The Wyvern flew adjacent to the stolen airship before flying faster than it. Ruby looks up to see the massive Grimm before she notices dozens of Griffons flying above the airship while following the Wyvern.

One of the Griffons landed in front of Ruby, but she took care of it quickly with a few slashes from Crescent Rose. But as Ruby was taking a few breaths, a click of a camera is heard. Ruby looks behind her to see Neo in her normal clothes with her scroll out.

From inside the airship, Torchwick receives a photo of Ruby with a message saying, "Guess who?" 

"Oh, you can not be serious!" Torchwick says as he picks up his cane and walks out.



Back at the dining hall, Blake slowly backs away from the shattered window that she was next to. But she stops as she hears Adam say something.

"Is this what you're doing again? Running away? You have to learn that running away won't work forever, Blake." Adam says to Blake.

"Why are you doing this?" Blake asks Adam.

"I thought that you would be by my side throughout our revolution. But once you left on the train, I realized I had to take action faster. I couldn't let any of your disgusting human friends stop what I had wanted. Today is just a spark for the goal's fire." Adam says to Blake.

"I won't let you do this!" Blake says before charging at Adam with her swords in hand.

Blake raises her swords into the air to swing them down at Adam, but he takes his sword out and gives one slice. Blake turns into a shadow as she appears behind Adam, but he kicks her away. Adam turned around quickly and killed a Creep Grimm that was about to attack them.

"This isn't about your efforts, Blake. It will happen, and if you must die, then so be it." Adam says.



Across from the dining hall, the robots and Grimm were still running rampant around the grounds while the students fought back. Reese and Neon used their better movement to go around and cut down any Atlesian Knight that was shooting and do small damaged towards the Grimm and the Paladins. Team ABRN surrounded a Griffon in an attempt to keep it still and attack from there. Sun and Neptune try to hold back a Paladin with their weapons while Ren and Nora push back a group of Atlesian Knights.

Yatsuhashi pushed back a Griffon while Lady and Trish controlled the amount of Atlesian Knights that were coming to fight them. Then, Weiss appears in front of the Paladin as she rockets herself with her glyph towards it. Weiss tries to stab her rapier into the Paladin, but it hits her with its arm.

Yatsuhashi tries to hold back the fist of the other Paladin with his sword, but the Paladin pushes him back before knocking him out of the way. The Paladin turns around as it approaches Ren, who is unaware of it.

"Look out!" Nora shouts as she pushes Ren out of the way.

But after pushing him out of the way, Nora got punched by the Paladin.

"Nora! No!" Ren shouts, but he is punched by the Paladin as well.

Coco, Neptune, Trish, and Lady line themselves in front of the Paladin and begin shooting their weapons at the Paladin while Velvet stood behind them.

"Uh, this is bad." Neptune says as none of the shots seem to work.

"Well, I guess now's a better time than any. Velvet!" Coco says to Velvet, who turns in excitement.

"Really?" Velvet excitedly says.

"Just make 'em count." Coco says.

Velvet nods before walking towards the two Paladins. Weiss then gets up from the ground as she looks at Coco.
