"Weiss, I'm sorry. I just didn't want to see you get hurt." Drake apologized. "I can't beeve you did that in front of everyone, Drake! You're So embarrassing." Weiss sighed. "Well, I'm sorry for trying to help, okay? Why are you So mad at me, Weiss? For Christ sake, you were on the floor being beaten! What was I supposed to do, Weiss?" Drake asked, raising his voice. "I had the situation under control, Drake! How dare you think that I can't take care of myself!" Weiss yelled. "You did not have the situation under control. you were pinned to the floor taking hits!" Drake said to her. "I was going to get her off me and win the fight!" Weiss told him. "What was the fight going to solve, anyway? Velvet said that Sylvia was upset because of you, so Let's talk about that. What did you do to her, Weiss?" Drake asked. "Nothing! I did Nothing to her! Don't you trust me, your own girlfriend?" Weiss asked with a sad look in her eyes. "You go and talk to Sylvia, then you came back in without her saying that she went off somewhere and then Velvet comes in saying that Sylvia is upset because of you. What did you do to her?" Drake asked.

Ruby turned to Blake. "Uh, should we go? I feel really awkward watching them fight like this." Ruby whispered to Blake. "Yes, that would be best. I really don't think we should be here while they argue." Blake replied. "Are you kidding? This is awesome!" Yang Exclaimed with a bowl of popcorn in her hands. "Come on, Yang. Let's go." Ruby said, dragging Yang out of the room with Blake following. "Do you think I'm weak? Is that it?" Weiss asked. "I couldn't really leave you on the floor talking hits like that. I don't think You're weak, Weiss." Drake replied.

Ruby, Blake and Yang saw Sylvia walking towards the door. "Uh, Hey. Is Drake in there?" She asked. "Yeah, but it's kind of a bad time. He and Weiss are arguing." Ruby told her. 'This is great. If What she says is true, then Maybe they'll break up and Weiss will be completely out of my way!' Sylvia thought to herself and smiled. "Oh No! I hope they don't break up!" Sylvia faked even caring at all. "I hope they don't. They're cute together." Yang said. "Well, I have something really important to tell Drake and it can't Wait." Sylvia said. "I guess you Can,.since it's important. Let's go to the library, you two." Ruby said as she, Blake and Yang walked away.

Sylvia opened the door slowly. "I don't need you, Drake!" Weiss yelled. "I'm sorry. Is this a bad time?" Sylvia asked. Weiss was furious. She was sure that Sylvia would stay away from Drake from that point forward, but here she was. "Don't worry, Sylvia. I was just about to leave anyway." Drake got up. "What? Please don't leave, Drake!" Weiss pleaded. "I thought you didn't need me, Weiss." Drake said as he and Sylvia left the room. Weiss let her face fall into her pillow and started sobbing. "She... She knew that I'd be in here and she did that just to make me mad. Why would she be So heartless? She'll pay for this. Oh, she'll pay." She whispered to herself.

"So, What did you want to see me for?" Drake asked. "I have something to tell you. It's... Really bad." Sylvia said. "What is it you need to tell me, Sylvia?" Drake asked. "River sent some guys to come get us and we need to go now." Sylvia explained. "Right now? Can't I say goodbye? I need to tell Weiss." Drake said. "Drake, I know you love her but we have to go now and we can't tell anyone. If we tell people it will only cause a panic and then everyone would know of our past." Sylvia told him. "I- I don't want to leave Weiss." Tears started to form in Drake's eyes. "I'm So sorry, Drake but we have to go now. Please remember that even if it may feel like it, You're never alone. Remember that, okay?" Sylvia told him. "There they are! Restrain them!" River commanded as two White Fang members ran towards Drake and Sylvia. Sylvia grabbed Drake's wrist and the two ran out of Beacon as fast as they could.

The two ran until they were completely out of sight. "Shoot to wound, not to Kill." River told the two White Fang members and one of them pulled out a small black handgun. "Do it." River demanded. He fired and the bullet hit between Drake and Sylvia. Adrenaline started to pump through Drake and Sylvia's bodies as soon as the shot was fired and they sped up their pace tremendously. "Leave us alone! If You're trying to get us back it won't work!" Sylvia shouted at them. "Don't have anything to say, Drake? You're speechless. That's a first." River smiled. Drake was too depressed to respond. He simply focused on getting away as fast as he could. "Just leave us alone! This won't work!" Sylvia yelled.

Weiss walked out of her dorm and saw Coco. She looked like she was in shock, but she dismissed it. "Coco, have you seen Drake?" Weiss asked. Coco looked up at her slowly. "Weiss... I'm So sorry, but..." She trailed off. "But What?" Weiss asked. "I saw him and Sylvia being chased by two guys. They ran where I couldn't see them and... And I heard a gunshot." Coco started to choke up. "No... No, that can't be... You're lying! He's not dead!" Weiss shouted with tears in her eyes. "I'm sorry but it's true, Weiss." Coco told her. Weiss started to cry. "B- But Why? Why is this happening? Did you see who it was?" Weiss asked quietly. "I couldn't see their faces. I'm sorry." Coco looked down. "He... He's not dead! You're lying!" Weiss shouted. "I'm not lying! I'm sorry but it's true. You have to believe me."

"I... I can't believe I just left her like that. I can't believe this." Drake said quietly. Him and Sylvia managed to find a safe place to hide. "Don't worry about it, Drake. You're not a bad person for doing that. You didn't even know you would be leaving." Sylvia smiled. "I just wish I could have said goodbye. Now I'm alone." Drake said as he slowly looked down. "You're not alone, Drake. You'll never be alone. You've got me." Sylvia smiled and hugged him. Drake looked behind himself and frowned. "Well Beacon, I guess this is goodbye."

Note - This is the final part in the book and I will continue the story in RWBY: Silver Moon. I won't release it straight away So I Can have time to focus on Unknown Contact and another book I'm thinking of writing.
