3rd Person POV

Everyone stood frozen on their spot as they looked at Salme who had a calm look on her face with a smile. Cinder was also with her, but they chose to ignore her since she wasn't the main priority. Salem calmly walked towards everyone else who took a few steps back as they aimed their weapons at her. 

Salem: I must give you all credit. I can't remember the last time I ever had to go and take care of a bunch of nuisances myself. Particularly, you two. 

As Salem said this she pointed at Ruby and (Y/N). Yang and Qrow instantly stood in front of Ruby as they glared at Salem, while (Y/N) pushed Blake behind him as he stood in front of her protectively. 

Cinder: (Fools. No matter how much they protect one another. Salem will still kill them all.) 

As for Salem, she smirked at their actions. 

Salem: It's adorable seeing you all protect your loved ones, but fear not. You all will be together once I have killed you all. 

Ozpin: Why the hell are you here Salem!?!?

Salem's smirk disappeared as she looked at Ozpin who walked in front of everyone else while glaring at Salem. 

Salem: Ozma. 

Ozpin: I will not ask again. Why are you here!? 

Salem: Isn't it obvious. To kill those two. They have been a thorn on my side ever since Beacon. Disrupting my plans, picking themselves back up, and still fighting this pointless war that only has one way of ending. With my victory. 

Salem then motioned towards (Y/N) and Ruby again, making their eyes widen. Everyone looked at the two with worry. Blake, Yang, and Qrow in particular who glared back at Salem with anger.

Qrow: (You won't kill her too. I won't let you.) 

Ozpin: If you think I'll let you get anywhere near-!!!

Salem: Ozma, why care so much about these students of yours. You will outlive them all. It's a fact. Their lives are meaningless compared to ours. Why fight for them?

Ozpin: Because their lives are worth more than yours and mine combined. We had our chance at life, let them have theirs. 

Salem: My chance of living my life was taken from me! All my life, locked away in that damn tower, only for me to then lose the man I loved immediately after I left it! You had your chance at life! Mine was taken away from me!

As Salem said this a dark reddish aura surrounded her as a huge gust of wind was sent towards everyone, making everyone be sent back to the front of the train, except for, (Y/N), Ruby, and Blake who held onto (Y/N). Ruby and (Y/N) looked back at everyone. 

Ruby and (Y/N): Guys!!!!

The entire train then began to shake due to Salem's power making the passengers fear for their life. Back on top of the train, everyone slowly got up while making sure they didn't get sent flying off the train. 

Jaune: Just how powerful is she!?

Pyrrha: That doesn't matter, we need to get back to Ruby and (Y/N)! They could use our help!

Ozpin: Affirmative! There's no telling what she'll do to them! 

Everyone then tried to make their back to them until tendrils formed underneath them and stopped everyone from moving forward. 

Sun: Damnit!!!

Neptune: You have got to be kidding me!

Yang and Weiss tried to break through the tendrils with their weapons but couldn't.
