They say when a rose blossoms, it is one of the most beautiful experiences to witness. What they don't know is that under that growth... there are things hidden from the world, things that shouldn't blossom, but... You cannot stop it from growing, you must allow it to become what it needs to become. Even if you do not want the very being that brings you joy to become... like you.
The Saiyan Rose
Volume 3 Chapter 12
End of the Beginning
Ruby and Weiss are on their way back to Beacon campus when Weiss' Scroll begins ringing.
Weiss: It's Jaune! (She answers) Where are you?
Jaune: (In the street somewhere in Vale. There's panic in his voice) Weiss! Please, you have to stop her!
Weiss: What!?
Jaune: Pyrrha! She's going after that woman at the top of the tower! She doesn't stand a chance!
Weiss: Jaune, what are you talking about!? Where are you?
Jaune: (He shouts into the Scroll's speaker) Don't worry about me! (He leans against a wall and speaks at a normal volume, his voice full of sadness now) Please, you have to save Pyrrha.
Weiss: We will. Are you okay?
With one last flare of emotion, Jaune screams and throws his Scroll onto the ground, breaking it. He collapses onto his hands and knees, crying.
Jaune: Please...
Weiss: Jaune? Jaune!
The ground shakes, alerting Ruby and Weiss to the danger that approaches them. The Wyvern flies into view, circling Beacon Tower with black ooze dripping from it. It perches on one of the arches stemming from the tower and utters a screech. Ruby draws Crescent Rose, shifting it into its scythe form in preparation for the Grimm spawning from the ooze.
Ruby: I have a plan.
Weiss: (Draws Myrtenaster) You always do.
At the top of the tower, in Ozpin's office, a large amount of smoke flows out from the elevator, masking the entrance of Cinder Fall. She confidently strides to the window across the room, a smirk on her face. As if sensing her presence, the Wyvern climbs up to the top, peers at her through the window, and screeches.
Cinder: (With a gentle, comforting tone) Shhhh... This is your home now.
The Wyvern stares at her and utters a shorter, quieter screech. Cinder backs away from the window and holds her hand out to the side, creating a fireball in her palm. The sound of sparks distracts her, and she looks over her shoulder at the elevator, her fireball dissipating. After a few moments, the sparks come to a stop, and immediately upon the elevator doors opening, Pyrrha's spear flies toward Cinder, who casually leans to her right to dodge with a smirk on her face. Out of nowhere, (Y/N) appears from behind and kicks Cinder's head, sending her hurtling towards a wall.
Pyrrha: Professor Ro-!
(Y/N): Pyrrha, get the hell out of here!!!
Pyrrha: No!! I'm going to fight and you're not going to stop me!
Cinder: Would you look at that... The Invincible Girl and the Saiyan... (looks at him) You barely look like you can stand on your legs.
(Y/N): (grits his teeth)
Cinder: I suppose Frieza did his best, but I'm thankful for him leaving you exhausted. I'm betting you can't even transform.
(Y/N): (She's right... I can barely go into Super Saiyan... but I'm a lot stronger than I was before) I don't need to transform for someone like you. (smirks)
