RWBY: HERO (Volume 1-3)

Chapter 29

Back at Amity Colosseum, theNevermore screeches as it continues to weaken the force field that's keeping it from getting in.

"Where the hell is Henry?!" shouted Olive.

"I saw him with Ruby!"

"Well, he needs to stop with the making moves on her and making a move to come back!" says Roger.

"Warning: Safety Barriers Failing."

As civilians run past her in a panic, Ruby Rose stays kneeling on the ground with her head down, her expression in a mixture of shock and sadness. Henry realizes and tries to help her up.

"Ruby! We need to help out! Ruby!"

As the Nevermore circles around the colosseum, Pyrrha Nikos struggles to stand as she looks in shock at the torn apart Penny Polendina.

Jaune  stands with the remaining members of Team JNPR.

"PYRRHA!! Pyrrha, that thing's going to break in! You've gotta move!"

Jaune, Ren, and Nora look up and see the force field flash as the Nevermore rises back up before diving back in. Wasting no time, the leader of TeamJNPR jumps from the stands into the arena.

"Jaune!" shouted Nora.

Jaune runs towards Pyrrha.

"Pyrrha, please snap out of it!"

Suddenly, the Nevermore completely breaks through the holographic barrier, and the force of it landing on the arena floor knocks back Jaune, Pyrrha, and the pieces of Penny. The Nevermore screeches and lunges towards Pyrrha. Suddenly, the Nevermore is knocked back by a red and blue, twirling blur of roses, with the cause of the blur gripping one of Penny's swords and stabbing into the Nevermore, before jumping back down in front of Pyrrha.

"Ruby? Henry?"

Ruby and Henry with an angered, determined expression on their face, pointing Penny's sword toward the Nevermore.

"Leave her alone!" shouted Ruby.

The Nevermore rises up and circles around the arena before lunging back down. Ruby holds Penny's sword defensively as Henry holds his tightly. Suddenly, the Nevermore gets pinned down by a barrage of rocket lockers, and screeches out in pain before going unconscious. The lockers then open up, revealing the weapons of various students, including Crocea Mors,StormFlower, Magnhild, and Yatsuhashi Daichi's large sword.

The respective owner of the sword pulls it out from his locker, and is shown alongside Scarlet David gripping his cutlass and flintlock pistol,Sage Ayana with his own sword, and Neptune Vasilias with his gun in hand. The camera continues to pan over showing Sun Wukong with Ruyi Bang and Jingu Bang in its staff form, Ren and Nora carrying their respective weapons, and the remaining members of TeamCFVY, the members of Team ABRN, as well as Flynt Coal and Neon Katt of Team FNKI, all gripping their respectiveweapons. The students are then suddenly shaken when the Nevermore starts to get back up.

Ren then leaps up into the air and uses the blades of his weapons to slash at the Nevermore. Arslan Altan uses her rope dart to swing down and grab the towering Yatsuhashi from the ground. Sage also leaps up into the air, and Nora runs up to the Nevermore's head and hit it with Magnhild in its hammer form.

When Arslan reaches peak height, she lets go of Yatsuhashi, who is then joined by Sage, as the two broadsword wielders slash down and decapitate the Nevermore, causing it to dissipate into black particles. As Arslan lands back on the ground next to her teammates, Ruby looks over to the teary-eyed Pyrrha.
