RWBY: The Remnant Past

Chapter 29

Atlas City, Atlas. 2-25-20

Nathaniel Ducked and weave in the streets of Atlas, he, as well as Blake, were covering one another as they traverse the ruin city.

As the two navigated the debris-strewn streets of Atlas, they kept a vigilant eye out for any signs of danger. The city was in ruins, the once-proud buildings reduced to rubble by the relentless onslaught of war. But amidst the destruction, there were still pockets of resistance, fighting tooth and nail to reclaim their home from the clutches of the enemy.

"Keep moving." Nathaniel urged, his voice tense with determination. "We need to find a way to break through their defenses."

Blake nodded, her eyes scanning their surroundings for any signs of movement. "Agreed. But we need to proceed with caution. The Nazis could be lurking around any corner."

As they pressed forward, they could hear the distant sounds of gunfire echoing through the streets, a constant reminder of the chaos that surrounded them. But despite the danger, they pressed on, their resolve unwavering in the face of adversity.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of footsteps approaching from behind. Nathaniel and Blake spun around, their weapons at the ready, only to relax slightly when they saw Willow Cobalt and Alice Arroyo approaching.

"Any sign of the others?" Nathaniel asked, his brow furrowed with concern.

Willow shook her head. "Not yet. But we'll keep looking. We can't afford to lose anyone in this fight."

Nathaniel nodded in agreement. "Agreed. Let's keep moving. We need to find a way to turn the tide of this battle.

Suddenly a black and red Samurai sword landed right in the middle of the group, one that Blake knows all too well.

"Adam." She whispered as she and the others tired to look for him, but found nothing.

"Oh, I don't think Mr. Taurus will be joining us yet." The Voice of Cinder Fall echoed throughout the streets.

The group tensed at the sound of Cinder's voice, their senses on high alert as they scanned their surroundings for any sign of the elusive antagonist.

"Where are you, Cinder?" Nathaniel called out, his voice laced with defiance.

Cinder's laughter echoed through the streets, taunting and malevolent. "Oh, I'm everywhere and nowhere, my dear. But I assure you, I'm closer than you think."

Suddenly, flames erupted from the ground, forming a ring around the group, trapping them within a fiery barrier. The heat was intense, the flames licking hungrily at their surroundings as Cinder materialized before them, her eyes burning with malice. instead of her usual uniform, she now wears a Waffen-SS officer clothing specifically made for her.

"I must admit, I'm impressed that you made it this far." Cinder said, her voice dripping with disdain. "But I'm afraid your journey ends here."

Nathaniel gripped his weapon tightly, his jaw set in determination. "We won't go down without a fight."

Cinder's lips curled into a smirk. "Oh, I wouldn't have it any other way." With a flick of her wrist, she summoned a barrage of fiery projectiles, launching them at the group with deadly precision.

Nathaniel, as well as Blake, Willow, and Alice dogged the attacks made by the crazy Fall Maiden. and with each dodge, Cinder gets more and more angrier.

Nathaniel and his companions moved with practiced agility, their movements fluid and precise as they evaded the deadly projectiles.

"Stay focused!" Nathaniel called out to his team, his voice cutting through the chaos of battle. "We can't afford to let our guard down."
