Everyone watched in horror as cinder's spear headed for ruby and once they heard impact they winced once everyone looked expecting to see Ruby impaled, instead they see Strand impaled, he breathed heavily as he felt blood come out of his mouth, the spear disappeared and he fell to his knees right in front of ruby, Ruby looks down in horror seeing strand bleeding out. Jeremiah leaves an unconscious weiss on the floor bleeding from the skin around eye, he runs over to strand and he kneels down standing over him, the fight rages on around them. Ruby slowly makes his way over to keith, keith hugs her but he feels ruby go limp as she once again passes out from exhaustion, keith looks over at neo

Keith: Keep her safe, i'll take care of this alright

Jeremiah sat next to strand

Jeremiah: Come on man you can't die here, please don't fucking die

Strand grabs jeremiah's hand and squeezes it

Strand: It's alright, i'm good i made a choice...

Jeremiah: Why them! Why'd you do it for them!

Strand: They've got something special... Something i wanted to do when i was their age...

Jeremiah: But why

Strand: Cause i can do whatever the fuck i want... Now you need to get out of here

Jeremiah: I'm not leaving...

Strand: I'm not letting you watch me die, so go with your girlfriend or something... I'm good

Keith stands over jeremiah and strand, he has his blade ready for what needed to be done, Jeremiah looks at Keith and tries to attack him but the huntsman blocks it and pushes him to the ground, he lifts his blade over strand but the older criminal lifts his hand up

Keith: A little late to beg for mercy...

Strand: I ain't begging... I.. I just need time... How about you hear a dying man's last words...

Keith: Make it quick...

Strand: Didn't think i had much time to even say it... l.. Look your a brat and a piece of sh.. Shit but you've got guts... and you also have a special girl... M..My wife was the s..same way... She had the same.. Gift as your girl... s..same drive... D...Don't let her go... Y..You do the best to k..keep her s..safe... D..don't let anyone take her away from you... A... and if they try... Y..you... Kill them

Strand began gargling on his own blood, keith looks down with a hint of sympathy

Keith: Why'd you do it?

Strand: I... I couldn't S..save m...My w...wife, a..nd i.. I H...ave.. N..no...other...r..reason to b..be ..around....

Strand's eyes close and he takes his finale breath, he goes limp and keith wipes his face from sweat, he looks up and sees his dad and oscar fighting lionheart, he watches as oscar kicks the headmaster down the stairs right into Hazel, the large man picks up Lionheart by the collar and looks at him.

Hazel: The huntsman i get but the boy? He's making a fool of you

Lionheart: That's no boy, that's ozpin! He's already reincarnated

Hazel looks over at Oscar and glares at him with rage

Hazel: OZPIN! You thought you could hide from me!

Ozpin: Oh no

Hazel rips off his overcoat as he growls, he grabs dust crystals from his pant pockets and he stabs them into his arms

Hazel: You'll pay for what you did, you'll die over and over again!

The large man is charged with electricity dust and he releases a loud battle cry
