Jack Schnee [RWBY]

Chapter 57 - Is that really you?

[Cinder POV]

I let loose my arrow and I saw go straight through her head. However, unlike what I was expecting to see, there was no blood gushing out of her head like a river. I just saw a hole that went straight through her. The next thing I knew was that the same umbrella that I just saw stabbed the girl has now pierced my c.h.e.s.t. I look at the fake Fall Maiden only to see it shatter like glass. It was an illusion from Neo. I don't understand why she would betray us. The umbrella is ripped out from my c.h.e.s.t as Neo starts to speak.

Neo: No one threatens me and gets away with it.

Cinder: What? I've never...

No way. My face morphs into one of anger as I put the clues together. Neo never talks and the only way she would is if it was something else or somebody was controlling her. I create another arrow from dust and shoot one straight at Neo. This Neo shatters like glass as another Neo appears from the entrance to the rooftop.

Cinder: Dark Phantom, I won't let you get away with this.

Neo: Oh. It's strange though cause it seems to me that you're already dead.

I feel more blood as I was stabbed again with the umbrella. He didn't miss my heart this time as I felt the blood quickly leaving my body and soaking up my clothes. I instantly lost my energy as I fell to the ground. I thought I heard someone scream in anger but it could've been my imagination. It's really hard to keep my eyes open as the darkness seems to be closing in. I failed at achieving my wish. I was so close to finally achieving the first step. I desperately tried to move to do something, anything but my body refused to listen to my calls. Eventually, it was too hard to keep my eyes open but the last thing I could see before I was taken by this darkness was the smiling face of Neo as she walked toward me.

[Dark Phantom POV]

I watched as she slowly bleeds out onto the rooftop. I made sure that the traitorous professor didn't get in the way by creating more illusions with my semblance. Honestly, it's fun to create physical illusions to trick people but it's even better when the illusion is given extra life into it by combining it with Emerald's semblance. It was downright evil if I say so myself. The best part was that it didn't take much to convince her to help me out. There's was no way she was going to see through those illusions since two different people were affecting her mind. I guess it is good to team up with other people ever once in a while. I walk up to her and rip her head off her body. I'm just making sure that there's no possible way that she's getting back up again. She should be grateful since I only do this to people I truly despise. I drop her head to the ground and crush it beneath my feet. Emerald looks disgusted and proceeds to throw up while I watch that professor recklessly charge toward me. Ozpin uses this opportunity to knock her out once and for all. He looks at me concerned but doesn't immediately attack. Well, it's not like I care what happens to this body anyway. If only Jack was here to see this, this is how a person should act. You do what you have to do and get things done.

Ozpin: Are you here for Amber?

Neo (DP): I don't care about that little girl beside someone would have my head if I took care of her. Not to mention the power won't even go to me so what's the point in trying to take it.

Ozpin: Was your only goal to kill this woman?

Neo (DP): For now that's all I want to do unless you want to buy my services. I could help out more with killing the Grimm and evacuating the citizens.

Ozpin: We're good.

Neo (DP): That's too bad, I would've liked to have you added to my contact list but it seems that I will have to wait another time then. Emerald, if you ever regain your memories, I'll kill you.

Emerald: I won't remember them, sir.

Neo (DP): Good.

I waved good-bye to this group of people as I left the battlefield. It's time to find a place to dump this body and let her wonder what exactly has happened to her while she took a nap.

[Jack Schnee]

I have been running around the academy trying to help people out. I've killed Grimm, saved random citizens, and helped any huntsmen/huntresses that I've come across. I met up with Eve and Olga after a little bit only to see that they were beaten up but fine. I managed to get into contact with Kim afterward and confirmed that she was okay. I was also happy to hear that Yang's arm didn't get slashed off either. I made my way over on my Nevermore's back to Amber's location but she was fine as well. It seems that thankfully nobody close to me has died. I've accomplished my mission to keep everyone alive but Beacon took more damage than I expected. It's not at the level where it's destroyed and overridden with Grimm but it's going to take a while to finish fixing the place.

I make my way to my room which is now rubble and search through the debris. Eventually, I find my grimoire among the rubble but I find something disturbing underneath the debris. I find the shattered remains of a snow globe. Now I have another problem to deal with in the future. Just where did those pesky memories run off too. I recover some of my other items as well and join my friends. Everybody was together discussing our next move. Ozpin has decided that classes will be suspended for a couple of months to repair the damage. Everybody has to go their separate ways until the school is back up and running again. Since this was going to be the last time I see my friends for a couple of months, I went over to talk to them.

Jack: Hey, how's it going, everyone?

Olga: You should've seen me kick that bandit's b.u.t.t and send him packing.

Eve: You mean the mysterious boy that beat the crap out of him and left.

Olga: I loosened him up for him.

Jack: A mysterious boy, huh.

Jaune: Is anything the matter Jack?

Jack: Well, I saw a mysterious woman roaming the academy helping people out.

Eve: I heard that the guy said something about having a sister so maybe that's who it was.

Olga: Either way, that guys bad news. He called me trash when we just met. At least get to know me before calling me by inappropriate nicknames.

Eve: He wasn't exactly wrong but it was rude of him.

Olga: Does anyone have my side in this?

Kim: On another note, we took care of Blake's crazy ex-boyfriend in all the chaos as well.

Yang: The three of us are unstoppable together. We took him down with no problems at all.

Ruby: I'm just glad everyone's okay.

Jack: Me too.

Ren: It's a shame that we have to part for a couple of months but it might be wise because not everyone while alive didn't come out of it without a couple of injuries.

Nora: Don't be such a downer. We beat up the bad guys and saved the day.

Ozpin: You all did a fantastic job, I can't wait to see what kind of people you'll become in the future.

It was at this moment that something flew out of the ground toward the sky. I couldn't see what it was but is covered in a green aura. I looked over at Ozpin to see him shocked and slightly fearful about the green light. It wasn't until I saw the sky darken and saw sparks of green lightning shoot across the sky that I started to get worried. What's going on?
