The Shadow of Beacon Part 4

(y/n) POV

I was going to die, but I'll be danmed if I don't at least try to kill Salem! "If you wish to blame, blame Ozpin. It was because of him that you threw your life away." she said, "N..n..no!" I said weakly, "if I'm going to die then I'm taking you with me!" I yelled as I opened the void containing Goddess Fall. Although it wasn't my cursed gear I could still use it as a weapon, but its abilities would not activate. I stood up and supported myself with the axe. I activated my crimson eyes, since if I activated my dark aura then my aura would be depleted quickly and in turn I would bleed out quickly, I rushed at Salem with one a fraction of my full speed but it was enough to catch her off guard. I slashed at her head, but sercame to the pain of my wound and swung over her head. I recovered just in time to block her sword. I spun the axe and disarmed her or so I thought. She blasted me with a dark energy sending me back. 'It's time for my secret technique' I thought, I opened four voids two in front of Salem's arms, one above her head, and one beneath her feet. "NOW YOU DIE!!!" I yelled as I moved the voids around her arms, legs, and head. I then closed them all simultaneously effectively decapitating and dismembering her. I sent the severed parts of her to the far reaches of remnant and the rest of her body to the bottom of the ocean.

I did it I beat Salem. I fell backwards. The adrenaline was fading and I was going to die. Then I heard the familiar sound of a portal opening and Aunt Raven ran through. Once she saw me she froze. "(y..y/n) where's Salem?" she asked, I coughed up a bit of blood "she's gone." I said curtly. I heard her sigh in relief and then dad ran through the portal. He picked me up without saying a word, when he finally spoke all he could say was "let's go get you married bud." I could tell he knew that I wanted to marry Blake before I died.

Dad a lied me down in front of Blake.  "B..Blake Belladonna do you take (y/n) Fall to be your husband?!" dad said with tears in his eyes. "I.. I do!" Blake said as she began to cry. "(y/n) Fall do you take Blake Belladonna to be your wife?!" dad said still holding back tears, "I do." I said weakly. "I pronounce you husband and wife! Now kiss the bride!!" dad yelled and Blake kiss me. "Y... you can't die on me now! Not now that we're married!" Blake cried, "I... I don't want to go, but I don't have a choice my love." I said as my final breath.

Blake POV

"N..no. No! NOOO!" I cried as the man I love died before my eyes.  "M...mommy why is daddy taking a nap in the middle of the wedding?" Sky asked luckily Yang got in front of her and stopped her form seeing the dead body of her father. Mom came up behind me and placed her hand on my shoulder. I turned and hugged as I sobbed in my mothers chest.

A few days later we had the funeral. I think that's when Sky really began to realize that her father had died and that he wasn't coming back. Sky ran off somewhere, but I could still hear her sobbing. I wish there was something I could do to help her, but there isn't nothing I could say or do could make any of this okay.

After the funeral everyone went back to Winter's house. I sent Sky to live with Aaron and Rose until I could get myself together. I see why (y/n) chose Aaron to be Sky's godfather and not Jaune or Ren. Aaron might joke around a lot but in the end you can always rely on him to be there when you need him.

Aaron POV

Sky has been living with Rose and I for almost three days now and she has only left her room to go to the bathroom. She hasn't come down stairs to eat at one point I brought her some food to eat, but when Rose went to check on her she found the tray of food I brought her outside the door untouched. "This is bad. I get that she's upset about (y/n)'s death and not being with her mom, but just sitting up in her room and not eating anything. I'm worried about her Aaron." Rose said, "I'm going to go check on her. Maybe I'll find out why she acting like this." she said as she got up from the couch and walked upstairs to Sky's room.
