Chapter XXXI: The Last Gamble Pt. 1

Y/N's POV

Weiss and Blake entered the auditorium as I stood above on a steel bar. Waiting for the strike, plus I needed to let my aura regenerate after that fight with Ruby and Yang, last time I checked it was 75%. That's still not enough, not enough for a head-on battle with two huntresses. I decided to play around with them a bit before I made my decisive move.

Me: Playing the hero huh? Just like your two teammates before.

Weiss: Where are you? Don't be a coward, if your so brave as to attack Beacon Academy in the first place, why don't you face us right here and now?

I chuckled, admiring the powerful echo it gave throughout the auditorium.

Me: There's a difference Miss Schnee, in being cowardly, and being tactical. I can still win against you, frankly I understand that you don't really understand strategic play. Utilizing your semblance is your greatest strength, but you can't attack what you cannot see.

Blake: Why are you doing this? What have huntsmen ever done to you?!

Blake shouted.

Me: Why? WHY! Oh, you don't know a thing don't you Blake.

Blake: Know what?

Me: Huntsmen are probe to corruption and temptation as any other human being. You pride yourselves on protecting the human race when the huntsman protecting my village went off and abandoned us in out time of need... for a woman... A WOMAN!

I too yelled.

Blake: Well, we're really sorry you weren't able to save your village. But that doesn't give an exc-

Me: You haven't let me finished, bitch.

I said blandly, as if I were in a casual sounding conversation.

Me: Humans betray, deceive, kill and frankly this is kind of ironic speaking to you guys. But I've had a revelation in the past few years-

Blake: You're insane, killing all those people just to prove your little thought? Or are you just trying to distract us so you can escape?

What a rude woman...

Me: Planets usually have a species that is dominant over the others, a species that controls the planet. Don't you find it weird how the Grimm have been becoming smarter these past few weeks? They're evolving, evolving to replace humanity as the sole dominant species on the planet.

Weiss: Pffft, as if. How can another species be the dominant force if there is already a dominant species on the planet.

Me: Oh... so easy for a rich, heiress of a dust company to blurt out. Don't you get it?

Weiss: Get what?

Me: Well, I guess I'm gonna simply give the simple answer to you, as simplest as I can. Well it's so simple the simple simplicity of this simple sentence is simple enough to The Grimm are never ending, once you kill one another will just take it's place. Your so-called revolutionary minerals, what did you call it now? Oh yeah, 'Dust'. Is for your information impractical. It's in short supply, a non-renewable resource. Humanity is the inferior species because we need these crystals to survive.

Blake: Well duh, those 'crystals' are the reason the Grimm are losing.

Me: And what will happen once the crystals run out? What happens then to the species that you called dominant once their source of survival is depleted? Wars... Famines... Death. You're fighting a battle you'll never win.

The girls didn't even follow up on what I had just said. They just stood there, silent.

Me: And frankly, I see huntsmen as not just a bunch of inglorious bastards who only care about fame and being the best, when you're supposed to be helping humanity with the Grimm. I see them as a false symbol of hope... a barrier in the way of evolution, you are only stalling what's supposed to be happening, Remnant doesn't belong to Humans... OR the Faunus.

Weiss: I-we...

She stuttered, also silent after that. I could feel their sorrow, their pain as they revel in my point of view. I grimaced, knowing their initial view of the world is now gone forever.

Me: That's too much for you?... Well, welcome to a World of Bloody Evolution.

Blake: Well you're obviously one of the crazy ones.

Me: Excuse me?

I asked, viciously.

Blake: Nevertheless there is still a chance... We're just willing to take it.

She seemingly smirked, before looking right at me.

Blake: Hello up there Y/N.

She said, before flinging her weapon to me. The one with the ribbon attached. SHIT!

I quickly leapt out of the way, activated my semblance and trailed past the metallic beam and to the wall, where I dashed down to the ground.

Me: How...

I asked, bewildered.

Blake: Do you know why I wear this ribbon on my head?

I stood up, walking around the two huntresses as I slowly drew out my revolver. Blake then drew her pistol and fired. Grazing my cheek as I fired twice at her. I ducked down as I frantically holstered my weapon and took out an Ace of Clubs drone card. Of course! The bow was a cover for her Faunus traits! HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO STUPID!?

Me: Activate Night Vision Mode. Strategy Set. Hit and Run.

I chucked it at the girls as it activated and locked onto it's targets. I heard Weiss cry out in pain as Blake swore and tried to intercept the drone.

Weiss: Take that dammed device out, I will deal with this middle-class cunt.

I took out my butterfly knife, unfolding it as I charged directly at Weiss. Knocking her over, she formed a glyph to try and block me, but I'm not so sure that I'm on her left, because I'm in front of her.

Me: Eye problems?

I kicked her, she leapt up and formed a fire-based glyph to shoot flames at me. I cartwheeled backwards. Dodging the stinging beams.

Just then I heard a cold squeeze. And I felt a chill near my ankle. Weiss had used ice dust.

Me: Ah! Fuck you! You got me!

Weiss: Blake! Take out the drone, I have him trapped.

Blake: That's great, I'd check if I wasn't over here right now dealing with this infuriating piece of shit. *slice* OW! Stay still for the love of the gods!

Weiss began to try and feel around, trying to find the ice that she thought she had encased me into. While in reality it had simply been formed a few centimetres from my right ankle. Tiptoeing behind her, I sighted her dust satchel. Reaching into the enticing and fancy-looking little thing and swiping out a few dust canisters for myself.

Weiss: What the-?

She gasped, as I felt myself up behind her. And opened a random Dust canister, positioning it in front of her nose for her own little pleasure.

Me: Eat your Dust!

I tauntingly proclaimed, covering her mouth, and feeling her sniff in some of the canister's containment. Smirking, I rapidly dashed away out of the auditorium.

Blake's POV

While fighting the drone I heard Weiss emit a violent sounding sneeze. Followed by the distinct sound of her ice being formed.

Weiss: Ahh! AHHH! AHHHH!! CHOOO!!! *Freezes* MY NODE! I can't thill by node!!!

I was finally able to destroy the drone with a lucky swipe, that's when I saw Weiss with icicles sticking out from her nose, trying desperately to warm them up, as I desperately tried to hold in a giggle.

Blake: No no no! He's getting away! Weiss is it alright if I go after him?

Weiss: Yeth, thure... Just need do, retht, for a boment.

She assured, I nodded back and ran out of the auditorium to find him. It's time to stop that maniacal bastard once and and for all.
