remains down towards the lake below as the Queen Lancer hovered over the spot, seemingly unaffected by the explosion.
BZZZZZZZZZZZ!
As the massive insect-like Grimm flew back to its cave, annoyed at being disturbed for a mere annoyance, thick white cracks began to form around its body, forming small snowflake-like glyphs with every passing second.
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
CRACK!
CRACK!
CRACK!
Bright white light formed over the creature's body, illuminating the cave as the Grimm began to hiss in pain, its body contorting inwards as the light became brighter and brighter, akin to a falling star's light.
(Several hours later)
The sun began to set in the distance, its red hues turning the lake water a crimson orange color as all was peaceful.
Yet within the cave, a strange…quietness permeated the area, giving it an unnatural sense of dread.
Drip.
Drip.
Drip.
Drops of condensation fell from the hanging stalactites as the camera zoomed deeper into the cave, a trail of black slime oozing across the cave floor.
Babum.
Babum.
Babum.
Babum.
Deep guttural 'heartbeats' broke the silence as, within a large cavern filled with blackened slime, the camera began to move towards a large white cocoon, its surface coated in a viscous black slime that seemed to be eating away the granite rock formations around it.
Babum.
Babum.
Babum.
Babum.
Crack.
Crack!
Crack!
Suddenly, the cocoon's surface began to develop cracks, each one oozing with black slime as it twitched every so often.
Crack!
Crack!
CRACK!
SHATTER!
As the cocoon's shell began to fall apart, the ooze dripping all over the floor like overflowing water in a tub, a figure slowly arose from the slime, a faint buzzing sound echoing within the cave and amplified by its numerous acoustic caverns that ran throughout the floating island's interior.
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
The slime slid off the figure's body as the dark blue moss lined walls revealed them to be an extremely tall bleached marble skinned young woman with long black hair that trailed downwards to her feet, pure red eyes, two long black antennae with snowflake-like tips, thick black overlapping plates on the shoulders, arms, legs, back, chest and hips, pure red markings all over her body and forehead, four long clawed hands, long rapier-like nails, a I cup chest and massive ass, six massive translucent red wings on her back and a massive thorax with a thick scimitar-like black stinger, whose eyes blinked rapidly at the sudden lighting in her previously dark world.
BZZZZZ!
The woman's wings slowly pumped with black blood as they extended outwards, moving quickly as the slime dispersed from her body, her mind…a complete blank.
What was she?
Who was she?
And why does she have a craving for raw meat?
All these thoughts swam in her head like a fish in tar, unable to recollect anything at all, not even a name. Yet, she knew three things that seemed to stick out amongst the jumbled mess that was her sanity.
One, she was important and superior to everyone else.
Two, the world needed to be cleansed of filth.
And three, she needed subjects to love her.
Twitching her head from side to side, she began to move her limbs around, joints creaking as a low inaudible hum emanated from her throat, the sound of buzzing echoing from the caverns…getting louder and louder with every passing second.
BZZZZZZZZZZ!
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
And lo, Lancers….hundreds of thousands of Lancers….all of various sizes as they scurried or flew into the cave, their wings creating a high pitched frequency that could shatter crystal.
The woman stared at the monstrous Grimm, each one designated as either Drone or Queen, as she smiled at them with interest, her wings buzzing louder than a thunder clap.
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
"Come…" she said, her tone filled with malice and a craving insatiable by any human standards as her thorax swayed from side to side.
BZZZZZZZ!
The Lancers, seeing the woman approaching them, bowed to her as she licked her lips with a long black tongue-like proboscis.
"Join me. Sire your children with me." she said as the screen began to darken. "Give to me thy armies."
(A year later)
-Anima, Mistral, Haven Academy-
"AAAHHHHHH!"
"GRIMM!"
"MILLIONS OF THEM!"
The city's residences screamed in terror, both humans and faunus, men and women, as they ran for their lives, the skies blackened with the bodies of Lancer Grimms, each one either divebombing the humanoid species and carrying them away or landing on the burning buildings and consuming them outright.
BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
As the people were decimated by this unprecedented swarm of Grimm, the camera zoomed towards the academy and into the grand hall….which was now covered in black slime as strange white eggs lined the room from top to bottom, each one pulsating like a still beating heart.
SQUISH!
Kathunk!
Yet the room…wasn't devoid of life as in the center of the room was the strange humanoid Grimm, her thorax massive, bloated and continually laying eggs as she was currently feasting on the remains of Mistral's people, her lips stained with blood and entrails.
CRUNCH!
SQUISH!
CRUNCH!
SIIISH!
BZZZZZZ!
She looked up from the meal, consisting of a human arm, and saw the Soldier Drones flying towards her, dropping various humans and faunus on the slime as she licked her lips. "Excellent."
SHISH!
As her left arm extended outwards towards the citizens, several black snowflake-like glyphs appeared all around her body and released several white clawed arms that grabbed them and pulled each one near the grinning woman's position.
"More food to fuel my army." she chuckled as the screen began to fade to black, the sounds of cracking bones and screams echoing in the background. "Soon, I shall be this world's queen. I shall be its most beautiful queen."

Semblance(s): Glyphs (Permanently active)
Bio: In this timeline, during the airship flight over Lake Matsu, a swarm of Lancer Grimms attacked the ship like in canon, however, in the scuffle with the Queen Lancer, Weiss tripped in combat and fell off the ship, right into the open mandibles of the Grimm. As her body began to be digested by the Grimm's stomach acid, she attempted to use her Glyphs to escape the belly of the beast, but due to her decreasing aura and increased adrenaline, the semblance went out of control and instead of escaping, she and the Grimm were fused into a single entity, a humanoid Queen Lancer Grimm. With all the strengths of a Grimm and the intelligence of a human, she would be left with fragmented memories as the fusion process amplified her negative traits by a hundred fold and her semblance was permanently active, unable to de-fuse without her ceasing to exist after a few seconds. Over time, her memories and mind would enter a darker place, viewing herself as the true Queen of the Grimm and viewing other sentient species as her prey, resulting in her taking control of the Lancers of the world and, after breeding with them, spawned mutated strains of the Grimm, all of them with the immunity towards Dust, aura and semblances. In over a few days, her armies were birthed into this world, and in a few months, her armies of a billion Lancers devastated the four Kingdoms, killing millions and sending civilization back to the dark ages, the survivors becoming food for her growing brood. By the end of a short three years, the Lancer species became the dominant species of Remnant, the former human, calling herself Queen Weiss, would continue creating her armies, each one becoming more and more deadly with every successful conquest. Soon, the world will fall into an ecological disaster by her ravenous brood's appetites, yet for her, she only cares for one thing, the birth of a new age…the Age of Lancers. To lose one's memories is one thing, but losing everything that made you, you? Kinda depressing really.
