*1st Person POV*

After Jinn showed us the entire backstory of not only Salem, but also about Ozpin, his previous incarnations, and the entire world before and after the Brothers left Remnant, we were trying our best to deal with the sole fact that Salem cannot be killed.

Yang: "Salem can't be killed... you all heard her too, right?"

We all angrily glare at Ozpin, whose head is still down. He looks up, with tears streaming down his face. Qrow just looks away.

Ozpin: "I--"

Yang: (enraged) "There was so much you hadn't told us! How could you think that was okay?!"

Ozpin doesn't say anything, he just hangs his head back down in shame.

Ruby: "Professor..." Ozpin looks up at her. "What is your plan to defeat Salem?"

Ozpin: "I... don't have one..."

Azure: "What do you mean you don't have one...?"

Suddenly, Qrow punched Ozpin in the face, sending him into a nearby tree trunk.

Qrow: "No one wanted me... I was cursed... I gave my life to you because you gave me a place in this world... I thought I was finally doing some good..."

Ozpin: (tearfully) "But, you are!"

Qrow: "Meeting you... was the worst luck of my life..."

Ozpin stares back in disbelief upon hearing Qrow say that, before looking down dejected.

Ozpin: "Maybe you're right..." His eyes glowed as control is transferred back to Oscar. He holds his cheek in pain from the effects of Qrow's punch.

Ruby: "What happened?"

Oscar: "He's... gone."

Yang: "That bastard! Tell him we're not done yet!"

Oscar: "No, this is different. He's gone. It-- It's like he's locked himself deep inside my head. Our head?" He grunts as he holds his head in pain. "I hate this! I want it to stop!"

Vert: "After all of that..."

Weiss: "He just left us?"

Blake: "What are we gonna do now?"

Yang growls in anger.

Maria: "Enough! We need to get move on. It'll be dark before we know it, and every one of you is spewing negativity!" She helps Oscar up with her cane. "There's a trail over there, trails usually lead somewhere."

Yang: "Lady, I know you may be Azure's grandma, but--" Grandma slammed her cane down on the ground.

Maria: "No buts! I understand that you're upset. Honestly, I'm still coming to terms with the fact that this is humanity's second time around. But, if we don't move, we die. And I'll be damned if I've lived this long just to die out here in the cold! Tell 'em, Azure!" I walked over to her side.

Azure: "Guys, she's right. We need to get a move on. It's not doing us any good just standing here."

Everyone grabbed their belongings and whatever Dust they can carry with them. Maria sat on Bumblebee as Yang walks her bike. Ruby and I walked over to Oscar and she hands over the handle of his cane. He grabbed the cane with hesitance.

Oscar: "I'm just going to be another one of his lives, aren't I?"

Ruby: "Of course not. You're your own person."
