Georges POV

I hugged them and Blake spoke up, "we been having the same nightmare for awhile... At first, we thought nothing of them, but after the first week... It appears we have shared the dream somehow, like its a meeting in real life." She said.

"But it's a nightmare, always the same thing, Beacon is burning to a crisp, and everyone... Are burning in a blackish flame, then the figure appears, something that looks like the Grimm humans we fought all them years ago... But it has more details, it seems feminine, and she laughs a cold laugh, saying how this will happen to us, we can't fight back and our fears are right in front of us, and we got a name...." Said Weiss.

"I was looking through the library when I stumbled onto an old book, as I looked through it, I saw something, a picture and a name... The name we heard in our dreams, the picture fits the outline of the figure... Salem, the Goddess of Grimm" said Blake.

I saw Ozpin look even more worried then before, "are you sure ?" He said, "yes, we are" said Ruby, Ozpin turned to Ironwood, "James, I'm going to need you here with help" he said, walking to the window, "don't worry, I'll be there with a small contingent of soldiers in a matter of hours, I'll leave for Vale immediately" he said, as he got up and the screen disappeared.

"Sir ?" I asked, Ozpin looked at me, "Qrow, Goodwitch, Winter, Cinder... It looks like our worst fears have come to light" he said, "Salem, the Goddess of Grimm, a supposed myth... If only it was true, she is real, and she is worse then a demon, and before you ask, I only know she is real when someone told me about her." He said and looked to Cinder Falls "Cinder, you had dealings with her before, making plans to destroy humanity, then you came on our side, sealing her only link to our world and leaving her in the spiritual plains, how can she be here ?" He asked.

I had to cut in, "wait, hold it a moment, you mean to say there is an evil, all Grimm goddess that was planning to kill all of humanity... And you didn't think to tell me ?" I asked, "well, you were dead, and the fact that she was trapped meant she was no threat to us... At the time, there would have been no point in telling you, even after you came back" he said.

Cinder spoke up, "she is powerful, and can manipulate Grimm, even change them sometimes, she hates humanity and wants the world to be hers, and free of humanity"
"Wow, that's quite the goal" I say, "that's not all, there is someone else... We hear him laugh sometimes, I know that voice... It's Adam, I'm sure of it" said Blake, "the leader of the White Fang, who went missing awhile back, shortly after you defeated me George" said Cinder.

"I thought you were the leader of the White Fang ?" I said. "No, why would they follow a Human if they hated humanity at the time ?" Said Cinder, I rolled my eyes, "AGAIN !, why didn't someone think about telling me this ?, I'm sure it would have been very helpful if you told me a few years ago" I groaned.

.........

We came up with a plan, risky... But it has to be done, there was a way to enter someone's dream, a technique lost to all through the generations... Well, all but Ozpin, he had unlocked this power and as the girls were in the infirmary, I laid on a fifth bed, he placed his hand on Ruby's head as she slept, "you know this may not work, right ?" He asked, "I do, but it's worth a try,thankfully, Glynda put them to sleep so we could do this, they wouldn't consent to this in fear of me being hurt" I said.
"You really love these girls, don't you ?" He said with a smile, as everyone else was in the corridor outside, "it would be weird if I died for them and marry them if I didn't, don't you agree ?" I said, smiling lightly, he nods and chuckles.

"Ok, are you ready ?" He asked and places his hand on my head, "I was ready the day you first met me on the hospital bed, over Eight years ago" I say and closed my eyes.

I felt a little pain, then opened my eyes....

......

I was in a world that was as dark as night, I looked about and saw... I was in Beacon's main courtyard, the bodies of Grimm, laid around, with darkened, featureless bodies of what I guess where hunters, laying about.

I looked about and saw four familiar coloured girls, crouching low near a pile of dead Grimm, crying.
I walked up to them and noticed I was in my old combat gear, with my SA80 in my hands, I walked to them and saw black flames in beacons Windows, I then saw something that would have made me cry out in anger and sadness, if it wasn't a dream.

I saw my four young sons... Burning in The flames, hitting the jnbreaking Windows, screaming silent shouts as they slowly burned, I regretted looking, as even though this is not real, it will haunt me for the rest of my life.

I got to the girls and saw they were over a body... Of me... My body looked like it did five rounds in a drunken bar fight with Qrow then Pissed off yang.... But my face was white and peaceful.. It was eerily horrifying.

I saw a figure laugh, it did look feminine "come now, this is all real for you, and will be happening soon... He dies again and will never come back, but don't worry, you'll be joining him shorty after, as I kill off humanity" the voice said, Salem.

"No, why couldn't you live ?" Wailed Yang.

"All our friends, our sons, our love... Gone..." Cried Blake.

"This can't be real" said Ruby, though her tears.

I couldn't take it, I walked up to them and placed my armoured gloved hand on Ruby's shoulder, "Ruby, it's not real, come on, I'll always be here" I said, she stopped crying and looked up, then she hugged me, "are.. Are you real ?" She asked as the others looked at me, "yes, I'm real, this is just a horrible dream, I'll always be here.. Now, I need you girls to do me a favour" I said, they nodded slowly and I smiled, "go and Wake up... I'll be right behind you" I say, and point to the direction I came, as a small white light shined. They got up and hugged me, then ran to the light.

The dream started to fade and shake as they got closer to the light, as I was stopping the dream and breaking the Link, I looked to the figure, "Salem, I don't know why you are doing this... But I swear to what God there is... I'll stop you and make sure you'll pay for this" I said, "oh, we shall see. And as I slowly kill you, I'll make your precious wives watch... And then before you die... I'll finish them, so you can watch them die as they see you bleed" she said, "oh, we will see, indeed" I say as the dream shakes violently.

.....

I wake, and look to the bed, to see RWBY coming round, "well ?" Asked Qrow, as he and several other came into the room, "that dream... That was some bad shit, Ozpin..." I say and this get his attention.

"Something is coming... And it's worse then we could have thought" I say as I get up, and walk to the girls.
