Ch.12 End of the Beginning

3rd Pov

In The Underground Vault

Cinder and Ozpin were fighting at high speeds. Cinder was pushed back causing the ground to burn the ground beneath her feet. Cinder then formed fiery crystals in mid-air and shot them at Ozpin. Ozpin speedily destroyed the crystals faster than the eye could see. After destroying all the fiery crystals, Ozpin charged forward and hit Cinder with his cane at high speeds. Cinder was hit back and her body erupted in flames as she levitated up into the air. The flames from Cinder were close to hitting Ozpin but Ozpin created a neon dark green dome shield around himself. Cinder fired a huge fiery blast towards Ozpin. Ozpin while encased in his green dome shield jumped towards the huge fiery blast from Cinder. A light erupted from the clash of power.

On The Beacon Air Field Docks

Port: "That's it, everybody on board! This is a mandatory evacuation!"

Dr Oobleck: "A safe zone has been established in Vale! Please, remain calm and listen to Atlas personnel!"

Weiss put a hand over her mouth while Zwei was by her feet. Ruby and Razor ran up behind Weiss. Everyone including Weiss turned to the two, Weiss grabbed Ruby's hand.

Weiss: "Ruby!"

Ruby: "Oh, I found you!"

Weiss: "Ruby, where have you-"

Ruby: "Don't worry, I'm fine! What's going on?"

Unsure of what to say, Weiss lowers her gaze sadly.

Ruby: "Weiss? What is it?"

Weiss steps aside, giving Ruby a clear view of Josh, who holding his broken wrist, Blake and Yang lying on the ground. All have bandages wrapped around their wounds, and the latter is unconscious. Behind them sit Nora and Ren, with Owen and Kazey are with them as well as they try keeping everyone else stable and calm as possible. Blake then reaches over and places her hand on Yang's.

Blake: "I'm sorry."

Ruby reaches out and opens her mouth to say something, but in her emotional state, she doesn't know what to say. Blake curls up, closing her eyes.

Blake: "I'm so sorry."

Ruby: "Yang..."

Sun: "Hey... They're gonna be okay. The soldiers have a ship ready to take you guys to Vale."

Nora: "But Jaune, Pyrrha, and Brisa are still missing."

Ruby: "What?!"

Sun: "Look, guys, that giant Grimm is circling the school! Even the White Fang are pulling out! We all have to go, now!"

Ren: "We're not... leaving!"

He stands up, but then falls to his knees as he grunts in pain. Sun turns and casts a worried look at Yang and Blake.

Ruby: "I'll find them... I'll find them and I'll bring them back."

Weiss: "No. We find them. We'll be back."

Cyra: "Me and Raiden will come with you."

Josh: "Don't bother looking for Brisa!"

Cyra: "Wait why?"

Josh: "She's the traitor alright!"

This comment shocked everyone. As Cyra was going to say something she got a message on her scroll from Brisa.

Brisa: 'Listen to me, Josh has probably told you that I'm the traitor well he isn't wrong. But I need you to know this Pyrrha is in danger, I need you to go save her but don't tell the others, Take Raiden with you, once you get to Pyrrha give her what I put in your daggers if she is injured. I'm sorry. I love you guys.'
