Roman was sitting in the room with Neo laying on the plain white hospital bed, Neo’s eyes slowly flicked open as she transformed into Ruby “Dad, is everything okay?”

Roman smiled tear flowing from his eyes as he gave her a light hug as though she would shatter at any moment “I’m so sorry that I couldn’t stop him, please forgive my weakness.”

Neo smiled as she returned the hug “Father, don’t worry it’s fine. You have taught me how to survive when no-one else would give me even a second of their time. Besides I did it to protect you. You can’t have expecting him to do something so stupid in front of those who could have taken him down. Is Adam dead?”

Roman frowned “I doubt it, those who followed him likely are. Still I am confident in the fact that he will be receiving proper justice for his crimes once we get to Atlas.” Neo nodded as her illusion vanished, revealing the stitches from the wound. The Doctor and Nurse entered to see Neo awake “Mr Torchwick, we will take her onto the main base were she will be safe. You are free to come with.”

Meanwhile the Airship had just landed in Atlas facility, Diane dismembered removing the chains from Adam as she tossed him before her father. Her father bound his feet together as well as his arms with an electronic set of cuffs. Adam snarled “How dare you bind me you filthy human!”

Ironwood turned to Diane and Luna “Let’s take him inside.” Luna and Diane pulled him to his feet keeping him standing as they followed. As he entered scowling he noticed the faces looking upon, there were countless Faunus faces with the occasionally human glaring at him.

He shouted at the Faunus around him “What are you doing working for those who enslave us!”

Armour growled “Really, that’s a lot of talk for those giving all Faunus a bad name! Those who treat us badly call us monsters, what better way to spite them then prove them wrong! All of us here chose to rise above the actions of others.”

An orange tiger with a dark blue mane stepped forward a brand resting on his face in the same place as Adam’s “You are not the only former slave Adam, I chose to be better. Acting like you won’t gain me any sympathy from anyone. You have hurt Faunus human relations for so long, ruining our attempts to be treated as equals.”

Adam was stunned by the branded Faunus in front of him, he was soon moved along a stunned look on his face. As Adam was pushed away Shining Armour looked at him while the other Faunus kept glaring at Adam “Did you know Adam, Flash?”

Flash frowned “I did, we escaped together from one the Schnee Dust Mines. I joined the military and he joined the White Fang, we were like brothers in the mines. We escaped in order to make great change to destiny of our kind.”

At the end of the hall, Ironwood smiled “I believe it’s time for you to get back to Beacon. I will take good can of both Roman and his daughter I promise you that.”

Diane nodded “I will hold you to that, father. If anything happens I will return.” Diane teleported back to the Beacon roof and returned to her dorm.

Weiss raised an eyebrow “Diane how did you get back so quickly?”

Diane frowned “I teleported” she then turned to Blake “I’m sorry that most of the White Fang members didn’t make it to Atlas. They tried to take over the ship, the only survivor was Adam.”

Blake felt tears forming in her eyes “I know what they were doing was wrong but to die like that. Why couldn’t they have just surrendered…”

Weiss hugged her teammate “Blake, look we may not always see eye but none of this is your fault. Adam and the White Fang are not your responsibility anymore, you don’t have to take responsibility for their actions.”

Blake looked at Weiss “Um, why are you hugging me.”

Weiss’ face glowed red with embarrassment “You looked like you needed a hug, that’s all.”

Cardin nodded “What they do is their problem not yours, we leave the past behind and move to the future. We can’t change the past but we can make the future better one step at a time.”

Sunset smiled “We will make the world a better place one step at a time?”

Blake smiled weakly “Thanks, I needed that but I’m sure we all have a big question on our minds.” She turned to Diane “How did you channel aura through your Grimm form?”

Diane frowned “Most of my abilities are not my semblance, it’s something else. I can bend twist and warp reality, channelling my soul through soulless flesh is child’s play. Still I’d rather keep knowledge of my power to a minimum, we don’t want the world trying to replicate them.”

Before another word could be spoken, there was a knock on the door. Diane raised an eyebrow “Who is it?”

Ozpin’s voice came from the other side of the door “I need to speak to you about a mission?”

Sunset opened the door letting him, she scowled “We just completed a mission Headmaster, we shouldn’t just go on another one immediately.”

Ozpin frowned “I understand your hesitation but this come from the disappearance of Team RPJRYwho were investigating some strange enhanced Grimm. They dissapeared as they were investigating an abandoned town crawling with Grimm, the fact that they dissapeared has me worried.”

Blake growled “I won’t let anyone else be hurt, they our fellow students and they need our help. They would do the same for us.”

Weiss nodded standing up as well, and walked over to her blade filling it with dust. Diane picked up her weapons as well “We are ready to go, tell us where the town is.”

Ozpin frowned “The town is near the Mountain Glenn settlement, back in the day it was simply called Glennford.” The five of them stepped up hoping to prevent deaths unaware that they were already too late.
