Hey everyone! WELCOME to the tenth episode of the FIFTH VOLUME of RWBY: (Genius Gamer Shadow) Ex-Aid Reader x Ruby Rose! So, to recap once again, I DO NOT OWN RWBY AND I DO NOT OWN KAMEN RIDER EX-AID!! RWBY is owned by RoosterTeeth and Kamen Rider Ex-Aid is owned by Toei. So, now sit back, enjoy and LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!!!
Jay: BOOM!!!!!!
*Jay Mercury strikes gong with his lightning bolt from his finger*
My POV:
Oscar, who is currently letting Ozpin take over, Shadow's father, Apollonir, Tenka, and Qrow are seen sitting together in the living room. Qrow then takes a sip from his cup, before he spoke.
Qrow: Things aren't looking good, Oz.
Ozpin: Ever the optimist.
He takes a small sip from his cup before continuing.
Ozpin: While I would not say our current predicament is... ideal, I think we can both agree that the situation could be much worse. Humanity is a resilient force.
Apollonir: Oz, pro Huntsmen like that don't just bite it all at once. Even for this guy over here.
He says so while pointing at Qrow, who just rolls his eyes at him.
Qrow: We all know Salem's powerful, and It seems like her reach is growing by the day. So, what does that say about humanity?
Ozpin: That there are indeed a misguided few who have filled their hearts with malice. It doesn't take a great number of people to cause harm, but I still believe there are far more people in this world willing to prevent it.
Apollonir: True.
As Ozpin is about to take another sip, Ruby and Shadow are heard walking into the room.
Ruby: Um, excuse me?
Me: Hey, dad.
Apollonir: (nods) son.
Ozpin: Ah, Miss Rose, Mr Wrath, join us. We were just about to gather everyone to discuss our next steps.
Ruby: Oh, uh, great.
Me: Right....
Qrow: Something on your mind kiddos?
Ruby: Uh... uh, it's... if it's okay to ask.
Qrow: Of course.
Ruby: Well, uh... it's just that Shadow, the others, and I've been talking about the Relic at Haven... and the Spring Maiden, but... what about the Fall Maiden?
Ozpin: Cinder?
Ruby: Does that mean... Salem has the Beacon Relic?
Me: Yeah... does she have it?
Ozpin, Apollonir, Tenka and Qrow share a brief look with each other, suddenly piquing their interest.
Ozpin: Very astute, Miss Rose, Mr Wrath, I was wondering who would be the first to ask. No, thankfully she does not. It's true that the Relic at Haven is very much at risk, and for now, that should remain our primary focus. Let's just say I made finding the Relic at Beacon a... bit more challenging than at the other schools.
Me: Really? Huh, you're just as good as Pallad, hiding things.
Ruby: Oh. That's good to hear.
Ozpin: It is, but let's not forget the challenges that still lie before us.
Ruby and I soon nod our heads.
Ozpin: Now is there anything else we can help you with?
Ruby: Oh, uh... well, I did have one more question.
Ozpin: No, my cane is not a Relic.
Ruby: I have no more questions.
We all giggle.
Ozpin: Yes, while this cane is indeed very precious to me, it is also just that - precious to me. While I admit it still has a few more tricks up its sleeve, I can firmly say that being a Relic isn't one of them. Now why don't you run and get the other students?
Suddenly, Qrow's scroll is heard vibrating. He takes it out from his pocket to see "LEO LIONHEART" calling. He turns his head towards the Flame Elemental Warrior, who gives him the nod to answer it.
Qrow: Yeah? ... Okay... yeah, we'll be there.
With a click of a button on his Scroll, Qrow hangs up and tucks his Scroll back into his pocket.
Ruby: Who was it?
Qrow sighs in weariness, while taking out his flask from his back pocket.
Qrow: It was Leo, says he had a breakthrough with the council. Thinks he might be able to get together a small raiding party for the bandits. He wants us to meet up at the school tomorrow night to walk us through it.
Ruby gasps in excitement, a wide smile suddenly appearing in her delicate face.
Ruby: Really? Oh, that's great! I'll go get the others.
Me: Let's go, Ruby.
Ruby then runs out of the room, while Qrow takes a drink from his flask. While Ruby was excited about this news, Apollonir looked incredibly skeptical about this.
Ozpin: Mmm, that sounds drastically different from your original conversation, does it not?
Qrow: It does.
Ozpin: Interesting...
Apollonir: Like Qrow said a while ago, Things aren't looking good, Oz.
Ozpin: I know...
As Ruby and I were about to reach the room where the others are discussing about the Spring Maiden and Relic, a voice ring in my head.
??? (In my head): Shadow.... Shadow Wrath.
As I heard that girl's voice, I stopped at my tracks, making Ruby to turn around to look at me.
Ruby: ummm, Shadow, are you okay?
Me: Yeah, I'm fine, Rubes. Hey, is it okay, that I be in my room real quick. I just need to check on something.
Ruby: Okay. Once you come over, we'll go outside to see Oz and Uncle Qrow.
Me: Ok. See you in a bit.
With that I rushed off to my room.
Ruby: See you....
In my room, I locked my door as I talked to my empty room.
Me: Alright, whoever you are, you got my attention! Why are you taunting me, and who are you?! Show yourself!!
After asking who was in my mind talking to me and calling my name many times, white rose petals began to appear out from my watch as a flurry of white petals began to form a figure. After a figure was formed, it revealed to be a white-hooded lady who's been calling my name.
Me: Okay. Thank you for revealing yourself. Now, who are you?
???: My name shall not be revealed, now. But in time, I will. Now, I must give you an urgent message.
----MEANWHILE----
3rd Person's POV:
At Leonardo's office, the Haven Academy's Headmaster sits at his desk in front of a blue holographic screen with the text "CALL END" before deactivating. Raven stands a few feet away from him, arms crossed and smiling.
Raven: I still have questions for you.
Lionheart: You're not alone in that.
Raven: You know, I never expected you would be the one to have the guts to betray Oz. Which makes me wonder, what does she have on you?
Lionheart: I'm helping her for the same reason you are - I'm afraid. We... we can't stop her... no one can...
Raven: That's why I tried to leave when I did. I'm not afraid, I'm smart.
Lionheart: You can call it whatever you want, it doesn't really matter. We're here... helping her.
He then buries his face in his hands in a downhearted manner, sighing.
Lionheart: I've crossed a line... I've done things that Ozpin will never forgive, and he shouldn't! I don't know where I go from here. I bet Apollonir is going to do whatever it takes to have my head if he finds out about this.
Raven: Man up! You did what you had to do to survive, there is no shame in that.
Another Pallad: You may spout whatever you want, Raven, but the real question is: Just who are you trying to convince in this room? Me.... Leonardo.... Cinder..... or Salem..??
Alarmed, Raven grabs the hilt of her sword and turns around, seeing the person responsible for the sudden voice, and immediately recognizes him but differently now.
Raven: And you must be one of Gemdeus Machina's strongest men.... thought you're colourful.
Another Pallad: Nah, that was just the other me who turned his back on my Masters. And I must say, Beautiful, you are always the perceptive one.....
Raven: It's what kept me alive.
With that said, she leaves the room while Lionheart sadly leans back sighing. Another Pallad then turns his attention back to the turncoat headmaster with a malicious smile, indicating that he has his sights set on him completely, knowing that he may betray Salem and Gemdeus real soon.
----MEANWHILE----
Back in Menagerie, the assault on the Belladonna Family Home continues as Blake and Ilia stare at each other from their positions, the two of them holding their weapons.
Blake: Did you come in here to hide?
Ilia: I told you, I didn't want this.
Blake: But you're still here!
Ilia: I don't have a choice!
Blake: Of course you do!
Instead of retorting back at her, Ilia doesn't say anything and just looks away.
Blake: Just... stay out of our way.
Blake puts Gambol Shroud on her back and starts walking away, only for Ilia to suddenly leap and charges at her but Blake expected it and was able to parry her attack with ease, before leaping back away from Ilia.
Blake then runs a few feet away behind Ilia. She holds her weapon in a defensive stance, while Ilia begins to attack with the whip form of her weapon. Blake dodges and rolls away from the attack, runs along the desks and chairs in the room as Ilia tries to use her whip to hit her.
Blake manages to dodge and block Ilia's attacks, and uses her ribbon to wrap around Ilia's wrist. Ilia is pulled towards Blake, kicking the chameleon Faunus to the ground. Ilia stands up immediately and continues, only to lock blades with Blake.
Blake: Why do you feel like we have to hurt people to get our way?!
Ilia: Because it works!
Blake: That doesn't make it right!
Ilia pulls the trigger on her weapon, giving an electrical charge that causes Blake to drop her katana a few feet away from her. Blake pulls out her cleaver, but Ilia jumps from the desk and does a turn kick that knocks Blake over another desk, causing her to drop her weapon. Ilia whips at Blake again, but she uses her Semblance to get out of the way. Blake takes cover behind a desk.
Ilia: Stop lecturing me!!
Blake peeks from behind the desk and notices Ilia's Grimm mask left behind on the ground. Ilia quietly turns the lights off in the room, causing it to go dark. Blake quickly goes to pick up her katana, while Ilia sneaks around the room camouflaged.
Thanks to their sharp hearing, they both hear a creak on the floor. They turned towards it only for Ilia to quickly knock Blake back. Blake uses the pistol form of her weapon to shoot, who quickly evades the shots.
Ilia: Why couldn't you just leave?!
Blake: Because I run away too much.
Blake dodges a couple more whips from Ilia. As she took cover from behind the desk, Blake takes out two cartridges - one with fire Dust and the other with ice. She loads the fire Dust cartridge in her weapon and aims at the shrubbery at the top corner of the room.
Blake: Sorry, dad.
Blake fires her weapon and the spreading flames start to light up the room, revealing Ilia's location. With camouflage not an option anymore, Ilia engages Blake in combat. The two began clashing blades. Ilia lashes her whip around and Blake, but she dodges out of the way of one of Ilia's attacks and starts shooting at her with the pistol form of her weapon. Ilia deflects the shots with her whip.
Ilia: Quit taking potshots and fight me like you mean it!!
Blake dodges another one of Ilia's whips and lands on the balcony above her. She takes cover behind the railing as Ilia rants at her.
Ilia: You used to see things the way I did! The way Adam did! If no one's going to do anything to stop the humans that attack us, then the only choice we have left... is to attack back!!
Blake loads another cartridge in her pistol and begins to fire at Ilia again. Ilia deflects the shots, but when she goes to use her whip again, her weapon is frozen in place.
Blake charges at Ilia who just retrieved her weapon, only to disarm her again before pinning her to the ground, holding her down.
Blake: There's always another choice, Ilia!
Ilia struggles to get up as Blake continues to hold her down.
Blake: Ilia... please. You're a good person but you're making all the wrong decisions!
Ilia: SHUT UP!!
Blake: Is this really what your parents would've wanted?!
Ilia: I don't know what else to do!!
Suddenly, Ilia ceases her struggling and her eyes start to well up, her voice breaking as she starts sobbing.
Ilia: I don't know what else to do...
As Ilia continues sobbing, there was a rumble. Corsac is thrown through the wall, dropping his weapons. Ghira jumps into the room as he growls at Corsac. He then notices his daughter pinning Ilia to the ground.
Ghira: Blake!
As he is stunned by Blake's fight, Fennec takes the chance to stab Ghira in the back, who cries out in pain and slumps toward the ground.
Blake: Dad!!
With Blake distracted, Ilia gets her off her and kicks her into a nearby chair, knocking Blake out momentarily. Ghira then gets Fennec off his back and tosses him away as Corsac runs to him. Ghira pulls the dagger out of his back and clashes fists with Corsac. The two then struggle to push each other as their hands interlock. Ilia just stares in disbelief at what's going on around her, before a voice snaps her out of her trance.
Fennec: Ilia! What are you doing?! Fight!!
Fennec pulls out another dagger and charges at Ghira. The chieftain manages to push off Corsac and dodges Fennec's swipes as he begins to fight Fennec. Just as the fight was gonna get intense....
-RIDER TIME! KAMEN RIDER ZI-O! ARMOUR TIME! (Electronic beat) BEST MATCH! BUI~DOU~!-
(A/N: Kamen Rider Zi-O - BUILD Form.)
-LION! TORA! CHEETAH! (Roar) LATORATA! LATORA~TAH~!-
(A/N: Kamen Rider OOO - Latoratah form.)
-Fire noises and organic transformation sounds-
(A/N: Ankh Greeed - Full Phoenix Form.)
While everyone are still in their fighting positions against each other, they looked up as three individuals landed before them, looking at them in shock.
(A/N: Music starts here.)
Sougo's POV:
OOO (Latoratah): Ankh, you take the one with the wolf ears, Zi-O, take girl. I got the the other wolf guy.
Me: Sounds like a plan.
Ankh (Phoenix): Always leave me with the one who is evenly matched with me. Okay then, let's go.
And with that planned, we charged. While we advanced forward, Fennec gets tossed away for a bit and begins to charge his weapon while Corsac and Os began exchanging blows. Os thrusts his Tiger-like arm claws at Corsac, but he grabs his arm, unfortunate for Corsac he has another claw as he uses it to slash his arm and his body. Corsac reels back in pain as Os takes his Latoratah stance in front of him. As Os is about to charge forward, Corsac suddenly charges forward, only to get hooked by Os' claws as he soon gets dragged along from his hood, before he uses his combo Semblance to increase the momentum of lifting him up in the air while giving him a roundhouse kick, effectively knocking him down unconscious.
I watched in awe as to see how powerful Os is.
Fennec: BROTHER!!!
3rd Person's POV:
As Fennec calls out to his brother, he charges towards Os' direction with rage, only for Ankh to block his way while giving him a flurry of phoenix slashes and fiery punches, followed by Sun coming out of the hole in the wall and dropkick Fennec out of the way.
Ankh (Phoenix): Thanks. I was starting to think he doesn't go down easily.
Sun: Heh, it's nothing really. Sun, by the way.
Ankh gives Sun a nod in gratitude. Sun then sees Blake struggling to get back up and angrily glares at Ilia as the unknown rider is currently fighting with Ilia.
Ghira: Go help Blake!
Sun: On it!
Sougo's POV:
Sun pulls out his staff and assists me as we both now engaged Ilia in combat. While in combat.....
Sun: Name's Sun! You?
Me: Sougo, Sougo Tokiwa. The greatest, nicest Demon King around, known as Kamen Rider Zi-O!
Sun: Nice to meet you! Now, let's do this!
Me: Yeah!!
... Sun and I charged towards her, twirling and thrusting their weapons and attempting to strike her with the butt of the staff and the sides, and tip of the Drill Crusher before she knocks Sun aside leaving me to clash with Ilia's weapon for a few seconds while he sets up a low sweep, landing another blow with her frozen weapon before somersaulting backwards to avoid Sun twirling the staff and parrying his strike. As she attempts a roundhouse, I smacked her aside with my Drill Crusher in hand as Sun splits apart the staff into their nunchuck forms, her back arching from the pain as she flinches from the blow.
As Ilia charges in, Sun uses his gunchucks and fires off a barrage of shotgun blasts and twirls them in a flurry of blows and I gave her a flurry of Rabbit kicks and Drill slashes and thrusts, while Ilia blocks every single one of them before Sun does a handstand and kicks her aside. He then cartwheels into the air and fires off the gunchucks which Ilia parries again, before he, Ilia and I locked our weapons against each other. Once Ilia sees that the ice has melted off, she grins, but quickly discovers her whip does not respond to her pulling the trigger. Seizing this moment of distraction, Sun and I looks at each other as they nod as they pushed Ilia aside with the butt of his staff and the side of his Drill Crusher before pinning her against a pillar.
Elsewhere, the weakened Fennec gets back up to confront Ankh once again, but Ghira confronts him. Fennec ducks underneath one of Ghira's punches, while blocking a backhand with his arm, finding an opportunity, Ankh fires a fireball at Fennec while Ghira sends a right hook, both attacks landing the Fox Faunus into the hole they just entered through moments earlier.
As Ilia struggles to get out of Sun and my hold, the pillar she is getting pushed against starts to crack.
Blake: Stop!! Please...
With both Sun and I distracted, Ilia managed to push Sun and I off her and falls to the ground. Suddenly the pillar starts to crack even more, Sun and I moved out of the way quickly as the balcony above Ilia starts to give way. Ilia yelps as the balcony is about to fall on her. Suddenly, Ghira is seen lifting the broken part of the balcony with his own strength.
Ghira: Go!!
Ilia quickly gets out of the way as Ghira is forced down on one knee to keep the balcony from falling on him. Sun uses his Semblance to summon two light clones that go and help Ghira lift. Blake grabs her katana and transforms it into her kusarigama form.
Unbeknownst to them, Fennec gets back up and sees his brother still unconscious. He grabs both of their daggers and charges to kill Ghira.
Blake quickly uses her weapon to wrap her weapon around her father's torso and pull him out as Fennec lands just below the falling balcony. Fennec is then crushed by the balcony, and the Dust in the daggers explode from impact, killing the younger Albain for good.
(A/N: Music ends here.)
Afterwards, Kali enters the room dragging an unconscious Yuma, who has his hands tied behind his back.
Blake: Mom!
Kali drops Yuma as her daughter comes up to hug her. Their embrace is cut short as a voice gets their attention.
Corsac: What have you done? You ruined everything... EVERYTHIIIIIIING!!!
Graphite's POV:
The Belladonnas, Ankh, Os and Zi-O took their defensive stances as Corsac angrily runs forward, but suddenly, a White Fang Member soon gets thrown in between them from the roof as a Dragon Humanoid lands in between them.
(A/N: Graphite Level 99 form.)
Blake: Graphite!
Me: How dare you.....
As I said that, Corsac staggered back in fear, knowing that he didn't heed my warning.
Me: I warned you that if you lay a finger on either of the Belladonnas, you're dead. And now that I've seen everything.... (looks at the Belladonna family) You.... will now be the first person to experience what it is like... to be hurt and tormented... a thousand times.... no.... INFINITE TIMES WORSE THAN DEATH!!!!!
I soon charged forward to give Corsac a flurry of punches and slashes, only for him to dodge them, but unbekownst to him, fire dragons came out from my weapon as they started attacking Corsac, blow after blow. As the barrage is done, everyone watched in horror as I took the opportunity to slash Corsac at his upper torso, leaving a mark on his chest as he groans in pain.
While holding on to his wound, I soon gave him a deadly flurry of blows and slashes as I soon pins the faunus down in rage as Corsac looks in fear.
Me: THIS IS FOR TRYING TO KIDNAP BLAKE!!!!!
I gave him a heavy punch in the face as I lit up on fire.
Me: THIS IS FOR INVADING THIS HOUSE THAT I'M GUARDING!!!!
I gave him another punch in the face.
Me: THIS IS FOR TRYING TO KILL GHIRA AND KALI BELLADONNA!!!
I gave him a fiery headbutt in his face.
Me: And this.... is for everything... all the lies you gave us....
Just as I was about to give Corsac his death fiery punch, Blake stopped me.
Blake: GRAPHITE STOP, DON'T!!!!
My punch was soon halted when I heard her telling me to stop.
Blake: Please.... i don't want you doing this.... I know how much you want them dead but.... death is not going to undo what has happened today. So please.... for me.... for Tenka.... for Shadow.... please,.... stop.....
I soon looked at Blake which I noticed her tearing, knowing that I was about to become a monster. Knowing that this has to stop, I controlled my power by extinguiahing my flames and I lowered my fist as I grabbed Corsac at the hood, saying:
Me: You're so fortunate that the daughter of the Belladonna family have stopped me. If she hadn't, you'd be dead.
I watched as he weakly nods infront of me.
Me: Now.... get out.
I threw him aside as I walked back to Blake as she rushed towards me and higged me.
Blake: Thank you.... for not killing him....
I soon hugged her back as I stroked her head.
Me: What can I say, we need him for questioning after all. And I will always... protect you all.
While we were hugging, Corsac slowly stood up as he yells and runs up to them, only for Ilia's weapon to wrap around his body, electrocuting him and knocking him unconscious. With the battle over, Ilia starts to cry and falls to her knees as she breaks down, with the Belladonnas, Ankh, Os, Zi-O, and Sun looking on.
----MEANWHILE----
???'s POV:
Somewhere outside Menagerie, the rest of the White Fang Members were about to begin their assault when suddenly....
???: What's this??? (Unravels hood) Looks like a party going on!
White Fang Member 1: Human! Guys, arms up!!!
With his order stated, all of the white fang members raised their arms at the hooded me.
White Fang Member 1: Surrender now or die!!!!
Me: Hmph. My name is Jay Mercury. And surrender or die, or both?! Oh dear~ I'm going to get killed~ (A/N: Yo Jaykinght00, you're a star today.)
I said that as I placed my special God Maximum Gashat into my gashat.
Me: NOT!!!! GRADE X-BILLION!!!! HENSHIIIIIAAAAUUUUUNN!!!!
-GOD MAXIMU~M~ X~ (Zombie noises and roars)-
(A/N: GOD Maximum Zombie Gamer Level X-Billion. NOTE:I don't own this pic.)
I yelled as I forcefully flipped the lever aside and pressed the button on the gashat to achieve God Maximum Zombie form.
I said that as I turned into my Grade X-Billion form, shocking and making them look in fear to what and how powerful I have become. While looking at me, the Members of the White Fang opened fire at me but to no avail as my level is extremely powerful than theirs. I laughed as I stretched out my arm and grabbed one of the WF members as I flinged him back to the rest, pinning half of the group down, leaving the other half of the group to remain standing at they kept shooting and slashing at me, but to no avail.
While they kept firing, I summoned several meteorites, causing them to hit every single one of the remaining group members, leaving only a handful holding two huge swords in their hands.
Me: (Sounding crazy while acting weak) Swords, eh? Now that is unfair~ whatever am I gonna do about tha- (Sounds crazy now) HOW THIS!?!?!?!?! BOOM!!!!!!
(A/N: Refer to 0:35 - 0:43 for video info.)
I yelled again as I point at the double-wielding WF Members as a lightning bolt struck them, electrocuting them, causing them to drop their weapons and drop unconcious. I watched as all of my enemies are down as I raised my finger in front of me as I blew a smoke streak away from my finger. (A/N: Gravity Falls reference. Lol)
Me: Heh. Easy. Now, let's get them to the burning house over there.
I said as I picked them up one by one, leading them to the burning house close by to my position.
----MEANWHILE----
3rd Person's POV:
Outside of the Belladonna's home, a large crowd of Faunus gathers outside, noticing the smoke coming from the building.
Guard: Back! Everyone, stay back! We've got people inside doing their best.
Faunus: Look!
From the smoky doorway, Ghira walks out carrying the motionless bodies of a White Fang soldier and a Menagerie Guard on each of his shoulders. He hands the bodies to two guards as Saber Rodentia, one of the Menagerie guards, arrives. Right on queue, a mechanized rider came in to drop the group of WF Members down to be brought to justice as I nodded at the group at the house door. As the guards saw this, one urged the rest of the guards to search for stragglers.
Saber: Get in there! Search for any stragglers!
More guards walk out keeping Corsac restrained, followed by Blake, Kali, Sun, Ilia, Os, Zi-O, Ankh and Graphite are being patched up by the Cerulean High Guards.
Saber: We came as soon as we got the call.
The Menagerie guard frowns when he notices Corsac being forced to his knees.
Saber: And Fennec?
Ghira sadly shakes his head. Saber walks over to Corsac, and talks to him snarkily.
Saber: Was it worth it?
Corsac looks down, defeated. As the commotion continues, Blake shares brief looks with Sun, Ilia, Os, Ankh, Zi-O and Graphite. Blake takes a deep sigh as she goes down the steps. Ghira notices his daughter walking away.
Ghira: Blake!
Before Ghira could go any further, his wife stops him, and both look on. Blake then stops at one of the steps as she begins to address the crowd.
Blake: Humans didn't do this. We did this: Faunus. We did this to ourselves. We are just as capable of hate and violence as the humans, but I don't think any of us would jump at the chance to point that out. So why are we letting Adam do it for us?! By doing nothing and staying silent, we let others speak and act in our place.
Loud murmurs then erupted among the crowd as Graphite stood up for her.
Graphite: I want to say this as we need to be equal! I've known Blake for months... no, years, and her positive and negative personalities aee one of the rarest things this harsh world can offer. Not to mention the dreams she wishes of helping Humans and Faunus altogether in a hope for peace. Now, WE must not let the Faunus to work for the White Fang, whether they like it or not. And if we're not proud of the choices they make, then we have no one to blame but ourselves. This is the message that Adam Taurus will bring to the world if no one stops him. But we can stop him! You MUST understand that all of you are looking for simple answers to a very complicated problem. And I can't give that to you, although I can try giving them to you. I don't know how to make hate go away, I don't, I'm a virus, a Game Character. But I know that this kind of violence is not the solution. I understand that to ask you to leave your homes and protect Haven Academy and save our Faunus name is asking you to put your lives at risk. But that's what's at stake now! So I'm going to stand by myself with Blake if I have to. Your message from the Guardian Graphite has spoken.
Ilia: I'll stand with you!
Blake turns around with a surprised look on her face as Ilia stands up. Her pained expression then looks down.
Ilia: If... if you'd have me.
Male Faunus 1: Isn't that the White Fang girl?
Male Faunus 2: Yeah.
Female Faunus: I thought she hated the Belladonnas.
Despite some of the crowd's murmuring amongst themselves, Blake smiles at her old friend. As Ilia proceeds forward, Saber suddenly stops her.
Saber: You're not going anywhere!
Graphite: No, Saber. Let her come. She has made her choice, she has decided to join us now.
Saber: Huh? You're just going to forgive her? After everything she did?!
Blake: We are.
Saber looks to Ghira, who nods to let Ilia go. Ilia continues to walk down the steps to stand next to her friend.
Saber: What does she think she's doing?
Ghira: She's learned a lesson that evaded me until I was much older: That there is strength in forgiveness.
Blake puts a hand on Ilia's shoulder, sharing a smile together.
Mata: I'll go!!
Mata the ram Faunus steps forward and raises his hand, followed by many more. As more Faunus start to give Blake their support, Sun, Os, Ankh and Zi-O walks down the steps to join her and Ilia and Jay walking towards them. The crowd is heard cheering as a majority agree to volunteer. They all smile at the crowd.
Sun: Looks like we've got a lot of work to do.
Blake: Thank you. And who are you?
Jay: Jay Mercury, at your service.
Sun: You stabbed me.
Jay: Huh? (Looks at Monkey-boy and Chemeleon-girl)
Ilia looks down sorrowfully, but Sun playfully pinches her arm.
Ilia: I-- Ow!
Sun: There. Let's just call it even.
Ghira and Kali then walk down the steps to join their daughter and her friends.
Ghira: We have about two weeks before Adam's attack on Haven. We're going to need shields, training, whatever we can do to protect as many people as possible.
Jay: Leave that to me, chieftain Belladonna. I have a boat to place all your weapons in. But the problem is transportation for you guys.
Kali: Jay has got a point. We'll need transportation too. For everyone.
Blake: I think I know a ship captain who owes us a favor.
Jay: Then we'll use that.
Graphite: Then consider us ready.
----MEANWHILE----
My POV:
Back at Mistral, everyone is now getting ready to leave for Haven Academy as everyone stood as they armed themselves with their weapons.
Ruby: Ready, Shadow?
Me: Ready? Everyone?
All: Yeah!
Haruto: (nods) It's showtime.
Oscar and Qrow: (nods)
Pallad: Yeah!
Me: Okay, then to Haven we go!
As Shadow and his team, and Ruby's Team, Jaune, Nora, Ren, Apollonir, Qrow, Pallad, Oscar and Haruto are walking out of the house to head towards Haven Academy, a similar figure that Shadow knows of but something is off about him, is inside the house as he watches them leave the house without knowing that he was there.
???: Battling against a goddess, eh??? Heh! I assure you, I'll show them who's god. But for now, I'll be supporting the "Winning" Team in beating them. But know this, Evol... I'll be watching you.
He says this, while holding a White Pandora Panel with real duplicates of all the 10 Lost Bottles as he used his semblance to activate Evol's semblance by conjouring a blackhole to transport himself to another location as the doors of the house are closed by Apollonir looking at the crowd walling towards Haven Academy.
Apollonir (Inner thoughts): I just know something bad is gonna happen....
To be continued....
And that's all, folks! The tenth episode of the Fifth Volume for our RWBY: (Genius Gamer Shadow) Ex-Aid Reader x Ruby Rose. Well, looks like Jaykinght00's OC has showed them who's boss, and it would appear that another OC has joined in the battle. Can you guess who's OC I used next???
