Shadows seem to have no heart, no feelings, no emotion. Yet Shadow Joker Strife is different, his heart had been changed, after seeing his family killed in front of him. He attends Beacon Academy to train so he can protect those he cares about. Fate...
Cinder: His Power...it immense...maybe even more than a maiden.
Mercury: It could be his Semblance...
Emerald: Look at you being an actual E-boy Mercury. You want to tell me how long I have before a deal online I have is over?
Cinder: *turns to them* Shut it. That boy is very useful in his power...I must have it!
Emerald: If you truly want it, yet I have a question. What about the fall maiden and the rest of her power?
Cinder: We will get it as well. Once we obtain his power as well...*eye glows with fire* Beacon will fall to our knees and beg for mercy!
Present Day with Shadow...
Yang: Please understand that...I lost control and severely hurt someone...
Weiss: And this was an accident?
Ruby: Sis...I..
Blake: Yang, I know that you're super sensitive about your hair...
Shadow: But you need to control your anger, and learn to use it correctly. If you can't, I fear that it will have severe consequences.
Weiss: What are you suggesting Shadow?
Shadow: *sigh* The fear that was in many had after the accident awakened the Neo-Grimm Dragon, along with hoards of Grimm having their fear senses kick in. Cinder has a plan to make Beacon fall to the ground, and we must not let this happen.
Ruby: Cinder?! Why would she do such a thing?!
Shadow: Ruby...can you answer me a question?
Weiss: We don't have time to-
Ruby: Yes.
Shadow: Do you know the Tale of the 4 Maiden's?
Ruby: Of course. The tale of how four women gain magical powers of the seasons, Winter, Sping, Summer, and Fall.
Shadow: What if I were to tell you...
Cloud: That story was true?
The group turns as Cloud stands at the door, arms behind him as Shadow takes a step back.
Shadow: Cloud.
Cloud: Shadow, it's good to see you again.
Ruby: *confused* What do you mean that the story I said was true.
Cloud: It's best if you don't know, only that the story of the maidens are true. We'll save that for when you need to.
Yang: Oh come on! You can't explain that now?!
Cloud: Like I said, another time. Shadow, I need to speak with Faith.
As if he was already their, Faith appears next to Shadow, holding his arm as he looks to Cloud. Team RWBY is shocked that Faith and Shadow are standing side by side.
Faith: Uncle...
Cloud: Here, I need to give you this. Ironwood made one for you.
Cloud pulls out an arm, made of pure gold as the fingers give a claw look to them. Faith puts it where his arm was, as the arm begins to move with Faith's actions.
