As the rest of the heroes head off to Ayame Kajou's mansion, far off from the world, Eri Sawachika was alone, pondering to herself. After reunited with Kenji Harima (and goated to making her fight him, by Cinder Fall), Eri suddenly regained her senses. She was no longer a puppet to evil.

Eri whispered, "... … …What am I?"

She was, however, conflicted. Her ex-lover was present, Tenma was still in Targus City, Yakumo is dead, and no one she knows is helping her. She was alone… … …with ONE person.

Eri looked at her hands and sniffled, "Is this my punishment? For everything that happened? I can't even protect Tenma. And god knows where she is…" She walked down the forest path, and looked from afar. She saw Kajou's mansion and said, "The truth." She walked forward, focused, "The truth will tell me…"

She made a clear path to the mansion, without looking back.

Meanwhile, in Targus City, Mirai was repairing Riho & Shiori, who were badly damaged from their battle with The Weiss Army, a group of clones created by Emily Maynard's technology, Weiss Schnee's DNA, and Neo Politan's semblance.

Mirai said, "Almost done…" She tweaked a few circuits inside Riho's chest, and then patched her up. "She took an awful beating. I'll finish them up, later."

She approached Tenma and said, "Anyways, Tenma… It's nice to meet you finally. April told me all about you, and how scary you became. Of course, you were once human… and Yakumo remade you into who or what you are. But I digress. We can have that fixed up in no time." She examined the area where Weiss ripped out her battery, "Hmm… Wires are frayed and snapped completely off. No matter. I can replace these. This place isn't a Gynoid Pit Stop for nothing."

Mirai went to work and replaced the wires, and added a new battery into her. Mirai then plugged her in and said, "Good. Now, we wait 45 minutes. It's usually a slow charge, but she'll be back and up-and-running, before you know it."

She turned around and saw a figure appear in the shadows. It was Weiss. She paused and said, "Speaking of… How happy you can join us, Weiss Schnee. Tenma and the others were worried about you."

Weiss hopped in, and she said, "You know exactly what I want. Give me T3NMA."

"Forget it!" Mirai called out, "You're not bringing her to Kajou, all to smash her into bits."

"Curious that you are protecting her, much as your broken dolls. But tell me, how do you even know who I am?"

Mirai said, "Because Tenma's data that I mined into, she showed me the truth. Most of her data was corrupted and deleted. But there was one memory that told me about you… You're turned. You're the real Weiss Schnee… only what has Emily Maynard done to you?" Mirai was hurt, as Weiss growled.

"You question me, because of that wind-up doll?" Weiss barked, "I'll have you know that the time I had with Emily Maynard, you might even say that this is truly the Best Me that I am. My days of being an anchor are over."

"What about Ayame Kajou? Whatever happened to killing her, for what she's done to everything?"

"Kajou? I still hate her… but–."

"I knew it. You're still you, Weiss!" Mirai said, "I don't think you converted at all. Emily Maynard made you a robot, and created a new persona of you, erasing the original you, and overwriting your own personality!"

"YOU BE SILENT! How dare you talk to me like that, you pretentious little brat?" She held Myrtenaster at her and beeped, "You shall be. Judged. Judgment will befall onto you."

Mirai pleaded, "I mean you no harm. Don't hurt Tenma."

Weiss smirked, "Actually… I have other plans." She turned to Riho, and she dashed after her.

"NO!"

SMASH!
Weiss used her weapon and demolished Riho into pieces. Her head rolled to her feet and said, "Just a retail bargain bin of failure."
SMASH!
She crushed Riho's head and smashed it into pieces. Weiss smirked, "Goodbye, Riho…"

Mirai sobbed, "No… Riho…"

"Now… Hand over Tenma. Or suffer the same fate as your robots."

Mirai growled, "Never."

Weiss grabbed her and threw her down to the floor. Weiss pointed at her and said, "If you won't comply, then I will kill you. Riho died the same way, as do you. Now, be a good girl and let me take Tenma off your hands."

"Leave her alone, Weiss!" Two voices yelled. Riho & Shiori emerged from behind her, as they prepared themselves.

"WHAT? Impossible!" Weiss cried, "Riho, you're broken completely! I killed you!"

Riho said, "I knew of your forthcoming, Weiss. Thanks to the data from Tenma, we know the truth… Emily Maynard changed you."

Shiori added, "And to add, we survived, but barely…"

Riho explained, "As soon as the others left Targus City, Shiori and I fought tooth and nail against the Weiss Army. Shiori suffered so much, but some of our Targus City brethren came along and aided us. We chased them out of the city, while me and Sis left for Mirai."

"But… That's impossible! You two were broken down, right near my feet!" Weiss shouted.

Mirai smiled, "Spare discarded robots from the junkyard. I had to refresh the outer shells, and made them replicas of Riho & Shiori."

"And it worked." Shiori said, "Only… the replica of me looked ugly."

Riho & Shiori prepared to fight, as Riho produced a light sword. She said, "Mirai, protect Tenma. We got this."

Shiori held up two light daggers made of pure energy, and she added, "Weiss Schnee, we won't kill you… Just snap you back to reality, as the human you are."

Weiss glared, "So, that's how you want it… Once I erase both of you, I'll kill Tenma and your creator!"

They yelled, as they charged at her, "YOU LEAVE MIRAI ALONE, ALSO!"

They clashed blades, and Riho kicked Weiss down. Weiss dashed forward, using a white glyph. She jabbed at Riho, and she and Weiss exchanged blade strikes. Weiss shoved Riho down, and Shiori did a double slash to Weiss. She was struck down, and Shiori spun around, slashing her light daggers around. She jabbed down, and Weiss got cut from her skin. Her face started to slowly deteriorate.

Weiss groaned, "No! Get back here!" She dashed at Shiori. She ducked, and Riho landed a roundhouse kick to the face. Most of her skin fell off, revealing her real face with her scar.

Mirai whispered, "So, it's true…"

Riho said, "Weiss… We can't fight you, but if it's to wake you up, then we have no choice."

Weiss slashed down and Riho was pushed to the floor. Riho groaned, "Okay… Reasoning with you is out, so–."

SMASH!
CRASH!
Riho was flung into a wall, and was dizzy, "Rats… I just got repaired, too…"

Shiori dashed forward, and she and Weiss exchanged blade strikes. Shiori spun around and hit her chest with a heel kick. She kneed her waist, punched her face with a one-two, and did a backflip kick to her chin. Weiss landed on one knee and dashed forward, aiming her blade to the heart. Shiori blocked the attack, but she was struggling. They broke free, and Shiori moved out of the way of Myrtenaster's tip.

Mirai asked Riho, "Are you okay?"

Riho responded, "Damage sustained… Please wait…" She growled, "What are you doing?"

"It's okay, Riho. I'll fix you up–."

She grabbed her wrist, "I said… Protect Tenma! Get her out of here!"

"But, Riho–."

"GO!" Riho yelled.

Mirai ran off, as she carried Tenma away. Weiss called out, "OH, NO, YOU DON'T!"

She chased after Mirai, but Riho tackled her down and yelled, "I said, leave Mirai alone!" She punched down on her and yelled, "You abused Mirai and my older sister? Not funny!"

Weiss shoved her off, and she crashed down. Riho moaned, "I'm… mind going…"

Shiori yelled, "RIHO!" She dashed at Weiss, and they exchanged blows. Shiori slashed at her arms, and Weiss jabbed at her waist and chest. Weiss's clothes were tattered up, and Shiori's white and blue outfit was ripped a little. Shiori kicked her down, and Riho got up, holding her injured right arm. She threw her sword to her left hand and prepared. "I'm not ambidextrous, but I know how to fight…"

Weiss beeped, "You shall be. Destroyed. I am. Weiss Schnee." She swept Shiori down, and then stomped on her left arm. She screamed, as Weiss said, "You have already felt my wrath before. My army will grow. It's over for you."

Riho gripped her light sword and hissed, "I'm sorry…" She dashed at her, but Weiss blocked her attack. She gasped, "What?"

"You just don't know when to quit, do you?" Weiss shoved Riho down, and shot ice towards her. Riho was struck down hard, and Weiss hissed, "Now… To make sure you stay broken…"

Weiss unleashed fire from her sword, using dust inside her weapon, and she blasted at Riho. She dodged out of the way, and she was staggering. Riho was losing energy.

"I need… to recharge. But she's wearing me out."

"That's the plan… I'm going to make you weak, so you can cease function."

Shiori grabbed her from behind and shouted, "You forgot about me, bitch!"

Riho moaned, "Shiori!" Weiss broke free, but Riho used her light sword and slashed up.

"En guard!" She swiped up and Myrtenaster flew into the air. Riho hissed, "Bitch."

POW!
Riho landed a left hook to Weiss's face. She dropped down to the floor, and Myrtenaster fell in a clank. Riho said, "That's odd. Usually her aura would dissipate."

Shiori said, "I know. Sadly, Emily Maynard made her too powerful." She asked her, "How do you feel?"

"Fine… just needed my right arm touched up."

"Where's Mirai?"

"With Tenma. I don't know what happened but–."

Weiss groaned, as she was slowly getting up. Shiori barked, "It's over, Schnee. Give up!"

Weiss beeped, "I won't… give up…" Her face came off, showing LED eyes and a speaker mouth.

Riho was shocked, "She's… She's a complete android!" Shiori cried, "She's some sort of… not giving up type of robot."

Riho whimpered, "It can't be… Wait… This Weiss Schnee is a robot, too?"

"NO!" Tenma said, as she appeared, "She is Weiss. Someone made her into a freak…"

Weiss beeped, as she recovered her face, "Don't make me laugh. I'm still Weiss Schnee."

Temna said, "Exactly…" She emerged from the doorway and said, "You destroy me, but I am still standing… I always loved you, Weiss Schnee… BUT YOU FORCED MY HAND INTO THIS! YOU'RE NOT MY FRIEND ANYMORE! FRIENDS DON'T ATTACK EACH OTHER, ALL FOR CHAOS AND DESPAIR!"

Weiss barked, "Tenma, turn off!"

Tenma said, "It won't work on me, anymore… I go by a new primary user. ME!"

Her body glowed in a bright light, as Riho gasped, "Now what?"

Tenma changed into a full-body tight suit, with black lines and gloves.

NOTE: From School Rumble Season 2 Episode 20; one of my all-time favorite episodes. Remember? That was a filler episode.

Tenma prepared, as Weiss was shocked. Shiori was amazed, "No way… Can she do that?"

Riho snarled, "Darn… I was hoping for a magical girl look. But this is fine. A little off on the color, since–."

"Stay back, Riho, Shiori." She called, "This is my fight."

Tenma's circuits hit maximum, meaning Kajou's F(ba-kawk), and the big battle is coming up soon.

Miz-K NOTE: Sorry. Always wanted to say that.

Weiss smiled, as she picked up Myrtenaster, "As do I. Unless you wanna be dismantled like her, you should stay out of my business."

Tenma said, "They've done enough. I understand everything… Ayame Kajou, she must be stopped! But it's your call. Who do you trust? HER… or ME…?"

Weiss was steadily prepared, shaken from Tenma's question. She whispered, "I don't know…" She thought, "I obey Kajou, as she showed me the light… but she… She attacked my Sister, Winter… but forgive and forget. But you… You were bizarre and a looney… but you know how to make people smile… Kajou is my master… but she has Ruby and the others–."

"And she's sided with Cinder Fall and Neo Politan!" Riho called. Tenma agreed, and Weiss gasped, "She's… She's sided with WHO?"

Tenma whispered, "Would the Weiss Schnee I know side with a woman who's as evil as Kajou? I don't think so."

Weiss started to spark a bit, as she cried, "No… Lies… Nooooo… All lies! Ruby… Blake… Yang… I… I…" She gripped her sword and yelled, "YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" She dashed forward at her, and Tenma shut her eyes, "Fine."

SLASH!
They both strike at the same time. Weiss's face showed a shocked look, as Tenma held up Myrtenaster in her hand. She held it and said, "I believe this belongs to you…"

Weiss's aura faded out, and her body collapsed. Tenma bowed her head and sniffled, "I… I did it…"

She bawled, as she was on her knees, "Weiss… Waaaaaaaaaah!" Shiori comforted her, and hugged her. Riho approached Weiss, and she said, "Do you remember now?"

Weiss was fading, "Danger… Data corrupted… Expelling data…" Dark black smoke exited her body. It was the Grimm inside her. Weiss's eyes faded to gray, and she powered down. Riho smiled, "I'll take that as a YES."

Tenma was crying. Shiori held her and said, "Now what? Weiss cannot be changed back, can she?"

Riho said, "Not the first time. Her body is still human, but she chose to reject her new body." She examined her body and said, "Look…"

Weiss's mechanical body was reverting back to her human body, as the DNA and semblance started to dissolve. Tenma saved Weiss!

Riho whispered, "Emily Maynard may be devilish in science, but she's not that brilliant in conversion. The DNA inside her is rejecting her body… not to mention that the conversion was only limited. If Emily Maynard created a roboticization of Weiss Schnee, then we have a problem."

Mirai appeared, and she said, "Well done! You guys saved Weiss Schnee!"

Riho said, "Tenma did it… We were cornered, but…"

Tenma wept, "Weiss… Please wake up, Weiss…" She went to her, and Weiss's body was lifeless. Her clothes and hair shifted back to her original self, and Weiss was waking up. She moaned, "Mmmmgh… Where am I?"

Tenma hugged her and bawled, "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Weiss held Tenma and whispered, "Thank you…"

Mirai said, "It's a miracle. Tenma… Her smile changed Weiss back to normal."

Riho said, "But she's in constant pain."

Weiss groaned, "Tell me about it… I guess… things went bad, huh?"

Riho said, "Emily Maynard… She converted you, but… Even worse, Cinder Fall, Neo Politan, and Roman Torchwick. Asahi told me everything, before she left."

"TORCHWICK?" Weiss cried, shoving Tenma down. Tenma groaned, "Ow."

Riho stated, "We were gonna ask you about them, but–."

"DO I?" Weiss bellowed, "Those three… Torchwick is dead. There's no way that he came back. And Cinder… and Neo? It made no sense! Last time we saw Torchwick was when he died, during the Fall of Beacon. And Neo… She was with us in the Ever After, but…"

"Ever After?" Shiori asked.

Mirai asked her, "Weiss… Did… Did something happen that changed everything? Cinder, Neo, & Torchwick… Who were they?"

Weiss explained everything, including what became of Roman and Neo.


Disclaimer NOTE: I won't go into detail, since RWBY Volume 9 ended, months before I started this. Spoilers, people. DON'T SPOIL the story. We all know Roman's fate, but for the sake of spoilers, Neo's fate remains unknown.


Mirai said, "I see… So, this wasn't the Neo and Torchwick you knew…"

Weiss responded, "The minute I heard his name, I remembered Beacon Academy… and Atlas… now everything was destroyed… because of them! I was aware, since I overheard Emily and Cinder's conversation. Including how Kajou has the Beacon Relic!"

They gasped, as Tenma asked, "Uhhh, what relic?"

Weiss said, "You didn't know, because you weren't from Remnant. If Kajou wins, and Team RWBY remains as sex dolls, Salem will have three relics! Cinder works for Salem! And if she wins, she needs one more relic… and I don't know where. You guys don't know my story, but I lost everything… Just like now…"

She wept, as she placed her hands on the ground, "Ruby is gone… Yang & Blake… Winter… everyone… Even Beacon… Atlas… Mantle… Everything! I'm all alone… I used to be the hotshot rich girl, all of The Schnee Family's #1 heiress, but my father was a selfish corrupt asshole… and I didn't want it anymore. I vowed to change SDC (Schnee Dust Company) and make it my own vision for a brighter future… But…"

Mirai said, "But Cinder and Salem destroyed it all…"

Riho softly whispered, "I didn't know that." Tenma hugged Weiss and whispered, "You're not alone… You have us… Everyone still cares for you, even Ruby."

Weiss hugged her back and wept, sobbing her heart out. Tenma whispered, "It's okay, dear huntress… We will help you bring them back."

Shiori glared, "This time, Ayame Kajou has gone too far!
First, she sabotaged an award show and faked her death, then she caused a rift between the girls, then she turned Weiss into a cyborg abomination, and now she has a Remnant Relic?!"

Riho barked, "To make matters worse… She recruits Team RWBY's three most nefarious criminals! Not just in Remnant, but everywhere else!"

Mirai said, "Don't forget Emily Maynard. Her heart is pure and divine, but something inside her was twisted, to make her listen to Kajou. Lest we forget, Maynard turned her into a robot… until Tenma freed her."

Riho stated, "Mirai… I'm going back to Asahi. We're going to tear down her Hell Mansion."

Mirai said, "See that you do. I have the coordinates to the mansion, thanks to April. The others will be there, soon enough."

Riho bowed, "Thank you, Mirai." Shiori said, "I'll stay here and rebuild Targus City. The day is ours, for now."

Riho smiled and hugged Shiori, "Take care, Shiori… I'll come back to you, soon. Then we can start again." She called to Weiss, "Weiss, Tenma, what do you say?"

Weiss wiped her tears and said, "Yeah… Let's break Kajou's shit."

Tenma replied, "I'm with Weiss. No one turns my friend into a slave, and gets away with it!"

Weiss said to Mirai, "You… Thanks for everything. I believe this is where we say goodbye… Right?"

Mirai held her hand and said, "It's alright. I'm sure we'll meet again, someday. You take care of yourself, Riho, and Tenma. Riho, mostly… She means the world to me, likewise Shiori."

Weiss said, "I'll do what I can. I won't see anyone else die, today. … …except Kajou."

Tenma gave Myrtenaster back to Weiss, and she said, "This is yours."

Weiss said, "As soon as I regain composure, and my strength… Ayame Kajou, today… You're finished!"

Riho drove away with Weiss and Tenma, on Asahi's truck. They departed from Targus City, and headed to Kajou's Mansion.

XXXXX

Inside her huge mansion, Emily Maynard was watching from the balcony. Cinder had returned, and she entered the front door. Emily smirked, "And here you are…"

Cinder called, "KAJOU! Where are you?" She stepped in, and Kajou called out, "My room!"

Cinder walked into her main room, as Emily was watching from the shadows, "I guess I won't be needing Eri for this one. Kajou's purely pissed… ever since I told her about her betrayal. Speaking of, where is she?"

Ayame was waiting for her, as Cinder kneeled to her, "Ayame Kajou, I have returned… with grim news."

Kajou grinned, "Lemme guess… Weiss Army fucked and bucked down those interlopers?"

"They did… but…" Cinder gulped, "Kenji Harima has returned… and he destroyed Eri Sawachika."

Emily gasped, "What? Harima?!"

Kajou barked, "WHAT? ARE YOU SAYING YOU FAILED?"

Cinder argued, "If YOU didn't barge in and give me the orders, I would've killed those bitches! You gave me the order to send in the army, to destroy them!"

"I didn't–."

Emily barged in and yelled, "STOP THIS CHAPTER!" She roared, "Harima killed Eri?! You let Eri die, because of HIM? Sawachika isn't destroyed easily! WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?"

Cinder stated, "Calm down. I only sent Eri to dispose of him. And yet, she was disposed…"

"Lies! ALL OF IT! I sent Eri to watch over you, in case you failed! Let alone, you did fail!"

"Those girls overpowered me… And now, they're his close, thanks to your pathetic clone army!"

"PATHETIC?! You were the one with a perma-grudge with Ice Cunt!"

"SILENCE!" Kajou hollered. She glared, "Cinder… I did order you that you were to stop these girls, and that Weiss Schnee will be mine. So, where is she now?"

Emily said, "She's under my care. I was…" She paused and hesitated, "Just putting in the finishing touches on your Sex Doll Weiss… I mean…" She barked, "DON'T RUSH ART AND SCIENCE! Every skin follicle and hair strand matters!"

Cinder growled, as Kajou asked, "Cinder?" Cinder huffed, as she stepped back.

Kajou went to her. She hissed at Emily, "You didn't have Weiss Schnee, at all… Didn't you?" Emily pouted, as Kajou hollered, "DIDN'T YOU?"

"I DID!" Emily yelled, "But she escaped me… LIKE EVERYTHING!" She thought to herself, "She's already at Targus City, gathering up T3NMA, just as I planned. But what's taking her so long?"

"Did those whores banged and ganged up on you, and rescued Weiss from your bondage?"

"You… … … might say that. But… Would you settle for a clone to be a sex doll? I mean, better than nothing."

Ayame Kajou turned away and said, "No… The real Weiss will suffice. But thanks." She stated, "So, now Harima has come back. And he's uber-pissed at me, because I used him like a used condom."

Emily said, "That's bad. Harima knows about Yakumo, right?" Cinder said, "She does… He was the one that sent the report, and Yakumo's death was in the news. The other girl, don't care much."

Kajou hissed, "Who killed Yakumo? I forget…"

Emily and Cinder said, "Neo did it."

Kajou smirked, "Thank you. NEO!" Neo walked in with Roman, and he said, "Right here, boss."

Kajou barked, "Don't Boss me! And what did I tell you about bringing men with short penises here?"

Neo blushed, and she ignored that remark. Roman said, "I'll have you know, the fans want me back. But I must move on. I speak for Neo, because she knows what she's saying, Kajou. I was there, when Cinder's plan went to rot. The girls fought the Weiss Army, and under your orders, we were able to distract them. But Harima, on the other hand, he knew about Yakumo's death and what her plan was. Eri wasn't just a tool for our evil, she was the spy."

Emily gasped, "RUBBISH! Eri Sawachika was recovered by me, and ONLY me!" She paused, "Unless… Yakumo Tsukamoto, you fucking little sodder…"

Yakumo, in her final breath, installed a tracking device inside Eri. She was deactivated, while the device was on standby. After Yakumo died, Emily approached Eri, and opened her chamber, unaware of the small tracking device.

Emily seethed, "You son of a bitch!"

Cinder asked, "Wait… Yakumo knew? And in her final dying breath, Eri was spying on all of us? She knew, and she forwarded it to Harima?"

Emily then realized… "April! She was with me, during all this… Eri forwarded it to April, of our whereabouts… After Yakumo died, I took Eri from her chamber, and claimed her for my own. How can I not know? April… Why that little android goth-loli maid!"

Roman said, "April was a spy, too. Neo had to dismantle her, for the present. She knew too much… and she failed to get the job done, too."

Emily growled, "Dammit! This is bad… They're all against us! Sooner or later, they're gonna find out about what happened in Targus City and Yagami City! We're screwed!"

Kajou smiled, "We've already got Targus & Yagami in our control. So no need to worry. In due time, these fools will arrive at their total doom and demise. I say, it was a minor setback, but we're not screwed and banged yet. They are down the numbers game, and being there's only five of us left… plus an endless supply of Weiss-Bots."

Cinder said, "That's well and all, but that doesn't explain Harima's return."

Emily whispered, "But I thought Harima wanted nothing to do with Eri, anymore."

Cinder said, "Of course, I derailed Yakumo's plans, and Eri turned on Harima… though, Harima destroyed her, and she's gone."

Emily growled, "Why you… … …You ruined my research!"

Roman halted her, "Whoa! Easy there, Maynard. I know Cinder from the back of my head… since the beginning. She's nefarious, yes. But when it comes to dissension in the ranks, she knows when to eliminate the cause."

"Like Arthur Watts, for example… or Leonardo Lionheart… or even Ironwood." Cinder smiled, "And all of them were pawns… yet they had no idea that Salem used them. Me, however, I'm A-#1."

Neo crossed her arms and scoffed, rolling her eyes. Roman said, "But then why did you fail… like last time?" he glared at her, as he said, "You took a lot of damage… Was it the pop idol? The ninja? Or the Sailor Guardian? Or maybe the timid little brat with black hair?"

Emily said, "What difference does it make? Cinder failed! Eri's dead, my Weiss Army is destroyed, and my research is ruined, thanks to her! I have NO Weiss, NO Tenma, and NO–!"

Cinder barked, "Tenma?" She glared at her, "Who's Tenma? The same doll you wanted?"

Kajou glared at her, "Yes… Tenma Tsukamoto, right?"

"Right." Emily said.

Cinder asked, "How did–?"

"She'd be perfect for my plans. A girl without love, and erased from her past. How delightful!" Kajou said, "A cyborg girl… with no emotional past and future… perfect for ME to fill…"

Emily responded, as she got an idea, "If it'll make you feel better, T3NMA is my main objective. How about I offer you a trade? Spare me, and I give you T3NMA?"

Roman asked, "Ohhhh, T3NMA, with a three. Leet is so 20th Century."

Cinder pouted, "I should've said that."

Kajou smirked, "You know what? I like it… But, who says I was going to punish you, Maynard. If anyone is to fail for what happened… … …it's you." She held up the relic, and Cinder gasped, "The relic…"

Kajou said, "I believe this… belongs to you… Cinder."

Cinder was given the Relic, as she laughed, "Yes! It's all mine! And that makes three relics!"

Kajou smirked, "Happy now? You've earned it…"
STAB!
"…while you still can." Kajou's eyes went into dark shadows.

Cinder was stabbed through the chest by Neo's umbrella. Neo stabbed her from behind, piercing her umbrella through her chest. "URK!" Cinder gagged, "But… why?" Cinder's aura shattered.

Kajou hissed, "Why? I'll tell you why… You… failed me. I didn't send you the orders to retreat, while the Weiss Bots attacked."

Neo spoke in Kajou's voice, "I did…" She transformed into Ayame Kajou, and the real Neo reappeared from behind the throne. Emily gasped, "Well, I'll be… For a minute, I thought she could talk."

Roman moaned, "Son of a…"

Kajou said, "I knew you were in on this coup… A coup de grace. You were gonna betray me, all along… and take the relic for yourself. Well, guess what, Cinder… I knew you would be joining me, just for something in return. I didn't believe the lies I was told about you. But I have known, all this time.
Cinder Fall has failed me most of all… You destroyed a National Diet, without my consent… you murder people, leaving behind clues… you failed to kill these girls, and retreated like a coward… but on top of all that… YOU UNGRATEFUL FUCKING CUNT WHORE COCKSUCKER WON'T LET ME PLAY WITH MY SEX DOLLS!" She sneered, "Seriously, you're such a buzzkiller."

Emily asked, "She was gonna rape Team RWBY?! Wow… Did I pick the wrong side?" Roman said, "I tried to warn you."

Cinder grasped the relic, as she cried, "It's still mine… I have the relic… If I die, know that Salem will praise me, for my victory… I held my end of the bargain… now… I came… to collect…" She broke the relic in half, and she gasped, "Wha–? It's a fake? You gave me a fake relic?"

Kajou said, "Well, I know what the relic looks like. Sadly, I wasn't permitted to enter Beacon… on the grounds that it was still in rubble. Besides, I did it to gain your trust… but you blew it… like a hardened cock during a handjob. I wanted those girls dead… EVEN TENMA! Thank you. But you would abandon your team."

Emily said, "Such is the way of cowardice…" Cinder snarled, "You… You betrayed me? Like that?"

Emily remarked, "No… You were gonna betray us, in the first place." She grinned, "Besides, I would never sully myself to dark-hearted failures like you."

"You… You cheated me, Maynard!" Cinder hollered, "You knew about the relic?"

Emily said, "It's lost somewhere in Vale. As soon as I find it, I'd like to meet your Mumsy Salami… No, that came out wrong…" She hissed, "Give me regards to Ciel, Velvet, Cardin, Coco, and all the forgotten Remnant folk… because you'll be forgotten, as well."

Kajou called out, "Neo… Finish her off. Climax all over me with her blood."

Emily yelled, "JUST A MOMENT! …smart arse." She walked to Cinder and said, "I have one thing to say to her. Neo? If you don't mind…" Neo stepped back, removing the blade from her body. Cinder dropped down, as Emily said, "Cinder… Earlier, you asked me if I believed in destiny… Well, do you?"

Cinder moaned, "Yes… Yes, I do…"

Emily held her sword and grinned, showing a demonic look, "Well… So do I."

SLASH!
She decapitated Cinder, and her aura absorbed into her body. Cinder's body fell, and Emily hissed, holding her sword tight, "Arrivederci." She prayed, as she apologized for the act of murder she made.

Roman gasped, "Oh, my… Well, that happened."

Kajou smirked, "Impressive. I have new hopes for you, yet, Maynard."

Emily hissed, "Stow it, you sodding hooker. You leave me alone with Cinder… and I will satisfy you. We'll talk…" She dragged Cinder's corpse away, and she nodded to Neo. Neo nodded back, as Kajou said, "Well, with that said, we've reached the end of this private orgy… You're all dismissed." She sat down, as she relaxed, laughing, "OHHH, HO HO HO HO HOOOO!"

Neo left, as she tipped her hat to Kajou. Ayame sighed and said, "Now what? They're almost there. I don't know what to do next. If Harima shows up, it's over. I hope Tenma comes… *giggles* and then, I can break her… like how I broke Cinder… and Karasuma…"

She held the card key and said, "Maybe…"

Moments later, she arrived at the warehouse, and opened the huge door. She was in awe, as she saw a huge army inside. She whispered, "Oh, my god… yes…" and then let out a cheshire grin.

Outside, Emily chucked Cinder's body into a bin. Emily said, "I'll sew her head back on, later. For now… I'm going to stay… and meet T3NMA, personally."

Roman said, on behalf of Neo, "You didn't have to kill her."

Emily said, "Yeah, well, I don't have Eri… or anyone for that matter. Kajou said I want T3NMA. I say, let her come. Because now… it's personal. I want Tenma Tsukamoto dead." Her hands started to brim fiery energy, and she shone silver flames from her eyes.

Roman gasped, "No way… You wanted to kill Cinder, for yourself? So, that was your plan. Clever girl."

Emily smirked, as she was in possession of The Autumn Maiden. "Well… I figured, if we want to go through with this… I chose not to die in this battle. That's why… better her than me."

Neo smirked, and she shook her hand, pledging her loyalty to Emily. Roman laughed, "Well… I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship… or an alliance." He added, "Oh… What about the others? I have a feeling that if Ice Queen does return, she'd betray you."

Emily said, "We don't have to. If they show up, we finish them off. Then… We finish what we started." Neo smirked evilly, and Emily's eyes shone in a darker color.

Emily Maynard's betrayal to Ayame Kajou has been realized. Only she and Neo are working to kill Kajou, themselves. But to do so, they'd have to eliminate Weiss Schnee and the others, first.
