Grimm had swarmed the arena, attacking anything and everything in sight, some of the other hunters had joined me in fighting them off, the Atlesian Knights were, for now, on our side and were helping to gun them down, Senketsu spoke

"So, where's that leader you mentioned earlier?" I looked over

"See that tower over there? She should be at the top." I said to him, he seemed confused

"How do we get over there then? Those airships are only evacuating people, it's not like we can fly." I looked at him confused, Senketsu can't fly? But last I checked... this must be him before he learnt how to do that, I began to walk to the edge, My necklace glowed a bright red and I turned to see Ruby and the others, all looking at me

"Y/N!? what's going on?" I smiled

"Well, Emerald used her illusions to make it seem like I was dead, that caused the crowd to release a mass of negative emotions, it's nice to know you lot care about me." Blake interrupted

"Get to the point!" I smiled

"Well the negative emotions attracted an army of Grimm, including a massive Wyvern that will be rearing it's ugly mug any time now, those Knights will turn on you, when they do, get to General Ironwood, he'll know what to do, for now just kill all the Grimm and bad guys you find!" All of them looked nervously between each other, I smiled

"Let me tell you something guys." They all looked back to me

"There's an old Earth saying, a phrase of great power and wisdom and consolation to the soul in times of need" Blake spoke 

"And what's that then?" I smiled, before turning and running off the edge of the floating arena

"ALLONS-Y!"

The wind rushed past me as I plummeted to the ground, I saw some of the flying Grimm beneath me, I pulled out the ceramic Half Rose and loaded up a gravity magazine, using the recoil to angle myself I managed to latch onto one of them, it writhed in the air, trying to buck me off, I stabbed my weapon into it's back, it started to head towards the ground, flapping it's wings wildly to try and keep itself in the air, it it crashed to the ground as I used it's corpse to cushion the fall, I walked away from it's fading body and pulled out my Scroll, my locker rocketed through the sky before crashing next to me and opening up, revealing the real Half Rose, I swapped them out and ran straight for the tower, I saw Ozpin waiting at the doorway

"Mister L/N, what are you doing?" I ran straight past him

"Doing exactly what I said I would, and saving people." I said, getting into the elevator and pressing the button to go straight to his office, upon arrival I heard a loud, high pitched screech, I ran to the window to see the Wyvern flying straight towards  the tower

"How big is that thing?" Senketsu said, I smiled grimly, before jumping up and hiding on one of the large gears, now to wait, a few minutes passed, there was a loud crash, and smoke billowed into the room, Cinder walked out of it, not noticing me,...
