No one's P.O.V.

"I WILL END YOUR MISERABLE LIFE!"

Meanwhile...

Outside of the beacon dance hall, a lone man was looking up in the sky. He had a solemn expression on his face.

He turned his head toward the entrance, which a certain General, accompanied by some foot soldiers, leaves with a hurried expression. The man decided to walk toward him.

"Sir Ironwood..." The general turned around, looking at the man with a tired manner. "...What is the occasion?" He eyed the soldiers.

"N-No, i was just deciding to take my leave."

"Oh? Leaving already? But the fun is just beginning!"

"While i do enjoy a good ball, i have a special meeting soon. I don't have time to chatter all day." He turned his gaze toward the C.C.T. Tower.

"Oh, that's a shame. Really, i was hoping that we could have a conversation, you know? Like back in the good all days?" The general let out a sigh. "There actually is something i was meaning to ask you, Sir." The generals gaze turned from stressed one, to a curious one.

"Oh? What would someone of your status need me to answer?"

"Simple: What do you know... about the Mutation of Semblances?"

The generals face turned back into one of annoyance. "We could talk about that on a later day, i'll be taking my leave. Now." With that, the general turned toward the C.C.T. Tower, before marching toward it. Followed by his soldiers.

The man turned around, his face changing to a mix of anger and hatred.

"Tch, paranoid little worm. Well, he'll see what that brings him." He straightened up his outfit before tightening his tie. "Hmph. Anyways, that should be enough time for her. She needs to learn how to carry her weight. Or else, how will she ever carry the weight of the World? And Y/N..." His face turned into that of a maniac, grinning from ear to ear. "The fun is only just beginning!" He then broke into a fit of laughter, that would even rival the one of a certain Scorpion.

Back at the C.C.T. Tower...

A H/C haired boy and a masked woman were staring each other down. Fire burning in both of their eyes. The boy, however, was not alone.

"Uhm... Y/N? Shouldn't we fight together?" Ruby tilted her head while looking at the boy. Saying that she wasn't scared of him would be a lie, but she feared more what would happen if she didn't help.

"Tch, i don't care. Just stay out of my way!" He then charged forward, unsheathing W/N.

Ruby followed suit, dashing forward with Crescent rose. The three of them clashed, but Y/N immediately jumped backward.

The woman took this chance to kick the reaper away. She started grinning at her, but was instantly hit by a boot to the face.

"Don't you DARE look away from me!" The boy ignited his arms before dashing at her.

Ruby decided to stand back, firing with her sniper rifle at the woman.

As they continued to clash, everything came to a hold. Everyone turned toward the elevator, which revealed Ironwood himself.

Ruby, knowing that it's now 3 against one, started grinning smugly. However, her gaze changed from smug-anime-girl to one of confusion, as she found that not only the intruder disappeared, but Y/N as well.

Meanwhile, both persons in question were jumping across rooftops, one trying to escape, the other in hot pursuit.

"You may be able to run, but you can't hide. One day, i will catch you."
