Roswaal : "Shadow Arts!"
He opened up his arms, while saying the powerful, magical words, he clapped his hands. All the focus was pointing towards him, even Emerald and Elsa were looking at him. This wasn't just some Yin Magic, this was basically suicide what he was doing.
Lisa : "RUN!"
Roswaal : "The Eeeeeeeeend!"
Right that instance, Tattletale dashed away from the scene, screaming and everyone followed her. Though, it was already too late. The pressure nearly crushed everyone's skull's, and just like that, everyone collapsed, except for Roswaal. They were swallowed by a cloud of shadows, with their sanity and skulls at the edge of collapsing.
However, the Spiritual-like, massive Knight used his blade to protect those in need, and used himself on Weiss' command to protect everyone. He swung his sword and blew the shadow cloud away. However, a new wave was approaching them soon after.
Weiss : "Don't move!"
With all her power, Weiss stuck her weapon, the Myrtanester in the ground, and created spiritual Arts to keep the Arma Gigas in form.
The Sword of the Arma Gigas was giant, but this kind of magic was beyond her imagination. Even her Mana Stone based weapon was unable to use such sacred and rare arts of Magic.
Emilia, who had a massive headache and nearly lost consciousness, summoned Puck. He appeared on her right shoulder, and without interacting with her, he opened up his tiny arms and clapped them, creating a massive frozen barrier, which was at least two meter thick.
After they felt the pressure disappear, the giant Arma Gigas collapsed, without any impact on the ground, and scattered in a million pieces of light-like glass.
Weiss : "Thank you Arma Gigas."
She thanked her Spiritual Knight, with a voice both filled with gratitude and regret. The latter mostly because she would be unable to summon the knight anymore in the next few hours, which could be a fatal problem in the near future.
Weiss : "We must get away right now! We need to find the others!"
Qrow : "And how do you wanna do that, Ice Queen?"
Hearing the nickname 'Ice Queen', Weiss bit her teeth and made a "Tsk" like noise. While the Barrier was still blocking the Dark Energy Field which would easily kill all of them if they wouldn't away, Weiss turned around and looked.
Yang was in a fatal position, she was at the edge of dying, but Emilia was taking care of her again. With the Mana Support of Puck, Emilia would easily be able to heal her back to her original state. However, that would be under normal circumstances. Moving away would result into the Frozen Barrier to shatter, which would cause a certain… Tragedy.
Tattletale walked slowly towards Weiss, and put her hand on her shoulder. The two of them looked into their eyes, expressing a feeling of relief to each other. After that, Lisa turned towards the group, and made her call. She formed a fist of her hand and pressed it against her chest.
Lisa : "We must reunite with the others. We cannot win this fight; not with the people we're currently with. We need to find the others as soon as possible! The only two persons who can keep them off are Emilia and Weiss."
Hearing their names, they feel a shiver going down their spines, and then look up to Tattletale in a quick matter. They didn't like what they heard, but it was true. They were indeed the only ones who were with them that could do something.
Melissa : "What about me? I could try to use my powers, right?"
She walked towards Tattletale, and opened up her arms out of panic. She wasn't ready to die, not until she could guarantee the safety of Nathan and Felt herself.
Lisa : "You would be a total idiot if you mean it. You using your powers could result into all of us dying. We don't know if we can trust you once you're that thing."
Melissa bit her teeth as hard as she could, not because of the fact that it was rude to say, but something she hated even moreー
ーTattletale was right, Melissa was not powerful unless she would enter that form, that powerful form.
Her thoughts filled with anger, defiled by the fact that she cannot protect the one surrounding her, and might become the enemy herself, she formed a fist out of her hands.
Ram walked towards Melissa, and grabbed her hands, and formed her own with hers together.
Ram : "Don't worry. You don't have the fight. You've more things to worry about."
Hearing those powerful, sweet words of Ram, who was supposed to be cold and sassy. She widened her arms. Those majestic words warmed the heart of Melissa. It meant a lot to her, just as much as Nathan.
ーDespite nobody knowing the details, Nathan, Melissa and Felt don't have a family. They're were known as the 'Rats of the Slums', nothing but brats, fighting to survive. That's what their life was made of.
There was only one thing which mattered to Melissa, Nathan and Felt, and that was their family, themselves. But now that they all have a place in this world, what are they actually fighting forーー That's all that went through the mind of Melissa. Is this the life she wanted? To fight for someone who gave them a place? Perhaps she's thinking too much about it.
Lisa : "She is right. Go find Nathan's group. Once you find them, bring them to us."
Ram released the hands of Melissa and close her eyes, a pink, red like light was leaving her body. As if she was meditating. In a matter of seconds, she opened up her eyes, and looked at Melissa.
Ram : "They're there! Approximately a few meters away from us! Go get them! Only you can do it!"
Melissa : "B-But what if I… Become that one thing?"
Suddenly, she felt a cold hand on her shoulder. Melissa turned around, and recognized that person by her cute face, silver hair and amethyst purple eyes.
ーEmilia, who looked nearly like a corpse, with bags under her eyes, she looked like a walking zombie. She was exhausted, suffering from mana-exhaustion, and more. There was definitely more, she wasn't just exhausted, she was mostly worried.
ーWorried for Jens to be safe. But it wasn't her task to worry, her task was to fight, fight for Jens and not be the one who needs protection this time. She did all she had in her power to protect those who help her, but was it enough?
Emilia : "Melissa…. I know you can do it. Go, please."
Then, her eyes slowly narrow, and she passes out, with a slight "Agh…" when she fell. Just before she hit the ground with her face, Tattletale caught her, and placed her on her back.
Melissa : "A-Ah…"
Lisa : "Fuck Fuck Fuck! Weiss, what are we gonna do?"
Weiss looked around. But there was nothing but chaos going on, she kept looking around to see anything bright, but there was only darkness, literally.
Behind the Frozen Barrier, there was literal Darkness created by Roswaal, who was trying to kill them with his magic.
In the Frozen Barrier…
ーThere was Emilia, who was unconscious, laying on the ground with a very pale complexion.
ーRam and Frederica, who were standing, worried for what will happen next.
ーYang, who had an open stomach, with blood still streaming out. She was at the edge of life and death.
ーAngel, who was exhausted, sat down on her knees and tried to catch a breath. She was completely out of Aura and Mana.
ーQrow, who was staring at Yang, filled with anxiety and fear. He never saw one of his nieces in a state like that.
ーTattletale, who looked at the sky, trying to come up with an idea. Despite being the intelligent one, her Semblance couldn't help her every time.
ーPuck, who was floating in the air, pointing his tiny little arms towards the Frozen Barrier to protect Emilia from the enemies.
ーーAnd there was herself, who was frozen, not literally. She was shocked. She hated Yang few hours ago, then they made up for it, and forgot about the past, becoming friends again. But now, she's dying, and Weiss is unable to do anything.
Weiss : "F-Frederica, do you know how to heal?"
Frederica : "No, I am sorry!"
And again, all Tattletale could say was "Fuck" very quiet. She was worried, it was her first day with the Emilia Camp, and there are already people dying.
Lisa : "We've only one shot at this. Puck, how long can you keep that barrier up?"
Puck : "One hour, exactly."
The quick response of Puck opened so many possibilities for Tattletale and her brain. Immediately, she started thinking again, and continued in her own isolated brain. Until,
Lisa : "I got it. Melissa."
She nodded in response.
Lisa : "You've to find the group of Otto, Garfiel and Nathan. Nathan and Otto can heal, plus they might be able to help us in this fight. With the Blood Hunter, Emerald and Roswaal here, we stand no chance. We need the whole group back here!"
Melissa : "I gotー"
Weiss : "I go with her!"
The unexpected remark of Weiss left Tattletale speechless, this wasn't what Tattletale said. Going against the plan always results into headaches, is what Tattletale thought.
Weiss : "If I'm able to find Mana Stones here around, I'll be able to fight more, and even heal! Leaving Melissa on this task alone is stupid! What if she enters the form?"
Tattletale : "I am not sure if I already told you, but I fucking hate it when people call me stupid, because I am not. Now, go already, we got this. Make sure none of them follows you, and if they doー Well, you'll be screwed."
That certainly was a way to word something in a situation like this. But she wasn't wrong. Tattletale was right. If they would be noticed by either Emerald, or Elsa, they would be dead for sure. If Roswaal would notice them, and would go after them, then that would open up a way to escape for the others, but could they make it out fast enough? They had two unconscious people, and not enough combatants to fight him. Surely, it was a gnarly situation.
Melissa : "I got it. We got this, right?"
She nodded towards Weiss, and she nodded back. Then, Weiss drew the Myrtanester, and swung her blade sideways, creating white, floating glyphs on the ground.
Upon stepping on one, Melissa felt weightless, and just like that, she dashed forward, nearly going at the speed of light. Right after, Weiss followed and like that, they disappeared from the scene.
Tattletale : "They better make it back. I'm not ready to die in a shit-hole like this."
Qrow : "They'll come back. We need to worry about this. You know?"
She heard a voice of a mature man. A man wielding a shotgun scythe, wearing the pattern of black, white and red, Qrow Branwen approached her and put his hand on her shoulder.
Qrow : "We got this. We just need to come up with something."
That certainly was nice, it made her smile. It wasn't a genuine one though, there was no way she could smile right now out of happiness. They were literally surrounded by Death, collapsing the barrier would result into a tragedy for sure.
Ram : "Tattletale, weren't you a Thinker? Come up with something useful so I can kick that damned clown's ass."
Tattletale : "Stop putting so much stress on me. I'm trying!"
ーSuddenly, a loud crack was able to be heard. A crack you would hear when glass starts to shatter, or Ice.
Everyone felt a cold chill shivering down their spines within the Ice Barrier. Immediately, they looked at source of the sound
ーA single crack appeared in the frozen barrier. But thenー
??? : "Hyaaaagh!"
The Barrier scattered in a million pieces of Ice, Elsa Granhiert dashed right through the Ice Barrier and broke it. She landed perfectly on her feet, in front of everyone, and the others looked upon her and the Sanctuary Temple, but something changed, yes.
ーRoswaal stood there, on the top of the stairs towards the entrance of the Sanctuary, and stopped using his Yin Magic. He just stood there, with a wicked smirk on his face, and his eyes narrowed, he clapped his hands.
But there was something more abstract about the scene. Elsa broke the barrier, Roswaal stopped using his magic, butー
ーWhere was Emerald Sustrai? She was nowhere to be seen from the scene
Tattletale looked around, in every corner of her eyes, but she just wasn't there. Was this the work of her Semblance? No, it couldn't be, it wasn't the case. Was she after Melissa and Weiss? That sure, was a possibility.
Elsa : "Such a nice reunion, isn't it Spirit?
The floating spirit Puck made a noise, "tsk", out of annoyance. There was no need to use her Semblance, Tattletale already understood that the two of them knew each other.
Elsa : "This time, I'll make sure to kill that Half-Witch of yours. Now, and forever."
Ram : "Over my dead body!"
Suddenly, Ram shouted at the maniac like woman. She pointed the palm of her right hand towards her, and screamed:
Ram : "FURA!"
She released a burst of wind towards her, at a hyper-sonic speed, it started to reach towards Elsa.
But, she easily dodged it by jumping in the air, and instead, Ram hit an abandoned building.
Elsa : "Nawh… Bad girl."
Ram : "Tsk!"
Then, unexpectedly, Frederica dashed forward towards Elsa Granhiert. She formed fists out of her hands, and suddenly, they transformed. Her hands became hairy, with a yellow orange fur, and her hands became claws.
Her Jade colored eyes glistered in the sunshine, as she approached Elsa with an extremely fast pace, Elsa was unable to react fast enough, and received a punch in her stomach, sending herself flying few feet back. She landed on her back, and coughed blood.
Looking at this, Tattletale grabs Qrow's muscular arm and pushes him forward.
Tattletale : "QROOOOW!"
She screamed, as loud as she could, pointing her finger towards Elsa Granhiert, and called out his name, stretching it more than usual. Then, she took a breath, and continued,
Tattletale : "DO SOMETHING!"
Qrow Branwen, who's beautiful black hair waved in the wind of daytime, grabbed his Great Sword, and pressed a button.
Suddenly, within the Great Sword, gears started to spin, engines started to pump, and things started to move within the sword. Then, the Sword started to expand itself, and became a massive Scythe.
From that instance, he ran towards Elsa, and used his scythe to make her draw her blades, which she did, resulting into them getting broken because of the powerful scythe.
Elsa : "Tsk~! It's gotta be like this, hasn't it?"
Then, Elsa jumped towards Qrow's neck, and used her nails to scratch him, luckily enough, she suddenly got launched back by a powerful kick by Qrow. Before she could land on the ground, her back had hit a wall of a building, resulting into some broken bones, but she didn't care. She just stood up, and ignored the fact that she was in a fatal situation. Elsa Granhiert, this so-called vampire, was immortal, it seemed.
Qrow : "Get out of here kids! I'll deal with this thing!"
But nobody moved, the situation was way too tense to abandon. They had to fight, everyone had a reason to fight, despite not all reasons being known.
Tattletale, who was looking at Qrow and Elsa Granhiert clashing, started to analyze the situation with her semblance, and noticed some useful new information.
{Elsa Granhiert. Vampire. Divine Protection of Ghosts. Has a Semblance. Cursed.}
{Frederica Baumann. Demi-Human. Leopard Human. No Protections. No Semblances. Related with Garfiel}
{Roswaal L Mathers. Able to use all Six Magical Elements. Has a Divine Protection}
Tattletale : "Has a Semblance… Cursed…?"
She muttered it to herself, slowly, and quiet, nobody could hear it.
What did that information mean? Was it useful though? She was cursed, perhaps she was being controlled by the Washuu King?
Frederica : "I'm not done yet! Qrow!"
She put her claws on the ground, along with her feet, and dashed forward like a leopard towards the battle. She jumped as high as possible, and went for Elsa, who was too busy fighting Qrow.
Upon falling down towards Elsa, Frederica swung her arms, trying to crawl her face open, which didn't succeed, as she suddenly disappeared like wind.
Then, Frederica felt a crushing pain on her face, and got kicked right on her jaw by Elsa, who appeared next to her. She fell on the ground, and couldn't stand up. The kick was powerful enough to have broken her jaw.
Elsa : "Kitty Kitty. I'm sure Sister-chan will love to play with you—"
Then, Qrow swung his scythe towards Elsa, so she couldn't come more close towards Frederica, resulting into Elsa making a few somersaults back.
Elsa : "Tsk!"
Qrow : "Gggrr…!"
Looking at what is going on, Roswaal swings is hand and opens a dark portal, a portal which he entered in without saying anything to Elsa.
Upon noticing this, Elsa formed a wicked smile on her face, and widened her eyes. She threw her dagger into the air, and caught it again.
Elsa : "You'll die! You All Will Die!"
She swung her left, unarmed arm behind her back, and grabbed a knife from out of nowhere. She threw that one towards Frederica Baumann, resulting into Ram creating a Wind Barrier surrounding them.
Frederica : "T-Thanks Ram-sama!"
Ram : "Stop lowering your guard!"
Despite showing her gratitude, with an voice which showed how amazed she was, she got declined and criticized by Ram, which was somehow expect able, they were in the middle of a fight. Thanks to the power of Ram's Wind Magic, she saved two lives, not just Frederica's, but also potentially more. Frederica isn't just a maid, she's a leopard human, one that can transform into her Demi-Beast form, and fight back.
Tattletale : "Frederica! Get Emilia and Yang, bring them to safety!"
Angel : "W-Wait!"
The voice of the girl who had not spoken yet, chimed in everyone's skull. She stood up, partly still shaking, because of the fact how low her Aura and Mana are, but she didn't let that stop her.
With her legs shaking, with her arms trembling, with her eyes watery, she looked upon the scene, took a big breath in, and screamed as hard as she could.
Angel : "FOR JENS!"
Tears start to stream down, and her vision becomes nothing but vague. Her legs start to shake even more, until she collapsed to the ground, and fell.
That powerful scream which only consisted of two words, trembled within the minds of everyone except Elsa, who simply just chuckled.
Qrow : "Tsk!"
Upon biting his tongue out of annoyance, he swung his scythe as hard as powerful towards Elsa.
However, as she saw this coming, she threw one blade towards his hand, where the grip of him and the scythe was, and one blade towards his face, right towards his right eye. There was no way he could react to both of themーーー
Unexpectedly, everyone's vision became as bright as the sun, it could even hurt those with bad eyes. Nothing was able to be seen, everything was so bright, as if they were in heaven. What happened?
Only a few seconds later, a thunder like sound was able to be heard by everyone.
The light started to disappear slowly, but the electricity sound was still able to be heard by everyone, even by those who were still unconscious, when they would wake up, the sound of thunder would tremble within their skulls.
Elsa : "Mhm…?"
She removed her arm from blocking her vision, and noticed that Qrow was unharmed, but was laying down on the ground, as if he lost his consciousness due to the light.
When the light finally disappeared completely, she realized that there was a blue lightning barrier surrounding Qrow, and a new person within it.
??? : "You've done more than enough here, Elsa Granhiert."
She smirked at him, widening her eyes as wide as possible, she looked like a total psychopath, a person who's beyond the point of no return.
The wind and dusty clouds which were created by the thunder breezed through his wavy hair. His tall, lean, muscular body, was covered by a skintight white and blue costume. Despite his eyes being covered by a blue mask, he had a lot of noticeable cute features.
Elsa : "Oh, I surely didn't expect to see you here."
Despite meaning it, she said it in a disrespectful matter, but the man did not react to her disgusting facial expression, or her obnoxious attitude.
Elsa : "Legend, is what they call you, no?"
Legend : "That's correct."
Upon confirming it, Elsa grinned. Slowly revealing her teeth, she let out a maniac like laugh, "Hahahahahahaha".
She starred at him, slowly grabbed her knives, and was ready for combat against him.
Elsa : "In the end, he was right about you, about Jens, about everyone, such arrogance!"
He showed no response, other than pointing with a finger towards her with his right hand. He exposed basically no facial expression, but his body expression revealed that he was ready for a fight, every moment, no matter when.
Frederica, who was ready to bring Emilia and Yang to safety, hesitated upon looking at him. Did he save Qrow? Or did he kill him? She wasn't sure, as he was unconscious, laying on the ground, with his eyes closed, motionless.
The group, the ones who were able to move ran towards the man, and stood behind him, Yang and Emilia were still there, being guarded by Puck, who was floating above them, and slowely creating a new barrier of Ice.
In just a matter of seconds, the three of them were unable to be seen, and were surrounded by a ice barrier.
Then, upon looking more closely at the man, Tattletale recognized him. He was someone she knew from a long time ago. Because of this, she widened her eyes and words weren't able to leave her mouth smoothly.
Tattletale : "L-Legend… What are you doing here?!"
The man didn't turn his head, and kept pointing with a finger towards Elsa. However, he did turn his head down, and after a few seconds, he responded.
Legend : "Tattletale… It's nice to see you again."
Hearing that, she took a few steps back, and was left breathless. How could this be, she thought. All Wardens are supposed to be pawns being lead by Vincent, the one who's working with Furuta. But, why is the Leader of the Wardens, helping Qrow, helping Emilia Camp, helping Tattletale?
Elsa : "Is there a problem? I thought we were on the same side Legend, you handsome man. What happened?"
She licked her blade, in a lewd way.
Seeing this, everyone was disgusted by her obnoxious yet beautiful body. She gave an aura off of a poisonous flower, a beautiful yet deadly one.
Legend : "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Blood Hunter Elsa Granhiert, but I, myself, am not interested in woman."
The handsome, powerful man stated that he was gay. After that, he immediately put his arm down and formed a fist. At the same time after that, lightning started to channel around his hand, and made a piercing noise, which passed through everyone's ears.
Legend : "Especially woman like you."
Looking at the scene, being ready to fight, Ram was watching Legend making that remark, until he suddenly disappeared from her vision. Did he teleport? No… He didn't, she realized that after she turned her head towards Elsa, who also suddenly disappeared.
Tattletale, who knew what powers Legend had, looked up in the sky, and saw Elsa and Legend. The man punched her in the stomach, and send her flying towards the ground. Usually one would expect her to take a few seconds to reach the ground, but this powerful punch gave her enough momentum to hit the ground, to her demise, in an instant.
She crashed onto the ground with the back of her head. You could hear a loud cracking noise, indicating that Elsa who was coughing up a lot of blood, might have quite a few broken bones now.
Then, the man appeared again with his feet on the ground, with not even a single scratch on his body. Aura leaving his fist, and excessive mana surrounding his atmosphere, were both crushing and amazing for everyone compared to him. He was on a completely different level, perhaps even powerful enough to deal with Sin Archbishops him self.
Legend : "Had enough?"
It was basically definitive after he made that remark, he was extremely powerful. That strength was not human, and perhaps the whole Emilia Camp wouldn't even come close to his level.
The assassin Elsa, who slowly tried to stand up, suddenly started glowing a bright, poisonous color purple. One would think it was her Aura that was trying to heal her wounds, but it wasn't. The purple light started to flash and blinded everyone's eyes.
After only a brief moment, the light disappeared, and her body was back to a normal state. Like Legend, without a single scratch on her body.
Elsa : "Such a powerful fist. That strength is equal to your selfish, obnoxious arrogance! Amazing! Are you sure you're not into woman, or woman like me?! I'm sure I could please you in your life!"
She worded in a weird matter, one could think of her as a psychopath, a maniac, one who would lost her humanity and will to live a normal life.
Actually, it was common knowledge if you would see her at first sight, there was nothing in her eyes except emptiness, and a purple glimmer of blood lust.
Legend : "I don't think my sexual desires are of necessity, now are they?"
He sighed, one filled with exhaustion and annoyance.
Legend : "I'm rather interested in how you did that. I studied your kind, vampires, but I have never seen someone recover from my Lightning Punch that easily."
Frederica, Ram and Angel took steps forward, and stood next to Legend. They didn't trust him completely, but as he was fighting their enemy, they knew that they had to fight at his side. Frederica transforming her hands into Leopard claws again, Ram grabbing her Wand, and Angel filling her hands with Wind Mana, the three of them were ready to strike her down when Legend or Elsa attacks again.
Tattletale however, wasn't a combatant. Instead, she rushed towards Qrow, and tried to wake him up. She shook his shoulders, slapped his face slightly, trying to wake him up. However, it was no success, the man was definitely unconscious. Upon realizing this, she bit her teeth, and made "Tsk!" noise.
Legend : "Ladies."
He was referring to Ram, Frederica and Angel. His voice was calm, and somewhat leading, or commanding. The three of them looked at him, and then,
Legend : "Please, step aside. I don't want any friends of Jens to feel pain. Not anymore."
Hearing that, they looked at each other, and turned around, and walked towards Qrow and Tattletale. They were still looking at the scene, and ready to fight if someone went wrong.
Tattletale, had a different kind of reaction. She was shocked by the words of Legend. The important words that he stated kept trembling in her mind, "I don't want any friends of Jens to feel pain". That sentence kept going here and there in Tattletale's head. She couldn't understand how Legend changed all of a sudden. He was the leader of the Wardens, the one leading all their attacks and missions. He, Eidolon and Alexandria were the ones that caused the biggest moves of the Wardens, with Vincent being the biggest, as he set the three of them in action.
How could he be like this? Formerly, he would follow orders, and do everything which was required to destroy Lugnica, and especially the Emilia Camp, but now he's helping them. But not only that, the fact that Tattletale ran away from the Wardens, and he still protected her despite her disobedience. What could've changed him?
Elsa : "Isn't this touching? You, filthy little betrayer. Your husband will die, suffer in agony and pain, the first time I see him. You'll regret this so much!"
The woman threw disgusting words at him, and threw her Northern Knives towards him at an extremely fast speed.
As a reaction, he clapped his hands, and made all the projectiles flying towards his direction, fall towards the ground, as if the law of gravity got adjusted. Not only the knives which were flying towards him, but even a blade which he didn't notice flying towards Frederica, fell on the ground.
Frederica checked, and Legend didn't have eyes on his back or the back of his head, but he still stopped that attack somehow.
He dashed towards Elsa Granhiert like lightning, and appeared only a few inches away from her. She tried to jump away with a somersault, but Legend already launched her in the air with an uppercut.
While floating in the air, with blood streaming out of her stomach, she fell towards her demise again. Legend jumped into the air with an extremely fast speed, and appeared next to Elsa. He kicked her back with his right heel, and made her crash the ground, breaking every possible bone in her body.
Before she was able to crawl away, Legend landed with his feet on her back, crushing her spine, and making her vomit blood.
But, unexpectedly, Elsa started to vanish slightly, step by step, until she disappeared. Legend, who nearly killed her twice now, was left clueless what happened or how she did it, until Tattletale notified him.
Tattletale : "She… She's gone. That's her Divine Protection of Ghosts."
Legend : "Did she clone herself when I landed an uppercut?"
Tattletale : "Perhaps."
The conversation was dense, and the man sat down on his knees to breath. He closed his eyes, and took a moment to get back on breath.
Angel : "L-Legend… Was your name, right?"
Legend : "That's correct."
He responded very quickly, as if he saw that question coming. However, he didn't respond in a rude way, instead with a very polite and calm way.
Ram : "Who are you? Why are you helping us?"
The man sighed again, and stood up. He brushed all the dust away from his blue skintight costume, and turned towards the group.
Legend : "I'm Legend. Me and Tattletale are… Former associates, If I would say at the least."
He mentioned Tattletale, and looked at her. Despite hearing it, she didn't respond out of fear. She knew what this man was capable of, and was scared for a punishment, despite knowing that he changed.
Legend : "I may have been associated with the enemy, formerly, but I finally opened my eyes. I know who the enemy is, and I know that the one who I formerly was, was the enemy."
Not quite understanding what he meant, Frederica, Ram and Angel look at each other, and then turn their eyes towards Tattletale, who was sitting on her knees next to the unconscious Qrow Branwen.
Legend : "Allow me to heal your allies. After that, we'll discuss how we'll defeat the enemy, and the Washuu King."
