Chapter 201: Battle of Beacon (4)
~Third POV~
Back at Beacon, the Knights and YoRHa battle units continue to fire, cut up by a flurry of slashes at the Grimm while evacuating the civilians.
Weiss is seen taking down a sizeable group of Mutant Creeps using a combination of Myrtenaster's strikes as well as her using her Glyph Semblance, while Blake fights off a group of White Fang Adam soldier supporters, before using her Semblance to dodge a dual sword-wielding soldier, more White Fang grunts charge at her, but they are all suddenly knocked back by Weiss.
*BOOM*
Suddenly when one of the followers attacked the Mutant Grimm Creep suddenly exploded releasing a release of green energy explosion but spikes from the bones flew toward the group and civilians.
Those that can fight managed to dodge but those that couldn't in time led to those that see escaped the range pale in horror carefully taking care of the Mutant Creeps Weiss gritting her teeth hiding her fear of the new Grimm, "Those… those green Creeps explode when destroyed…? Tch. Just another thing to look out for against these new Grimm."
Afterward, Weiss and Blake stand back-to-back but notice a group of Mutant Creeps eerily coming closer but to their relief more forces of the human Atlas Soldiers fighting off against the group while piloting an Atlesian Paladin and Knightmare Frame attacking them in one fell swoop.
*BOOM*
Weiss shielded those with her with Blake commenting with a sigh of relief in her voice of the reinforcements as the combined forces of Paladins and Knightmares easily bat aside several of the Mutant Grimm Creeps, "Sigh... To think I would one day thank Atlas for their military might for a change of pace. Actually, helping the people out."
Weiss voices her concern to Blake trying to help out the citizens getting her teammate's attention, "Come on! Blake, we have to evacuate the citizens to the Bullheads. We can leave the soldiers to this. Will come back when we get these people to safety!"
Blake nodded in agreement to lead the people to safety…
*BOOM*
Before Weiss and Blake could assist the citizens, they notice a Bullhead about to crash land. An armored Mutant Beowolf is seen jumping out of it before it could crash with the aircraft creating more crystal spikes and getting the attention and fear of the fighters to the people nearby.
The view shifts to look down from above, more Mutant Beowolves can be seen continuing to fight the Paladin and Knightmare Frames while the Mutant Beowolf lands on the ground and starts to chase after fleeing civilians.
Weiss and Blake's exchange looks with each other getting their weapons out seeing the need to fight right away while defending the citizens behind them.
Just as the group of Mutant Bewolves began to come closer to the duo they suddenly stopped moving away confusing the two. In contrast, YoRha and Atlas Soldiers began to take away the civilians to safety.
*Swoosh*
However soon shadows began to converge revealing G. Weiss and G. Blake coming out as their red eyes shined directly at the two Huntresses-in-training eyes.
But the two soon froze in sight seeing two exact copies of them with more monstrous features on them revealing to be Grimmified versions of themselves in pure shock with the G. Weiss speaking out with a hoarse and raspy voice, "Target… Weiss… Schnee…. Destroy… destroy…. Hurt…"
The two were stunned, by this while G. Weiss summons up a Grimm rapier while G. Blake releases her arms to show whip-like weapons revealing a split opening jaw licking at her original in hunger…
/////
All across Beacon Academy, various students battle the many Creatures of Grimm: Sage is seen charging at an Ursa then delivers a slash that knocks it back, while Neon rollerblades away from a Boarbatusk.
Coco opens fire on a Griffon as it lands, while Arslan is seen fighting an Ursa Major before it runs off to attack Nora, who fires at it with her grenade launcher. Ren is seen firing his guns at a retreating Beowolf before it drops dead.
The camera then dynamically zooms under an archway before panning up a building, slowing down until it reveals Cinder Fall, Emerald Sustrai, and Mercury Black standing on the rooftop, the latter filming the chaos with his Scroll with Cinder speaking out, "Beautiful."
Emerald with a sorrowful expression on her face replied, "It's almost sad."
Cinder simply showers in the delight at the destruction happening around her responding to her subordinates, "It's horrendous. Focus on the Atlesian Knights and Knightmare Frames being overwhelmed."
Mercury simply shrugs not caring about inflicting pain on others or else he gets the same treatment, "Oh, I'm getting all of it. What about our little help Vermillion or that psychopath?"
Cinder frowns at the mention of Tyrian while responding back about Vermillion's job, "Good. Continue the broadcast until the end. As for the two of them, Vermillion is using this chance to plunder anything of value. Tyrian is causing trouble for Ozpin Pawns."
*Shook*
Suddenly, a tremor rocks the three of them slightly Cinder walks off as Mercury continues filming with an evil grin on his face, while Emerald's expression only grows more worrisome with Cinder speaking out, "And do not miss what happens next."
"Miss what?"
*Thud*
Before they could register what happened the decapitated head of Vermillion soon cut off freshly clean blood making Cinder narrow her eyes and soon –
*SHING*
All three of them soon dodged a sword attack from their assailant with her twirling her sword with Mercury Scroll cut up as Cinder's lips twitch seeing the person attacking them, "Tch. Why if it isn't A2 security staff of Future Foundation HQ? What brings you all the way from Menagerie?"
A2 merely smirks placing the tip of her sword on the ground creating sparks coming closer to the three of them, "Oh nothing much but this shit show of a Vytal Festival? And of course, the master ordered all of us to capture Mercury and Emerald alive. You little terrorist well… you are with Salem can't blame me for this kind of work?"
Tilting her head innocently at that Cinder could only curse while Mercury seemed confused about what Jack Nights would want from him as Emerald got ready to fight for Cinder being the person to first save her from getting attacked.
A2 walks closer to them as much as possible but soon stops as her eyes land on someone eyeing her with narrowed eyes while A2 could only make a stiff smile getting the three attention, "Well then kiddies… it seems like I have a playmate to keep company…"
Cinder soon connects her eyes at G. Neo eyeing A2 while Cinder sighs a breath of relief speaking to Mercury and Emerald, "Emerald. Mercury. We have other business to attend to then entertain with this fight."
The two agreed to leave G. Neo to come down with a Grimm Umbrella with A2 trying to make some small talk, "So… are you going to start or – "
*Brrr*
Seeing the magic in G. Neo's eye light up made A2 shut up and ready her stance immediately not taking any longer than it needs to begin fighting.
*CLANG*

Inside his office, Ozpin watches the battle on three video feeds, one showing some buildings, the middle showing a group of Atlas soldiers struggling against a Mutant Deathstalker on Beacon's main avenue, and the last showing civilians stuck on a rooftop waving for help, while an Ursa slowly crawls up the side of the building.
Ozpin then starts to walk away from his desk, grabbing his cane in the process, before proceeding to the elevator…
*Shook*
However, he is stopped in his tracks when a sudden tremor shakes the ground mumbling to himself with worry in his eyes, "No… the Wyvern is going to wake up. This is not good. Not good indeed…"
Seeing this from his office he soon sees video footage of Grimm versions of Team RWBY, Neo, and Raven popping up feeling magic coming from them making him furrow his eyes seeing such creations appearing.
*Swoosh*
Not before long Ozpin sees something flying in the distance getting a clear view of Jack going straight toward it along with a branching flying aura separating with Ozpin speaking to himself, "I need to get to the battlefield immediately. I can trust Nights to keep that Wyvern in check. Original or not."
Turning around and going to the elevator the immortal reincarnator finally appears on the battlefield soon enough but…
Yet turning around soon enough Ozpin sees a Bullhead coming straight to his Headmaster's Office with Hazel's eyes burning with hatred towards him…
*BOOM*
A loud crash and explosion destroyed the Headmaster's Office with Ozpin protecting himself with an aura forcefield protecting him from any damage but...
*BAM*
"OZPIN!!!!"
A very enraged Hazel slams his fist on Ozpin's aura forcefield with cracks showing Hazel ignoring the pain with one thought in his mind to kill Ozpin.

*Shook*
Back in the city, Glynda and Qrow continue fighting, before they too are shaken by another tremor.
Qrow stabs his sword into the ground to keep himself standing while Glynda mumbles in terror, "No..."
*Swoosh*
While Glynda was busy getting worried about the Wyvern coming Qrow noticed a blue blur flashing in the sky and recognized the aura immediately, "Damn it… I hope you have something to keep that Grimm in check."
*Beep*
Hearing beeping sounds from their Scrolls Qrow reads it quickly along with a text from Jack making him pale knowing what to do next immediately after reading that his nieces are in danger but…
"AHAHAHA!!!"
A psychopathic laugh brought the two to their senses seeing a madman cutting off people and getting the two attention immediately.
Tyrian gazes his eyes at the two laughings maniacally at them screaming out his prey killing anybody in his path, "HAHAHAHA!!! COME DOGS OF OZPIN! COME AND BECOME SACRIFICES FOR OUR GODDESS!!! HAHAHAHA!!!!"

*Shoook*
Another tremor shakes Pyrrha as she battles an Ursa Major, with Sage and Scarlet piggyback riding on it with worried expressions on their faces.
*Swoosh*
Seeing a flash of blue light flying past the sky in the direction of where the shaking is happening Pyrrha was immediately worried, "Jack… please don't do something dangerous…"
/////
Elsewhere, a mountain starts to violently shake and crumble, as various body parts of a monstrous-looking Grimm are revealed, before the mountain completely breaks apart, releasing a titanic Wyvern.
"Grrr…."
"RAGHHH!!!!"
The Wyvern roars and flies over the abandoned Mountain Glenn, heading towards Beacon…
*Splosh*
*Splash*
As it flies, it exudes a black, tar-like substance that drops to the ground in the city of Vale and spawns various Grimm.
*Swoosh*
Coming straight towards the Grimm Wyvern nonstop a clone of Jack gets out a Capsule of his containing the name labeled 'Kiryu-mon 2.0.' with a serious expression on his face, "Ok Salem. Do you want to bring a monster fight? Then you better be prepared to face my new and improved Kiryu."
Getting enough distance Jack soon threw his capsule containing Kiryu yelling out at the top of his lungs, "Come on out Kiryu! I choose you!"
*Swoosh*
*Pop*
With C. Jack releasing Kiryu out from his capsule showing his true form offline immediately went inside the piolet room preparing to fight with Kiryu activating its eyes glowing golden yellow and roaring out getting the Wyvern standing coolly and roaring out at the Grimm, "RAAAAAGHHHH!!!!"
*Thud*
Landing down with C. Jack smiling crazily and secretly happy internally thinking to himself, 'Ha! I knew I would fight you beast! Not once but fucking twice a year I get to use Kiryu! Prepare to die mother fucker!'
Activating his systems Kiryu 2.0 is prepared for battle rushing towards the Grimm Wyvern stomping away the Grimm it spawns getting near the Vale.

Meanwhile the original was attacking all the Grimm getting close to him around the Vale Kingdom Walls without hesitation while searching around for where the Grimm members are at in a hurry, "Tch. When I find those fakes, they are so done for. If it wasn't for the fact, they can absorb my clones I would've called them back, but I know I can't."
*BAM*
Slamming his fist at a nearby Mutant Grimm killing it instantly with his fist panting feeling the exhaustion in his voice, "Pant… If it wasn't for the fact my clones are protecting the citizens and dealing with all the criminal syndicates all over the world, I would've called back my aura clones. Live and learn then regret, I guess."
Feeling the exhaustion coming off his clones getting drained with a scowl on his face having enough, "But if Salem wants to give me a bad day… then I should return one in kind."
Reaching out for his Scroll going over for his contacts with 2B at the ready calling her he immediately began to issue an order, "2B… issue order 66. I want Salem territory filled with enough worries to keep her busy. Contain. Capture. Protect at all cost."
The silence was at the other end but soon replied when 2B responded back, "Of course sir. Issuing order 66 right away. Initiate Code: Buster Call."
*Beep*
Ending the call Jack began to hunt down where the Grimm members are at using
