after that incident yang did confront jaune about her mother and he was all too happy to summon her for her and have them get to know one another and of course yang asked what made jaune better then tai, and she answered he was simply stronger then him and that is what drawn her to him, and is so willing to serve him

this caused yang to wonder just how strong jaune was

the vytal festival has arrived and team RWBY had made a huge mess in an attempt to capture roman torchwick which they failed

the dance came i of course invited blake who happily accepted at the dance i noticed someone enter the elevator to the CCT tower and so followed them

"why hello again it's a pleasure to meet you face to face i can't stop you since you seem to be already downloading whatever virus you implemented but i do wanna talk

"oh and what is it you wish to discuss" the woman said

"i wish to meet the queen and strike a deal with her i may have a means of removing her immortality, without all the relic hunting just to summon the gods as quickly as possible so they wipe out humanity which i am pretty sure won't work anyway" i said

"you know of my mistress has the old man told you" she asked

"no i knew before i even came to this academy in fact i knew even before i confronted you the first time really though meeting a maiden was good proof" i said

"and what is this deal" 

"i wish to make what i call a dungeon city all of the grimm will be held within this dungeon and it will be the duty of adventurers or hunters to clear it out, of course i need the queen for that" i said

"you need other things as well" the woman said

"i have everything else practically already gather i simply need the queen" i said

"hmm very well, meet me at these coordinate and i'll take you to her" the woman said

"works for me, i will see you there miss fall" i said as i left through the elevator allowing her to make her escape

after the party i was called to the headmasters office which didn't surprise me

"so this is the boy you spoke of, he doesn't look like much" general ironwood said

"sting my enemies to death suzumebachi, breath of thunder first form thunder clap and flash" i chanted as i moved like lightening ending up behind the man who coughed up blood and a butterfly appeared on his chest

"i prefer to use fire but i can use lightning as well, if i touch you in the same spot with suzumebachi again you die instantly" i said darkly giving the message don't insult me as he slowly got back to his feet but he was leaning over and holding his chest his aide another schnee holding her weapon

"general your orders" she asked

"stand down ozpin isn't making a move meaning this was to put me in my place well played" ironwood said

"i don't work for ozpin" i said his eyes widened

"WHAT" he yelled

"that is correct, you see Mr arc knows everything about me and i know everything about him unlike me who has no vision including no means to defeat salem he does, he has a vision for salem and the grimm that even if we defeat salem won't disappear since they come even before her" ozpin said

"so what is this grand dream of yours" ironwood said

"i won't say as i don't trust atlas at all, i would speak with any of the other kingdoms except for atlas your kingdom is the definition of corrupt, especially when you are on jacques schnee's payroll, all you must know is i intend to make use of salem and put her on a leash" i said

"and how do you intend to do that" ironwood asked

"by giving her exactly what she wants and it isn't the maidens or the relics they are just required for what she hoped would occur" i said

"what" ironwood asked

"you know what happens if the relics are put together yes" i asked

"i do, the gods return, if humanity has changed for the better they would rejoin us, if not then they would wipe us out" ironwood said

"yes including her" i said he looked confused

"do you know ozpin's ability" i asked

"he can come back from the dead by hijacking peoples bodies" ironwood said causing ozpin to flinch that was a blunt way to put it

"why, why is this necessary why is it that after how many years of back and forth with salem they are still at an impasse" i asked he shook his head not understanding

"because salem can't die she is entirely immortal, and she hates it, i have away of potentially removing her immortality, and in return she helps me with my dream on the dragon continent away from all of the kingdoms and away from ozpin who's manipulative and atlas who's corrupt" i explained his eyes widened

"is this true ozpin, can she really not die" ironwood asked

"as it stands at this moment no she cannot" ozpin said gravely

"and you have a way of removing it" ironwood asked me i shrugged

"i have no actual idea if it will work or not i haven't tested it, i don't have a supply of immortals to test it on and no i won't tell you how it works ironwood cause then you will want to figure out how it works yourself and your kingdom is already corrupt and way too powerful as it is" i said he sighed

"very well, but that would mean meeting................her....................wait the CCT tower" ironwood said in understanding

"yep it was the same woman up there that attacked amber" i said

"i want a liaison, you claim us too powerful but we are an entire kingdom you are one person, you should not hold all this power in your hands without being checked" ironwood said

"i don't mind having one of your people ghosting me so long as they don't mess it up" i said with a shrug

"winter, you are under his command if his plan works you are to report to me via scroll and remain by his side i want to know what your grand plan is" ironwood said

"it isn't bad as i said i intend to be in the dragon continent and stay in the dragon continent" i said
