A New Beginning: Vol Special Part Eight

Across Worlds

Kill Ninety One: Family Brawl

"Okay! It's time for the rest of Team RWBY to show everyone what we're made of!"

Ruby, Blake, and FT Leone began to make their way to the field. Yang followed close behind but felt a hand on her right shoulder and stopped. She looked back at the "younger" Leone looking at her with concern. "I need to tell you something. A warning."

For as long as Yang's known the other girl, this was the first she's seen her like this. "Yeah, what's up?"

The "younger" Leone removed her hand from Yang's shoulder and gave her a serious look. "Unlike me, she won't hold back on you guys. I mean, I know she won't kill you, but-"

"I know what you're saying." Yang interjected and smiled at the "younger" Leone. "I'll see this as a new learning experience. Besides, I think it'll be cool learning about you another way. I'll keep my guard up, though." With that said, she walked away to join her younger sister and Blake.

Ruby and Blake saw her finally walking up to them. "Hey, Yang. What did Leone want to talk to you about?"

Yang just waved nonchalantly at her sister. "Just to say be really careful when fighting this Leone." She and the other two girls turned their attention to FT Leone. They saw her stretching her arms and her neck. She stopped as soon as she saw them look at her and waved at them while smiling.

"We should take that warning seriously," Blake advised.

"At least we have the advantage." Yang pointed out. "We know the more damage she takes, the longer it takes her to heal."

"She's not good at fighting opponents who are quick and agile," Blake added.

"And people who are stronger than her."

Ruby started to understand their situation. "Right, so we have agility working for us."

To Blake, there was one more important detail about their opponent. "There's still one thing we need to remember; this Leone has that Imperial Arms Magic and we don't know what it is or what it can do."

Yang saw the point Blake brought up, but there really wasn't anything they could do right now with that limited information. "We'll just have to deal with it when it happens. If we keep our heads in the game, we totally got this."

Both parties seemed ready. "Okay, the third match is about to begin. And..." Jaune raised his scroll and used the airhorn app. "Start!" He pressed the app and the airhorn blared.

FT Leone grinned as she slammed her fists together and Lionel began to glow. Yang, Ruby, and Blake then saw her transform into her beast form that looked very similar to the Leone they know. Yang couldn't help but smile. "So, I guess that's the famous Lionel we've heard so much about."

Upon seeing FT Leone's beast form, Blake was slightly more wary. "She almost looks like that one form the Leone took back at Haven. Is there a connection?"

The "younger" Leone couldn't help but smile at the familiar sight before her. "Ah, I feel so nostalgic seeing that form."

Upon a closer look, FT Chelsea noticed something about Leone and Blake and Yang "Hey, does anyone else notice that Leone can kinda pass off as-"

"Yes!" Weiss and most of the others replied in unison.

"Okay, I guess that question's been asked already.'

Yang slammed her fists together while grinning. "Alright, let's go-!" She couldn't finish her sentence as she instantly felt a strong force grip her face. It took a second for her, Blake, and Ruby to see FT Leone already where they were. Yang saw the other blond through in between her fingers and saw her grinning wickedly and a red glow in her eyes. That was the last thing she saw before FT Leone slammed her head into the ground and left a small crater.

"Yang!" Blake and Ruby shouted.

FT Leone chuckled a little as she picked up Yang still by her face and spun her around while smacking Blake and Ruby with their teammate's legs. After making a complete cycle, she chucked the brawler far away from her. Blake groaned a little before recovering and stood up. She immediately drew out Gambol Shroud and charged right to FT Leone. She swung both her weapon and her sheath at the same time but FT Leone caught both of her arms and powerfully kneed her in the stomach. Blake let out a loud, pained gasp before her opponent gave her a damaging headbutt straight to the forehead. She let go of the other girl's arms and Blake dropped to the ground.

Ruby saw it happen when recovered. "Blake!" She transformed Cresent Rose into its scythe form. However, FT Leone already reached her before she knew it and grabbed the snath. She gave the younger girl a grin before lifting her overhead with her still holding onto her weapon. Before Ruby knew it, FT Leone slammed her into the ground on her back. She also let out a pained gasp.

"RUBY!" Both Weiss and Esdeath shouted together.

Rienna winced at the move. "Ooh, that's going to hurt a lot more since she couldn't relax her body for it to absorb the impact."

Ruby looked up to see FT Leone to see her other arm raised and prepared for the next attack. The young leader used her semblance to escape before the other girl's fist created a small crater in the ground with some rose petals left behind. Ruby managed to gain some distance between her and her opponent. FT Leone turned around to face her. "Well, you're a squirrely one," Ruby said nothing as she twirled Cresent Rose and held it behind her while staring intensely at the other girl. FT Leone just grinned at the expression. "Alright then, show me what you can do, pipsqueak."

Insert RWBY Ice Queendom OST: Capabilities Unseen

Ruby observed FT Leone closely before closing her eyes and taking a deep breath and opening them. She ran straight toward her opponent with her scythe pulled back. The blonde just smirked. "A head-on attack? Big mistake!" She pulled her arm back and clenched her claw before punching straight at Ruby. However, before the attack could connect, the young leader used her semblance to avoid the attack again and split into three parts rushing past her. They reconvened behind her and FT Leone turned around only to barely avoid an upward slash by stepping back. That didn't stop Ruby as she turned around to the left for another attack. The attack was quick and FT Leone avoided that one as well. Ruby kept up with her onslaught of attacks with her opponent constantly avoiding them while moving back.

Thankfully, Ruby presented a small window for FT Leone's counterattack. She threw a punch the moment she had the opportunity, but Ruby used her semblance to avoid once more. She moved to the right side and the blonde threw another punch at her. Ruby used her semblance again to avoid it and was now on the opposite side. FT Leone growled in frustration as she attempted to deliver a rolling right kick again. The young leader used her semblance once more and avoided the attack by going up. Ruby went into the air and swung Cresent Rose down. FT Leone turned around just in time to see the attack coming and jumped back to avoid it. Ruby landed on the ground and FT Leone just growled as she went in for another attack.

From the peanut gallery, the "younger" Leone couldn't help but critique her counterpart's fighting style. "Man, did I really fight like that? I never realized how sloppy it looked."

Meanwhile, Weiss noticed something strange about the way Ruby was fighting. "Why is Ruby using her semblance to avoid her attacks? She's not using Cresent Rose like she normally does." She knew her leader must have a reason for doing something like this. She has faith in whatever plan the younger girl has.

As the fight went on, Wave watched Ruby's fighting style with her scythe carefully. He was astounded by the difference he was seeing compared to when he was training her without her weapon. "This is the first time I'm seeing her fight with her weapon. The way she's fighting is like night and day. Her moves are much sharper than when she was sparring with me. She also seems to be following the advice I've given her too."

Ruby swung Crescent Rose upward at FT Leone and she avoided it. She then turned for another attack from the side and her opponent saw that as a perfect opportunity. She immediately closed the distance between them and caught the snaith. She grinned at the younger girl. "Ha!" In an instant, Ruby jumped while still gripping her weapon with her other hand with both her boots in front for a second. At the same time, she pulled the trigger to fire a shot to push her forward and kicked FT Leone straight in her face. She lost her grip on Ruby's weapon and was sent flying away from her.

The younger Chelsea couldn't help but snicker and laugh at what she and the rest saw. "She got you good there, Leone!"

Mine narrowed her eyes a little as she recalled what Ruby briefly did. "That's right. Ruby mentioned her weapon was also a gun. She used the recoil of her weapon to propel herself and get a hit in with her attack. A clever tactic."

FT Leone took a few steps back while her right hand was on her face to quell the pain. "Ah, son of a-!" She growled frustratedly and removed her hand from her face only to see Ruby up close to her with Cresent Rose in its gun form placed right next to the right side of her head. She immediately fired a gunshot. The recoil pushed the younger girl back while the older girl screamed bloody murder while putting her hand on her lion's ear with her eyes closed.

The "younger" Leone understood quite well what happened. "While in Lionel form, all the senses are increased. If you fire a gun near one of the ears, it's going to hurt like a bitch. Ruby's using Lionel's strengths against her. I guess that's something else I must work on."

FT Leone groaned in pain as she kept hearing the loud ringing in her ear. "Shit, keep it together." She opened one of her eyes to see Ruby rushing toward her. "Don't take your eyes off your opponent!" The young leader swung Cresent Rose from the left, but the older girl ducked to avoid the attack. She lunged at Ruby, but the young leader spun her weapon and pointed the heel of her weapon to the ground. She fired another shot and was propelled into the air.

Mine started to understand Ruby's fighting style. "So, that's how she fights. She didn't reveal that before because she wanted to catch Leone off-guard."

FT Leone's attack missed and looked up. She saw this situation as an opportunity and smiled. "Bad move!" Ruby was a sitting duck while in the air since she couldn't move. Before she could jump, she felt a strong tug on her right leg and was strongly pulled away from Ruby. She screamed while being thrown overhead. She caught a quick glimpse, looking down to see it was Blake who pulled her away. Ruby turned Cresent Rose around, so the heel was behind her. She aimed at FT Leone and fired another shot to propel herself right at her. The older blonde saw her coming and panicked a little. "Crap!"

Once Ruby was close, she swung her scythe at her opponent and struck her. "Alright, she got the second hit!" Nora exclaimed excitedly

"Not exactly." Ren corrected.

Upon a closer look, Ruby's eyes went wide with shock when she saw FT Leone not only stop her attack but caught the toe of her weapon with her teeth. Before she could let her make her next move, the older blonde delivered a powerful kick to her left side. For a moment, her body flickered. She followed the momentum of her kick and turned her body around and kicked Ruby straight to the ground.

End OST

"RUBY!" Weiss, Esdeath, Blake, and Qrow shouted.

Blake was about to catch Ruby when a quick, yellow flash rushed by her. Yang jumped and slid across the ground and caught her younger sister. "Gotcha!" At almost the same time, Leone landed on her feet. Yang came to a stop and took a closer look at Ruby. She smiled knowing that Ruby didn't take too much damage thanks to her aura.

Jaune looked at his scroll and saw that Ruby's aura gauge was nearly empty. "Ruby's aura is almost gone. She can't go on fighting anymore."

"Not that she can anyway after Leone's last attack." Mine commented.

The fight went on pause when Yang walked over to the rest of the group carrying Ruby. Once she reached them, she set Ruby down in front of them. Wendy immediately went up to the unconscious girl. "I'll heal her. Don't worry."

All Yang did was smile at the young dragon slayer. "Won't have to consider everything I heard about you. Now, if you'll excuse me..." As soon as she walked away from the group, Wendy kneeled next to her and began healing her.

While doing so, there was something FT Chelsea was wondering about. "So, how did Ruby's aura go down? Leone never managed to get a hit on her except for that last one."

"Her semblance," Weiss answered. "Whenever she uses her semblance, it takes up some of her aura."

Mine recalled how much Ruby used her semblance earlier in the fight. "That makes sense. She must've known the consequences when doing that."

"She did get a hit on Leone in the funniest way possible, so I say it was worth it." FT Chelsea commented.

"Still, she was lucky this wasn't a battle to the death. Sacrificing too much for too little is one way to get yourself killed."

As Yang was walking back, she saw FT Leone unwrap Blake's weapon and threw it back to her. She managed to reconvene with Blake. "So, what did I miss while I was gone?"

"Ruby managed to get a hit on her," Blake Explained.

Yang couldn't help but smile. "Ha, that's my little sister." Both turned their attention to FT Leone.

"She's strong but not unbeatable. Ruby's already taken advantage of using her hearing against her." Blake shifted her attention to her girlfriend. "Yang..." The other girl did the same. And looked at each other for a few seconds before Yang smiled. "Got it. Let's do this." They looked back at FT Leone again. She grinned confidently and slammed her robotic fist into her other hand. "Alright, let's get the next round started!"

Insert RWBY OST: I'm The One

Both Yang and Blake took a running start right at FT Leone with Yang following Blake closely. All FT Leone did was smile as she rushed toward the Bumblebee duo. It took her no time to close the gap between them and she pulled her arm back before throwing the first punch. When she did, her attack surprisingly went through, and Blake vanished. This moment of surprise provided both girls enough time to use this opportunity to gang up on her from both sides. Blake swung Gambol Shroud and Yang threw her robotic fist at the same time. However, in an instant, FT Leone grabbed their wrists and slammed their bodies together in front of her. She then momentarily let go of both girls and turned counterclockwise to deliver a swift, powerful kick to Blake's side.

Blake managed to block the incoming attack with both sword and cleaver, but it didn't stop it from sending them away from their opponent. The duo separated as soon as they hit the ground while grunting in pain. When they stopped, they immediately stood up while panting. After taking a brief rest, Blake started running again toward FT Leone with Yang following her again. She was about to meet them halfway through when she saw Blake create a double of herself running next to her.

An interesting fact that caught FT Akame's attention. "She can create clones of herself?"

After seeing Blake's semblance, Leone managed to put together what must've happened earlier. "So, that's what she did. Her power must be something like Akame's Afterimage and Shadow Copy. Still, I can tell which one of you is fake!" Before she could move, she saw the real Blake jump high into the air and threw the blade part of Gambol Shroud at her. As soon as it reached her, she easily caught it with her hand and grinned. "You'd really think this'll work on me!" She strongly tugged at the weapon toward her.

Which was what Blake wanted her to do as she let go of her weapon just before FT Leone pulled it. The blonde became off balance since she used her strength to pull the weapon and fell back a bit. Blake's shadow slowed down a little for Yang to catch up and the shadow grabbed her right hand. The shadow momentarily stopped and threw Yang with everything she had right at FT Leone. After that, she leaped into the air and grabbed the handle of Gamble Shroud and threw it back to Blake. The shadow then vanished Meanwhile the distance between them closed quickly as Yang aimed and pulled her left arm back. Once near enough, Yang threw her left forward right next FT Leone's left lion ear and fired a loud shot right next to it. The shot blew her back away from her opponent while she screamed in agony once again while covering her ear. "SON OF A BITCH, AGAIN!?"

Blake waited for this opportunity and inserted a Dust cartridge into Gambol Shroud. A small detail Akame noticed. Blake then ran toward FT Leone once more. She joined up with Yang and this time she was taking charge. FT Leone managed to recover from the gunshot noise and saw the two running toward her again. This time, she set her sights on a different target. She leaned in slightly and launched herself right at Yang. This time, she saw the other blonde coming at her and immediately stopped. When she did, FT Leone was already in front of her, and she crossed her arms with the robotic arm in front to block. FT Leone threw her punch and though Yang did manage to block the attack, it also sent her away. While she was dealt with, she saw off the corner of her eye that Blake with Gambol Shroud pulled in ready to strike. She grinned as she jumped over the other cat girl just as she swung her weapon. She wasn't going to attack Blake a third time in case she uses that Afterimage technique.

However, to Blake, it didn't matter how her opponent avoided her attack because she was counting on it. She created another Shadow that went right up to where FT Leone was, and she had no choice but to attack it lest she attacks and gets the second hit. As soon as she swung her fist at the shadow, the attack hit but was then struck by a strong electrical current that ran rampant throughout her body. "NOW!" Blake turned around and threw Gambol Shroud around FT Leone's torso and pulled everything she had to send her opponent further into the air. "YANG, NOW!"

Yang blasted herself into the air using her gauntlet and arm and headed over to where FT Leone was. They only had a few seconds left before their opponent could recover from the shock. A few seconds was all the brawler needed. Once she was above the other blonde, she activated her semblance, and her hair went aflame as her eyes went red. She dived right at FT Leone with her robotic arm pulled back. Once she was near, she yelled loudly and punched straight at the other girl's solar plexus with a mighty, powerful blow. She continued to yell and pushed her attack all the way through and sent FT Leone hurdling toward the ground. She crashed into the ground and a large dust cloud appeared. When it cleared, she was laying in the center of a crater created by the impact. Yang landed not too far away and deactivated her semblance. Blake pulled back her weapon to her and reconvened with her girlfriend. As soon as they were together again, they both smiled and high-fived each other.

End OST

Nora and the others cheered as they celebrated their team getting their second hit. Meanwhile, FT Akame put together what the Bumblebee duo had done. "That gunshot move Yang did before was meant to disrupt Leone's hearing. As soon as that happened, Blake inserted a cartridge into her weapon. Leone couldn't hear it, so she had no idea. And then there was that afterimage that shocked her. I'm assuming it's because whatever she inserted into her is what caused it. It's interesting to see how their abilities can change depending on what Dust they're using."

Meanwhile, Wendy focused on something else in the fight. That something was Yang's hair and eyes looked. She couldn't help but rememberwhat the Mine she knew said back she was partaking in her first mission. "I swear if I didn't know better, her eyes would turn red, and her hair would be on fire or something."

While they enjoyed their brief victory, Blake and Yang knew this fight wasn't over yet. Yang noticed during this entire time; FT Leone hadn't moved since her attack. "Come on, Leone! I fought against your otherself once and I know it'll take more than that to beat you!" She heard no reply from the other girl. They were beginning to worry until they heard a loud sound coming from FT Leone's direction. A sound that made her and Blake curious. "What was that sound?"

They heard that same sound again but this time it was going at a particular rhythm. Something Blake recognized. "It almost sounds like it's a heartbeat."

The sound of the heartbeat became faster and sounded stronger with each passing second. Then the heartbeats were becoming quicker between intervals until it sounded like it was beating like mad with no rest in between. Then for one still moment, FT Leone's eyes opened with a bright blue in them, and lightning erupted from her body.

Insert Bleach OST: Invasion

The wind blew fiercely throughout the battlefield and through everyone. When the lightning passed, everyone saw FT Leone stand up while still hearing that impossibly fast heartbeat. They heard her growl deeply and saw that her skin and hair were changing color. Her hair and fur became white while her skin changed to a golden tone. Two large, curved horns grew out of her forehead. She took a deep breath and flexed as she let out a mighty, terrifying strong roar that echoed throughout the entire field. "Imperial Arms Magic! Take-Over: Lionel Beast Soul Combination! Mighty Savage Golden Lion!"

End OST

From that roar alone, the fear the "younger" Leone felt was overwhelming. She wasn't even on the field and yet her instinct told her to run as far away as possible from whatever her otherself had become. "W-What the hell did she do? What did she become?!"

"Take-Over." FT Chelsea explained.

"And what exactly is that?" Mine asked.

FT Chelsea looked over in Mine's direction. "Take Over is a magic that allows the user to take over another being. One example is when I fought all of you guys as Lisanna using her Animal Soul: Cat Take Over. Animal Soul Take Over is just one of the other Take Over types. Others include Take Over: Beast Soul which allows you to take over any large, dangerous, powerful beast, and Take Over: Satan Soul which allows you to take over demons. And there's God Soul where which allows you to take over a God."

Mine could scarcely believe that last part. "What kind of freaking magic is this?! Take over Gods?! Really?!"

"That's quite intriguing to hear," Ozpin said. "However, such magic must have a drawback to it."

"You're right. The trick with Take Over magic is that you must know the target you're taking over. If it's too strong, the castor will be unable to control it and go berserk. Something that's already happened before." She couldn't help but think about what happened to Lisanna all that time ago when Elfman tried to take over that rampaging beast but lost control. "The kind of Take Over Leone is using is Beast Take Over. Hell, it was something she decided a long time ago because it fits perfectly with Lionel. In fact, she's the one who coined the term 'Imperial Arms Magic'. When it came to finding targets, she wouldn't settle for anything less than the best. Even if we had to...do an illegal S-Rank quest or two."

There was only one fact that caught the "younger" Leone's attention. "Wait, so she's using this Take-Over while Lionel is active?"

"Yep. I think the Take-Over increases Lionel's strength by...ten-fold, I think? Maybe more. Fun fact about this Take Over is that we heard it was some guardian deity that went mad when lightning struck it and was destroying anything in sight or came up to it." The "younger" Leone's mouth went agape when she heard that description. She turned her attention back to the battle knowing fully well that Yang and Blake didn't have a chance in hell in winning this fight.

FT Leone slammed her claws into the ground and opened her mouth to form a fireball that grew quickly in size. She sent that fireball right at the Bumblebee duo plus two more after in quick succession. "Move, move, move, MOVE!" Both girls ran in the same direction and managed to avoid the attacks, FT Leone was just getting started.

She stood up and put both of her arms above her head. Lightning crackled as it formed in the space between her hands. Mighty Savage Lightning Bomber!" She hurled her lightning sphere right at the duo and again, they ran for their lives to avoid it. Thankfully, they did but when the attack struck the ground where they previously stood, multiple bolts of lightning went in different directions everywhere. Both girls grabbed each other and fell to the ground to avoid the lightning.

Yang glanced back at FT Leone. "She's seriously not playing around now. How are we supposed to fight something like that?"

FT Leone let out another mighty roar before launching herself at the duo. They managed to stand up and began to run away, but their opponent was already behind them and punched the ground where a large, powerful explosion occurred. While the explosion didn't directly hurt them, they certainly felt the force behind it and were blown away by it.

They stood up again and felt exhausted. They couldn't take another attack like that. They turned around to see FT Leone standing across from them and for some strange reason, she smiled. She hunched her back and crossed her arms in front. Her fur turned black with bone-like armor covering the top of her hands and extending all the way to her forearms. Three spines emerged from each of the arms of the armor and one extending out from her elbows. That same bone armor covered the lower half of her face. Leone's eyes turned bright orange with red markings going through her eyes and her hair turned black. "Take-Over: Lionel Beast Soul Combination!" She uncrossed her arms and leaned back while letting out a terrifying howl. "Alpha Black Wolf!"

Her new appearance surprised Weiss and the others. "When did she have the time to take over a Grimm? She looks like an Alpha Beowolf!"

FT Chelsea looked at the former heiress with a confused expression. "Alpha what now? No, this is a Take Over of an Alpha Black Wolf we went up against that was terrorizing several villages. We had to deal with fifty of its spawn before we could get to it. After that, Leone took care of it."

FT Leone leaned forward, and multiple large, curved bone spikes shot out from all over her upper torso and arms. She launched herself right at the duo while spinning her whole body. "Crazy Frenzy!" Blake and Yang had no choice but to jump far away in opposite directions to avoid the attack. FT Leone stopped her attack and retracted all the bones in her body. She then spread her arms apart and aimed at the two girls. Multiple sharp bones then shot out from her forearms and headed straight at the duo. They avoided the next attack and managed to reconvene with one another.

End OST

Yang let out a frustrated growl at how this fight was going. "How are we supposed to fight against something like that?"

Blake had to agree. "Fighting up close is near suicide and our usual tactics won't work. I'm not seeing a way we can win."

Yang couldn't help but laugh. "Overcoming everything with brute strength alone. That's Leone for you."

They saw FT Leone retract the bones into her body again and turned around to face them.

Insert Akame Ga Kill OST: Gekisen

The Bumblebee Duo prepared themselves for her next move but what they saw was her lean forward and slam her right claw into the ground. Then the ground began to shake violently before a giant, horrid dragon emerged from the ground behind her. It was a beast Mine, the "younger" Leone, Wave, and most of the Remnant Group recognized. "No way..."

"That's..."

"The TYRANT DRAGON!?"

The Tyrant Dragon roared as it opened its mouth and ate FT Leone. When it did, a bright pillar of light shot up into the air. When the light faded, they saw her with a different appearance. To mostly everyone, they saw a familiar white-armored, humanoid version of the Tyrant Dragon. A headpiece that had two long protrusions coming out from the sides with wild long grey hair coming out from the bottom of the headpiece and two skirt tails coming from behind the waist. A star cross marking was located just above the breasts. "Imperial Arms Magic! Take-Over: Lionel Danger Beast Soul Combination! Tyrant Dragon!" She let out a loud, harrowing roar that echoed throughout the entire field.

End OST

The "younger" Leone somehow got over her shock and turned her attention to FT Akame and the others. "How? How does she have the Tyrant Dragon?!"

FT Chelea just crossed her arms. "From what we heard; it happened back in Hargeon when Alverez invaded. Remember when we told you there was one guy with the enemy that could bring back people from the dead? Bulat and Sheele were among them. When she fought them, she managed to take the Tyrant Dragon from Bulat's Incursio since if he was alive, so was the dragon. So, she used her Take Over magic on it. She did say something about how it sucked, she couldn't use it on a Danger Beast back in our world. But lo and behold, she managed to do it."

Even after hearing that, the logic behind it sounded insane to the "younger" Leone. "Okay, but what about the Tyrant Dragon trying to take over her? It happened to Tatsumi."

"You don't have to worry about that." FT Akame answered. "She made the Tyrant Dragon succumb to her so there's no danger of it trying to take over her like it did to Tatsumi."

And after hearing that, it sounded more unbelievable to the "younger" Leone and the rest of the group. Except for Mine. Of course. Leone would be crazy enough to do something like that. Still, it's impressive. It took an entire army to bring that thing down to make it into an Imperial Arms and she was able to do just that on her own. Plus, a Take Over of the Tyrant Dragon combined with Lionel? I hate to be the one to fight that and unfortunately, they're the ones who are."

Speaking of the Bumblebee Duo, they were frozen in fear of seeing FT Leone's Tyrant Dragon Take Over with her star-shaped pupils staring at them intensely. It felt like if they moved one inch, it'd be over before they knew it. "Blake, got any ideas? Any tricks we can use?"

"Unfortunately, no."

Yang couldn't help but laugh nervously. "Well, I guess there's only one thing to do now GO OUT GUNS BLAZ-" She stopped talking when FT Leone suddenly went past them and stood behind them with her right arm sticking out to the side with her index finger curved.

All was quiet for several seconds. "Tyrant Dragon's Overload Slash: Light." Two flashes of sparkling light appeared just before two small explosions appeared from the two girls. Their bodies fell out from the smoke with their aura flickering and fell to the ground, both unconscious and damaged. FT Leone smiled as she undid her Take Over and smiled. "And that's game, set, match."

Jaune looked at his scroll and saw that their aura gauges were nearly depleted. "And that's the end of the third battle. The winner is Leone!"

B

"Good fight you three. It was a lot of fun." FT Leone laughed heartily.

After she brought over the unconscious Blake and Yang back to the group, Wendy used her healing magic. Around that time, Ruby woke up with Yang and Blake waking up not too long after that. They weren't as happy as the other girl and Yang sighed. "I was warned, and I knew you were going to be strong, but man, you're something else entirely."

Ruby only whined in disappointment. "Man, I wanted to see that Beowolf form."

"Oh, I can do that now. Check it." FT Leone transformed into her Alpha Black Wolf Take Over form and howled.

Immediately Ruby had stars in her eyes. "Oh, that's so cool!"

Weiss wasn't as impressed. It's surprising how similar she looks to an Alpha Beowolf. Thank goodness they don't have any of the abilities she demonstrated in the fight."

Nora was also excited to see FT Leone's forms. "What else can you transform into?"

FT Leone smiled as she was more than happy to show off her Take Overs. "I'm glad you asked! Here!" She transformed into her various Take Overs. Imperial Arms Magic! Lionel Beast Soul Combination! Spiky Silver Beast! Lion of the Full Moon! Radiant Sunne Lion! Aggrorian Beast!"

It felt strange seeing her different Take Over forms in a more casual situation rather than in a fight. "So, what else can you transform into?" The younger Chelsea asked.

FT Leone just reverted to her original form. "A lot more but if I try to show them all, we'll be here all day. In any case..." She turned her attention to Ruby, Yang, and Blake. "Time for you guys to explain your powers. Starting with you." She focused solely on Ruby.

Ruby laughed as she had no problem explaining. "Right. My semblance is Petal Burst which makes me really fast."

"And apparently leaving rose petals whenever you use it." FT Chelsea added.

After hearing that explanation, FT Leone didn't seem like she was satisfied with the answer. "Hmm, I don't know. I somehow get the feeling there's more to it than you think." Ruby just seemed confused as she didn't know what the older girl meant by that. She turned her attention to Blake. "So, what about yours?"

Blake just closed her eyes and sighed before opening them again. "My semblance is called Shadow. It creates a copy of myself to take the hit while I..." She slightly looked away as if she was ashamed. "Run away." She looked back at FT Leone. "Also, if I apply Dust, the shadow can take on its properties."

"Like when one of them electrified me." FT Leone commented. She then smiled. "Actually, that's a pretty good power you have. I hate sneak attacks but I gotta admit you got me good with it. That and pretty much using my strengths against me. You should be proud of that power of yours. It reminds me a lot of Akame's Shadow Copy power and her Afterimage." Blake decided to take the compliment. FT Leone finally looked over in Yang's direction. "And so, what's yours?"

Ready to show everyone what you got?" Wendy didn't say anything as she looked at the "younger" Leone, Esdeath, and Wave and they did the same.
