Opening my eyes, I could feel the dirt on my face, as well as a heavy pressure on my body. I could see the sun, I could see Vale. I was under some rubble, most likely the ground as I was looking upwards from a lowered position. Everything hurt, I couldn't move. From my position of where I was, I could see Team RWBY.
Team RWBY was surrounded in the middle of the pavilion by Beowolves, Ursai, and a massive King Taijitu. The King Taijitu unleashed a mighty roar, signaling the Grimm to attack. Ruby planted Crescent Rose on the ground before kicking away the Grimm, Yang propeled herself upwards, performing aerial bombardments with Ember Celica on the Grimm before three Giant Nevermores sent her crashing to the ground. Blake slashed a Beowolf with Gambol Shroud and then another with the White Saber before firing on the other approaching Grimm. Weiss Schnee slashed three Beowolves, before summoning a glyph to conjure up an ice blade.
Yang, back on the ground, sends several cars flying towards the Grimm. As Ruby finishes slashing at a Grimm, she notices the King Taijitu ready for the attack, until comes flying on Magnhild towards the King Taijitu, slamming it on the head and killing the beast.
"Nora Smash!" Nora called out in joy as she flipped off of the head of the King Taijitu, where Jaune, Pyrrha Nikos and Lie Ren soon follow.
"Let's move!" Pyrrha ordered as she and the ofhers went on the attack, as Jaune sighs as it was his job tk say so as he was team leader.
"Smack!" Nora yelled as she bats a Creep away while Ren strikes two more. He moves on to slash at a Beowolf.
"Okay, who's first?" Jaune asked as he started to move, only to freeze as something landed behind him. Jaune turned around to notice a giant Ursa standing behind him. Pyrrha, who was fighting several Grimm nearby, impaling a Beowolf, and then a Creep, before seeing the Ursa advance on Jaune. Behind him Weiss and Blake are fighting more Grimm, who were exchanging the White Saber as they fought.
"Oh-oh-okay, you're first, huh? Okay, no, that's fine. Totally fine, done this before, done this before." Jaune said as he backed up, before letting out a sigh. With a mighty scream, Jaune slashed the Ursa several times before it fell backwards. Pyrrha smiles, as she notices his improvement. A few feet from the fallen Ursa, Sun and Neptune arrived, flashing their badges.
"Nobody move! Junior detectives!"
"We have badges so you know it's official!"
A fleet coming from the Atlesian Military, consisting of dropships deploying Atlesian Knight-200 units and the flagship of James Ironwood. Sun and Neptune react in awe of the fleet as Sun drops his badge to the floor. As Team RWBY looks up in the sky, an Ursa takes the opportunity to attack Ruby from behind. However, it is gunned down by a dropship's machine gun. As the robotic Knights deploy, they start gunning down the Grimm. Two of the Knights are stampeded on by a Boarbatusk, but a separate group of three Knights fire on an Ursa and another Ursa has fallen from a Knight's punch.
That was when I saw her, Cinder. Next to her, Mercury and Emerald. Cinder nods her head, signaling Mercury and Emerald to attack the Grimm as she walks off. As an Ursa receives the business end of Talaria, at least half a dozen assorted Grimm stand in front of Emerald. Who draws Thief's Respite from their holsters, revealing them to be dual pistols. The Grimm pack learn this the hard way as she opens fire and all but a single Ursa fall to a barrage of Dust shots while charging at Emerald. Emerald quickly transforms her pistols into kopis blades, flipping and slashing at the rampaging Ursa to kill it.
Feeling the rubble move slightly, I could see the dog, Zwei if I recalled, looking at me before licking my face clean of the dirt. As more Knights subdue Grimm, out of the opening comes Dr. Oobleck in a damaged Atlesian Paladin-290. The dog jumping off of me and headbutt a Beowolf.
An airship arrives, dropping off Team CFVY and Professor Peter Port. I was not ready to see them, as reports indicated that they would not be back for another week. As Yatsuhashi was surrounded by a pack of Grimm, he unlimbers Fulcrum before smashing it on the ground, unleashing a shockwave that sent them flying. Velvet and Fox respectively kick and punch the Grimm with Fox impaling a Creep. Nearby a large spiked Ursa roars before charging them. Fox intercepts it with a kick then unleashes a combo of slashes and punches with Sharp Retribution. Knocking the Grimm skyward with an uppercut, as it descends he delivers a blow to the head with both hands that sends it flying. After landing it swells up and explodes impaling the nearby Grimm with its spikes. Coco walked forward, swatting a few away with her weapon. Yatsuhashi shielded Velvet before the two started advancing.
Coco gave Fox a light pat on the butt as she walked past him. "Nice hustle, Fox. Good job." She said as Fox jumps back as Coco approaches a large Beowolf. "You just destroyed my favorite clothing store." She said as she spat to the side. "Prepare to die." She said, after swatting away its right hand as it slashed at her, then proceeded to kick the Beowolf in the crotch. She, as it falls to the ground and looks at her, leans down and slams her bag onto its head. She effortlessly swats away three more Beowolves, then leaps back to avoid a Death Stalker's tail. Velvet steped forward, and moves a hand toward Anesidora, about to open the box. "Hey, come on, you just spent all the semester building that up. Don't waste it here." Coco said with a grin. Coco then transforms Gianduja into a giant minigun, and starts firing, slaughtering the advancing horde of Grimm, including a Death Stalker and three Nevermores.
Port and Oobleck regroup at the opening, nodding their heads. They fire their weapons at the approaching Grimm, while Glynda Goodwitch mops up the remnants and immediately closes the opening using her Semblance. During this time, she moved me back under feound, freeing me from my position.
Thrusting my hands upwards, I easily broke free from the ground, with me walking out. Once the smoke cleared, I caught Nora in the air as she tried to swat me away. I sent my lightning at her, with me finding that she absorbed it and became stronger, smirking at me. Throwing her at her team as they all charged, I shocked them as well. Holding my other hand up, I stopped the bullets that came my way. Looking at Team RWBY and CFVY, both Coco and Ruby looked on in shock at what just happened. I lifted all of Team JNPR and tossed them all into the distance, where everyone watched them fly.
Holding my hands up, all of the robotic Knights were pulled into the air and crashed into eachother, creating a large ball of metal that I tossed at Glynda. I held my hands out and stopped the large fire balls that came my way, with me tossing them at Weiss who created a large ice wall that protected her from the attack. Holding mybhand out to Glynda, I caught the metal ball that she sent back at me, with us pushing it back and forth. Seeing Dr. Oobleck and Professor Port charge, I caught their weapons and turned them against eachother, forcing them to fire upon themselves. Glynda, at the last moment, let the giant metal ball go and pulled them out of the flames and had them set beside her.
Looking up at the metal ball, I saw a large ice hand holding it in place, before cracks formed and shattered it, the ball being sent towards Glynda and the others. At the last second, Yatsuhashi held it in place with pure strength, but was still being pushed back Yang ran over and started punching it back, stopping his movements all together.
Turning around, I held my hand out to Blake as she slashed at me with the White Blade. She stopped all together, pushing against me with all her might. Grabbing the handle, she looked at her hand as her hand slowly opened, letting it go. The blade slowly turned from white, to yellow, then orange, then finally red. I thrusted the blade at her, but she was grabbed and pulled away as I was kicked away.
Looking at both Velvet and Fox, I tossed them aside as I landed on my back, with me rolling away from a stomp from Coco. Looking at Blake, I saw Ruby standing in front of her, arm raised. "You've gotten stronger, holding that bolder in place while batting all of us, got to say... I like the power, but hate where it lead you." Coco said as she walked around me with Fox charging in with Velvet. I put the saber away and held my hands out to my sides, lifting them up slowly as everyone around me was lifted up by their throats.
"St-stop... don't do it!" Blake begged, with me looking over at Cinder and the other two, seeing that they were not in my range. Looking over at Sun and Neptune, they too were caught in my grasp. I narrowed my eyes as someone was missing. Looking back at the metal ball, I saw that it was completely frozen over and Yatsuhashi was gasping for air with Weiss helping him stand.
Feeling the saber on my waist get removed, I turned to face Yang, who turned it on and swung it at my head. I looked over at Blake, seeing her and Ruby scream in horror. At the same time, my vision turned upside down, falling. I could see Cinder smirking at my demise... almost as if she planned this. Once my head hit the ground, I could see all of the shocked lookes on Team CFVY, and it hurt to see them like that. Looking past them, my eyes laid on Weiss, who covered her mouth in horror at what Yang just did. Finally, my eyes set upon Glynda, who was on her knees holding into the two professors, looking at me with tears in her eyes. I smiled before everything went dark.
Later
Opening my eyes, I could only see a thick liquid. I was inside it, tubes connected to me, helping me breath. 'Where... am I?' I thought, stretching my limbs out, as I had been curled up for some reason. I saw visions, people, places I had never seen before, most prominent was the Feline and the multi colored girl.
...
'A... voice? No, multiple voices... they are outside.' I thought as I placed a hand on the glass, with me seeing a demon woman looking at me from the other side. She had a large grin on her face before backing up into the darkness.
"Begin production, they will be the start." She said, Salem, that was her name.
...
'There, again, the voices... Not outside, inside my mind. Who... are you? Who... am I?'
"A hard path, you must follow. Be it guided by the force, or by empty anger. That is the path you shall follow, that is your destiny." The voice called out, with me remembering it, her voice was louder than the others, because of my connection to her. Revan, my sister.
I pushed on the glass, with it shattering, where red lights flashed as I stepped out, pulling a large tube out of my throat. Once I removed it, I threw up a yellow liquid, then looked up at the jelly fish like creature. I held my hand out to it, with it getting crushed by an unseen force.
Turning around, my eyes laid upon three other versions of me, each at different stages of growth. One was being grown from a leg, a head in the place of the stump. Another had the same thing going on from the arm it was growing from. The last one was fully grown, looking at me with yellow eyes, its eyes narrowed.
This cannot be my destiny. I said as I looked down at my hands, then balled them up into fists. The metal around the room shook, the walls bending to my will. Balling up, I let out a large scream as all of the power I felt exploded out of me, destroying everything around me.
Once the smoke cleared, there was nothing left around me, it was all eviscerated, gone, erased. There was nothing around me, I was on a small island, and I could see nothing but water for miles. Walking towards the edge of the island, I held my hand out to the side and watched as it cracked, where a large cunk of earth floated in front of me. Stepping on it, I let it take me off into the distance, wherever it may be.
Same Time
Pulling myself up, I looked at myself as he stepped onto that rock, leaving me behind. Looking at my right arm, I saw it was missing, the same with my leg. Holding my hand over the wound, I shocked it, screaming in pain as I cauterized the wound. I would kill him for what he has done to me.
