Back again with Raygha, in the 4th chapter (true) of The Great Lizard in Remnant or should I add 'with friends'? Well whatever. I change this fic rating change to M due to SCP-682 fighting style. Now on to the story.

3rd pov
There was an intense battle between team JMNE and SCP-682. Team JMNE fought hard to destroy SCP-682 completely, therefore, he was still trying to adapt his body by fighting them.
It looked evenly matched. SCP-682 deflected everything that Team JMNE threw at him. Merag tried to stab him from behind with his spike, but SCP-682 dodged it in pure instinct. He had experienced and had even partaken in many battles, with some opponents being super powered beings and having ridiculous speed. Even though he was mostly defeated by them, the experience was still intact.
Jane approached SCP-682 with her athletic speed and punched him with her tonfa, but it proved to be futile when SCP-682 grabbed her hand. Jane used her other hand to punch him, but was again deflected by SCP-682's other hands. Nero came to the rescue by trying to cut off the reptile's head, but he deflected it with his jaws. It was at that time that Jane found an opening and used her semblance.
Her semblance was called "Burst": anything that she touched would explode upon impact. When she poured more aura into it, the bigger of an explosion it would cause.
She punched the chest with her right hand and the area exploded, even though she also suffered because of how close she was to the target. But it was worth it. Now, they hoped that SCP-682 would be destroyed for good.
"Did you get it? Did you finally vaporize it?" Ezekiel questioned with his scroll still intact in his pocket, recording everything.
"Yeah! Course! My explosion is the strongest after all!" The female member replied to the albino with a smug grin.
"It's quiet, though, but that's a little bit disappointing to me. I though he'd be tougher if he's really a legendary Grimm from the tale. That's not even close to what I imagined the Overlord to be," the blue-haired boy continued with a sigh.
"Well, it's better. I hate to put so much effort. Now, lets go home!" Nero sheathed his blade to his back.
"Alright, team! Mission success. No lesser Grimm is sighted, so it's time to go home!" Jane excitedly declared since she was satisfied enough with the fight.
"Well, it's quite beneficial for our mission to be encountering a new type of Grimm. Hope we can even do better in our next mission," Nero thought while thinking about future plans. But then, his semblance kicked in.
His semblance had two variations: one was to detect movement, and the other was to sense hostile intent. He felt massive amounts of hostile intent in his back...and it was directed towards Jane.
There was no time to look back to confirm who it was, because that hostile intent approached faster than any human could ever sense. But due to his semblance, he was able to predict the movement of it, and he hurriedly approached Jane, pushing her away along with his teammate.
And at that moment, he felt his heart.
-II-II-
Back at the foundation, SCP-3000 was finally done altering the three SCP anomalies' power: for SCP-053, she altered a bit about the anomaly that she possessed. Now, that ability could only be used if her aura was depleted to zero; otherwise, she couldn't do anything else with her other power.
But her aura was fearsome. How could she have that much? This was always her thought about her...she was truly mysterious, even more mysterious than SCP-682.
Maybe SCP-3000 could ask SCP-343 about 053.
And then there was SCP-999. He requested that he had something that would allow him to be able to interact with the humans easily. He was aware that his current body was not good enough to be friendly with either humans and animals.
Of course SCP-3000 would do it. Who could resist such a cute little bundle of joy with that cute little eyes and mouth? Although normal humans might find it disgusting, he would be a great companion because he was loyal as a dog. She decided to alter the aspect of his body without affecting his abilities.
So she made him a Mimic Slime, which was one of the sub races of slimes. Mimic Slime was capable of taking a human form, but he had to devour a human in other to do that. She couldn't just turn him into a human...he had his liquid body that can make his tickling deadly enough to even conquer SCP-682 for a moment.
That's why Mimic Slime was the best choice if he really wanted to interact with the living better. By just devouring humans, he can take their forms as well as their memories. That meant he could have their experience, so the more he would devour, the stronger he became. And other humans will not fear him.
But SCP-999 declined that idea. He vowed to himself to never eat meat, so there was no way that he will do that. However, she still changed his sub race to Mimic Slime for adaptation purposes, whether he liked it or not.
SCP-2599 said that she wanted to get rid of her own power, but SCP-3000 couldn't erase it, even with her Reality warping, because she didn't have the authority to change it. Plus, she still needed that power, so she instead suppressed it by sealing it with her aura, which made -2599 the same as SCP-053, if her aura was depleted to zero...because then, she would be able to activate her anomaly power.
When -3000 asked her opinion about this and on what the aura was, 2599 only nodded.
SCP-3000 could unlock their aura, even though she had no connection to a soul like humans and other living existences had. But she had seen Summer do this to someone, so she might mimic her a bit on how to unlock it.
However, she was focusing her conscious on other things in there. She couldn't connect with SCP-682 at the moment, so she hoped he was not causing chaos.
-II—II-
All team members gawked in horror; Nero Claude's chest had been pierced by SCP-682's skeletal hand, obliterating his heart. Ezekiel screamed while his brother and Jane grew furious, and, without hesitation, she dashed with all her might, causing a sonic boom while approaching SCP-682 with her impossible speed.
Screaming at the top of her lungs, she punched SCP-682's carapace. If her punch before didn't even budge him, it did now with her semblance. His face was blown up with the force of a cannon, making SCP-682 bounce back and destroy several trees, chopping all of them down and crashing into a giant boulder, creating quite a large crack in it.
SCP-682 was satisfied, since he wasable to control his new body right now, but his carapace had been broken by Jane. Thankfully, his regenerative power kicked in, fixing his carapace in a moderate speed.
"There is still three more," SCP-682 mumbled with an invisible sadistic grin.
"Nero! MERAG! How's Nero's condition?!" Jane called, a worried expression gracing her face.
"…" Merag didn't answer her question, and Jane gasped, refusing to think of the implications.
"Ezekiel! Where is the first aid?!" She shout at Ezekiel, looking at him. He already had the first aid kit out...but why was he just standing there? Why wasn't he helping him? They were friends, weren't they?
Jane approached him with a furious glare on her face. "WHY ARE YOU JUST STANDING THERE?! ONE OF OUR FRIENDS GOT HURT! WHY DO YOU STAY SILENT?! ANSWER ME!"
Jane couldn't hold her wrath anymore and grabbed his shoulder with force, almost hurting him with her grip, but he ignored it.
Wait...was he…crying?
"I'm sorry…if only I could react faster. IF ONLY I WAS FAST ENOUGH! THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED!" He shouted at her with a hint of regret.
"What do you mean? You don't mean that he is..." Her words cut off by his next ones.
"HE IS DEAD! FOR THE LOVE OF...! HE IS DEAD! THE GRIMM CRUSHED HIS HEARTH! THERE IS NO WAY THE FIRST AID CAN DO SQUAT! LOOK!" He pointed at Nero's chest.
He was right; there was quite a deep hole in there...and no sign of breathing from Nero. Merag closed Nero's eyes for the last time.
This couldn't end here. No! Jane wouldn't accept this. They were supposed to be the best team. And yet...one of them was killed on their first mission.
No...she wouldn't accept this!
Suddenly, Jane and the rest of the team heard the footsteps of that abomination...the Grimm was still alive and showed no signs of being hurled by her last punch. It was like a completely new Grimm, but Jane knew from instinct that it was still the same one from before.
The Overlord...and friend killer...she...she...SHE WILL KILL IT!
Jane grabbed Nero's sword and dashed at the Grimm. Ezekiel and Merag tried to stop her, but it was too late. She kicked his face, but her attack was blocked by his left hand. She then swung Nero's sword vertically, but that was also blocked by his left hand, creating a 'clang' sound.
The Grimm then countered by trying to grab her head with his right hand, but Jane manage to duck and uppercut his jaw with her tonfa, then shooting his jaws with a shotgun. He stumbled a little and she took that moment of weakness to swing Nero's blade on him, but the Overlord blocked the attack by grabbing it. He refused to let go, so she used her tonfa, but he managed to disarm that (with his feet) the moment she tried to punch him. Jane then used her semblance and punched him in the carapace again, blowing him up and forcing him to let go of Nero's blade.
She then used the second form of Nero's blade and gathered Dust to prepare the sequence of Railgun mode. The middle of the blade split up into two, and blue electrical energy emerged from it. She adjusted the energy to 200%, the highest amount that the blade could unleash. It would take sometime to recharge, and that Grimm had already recovered from the explosion.
She couldn't make it in time...but her friends helped her from behind.
"You are troublesome, huh, Jane? Well, whatever. You better not miss. We will hold him up." Merag sneered with his pike by his side.
"Let's do this, Jane! Even though I'm still shocked, I know we don't have time for mourning. We will end this, no matter what." Ezekiel added with high determination.
"Wow...you are all really my best friends. Let's avenge our friend's death by killing this abomination once and for all. Let's go, Formation Fortress!" I declared while the other team nodded, taking their positions in front of me.
Formation Fortress' objective was to protect the object from any harm by using the members' strengths to protect said object. In this case, the targeted object would be the railgun; they had to protect it at all costs.
Merag tried to distract him from the rail gun by stabbing his neck, but the Grimm dodged it and moved faster than any eye could see, slapping Merag and making him bounce off quite far. The Grimm now tried to approach me with its incredible speed, but Ezekiel appeared in front of it and mauled it. The Overlord was still able to dodge it, but it had to stay back.
Merag ambushed it from the back, but somehow the Overlord managed to dodge and back-flip out of the way. Merag wouldn't let this momentum keep up, so he activated his another semblance.
He was a rare case: he had two semblances. One was called 'sharp extension', when he could extend his blade to gain a longer reach, with the tip of the blade having some kind of aura, even when his body was still far away.
With this, he managed to stab The Overlord's heart, his pike already been imbued with fire Dust. When the tip of the blade made contact, The Overlord burned both inside and outside, leaving him stunned since he wasn't able to see while being incinerated.
But if Jane's punch was not strong enough to kill him, she knew that he wouldn't be finished off with that kind of attack.
"Jane! Done yet? Looks like he still want to fight." Merag tried to confirm.
Everything was set.
"With this…we will avenge you, Nero...TAKE THIS, YOU UGLY MONSTER!" Jane shot the railgun, creating a bright flash of light. The electrical laser approached The Overlord in the speed of light and obliterated the forest behind it, leaving nothing but ashes. Jane estimated that its range was over five miles...and The Overlord's body was nowhere to be seen.
Everyone shouted in joy; they had managed to beat it, the one who resembled The Overlord. No…it really was The Overlord; it lived up to its name.
The group hugged each other, happy that they had finally beat the monster.
"We beat it! We finally beat it!" Ezekiel exclaimed with a joyous smile.
"Yeah…it was really insane. I will carry Nero's body. I will catch up to you all later." Merag sighed, still sad from the loss of one of their teammates.
Of course, their win was not really a true victory; they had lost someone important in this fight...and it was because of his weapon that they were able to beat it.
'Hope your soul rests in peace, my friend Nero,' Jane thought.
"I will help you, brother." The albino offered, trying to give a hand, but Merag declined, saying that he could do it himself...though the other still insisted.
He left to help his brother while Jane took a rest by a tree, closing her eyes for a bit.
'I'm so tired. All of that fighting wore me out. I hope we don't experience this kind of tragedy ever again...'
But then Jane heard a low growl and gasped...the abomination was still there.
-II—II-
"The humans in here are quite capable to defend themselves. Maybe this is enough," the lizard mused. "That railgun is also quite dangerous. I've been hit many times and almost died. But due to my regeneration, I am still here...and now that my Adaptation skill has kicked in, now I'm able to replicate the energy that that railgun had unleashed."
But first, he had to take care of the female, since she was the most aggressive one. By using his speed, he approached her at a hypersonic speed, grabbing her head while she was still half-asleep.
She wriggled in panic and screamed for help, and her friends responded and prepared their weapons...but it was too late. SCP-682 activated the railgun's power that he had absorbed and electrocuted her from his hand.
She was screaming in pain; her friends tried to help her, but it was futile. SCP-682's body produced sharp spikes from its back and created a barrier of lightning. Her friends could do nothing but watch their friend being reduced to dust.
And just like that she was gone, due to the intense and burning power, leaving nothing but the ashes of her remaining body.
The female human was dead.
"This…this is impossible. The Grimm's not dead?! Is it immortal?! What happened here?!" The boy grabbed his head out of frustration. And at that time, his brother grabbed his shoulder.
"You must live," he replied with a stern face.
'What? Of course I want to live. I WANT all of us to live, but this is too much! We lost TWO of our teammates. There is no hope; the Grimm is too strong. And even if we run, he can still catch up to us.'
"Mother asked me to follow you because she was concerned about you. Well…I am, too. But our mother will be happier if she sees you for the last time. Now, go. Don't tell mother about my condition...just run. I will hold him back so you can escape." The brother then readied his pike with his semblance activated.
"NO! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? WE WILL GO TOGETHER. WE WERE BROTHERS. WE GROW UP TOGETHER, WE FALL TOGETHER. I WON'T LET MYSELF BECOME A BURDEN!" Ezekiel shouted at him, but all he recieved was a kick to the face.
"DON'T YOU DARE! IF WE BOTH DIE, WHO'S GONNA PROTECT MOTHER? I'M MORE CAPABLE IN HOLDING IT, SO GO BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!" Metal growled with an angry face.
But strangely, the Grimm just stood there, observing their conversation...it was weird. Why did it not attack them?
But that bewilderment was quickly abolished as it then roared like a mighty lion and approached them at an incredible speed. Merag intercepted it with his pike.
"RUN!" Merag screamed at the top of hislungs. Instinctivally, Ezekiel ran away from the battle, cursing and shaming himself.
'CURSED! I can't do anything again. Why am I so useless?'
He cursed himself over and over again while running, his scroll still recording from his pocket (it had to record everything). He brought it out and created a vlog.
"I'm useless…very useless. I'm just a burden to my team. Now listen, Prof. Ozpin. This Grimm we called The Overlord managed to kill every one of us. I want you to beware, because this is not your everyday Grimm. The Grimm managed to survive from Nero's railgun at full power, and it can obliterate half of your school in one blow. It is much faster than Alpha Beowulf and me. Never encounter and fight it with less people than ten proffesional huntman...maybe you'll need even more than that! I entrust the future of humanity with this information. I hope future huntsman don't end up like us."
He sent the record to the beacon communication center, hoping that he can help future generations about the new dangerous Grimm
-II-II-
SCP-682 lost track of the last human...but it was no matter. There was enough, anyway. The last one he killed was impaled by his own weapon...but it was weird.
What was SCP-3000 doing? She said herself that she would stop him from killing humans...but was that so? She then cut off her own connection...which was why she wasn't aware of what had happened to him.
But SCP-682 could still feel the connection again. She was here...and she was looking at her surroundings.
He felt that she was also VERY furious.
"…tell me...WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Her wrath shook the land and probably the entire planet. He was shocked; she could affect this place, even though she was in a different dimension?
Well, he knew that she could connect with him, and her transcendence to different dimensions proved that she had dimensional manipulation...and she was really ticked off now.
Not that her rage ever affected SCP-682 in the slightest. "Let's see what you're going to do...so called will of the planet?"
End
Done. I fell bad for creating tragedy story, but this is SCP-682 we talked about. He can't feel pity. Now let's go to the review answer section.
Guest: About silver eyes. Well that's a secret *wink* but if I want to hint it, then….Grimm Dragon *wink* if you get it that is. And yes he is physically impossible to be killed. But still can be contained like Foundation does to him.
Strong-Bot: Thank you. hope you like this one too
Guest (You knowwho you are): You really like total destruction are you? Don't worry, that was close to my original plans.
