RWBY team COMBAT

Ultimatum

(Vortex, brawl, Yang, Ren, Jaune, Oscar and Emerald are left at what remains of Monstra. As the large Grimm decays into the sky above)

Vortex: I live. Brawl you still with us?

Brawl: I saw the face of god in that explosion. And it was awesome! Let's do that again.

(Yang gets a video call on her scroll and answers it to see it was Blake, who is biting her finger nail in concern. She brightens up when she sees Yang answers the call)

Yang: Blake?

Blake: Yang! Are you okay? Where are you?

Jaune: Yeah, we're fine.

Vortex: Is everyone there all right? Did you guys free onslaught?!

Blake: We're... alive. And no sorry. This'll help though. Guys! They're okay.

Swindle: Yes I know it.

Blastoff: Great to hear form you guys.

(Oscar gets up and Ren tries to help him. They look over at Emerald on her knees not too far away, all alone)

Oscar: What do we do about her?

Vortex: We can't leave her can we?

Emerald: Hazel?

(Emerald looks down at her empty palms as black flakes from the dead Grimm fall around her)

Weiss: I'm sending you a map. You're in the agricultural area. Just head to this access point to reach the red line subway tunnel then follow the route I've drawn for you.

Jaune: Got it. We'll see you soon.

(Blake waves and the call ends)

Vortex: We should take her with us brawl.

Brawl: On it. I promise to watch out for her.

(He goes over to her and takes her weapon as he picks her up in on arm and carries her)

Emerald: Hey let me go! Some girl might liked to be pick up but sure as hell don't!

Vortex: Oh be quiet your coming with us or would you rather we leave you here?

Emerald: fine!

(Vortex, brawl, Jaune, Ren, Yang, and Oscar are walking through the dark subway tunnel. As brawl carries Emerald ahead of them with her on her face. Yang has her gauntlet trained on Emerald with one hand, and is holding Emerald's guns in the other. Meanwhile, Ren and Jaune are using their Scrolls as flashlights)

Yang: You can't be serious. You want us to work with her?

Vortex: What we need all the help we can get?

Oscar: I'm just saying it makes the most sense. We're all enemies of Salem, including her.

Emerald: No, I'm with blondie. You don't like me, I don't like you. So how about big guy lets me go and we just part ways and you never have to see me again.

Jaune: You're not going anywhere. Not after everything you've done.

Ren: We can't let all of our actions stem from fear. If she could help us, I think we should consider it.

Vortex: Yeah maybe she knows stuff that could help us.

(Ren looks towards Emerald and he sees purple petals flicker around her with his semblance)

Yang: She is part of the reason I have this. (holds up her arm) I'm not going to just forgive her. Everything that happened at Beacon. She lied to us, tricked us. She is dangerous.
