"ADAM!" Blake shouted, taking a step back as the taller, bull faunus tried to attack the Belladonna, with Wilt. Adam just continued to move forward.

"You're the imposter— god I should have known." Blake managed to blurt, her back now against a wall, as she couldn't step back anymore. Adam stepped forward, placing the tip of the blade beside her head. "Any last words?" He asked as Blake glanced at the tip of the sword in fear.

Suddenly, Adam was thrown against the wall, as Maeve rushed in, her Wolverine claws splayed out. "Get away from my girlfriend you motherfucker!!" The Lopez girl hissed. Adam sat up, slightly disoriented but surprised as he looked to the other faunus.

Adam got to his feet and grabbed his blade, and began to fight with Maeve, as she deflected his moves with ease. "You're a bit rusty, I must say." Maeve grinned as she kept missing his attacks, and managed to hold him off. Blake watched, terrified. Her weapon wasn't with her, she didn't know what to do.

"Blake!! I need you to go and call a meeting— now!!" Maeve insisted as Blake's eyes widened, "And leave you with him? Hell no!!" She insisted, shaking her head. "I can hold him off, believe me." Maeve replied, as Adam was surprisingly weaker in battle than she remembered, though neither Blake or Maeve realised that it was an act.

Blake sighed, and reluctantly got to her feet, before leaving Electrical, to rush into the cafeteria.

Stella's eyes widened in shock, as Kiko told her who had attempted to kill her. The Valentine felt like she could only hear static, as she thought about those they lost. How they all trusted Adam, believing he had really changed. The pinkette turned on her heels and raced out of Medbay, to go and call an emergency meeting.

Pyrrha lifted Kiko into a portable stretcher, and began to wheel her out of Medbay, to go after Stella. She didn't trust to leave Kiko alone, not now that they knew who the imposter is... and what he is capable of.

They entered the cafeteria, Stella and Blake both meeting at the large middle table, to press the big red button and call a meeting.

"Blake?!" Stella asked, as Blake barely spared a glance for the girl, as she slammed on the button, urgently. "I know who the imposter is." The Belladonna said. "So do we." Stella answered.

"I need to go back to Maeve." Blake spun on her heels and ran, but not before she grabbed Elektra off of Stella. "Maeve? What's happening to Maeve?!" Stella asked, concern laced in her voice.

Maeve managed to flick Wilt out of Adam's hand, and across the room. She then held out on of her bladed gauntlets towards the Taurus, as he took a step back.

"Why did you do it— why did you kill all of our friends!?" She asked in almost a yell, as tears were forming in her eyes. "I had to." Adam simply answered. Maeve just shook her head, "That makes literally no sense Adam... you didn't have to kill them— it was your choice."

"You wouldn't understand." Adam answered.

Growing angry, Maeve stepped forward but suddenly Adam put reached out his leg and tripped her up, getting sliced by some of her blades along the way, before he raced to get his own weapon.

"No... no you are not getting away from me!" Maeve yelled out, before she raced over to him and swiped at him. He fought back, and suddenly got Wilt stuck within one of her clawed gauntlets.

With that, he had control now and threw the fox faunus around, before throwing her against the wall, her hand slipping out of the gauntlet as it remained on Adam's weapon. The Lopez slid to the ground, before inevitably hitting the hard floor with a thud.

He approached her, and held the tip of the blade underneath her chin, and lifted it, so Maeve had to face him. The girl looked to him, anger and betrayal in her eyes.

"You know... I didn't want my next victim to be you. Why did you have to walk in. It was supposed to be Blake." Adam admitted as Maeve let out a pained sigh, "I was right not to trust you." She said, her tone laced with venom, though it wasn't true.. she had begun to trust him again, but Maeve didn't want Adam to know that.

Striking a nerve, Adam glared before he did what he had planned to do to Blake instead. He killed Maeve.

The fox faunus let out a sharp breath, as the blade had stabbed through her abdomen. Adam removed the blade slowly, as blood poured out from the wound, and Maeve fell to her side, now laying onto the cold hard floor.

"Goodbye, Maeve." Adam said, before he turned around and left electrical, as Maeve laid alone, in a pool of her own blood, as she took her very last breath. Her vision began to blur as she watched Adam exit through the doorway.

He passed Blake on his way to the cafeteria, and she saw the blood covered sword, and quickly covered her mouth in surprise, as she worried that her worst fears were true.

Without caring that Adam could come after her, she ran to Electrical.

Adam entered the cafeteria, as everyone turned to him, he was holding up the large blood stained weapon, as their faces dropped.

There was an ear piercing scream heard from Electrical, as Blake found Maeve's lifeless body.

Adam dropped the sword, on the ground as everyone stared at it in shock, before their eyes looked up to Adam who confidently said. "You're probably all aware... that I'm the imposter."

Blake fell to her knees and sobbed hysterically, as she couldn't do anything. She was too late. Maeve was gone.

"I shouldn't have ran... I shouldn't have left your side..." Blake confessed, feeling cowardly. "I'm so sorry Maevey." She cried, feeling so heartbroken and alone.
