~Vault~

After the students left, the darkened room became a battlefield, orange and green clashed as either side tried to gain dominance.

Cinder dodged a strike before Ozpin appeared in front of her as he used his semblance, speeding his strike into her abdomen before thrusting forward as the effects registered.

Using her new maiden powers, Cinder erupted into a large ball of fire and fired it at the headmaster who summoned a protective ball before everything went white.

"That's it! Everybody on board! This is a mandatory evacuation!" Professor Port shouted.

"A safe zone has been established in Vale! Please, remain calm and listen to Atlas personnel!" Professor Oobleck said as the students were being escorted into the bullheads.

Weiss and Aaron watch as Grimm continue to assault their Academy.

"This isn't good." Ruby said.

"Where are Jaune and Pyrrha?" Fawna asked as everyone looked around.

"They were here before!" Terry said.

"I'll go find them." Peter said turning before Ruby stopped him.

"Not alone you aren't." She countered.

"We need to leave now you two!" Sun said.

"Not...without...them!" Ren retorted as he stood before falling back down.

"Ren's right." Nora chimed in, struggling to stand.

"No one else is putting themselves in danger, you ALL are leaving." Peter said turning to Ruby.

"No, that's not happening...we're going together." Ruby shouted before Peter grabbed her shoulders, his eyes turning full silver.

"No Petal, you are leaving and that's final, I'm not losing you again!" Summer shouted as Ruby stared into his eyes.

"No one other than Dad, Uncle Qrow, and Yang called me that." Ruby said.

"Ruby Xiao Long Rose, you are going on that ship and that is final." Summer said again before Peter gained control again.

"I'm serious Red, trust me." Peter looked at her as she lowered her eyes.

"I don't want to lose you Peter." Ruby begged before Peter grabbed her cheeks and kissed her, halting her retorts as everyone else looked at the two.

"Its a leap of faith Ruby, trust me." Peter said placing his head on hers. He heard Weiss's scroll ring as the heiress answered to hear a distraught Jaune.

"Jaune?" Weiss asked.

"Pyrrha, you got to stop her!" Jaune replied.

"Pyrrha?" Ruby asked

"Pyrrha! She's going after that woman at the top of the tower! She doesn't stand a chance!" Jaune explained, emotion clear in his voice.

"Jaune, what are you talking about!? Where are you?" Weiss asked.

"Don't worry about me! Please, you have to save Pyrrha." Jaune shouted.

"We will. Are you okay?" Weiss asked again.

With one last flare of emotion, Jaune screams and throws his Scroll onto the ground, breaking it. He collapses onto his hands and knees, crying.

"Please..." Jaune sorrowfully pleaded.
