Monstra Corpse

Monstra's corpse is shown to still be dissolving. In a spot on the carcass, trails of energy condense... Happy can be seen on one of the buildings in Atlas as it falls, laughing as people can be heard screaming. He then feels something, and his smile grows wider, before turning to Jasmine Brax's apartment complex and giggles before summoning and Teryx.

Atlas Vault

Down in the Atlas Vault, Winter Schnee charges at James Ironwood, swinging down her sword onto his prosthetic left arm. She then draws her smaller one and attempts to stab him with it, but Ironwood dodges and jumps back. He then tries to swing his hand cannon, but Winter jumps up on top of a nearby pillar.

Ironwood: Winter do not blame me!

Ironwood fires his cannon, and Winter moves out of the way as the blast destroys the top of the pillar. Winter then creates five glyphs that launch large ice shards towards the General. Ironwood rolls out of the way.

Ironwood: I have sacrificed everything!

Winter: No, you have sacrificed everyone else! You closed the borders; you squeezed Mantle until it broke!

The two continue trading blows. The weapons lock as Ironwood's cannon begins charging up again.

Ironwood: I've only done what's best for Remnant, and no one is grateful!

Ironwood draws the white Due Process and uses it to pistol whip Winter, disorienting her.

Central Location

In the pocket dimension, Cinder Fall and Penny Polendina fly at each other, using their respective Maiden powers to clash. They fly around as people continue to run towards the portal leading to Vacuo. Cinder launches a fireball hitting Penny in the back. Donald Azuris leaps into the fray and grabs Cinder in his hybrid form and the two stumble around in the air as he bites her shoulder. She then tries to use her Grimm arm to grab Penny, but a Queen Lancer summoned by Weiss Schnee is shown to fly by and get Penny out of the way. Nora Valkyrie watches the crowd of people running for the Vacuo portal. Jaune Arc and Fresh Baked Cookies look at each other, then to Nora.

Jaune: Priority one.

Nora looks back to her leader and they exchange nods, continuing with the evacuation.

Back on the Queen Lancer summon...

Penny: Weiss, all she ever wanted was the Maiden power. I can buy you all time.

Weiss: But, Penny...

Suddenly, Weiss is struck in the back by a fireball, causing her Queen Lancer summon to disappear. They fall onto one of the platforms, both of their Aura's flicker. Donald is seen fighting Cinder as he subconsciously used his own glyphs to leap around and attack her from all sides. Cinder quickly catches on and attacks Donald twice with her blades, before using fire on her foot to kick him to the ground as his Aura flickers and he reverts to normal, groaning before losing conscious. Cinder lands nearby and smirks evilly. Penny gasps as Cinder looks to Weiss, the Staff of Creation next to her. Penny suddenly gets up and blocks her path.

Penny: I'm right here! I'm what you want!

Cinder: I want it all...

Cinder launches herself forward, but suddenly is kicked in the face by Blake Belladonna, pushed back some distance away from them. Blake then looks to Weiss.

Blake: Get up!

Weiss does so, grabbing Myrtenaster and the Staff. She then runs off as Blake and Penny face Cinder, their weapons at the ready. Donald groans as he moves hi shawl to cover his face that no one was looking at.
