Writer's Note: How about that episode, guys?! We are down three more episodes to go for Season 2's finale. Ohhh! Reminder, peeps. There's an announcement coming when that final episode drops. Can't wait for you guys to see what that announcement will be! Now, in this episode. We have officially begun the War in Britannia Arc and things have gotten intense, really fast. Former friends and enemies engage in this war, there's even a fight going on at Beacon (more on that as this episode progresses). Without further ado, let's get started. EPISODE 20 has ARRIVED PEEPS, haha!!!

_________________________________________________________________________________

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.

"Long 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 would fade 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 villain ahead of them that's caused The Fall of Beacon and the wars to happen."

The background would be 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 won't stop at nothing until...The world is burnt down to the ground a front of her...."

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 Ryuuto Yoshida, Gintoki Sakata, Zaveid, Shinsuke Takasugi, Shinpachi Shimura, Mutsuko Crowe, Velvet Crowe, Qrow Branwen, Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Lie Ren, Oscar Pine, and Raven Branwen 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."

Next 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 begun."

A brand new page had been created as it would be painted in as it shows Team RWBY defeating Salem, alongside with Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie. Oscar Pine, and Lie Ren.

"Then, Salem was defeated by our heroes of the past. Sure, the war with Salem ended. But, things took a dark turn with The White Fang and Team RWBY's allies."

Another page would be stained in paint as it shows Shinsuke Takasugi, Velvet Crowe, Shinpachi Shimura, Mutsuko Crowe, Qrow & Raven Branwen, and Zaveid being held down as Adam Taurus watched them grovel and is enjoying it. As Shoyo Yoshida is seen tied up at the end of the cliff.

After this, then a page is turned as Gintoki Sakata is seen slashing Shoyo's head off clean with his sword, forcibly.

"After Shoyo's sacrifice for his students. The war did indeed end but on a sad note as our heroes stared at the sun, looking into the future as The White Fang did die down after the war and later disband. This would be the end of the past generation."

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

"After twenty years of chaos and war. A new generation has risen. The new generation will make sure the world is safe from any sort of danger..."

A page is flipped and the background gets painted in as it would show Dean Ambrose in his new demon form killing Roman Reigns a front of Tony Shimura, Tyler Black, Mutsuko Crowe, Seth Thurston, Asuka Reigns, Vanilla Frost, and Nashime "Kita" Yoshida.

"Then...even in the new generation, darkness exists within the new generation..."

A new page is shown, one of the new pages is there but the one to the right is not painted in yet. The page to the left shows Dean not turning his back to look at his former teammates, as he did side with Cinder Fall, Roe Ket, Zero Kishitani, Katsuke Shinoda, and Saiko Mayama. Tony is shown with an angered look on his face.

"This is where...Anger, darkness, despair, and finally...hatred comes into play..."

The page to the right is now painted in as it shows Tony Shimura standing all alone, in the rain and is apparently seen at Atlas, raging in the rain by himself, continuing his search for Dean, following his interaction with Saiko Mayama using her Darkness Control on him. He is seen shouting out loud out of desperation and anger.

"The boy, Tony Shimura is now under his own darkness and fighting his own subconscious, with a desperate mind, that's close to breaking. Trying to prove he can save someone on his own and under his own power."

Another page is flipped and is seen with someone holding their hand out to Tony, as Dean walked away into the darkness. Saiko is shown holding her hand out and Vanilla holding hers on opposite sides as Tony was in the middle.

"Now...Darkness or Light, Give up or keep fighting is his two only options...Which will he choose?...

A page is flipped once more as it shows Vanilla Frost hugging Tony Shimura, outside of Beacon Academy, with an laid out Saiko Mayama as well as the Beacon's head, Ruby Rose, Jake Belladonna, a close friend of Tony's, and Vanilla's sister, Nashime "Kita" Yoshida watching the two hug. 

....A choice was made when the girl, Vanilla Frost woke him from the boy's own darkness. The boy, Tony... chose to continue the fight and his mission to save his friend..."

A new page is seen as it's shown Tony Shimura, Nashime "Kita" Yoshida, and Vanilla Frost heading towards for Britannia Village for the upcoming war. 

"The young trio now is going into their hometown village and defend Vale from darkness and war, that the enemy declares...."

Another page is flip on the left as it's shown on both pages, of the two sides which sees on one side, Ryuuto Yoshida, Velvet Crowe, Zaveid, Ray Rowe, Emilia Rose, Himiko Ren, Kaiku and Sagura Shimura, Tyler Black, Kintoki Sakata, and Asuka Reigns in the village defending for Vale. The other side would see Cinder Fall leading the charge for her side alongside with Roe Ket, Zero Kishitani, and her forces heading into the village to start the war. In the background shows Dean Ambrose standing on the village's bridge. 

"As the war emerges..."

The next page shows Dean Ambrose fully in his demon form and holding the Demon-Dweller Sword, awaiting for his former friend, rival.

"For better or worse...Two friends, now enemies, a rivalry...It will all collide ahead on one battle and whoever is the last man standing...The war, the rivalry...Comes to ahead right now!"

The visuals fades into the white light as the opening begins.

To this tomorrow I can say so

The previous scene transitions to the next with Tony Shimura walking alone on a lonely road as the beautiful skies were there as the background visuals and he waves without looking back. 

In this town, where not a single thing changes

The opening ends with someone placing a picture onto a table, and light was reflecting the picture as the person would move the picture away from it as it shows Tony, Vanilla, Kita, Kaiku, and Sagura together.

_________________________________________________________________________________

The episode would begin, back into the war in Britannia Village.

Zero punched Asuka so far away that even Ray and Emilia caught her. 

"I would stop if I was you..." Zero warned them, he is someone who doesn't want to fight anyone at all, especially knowing he'll pretty much hurt someone badly and wants to solve this kind of problem by just telling them that giving up is a better option.

Himiko jumped up from behind as she would attempt to go for a slide kick to Zero. But, to her surprise. Zero would jump up in the air. He went for a huge punch.

But, she moved out of the way as Emilia threw in a smoke bomb a front of Zero as it goes off and it surrounds Zero. 

Zero did miss hitting Himiko with that punch.

Ray grabbed his bow and grabs a few swords, as he arches and shoots them at Zero.

Himiko starts shooting bullets at Zero from her weapon, which was Stormflower/Magnhild from behind.

Zero got really quickly frustrated and angry to the point where, he began to go berserk. His semblance was activated as the swords do break once they hit him. His eyes goes bloodshot as well as he started to quickly sense Himiko heading his way.

He catches her from behind and by the face as he slams her down to the ground. 

"HIMIKO!" Ray and Emilia shouted out.

Emilia would take her staff turning into a sword weapon, Sakura Rose out and she heads in.

"Damn you, bastard!" 

Ray shouted at the monster of a man and goes into the smoke.

Ray attempts to hit Zero with an incoming kick but Zero would punch him in the face so hard, it sends him back out of the smoke.

Emilia turns Sakura Rose into it's sword mode and attempts to slash at Zero, from above. Zero hits Emilia in the gut and back with a huge punch and then, she hits the ground. 

As she does so, Zero kicked her in the back to add to that punch, and that sends Emilia out of the smoke as well, next to Ray.

As they do get knocked out away from the smoke, Asuka jumped back into the fight, clearing the smoke and attempting to punch him with all of the aura from she has.

"THIS IS FOR ROMAN!!!!!" Asuka shouted out loud as she was going for a huge punch to Zero.

Zero noticed Asuka from above where he was standing as he attempts to defend himself.

Meanwhile, Sagura cuts Ao in the face with her weapon as Ao did shoot her in the leg. 

The two drops their weapons as the two starts to get into a hand-to-hand combat fight. 

Sagura attempts to knee Ao in the face, but Ao steps back as he attempted to go for a swift kick to Sagura's legs. But, Sagura jumped up in the air as Ao missed.

Sagura attempted to go for a stomp on Ao's leg from the jump.

Ao puts his hands to the ground and lifts his leg up for a reverse lifting kick to the face of Sagura. 

Sagura blocks this with her aura as she falls back, luckily landing on her feet.

Ao does multiple hand signals as he exhales flames, but Sagura would exhale strong wind waves to block this and it did work. 

Roe attempts to slash at Kaiku, everywhere. But, Kaiku is keeping up with all of Roe's movements by moving out of the way..

Even at a point in time, Roe attempted to slash at Kaiku's neck. Kaiku with an innovative frontflip kick to Roe's hand, as Roe drops Gambol Shroud.

Kaiku follows this up with a jumping spinning punch to Roe and Roe counters this by kicking Kaiku in the gut and then, quickly grabbing Gambol Shroud as she would pull the strap from the sword to Kaiku's waist.

She pulls Kaiku back for a kick again to the gut but Kaiku slide under Roe countering this by using the strap to make Roe fall down to the ground, face first.

Velvet releases the force field, as Ryuuto looks at Tyler, Vanilla, and Kita.

Cinder gritted her teeth in total anger. But, she remembers now about Vanilla...She smirked. "Vanilla Frost...How are you feeling after...Well, that little incident?!"

Vanilla's eyes widened at this as she remembers what Cinder was talking about. Kita, Ryuuto, Tyler, and Velvet didn't know what Cinder meant.

"W-What incident?!"

"Y'know...About your mother...When I killed her and the look on your face before you came to this crumbling little village...It was all priceless."

"Y-You did what?!" Ryuuto's eyes widened in total shock.

"What...? Sister... P-Please tell me that's not true! Please tell me, Vanilla...She has got to be lying?!"

"And...Vanilla, you remember awhile back ago?" Cinder asked with a evil smirk on her face.

Vanilla looked down to the ground as she was in tears, just remembering that horrific time. She was young too when she remembered all of it too... 

"Y-Yes..." She silently spoke as she slowly stood up, walking towards Cinder slowly.

Ryuuto and Kita were left shocked beyond belief, as Velvet and Tyler didn't know how to react to this either. 

"Wait! What are you doing, Vanilla?!"  Tyler asked.

Velvet looked up at Cinder with an angry stare. "What in the hell are you doing, Cinder?!"

"Well, make sure she knows her true place...Darling, I'm here to come back to haunt you...Not only you were revealed as a faunus a front of your friends, your sister, and even the lover of your life...You lied to everyone else that you were a human. You lied to yourself for years that you were happy...

...You know...If everyone weren't still buddy buddy with you...Everyone would hate you, and for you just being a liar and a steal...But, hear me out...I would never treat you with any kinds of hatred, no, no...Would I?!" 

Cinder said out of total manipulation, as she watched Vanilla walk up to her slowly with a evil smile on her face. 

Ryuuto shouted out to Cinder. "STOP FILLING HER WITH YOUR LIES, CINDER!!!"

"Stop, Vanilla...That's not true! We would never hate you, we would forgive you no matter what! Don't believe in what Cinder says...Please!" Kita said, as she did run up to her and held her hand.

"If anything, you're the one filling her up with all of the lies. She got that from her cursed father, who in the previous generation before him once had." Cinder brought up as well.

Ryuuto was surprised by the fact that she brought this up...Shoyo...He once had a curse upon him, that's currently going on at this very moment...He remembered him visiting the old Shoka Shinjuku school that was burnt down at the time when Shoyo was alive.

He remembered it all began in between of Shoyo and Shinpachi's deaths, long ago. 

"Could have my curse made more impact again?! It killed Shinpachi...Caused to Sayuri leave me for Atlas and then to her death....Damn it all..." He thought in his mind.

Ryuuto slowly grabs his sword from his holster. "I gotta...Stop this curse and stop Cinder. I cannot afford losing Vanilla to her."

"What's wrong, Yoshida? Can't pull your sword? Pathetic...You're just like your scared student there, who can't pull his gun out to me....Because he knows he can't beat me alone. He always have to depend on his brothers..." Cinder was looking over towards Tyler, who is shaking nervously to pull his gun out at her.

"Shut up! You don't know Tyler like we all do, Cinder!" 

Tyler tries to pull his gun out. But, he was really trembling, scared, and nervous to even pull it out. He wants to because she is the cause of The Shield's destruction and Roman dying as being one of the end results of that destruction. But at the same time, he was scared...

...He never fought a big threat like Cinder by himself and he wasn't sure if he does manage to pull it out, he may die in result of him fighting Cinder...

"T-Teacher....She's right...I-I'm scared...But, I need to do this! She destroyed a brotherhood that was meaningful to all four of us...We had a bond, we had a brotherhood! UNTIL SHE DESTROYED THAT!!!!"

Tyler would pull out his gun finally and as he was going to shoot, Cinder pulls out her spear and quickly threw it at Tyler. 

"TYLER!" 

"Get out of the way, kid!" 

Velvet, Kita, and Ryuuto tries to stop this quick spear from hitting him.

The spear almost got to Tyler until a man would appear a front of him and destroys the spear, splitting it into two with his sword.

"Shizuka! Now!" The man shouted out. 

Shizuka, who is invisible would kick Cinder in the face from the side, but Cinder somehow saw this coming as she ducks under. 

As the girl was in mid-air after the kick attempt. She grabbed Cinder's arm as she did an arm drag into a kick to the side of Cinder. She would send Cinder away from Vanilla. 

"Sorry...You can't get near any of them here..." 

Tyler was in shock as he had his gun out, he looked at the man ahead of him. "W-Who are you?!"

"Yeah, who are you supposed to be?!" Velvet asked.

Vanilla stood there as she didn't know what to say or do...

The man takes his hood off, as he takes a deep breath in and out. He was spotted with longer blonde hair and a grey spot on the middle of his hair. The man looked like he was middle-age. 

"Well...I'm back home...Guys..."

Ryuuto and Velvet recognized who this was... Both of them didn't see this coming at all....

"Good to have you back...Jaune..." Ryuuto smiled.

"Kids...You may wanna sit back and enjoy the show. I've been looking forward to this for a long time..." Jaune said with a serious look on his face.

Cinder gritted her teeth as she couldn't believe it was Jaune Arc who saved the boy..."I thought I killed you long ago, Jaune Arc..."

"That's where you're wrong...I'm STILL HERE!!!" Jaune points his sword at Cinder, as he yelled at her.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Meanwhile, outside of Beacon Academy in the forest...

Jake tries his hardest to escape but can't since the swords are stuck down on the ground. 

"Dammit..Dammit...Dammit!!!"

Saiko walked up to Jake with his sword in hand, as she raises the sword up and is looking down at Jake's chest. 

".....Die in despair, Jake Belladonna..."

"Oh, no you don't!" 

Someone comes in as soon as Saiko was going to stab Jake in the chest and grabs the sword from Saiko, just from behind. 

Jake was shocked on who was that behind her. He recognized on who that was. "K-Kyrie..."

"I can't let you kill him!"

"....You dare disrupt his incoming death? Are you INSANE?!?!?!" Saiko screamed out to Kyrie, as she slowly walked up to the boy. 

Kyrie backed up as he held the sword in his hand..."G-Get away from me...! I did that to stop you...Killing shouldn't be a way how to solve problems! It's never a peaceful thing!"

"So, what?! Should I believe in that BULLSHIT??? Do you think I CARE? WHAT, BOY?!" 

Saiko corners Kyrie against a tree as she would punch him in the stomach and lifts his face up to look up into her eyes, forcing him.

"Don't be scared...I won't hurt you..." She whispered to him innocently and her eyes glows, looking into his.

"LET HIM GO! YOU BITCH!!!" 

Jake yelled out loud as his hands were pinned down to the ground by the swords into his hands. Lightning goes off the ground as the lightning changes form into lightning stray dogs coming after Saiko.

Saiko quickly took Jake's sword away from Kyrie, as she slashes the sword through the dogs as they fades away into particles from the lightning.

"You idiots don't ever learn, do you?!" 

She gritted her teeth as she would hear Kyrie trying to take a step at her. Saiko attempted to slash his head.

Last minute, Kyrie dodged this and fell back to the ground, as he was shaking in total fear. Scared for his life.

"RUN, KYRIE! NOW!!!" Jake shouted out loud to him.

Kyrie looked over at the injured Jake, but was still shaking in total fear of Saiko and her unstable mentality. "B-But I can't leave! I d-don't wanna run---"

"Please...Leave and go to the village...Send a message that..."

Jake's words were muted as Kyrie's eyes widens in shock. Saiko would come at Jake as she stabs his left leg.

Jake yelled out in pain and shouts out one more time. "GO!!!!"

Kyrie was in tears as he sat up and runs away.

"Oh, no...." 

Jake had his right leg, his boot against her ankle. As he trips her and she falls down.

"Jake....You idiot..." Kyrie thought in his mind as he was heading to the village.

Quick Flashback

"Send a message that I will be there, but...It's for a unfortunate circumstance...She probably may end up controlling me. Use me as a way to get your escape..." Jake whispered to Kyrie, as Kyrie can hear this with his good hearing senses. 

Kyrie's eyes widened in total shock, as he didn't want to do this. But, it's what he wished for..

Flashback ends

Saiko gets even more angry with Jake, as she got on top of him and delivers tons of punches to the face, even some slaps to the face as well. "Stop being so damn rebellious, you little runt...Hmph..." 

Jake grinned to anger and mock Saiko, even so more... He spat some blood to her cheek. "Bring it on, bitch..."

"You will learn how to be DISCIPLINED!" Saiko yelled as she started to laugh in a evil, uncomfortable, and insane way. She was already unstable as is...It's scary..Her eyes began to glow and as she started to look into his eyes.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Tony Shimura finally made it to Britannia Village's bridge. He sees Dean on the opposing side. He had a more of a serious look on his face.

He slowly takes out Siegfried in sword mode.

Dean Ambrose is standing on the opposing side, already in his full demon form. He points it at Tony.

"You've come...Tony Shimura....And you're on time too..."

"So...Dean...Is this where it all ends?...Did it all have to come to this?! I need to know....Why? Why, Dean, Why?! Why would you turn on your hometown people? Why would you turn on everyone who ever looked up to our group, when our group was named one of the best today? Why?! Why must you have to turn on your brothers? Our brotherhood? Tell me Dean...Why? Please..."

Tony asked, as he is doing his best not to be in tears at all. He looked straight at Dean with a emotional look on his face.

Dean remained there with an emotionless look on his face. He kept the Demon-Dweller Sword pointed at Tony. He would then speak out towards his former brother, best friend, and rival..

"You wanna know something, Shimura? I always had my respect for you...I always saw you as my brother and my rival, I thought I could look up to you...But, boy was I wrong?!...I was ever wrong...Now, I am in the right! Why?!...To begin with...I've been abused by my father, lost my mother, been overlooked for so many years until you finally noticed me and became rivals, became brothers in a group that was filled with brotherhood and teamwork. But, even during that time...I was still overlooked and what's worse I was called by so many horrible names and been threatened....Because of a power that I didn't realize that I even had until now...Cinder had woken up my true power and brought it to life. With that power...

...Even my subconscious told me to finally unleash the hatred and all of that pain out, which I did! I'm glad I did that! The look on your face and everyone else! It WAS PRICELESS! FOR ONCE, YOU PEOPLE FINALLY NOTICED ME AND WHAT I CAN DO!...Cinder once told me...It's either you kill or you get killed in this world. This world is very cruel, isn't it, Tony?! I decided to kill, because...Revenge is absolute. Killing is absolute. It cleanses all of the sins that this WORLD CARRIES WITHIN ITSELF! You got your answer, Shimura...Let me tell you...It's all your fault...Not mine! Why?! It's the people you WERE supposed to protect...

...Instead, what did you do?! You had to go after me when I never NEEDED you! I never did needed you, I never will...I know what I'm doing...This world needs to die. Remember what we envisioned?! We envisioned a world without any sorts of danger or worry in the world! Guess what?! That world needs to...End here and now. Everyone deserves to suffer the same pain I suffered a long time ago and yes, it'll include you too...You had no senses in your time looking for me...Darkness and despair clouded you from me. I'm sure you know what's it like to be me now...Being treated like shit and feeling like you are tearing apart piece by piece, and then breaking before your very eyes... You can blame yourself for letting that happen...You can even blame yourself for the worry you created for the people you SWORN to protect and started a war...THIS IS ALL BECAUSE OF YOU, TONY SHIMURA!!!!"

Dean had all of this pent-up frustration he's held for all of these years, it felt good to express himself and notably, he was a little bit teary-eyed.

Tony was in beyond disbelief in what Dean said, as he was looking down. He looked up at the sky and blinked, saying this to Dean in this response. 

"Sure...I may know how you feel. It hurt just having to fight two of my closest friends and it even hurt more when I couldn't find you, and found more darkness and despair within that road...Going alone to find you. That hurt too...But, it didn't break my goal on wanting to find--"

"Not true...You did give up and ended up fighting Ruby Rose...Bad mistake, buddy." Dean evilly smirked at Tony.

"Maybe, that's true...But thanks to a few people who kicked my ass or even said a word to me, to wake up, find myself and my goal, and then move on! I call those people my friends, Dean...They are nowhere near enemies...Unlike Cinder. I don't kill people...I will hurt someone, if they give me every reason to hurt them. But, I don't mean it! It just needs to happen! Dean...I know this isn't you on the things you're saying. It is Cinder's words that is making you say that. You--"

"SHUT UP! YOU DON'T KNOW--"

"NO! YOU SHUT UP, DEAN! OR DEMON, WHATEVER YOUR NAME IS! I will bring you back and I will even kick your STUPID ASS to do so, if you won't give up all of this bullshit YOU SPEAK! We don't want this Dean Ambrose. We want the Dean Ambrose that's a funny guy, a uplifting person, and a good friend to people when they need to talk! The Dean Ambrose we knew who fought beside us and who we called as a brother back! We want the Ambrose, we knew back...Mark my words...We will all bring peace back into this world when this war is all set and done...Count on it...For the better, I will bring you back when we do that! I will DO IT because you're my friend! You're my rival! You're my brother!" Tony shouted back at Dean as he points Siegfried at him. 

Dean was stunned as Tony had said that he was his "friend, rival, and brother"....He shook it off with that emotionless look on his face. Which his expression changes into a evil and psychotic laughter. He tilted his head slightly and smiled evilly at him.

"Forget it, Shimura! I will not change...This world will die in for a new one without worry, but pain...And this world may not even NEED YOU when it's created! I will kill you! Cinder will kill everyone else, even Tyler...."

"Fine...Be that way! I will STILL bring you back, die trying!!!"

Tony shouted at Dean. As the two would start running towards each other with their respective swords in hand. Tony would put his aura into the sword and it would create a brand new wind flaming sword. Dean's Demon-Dweller Sword ignites into dark flames.

Tony and Dean is shown in a vision as kids, then teens, and finally their current selves.

The episode ends with the two eyeing at each other as the two would start to fight each other.

Ending Credits

Song Name: Niji/Rainbow by Shinki Horou/Vacuum Hallow

I know very well

The ending credits begins with a dark background.

I understand better than anyone

Dean Ambrose standing all alone in a dark, cold place. He was holding his Demon-Dweller Sword with his back turned. He had dark markings all over his body. It was seen all over his arm as it was up to his face and above his left eye.

I'll try to go over the rainbow in the sky

A close-up shows Ambrose looking up as the visuals change with him standing in the rain all alone, as he was standing a front of an bloodied and already dead, Roman Reigns, Tyler Black, who is in shock and Tony Shimura standing there as he was in total shock, yet he was in anger. Ambrose was seen in his Demon form, as Cinder Fall watched with an evil smile on her face. Nashime "Kita" Yoshida, Vanilla Frost, Seth Thurston, and Mutsuko Crowe were in total shock after what Dean had done.

When will I able to achieve it?

The horrific scene would transition to seeing Dean in his demon form as the close up goes into his right eye as it would show younger Dean being abused by his father and is trying to save his mother from him.

I can not even if I repeat everything

What's next is shown with Dean grieving at his mother's grave, but Ryuuto Yoshida was right there next to him. Giving the young boy, some comfort from his mother's unfortunate passing.

I must continue to possess my future painting

The next thing shown is Dean at the dinner table alongside with Ryuuto, and his two daughters, Vanilla Frost and Nashime "Kita" Yoshida, having a good time.

Then, it would show Tony standing side by side with Roman, Tyler, Mutsuko, and Seth Thurston facing off with Cinder Fall, Roe Ket, and Katsuke Shinoda as Dean and Vanilla with Kita had their backs turned, looking towards Saiko Mayama and Zero Kishitani, as Tony had Siegfried in hand, pointing it at the enemy.

Although these plans also had someone

This would transition to seeing Jake and Wraith Belladonna, alongside with Shinsuke Takasugi standing a front of Cinder Fall at Atlas Academy.

I know very well

Then, it would show Kita holding her hand out to Dean, as it would show two more transitions of her smiling at her and the final cut to her in tears as Dean walked into the darkness from her.

This is useless

The next scene would show Asuka Reigns with a sad look on her face as she held her big brother's hand, Roman Reigns' hand as he was in his deathbed. Emilia Rose was there to comfort her. But, Kaiku and Sagura Shimura standing looking out at the window in worry for their brother.

You want to believe in the morning after seeing my eyes.

Demon Dean, as he is seen with Roe Ket, Saiko Mayama, Zero Kishitani, and Ao Thurston with him. In the background is shown with multiple people within Cinder's group, standing at the Britannia Village's bridge that leads to a waterfall below.

It would soon show Tony Shimura on a tree branch, just a few trees off from Cinder Fall with Saiko Mayama in a confrontation about Dean leaving Beacon and dissolving The Shield. Tony having a look of desperation on his face.

Another moment sees former Shoka Shinjuku students, Kintoki, Asuka, Emilia, Kaiku, Sagura, Tyler, Kita, and Vanilla alongside with Zaveid, Ryuuto Yoshida, and Velvet Crowe preparing for the proposed big fight with Cinder's group in the village, defending for Vale.

Are you sure?

Tony Shimura in a mental breakdown and Vanilla Frost trying to calm him down but then, Velvet Crowe started to hug him from behind. Mother to son. Kaiku and Sagura was with Vanilla as well. 

Next moment would see in Tony's vision is Dean walking away from him into darkness from Tony, as Tony tried to go after him. But, Tyler was standing there in the middle of Tony and Dean between the light and dark. Tyler had a sad look on his face, as he stops Tony. He would then fade away.

I know very well

Tony would soon feel the yandere's touch, Saiko Mayama standing behind him and tries to hug him as Vanilla would come in and hug Tony. Saiko fades away from him. Tony is shown with a broken look on his face. Velvet would appear a front of him with a smile on her face. Then, Tony's eyes widens and lit up as he knew what he needed to do next.

You don't need to go!

Then, you see Velvet walking away and tearing up, as she fades away into the light alongside with Shoyo Yoshida and Tony's dad, Shinpachi Shimura, leaving everything to him. 

Across the rainbow, my hopes for my future

Tony looked down, but he looked up at Demon Dean. The two were standing far off from each other, on the bridge. On Britannia Village's bridge as the war was going on in Britannia. He grabs Siegfried as it was in sword mode and he pointed at Dean.

Dean had his Demon-Dweller Sword ready, as he was pointed it at Tony.

I know very well, I know very well!

Flashback shows of the two apart readying their swords in practice at Shoka Shinjuku, as the scene would fade into showing the present Tony and Dean standing on opposing sides as the two ran towards each other to begin their fight as Vanilla and Kita had tried to stop both Tony and Dean from fighting each other.

Preview: Episode 21, Season 2 - Fate vs. Destiny

In the Vacuo Medical Facility, Katsuke Shinoda had been evaluated and he was in the room, on his hospital bed as he awaits for the doctor to come back with the results.

Sayaka Ishiyama and Gintoki Sakata were in the same room as Shinoda. 

Shinoda had explained everything of his past, his time in Course Academy, exile from Vacuo and his clan, and his reasoning for siding with Cinder before betrayal. Ishiyama and Sakata were a bit surprised on what he told the two.

"Whoa...So, you were set out to be one of the promised students at Course, but Mutsuko kicked you from the school due to horrible behaviors and then, your clan exiled your friend due to being accused of killing the head of your family's clan?" Gintoki asked as he looked over at Shinoda.

"And...Cinder offered you and Zero a deal of revenge upon everyone else as she was building an empire for her nasty plan upon the new generation and the world again...But, all of that was put to a halt when Dean joined and then you two blew up?" Sayaka added to Gintoki's question.

Shinoda nodded slowly. "Yeah. Only if I kept my damn mouth shut, my arms wouldn't be as broken as they are now. Man...And Zero...I wonder why he did't save me...I don't know why..."

_________________________________________________________________________________

Cinder ran towards Jaune with her sword, as she and Jaune clashes off. The two would do back and forth swordsmanship fighting.

Both of them are sent back by the force of their clash.

Jaune ran towards Cinder as he would attempt to slash at her. She responds back with quick sword blocks, as she gets him in the cheek but Jaune would slash at her arm. 

"Vanilla...Wake up, please! We need you!" Kita begged her sister, as she held onto her hand. 

Vanilla was frozen still, as she didn't know what to do. "...I don't know...I-I lied to all of you...I hid these horrible truths from you all. That makes me a...A...A horrible person. I hid my emotions, my true identity as a faunus, and more I lied to you all..."

Velvet would place a hand on Vanilla's shoulder and looks at her with face value. "Vanilla...Sure, you may had hid your emotions and identity, but that doesn't make who you are really...Why? Personality and the way you speak to people, whether if it's your father, your sister, or your friends only counts. You never made lies to begin with. You had your reasons, didn't you?...It's not your fault. It never was...Cinder is just putting shit into your head, just to make you believe that you're the cause of Cinder killing her when you didn't do anything...You would never be the cause of such insolence...Especially how amazing your actions have been so far....

....You went confessed to my son on how you felt after it's been years of trying to tell him and you brought him back to us. You were the reason he's still alive. You do good things, for good reasons...Believe me...We are forever grateful that you went and saved him when we were also searching for him."

She hugged her as Vanilla tries not to cry here. 

"Vanilla...You are very much special...You can literally change fate with your words, your courage, and even your actions. All in all...It's amazing..." 

Ryuuto said with a smile on his face. 

"Good job, kiddo..." He added.

Kyrie tries to get past Qrow and Benjamin, as he is trying to pass Jake's message onto everyone else.

"Hey! Can you let me through?! Please! This is urgent!" 

"Sorry, kid...We can't..." Qrow said as he crosses his arms and looked at the boy.

Benjamin looked back at the boy, then at Qrow. "Let's hear him out..." 

"So? What's urgent? What happened?"

"Well...This is a message passed on from Jake!" Kyrie exclaimed!
