Chapter 19: Allegiance Change

(SCENE: ANCIENT ATLASIAN SHRINE) (POV: Y/N KAHN)

After Union, my attention was focused onto Atlas next. And Regis & our United forces to distract Atlas while I acquire the next 3 orbs.

I journeyed deep into the Atlasian landscape to find what I was looking for: an Ancient Temple, long thought forgotten. I was about to approach the shrine when I detect something.

"You all can come out. I know your there." I said aloud. Soon, Winter, the Ace Ops and Willow came out of hiding.

"I'm surprised you're here, Ms Schnee. I thought you would be hiding in a fancy vault with all of your fortune." I say as Willow chuckles. "Please, what good is fortune if your country is built on slavery? I'm here because I want to make a change." She says as she steps forward.

"Even after what your family has done to innocent beings?" I asked in suspicion. Willow says nothing as she takes out a folded piece of paper and hands it to me. I unraveled the paper and, to my shock, is Willow's signed contract to donate her animals to private sanctuaries and have her zoo demolished.

"Why?" I asked her. "Because I went to the hospital to see Fria and I overheard your speeches. After sometime, I realized you were right: we were becoming like that worthless bastard who lives with us. I decided to take action. This is just the start. Soon, I'll need to reclaim the Schnee Company back from him. But I can't do it with just my Daughter and her Team." She explains as she gives me a pleading look.

"I know I don't deserve any help, after what my family before me have done. But know this: I'm through with letting corruption and greed poison Atlas. I can't do that without help and your army is strong enough to fix that." She explains as she grabs my hands. "So, can I please ask for your assistance?" She asks.

I take their words into careful consideration, since this could very well be a trap. But the fact Willow came to me, proves to me that she's ready to change her family's ways and wants to create a new future for everyone.

However, before I could say anything, I pushed Willow out of the way as I blocked an incoming Kunai. "We'll discuss plans later. But for now, we got more important matters to attend to." I said as I enter a combat stance, with Winter and the Ace Ops joining me.

"Come out from the shadows, Shinobis! I knew you've been following me!" I exclaimed. Soon, two women came out, though I was surprised to see them not in their uniforms.

"Easy kid, we're not here to fight." Says the blonde women. "Think you can fool me? I know about your connections to Union. How do I know you're not accompanied by Huntresses or Devils?" I asked in suspicion.

"At ease, we've broke off from Union a long time ago." Says the black haired women as the blonde haired women nods in agreement. "Yes, we separated from Union due to them falling from grace." The blonde women says.

This peeked my interest as I looked in their minds. But what surprise me is that they split off because of me.

(POV CHANGE: 3RD PERSON)

(Flashback)

"WHAT?!?!?" Exclaims Tsunade. "You can't be serious?!?!?" Exclaims Shizune. "We're dead serious, girls. We allowed Y/n L/n into Union, just to be the students personal training dummy." Ozpin says.

"But he's a human being, like you all and us. He doesn't deserve that!" Shizune exclaims. "Be that as it may, the Prophecy outweighs any concern of ours." Jiraya tries to reason with them.

"OH THAT STUPID PROPHECY, HOW CAN YOU BE SURE IT'S EVEN TRUE AND NOT SOME DELUSIONAL FANTASY MADE BY SOME DRUNKED UP FROGS?!?!?!?" Exclaims Tsunade in anger.

"Because the Toads are some of the greatest summons the world has ever seen." Jiraya arrogantly exclaims, causing Tsunade to sigh.

"Tsunade, Shizune, you need to understand we're doing this for everyone's good, including Y/n L/n. He'll understand when the Prophecy is completed." Sirzechs reasons with them. "Oh please, he's already losing faith in Union. I honestly can't blame him, considering the arrogant attitudes of the several students here." Tsunade says.

"Oh please, our students aren't arrogant, they're just being kids. And besides, how do we know this isn't just one of Y/n's attempt to gain attention because he got a few bruises during training?" Jiraya asks with slight annoyance.

"Because training doesn't him being in the medical wing for an entire week with severe burns, lacerations all over his body, concussions and that's just in training! TRAINING!!!" Tsunade exclaims.

"Yes, if this just from training, then I cannot bare to imagine what he goes through during free time." Shizune says as she pales a bit at the thought.

"Ladies, listen, I know you're concern for the boy's safety, but you must understand we're doing this for the greater good." Nezu says. "And if the Prophecy doesn't come true, then everything and everyone we know will be destroyed!" Jiraya exclaims.

Tsunade and Shizune sigh in annoyance. "You guys know we would do anything to help our friends, families and allies, but this isn't what we should be doing. Instead, we should treat everyone equally and fairly. But you allowed yourselves to become slaves to something that'll most likely not come true. Though I know what I'll won't help, but be warned: if this goes wrong in any other way, you all will have no one to blame but yourselves. And so, we believe the best course of actions is to forget about this ridiculous Prophecy and start acting like proper Headmasters." Tsunade explains.

"BUT WE CAN'T!!! THE WORLD SHOULDN'T SUFFER BECAUSE OF ONE BRAT!!!" Jiraya exclaims in anger and annoyance. "Jiraya, I don't know what happened to the man you were, but now you're nothing like you were before." Shizune says as Tsunade nod in agreement.

"And so, me and Shizune have decided: we're leaving Union City." Tsunade reveals, shocking the Headmasters. "WHAT?!?!?!?" They exclaimed in shock. "But why?!? You two are some of the best around!" Nezu exclaims frantically. "Because we're done with all this chaos and madness. We're done with this pointless war against Salem and her allies. But more importantly: we're done with the Heroes arrogance and selfish." Shizune explains as she and Tsunade leaves the office.

(Flashback end)

Y/n Kahn removes himself from their minds and memories. "You two have made a wide decision. Union have fallen too far from grace, ever since they've been informed of the Toad's Prophecy, without realizing that possible consequences can be resulted." He says as he shook hands with them.

"Thank you, Y/n. Or, should I call you by your new title: Y/n Kahn?" Shizune asks as Y/n Kahn chuckles. "I don't care what anyone calls me. I have long moved passed being affected by petty name insults." He says as turns to Willow, Winter and the Ace Ops. "Now as for you all, I'll help you all in overthrowing Jacques from his seat of power. But be warned: the White Fang have also allied with me and they hold personal vendettas towards the Schnee family. But let me handle them. It's not the first time I've dealt with Humans possessing Animal Traits that've been mistreated and suffer severe racism from others." He explains.

Willow, Winter and the Ace Ops smiled at this as they could finally end the war between Humans and Faunuses, once and for all.

(Here's chapter 19 done. I did intended for Danzo to encounter Y/n Kahn, but I changed it to Tsunade and Shizune because I had other ideas for Danzo. Anyways, next chapter will the mending of broken trust/relationships between the Schnees and the Faunuses.)
