*knock knock knock*

The door open itself and you enter

Salem: What is it?

You see she has her hair untied

You hold your nose to prevent the blood from leaking and enter

y/n: I wanted to talk to you about our attack on Atlas

Salem: Now? You know it's too late if you want to go there, they have long since closed the border and Watts has already got Jaques on our side

"I said I would like to come with you, and I'm not missing on the occasion to ride on a Grimm Whale with my Queen"

"*chuckle* Such flatterie"

"It's mostly natural"

"I hope. Anyway, what do you want?"

"I'm thinking about the Atlas military, and I remembered the way 3 of their airships repelled the train attack easily, and I was wondering what could sixty of them do. And I think as they won't be able to attack the Grimm in the city, they will focus all their power on your flying monkeys--By the way I still think it's ironic-- and our ride"

"I see, and what good solution did you came up with?"

"Remember Beacon? Well, it was a good strategy. I say, we take a Dragon with us too. If we send him after some of your monkeys, it would be able to take on multiple airships and destroy their communication tower as well as bring Grimms on Atlas, which would be delightful since all their military will be in Mantle"

"You do know the one in Beacon was so old it was hidden inside a mountain near mountain Glenn? I even placed a lot of Grimm in the surrounding caves to prevent them from finding it"

"Yeah but you can make one no? I mean, you made the Whale too"

"I did. But it was a special case"

"It's worth it isn't it? I mean, better raise the odds"

"*sigh* You just want to see a Dragon destroy Atlas right?"

"Well, we'll have a good point of view, so why not?"

"Well, I think I can grant you this. You fullied your two promises after all. Bringing me Ozma and make things interesting for me"

"Don't make it sound as a favor. It will benefit you too"

"Why wouldn't I play with words too?"

"Because it's my job, you're the Demon that play with peoples live, and I'm the human that play with words to live. It's how we work"

"I like how you're blunt about this"

"I know. And I don't see why hide it, we both know it. And I personally like too"

You just both stare at each other without saying anything

...

y/n: Well, I'll go now

Salem: Y-Yes. I'll tell you when we'll depart for Atlas

"Thanks"

You go out and place back your eyepatch, as you don't wear it when you're alone with her. It seems she like to see your Grimm eye for some reason

You join Summer as Jaune is finishing his meditation

y/n: Ready?

Summer: Yes

Jaune: Yes my Lord

Later, near the black pool

Salem finish creating the Dragon and breath heavily for a second, apparently exhausted by the effort
