I was sitting in my room listening to val as he catches me up on what happened before i left. Apparently they had a dance while i was gone and on that night someone sneaked into the CCT tower for some unknown reason. I stopped for a moment before continuing my work knowing who it was that snuck into the CCT. He continued the story with a mission to the outskirts of vale where they ended up finding a train leading to vale to open a hole into vale leading grimm into the city. I stopped sharpening my sword as i gripped the hilt, as i remembered the sound of civilians screaming and losing their life. It's time this ends, before it gets worse.

"Their is business that i must attend to val", i said standing up as i sheath my sword and grabbed my helmet putting it on.

"what kind of business?", val asked making me stop by the door.

"one that i might not come back from", i answered with a seldom tone.

"then let me come with you and we can face this together", val said standing up.

"No, if i fail i need you to be here because your the only i can trust to protect vale", i said looking away.

"...is there anything you want me to tell ruby or yang?", he asked.

"If i don't come back, tell them to head to a city in mistral called shizen. If they find my body bury me their next to my master, the locals should help them find my old house", i said walking out.

I walked around beacon looking for one of cinder's lackeys. If i kidnap one of them i should be able to draw her out so we can i take her out before more people's lives are lost. I will have to break a promise to my master for the greater good. I snuck around making sure i wasn't seen until i came upon emerald who was walking around by herself. I snuck behind her and waked her in the head with my sword sheath. I caught her body before she fell and began to walk towards the bullheads leading to vale as i opened her scroll texting cinder.

If you want her back, come meet me alone in a field east of vale. Their we will end this, also i believe you know who this is

I sat kneeling with my swords in front of me meditating mentally preparing myself for a fight that could end my life. I heard a shuffling of leaves in front me making me look up to see cinder with her red dress looking annoyed and pissed. I stood up and attached my swords to my hips as i looked to my right to see emerald gagged and tied up. 

"I can't believe you would do this!?!", she said making a fireball in one hand.

"I apologize, this was the only way to get you alone", i said as a breeze flew through. I looked passed her to see death waiting by the tree line. Seems like someone will be dying today, and i hope it will not be me.

"Your going to die for this!!!!" she said making fire spread around her buring a spot around us.
