A/N: It's been a while. Enjoy everybody!

Sapphire POV:

I ran towards the sound of the explosion with my scythe at the ready. I was excited to finally be able to shoot something again

You have problems, you know that right?

Hey don't give me lip, I didn't ask for some weakling to get implanted in my head

It's only a side effect of the procedures, also you may want to look ahead of you

What are you talking abo-

I was knocked back by an explosion that came out of nowhere. But since I'm a guy who is powerful enough to pose a threat to all of remnant, it didn't really affect me.

Sapphire: What the hell?

???: Ahh, Project Twilight, at least I've been able to find one of the targets.

Sapphire: What the hell did you just call me!?

The guy appeared to be a teenager. He had an open hoodie that was white with black stripes, as well as baggy black pants. Underneath his hoodie was a black shirt wrapped in three chains. What seemed unnerving the most was his face. Shaggy blond hair that almost covered two differently colored eyes. His left eye was a deep orange, while the other was a cyan.

He seems... friendly

???: My name is Frost White, but you can refer to me by my field name, 'fiery glacier'

Sapphire: I refuse to call anyone something that stupid

Frost: It's not stupid. Anyway, Ironwood's orders are to bring you in, as well as Project Destroyer.

Sapphire: Oh come on!

Frost: I beg your pardon?

Sapphire: I get a wimpy codename like twilight, but he gets to be DESTROYER?

Frost: Wait, the two of you have made contact!?

Sapphire: That doesn't matter right now. What matters is that I finally get to fight someone, and it turns out to be another one of Ironwood's goons. I mean come on, even a lowly nerd put more of a challenge up than the grimm I fought getting here.

Frost merely pulled out a black sword with a handguard that also looked like some sort of handle. It then proceeded to light itself on fire.

Frost: Well, you may not be as much of a challenge as the other one, but at least I managed to drag out the secondary objective.

Sapphire: Okay I'm going to stop you right there.

*Loads fresh clip into scythe*

Sapphire: Your primary threat is right here, and you just pissed him off

We charged at each other with my scythe clashing with his blade. We traded blows with him being able to match my speed, sparks were flying through the air. We caught in another sword clash before he managed to point the tip of his sword at me. I could tell he was still holding back as I felt the flame's heat nearing my face, but fortunately, so was I.

Sapphire: Is that all you got, or is Ironwood's lapdog, running out of steam already!?

He merely gripped the handle of his sword and the tip split open to reveal the tip of  flamethrower

Sapphire: What the-

Frost: You chose to play with fire, now pay the consequences

And just like that I was on fire. In order to keep myself from being burnt to a crisp, I activated my light mode and the flames were automatically put out by the power of my light.
