YAY IM back. No excuses. thanks for staying. shitty grammar whatever, go enjoy..
Weiss sighed as she stared out of her room at the baril mansion. Melancholy covering her face as she watched the snow fall outside. Weiss briefly looked back at the beautiful wedding dress that was draped over the chair. She grit her teeth before turning back towards the window. She had almost managed to lose herself in thought yet again, when a soft knocking at her door resonated through the room.
"Yes." Weiss stated, clearly wanting nothing to do with the person on the other side of the door, no matter who it was. She heard the door creak open slowly, and turned to see one of the mansion's maids standing there, nervously.
"Ms. Schnee." She said meekly.
"What?" Weiss answered, her feelings spilling over in her voice.
"It's almost time. We should probably start getting you dressed." The maid suggested. Weiss looked down at the floor, forcing herself to cry, before looking up at the maid.
"Yes, let's." Weiss agreed as she walked across the room. "You're running out of time Zade" She thought, as she gently stroked the dress, knowing it foreshadowed her impending fate.
"Fuck. fuck. Fuck. fuck. Fuck. fuck. Fuck." Zade grumbled as he army crawled through nearly a foot of snow. His lips, nose, and fingers had gone numb so long ago, he could barely remember. Nevertheless, he trudged on, desperate and determined to reach the mansion gates without being detected. Behind him, Oscar and his little ragtag group were equally as miserable.
"Where the hell is this damn house?" One of the girls towards the back complained.
"It shouldn't be too far from here, just calm down, you'll be fine. Now be quiet" Oscar answered, wanting to maintain the group's element of surprise. Another 30 minutes passed, and Zade finally felt his hand touch metal bars.
'We're here." He declared, and the rest of the group gathered around him. "Alright. Oscar, you and your friends take the east end of the mansion. Get there quietly before giving them hell. I'm going to try and sneak in the west end. It'll give me the most clear and unobstructed path to Weiss, especially if you have all the guards distracted. Once I have Wiess, I'll send you a message and you'll all pull back alright?" Zade finished explaining, when his friend's response was overshadowed by the cocking of multiple rifles. Zade and his group looked up to see that they were surrounded by personal guards for the Schnee and Baril families, and that they all had dust rifles aimed right at them.
"So… no plan?" Oscar asked, hoping Zade had some trick to turn the tables. Zade shrugged.
"No plan. Just clusterfuck." Zade decided. Oscar stared at him for a moment before grinning evilly.
"HEY! Let's go!" One of the guards yelled at the group.
"We already went. You're just too slow." Zade answered pointing at the guard. The guard looked around puzzled, when much to his surprise, a wave of blood came splashing out of his chest and mouth. The other guard were taken aback in fear as they watch their comrade crumple to the ground. As they turned back to their targets, they became painfully aware of a lack of Zade's presence, and began firing.
"Here we go!" Oscar yelled, as he and his group suddenly sprung into action.
Zade reappeared about halfway across the Baril mansion front yard, sprinting. He lowered his head and charged forward, confident that Oscar and company could handle themselves.
"I just hope I can handle myself" Zade thought to himself as the sound of an alarm began resonating from the mansion. Zade grit his teeth and pressed on as he watched some guards mount a large machine gun to the top of the mansion. His eyes darted all over the courtyard, looking for somewhere to teleport and take cover, when a rocket streaked past him and hit the guards head on, destroying their turret. Zade briefly glanced back to see Oscar standing on one of the fence's pillars, with his rocket launcher mounted firmly on his shoulder. Zade chuckled to himself as he looked forward and kept running.
Weiss was being escorted through the mansion, by the maid and a few guards, when the sound of gunfire began to sound from outside. Weiss quickly strode over to the nearest window, looking for any indication that Zade might have been the disturbance. Unfortunately, despite how hard she looked, nothing caught her eye.
"Please. Don't make this harder than it needs to be. Let's get you to the chapel." The maid said. Weiss took a quick look at her snow white wedding gown before nodding and following the maiden.
Jacques and sat in the front row of the mansions chapel, both very pleased with themselves. They looked on proudly as Leo stood by the altar, dressed in a simple yet elegant tuxedo, awaiting his bride. Jacques's good mood was ruined abruptly when his scroll began vibrating in his pocket.
"WHAT!" He demanded, not wanting any more disruptions. The voice on the phone talked for a moment, in which time Jacques grew red with rage. "Send Elric. Tell him no one enters the chapel." He instructed before hanging up. looked over at Jacques with a light hearted smile.
"Don't you think that's a bit much?" He asked.
'Not anymore." Jacques replied, causing to laugh. The two men sat in their seats, certain that their plan was foolproof.
Weiss descended the stairs into the main living room of the Baril mansions. She looked at the ornate decorations of her probable new home, and reacted with disgust.
"This way to the chapel." The maid directed. Weiss was just about to turn and walk through the doorway, when the sound of shattering glass caught her attention. Weiss twirled around to see Zade come flying through the window. Zade hit the ground ungracefully, but rolled back to his feet.
"That shit's harder than it looks." Zade grumbled to himself, wiping the glass off of his clothes.
"ZADE!" Weiss cried out, tears quickly forming in her eyes. Zade looked over and his eyes widened immediately.
"WEISS!" Zade responded, as he started making a beeline for her. His Attention was so focused on his girl that he didn't notice the guard, rearing back his warhammer and slamming Zade upside the jaw. Zade's body jerked back and hit the floor. Zade instinctively rolled over, and bounced up into a combat stance. Weiss took a few steps forward until the maid reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her back.
" we must go NOW!" The handmaid demanded, dragging Weiss deeper into the mansion, leaving Zade to deal with the other thugs.
"Stop stop STOP!" Weiss demanded, finally pulling her arm free from the handmaid's vice hand.
"The chapel is right there." The maid sighed, her face finally beginning to contort with frustration.
"I don't want to marry him. I wa...need to go see if Zade is ok." Weiss continued to handmaid stared at Weiss momentarily before sighing in inevitable defeat.
"Is there absolutely no way I can talk you into the simpler of the two options?" the handmaid asked. Weiss shook her head with unstoppable determination.
"I can't. I refuse to give in to my father's demand of my own free will. If he wants me to marry that man, he will have to force me to stand on the altar himself." Weiss professed, standing tall, graceful, and elegant in her dress. The handmaid smiled and quietly slipped Weiss a key.
"Go to the left, take the stairs down, and you'll find the room where your weapons and gear are stashed. Then you can make your way to one of the exit tunnels that stretch out from the basement." The maid whispered in Weiss's ear. Weiss nodded with renewed hope until the sound of footsteps clanking against the marble floor approached them.
"Tsk tsk tsk" an ominous voice echoed through the halls. The two girls gasped and turned as a Tall muscular man approached them.
"E-Elric…" Weiss stuttered as the man approached.
"Such a pity Weiss. Even to the last you are weak in your resolve to stick to your familial duties." Elric scolded, taking Weiss key and calmly, yet forcefully dragging Weiss and the handmaid to the chapel door. "They are awaiting their bride." He chuckled as he pushed the two through the door. Elric closed the door and turned around, looking into the halls of the house. "Bring me your pain Zade. Bring me your strength."
Zade brushed the dirt off him as he stood above the guard whom he had just knocked out. Zade briefly glanced at the other guard who was nursing a missing hand. Zade stretched his neck and took off into the depth of the house.
"Gotta find the chapel, gotta find the chapel." Zade chanted to himself as he raced through the house, tuning out the sounds of combat from the outside. Zade made a left turn and found himself facing two huge ornate doors. Standing between them was none other than Elric. Zade stopped dead in his tracks as Elric pushed off from the wall and looked directly at Zade.
"Who are you?" Zade asked, already in a defensive combat stance.
"I am Elric. I am the head bodyguard for . I have been given the directive of keeping you out of the chapel at all times. Killing you if necessary." He answered. Zade rolled his eyes.
"Why work for such scum?" Zade felt compelled to ask.
"Because. His company is giving me a dust serum to secure the… unfavorable parts of me." Elric answered.
"Close enough" Zade shrugged, scanning his enemy for any early signs of weaknesses.
"Are you prepared to do battle?" Elric asked, Zade answered. Elric drew his two hand axes and spun them around before charging. Zade lashed out with crescent blades, knocking away the axes. Zade stepped in and brought his leg up, hitting Elric's ribs. Elric's face grimaced, as Zade teleported behind him and jammed his blade into Elric's kidney. Elric strained his aura to prevent any damage and kicked back. Zade felt his knee nearly bend backwards and fell to it. Elric spun around, aiming directly for Zade's face with his axe. Zade swiftly ducked under axe and jumped up and used his blade to punch Elric in the face.
"Shit!" Elric exclaimed as blood squirted out of his nose. Zade turned away and stepped back, Elric's blood splattered on his cheek. Zade and Elric both stepped back. Zade glared, while Elric smirked. The faint smell of electricity filled the room as Lightning suddenly erupted against Zade's face. Zade staggered to the side slightly.
"The hell was that!" Zade exclaimed, staring incredulously at Elric.
"Blood of fire and lightning. My semblance will overcome you." Elric explained. Zade sighed, shaking his head.
"This is gonna be a giant hassle isn't it." Zade muttered to himself as he gripped his blades tightly. Elric took the first move however, aiming his axes forward, and firing with the shotguns built in the hilt. Zade rolled his eyes, and began teleporting to dodge the bullets and close the gap between him and Elric. Elric brought his hands in as Zade relentless started punching at his ribs. Elric kicked out, pushing Zade away, before skipping forward and swinging his axe's Zade ducked in and out, each swing of the axe passing closer by face than he would have liked. Zade spun on the ball of his foot and kicked up, nailing Elric's landed and slashed directly across his chest. Elirc chuckled as blood splashed out from the open wound. Zade groaned as the blood started glowing a violent red. Before Zade could even react, he was thrown back by the force of the explosion. Zade rolled across the floor, before managing to regain his footing. Zade looked up to see Elric swinging his large executioner's axe directly at his face. Zade reached out and caught the blade straight with his hand. Zade could feel the blood drip down his hand as he and Elric kept pushing against each other. Zade shifted his weight and pushed Elric's blade off to the side, causing him to swing wide. Zade reared back and slashed hard across his face. Zade quickly rolled to the side, knowing not to be in the range of his blood again. As Zade and Elric stood off again Zade could see that the bleeding on Elric's face had already stopped.
"You heal too?" Zade asked. Elric nodded, turning his cheek so that Zade could watch the fire dust in his blood seal the wound.
"I do." Elric answered.
"Fuck." Zade said, even more frustrated. Zade shook his head and once again ran forward. Elric stepped back, swinging his massive axe around, and blocking each of Zade's strikes. Zade tried to take advantage of the moment and teleported behind Elric, leaving behind lightning feathers. However, as Zade reappeared behind Elric, he spun around and hit Zade in the ribs just below his shoulder. Simultaneously, The feather erupted, causing Elric to groan in pain as the lightning coursed over his body. Zade and Elric glared at each other, breathing heavily. Elric made the first move, wishing to decapitate Zade with his axe. Zade, luckily, was quick enough to teleport just to the left of Elric's attack and slip inside his block. Zade littered Elric's chest and sides with blows from his compacted scythes. Despite Elric's best efforts, Zade's sheer size prevented him from bringing his hand in to block. With each consecutive attack. Elric felt the skin on his body being shredded and his blood splashing about. Elric desperately used his semblance to coat Zade's body in electricity and fire. Amidst all the pain, Zade grit his teeth and stood firm, continuing to slash and hack, his blade cleanly splitting Elric's skin before it managed to heal itself. With a swift motion, Zade reached up and wrapped his arms around Elric's neck. Elric cried out as Zade yanked his head down, smashing his knee into Elric's nose. Elric stepped back, holding his nose up until the bleeding stopped. Zade took the opportunity to quickly glance over the damage he had done. Zade shook his head, realizing that slowly all of the damage that remained was mostly to his clothes. Upon close inspection however, Zade noticed a small tube full of a blue liquid taped to and running along his body. Zade smirked, already planning to destroy it. Elric noticed Zade's concentration and followed his line of sight to the tube on his body. Elric's eyes widened in realization and took up a more defensive stance, taking great care to cover it. Zade smirked, amused at Elric's obvious give away. Zade teleported right in front of Elric, lashing out for the tube, hoping for a quick end to the fight. In his overzealous assault, Zade was careless. Allowing Elric to dodge, and plant a blow across Zade's cheek. Zade seethed as the sting exploded across his face. Allowing little room for error, Elric took the opportunity to knee Zade's sternum hard… twice. He yanked Zade's hair, tossing him to the ground. Zade attempted to roll with the momentum and get back to his feet, but Elric was to fast, kicking Zade across his face. Desperately Zade teleported behind Elric, hoping that would open him up. However, the only thing Zade saw when his reappeared, was Elric's massive executioner axe colliding with his face. Zade raised his hands to brace himself as he felt himself crash through multiple walls before landing in one of the mansions many guest rooms. Zade managed to regain his stance just in time to feel Elric's blade pass mere millimeters from his face. Zade clenched his fist briefly, realizing he had lost his weapons when he has been sent flying. Without any hesitation, Zade punched Elric's side, before turning around, grabbing a lamp off the nearby nightstand, and clocking Elric's head with it. Zade took the opportunity to jump through the walls and retrieve his weapons before Elric could head, or use his semblance. Zade heard Elric roar and chase after him, until they were once again standing before the chapel door.
"Your efforts are futile. Why do you continue to resist?" Elric asked, panting heavily. Zade took a few deep breaths before responding.
"Because I've got nothing else to lose. Why do you work for Mr. Asshole?" Zade countered. Elric rolled his eyes.
"Hilarious. I work for because he provides me with my medication. It… keep me restrained." Elric admitted. Zade nodded.
"So that's what that blue liquid is." Zade said, feigning realization. Elric grit his teeth and started walking towards Zade.
"And that is why I need to put you down now." Elric declared. Zade smirked and shook his head lightly.
"Boy do I have news for you. You really need to maybe assume your opponent has a trump card before letting your guard down." Zade said. Elric squinted, Absolutely confused by Zade's statement.
"The hell are you talking about?!" He demanded.
"You'll see what really happens when you fight me in 3...2...1…" Zade counted down. Upon finishing, Elric fell to his knees. Wound opened up on the back of his knees, severing the tendon, blood rushed out of stumps where both of his hands were cut of, and blood rushed from his mouth and neck where his jugular was slashed. Elric's body fell limp to the ground. She shivered as cold washed over him and he felt his life disappearing.
"I'm sorry . I've failed you." He muttered, his eyes slowly starting to close. Just before his eyes closed, he saw the blue medicine leaking along the floor, cut from his body. "But it seems this rogue has sealed his own fate." Zade watched as Elric's body finally stopped moving entirely. Zade sighed heavily and turned towards the chapel door. Zade had only enough time to walk a few steps when a dark laughter erupted from behind him. His face went completely deadpan, as he turned around to face what he knew would be another pain in his ass.
"What now!" Zade demanded frustrated. Yet, all his years of experience couldn't prepare him for what was next. Elric's body was consumed in a black fire. The fire tore at his flesh and melted his bones until the entire concoction erupted into a massive plume of ashes. Zade watched in awe as the plume began condensing itself into a nine foot tall black demon. Six large spikes emanated from its back and its eyes glowed with the undeniable red of fire and lightning dripped from its mouth.
"The fuck… are you?" Zade asked. The beast just chuckled.
"I am ashes." It responded in a voice significantly deeper than Elric's, "I am Elric's… better half. I'm here to reap vengeance upon you, and quench my lust for combat and blood. Two birds with one stone. Prepare to feel pain like never before." Ashes threatened. Zade rolled his eyes.
"Ah dammit. This shit again." Zade whined, causing ashed to tilt his head inquisitively.
"Again? What do you mean again?" Ashes asked, seeming insulted.
"You're not the first super power demonic alternate personality I've faced man, and quite frankly. I don't think you hold a candle to the last one." Zade explained.
"Oh I'm sure I do. Cause I'm different, better even." Ashes stated, chuckling.
"How so?" Zade asked, thinking any information on the enemy could be helpful.
"Because I am immortal!" Ashes yelled triumphantly. His celebratory laugh was cut short when he too felt the cool steel of Zade's blade run through his throat. Zade teleported away, assuming that Ashes and Elric had the same semblance. Zade watched liquid magma run down Ashes's body before his reached up and set his own head back in place. Zade groaned. Ashes simply placed a claw on his palm and dragged it across, ripping open the skin. Ashes showed Zade his bleeding palm. Zade watched cautiously as the magma blood turned black, then began glowing with a dark light. At the last second Zade managed to realize what was happening and teleported in place to use ice feather to create a shield of sorts. Just as he finished a torrent of black fire slammed into the shield, straining it immediately. Zade hunkered down behind the ice. He looked around hoping for an indication as to when the onslaught would end. All he managed to see was his ice shield, rapidly melting. Zade gritted his teeth and teleported behind Ashes, outside the storm of fire. Zade stepped forward and jammed both of his scythes up into Ashes's kidneys. Ashes laughed as Zade lifted him off the ground and thrust him overhead, causing Ashes's to smash his head and neck into the floor. Ashes peeled himself of the blades and quickly healed his back. He stood up, revealing that his neck was obviously broken. Zade stared as Ashes reached up and slowly, with a series of sickening cracks, snapped his neck and vertebrae back into place. Immediately, Ashes raced forward, sucker punching Zade's gut. He felt the air leave his lungs as Ashes reared back and landed a hammerfist on Zade's head. The force was great enough that Zade bounced of the marble floor and a few inches into the air. Ashes placed his foot under Zade, lifted him up in the air, and engulfed him in another wave of searing blackfire. Zade screamed in agony as he thrust his aura out as much as possible. Despite his best efforts, Zade could still feel the fire scorching his clothes and burning into his skin. Zade grit his teeth and mustered the concentration to teleport out of the swath of fire. Ashes turned around with a sickening grin. That grin was soon replaced with a scowl as Zade plunged a scythe directly into the front of Ashes head. With no hesitation, Zade took his remaining scythe and teleported back and forth, slicing limbs and flesh from his enemy. Zade's rage only grew as Ashes managed to heal before Zade could land a second strike. Zade finally stopped teleporting, too tired to continued.
"Now do you see. You are but a mere mortal. I have Transcendent power!" Ashes proclaimed, stalking towards Zade with a murderous gleam in his eye. Zade tried as hard as he could to move, but just his body resisted every twitch. As Ashes approached, Zade could feel the heat pulsing off him in waves. Zade stood helpless, sweating as this behemoth of fire and lightning descended on him. Ashes reached out slowly, ecstasy clear as day on his face. Zade did his best to remain his composure as Ashes grabbed on to Zade's face tightly. Both warriors stood perfectly still for just a moment, until Ashes unleashed a torrent of electricity through Zade's body. Zade felt his whole body tense and he fell to his knees, but he did not once make a sound like he was in pain.
"Scream, scream you worthless mortal!" Ashes demanded, pulsing more lightning through Zade's body. Zade convulsed, as blood trickled out of his mouth, but he still refused to say anything. Ashes, thoroughly frustrated, ceased the electricity. Ashes drew his hand back, forming another inferno of Black fire.
"Become ashes." He whispered before lunging forward with his finishing blow. Zade would've closed his eyes, or for a matter of fact been scared, if he couldn't feel the fast approaching aura of the last person he wanted to see. Zade watched helplessly as Qrow slid in front of him and placed his sword protectively. Qrow grunted as Ashes made impact with his blade, causing a resounding shockwave. Qrow pushed back as Zade staggered to his feet.
"You think you could get rid of me that easily? Family is family." Qrow stared, through grit teeth.
"What took you so long. Banging another barskank?" Zade responded,smirking.
"Har dee har har. Just be glad I'm here punk." Qrow shot back.
"I had it under control!" Zade exclaimed.
"The hell you did." Qrow scoffed.
"ENOUGH!" Ashes yelled, slamming into Qrow's blade again, with better results. Qrow flew back and slammed his feet into the ground, skidding to a stop. Qrow twirled his blade and grinned.
"Watch your old man in action." He said, as he raced forward at Ashes. Zade rolled his eyes and out of the way, as Qrow passed him. Ashes chuckled darkly and grabbed his executioners axe and stepped forward. Qrow ducked under a threatening slash from Ashes and quickly countered with a slice, cutting from Ashes hip to his shoulder. Qrow smirked proudly, until Ashes wounds started healing.
"The hell is this?" Qrow demanded before being knocked backward by one of Ashes's heavy blows. Qrow slammed on the ground and rolled back into a combat stance. Ashes tossed his axe into the air and grabbed it near the bottom, like a baseball bat. Qrow flipped his sword into its scythe configuration and beckoned Ashes to attack. Ashes skipped forward and tried to decapitate Qrow cleanly. Qrow mockingly took the opportunity to lean backwards, watching the blade pass over his face. Qrow skipped forward and twirled his scythe, leaving three large slashes across Ashes's body. Qrow groaned as he saw Ashes blood splash out towards him. Qrow disgust turned to concern as the blood glowed black before exploding before him. As qrow jumped back and emerged from the flames, he could hear Zade laughing.
"What's so funny?!" He demanded.
"Same shit happened to me." Zade laughed in response. Qrow rolled his eyes and turned back towards Ashes, only to feel Ashes's fist, connect with the side of his face. Qrow staggered back, obviously stunned. Ashes stepped forward and kneed Qrow's nose, breaking it. Ashes sucker punched Qrow's gut, who groaned as he felt some of his ribs snap. Qrow stepped back, coughed up some blood, and fell over.
"The father and son will burn in hell together then." Ashes decided, pooling a massive load of black fire into his hands.
"You suck dad." Zade stated, flipping Qrow the bird.
"I fought like… 100 people getting here. How's it my fault I'm a little weak right now." Qrow retorted.
'Bullshit." Zade coughed.
"Zade. I know I'm a shitty dad. I'd rather do better, but I need to do one more shitty dad thing." Qrow said, sorrow in his voice.
"What?" Zade asked curiously.
"I fucked your mom." At that moment Ashes thrust his hands forward, expecting black fire to consume his enemies to the bone. Instead, his eyes widened in amazement. Zade stood before him, pushing back the black fire as a even more sinister blue fire burnt around the flesh on Zade's arms and legs. With a mighty push, Zade sent Ashes sliding backwards across the marble floor.
"Only one person is going to get to kill Qrow. That person is me." Zade declared, drawing one his scythes and pointing it at Ashes. Ashes grit his teeth, contemplating his next move.
"Your new power is formidable, yet it is no match for my immortality." Ashes taunted. Zade chuckled the most condescending chuckle he could manage.
"Your about as far from immortal as the rest of us. Though if you wish to continue this little slap fight, I'll show just a taste of the power of something truly immortal. Something so longstanding that the world has never lived without it. Something so horrific and terrifying, even I who stands before you valiantly quivered with fear. I will show you an inkling of death." Zade explained, the fires burning around him growing more violent. Ashes chuckled.
"You think some fancy blue flames and some cryptic talk are enough to frighten me. Bah! If your power really is so great then why don't you come and give it a shot." Ashes demanded, reaching for his other two axes. Yet, before his hands could even touch the hilt, Zade had teleported right in front of Ashes, poised to attack.
"Unbelievable!" Ashes cried out, knowing it was futile to dodge Zade's oncoming onslaught.
"Reaper stance 7: Pentagram of hell." Zade's scythe burned with a brilliant blue flame. Zade quickly sliced of Ashes's arms, legs, and head, leaving behind a pentagram of fire which followed his blades every moved. As Ashes watched his limbs start to fly off his body from the force, blue chains of fire burst forth from the stumps and pierced each limb, pulling each on back towards the center of the body, compacting them all inside Ashes's chest. As Ashes's chest hit the ground the blue pentagram turned so that it faced down on the body. Suddenly, a tower of searing blue flame engulfed the pentagram and incinerated Ashes body. Zade gave his blade some celebratory swings and smiled, knowing that his foe had been defeated. But his confidence was quickly shaken as the ashes began congealing to one another once again, to make a fully formed Ashes.
"That stung a bit." Ashes mocked, then began laughing hysterically. Zade growled viciously and stalked towards Ashes.
"What? Is that the power of death you claim to have. Then I might be greater than death. I might as well be a God!" Ashes continued laughing. Zade pulled back his blade and once again engulfed it in blue fire.
"Reaper stance 5: Rend flesh" Zade brought his scythe across Ashes chest leaving a deep cut. Ashes just laughed harder.
"You're pathetic. When will you learn that there… is no… one… who can… what's happening!" Ashes bravado quickly turned to fear as he clutched his chest. HE wheezed out in pain, more than he had ever experienced before. He watch with despair as the new wound would now heal itself, instead glowing a bright blue.
"My rend flesh is burning away your body as fast as you can try to fix it. This is death's power, and no matter how great you become it will always find a way to get you." Zade said, the flames finally dying down a little. Ashes lay on the floor writhing in agony. Zade looked to his side to see Qrow approaching, using his sword as a crutch.
"I've never seen that power in action. It's as terrifying as the rumors." Qrow said, unable to stop himself from smiling.
"It's served me well." Zade answered.
"Just don't over do it. We don't need you digging you own grave." Qrow warned.
"I could say the same to you. 'I fucked your mom' Do you really want me to kill you?" Zade shot back.
"Maybe." Qrow chuckled. "Or maybe it was intelligence and semblance coming to save the day." Zade rolled his eyes.
"Uh huh." Qrow shook his head.
"I'm serious. My semblance imparted upon him the bad luck of you tapping into the reaper powers and growing far more powerful than him." Qrow explained.
"Whatever helps you sleep at night." Zade said, walking towards a still screaming ashes.
"Dick." Qrow called out.
Zade stood above ashes and raised his scythe.
"Time to give Dickques a little gift." Zade joked.
"That sucked." Qrow deadpanned.
"Shut up!" Zade said, swinging down sharply.
