"Shoot them! Shoot them all!" shouted one member of the Children of the Brothers.
"Open fire!" shouted another.
Dozens of men and women were using guns to fire at Jaune and Adam, who were the vanguard of the group. Yet in face of such overwhelming amount of firepower, Jaune and Adam still managed to cut them down to size. Despite the fact Jaune and Adam hated each other, they worked together in sync, barely needing a glance to know what the other wanted. They both knew that it was better to work together than to let these hate mongers win.
Jaune raised his shield to block the bullets while running forward, with Adam right behind him. As soon as they neared someone, Jaune shield bashed them while Adam swerved left and immediately unsheathed his sword, slicing the nearest enemy in half. While Adam cut one down, Jaune immediately slashed at another trying to take advantage of Adam's blind spot.
Adam then leaped forward, using Jaune's back to spring off and cut down three more. He then tossed his sword up just for Jaune to kick the hilt of his sword, driving it into several other grunts.
The two became a bloody tornado, crashing through the enemies with no mercy. One enemy, who seemed to be higher in the chain of command, tried to challenge them hand to hand combat. Jaune and Adam merely glanced at each other, sheathing their weapons before calmly walking side by side towards the man who was taller and bulkier. The man grinned as he tried to kick with his right leg, only for Jaune to suddenly kick said leg down. He tried a left hook, only for Adam to block it and force it back down, allowing Jaune to punch him in the face. The man winced in pain as he tried to grab Adam, only for him to jab him in the throat. Now stumbling backward while Jaune and Adam never broke a stride, he desperately tried to kick one of them while clutching his throat, only for Jaune to catch the offending leg, allowing Adam to punch him in the face. Suddenly, Adam grabbed the man by his arm and twisted it, while holding the man's throat with his other hand. At the same time, Jaune kicked at the back of the man's knee, forcing him down. The man was now kneeling while slowly being choked, but that wasn't what the two was aiming for. In the same breath, Jaune lifted his leg and ax kicked the man right on his forehead, snapping the man's neck with an audible crack.
Adam allowed the man to collapse on the floor lifelessly as he drew his sword up to block some bullets aimed at him. Jaune immediately created and sent several wind bullets towards them, knocking them all down. In a flash, the two were on them, instantly killing them all.
"Geez, those two are on a killing spree," commented Bal as he, Ghira, and Sienna walked through the bloody halls.
"They have a lot of anger, and these idiots are the outlet for that," shrugged Sienna as she dragged Mrs. Dewlaney on the floor with her chains still wrapped around her and her mouth gagged.
Ghira didn't comment as he wanted to join the boy/s in the slaughter spree, but his daughter was the highest priority. She was breathing rather heavily with her eyes closed as if trying to keep herself calm. To be honest, it was because he could trust his future son-in-law to protect them and his constant worry for Blake that prevented him from slaughtering the CoB members. He could feel their warm blood on his hands as their body turned cold, his claws ripping them apart, limb by limb... Ghira shook his head to shake these thoughts out of his head. He was no longer the Black Panther, but Ghira Belladonna, mayor of Kuou Kuana and a father and husband.
Jaune sliced a stolen Atlesian Knight in half, most likely stolen from Atlas itself. The CoB decided to send in these robots in hope to delay them further, though it made little difference. These knights, which were originally pure white, had half of their body spray painted in black, similar to their uniforms.
"Disgusting," breathed out Othim.
"Indeed, using our colors for their own perversions," agreed Andusk.
Suddenly, another heavily modified Atlesian Knight appeared behind Adam, wielding a high powered chainsaw as it attempted to cut Adam down. Adam's eyes widened as he whirled around and tried to get his sword up. He could tell the chainsaw blades had been specially crafted to cut through Aura and steel. However, before the android could land the hit, Jaune threw his sword right into its head, instantly destroying it. Unfortunately, this left Jaune without a sword, to which the androids started to converge on him. As Jaune blocked the attacks with his shield and sent elemental attacks back, one android was about to stab him from behind when a loud bang could be heard, followed by Adam's sword flying into the android. Adam grabbed Jaune's sword and parried an attack, flipping his hilt to blast his enemy's torso into pieces. Jaune grabbed Adam's sword and began wielding it the same way. The two glanced at each other, and before anyone could react, Jaune sent the sheath of his sword to Adam while Adam did the same. After quickly placing his shield on his back, Jaune began to slice his enemy with the red sword.
Then, a very familiar looking spider droid came crashing through the walls.
"Eliminate!"
"Take this! Our strongest unit!" shouted a male's voice from the intercom, "Atlas discontinued this model, but we took it and made it stronger. Though we have yet to mass produce these, once we do, the Faunus will finally be exterminated! And give me back my wife!"
"Well we know how that is now," chuckled Bal, "Need any help?"
"We got this," replied both young men.
The spider droid's leg armor suddenly slid open to reveal hidden missile ports and opened fire. On the underside of the spider droid was a mounted turret that began firing heavy caliber bullets at them. Jaune and Adam dashed forward, deflecting/dodging bullets and missile barrage. Using Adam's blade, Jaune launched 9 simultaneous slashes, cutting off spider's limbs.
Using its emergency pack, the spider droid suddenly sprouted engines beneath its body to stabilize itself in the air before transforming its body to a laser cannon and fired at Adam. When compared to the firepower of the older model, this one was was much more powerful. Its laser was twice as big and five times more concentrated. Even Adam would've have not attempted to block this with his own blade, fearing that the excess energy would break his blade, allowing the backlash to kill himself. However, Jaune's sword felt stronger than his. Betting his life on it, Adam blocked it with Crocea Mors, using the energy to fuel his semblance.
To his amazement, the blade managed to contain all that power before Adam finally sheathed the blade after the energy beam tapped off. His whole body was filled with even more power than he thought possible, his robotic arm bathed in red light.
Jaune finished off the robot with a spinning slash to its body and turned around just to have three more spider droids scuttling towards them.
"Oh c'mon!" groaned Jaune.
"Move!" shouted Adam, not knowing why he did so. If anything, he could've attacked Jaune along with the spider droids. The thought passed through his head, but he pushed it away. They were temporarily allies in this endeavor, and Jaune was the only one that could fight in case they were hit with the Faunus nerve gas.
Jaune quickly leaped up into the air as Adam ran towards the three spider droids. With his last step, he activated his Semblance, Moonslice, and drew his blade out. The results were even more devastating than Adam imagined. The spider droids had tried to put up some defensive looking barrier made of light and metal, only for his attack to cut right through all three droids. Not only that, but the attack continued to fly through the walls, wilting everything in its path.
"That's one way to clean up," commented Jaune as he landed next to Adam, holding out Adam's sword, sheathed into the shotgun sheath.
Adam hesitated for a moment. He knew Crocea Mors was a powerful weapon now that he tested it out, and wanted to keep it for himself. With it, he could easily bring the White Fang to new heights. However, despite all that power... it didn't suit him. It wasn't his weapon. It wasn't the weapon that he meticulously crafted, along with the man who saved him and taught him how to fight. Making his decision, he sheathed Crocea Mors and handed Jaune back his weapon, grabbing his own. He felt the familiar weight and warmth back in his hands, knowing he made the right choice as he tucked it back to his waist.
"Let's go," grumbled Adam as he quickly strode away.
They finally found an exit and kicked the door down, walking a few steps forwards when seven searchlights beamed down on their location. Jaune and the others blinked as they found themselves surrounded by mounted turrets, stolen Atlesian spider droids, paladins, and knights, and more CoB members.
"Surrender, and you may live to be our slaves!" shouted a commander from a distance with a loudspeaker, "Though no promises! We have no need to honor our words to filthy Faunus like you!"
Each one of them growled in anger until Jaune heard Othim speaking to him. A few seconds later, Jaune strode over to Blake, who's struggling was getting more prominent. Her pupils were now narrowed like a cat, her gaze looking predatory as she looked everywhere. When Jaune approached her, Blake's gaze snapped to his face, her face forming a predatory grin.
"Let her go," said Jaune softly to Ghira.
Ghira was a bit reluctant to do so but trusted Jaune, and whatever he was thinking would work. As soon as Blake was allowed on her feet, she pounced onto Jaune's arm, rubbing her face on the arm. Jaune ignored the soft sensations as he held his hand up and make a cut on it with his sword. With the preparations done, he gently placed the bleeding hand on her left chest, or rather more specifically, on her mate mark. Blake shivered as felt his hand on her chest, though it was not something she wasn't used to. The blood, though, was something new. The Mate Mark began to glow as Jaune pulled back, putting blood on his blade as he spun the blade once more, opting to use the summoning ritual. The enemies did nothing as they weren't sure why Jaune was spinning his blade around. It wasn't until when Jaune stabbed the blade into the floor did commander react.
"Fire at will!" commanded the commander, prompting everyone to fire at Jaune.
The four summoning lights came out momentarily before suddenly sinking into the ground. Darkness suddenly sprouted forth from the ground, black walls erected in front of Jaune and the others, protecting them. The shadows slowly grew larger and larger, blocking all the bullets and explosion until it finally took form. A long serpentine body with black scales coiled around Jaune and the others, while wings spread out as if to stretch.
"Guess who's here!?" growled Othim before roaring to the heavens.
"I hope we're not too late," whispered Ruby as she and the rest of Team Dragon were on their way in a Bullhead.
"We could've gotten there faster if it wasn't for those annoying assholes!" growled Yang.
They had been held up when they had to report the Council of Vale about the councilman Morado's betrayal and the current status of the expansion project. The council, in their 'infinite wisdom', demanded that Jaune abandon his rescue mission and reinforce the expansion. They wrote Blake off an unfortunate loss, and even said that she knew the risks when she became a Huntress. They were stubborn to not allow Team Dragon to leave Mt. Glenn in the hopes of expanding Vale, and privately, their own riches. It was only when Ozpin subtly suggested that Jaune would abandon Vale if they continued their current path, along with Glynda glaring and forcefully telling them they would be going as Blake was still a student and not a full-fledged Huntress, and she had a duty as the Headmistress to ensure the safety of all her students.
"Have hope, children," placated Glynda, "I'm sure Mr. Ryu-Long has managed to find a secure route to rescue Miss Belladonna... or is it Mrs. Ryu-Long-Belladonna now?"
"Haven't had the official wedding, so I'm going to say the former," suggested Neptune, only to be slapped in the back of the head by Nebula, "Ow, what was that for?"
"Just because," shrugged Neptune.
Along with Team Dragon were Ozpin, Glynda, Oscar, and an ace pilot.
"Hey, I'm getting some weird readings up ahead," notified the pilot, "Should we just dive right in?"
"Find an area so we can land on, as close to the base as you can get," said Ozpin, "We'll investigate these readings."
Suddenly, the skies clouded over, and a roar that shook the Bullhead could be heard.
"What was that?!" gulped Scarlet.
A second later, they all saw Othim rising from the base, his black scales gleaming as searchlights lit the area. Glynda and the others gasped at the creature that had somehow appeared in the middle of the base. They thought the worst of it, thinking it was another Grimm variant when...
"Hey, isn't that Othim?" asked Ruby, "Did Jaune summon him?"
"He must be really displeased," blinked Weiss.
While the rest just gaped, somewhere in Ozpin's heart, hope rose in him. Perhaps with Jaune and his dragons, he would be finally be rid of this curse. That he would no longer suffer the cycles of reincarnation, to have to form bonds just to break them throughout the ages. He had no doubt that all the troubles he went through would end soon.
"So, you wanted to rape my contractor's mate?" growled Othim, "Well too bad! Only person who's wrecking that piece of ass is Jaune Ryu-Long!"
"Not sure I'm wanted to know that," groaned Ghira, "Though it's good to see that he's here."
"What the hell is that!?" gaped Sienna, "And you know that... monster!?"
"And are we sure that... creature is with us?" added Bal.
"Ah, that's right, you two don't know the full story," said Ghira as he bopped one hand on the other, "I'll give you the details later. In short, just know he's a dragon and that's he's with us... even you Adam, though that won't be for long."
Ilia shivered at the thought of fighting such a being. She had heard rumors of a huge creature that completely destroyed an Ancient Grimm, but until now she had written it off as an exaggeration.
Sienna's nose suddenly perked up before looking back at her prisoner, the chained up Mrs. Dewlaney, with her eyes widened with fear. Then the prominent stain at her crotch began to grow.
"Oh dammit, she just pissed herself," groaned Sienna, "That better not stain my chains!"
Othim took a deep breath and fired streams of darkness from his mouth. The darkness slammed into tanks and completely destroyed them. Othim turned his head while still firing out streams of darkness from his mouth. Anything in its path was instantly annihilated. Othim raised his tail and lashed it out against a building, crushing the foundations and watched it crumble. The CoB members screamed in fear and horror and anger, but none mattered to the angry dragon. Several tried to escape, only for Othim to tap his claw into the ground. Seconds later, shadowy tendrils caught them and painfully ripped them apart. In minutes, the base was completely destroyed.
"Hmph, wasn't a challenge," huffed Othim before noticing a male trying to crawl away. He was dressed in a suit that would have been quite nice if it wasn't covered in dirt and blood.
"Ooh, who are you?" grinned Othim as he picked up the man with his teeth.
"Honey!" screamed Mrs. Delawney, who finally managed to spit out her gag.
"Ahh, the husband," nodded Othim, "You. I want that girl."
Sienna didn't dare to disobey and quickly pushed the woman towards Othim.
"So... you two thought it would be funny to rape my contractor's mate did you!?" roared Othim as the two hugged each other in fear, "Especially one with MY MARK! What gave you the right to decide such a decision! Don't answer that, I already know your answer. Now what to do with you?"
Othim closed his eyes, as if pondering something deep. Thinking he was distracted, the couple tried to run away once more.
"Now, that won't do," huffed Othim before smacking his tail on the ground. Instantly, black whips rose from the couple's shadows and chained them to the ground.
As they whimpered in fear, Othim leaned forward, bearing his teeth towards them, "Should I just eat you? You might make a good snack!"
Othim clacked his teeth a few times, causing them to scream until...
"Othim!"
Othim turned around to see Jaune waving at him and pointing at Blake.
"Ah, yes there are more pressing matters," nodded Othim, "In that case... die."
Othim whipped his tail up and slammed it down on the Delawaney couple. The others had to look away as the couple now looked like the result of an egg being smashed into a sidewalk. As soon as that was finished, Othim allowed Jaune and Blake to climb on before flying away to a private spot for the two. Though the others did not see it, Jaune and Blake were both perspiring heavily, both almost out of Aura. However, that did not change Blake's current state of mind. The faster they had their privacy, the better.
It was time to mate.
As the dragon flew away, Ghira could only sigh as he knew what was going to happen. His only hope was that they weren't going for children anytime soon. He was too young to be a grandfather.
"Well, I guess that's a wrap," shrugged Sienna as she contemplated about washing the stained chains.
"We'll wrap things up here," nodded Ghira before glaring at Adam, "You two should go. I'm sure Blake's other friends aren't far behind, and I doubt any of them will be willing to look the away."
Adam scoffed but nodded, getting ready to take Ilia to his ship he had used to drive here.
"Wait," said Ghira, suddenly, stopping Adam, "You wanted to know more about Wong, didn't you?"
"Which one?" replied Adam, "The one who taught me and cared for me, or the old one I killed?"
Bal bristled and was about to retort when Ghira stopped him. His next words chilled Adam to the core.
"Would it matter? They are the same person."
"No..." stammered Adam, almost dropping to the floor, "Y-You, you lie! The one who taught me was a Faunus with dog ears! He rescued me from those assholes, and taught me all I know!"
Adam then ripped off the mask he always kept on his face to reveal his right teal eye... and a scar on the left side. With a faded SDC brand covering the more than half of his other eye, up to his nose. It was one of the main reasons why he wore a Grimm mask. Not only to intimidate others, but to hide his scar. His shame.
Adam had gotten this brand due to a bastard of a master he had been forced to serve when he was a child. He had been trying to lift up some bags he had been forced to carry when someone from the SDC bumped into him, forcing him to lose all his items. And yet, the man had the audacity to accuse him of attempting to mug him and smearing his coat.
"I'm going to make sure you never forget about this!" sneered the man before telling his men to hold Adam hostage. The man whipped out the SDC brand, heated it up, and stamped it right on Adam's face.
Due to some miracle, Adam didn't go blind after the incident. Though afterward, he had been severely punished by his master for being late.
Adam had wanted to die and contemplated ending his life when he had been saved. When he woke up, he found himself at Kuo Kuana, with Wong nursing him back to health. He refused to believe that a human, who had been the one to cause him so much pain and agony, was also one who nursed him back to health and taught him all he knew.
"You know it's true," glared Ghira, "Look inside yourself. Does his face keep haunting you?"
"Wait, Wong, the one who was killed by Adam and his gang, is the same one who stayed in Kuo Kuana with the dog ears?" asked Bal in surprise, "The one who volunteered to take care of all those kids when someone raided half of Mistral's rich district?"
"Which was him and a few others," pointed out Ghira, "He knew that some of the freed Faunus had been abused by humans, and wouldn't trust a human caretaker. So he put on some dog ears and wore clothes that had been worn by a dog Faunus. The children couldn't tell the difference, and most of the adults were grateful for someone to help out."
Adam's face was in shock at this revelation and almost threw up. Luckily, Ilia managed to snap Adam back to reality, reminding him that they needed to leave. Giving one last look at Ghira and the others, Adam took Ilia and ran off into the woods.
"Well, that's that," commented Bal.
Sienna nodded and was ready to leave when she noticed one soldier that had somehow managed to survive pointing a gun at Bal.
"Get down!" shouted Sienna as she shoved Bal away. However, such action wasn't needed as Ghira somehow managed to get behind the grunt and snapped his neck in half. Clearly, there was a lot of pent up frustration within him.
"I'm going to find survivors and make sure they don't group up again," grunted Ghira as he marched away, "Sienna, Bal, you two stay here in case Blake's other friends arrive."
Both Bal and Sienna shivered at his tone of voice and saluted in fear. Minutes later, a Bullhead arrived, carrying Team Dragon, who quickly jumped out of the ship.
"What happened?" asked Ruby quickly.
"Quite a bit," explained Sienna, "Where to even start? Though watching that huge dragon annihilate almost everyone was impressive. Cathartic, even. Especially after that damn scene."
"What scene?" demanded Yang, her eyes narrowed.
"Err...," hesitated both Sienna and Bal. None of them wanted to tell them they had seen a brief video of Blake and Ilia getting raped, even if it had been clones of themselves.
"OH GODS NO-!" Crack
A voice shrieked out, only to be suddenly silenced suddenly.
"That'll be Ghira," shivered Sienna, "He's making sure nobody comes back for revenge. If you're looking for Jaune and Blake, they left with the huge dragon to who knows where. They'll probably be back... after Jaune takes care of Blake. She looked rather... thirsty if you know what I mean."
Everyone understood what Sienna had said... except for Ruby, who asked, "Thirsty? If she waited then we could've given her some water."
It was roughly two seconds she said that did she realize what Sienna had truly meant and blushed.
"Gee, she couldn't wait to scratch the itch," murmured Yang to her sister mates, who nodded in reply.
"Trust me, you can't," Pyrrha confirmed, remembering her own first, frenzied love session with Jaune.
"Regardless, we should search the area," suggested Ozpin, "There may still be others who are in need of our help, or enemies waiting to strike."
They heard another crack and decided to quickly avoid that source of noise.
A group of three survivors was running for their lives. As soon as they saw just who had invaded under the searchlights, they booked it. There was no way they wanted to tangle with Jaune Ryu-Long, Hero of Vale!
"I think we're safe now," huffed one of the female grunts, "Hey Bob, can you check where we are? Bob?"
The two of them looked back to where Bob was just to see him missing.
"Hey, where'd he go?" asked the second one, "He was just here a second ago! Julie?"
The man turned around to his other survivor to see her missing now.
"Guys? Guys!? Come on, this ain't funny!" cried the lone survivor.
"We're over here Jac!" shouted a voice.
"Oh Bob, thank heavens!" said Jac in a hysterical tone, "Seriously don't leave me alone... like... that."
His tone trailed off as he saw Bob's body hanging off a tree, his spine completely snapped in half.
"Holy!" cursed Jac, only for a mouth to clamp over it.
"Shhhh," whispered Ghira, "It'll all be over."
Jac's eyes open for a second before Ghira ended his life.
"Oh geez that was close," huffed another CoB grunt. He had managed to evacuate the whole place when he heard that Jaune Ryu-Long had invaded. Sure, he deserted, but he was still alive! Not to mention, he had another job that he had been paid handsomely up front, and would be paid even more upon finishing!
"Hello, I'm here!" shouted the grunt when he stopped at a seemingly empty location.
Seconds later, Arthur Watts stepped out of the shadows, along with a few Grimm Ursa.
"Did you bring it?" asked Arthur.
"Yea I got the sample," grinned the grunt as he tossed a small box to Arthur, "Faunus Nerve Gas samples ready to use."
"Mmm, excellent," nodded Arthur as he opened it the box, looking at one of the many vials inside it, "Dr. Merlot, if you could confirm it?"
Dr. Merlot suddenly appeared from the shadows, grabbing one of the vials and carefully pouring it into an apparatus on his hand. A few seconds later, a green light and beeping noise came out of the machine.
"Yep, that's the stuff," nodded Merlot, putting the apparatus away.
"Excellent, you followed through," nodded Arthur.
"Yea, and my pay?" asked the grunt excitedly, "You promised you'd reward me even more!"
"Ah yes, I did," acknowledged Arthur, "Then for your reward... you shall have a place in the new world order."
"Uhh, world order?" asked the grunt in confusion.
"Of course, not in a way you expect," continued Arthur, "Sacrifices have to be made. Yours will have to do."
Before the grunt could even speak, he felt something painful erupt from his chest. He looked down in horror to see his heart slowly beating out of his chest, being held by someone's hand.
"How do your upgrades feel?" asked Merlot nonchalantly.
"Very well," laughed the voice behind the grunt, "With this, I will be able to take over the company and bring it to new heights."
"Since we have that cleared up, Whitley, do clean up after yourself. And why don't you test out your new power on the human that you have now?" coughed Arthur.
Whitley grinned as he crushed the man's heart with his new hands. Suddenly, black strands shot out from his hands, attaching themselves onto the grunt himself. The grunt could only silently scream in his mind as black veins traveled up his body, quickly taking over his body. His eyes dulled and turned red as bones started to protrude out of various parts of his body, blood bursting out. As Whitley withdrew his hand away, there stood his new Grimm Death Knight. Though weaker than the usual Grimm and very ugly for a human-like figure, Salem had assured him that he could improve it as he got stronger and sacrificed more humans to it. Whitley merely flicked his arm up, and a glyph appeared before the new Grimm before it dissolved into it. Now Whitley had his own summon to use.
As he grinned and looked down at the base, Arthur put a hand over his shoulder.
"Not now," explained Arthur, "Though you've gotten much stronger, you still have much to learn before you're ready. If you go down now, you'll only expose yourself and our mistress wouldn't like that. Plus, after all that, I'm sure you wouldn't want to keep your toy waiting."
Whitley huffed but agreed as the trio turned around to leave. A few seconds later, they were on Grimm Gryphons, flying away from the base.
Well whatever, hoped you guys enjoyed this chapter!
As for KH3, well I beat it in two days. Spent the rest of that time getting 100% on my trophy list. Also got a quite a bit of guest reviews 'spoiling' the ending for me. Luckily, those came AFTER I beat the game. I deleted those because I didn't want the unfortunate chance of someone who hasn't beaten the game, going through the reviews, and getting spoiled, though at this point it's highly unlikely.
As for the ending... well let's say I might do another one-shot about KH3, about how the final battle SHOULD have gone. Look forward to that... if I get the time to do so.
