Chapter 49:Shadow War Part 2

It was queit on the dunes of vacou right now nothing was happening at first. But something was right now as this quiet day this quiet night it didn't matter. Right now one thing was for certain right now for the kingdom of vacou right now their was something going on for the kingdom of vacou

Right now an all out war could be heard with gunfire and screaming with several war crys being heard right now. Several soilders, huntsman, huntress where fighting their one true enemy grimm. Both side where fighting for their own pruspoes and hopes right now.

Rushing toward their where salem forces as grimm roared for their war cry. With talon jeeps and tanks driving forward with a tank firing a shell off as it went flying hitting some of the soldiers and huntsman right now. But they had their own tanks as an atlas tank crew loaded a shell in

Then they gave the gunner the all clear as the gunner lined their shot up before firing it off. The tank shell went flying hitting its intended target blowing it up to pieces as the resulting expsloion killed a few grimm along the way right now. With them cheering for a job well done. But the grimm and the warriors of salem where all running forward striking their blades with each other as gunfire rang out through the entire battlefield right now

No one was safe as grimm came in the hundred but with some superior fire power they shot them down. While the hybrids of salem tried to overwhelm them as they proved to be quite troubling right now

But swinging her scythe into a grimm cutting the head clean off was ruby. Who in a swift motion dodging a grimm trying to pounce on her. Then swung her scythe forward cleaving them into two as they turned into dust.

By her side was her partner as weiss quickly summoned several different types of glyphs ranging from ice, fire, gravity and wind. Firing them all of them off she fired a dense barrage of elementally attacks killing any grimm and injurying any nearby talon and unseen eyes soldiers right now

A operative swung their sword at her but dodging it she reeled her leg back spin kicking their head knocking them to the ground. As she immediately drove her sword into the ground beginning to summon her arma gigas

As the grimm saw this trying to stop her but not letting this happen was blake and yang. As blake quickly summoned two fiery red clones and one icy clone. Pointing forward they ran forward to deal with their enemies as yang smashed her fist together firing her gauneltns off propeling herself forward into the fight right now

As she went airborne flicking her wrist back firing her guanlents off again. She came crashing down into a swarm of grimm smashing a crater into the ground as a uras roared swiping at her with her raising her arms to block it

Yang slide back a little smiling before gesturing the grimm to come and get some the uras roared ready to swipe at her again. But running in where their own pack of uras colored white roaring fightings it brehtern as she scoffed

"The grimm are taking my glory now great!"she said annoyed right now

With both of blake fires clone leading a king tajtu around in a circle with its two heads. Both heads hissed as they soon came incontact with the clones as both leaped into the opposite heads mouth. Closing them the grimm expected a tasty meal but it felt a burning sensitization in its throat hissing and crying out in immense pain right now

As the arma gigas was summon raising its mihty sword bringing it down ontop of the two snakes head. The blade made contact cleaving it in two killing it with weiss pointing her sword forward

"Destory those tanks!"she ordered as the summon followed its mistress orders

Walking over to some rocks it picked them up before lfiitng them high enough to get a few tanks attention. As one was taking aim at it viewing it as a threat. Suddnely from above something came by stepping on the tank that being the wyvern known as glory

The grimm roared as it crushed the tank under it grasp with the summon throwing a rock into one of the tanks as the crew quickly got out running for their lives as the rock desotyred their tank on impact. Glory roared picking up the other tank with her claws flying off in the air before dropping off presumably killing the crew

Quickly team RWBY regrouped going back to one of the nearby trenches. In it was some familiar faces in the form of bashira and naca who where firing at the approaching grimm with the soilders and milta assisting them right now

"Oh hey their you guys are…wondering where you went""bashirsa said firing off a full clip before ejecting it then reloaidng it

"Well where busy fighting for our lives out their"yang said quickly reloaidng her gaunlents cokcing her fist back.

"Tell that to these guys! Screw you i had a bet that you'd attack next week!"naca shouted firing off her hand cannon

Ruby panted for a moment checking her sniper seeing it was a full clip.

"Does anyone need assistance on the battlefield right now?"ruby asked pressing her ear piece as their was quiet for a moment

"We might need help! Spotted a horde of goliaths coming our way we need backup!"marrow shouted from the ear piece as ruby shared a look with her sister nodding

"Blake, weiss watch each others backs where going to assist them"ruby said

"Got it! Be safe you two!"weiss called out as they nodded running off with the two now assisting naca and bashira on defending their current positions

Meanwhile where marrow was he was taking cover with the spartans and soldiers right now. They where using a mounted machine gun turret firing at swarms of grimm that where mowed down by the machine gun fire

Assitng him where his two sqaudmates along with mariana leading the charge issuing out orders to the nearby atlas soldiers and huntsman with them. As their was also neon, flynt, leah and persia

Flynt summoned his clones firing off streams of sound waves colored red desotrying some grimm in his way.

While neon skated forward swinging her nunchunks all over the place before whackign a grimm back sending it flying into some soldier who opened fire tearing it shreds

Persia snapped her fingers pinning down a couple goliaths grunting

"Now!"persia called out to elm who pulled her rocket launcher out. Taking aim she pressed the trigger firing it off as rockers wnet flying forward straight into the two goliths blwoing them up leaving nothing in their path as she panted for a moment

"Goliaths are down! Keep focusing fire on the megaliath!"mariana ordered as the soldiers opened fire onto the apprachign golaiths

Neon spritned back into the trench they where at with gunfire ringing out from all over the place right now as she gagged a little ready to puke from all the running and spinning shes been doing

"Theirs so many of them! This is insane!"she shouted as fylnt whipped the sweat from his brow

"Yeah! But hot dam are we lucky to have some backup!"he called out with grinch firing off a few rounds doming a soilder in the head killing them right now. With ramizerz, star, bonnet and a few spartans assisting them as cynthia dove to the side doging a strike from a operative

The operative kept swinging at her several times but she kept doding it keeping an eye on their moves. Then as they swung at her again narrowing her gaze in a swift motion the grabbed their neck before swiftly snapping their neck dropping their corpse.

Gunfire came at her hitting her aura slightly with her diving for a assault rifle. Then taking pot shots she fired off a few shot naiiling a couple soilders in the head but her rifle clipped menaing it was out.

A soidler laughed"time to die vermin"he said but suddnely a knife was thrown into his head as he fell to the ground dead.

Running over lifting her to her two feet was miller as she laughed

"Guess your my bodyguard"cynthia said as he helped her down into the trench as she quickly got handed a assault rifle and a pouch of ammo. Miller cokced a rifle hammer back reloading it qucikly

"Sort of. I gotta live this dam thing for my little girl you know"miller said as soon enough a swarm of red rose petals came down as emerging was yang and ruby

"You called for backup?"yang aksed with neon smiling to see her

"Heck yeah! Go punch the giant elephant!"She cheered but yang eyed her sister who nodded

"I'll clear a small swarm of them out…cover me"ruby said as they knew what she was doing. Getting in a defense positon they took charge as ruby clsoed her eyes peeking over seeing the grimm tearing through some of the barbed wire they layed with the soldiers help

Focusing on her eyes right now ruby quickly tapped into her eyes that light up in a bright light right now. Immediately a small section of the battlefield got covered in a bright light right now

As the bright light died down slowly it revealed that hundres of grimm where turned into stone. With several soldiers and cutlist on the ground wirhteirng and crying out in immense pain as they where grimm hybrid with marrow howling to the skies right now

"Hell yeah kid! Whoa! Nice fucking job!"marrow cheered loudly as ruby smiled panting just a little as yang placed a hand on her shoulder

"Save it for the more serous problems got it baby sis"yang said

"God it i–"She was stopped as suddenly something happened. Something hit ruby in the shoulder knocking her to the ground as she cried out in pain

Looking down they saw a combat knife was dug into her shoulder with harritet looking ahead at the culprit

That being x-3 who took out both his swords and by his side was x-9 who cracked her neck slamming her fist together

"Oh great another creepy assassin….blow her up"bonnet said but elm saw how close they where bringing her hammer out at the ready

"Were going to have to get up close and personally with this one right now"elm said as her and hairett nodded. Leah rushed over carefully pulling the knife out of ruby shoulder as blood spurted. With her tearing off a piece of her shirt wrapping it around her shoulder to stop the bleeding

"You good?"leah asked as ruby nodded

"I'm okay….guess we came at a good time"ruby said with yang hoping out of the trench with harittet by her side glaring at x-3 who pointed his swords at them

"Primary target found. Execute any silver eyes and bring their corpse back to salem as trophies"x-3 said as hariett scoffed switching her stance to an offensive one

"Hell no i babysat these kids. Come at me you creepy little freak lets fucking dance"hairett said as x-3 growled dahsing forward swinging at her several times to cut her down. But she dodged it in blinding speeds before kick flipping him back launching him back

With x-9 staring down elm who presented her hammer cracking her neck loudly. With mariana and marrow by her side staring the brute of a women down

"Now who do we have here?"mariana asked as x-9 stared at them

"Combat designation x-9. Ace operatives are marked as high value targets by scar watts for associated with subject omega. "She said as marrow rolled his eyes

"Man that kids is obsessive…hey lets have some fun loser gonna be dead"marrow taunted as they prepared for a brawl with the assassin right now

Meanwhile in another part of the batleifled right now where some of the faunus royal guard where. They where holding their own ground fighting off swarms of grimm and talon soldiers right now. With packs of sabyrs assiting them along with gravekeepers right now

As spritnign forward was fin who cut his way easily through some grimm. Then he grabbed a husk snapping it neck in quick succession. Then he dodged a strike froma berignal gull before leaping upward burying his toes into its skull piercing it as it cried out in utter pain

Then fin lifted his hands up to the air"set!"he called out as flying over was mars reaching his hands down

"Ready!"mars called out grabbing fin by his forearms using the momentum to dig him out. As he dug him out the berginal head came flying off with its spinel cord killing it as it fell to the ground turning into dust dead

The two quickly flew back over as team DAND was together fighting some grimm right now. By their side was sun, sombra, onxyia, dakota, adam along with trifa.

With nixing firing off a quick succession of arrows as she pulled her bow string back. Then fired off a arrow as it went soaring through the air. With it narrowly hitting ambroise in the head but it grazed his head as the arrow went straight into a grimm skull killing it on impact

With amrbsie tag teaming some grimm with vergil right now who was in his animal form. As the man slashed his claws forward cutting into a grimm with ambrosie vaulting over him drop kicking the same grimm back killing it. Another one struck at the lovebiards which vergil saw

"Watch out!"he called out as the two leaped out of the way seeing it was a repear. The repear roared as the two nodded to each other tag teeming it

Ambroise twilred his staff whacking the grimm a few times in the legs to get its attention. It worked with the grimm screechign swinging its large claws at him trying to kill him. But the owl faunus was much quicker dodging it as vergil switched to his aerial form

Planting his feet he flapped his wings taking to the skies drawing out his swords before pressing the triggers on them. A loud gunshot rang out as he zoomed straight through the grimm cleaving its head off its shoulder killing it with it turning to dust as amborise laughed in joy

"Nice hit vergy!"amrboise called out as vergil molted his armor off panting swaying side to side almost falling as close by was declan catching his growling

"He needs a boost anyone got what the doc gave us?!"declan called out holding his sword out

Sun swung his staff whacking a husk head clean off its shoulder. Spinning his staff into its nuchuku form. Twirling and spinning it around he fired off a swell of fire dust shot killing them in quick succession. But dug into his pouch pulling a syringe out

"Heads up!"he called out tossing it as declan caught it jamming it into vergil chest as he went wide eyed feeling a new course of vigor but growled as that hurt

"You could have injected it into my dam neck asshole!"vergil shouted as declan smirked

"Wah wah i got injected in the neck shut up cousin"mars said in his animal form jumping from side to side. Vergil gorlwed standing up actiivng his protector form.

A bright blue organic material covered his bodie that was thick in material. But it crawled up his skin quickly making him slightly in size with it looking like rocks where on his bodie. But as it covered his face a similar mask like his aerial form formed with him smacking his fist together

Close by was his father and brother as dante was fighting some grimm with his daughters right now. With the triplet tag teamming a manticore as they all jammed their blade arms into it stabbing it to death killing it

With razputin laughing in his animal form smacking his fist together

"Seems my other son isn't a pansy after all!"razputin cheered as vergil scoffed

"Well at least you aint making homo jokes anymore….now lets tear a grimm apart"Vergil said with declan eyeing one right now that being a cyclops as he whistles to the two

"How about big and ugly you think you can take him!"declan called out as the two stared at the grimm with dante sliding over humming

"You two take low i got high?"dante asked

"Sounds like a plan go!"vergil shotued as him and his father ran forward. Dante took to the skies as the cyclops noticed him swatting at him to try and hit him out of the sky right now. But it was unsuccessful as he kept doging all its hit that were very predictable right now.

With the cyclops distracted razptuin growled leaning into it as he threw his fist back. With vergil micking his father as the two target was its ankles. Throwing their fist in unison they punched the grimm in the ankle with a loud crack being heard right now. As the cyclops roared falling to one knee staring down at the prey before it

The grimm lifted its makeshift club up bringing it down as the two quickly ran out of the way. Once he club made contact with the ground a large crater appeared as it pulled the club up expecting smashed up tiny humans but saw nothing to its confusion

Dante flew around eyeing its neck flying straight for its weakspot. Noticng this the grimm swatted him as it made contact. This made dante go flying down onto the ground impacgint it hard creating a large dust cloud as it caught razputins attention

"My son!"razputin cried in worry with him and vergil running over. Already over their was ambroise who saw some talon soldiers approaching his broher in law

Amrbose growled"Get away from him scumbags!"he shouted leaping forward swinging his staff into one knocking them back a little. As the second fired into him a couple time with one bullet piericng his gut as it was anti aura metal

Growling the owl faunus headbutted the soldier down to the ground. Lifitng his staff he cracked them hard in the skull with a loud crack being heard as they went limp. The the first one tried to reach for a pistol but ambroise wrapped his staff around their neck choking them right now

With enough effort he pulled their neck so far back he snapped their neck as they fell to the ground face first dead. With him leaping into the hole finding dante cltuhcing his leg as the bone was piercing out of his skin as he cried out in visible pain

"Dammit…dammit…ohhh this hurts"dante cried as amrboise hoisted him to his two feet wrapping his arm around his shoulder

"I got you man. I got you aint letting my husband ugly brother die"ambroise joked making him laugh

"We share a face…your kissing me asshole…..i think i'm gay now"dante joked to lighten the mood as razputin rushed over in relief nodding to the owl faunus appreciating it right now as they guided dante quickly to the others

Right now xander was doing his best with ross who had a shotgun strapped to his back treating their wounded. A faunus cried in pain with a bullet wound as ross growled

"It'll hurt but we have you your lucky it went through clean"ross said as xander tore out a bottle of idoine quickly pouring it on a rag. Then he pressed it onto their wound making the faunus grunt as he quickly repeated it with the other side

"Wounds sealed!"he shouted over the gunfire as ross lifted him up wrapping gauze around him. With razputin putting dante down as xander went wide eyed seeing his leg

"Crap we gotta get him to the medical hut for treatment"xander said

"Too far leave him here we can treat him."ross replied firmly as they got to work on him. Adam was slicing his way through soldiers and grimm alike right now

As he swung his sword into a talon soldier chest stunning them before driving it straight through tearing his sword out coating it in blood. Then he dodged a strike from a nearby operative trying to cut him down but swiftly he slashed forward as the operative stood motionally before falling to the ground missing their head as he cut it off

Quickly he dodged another grimm trying to cut him down as he blocked it with his sword as it glowed bright right building up damage. With him quickly killing the grimm eyeing the cyclops who was still grounded

"We need to kill that thing now!"adam called out as dakota was close by sporting a pair of heavy gaunlents colored black right now. These where her weapons as she swung foward into a beowulf launching it into onxyia path who spun her glaive slicing it in half killing it panting

"Where open to suggestion tarrus!"onxyia called out as he eyed dakota smirking

"Hit me!"he called out to her confusion

"Why!?"dakota asked as he smirked at her

"Do it maybe prove to me you and your girlfriends aren't massive sluts"adam taunted which made her stare at him. As like yang this girl had a temper problem with dakota growling running forward swinging hard forward as he raised his sword blocking it as it glowed bright red with him smiling

As she noticed it glaring at him"Screw you buddie! I need to punch something to make me calm now!"she shotued as he laughed

"Sorry! I'm off to kill that!"he shouted running for the cyclops which trifa noticed groaning

"Ohhhhh your smart and dumb tarrus!"trifa said

As adam sprint forward doding the strikes from nearby grimm right now slashing them as they stood in his way. Their where too many to count but he slide underneath the cyclops massive leg as it swung at nearby bullheads trying to take it down as the hatches where opened as someone fired a rocket into it as it roared out in pain

Immediately he activated his semblance as the world around him went red. Shooting upwards he went straight through the grimm cleaving it upwards right now as the cyclops stood their stunned as he reached the top. Growling he roared firing a shot off his katana coming back down going striahgt through it

Seeing this mars flew upwards as the grimm turned to dust with adam falling through the sky right now as he was flying down fast. But soon enough his savior came catching him in the air as he opened his one eye seeing mars who nodded

"Got yah kid! Heard you got a wedding to have!"mars shotued as adam smiled as the two landed on the ground with declan laughing right now

"Risky as hell ohhh i'm glad your on our side my boy"declan said

"The same to you but i–"adam stopped as his nose was plague by something familiar. His eye widden in horror right now as declan had the same scent with his daughter going wide eyed in fear

"Oh no…no…no…come on..i didn't wanna deal with him"onxyia said in fear as dakota looked at her

"Who are you talking about?"dakota asked as screaming could be heard as they followed the source with her flinching

As their was a large spider like grimm right now that looked larger than any of the ones seen before. It had very long spider like legs but the body was strange. It looked more human like than spider but quite larger with the head of the human like grimm being a spider head with eight blinking crimson eyes.

As it was digging its legs into a huntress piercing her chest as she cried out in pain. Becoming annoyed it dug its leg into her skull killing her lifting her up as the spider head began to eat the women face as trifa flinched

"That aint right"trifa said drawing her knife as adam stepped forward narrowing his one eye calling to it

"Ollie!"he called out as the spider like creature dropped the women to the ground turning to them. Before eyeing them seeing who was their as it began to shake making a cracking noise before speaking

"Tarrus…blairrrrrr….traditorrrrrrs"the spider said in a voice similar to ollie right now but more eerie and chilling with xander flinching in fear right now by the sheer sight of him right now

"Thats ollie! Ohhhh dad please kill him with fire"xander said as declan stepped forward drawing his sword softening his gaze sighing

"Its time to be put at ease….lets go"declan said as they prepared to fight the grimm creature formerly known as ollie weaver right now for a brutal brawl.

Meanwhile back with weiss and blake they moved down farther in the trenches now. As naca was in rough shape with her clutching her side right now as bashira wrapped an arm around her as she got shoot in the side by a sniper early

Naca winced"leave me and get back to the fight idiots!"she shouted

As blake dodged a stirke froma culitst before doing something. Driving her sword forward she drove it straight into their neck tearing it out as black blood spurted from their wound as she killed them as she spat on their face

"No! I aint having my best friend become sad right now besides…you owe her a date"blake said as bahsira laughed

"Shes got you their partner"bashira said as naca blushed with a growl. They kept moving right now as weiss watched their backs as they where walking into someone thankfully. That being whitley and some medics along with jazmine and neo. As jazmine was firing off shot upon shot at the apporahcing grimm as they where breaking through their first line already

Jazmine ducked reloading her pistol as a beowulf snarled above her trying to claw her head off. But leaping forward neo jammed her hidden blade into the grimm stabbing it in the head killing it as jazmine sighed in relief

"Thanks!"she thanked

"No problem communicating is much easier than before!"neo replied as close by was kali who was busy fighting against a few talon soldiers

They viewed her to be an easy threat right now but in a quick succesion kali leaned back dodging a strike. Then she pulled her sword back swinging forward into the soldier neck slitting it open as they gasped grasping their neck as they fell down to the ground gurgling on their blood. The second hit her from behind with her growling tossing her weapon ribbion as it swung around their neck

The third soldier swung forward but her ears flicked in time as she leaped up dodging it. As the soldier accidenlty drove it into their comrade head as kali weapon came back piercing their skull as they both fell down dead with her digging her weapon out whipping the blood off of it

"Whoa the cat housewife got move…dammit my side"naca said clutching her side as whiltey rushed over helping lay her on a nearby stretcher with two medics quickly rushing off to get her treatment

"Good work sister. Have you heard from winter yet?"Whitley asked

"No i assume she deeper behind our lines. How are you doing?"weiss said

"Better i've almost been shot three times but carmen has been protecting me"he said as carmen walked over panting whipping sweat off her brow

"Well i need a brethren….how everyone aura?"carmen asked as blake quickly checked her seeing hers was at fifty with weiss at forty seven from all her summoning

"Were both at half but we should see where were needed. Come on"she said as they began to walk but from above a cultist leaped onto whitley as the two tumbled. The cultist tried to stab him in the neck as whiltey held him off but something inside wiess just snapped

"GET AWAY FROM HIM!"wiess shotued running forward as she drove her gunblade forward. With weiss jamming her sword into the cultist throat. The cultist fell off as she took her sword out as they grasped their throat stumbling forward before falling by her feet with blood starting to pool out of their neck

Weiss regrettable looked at her sword flinching seeing blood their right now as they watched it with blake running over as weiss legs gave out as she began to immediately cry on what she just did.

"I..i..i…i….what did i do…what did i do."weiss cried as blake held her close in tears

"Its okay…it okay…breath weisss…deep breats"blake cried as whitley looked horrified but him and carmen shared a look as kali stepped forward. Immediately she walked over picking weiss up to carry her

"Lets head back to the main command tent to regroup. She needs to calm down for a moment we can't do it here"she said as they agreed running with her back to the command tent as weiss cried to herself on what she just did right now.

Meanwhile with may and her group they where busy fighting themslves on the battleifedl right now. As they where pinned down behind some rocks as may peeked up taking aim with her sniper exhaling. Staring through she zeroed in on a griffon scooping up a huntsman to take them off.

But firing off a shot the bullet went flying through the air at alarming speeds. Once it made contact with the skull of the grimm the bullet dug into its skull before shattering it as it head blew up as it slowly flapped it wings before letting the huntsman go who fell to the ground as their aura took the hit

Immediately running over was earl who hoisted them up

"Dam i gotta thank whoever made that shot"the huntsman said as the donkey smiled

"Thank my teammates. Nice shoot zdhnag!"he called out as she nodded continuing to provide cover fire for them. While with them was ren and nora along with her other two teammates as hazel was assisting them along with a small squad of despardos right now

Leading the charge for them was leon who held out dual pistols firing into a few grimm that where coming at him. Narrolwoy dodging a strike from one he pistol whipped the back of their head before aiming at them firing a shot into their head killing it

But what was more tricky where some ak-200 as three of them came at him. With one swinging a sword forward chipping at his aura making him grunt

"I aint in the mood to deal with these dam bots again!"he shouted before placing two barrels onto its head blasting it off. With the other two raising their blades to cut him down but two large fist grabbed the top of their heads.

Those fist belonged to hazel who slammed their heads together desotrying them as spark flew from their chassi and destroyed bodie.

"Thank for the assist big guy"leon thanked

"No problem. Keep moving to the artillery we need to disable it"hazel said as ahead of them where three artillery guns right now. They where ontop of a small mountain range as they barely made it over here but thanks to ren semblance they did. Though it exhausted him alot as he panted firing off a spray of bullets from his machine pistols killing a few grimm

"Okay how are we going to get up their right now?"noaln asked as nora hummed eyeing her hammer smiling before planting it on the ground

"Here comes the nora express!"nora cheered before suddenly grabbing earl and may with one arm confusing them right now for a moment

"Wait what are you doing?"may asked as suddenly nora smiled pressing the trigger. Her hammer fired off a shell launching them upwards to the mountain ledge as both earl and may could be heard screaming right now. They watched this as leon laughed slightly pulling out a grappling hook device

"Better idea hook up kiddios where going up!"leon shouted as he fired the line up as it went flying forward. With the grappling hook landing on the eldge almost missing its target but it hooked onto a rock as a despardo gave it a strong tug securing it

"Lines secured!"they called out as immediately they hooked up to it with ascenders as ren pressed the button shooting him up the line with the others following suit. As they got up their already involved in a fight where the three as earl dodged a strike from a soldier before firiing off his shotgun pistols shattering their aura.

With nora running forward swinging her hammer into them launching them into some others down to the ground. May fired off shots from her sniper providing covering support as they slide behind cover

"Whats the situation?"nolan asked as may ducked from oncoming machine gun fire. As a small machine turret was set up with them continuously firing at them as she growled

"Dam machine gun got us pinned down! We need to get rid of it nora can't land a hit"may replied as hazel stood their for a moment digging into his pouches pulling out two yellow dust shards exhaling before slowly inaling. Before he jammed them into his skin as his veins light up with him growling before roaring smashing his fist together that sparked with electricity

"I'll handle it"hazel said before breaking from cover running forward roaring as the soldiers tried to stop him. But his aura tanked it as hazel roared smashing right through the barricade as he grabbed one soldier lfiting them in the air slamming them onto his knee as they coughed up blood as he killed them

Another two tried to run away from him but he caught them by their heads. Then he began to pressure on their skulls as they both screamed in immense pain. Before he crushed their skulls killing them as he dropped them to the ground.

"Okay noted to not mess with you. Lets plant a charge on these turrets"ophelia said as earl ran forward with a brick of c4 in hand. Then he got to one of the turrets as the despardos quickly cleared the other crews of the cannons right now. With a despdrao motioing their all in the clear

Presing hard on the brick earl onto the metal as he pressed a few buttons setting the explosive. It beeped loudly with a three minute timer as he smiled looking back to them

"Were all set to blow this things let go–"he was stopped as he gasped in immense pain right now. Looking back opehlia eyes widden to see x-8 standing their driving his knifes into the donkey faunus back before tearing them out kicking him to the ground

"NO!"ophelia cried as may and nolan went wide eyed. They immediately rushed to their teammate as x-8 saw them trying to go for them. But a arrow came at him but he narrowly dodged it looking to the source belonging to ren who glared at him

The assassin hoped down twirling his knives at him with nora standing by his side twirling her hammer at the ready staring the assassin down.

"Your going to pay for hurting our friend you freak"nora said as the assassin titled his head at her

"Combat orders are as follow defend cannons from the vermin by blaze and watts. Your marked for elimination"X-8 said pointing his knives at the two as ren narrowed his gaze

"Your not going to hurt her…you'll go through me"Ren said firing off another arrow but experlty x-8 bent backward dodging it now. With him sprinting forward as nora roared swinging her hammer into him to try and knock him off the ledge. But he saw this coming dodging it flipping over her kicking her in the back hard making her stumble

With ren running in kicking his leg forward into x-8 side making them stumble with a small crack being heard. But he immediately slashed and sliced his knives forward cutting into ren aura. As he tried to drive his knife into his left side immedialty ren blocked it with his metal arm as it bounced off it. With him growling throwing his head forehead headbutting them as it hurt with the helmet he had on

X-8 stumbled thought for a moment as nora picked herself up grunting from that hit she got. But staring for the assassin who was stunned she gripped her hammer tight running forward with her hammer swinging hard into their back which made x-8 gasp as he was launched into a wall hard as the assassin picked himself up with the two lover quickly regrouping with each other ready to fight him

As may and the others ran over to earl who layed on the ground as ophelia slide into his view. But their was blood pooling underneath him as she was in complete tears right now cradling his head

"no..no…no please hang on…please hang on…i cna't loose another teammate…i can't lose you"opehlia said on the verge of tears as nolan bent down putting pressure on his wounds as may was pnaicking right now holding her head

Earl was breathing rather slow as he swallowed for a moment"h-hey…you guys gotta get out of here…you gotta get out of here"he said weakly

"no..no we are not leaving you! I am not abandoning another teammate! Your not going to die like roy! Branwz!"may cried trying to pick him up but he shoved her back weakly looking at them then at the cannons right now as the despardo where backing up to their repeal lines

Then he looked over at nora and ren right now who were fighting x-8. As the assassin blocked a strike from nora kicking her in the chest making her cry in pain knocking her back. Then ren swiped at him several times trying to knock him down. But exeprtly the assassin caught his left arm swiftly tearing his porhtsetic away. Then x-8 threw it off the edge leaving ren with one arm

Immeialty the assassin tackled him to the ground trying to drive a knife into his throat. Ren strugled holding it back with one arm as earl gripped his fist tight before eyeing his shotgun pistol but eyed a pistol hoslter on nolan side

Reaching over he grabbed it before firing off a shot that went straight into x-8 chest stunning him. The assasin looked down seeing a bullet in its armor as white blood came out. Earl took aim before smiling

"Payback is a bitch!"he shouted before firing another shot as the bullet exited the chamber. The caritage came out of the muzzle as time seemed to slow down at that moment. Slowly the bullet traveled as it went striahgt into x-8 head piercing it as the assassin lurhced back as time resumed

Their was pure silence for a moment as x-8 simply kneeled for a moment before falling face first onto the ground lifeless as he was dead. With opehlia laughing in tears

"Okay…okay lets get you.."ophelia stopped seeing her remaining teammate right now. As earl was lifeless right now with him smiling as she felt his hand it felt cold to the touch. She began to shake him several times for him to wake up

"Come on..come on you idiot…wake up….please wake up….please wake up!"ophelia cried as nolan had tears on his face with may fighting the urge to sob seeing this was hazel who soften his gaze. Running over he regrettable tore opehlia away who was screaming for her teammate right now. As he shared a look with leon who nodded

"Grab him we gotta move!"he ordered as two despardos carried earl corpse as they leaped onto a small ledge where the mountain was. As the explosive went off right now destroying the cannons as they all took a breather for a moment. Hazel just looked at the battlefield before them hoping they win, no more children deserve to die in this war.

With that we see that a tragic death has happened on the battlefield. But weiss crossed the line to defend her baby brother. What other lines will be crossed in this war?
