In the labyrinth, that was once Beacon academy, was (Y/N) and the severed head of the grimm queen, Salem

Salem: That man did something to me

(Y/N): Yes, he severed your head

Salem: No, I did this on my own, he has done something to my regeneration

(Y/N): Regeneration?

Salem: I'm supposed to be immortal but his attacks hurt me beyond regeneration. I want to know how?!

(Y/N): It won't matter. You're just a head now

Salem: A head with an army!

(Y/N): Army?!

He grabs her from his waist and walks to the open balcony that they had just encountered. He points her out to the carnage that was happening outside. The world was in shambles the moon was red and repaired, not only that but it seemed closer than ever before. A fire could be seen coming from Vale and no Grimm could be seen at all as the the bright light flashed from above them

(Y/N): Your army is nowhere! But the great ones are everywhere. They don't care if you live on their land, but your army bothers them so they get rid of them

Salem: Great ones?! There's nothing there but the carnage I caused

Although she couldn't see it, there were several Amygdalas, there was one on top of the stadium, watching the battle inside, and another down at Vale, also watching

(Y/N): I figured you would be able to see them. Turns out I still don't know as much as I thought I knew

He places her back on his waist to continue onwards for the source of the bright light. She tried to press on what he meant but he decided to quit wasting time since he was already trying to minimize the casualties

Traversing the halls of the labyrinth was proving to be nearly impossible. Every turn was just more paths into classrooms and dead bodies. It also didn't help that some hallways just up and moved at random, which made it hard to remember where he's been.

Salem: Just admit it! We're lost

(Y/N): I admitted that a long time ago, you have not

Salem: BECAUSE BEING A HEAD SUCKS!! IF I HAD MY BODY I WOULD'VE DESTROYED THIS PLACE BY NOW!!

She, somehow, managed to start wiggling around by just screaming

(Y/N): You're the most childish Queen I've ever had the honor of meeting

As they argued the platform they were on started moving. The sudden movement made him stumble as the platform raised up. He looked around at his surroundings and saw many interesting beasts like birds with dog heads, dogs with bird heads, and a pig with many eyes.

As the reach the, near, top of the labyrinth they hear the moans of a man. The platform soon came to a stop and they were met with a man with a cage on his head

(Y/N): This can't be good

Salem: It's not! He's the one who got me like this

???: Ah, Kos... Or some say, Kosm... Do you hear our prayers? No, we shall not abandon the dream. No one can catch us! No one can stop us now!

 No one can catch us! No one can stop us now!
