Judging by the name of the trailer, the kids assumed it was Blake's trailer. Just like Weiss, Blake wasn't all that enthralled to see what would be shown. Knowing her luck though, it might just be her in the middle of a heist.
Yang, the partner she is, noticed Blake become a bit more tense upon seeing that her trailer was up next. So, in a way to comfort her, Yang asked Blake was going to alright. Blake nodded, she just mentally needed a few or so seconds to get her mind in order.
Having given the green light, the trailer began.
"Your hopes have become my burden. I will find my own liberation"
Blake knew damn well whom those hopes belonged to. And seeing this, the trailer would definitely be having… him in it.
The screen shows an above few of a forest full of red trees, the shattered moon in the background with the mountains. The leaves blowing in the wind like petals.
The screen slowly lowers to show Blake sitting on a large rock, looking up into the sky.
Another figure comes onto the screen, but not showing who he is. "Blake, it's time."
Hearing his voice again was bringing Blake into a much darker place than she would like. Yang, sensing this, gave Blake one of the pillows on the seats for Blake to hold on to while they watch the trailer.
The angle changes to a close up of Blake, soo turning her head and reluctantly replying "Okay." She didn't seem at all happy.
The scene changes to the two rushing through the forest at massive speed before stopping at the edge of a cliff. In the distance is the sound of a rushing train. Scene changing to actually showing the train speed by on the tracks.
It took Weiss a moment, but she recognized when her father began yelling about a train of dust losing its cargo because of someone detaching them from the rest of the train. Weiss' eyes widened, but she didn't say anything.
Weiss knew Blake could have said something during her trailer, but she didn't, so Weiss would give Blake the same courtesy, keeping herself quiet.
The two of them jump down from the cliff and ride on the steep slope before jumping, landing on the moving train. Adam uses his sword to stop his momentum. The two run across the top before making their way inside one of the cars.
The screen shows black before it shows Blake and Adam, "Looks like we're gonna be doing this the hard way." All around them are guard robots that activate and surround them.
Just hearing his voice gave Yang the impression that this man was just a massive asshole. She tries her best to be friendly to people, but this guy just gives her the instinct ick.
"Don't be so dramatic," Was Blake's response, getting a grip on Gambol Shroud, preparing for a fight.
"Intruder, identify yourself." Says one of the robots, transforming his arms into guns. Adam just stares at him emotionlessly. Then sending his katana at him, knocking him backwards. Once he retrieves his katana and slices the robot. This is when all the robots begin to attack.
A few of the more chaotic kids in the room happily wait for a fight to happen.
The robots behind Blake charge but she easily uses her semblance to launch herself backwards to slice the guards. The two effectively make a good pair, taking each robot down left and right. They hit one final robot that leaves them outside the previous car.
More robots show and charge forward, Adam looks at Blake. "Let's do this."
Both fight back as Adam sends the guards up while Blake knocks them down. Blake throws Gambol Shroud, a long ribbon keeping it attached. Before she yanks it back, releasing fire on the tin cans.
Yang was just as excited as the others to see her partner kick ass, but she's a bit more cautious when yelling out her excitement because of Blake's ears being uncovered.
The two swipe, dice and slice their way up the cars effortlessly. Once reaching the designated car, they open up a chest. In the background on the ceiling is a large spider-like robot. "Perfect, move up to the next car." He closes the chest, turning to Blake. "I'll set the charges."
Most of the people in the room gasped, he planned to blow up the train?!
"What about the crew members?" Blake asked, gaining a worried expression. Adama simply responded "What about them?"
Now they knew one of the reasons as to why Blake disliked this man so much. He was willing to murder all those innocent crew members with no hesitation!
That was when the robot made itself known. Crawling from the ceiling to the floor.
'Born with, no life, into subjugation'
"Adam," Blake says worriedly, but he just ignores her. The bot powers up its guns, rapid firing.
'Treated, like a, worthless animal'
Weiss felt guilt as her family was one of the bigger reasons for that problem. That wasn't saying she wasn't a part of the issue herself.
Avoiding the plasma blasts, Blake goes in to attack, the sheer body of it deflects her. Sending her lying on the ground in front of it.
'Stripped of all rights. Just a lesser being.'
It moves closer, but Adam retreats back. It gives him a little kick, and Adam flies back, missing its shots.
'Crushed by cruel ruthless human rule!'
Adam carries Blake to safety as it was about to step on her with its mechanical appendage. "We need to get out of here."
The others let out a sigh of relief.
'When it started, all we wanted was a chance to live our lives'
The bot transforms its guns into a much larger one on its head. Firing up, before being sent their way as a large plasma beam.
'Now in darkness, taking everything we want and we will rise'
The blast sends them flying onto an open car. The bot crawls out of the car, using the broken wall.
'We'll rise'
"Buy me some time," Blake looks over at him. "Are you sure?"
'We'll rise'
"Do it!" He yells at her, she follows and proceeds to advance on the robot, avoiding its plasma. Throwing her weapon, it wraps around its body, before she pulls it, allowing it to fire.
'We'll Rise'
'From shadows, we'll descend upon the world, take back what you stole!'
She uses her semblance to speed towards the ground. Starting from the legs, she makes her way up its chest and continuously fires the inside when she gets close enough, to soon later fall back to Adam.
It charges up its large plasma cannon, then fires "Move!" He yells, telling Blake to get out of the way. The beam heads straight for him, but he easily stores all of the power's energy in his sword. Chuckling as his whole demeanor turns red.
The bot moves forward, big mistake. Adam destroys it with one slash, ending its life, and letting it dissolve into petals.
Everyone in the room stared at the screen in shock, frozen at how much power one strike had.
Running to the end of the car, Blake stands on the opposite side. He puts out his hand telling her to wait. She grabs Gambol Shroud and disconnects them from the rest of the train. "Goodbye."
Blake knew that was one of the best decisions she has ever made.
As Blake recedes farther and farther away, the screen goes red with her black silhouette. The scene changes to the character's screen, revealing the third slot to be Blake, allowing the screen to go black.
Blake didn't really want to say much as that was not a pleasant trip down memory lane. She was glad Yang gave her the pillow though as she must have squeezed the life out of it.
There wasn't much cheering like the first trailer as these two have seemed to make Blake and Weiss really uncomfortable. Hopefully Yang's will leave a lighter mark on the group.
Hers should be a lot more up beat and vibrant.
Doing the same thing Blake did, Weiss listened to the lyrics of the song and really felt all sorts of guilt, her family and others having subjected them to the toxic lifestyle.
