Orphaned Reader X RWBY Volume 2

The End of a Tyrant

Once all the Faunus have made it to Haven, Y/N and Blake head up to the roof to confront Adam. Thanks to their superior hearing, they overhear everything he says

Adam: Stay focused! Our friends are almost done here.

Adam and his followers get back to work, but then they hear a voice call out to him.

Blake: ADAM!!

They all look up and see Blake and Y/N standing proudly on top of the roof of a nearby building.

Adam: Blake?

Hazel: Who is that?

Blake: Stand down!

The White Fang soldiers aim their firearms at her.

Adam: Wait! (putting his hands up as the White Fang soldiers stand down, before laughing evilly) To think that I went through so much trouble to find you, only to have you deliver yourself to me.

Y/N: You are making a dangerous mistake, Taurus. Turn back now, before this gets any worse

Blake: This isn't what's right for the Faunus! Stop what you're doing and we can end this peacefully.

Adam: You're both wrong, and you can't stop us. (he smiles evilly)

Blake: No, I can't. Not by myself.

Sun: That's why she didn't come alone!

Adam and his followers turn to the left in surprise, seeing Sun standing in front of a massive legion of Faunus all armed with blunt weaponry, their shields bearing the old White Fang symbol.

Adam: What?!

White Fang Soldier: Who's there?

They then turn to the right, and see Ghira leading another massive legion of Faunus.

Ghira: Your brothers and sisters.

One of the White Fang Soldiers lowers his weapon, recognizing one of the Faunus in the crowd.

White Fang Soldier: M-- Mata?

Mata is seen in the crowd holding a club and shield.

Mata: (pleading) Please... stop this...

Adam and his followers look all around them assessing the situation.

Adam: Make no mistake, brothers! These are our enemies! And we will not let them ruin--

Suddenly, Adam is interrupted when a Mistral airship shines its searchlight down on Adam and his group. The Mistral police captain is seen on the airship with Kali .

Mistral Police Captain: (over P.A.) Adam Taurus, this is the Mistral Police Force! Lower your weapons and surrender peacefully.

Blake lands to the ground from the roof, while Y/N slides down on ice.

Adam: How?! How did you do this?!!

Y/N: There are alternatives to violence. Sometimes it just takes a rallying speech. But it seems your ideology of a better world by killing everything that opposes you has corrupted you beyond redemption 

Blake: Adam, it's over.

Adam looks around as the crowds of Menagerie Faunus get closer to him and his group. He then pulls out a detonator.
