"Blake!" Aodh heard a familiar voice shouted out. He turned around to find Yang "Get away from her!" Aodh couldn't see who Yang was looking at but she suddenly her body began shrouded in flames as she charged into the Dinning hall.
"Yang Wait!" Aodh shouted out as he rushed towards the window she jumped through. But he stopped in horror from what he seen next.
He could clear she Yang lying limp face down on the ground. The lower half of her right arm separated from the rest of her body. And standing over her was Adam Taurus.
He soon became overwhelmed with rage as he slowly began to weep a small line of blood from his eyes. "YANG!"
Volume 3: Chapter 11: The Battle of Beacon Part 2
(Pyrrha, Jaune and Professor Ozpin)
Inside of the Beacon vault the elevator doors opened as Professor Ozpin, Jaune, and Pyrrha walked out. The three of them immediately started to sprint down the vault's long corridor.
"What is this place?" Jaune asked confused as to where he actually was.
"It's... A type of vault." Pyrrha reluctantly answered.
"You've... Been here before?" Shocked that Pyrrha answered she didn't respond back to his question. "What would this school need to... Hide?"
Coming to the end of the corridor Jaune seen a weird machine and stopped in his tracks. Gazing wide-eyed at the strange he seen that there was a girl inside. "What? Who... Who is that?"
"Jaune..." Pyrrha tired to respond but Professor Ozpin broke her speech.
"Pyrrha! Get to the pod!" Pyrrha nodded as she ran into the second pod.
"Mr Arc, if you'd like to help I would need you to stand guard here." Professor Ozpin turned towards Jaune. Still with no answers Jaune had no other option but to follow the orders given to him as he turned around and got into a defensive stance.
"What do we do now?" Pyrrha asked as she stared at the second pod.
"We, do nothing." Professor Ozpin stated as he pushed several button on the control panel opening the second pod. As the pod opened he turned to Pyrrha. "You, Miss Nikos... Have a choice to make."
Pyrrha hesitating looks at the pod. She turns to then look at Jaune. Her emotions started to hold her back as they changed from hesitation to sadness. But know this was the only choice they had to save Beacon she wipes a tear from her eye and enters the second Pod.
"Are you ready?" Professor Ozpin asked Pyrrha whop gave him a slow nod in response. "I... I need to hear you say it."
Breathing slowly Pyrrha softly responded. "Yes."
"Thank you, Miss Nikos."
(Aodh vs Adam)
Adam slowly walks toward the unconscious body of Yang. As he done so he swings his sword out to the side, casting blood from his blade. He raised his sword about to deliver the killing blow but Blake threw herself over the top of Yang's body.
"Why must you hurt me, Blake?" Adam asked but his only response was a determined stare from Blake.
Sighing in annoyance Adam swings his blade at Blake but before he could kill her his blade clashed with another. One that belonged to Aodh Branwen. "Aodh... I see you wish to join in on the White Fang's moment of triumph."
Aodh didn't respond back with words but instead kicked Adam backwards. He then turned to see Blake. "Take Yang and get out of here." Aodh ordered leaving to room for any other questions.
Blake seen her teammates older cousin in front of her and he wasn't the same man. His gaze was cold and hard but she could see his was crying blood from his eyes. "I SAID NOW BLAKE!" Aodh's roar snapped Blake out her gaze as he picked up Yang as slowly left the cafeteria.
"Where do you think you're going traitor!" Adam lunged towards Blake but found Aodh had got in his way once more.
"This is between you and me bastard!" Aodh grunted out to Adam as he punched the bull faunus' face. "I've always tried to think you were still in there. The friend I had during Beacon. But now..."
Aodh was cut short as Adam's Wilt swung towards him but he blocked it with Solas. "I'm still the same person Aodh. I just needed a wake up call from reality."
They continue'd to lock their sword together and Aodh spoke. "Do you remember our Huntsmen Creed. The one we promised we would follow for the rest of our lives in our first year?"
"That stupid thing. Who cares it meant nothing then and it means nothing now." Adam coldly responded as he kicked Aodh into the cafeteria's walls.
"In the dark of night I will be the light others will follow... I will guide the lost and defend the innocent... My Sword will strike down those who seek to harm others... My Body will be the shield to defend the weak... I do this for I... Am a Huntsman!" Aodh shouted out towards Adam as he picked himself back to his feet.
"A nice speech but that's all it is... A speech. This world is not what you think it is. It's full of pain and suffering and my brothers and sister have suffered through it for too long. I will not let anyone stand in my way any more!" Adam fired a round of fire dust from Blush at Aodh.
Aodh dodged the attack by rolling out of the way. "You think I'm naive to think that this world isn't dark. I know it is. I've lost my mother, I've lost my right leg and my tail... All taken away by you no less. But as I've lost parts of me I have also had the strength to keep moving forward... Unlike you... So I will put an end to your suffering... Tonight." Aodh crimson red eyes stared down at Adam.
"You won't be able to even touch me... Human." Adam growled out.
Aodh then charged directly towards Adam. Smirking Adam brought Wilt down vertically. Aodh however did something Adam didn't expect. He didn't try to counter. Adam couldn't believe his luck as this would surely kill Aodh.
But in a red flash Aodh disappeared. "What the?" Adam shouted but stopped when he felt pain from his back. Turning his head slightly he seen Aodh slashed his exposed back with Solas and Scath.
Turning his body while in mid air Aodh drop kicked Adam's back sending him crashing into the walls head first. "So much for not touching you. But you've always been a bit hard headed... Get it? Cause you're a bull faunus." Aodh then began to start laughing at his own joke as Adam got back to his feet.
"Are you mocking me!?" Adam shouted out in anger.
Aodh's laughter stopped as he coldly stared at Adam. "Yes... And I'm going to make you suffer. I'm not giving you a quick death... You don't deserve that." Before Adam could raise Wilt and Blush Aodh appeared in front of him as grabbed both of his wrists.
Adam struggled to break free him Aodh's grip. Aodh however smashed head first into Adam's face smashing his mask. Adam then seen Aodh take a deep breath in. Adam's clear green eyes became wide as he knew what would happen next.
"BURN!" Aodh roared out as a large vortex of flames fired from the tailless faunus' mouth covering the upper half of Adam's body.
Aodh could hear Adam's screaming in pain as the flames drained his aura to nothing. But before Aodh could burn Adam to a crisp the White Fang's Lieutenant arrived and attacked Aodh knocking him away from Adam. "Master Taurus are you alright?" The Lieutenant asked.
Adam was in a terrible mess. His long black trench coat along with red undershirt had been burnt away leaving third degree burn marks over his chest. Aodh was admiring his handy work as he sheathed both Solas and Scath and drew out his Gladius for the final blow. However Winter's voice spoke out causing him to stop in his tracks. "Aodh?"
"Aodh where are you?" Winter asked out loud hoping Aodh could hear her. The Lieutenant also recognised the voice and rushed towards it hoping to catch the Schnee off guard and hopefully kill her in the process.
"I don't think so!" Aodh coldly spoke and he cut the Lieutenant's head from his shoulders. The other members of the White Fang watching were stunned at the quick death. "You're next Adam."
With the help of another member White Fang member Adam smirked. "I doubt that." Suddenly Adam gripped Wilt as his hair began to glow red as he looked in the direction of where Winter's voice was coming from.
Using his semblance Adam unleashed an arc of energy towards Winter. Aodh with Solas and Scath in hand threw himself and tired to block the attack however both blades began to crack under the pressure. Using his aura to strengthen the blades the attack dispersed but sadly along with the majority of Solas and Scath.
Taking in a few deep breaths Aodh turned around to see that Adam was gone. Along with the rest of the White Fang. With the adrenaline rush over the damage his body took from breathing out fire took effect as he violently begun coughing. His coughing alerted Winter that he was nearby.
"Aodh! Are you okay? Tell me." Winter asked.
Aodh reasured her by placing his hand on her shoulder and kissing her forehead. "I'm fine, thank you." Aodh then picked himself up and slowly he walked over towards Yang's severed arm. He picked up her arm and twisting her weapon he disconnected Ember Celica from the severed limb.
"We need to get out of here. I have a feeling more Grimm are going to be here soon."
(Pyrrha, Jaune and Professor Ozpin)
The two pods with Pyrrha and Amber both raised up into the air as Professor Ozpin pressed several buttons on a console's panel. After a few moments Amber began to glow orange as her eyes slowly began to open. The orange glow travels along a pipe that was connecting the two pods. The orange glow then begins to surround Pyrrha as she began to scream out in agony.
"Pyrrha!" Upon hearing her screams Jaune turned around and called out her name in worry.
Jaune runs over to Pyrrha's pod, moving his gaze back and forth between Pyrrha and Amber's pod. While Jaune panics, trying to understand what's going on, Ozpin looks away. "I'm... So sorry Amber."
Suddenly an arrow pierces the glass of Amber's pod hitting her heart. The sudden jolt of Pains causes her to open her eyes fully and gasp out only to die moments later. e chest. Professor Ozpin and Jaune turn around to see a smirking Cinder Fall standing halfway down the corridor from them with a bow in her hand.
Pyrrha panicked as she began to frantically beat the glass of her pod with her fists. The orange glow then started to leave Pyrrha as it travelled back through the pipes into Amber. The glow then bursts out of Amber shattering the glass of her pod as it covers and enters Cinder.
Cinder's body then began to glow as she floated into the air. Jaune looked at Pyrrha's pod and seen her still beating on the glass even harder but it wasn't moving. Thinking he would have to buy her time to escape he raised his sword and charges toward Cinder.
"Stay back!" Professor Ozpin shouted out as Cinder threw a large fireball at Jaune. The blonde Huntsman managed to block it with his shield but the force blasted him backwards.
"JAUNE!" Pyrrha shouted out as she watched her friend land hard on his back.
Finally Pyrrha used her Semblance to rip the pod's door off its hinges. In doing so it was thrown at Cinder who simply knocked it away. Slowly Cinder began to descend to the floor. Pyrrha called her weapon and shield to her with her Semblance and was about to charge at Cinder however Professor Ozpin puts his arm out, stopping her.
"Take Jaune and get out of here! Find Glynda! Ironwood! Qrow! Aodh! Winter! Bring them here right away! The tower cannot fall!" Professor Ozpin ordered Pyrrha.
"But I can help."
"You'll only get in the way."
Pyrrha hesitated for a moment but knew it was best to follow Professor Ozpin's orders. Pyrrha then picked up Jaune and started to run away. As Cinder lands on the ground she watches them leave before turning her attention towards the headmaster of Beacon.
And Cut!
Well another Chapter up and posted hope you all enjoyed it. Had to think over a few things with the Aodh v Adam fight but i'm happy enough with how it ended. Hopefully people can stop complaining how he always loses. But I'm sorry if you wanted to read a story with an OP character this aint it. Anyway let's get going with this chapter's Q&A!
1) With what happened to Roman what do you think about Aodh taking in Neo for a little while? No i'm sorry but that won't be my plan for the moment i'm afraid.
2) Can you make that Pyrrha survives and that Aodh loses his memories after the fight against Adam? Not gonna be giving spoilers out for who dies and who doesn't but Aodh won't be losing his memories for Volume 4. Something else will be happening instead.
3) What's you favourite moment of Volume 5 so far? Easy episode 4 when Yang and Weiss meet up and Weiss hugs Yang afterwards. The feels got to me at that moment. Can't wait until they all meet back up again.
So that's all for this chapter folks. If you have a question do feel free to post a review or PM myself. If I don't answer your question on next chapter's Q&A I will try to reply via PM. Thank you for reading this chapter. I hope you've all enjoyed it. Till next time
