An arcing slash of fire moves across the black screen, quickly followed by another. There is a brief beat before two more fiery arcs slash across the screen. An irregular circle of flame bursts outward from the center, revealing behind the black a panting .

She is in a large, empty room. Behind her is a darkened arched hallway. On either side of the arch, the walls of the room have a low ledge the bear several burning white candles. Four approach Cinder, moving in a semicircle formation. Cinder swings her left arm at them, sending another slash of fire. It cuts through the middle of all four and they disintegrate away.

Cinder pants again, still upright yet taking a breather. She does not get long, as heavy footsteps approach from her left. She gasps and looks in their direction. A leaps into the air, ready to deliver a blow to her with its fist. Cinder, however, pulls back her right arm and pushes a ball of flame right at it. It, too, disintegrates.

As its body disappears, Cinder falls to her knees, breathing heavily.

XV: ENOUGH

Salem And XV walks forward while Cinder continues to struggle for normal breathing.

Salem: I thought you were the girl who wanted power. Did you lie to me?

XV: One can't control power completely. You need to start small before you get big.

Cinder winces on the force of Salem's question before looking upward. Turning to face Salem, Cinder clearly shakes her head negatively.

Salem: Then stop holding back. If you wish to master your new powers, you must -

Salem is cut off by the sound of heavy doors opening. On the opposite end of the stone hall, a sobbing enters. He falls to his knees once in the room, both hands flat on the floor and his head bowed.

Tyrian: (softly) I'm sorry. (raising his hand to his chin) She'll forgive me. Pleeeease.

Tyrian bows again on the last word.

Tyrian: Forgive me...

XV: He has failed. Meaning. No. The time is not the time.  Salem Allow me to Give him a boost.

Salem: Sure.

XV then Shakes as the spikes he had back when he was still in his true self jet out. and a tail comes out.

XV: This will Help you. You will be reborn.

XV stabs Tyrian in the chest injecting his virus. His eyes becomes black sclera and purple irises. He the gains a XV spawn tail. His skin in his hands become jet black and white lines. He then becomes more insane. A Grimm comes at Tyrian  but was sents away with a single blow and it lands on its back. Still wailing, Tyrian opens his weapons and leaps atop the Beowolf. He slashes at it repeatedly, tears streaming down his face. His wails gradually turn into laughter as he vents his grief into the butchering of the Grimm. Cinder watches, horrified. XV then chuckles an walks away.

(With Deira)

Outside of her home on Patch, Yang Xiao Long spray paints her robotic arm and half of Ember Celica bright yellow. She goes into a tool shed and takes the tarp that had been covering her motorcycle, Bumblebee, off. Deira whistles.

Deira: That is nice. 

Taiyang Xiao Long: I don't remember saying that you were ready Yang.

He is leaning against the frame of the open shed door, arms crossed.

Yang: (without turning around) Oh yeah? You're gonna try and stop me?

Taiyang: (chuckling) No. I think I'm still too sore after our last fight. I just wanted a better goodbye than a letter. And, I also have a question for you.

Yang turns around.

Taiyang: Where are you going?

Yang: What do you mean?

Taiyang: (moving into the shed) Well, despite asking him numerous times not to, I know that Qrow told you where your mother's been at these days. I know how much you wanna see her. I've stopped you in the past, but I won't anymore. And we both read the note. We know your sister's headed to Mistral. So, where are you going?

Yang looks down at the tarp as Taiyang makes his point. She remains gazing down for another couple of beats before looking up at her father. Her eyes narrow in determination, her decision made.

Weiss Schnee steps out of her bedroom, carrying a white suitcase and Myrtenaster. She then Begins to walk and then sees Whitley.

Whitley: Good bye dear sister.  Hope we meet again. Maybe if Haven Dosen't fit. You got atlas.

Wiess: Ya thanks.

Jacques: Come on. Your bullhead is waiting.

(with Xero and Askad)

Lie Ren and Nora Valkyrie run through the abandoned Kuroyuri.

Xero: Ren. what is going on.

Ren: It's here.

Xero: what is here.

Ren's eyes grow wide and he falls to his knees, clearly alarmed as the sound of plodding footsteps can be heard coming closer. Qrow grabs his weapon, Askad Then jets up in the air summoning Orange Orbs, Xero summons Aeroblade and the rest pull out there guns.

Ren lifts his head.

Weapons can be seen, stuck into an offscreen body that has bones sticking out perpendicular to its spine. Slowly, a torso raises, revealing a horned, humanoid Grimm. The horns and front part of the face are bone while the mouth is merely thin strips of Grimm flesh stretching across an opening. The mouth, the bones, and the eyes all glow red. The Nuckelavee twitches its head and roars.

Xero: Here we go.
