DBRR CH 16;
Grimm roar as Weiss and her comerads land onto trees and on top of the grimm to land safely.
Weiss freezes a horde of 12 incoming grimm and May lands in a tree some yards away. May steady's herself and blasts the grimm to peices with one shot.
Meanwhile, Ren, Nora, and Jaune ended up falling on top of a flying grimm. They attack it carefully, until Nora just slams her hammer down on it and it goes soaring downward. Ren grabs Jaune then grabs onto Nora's Hammer and they soar to the next flying Grimm. They perch on top of it and try to stay on top as best they can.
Ren and Nora use their guns and shoot down all the other aerial grimm they can. While Jaune tries to steer the grimm by yanking on its furr...which clearly does not work very well and it starts shaking violontly around. The grimm flips upside down, and The 3 of them grip on tightly trying to stay on. The grimm then swoops rushing forward and flipping upside down. Nora and Ren acrobatically jump to seperate smaller flying Grimm. Jaune just falls off into a tree.
Ren and Nora quickly learn how to manipulate the lesser grimm's flight pattern. They fly around the area trying to shoot any further grimm they see. They fly past Octavia, Sage and Ciel who are fighting a horde of large Beowolves.
The 3 of them Nod at eachother and do a combo attack, Octavia blinds the surrounding grimm. Sage instantaniously does a blast into the sky holding onto Ciel. Ciel is thrusts downward from above and kills all blinded Grimm in the area.
As Sage flies back downward, Gwen is seen flying past and goes directly for Ruby's team thrusting knife after knife at them as she flings herself faster toward them. Flynt and Neptune follow not far behind Gwen. Nora and Ren grab Flynt and Neptune as they begin to drop to the ground. They follow Gwen toward Ruby's team.
Neo steps forward and Blocks all incoming attacks from Gwen with her umbrella. As the other 4 get closer and begin firing on them Ruby's team jumps backward and rushes down the backside of the hill. Neo opens her umbrella and faces off with Gwen. Nora amd Ren quickly change course and head toward the back hillside.
Jaune finally comes off of the tree he was in and immediately is ran into by grimm tramplong him. In fact they just run him over and keep moving forward toward the hill. Jaune just lays on the ground in a daze in pain. Octavia walks up to him and helps him up.
"Come on Jaune we've gotta follow the others!" Octavia Leads the 3 of them toward the hill. Until stopped by a Deathstalker grimm.
"Oh not one of you agaiiiiin!" Jaune whines.
A little scared Octavia backs up. Jaune steps forward swallowing his fears and takes lead directing Octavia's team on how to kill it.
Sprinting past them is Ozpin, Qrow, and Oobleck on a Goliath. The Goliath is uncaring of them on it's back and seems intent on rampaging toward its goal.
As the Goliath nears the mountain, Ozpin jumps off and jumps into Gwen and Neo's fight, deflecting attacks from Neo. Gwen doesnt back down and fights alongside Ozpin.
Ozpin blocks Neo's advances while Gwen Launches her knives at Neo. Then Ozpin pushes forward. The two of them eventually back Neo into a wall and she looks around on both sides of her, then forward. Neo continues blocking all attacks long enough to watch their movements, taking a few hits to test their movements. After a couple more knife wounds and a smack to the knee from Ozpin, Neo sees her oppertunity and Strikes through the array of knives. Ozpin thinks to go on the offense, But Neo strikes past Ozpin stabbing straight into Gwen. Neo releases fast and dissappears before she can be struck.
Gwen hits the ground bleeding out of her wound. Ozpin tries to bandage Gwen up but exclaims that it's a deep wound and is possibly a poisonious one. Gwen starts getting afraid she's going to die. Ozpin tells her to sit and rest or the poison will spread and kill her quicker.
Octavia gets to Gwen and worries what's happened. Ozoin explains to her she's been hit and possibly poisoned. Octavia springs into action and grabs her blade, undoing the bandaged wound. Octavia puts her lips on the wound and tries to suck any poison out fast. Unfortunately for Gwen, after Octavia believes she has sucked enough of the poison out she grabs her sword and burns the remaining infection with extreme heat ceasing any further bleeding with embers/fire fire.
Gwen winces and tears in pain as she feels the fire burning heavily. Octavia holds onto her partner and tells the rest of them to move forward, she will stay behind and protect Gwen while she recovers.
Everyone nods and moves forward, specifically they run around different sides of the hill. May catches up just behind the group and climbs up to the top of the hill gaining as much advantage as she can.
Everyone reaches Ruby's team and attack all 4 of them. Ruby sees the Sniper up on the hill and knows they are at a disadvantage. Ruby directs her team toward a direction in the field of forest.
Neo and Blake block all incoming attacks as Coco Jumps onto Ruby's back and she sprints off. Blake leaves more than one copy behind running away as Soon as Ruby takes off. Neo dissappears in a flash as soon as Blake has sprinted away.
Everyone doesnt give up or stop. They immediately give chase to Ruby's team. Everone but Octavia and Gwen rush toward the direction they ran. Blake's Copies act as a minefield, but no one realizes it until everyone is in the center and Ruby's team is free of the blast radius. Blake unleashes her unstable fury and explodes the entire field.
Ozpin and Weiss try protecting everyone from the blast, Jaune attemptes as well his shield could only protect in front of him.
As the smoke clears and fires scorch the area, everyone stands up trying to recover from the blast. Mostly everyone is ok, but Ciel, May and Nora took the hardest hits.
The 3 of them have quite a bit of missing peices of clothing that were synged, or just plain burst into flames.
Nora is missing a majority of her clothing except undergarments. All that remains for her otherwise is a small bit of her top that remains very burned, and the lining for her skirts waste area. Her hair is synged on the edges.
Ciel is missing the left side and back part of her skirt. Ciel tries to keep her skirt up but it just keeps falling so she decides to just throw it off. Ciel's hat is all that remains in perfect condition, her hair however got synged a bit. Her watch also melted to her skin.
May on the other hand, her clothes have various burn holes and her beanie took the most damage being mostly burned up. Her hair has been darkened by the flames. Her Sniper has taken some damage, it's salvagable but limited on how much she will be able to use it until it's fixed.
The only other person who took damage is Ren who's shoes burned off and his weapons are discolored.
Everyone tries to collect themselves and check for any further damaged things. Weiss tries to soothe Ciel's wrist where her watch melted by using her ice on it.
Ciel falls onto Weiss as she feels extreme pain from it. Weiss pats her head holding her while she tries to heal it freezing it further. She lets up on the ice realizing she may be causing her to burn further. Weiss rips off a bottom part of her combat skirt, and wraps it around the wound and lightly freezes the cloth and says to her, "There, it should heal now, We can disinfect when this is over."
Ciel responds, "Thank You"
Everyone else just looos flustered at their own damages. Weiss uses what energy she can to try and ice anyone else's burn spots.
As it grows darker May looks through her sniper and Catch's the flash of Ruby's rose's far off in the distance. Everyone whos taken damage takes a deep breath. Then everyone rushes forward toward the movement.
They catch up to who they think is Blake but is another copy tricking everyone.
Blake is the last to get caught up with The goal area and not far behind her even after the trick is Weiss's group. When Ruby's team comes into view they see where it all is ment to end, where it began.
The ruins of the Vytal Festival's Arena.
