3rd POV

Arendelle's transition from a peaceful kingdom to a full-on warzone was not taken lightly. The party that was meant to celebrate the beginning of Queen Elsa's journey ended abruptly. The royal guards have been dispatched to deal with an unknown threat. Unsurprisingly they were outmatched by the Marleyan soldiers, who had guns and advanced armor and technology. Seeing the current situation, the visitors from afar decided to step in and help. Now the scene shifts to see some soldiers trying to attack some of the citizens, only to be cut in half by a red arc-like projectile.

Adam: Get to the castle. We'll take it from here.

The child's mother thanked him before picking up her son and running for the castle doors. Adam then heard guns clicking as he looked behind him to see many soldiers aimed at him. Though any others in this situation would be tensed, he merely smirked as he gripped Wilt with his right hand as his left slowly squeezed the trigger on Blush.

Adam: Come at me, human scum. Make this interesting.

They started firing, which Adam dodged as he jumped upward and fired Blush and used his semblance to send out another Moon Slicer at the group with added momentum. When he landed, a few soldiers were behind him, but then a figure jumped in and grabbed two by the back of their necks before raising them and slamming them back on the ground. The figure then dodged gunfire before revealing claws that slashed through the soldiers' armor, killing them. The figure seemed not to be wearing any footwear as claws also appeared on their feet, which helped them slash through the soldiers.

Adam: Hmm, not bad, Ymir.

The figure, which was revealed to be Ymir, has taken off her suit jacket and shoes, which only left her with her pants and her turtle neck, which had blood stains from the minor blood bath she had.

Ymir: Not in the mood. These bastards came out of nowhere before I got a chance to... Take a swing.

Adam deadpanned at this as he quickly drew on a soldier with Wilt without even looking.

Adam: Are the siblings safe?

Ymir: What do you think? It's the first thing I made sure of when I heard this shit went down... Though mad respect for the girls who are fighting in a dress.

She said, making a crystallized shield to block gunfire before throwing the shield, which managed to decapitate a few of the soldiers. Her statement wasn't far-fetched since we can also see Winter, Weiss, and Cinder fighting in their formal wear. Winter fought off the soldiers with her weapon Verglas and used their family technique of glyphs. Weiss managed to find a rapier so she could join the fight. Cinder used her flames to make a tornado as she went high up before slamming back down, sending the soldiers around her away.
