YN, Benedict, Moss, and Speer with the eight Imperial Eagle Knights and Cinder with her entourage are walking through the dark realm towards Salem's palace. The Knights are at the ready with both sword and pistol at the ready to ward off any Grimm that get too close.

Moss: Your Majesty, I don't like this place. It reeks of disorder.

YN: I'm not a fan of it either but there are things that we must do.

They walk up to the palace and through the massive double doors. They walk down the main hall and towards Salem's throne room. She isn't in her conventional form but rather that of her younger self. Before she became the queen of darkness.

Salem: I am the queen of darkness and Grimm, and ruler of this realm

Salem: I am the queen of darkness and Grimm, and ruler of this realm.

YN: My name is YN LN, Emperor of the Imperium of Man, rightful ruler of the universe. This is my son, Benedict LN, and these are two of my most trusted advisors, Lord General Inquisitor Moss, and Beaurocrat General Speer.

Salem: I believe you have come to negotiate the terms for the control of Remnant.

YN: Indeed, but I am afraid that we are not budging on this matter. It is under Imperial control and it will remain so. However, I would be willing to offer certain compensation.

Salem: And that would be?

YN: I would offer money but it seems that in this realm there is little to no use for it. So what would you like?

Salem: I want Ozpin dead.

YN: He is.

Salem: What?

YN: I killed him in the first battle.

Salem: But he will just reincarnate.

YN: I killed him with a holy weapon blessed by both the Omnissiah and the Empress he isn't coming back.

Salem: That's wonderful news.

YN: Honestly, I'm surprised that you haven't heard about it, it happened like eight years ago.

Salem: So, let's go to the living room, I'm sure it would be more constructive to talk there.

YN: Indeed.

YN, Benedict, Moss, and Speer along with their guards and Cinder, Emerald, Mercury, and Tyrian go with Salem to the living room to relax.

Emerald: Why don't you take off your armor? I'm sure it would be far more comfortable.

Benedict: Our suits of armor are expertly crafted to fit our bodies comfortably. They even have a heater, AC, padding, and a USB charging port. It also has an easy exit function (think Fallout 4 power armor) that is exclusive to the Imperial family and my father's court. (court referring to the medieval definition where it would refer to a group of advisors)

Cinder: I think what Emerald means is that she would like to see you outside of your armor.

Emerald: Admit it Cinder, you also want to see the prince without his armor.

Cinder: Alright, alright, I admit I am a bit curious about what lies below that armor.

Benedict then gets up and goes over to YN.

Benedict: Father, do I have permission to exit my armor?

YN: I see no reason why not, provided that you are wearing something more than your undergarments.

Benedict: Don't worry father, I am wearing a pilot's jumpsuit underneath.

YN: Alright then.

Benedict gets out of his armor and Cinder, Emerald, and even Salem are impressed. Benedict is seven and a half feet tall and four hundred pounds. Four hundred pounds of strengthened bone and muscle. All of which is perfectly displayed by the relatively tight pilot's jumpsuit. He then goes back to sitting next to Cinder and Emerald.

Benedict: So what do you think?

Cinder: You are so impressive.

Benedict: I'm not all that, my father is far more impressive.

Emerald: Don't be modest, you look handsome.

Cinder: (whispers in Benedict's ear) And delicious.

Salem then walks up to Benedict and he stands up.

Benedict: It is rare that I get to meet a beauty comparable to the mythical Aphrodite, like yourself. (gives a slight bow and kisses back of her hand) I would have no objection whatsoever to become more closely acquainted. (runs a hand over hers) Such a beautiful thing, and so powerful, a flower with thorns.

Salem blushes to the extent where her whole face turned red. If she could have she would have melted into him then and there. Tyrian also sees this and it takes all of his willpower not to attack Benedict. He was supposed to be his mistress's favorite. Not some pompous fool and the spawn of, in his eyes, a fake god.

YN: You can continue your, meeting, with Salem later loverboy. Currently, we have to negotiate a settlement over Remnant.

Salem: I have discovered a new passion, that of love. You can keep Remnant and I will withdraw my Grimm. However, I demand a palace for myself on Remnant.

YN: It shall be done. How about a nice villa on the beach, or one in the wine regions, or a nice mountain retreat?

Salem: Why not all three?

YN: An expensive price tag but I accept your terms. (Turns to his entourage) Gentlemen, we are to head for home.

Salem: Do you mind if I come with you, it has been quite a while since I have seen the surface.

YN: Why not, I have seen your palace, why don't you come to mine.

Salem: That would be very nice.

YN, Benedict, Moss, and Speer along with their guards and Salem then board the thunderhawk and set off for the White Palace.

Tyrian: WHY! WHY HAS MY MISTRESS FORSAKEN ME!?

Mercury: Maybe because she realized that you are a disappointment.

Tyrian leaps at Mercury but he manages to duck out of the way and run off to some isolated section of the palace.

Cinder: It is simple, she no longer requires your services so she kicked you to the curb.

Cinder and Emerald then go through the portal and walk into Vale for lunch and to think up a new plan since they feel that their services may no longer be needed.

Emerald: Have you considered modeling Cinder? I mean, you have a great body.

Cinder: That's not a half bad Idea. But what would you do? Stealing has become far more dangerous since the Imperium came and swapped out the old incompetent police for a much more effective model.

Emerald: That Grey sure made my opportunities dry up.

Cinder: There are also cameras everywhere.

Emerald: I've heard that they are all linked up by a supercomputer to track the populace.

Cinder: It's true, I got a look at some of the files, I can't remember much, but it is called the Machine.
(Guess the reference)

They look around before finishing their lunch and then they consider their options.

AN: Comment what Cinder and Emerald should do for their new vocation.
Also, I won't be able to update for a while because I am going to be studying for finals.
