________________________________________________________________________________

Intro

The episode begins with multiple flashbacks with the Fall of Beacon from twenty years ago. 

A narrating voice sounds off in the background about it's past.

"Twenty years ago..."

The flashback sees The White Fang and Adam Taurus, along with Roman Torchwick and Cinder Fall destroying Beacon Academy as Beacon had multiple students as well as from different schools trying to defend Beacon as well. Grimm was heavily involved as well.

"Remnant, mostly in Vale saw a new era...A era that was truly experienced with..."

The narrating voice paused as a red background appears where Adam Taurus severely injures Yang Xiao Long by slashing his sword at the arm of Yang, a front of Blake Belladonna.

"Bloodshed..."

A black background would fade in as a background and it shows a flashback with Pyrrha Nikos sending Jaune Arc into the weapon pod away from Beacon.

"Sad goodbyes..."

Then, the darkness fades in once more. Timeline wise, would go back to see at the Beacon Tower in the end of the Cinder vs. Pyrrha fight where Cinder shoots one of her arrows at the heart of Pyrrha and Ruby Rose sees this. 

"The worst of all...Death and heartbreak..."

Ruby was in shock as Cinder places a hand on Pyrrha's forehead as Pyrrha fades away. Then, Ruby cries out and screams out as the Silver Eyes activated and the whole background changes into all white afterwards.

"But, after all of that. A certain team was broken, later brought back together to stop one huge villain ahead of them that's caused The Fall of Beacon to happen."

The background became painted in with color and it's in Salem's castle. Salem is shown.

"This woman, this dangerous woman...The darkness flows within her, because of her selfish needs. This woman's name is Salem and she will not stop at nothing until...The world is burnt down to the ground at her feet...."

What's next is shown with pages like a history book would be flipped and sees a war breaking out. The pages flip once more as the paint is being placed in the page with Team RWBY standing side by side with ten more people on their side along with tons and tons of allies by their side.

"A war would be engaged. One side was the legendary Team RWBY alongside with their allies, that came along for in their journey."

One more page is flipped as it's shown with The White Fang with leader, Adam Taurus and many more on his side and standing from a few minutes off of where they were was Salem shown standing inside from the castle, watching this from afar.

"As The White Fang and Adam Taurus was ready for war. Salem was watching from afar. Then, from there the war finally collided."

Then, a new book gets picked up by someone as the person opens the book. As the book has pages that needs to be filled in. But, the background is seen getting painted in as a new generation being shown standing a front of Beacon Academy.

"A new generation has risen. The new generation will make sure the world is safe from any sort of danger...Or....Will it be safe at all, this time around?"

Opening Theme Plays

Opening Theme Song: Naru by Luck Life

To the deep chest

The beginning opening begins with the light fading in as the sun appears to shine upon Beacon Academy and the camera slowly pans then quickly transitions to the group of past huntsmen and huntresses, with Beacon Academy's headmistress Ruby Rose, Blake Belladonna, Atlas's headmistress Weiss Schnee, Yang Xiao Long, Oscar Pine, Nora Valkyrie, Lie Ren, Jaune Arc, Qrow Branwen, and six more people covered in the dark (not revealed yet), standing side by side.

Become a sound that can not be pulled out

The transition shows as the past generation had been faded out and the new generation standing there, as they have faded in and is standing, looking forward at the sun. The new generation showing Wraith Belladonna, Vanilla Frost, Roe Ket, Nashime "Kita" Yoshida, Tony Shimura, Dean Ambrose, Tyler Black, Roman Reigns, Kintoki Sakata, Kaiku & Sagura Shimura, Emilia Rose, & Jake Belladonna standing there.

Always believe and let it go

The wind blows around them as the camera would pan up above once more and show the sun with the new generation watching it. 

Because I am

Then, a leaf appears as the RWBY: After the Fall logo fades into the bright sun. 

After the rain, jumping over the puddle

This transitions from the title card sequence to seeing Tony, Kaiku, and Sagura walking and Tony stepped over a puddle as his two sisters notices the sound of the wind and leaves passing through them, The Shimura's are seen with smiles on their faces.

The previous scene transitions from them to seeing Dean Ambrose with his classmates, Roman Reigns and Tyler Black as they were standing as Tyler and Dean were arguing with Roman watching the two. 

I looked into the world of reflection

Wind passes through them as well as Black and Ambrose stop and notice the wind as Roman smiled as well as Black with Ambrose standing there with a blank expression. 

I was admired by the trembling sky

After that would see Wraith, Jake, Kintoki, Emilia, Roe, Vanilla, and Kita walking out to Beacon and the leaves passes through them as well. Vanilla stopped walking as she noticed the leaves as she stared at the sky.

If you notice something invisible

Roe and Kita called Vanilla over, but Vanilla snapped herself out of being distracted by the blue sky and she smiled as she ran over to them.

Although, it seems to be crushed

The new generation rallies up their weapons as they are battle-ready.

I turned around and it was heard. 

Tony, Roman, Dean, Tyler, Wraith, Vanilla, Roe, Kita, Jake, Kintoki, Emilia, Sagura, & Kaiku is seen with their weapons on the spot where they were originally standing. 

Chest tightening back, voice pushing back

Vanilla is seen with some doubt, but Kaiku and Roe placed their hand on Vanilla's shoulders giving her the strength to fight. 

To the deep chest

Everyone ran towards out to the forest, as the light fades in and it shows everyone's semblances at once. 

Become a sound that can not be pulled

Dean and Vanilla's semblance was not shown as the two froze up with them both, fading off into the darkness. But, Tony wakes her up from the darkness by having his aura goes in sync with hers and they show their combo move.

Fade away forever

Then, as Dean was watching everyone else. He looked down with an look of doubt with a demon showing in his own heart. As Dean looked at himself in the mirror for a moment as he would soon see Cinder as his reflection. His eyes widened and screamed out as the reflection breaks.

Resound strongly

Cinder watched Dean breaking before his eyes and having an evil smirk on her face. She even has people by her side. The important thing about this is that there is someone standing back to back with Cinder. The person's identity was covered in a silhouette. 

The flow has gone by now

Dean stood up as he slowly walked himself over to the darkness, slowly giving up on everything to be in the darkness.

Grasp it and do not let go

Tony Shimura, Roman Reigns, and Tyler Black stood behind Dean. Tony shout out at Dean, but Dean looked down and Tyler and Roman stood side by side with Dean as they places their hands on his back.

Because I am

Dean smiled as the darkness fades away as the opening ends with showing Ryuuto Yoshida and his whole class from five years ago in a class picture together.

Episode begins

While Vanilla Frost had plans to leave Atlas within the next day. And it was the next day, already.

This episode began with The Belladonna's, Blake, Jake, and Wraith walking around as it was a nice, pretty day in Vale. They even had Jake and Wraith's childhood friend, after coming to Vale from Menagerie, Roe Ket. They were taking a break from their training fights.

"C'mon, sister! I need to get back at Roe for that loss! You know, I will not give up until I get that win back..." Jake yelled as Wraith was holding her brother back. 

Roe laughed, and teased the younger Jake. She was acting like the gloating big sister, thinking that she was better than her little brother. Or in this case, her little close friend. "Awh, Can't take a loss?"

_________________________________________________________________________________

Flashback scene

Jake was attempting to go on the offensive side of things as he attempts to run at Roe with a practice sword that Wraith made for training purposes. He would attempt to touch her with the sword.

"I got you now!" 

But, Roe would use her semblance that Blake handed to her, as a gift from teacher to student. Roe would make a clone of herself by disappearing.

"What the--?!" Jake was cut off as he was touched by Roe's practice sword, back first. 

"Looks like I won." 

Roe laughed and Jake turned around as he growled a bit. He yells out.

"That's some bull! You--"

"Uh, uh, uh...No excuses, no rules, little Jake. So, semblances can be used." Roe pokes his nose and smiles.

Jake gritted his teeth. Blake places a hand on his shoulder. 

"It's okay, Jake. Keep trying again and who knows? You may win." Blake says with a reassuring smile.

Jake nodded and took his mother's reassurance. "Thank you, mother."

"Go get her, next time, brother." Wraith says as she walks inside as well.

"Oh, quiet, ROCKET!" Jake shouted out.

Wraith sighed and gave Jake a scolded look on her face. "Calm down, brother. If you also don't keep it down, Grimm will come out this way." 

"Hmph, fine..." Jake says as he crosses his arms and walks ahead

"So, Roe, Wraith, Jake...I need to know. What schools would you three like to tend to after you three are finished with Shoka Shinjuku in a few years and what type of huntress or huntsmen would you be?" Blake wonderingly asked the three. 

Roe, Wraith, and Jake stopped as they looked back at Blake. 

"Are you kidding me, mother? I want to go to Beacon and the type of huntsmen I want to be is a huntsman for people to really look after in ten more years from now! I want to be someone who can leave an example to show for the world to see!" Jake says with a excited grin on his face.

Blake smiled at Jake's answer. It reminded so much of her husband. "Wraith, Roe?"

"Well, that's easy. Jake, I'm with you through anything. I mean anything, and Mum as well. Beacon Academy, mum. And the huntress I want to be is to be someone who can do whatever it takes to protect those who matter to me the most. That'd be you two. Despite Roe came along later on, I maybe rivals with her. I will also do whatever I can to protect her as well." Wraith answers to her mother's question. Jake and Roe smiled at those intentions.

Roe thought about it herself. She was questioning herself...What kind of huntress does she wanna be? She seemed to be spacing out about that.

Jake snaps his fingers a front of Roe, to wake herself. "Roe! Wake up!"

Roe was snapped back into reality and blinked, looking at Jake for a moment.

"OH! Sorry! Okay, so...The school is actually at Beacon as well. I want to be more closer to you guys and not only that. Become apart of one of the most historic schools of all-time! So, the type of huntress I want to be...is..."

She paused, as her intentions may come off as shocking to Jake, Wraith, Blake or even anyone for that matter. 

"....Is to be like Ruby Rose. A leader that anyone can depend on. My dream is to become Beacon's headmistress!"

Blake, Jake, and Wraith was shocked about this. More like "surprised" is the right word. Blake was even more caught off guard with that. But, she was happy about the answer. "Well, Roe. You have my full support." 

"You could probably do it, Roe. Long ways to go, though." Jake says.

Wraith didn't know what to say about that. But, she went with it. She smiled lightly. "Go for it, Roe."

"I will, bet on it!" Roe grinned.

Blake gave everyone a smile as she walked ahead. "So, shall we get going, you three? Continue that training?"

"Well, yeah. BUT, mother. I believe all of us are hungry." Jake says as he rubs his head, nervously.

Roe and Wraith's stomachs growls. "We are hungry as well." They said at the same time.

"Alright, food first. Then, training." Blake purposed on this is what they should do before training.

Jake and Roe laughed, nodding their heads faster. As everyone walked towards the house.

_________________________________________________________________________________

The next scene is shown with a younger Dean Ambrose being sent against the wall and his white tanktop was ripped apart. His father came even more close.

"Can you do anything right, huh kid?! CAN YOU?! I can tell you can never do anything right at all, Dean!" Dean's father, Richard says as he yelled at the boy and grabbed him by the shirt.

The younger boy was scared out of his mind. Dean didn't know on what he should do. 

Dean's mother, Akane tries to stop him by trying to reason with him. But, he smacks Dean's mother in the face and he shouts at her. As he let's go of his son.

"Don't you ever touch me...Let me handle this with him..." He said in a scary and unnerving tone.

His mother felt her face as Dean's father was gonna do more. But, Dean gets in the way of him and hugs his mother.

"Leave her alone, father! You gotta stop this!" Dean says while he was in tears. He hugged his mother in comfort. 

His father gritted his teeth in anger. "FINE! I'LL LEAVE HER ALONE, THEN! DIE ALONE FOR ALL I CARE!" He shouted and storms out of the house, only to be stopped by the Britannia Police.

Later that night, he was arrested by the police. Dean's mother, Naomi and Dean himself was left speechless after Richard's usual outbreaks on them. It took them a day for the two to recover and get into daily activity without Richard.

Then sooner after all of that. Akane fell into a horrible sickness. That would later result in her death.

Dean was the only one seen at his mother's grave. And he had laid flowers there at the grave, as he sat there for hours on end without getting anything to eat or having a place to stay. This was due to a promise he made to himself. 

"I made a promise that...How can I live with myself without anyone in my life to help me with where I need to go in life. How can I live with myself, if I got no home to go to..? If you're wondering...Why is that? Here's why..."

The background would go into pitch black and it would show Dean standing a front of the burning home that he had seen burn down after his mother's passing. But, the blame was mostly pinned on the people who actually burnt it down.

His family was mostly hated and is known to be very hated. 

"Why must people have to hate the last name of Ambrose? I don't get it...."

In the background, of where Dean was. There was another family at two people's grave as well. It apparently was The Crowe/Shimura family. Mutsuko Crowe with her sister's three kids, Tony, Kaiku, and Sagura Shimura. Tony saw Dean over there, but didn't walk over or talk to him, just looked at him.

He said to himself as it started to rain and is still sitting down a front of his mother's grave.

Then, someone comes up to Dean and covers him up with his cloak and an umbrella. That someone was Ryuuto Yoshida.

Ryuuto would say to the boy. "You don't get why, huh?"

Dean looked up towards at Ryuuto and blinks. "Who are you?"

"Who am I, you ask? Well...My name is Ryuuto Yoshida. I'm just another person, passing by. Do you need any food at all or anything like that? I can treat ya to it." Ryuuto offered the boy as he smiled at him.

Dean looked back down at the grave. "I'm sorry, Mr. Yoshida. But--" 

His stomach began to growl at the thought of not wanting anything to eat, though he needs to get something to eat at some point and his covers his stomach.

"I'll take that as a yes. Well come on, before you catch a cold." Ryuuto says as Dean slowly stood up. The two return to the dojo home of Yoshida, leaving the cemetery. 

Before leaving...Dean says this to his mother's grave.

"Don't worry mother. I will come back. I promise." He ran up to Yoshida, catching up with him.

As the two returned to the Yoshida residence. 

Kita was asleep, as Yoshida cooked Ramen Noodles for the two. 

Ambrose spoke to Yoshida and had explained to him about his father and mother, everything that led up to his arrest and his mother's sudden passing.  

"Ah, I see. I'm sorry to hear that, Dean. You are having an identity crisis, right now. I can understand...I mean, I lost my brother and family, a long time ago." Ryuuto says to Dean.

Dean's eyes widened in shock. "Oh. I'm sorry, Mr--."

"Please, call me Ryuuto. The formalities doesn't need to be necessary. Or, if you like...Old Man Yoshida." Ryuuto laughed at his own joke. 

Dean blinked and laughed as well. He finally got to feel the laughter after it's been a long while since he last laughed at anything. "Alright, Old Man Yoshida!"

"I'm happy I got to make you laugh. And don't worry about anything, kiddo. I will keep good care of you, going forward. It's better anyways. I'm sure your mother would be happy anyways, since we both were good friends at a point of time." Yoshida smiled.

Dean was actually thinking to leave as well, but the thought just vanished. "Are you sure?"

"Of course! I'm sure, Deano." Ryuuto places a hand on Dean and gave him a smile still.

Dean's eyes lightens up and he tries his best not to tear up. He covers his eyes with the sleeve on his yukata. "Okay! Thank you!..."

Ryuuto dried the boy's tears and continued to give him that smile, keeping it on his face. "I assure you. You and my daughter may end up being great friends, Dean. We're happy to have you."

Dean's face grew red a little, and looked away as Ryuuto laughed at it.

"Quiet, Old Man Yoshida!" 

"Hahaha!!" Yoshida laughed. But, Dean later would laugh as well.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Meanwhile, in Atlas. It was the night time, after a long day. The ship is about to sail in five more minutes. Vanilla Frost did succeed in her plan to leave Atlas. She was about to hand the person a ticket 

"Here you go, sir." Vanilla says as she was about to hand the man the ticket. 

Until, a voice can be heard from behind Vanilla.

"Where do you think you're going?..." 

The woman would walk up to Vanilla, as she was covered in a cloak and a hood over her head. 

"Hm?! Mother?" 

Vanilla was alarmed by the woman's voice and thought it was her mother. She looks behind her as she thought it was her mother but it wasn't. It was a woman in a cloak.

"Wrong answer, little girl." She says as she walks closely to Vanilla.

Vanilla was a bit scared by this woman who was walking closely to her.

"Who are you? Why are you out at this time of the night?!" She asked in a shaky tone, as she steps back a bit. 

The man bordered onto the ship as the ship set sail and leaves the area.

Vanilla was late for the ship
. "Damn! They left..."


The woman's eyes glowed in the dark of her hood as she pulled it over and it was revealed as Cinder Fall under that cloak. Cinder innocently smiled at Vanilla. "I should ask you the same thing...Vanilla Frost..." 

Vanilla's eyes widened in total surprise and shock. How does this woman know her name, she wondered?! "H-How did you know my name?"

"Isn't it obvious? Your family is well known throughout the whole world. I know your grandfather, your mother, and your father. Not only that..." Cinder takes her scroll out and shows a picture of her mother all bloodied up and is apparently, dead at this point. 

Vanilla's eyes widened as she fell down to her knees and takes the scroll. She was shocked about this. She didn't even want to believe it..."No...."

"Yes...Vanilla, I know your true identity as well. You're a faunus, aren't you?" Cinder smirked evilly.

Vanilla's body was frozen and shook by that huge fact. All she could do was deny this...Deny the fact that...Her mother isn't dead and she is denying that she isn't a faunus, even though. But, truly she is... "Y-You...Stop! That's not true!"

"That's not what your records say. My, my...What do I have here?!" Cinder pulls out her birth records and more.

She couldn't believe this....Cinder found out a lot about her this way, she thought about it. Maybe it was Cinder that killed her.

"W-Wait...You...YOU KILLED HER?!"

Cinder smirked evilly at Vanilla. She knew what she was getting Vanilla into....Manipulating her, making sure she is a lock for the future to come.

Breaking through the silence

A huge lighting effect fades in and then fades out as the setting sees darkness and sees Vanilla Frost standing in the dark and she reaches her hand out forward. 

We met in an inevitable encounter

The blacked out scene fades out as it would show Nashime "Kita" Yoshida and father, Ryuuto Yoshid standing in the light and she does the same thing as Vanilla. She and Ryuuto tries to reach out to Vanilla.

For our both sakes

Then, going in order left to right shows Dean Ambrose, Tyler Black, and Roman Reigns close to looking like silhouettes, but light is dimmed down on their faces. The three were standing side by side together, walking towards the light where Kita is standing at. 

In your mournful eyes

Vanilla looks down as Cinder Fall walks from behind and with a evil grin, she wrapped her arm around Vanilla's neck. Vanilla tries to resist Cinder by putting her hand up reaching back out to everyone else. Vanilla's eyes slowly grows dull as she was being kept in the darkness.

I see a reflections of regrets

Wraith Belladonna and Roe Ket is seen walking with their backs turned in a different direction, through a reflecting-like mirror.

Enveloped in sorrow, you've blossomed beautifully

Flowers suddenly appears and Vanilla's eyes would light up as she sees the flowers blossom around her as she raises her hand back up to finally reach out.

The flower that fuses into someone's life

Visuals appears with a silhouette of a person appears and that appears to be Tony Shimura, walking towards the darkness where Vanilla was. Then, as Vanilla was in the dark with sudden flowers growing around her. Time reverses with the flowers reverting and slowly fading away. 

Hey, do you see it?

A up-close look of Vanilla is shown with her slowly turning away as she watches the flowers fading away, slowly.

I'm sure you do.

Back and forth motions happens with Vanilla slowly putting her hand down and slowly frowning as well and Tony still walking around, looking left to right as fellow and former schoolmates, Roe, Jake, Wraith, Kintoki, as well as his sisters, Kaiku and Sagura

Let's paint over all the mistakes we've made

A new transition was made with Vanilla seeing herself watching the dark sky and the moon, with extra beautiful visual and view at sight. Then, it was shown with her facing the sky with her back turned. Trying not to walk away from it.

A new start line will always be there if we want to start over. 

The darkness visuals returns as Cinder attempts to drag Vanilla away deeper into the darkness. Tony Shimura alongside with everyone else walking towards for Vanilla's direction. They were close-up's for Roe, Wraith, and Tony.

Let's make our future different from the past

Visuals changes once more as the snow appears and it's revolving around Vanilla as she still had her hand out and she would soon see the past with everyone else she's ever been with mostly Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns, Tyler Black, best friend Roe, and sister and father, Kita and Yoshida. 

Our small hope will paint a new start line

Then, Vanilla sees a dream she saw once with her holding hands with Tony, her one and only crush. She wishes to be with him. The dream fades away as well as it was raining for a quick second and it stops as it was still darkness. Soon, she quit putting her hand out there as Kita yelled out for her and Cinder was very close to pulling her into darkness. 

I never say goodbye

Then, Vanilla slowly fades away into the darkness with a smile. Tony ran into the scene and grabs for Vanilla's hand, pulling her away from Cinder and got Vanilla out in time as they re-enter the light side as Tony held Kita back at the same time, before Cinder reaches for either of them. As everyone else made it out of the darkness. 

That's how I always am

Tony let's go of Vanilla's hand as he gave her a smile and Vanilla had been unsure towards him. The light rises even more, as Vanilla reaches for Tony's hand and Tony reached out for hers. The visuals would change as it fades in and out with Tony's smile and Vanilla's smile as their hands intertwining and ends with both of them gone.

She would walk up to a townsfolk person, she asks directions to the Yoshida residence.

"Alright, go straight ahead and take your first left. They should be a dojo like home, there when you make that left."

"Okay, thank you!" Vanilla says with a smile as she would run off and takes a look around as she would see Ryuuto walking with Kita. Vanilla had ran past them. 

Vanilla notices that and she would stop as she look behind her to see Yoshida and Kita.

"Dad! Kita!"

Ryuuto stopped walking and so did Kita, as they turn around to see Vanilla. He recognized that face, her older daughter's face. Kita's eyes lights up and smiles. "Daddy! Is that who I think it is?"

"Yes, Kita...Vanilla..."

"I'm home!" Vanilla says with tears falling down her face and leaves spreads around them, with the wind blowing in the air. It was a nice atmosphere.
