Ryu was lying down enjoying his life whilst listening to music.

Ryu: Like the Sun,
I run,
Into the heat of day.
Like a Knight
I'll Fight
Until the fight is is won.
In a Rage
I slay
Each and every each and every and every one-

Shojo: Hey you could be called the Dark Knight.

Ryu: That- ..... Actually that fits me pretty well.

Salem: Ryu get over here!

Ryu: Oy vey.

Ryu teleported to Salem with her having a slightly aggravated look.

Salem: I thought I told you to attend the attack on Haven with Cinder. Yet I find you here just listening to music!

Ryu: Come on I can teleport to them at any time. Hell if a little bit of time to myself would change me going there.

Salem: Yes you can get there in the blink of an eye, but they already started the attack!

Ryu: Oh. Guess I lost track of time.

Salem started getting angrier making the widows start to crack.

May: Uh oh.

Salem: Just go!

Ryu: Oh right see yah!

Ryu flashed away leaving May in the same room as Salem. Salem still continuing to grow angrier looked at May.

Salem: Leave!

May knowing what was about to happen quickly ran out of the room. Salem screamed as the widows broke with a shockwave.

Elsewhere!

Cinder was fighting Aurora and they were pretty much on the same terms of strength. They two had clashed Bladers and were completely even.

Cinder: Impressive, I didn't think anyone who wasn't a Maiden could be this powerful.

Aurora: And I didn't think anyone who IS a Maiden could be so chatty.

Aero was fighting with Keith not doing very well.

Keith: You know, I didn't think you would actually still be weaker than me after 8 months of of traveling nonstop.

Aero: Oh I'll show you who's weak!

Aero activated her Semblance impressing Keith.

Keith: Much more like it. This time I might get a proper challenge.

Ruby was fighting Emerald and much to everyone's surprise-

She was doing VERY well. Every time Emerald tried to use an illusion, she just went straight the it severely confusing everyone other the team good guys. And yet again when Emerald tried to make Ruby see an Illusion of Cinder, she was only focused on Emerald moving.

Emerald: That's it how the hell can you see through it?!

Ruby: Cause like a once friend told me, "I can see through Bullshit!"

Yang was fighting with Mercury and was overpowering him.

Yang: I know what you were trying to pull on me pack at the festival. Cheep trick you know that?

Mercury: Wasn't my plan.

The rest of team JNPR were fighting Hazel who wasn't taking it very seriously. Weiss fought Vernal and was kind of loosing, Ozpin's new- I mean the new character Oscar was fighting Leonardo Lionheart and winning, and a mildly pissed of Qrow was fighting Raven. All in all, the bad guys were just about to be on the back end. That is until someone we all know and love appeared.

Ryu: You know, this is usually this is when the Hero comes swooping in to save the day.

He a dawned an evil smile as red flashed of his eyes.

Ryu: This, is not that type of story.

Weiss: Ryu?!

Ryu looked around seeing some familiar faces and also a new one.

Ryu: Well well, if it isn't Yang and Ice Princess. Long time no see.

Yang New Outfit

Weiss New Outfit

Ryu: To bad it'll be the last time we see each other.

Yang: So it's true. You really did turn on us.

Weiss: How could you if all people be this much of a traitor?!!

Ryu: How could you not have the courage to say no to coming home with your "Oh so caring father"?

Weiss: Oh you-

Aurora: Save it Weiss. Things just went from bad to worse.

Ryu: So miss Spring Maiden, still having trouble with your brother over there?

Qrow: Spring Maiden?!!

Raven: Shut up!

Ryu: To late.

Aurora: Well things just got even more out of hand.

Yang: She's the Spring Maiden?!

Ryu: Ok what use would hiding it do?

Cinder: Giving ya the element of surprise!

Ryu: Ruby and Aero were here, surprise was out of the question.

Keith: Well that just happened.

Ryu: Ok I could stand here talking all day, but I think I'll start picking you lot off. Let's see. Eni Mini Mani- Ren.

Ren: Oh no.

Ryu was flashed straight over to Ren and almost connected a blow on him if it weren't for Jaune putting up his shield. His barely kept the two ok as they slammed into the walls with Ren breaking Jaune's fall.

Jaune: Thanks Ren.

Ren (In Pain): No problem...

Ryu: Shoot shouldn't have half assed that one. So who's the kid?

Oscar: Oh no.

Oscar "He didn't deserve to be involved in all of this madness" Pine.

Ryu: Why do I have the strangest feeling like I've met you before.

Oscar. I mean you might have met me once before, just, not like this.

Ryu: The heck do you mean by that?

Ryu was about to go in and take a closer look at Oscar, but was met by a scythe hitting him in the back of the head.

Ryu: Ruby you better have a damn good reason for that.

Ruby: Cause I plan on taking you down!!

Ryu looked at Ruby for a solid 4 seconds before bursting out in laughter.

Ryu: HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Ryu dropped to one knee as he kept laughing until tears came of his eyes.

Ryu: Woooooooooo. That is the funniest thing I've ever heard in my entire LIFE!

Aero appeared behind Ryu and tried to attack him but received a back fist to the side of the face sending her crashing into the wall.

Ryu: Nice try, but no.

Vernal took the time to get a cheep shot on Weiss and hit her with laser beams from her weapons, breaking her Aura and piercing through her stomach. Cinder also took a cheap shot on Aurora as she made a Blade of Fire and was about to stab her before Ruby shouted.

Ruby: NOOOOOOO!!!!

Her eyes flowed Silver shocking and slightly worrying Ryu. Cinder fell to the ground clutching her arm while Ryu held his head in pain.

Ryu: GAH MY HEAD!!!

Shojo: This is worse than the time I saw Madara rip out his brothers eyes!!

Ruby recovered from the use of her eyes and saw that Ryu was immobile.

Ruby: Aero, nows your chance! Do it now!!!

Ruby threw up a Dino Capsule and Aero came out from the rubble catching it.

Aero: Oh I will.

She tossed the capsule in the air and it revealed something that absolutely terrified Ryu.

Ryu: OH GOD NO! NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!!

Shojo: WE ARE SO DEAD!!

Aurora: Wait how-

Keith: The-

Qrow: Absolute-

Raven: Hell-

Cinder: Is he scared of that thing?

What Cinder was talking about was a weapon of pure Destruction that could destroy everything in a Million Mile radius leaving nothing left. A weapon that is only known as-

MOTHER FUCKING GOD BREAKER!!!!!

Ryu: Hey Aero, let's just talk about this.

Aero: I'm not the one who's gonna do the talking. She will.

Ryu: *Heavy Gulp* Seriously if you use her this place is gonna be gone!

Ruby: She knows what not to destroy.

Shojo: WE ARE DEAD!! SO DEAD!! DEAD MEN BE WE!!!

Ruby: Oh relax Shojo, you'll be fine.

Ryu tried to run but found himself being bound in place. He he looked down to see that he was standing in flex glue much to his horror. He looked back at Aero who was going on a full blow sprint to Ryu.

Ryu: OH HELL!!!

Ruby: Sorry Ryu but you need some sense to be whacked into you.

Shojo: This is not gonna end well is it?

Ryu was stuck in place not being able to move as Aero held a weapon of mass destruction in her hand.

Aero: BATTER UP!!

Shojo: This is not gonna be good is it?

Ryu: 'Well I guess this is what I get for being dumb enough to get controlled.'

Aero was right in front of Ryu about to swing at him. In the nano seconds that were left before the collision, they both had their hands in a praying position.

Elsewhere!

In the distance Sun and Blake were making there way to were the White Fang were with the authorities. They both saw an explosion in the distance which shocked them.

Sun: WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON OVER THERE?

???: aaaaaaaaaaaa-

Blake: Sun do you hear that?

Sun: Yeah.

???: AAAAAAAAAAAAAA-

Sun: And it's getting a lot closer.

Blake: And come to think of it, it sounds a lot like-

Ryu: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Ryu went flying behind them at high speeds.

Blake: Was that Ryu?!!!!

He finally stopped after he skidded on the ground.

Ryu: OOOOOOOOOOW!!!

Shojo: Ughhh... Did anyone catch the number of that tank moving at Mach 1000?

Ryu: Ahhhhhh... A tank would've been more forgiving. Wait a minute, does something feel different to you?

Shojo: Yeah. It's like there aren't any pitch black strings attached to your brain.

Ryu: Hold on, THAT MEANS I'M FREE!!

Shojo: Looks like it.

Ryu: OHOHO THANK YOU AERO!! And I'm still alive! BONUS!!!

Shojo: The first thing you're gonna do is blast the scrawny Maiden and the Prideful Dragon off the face of the earth right?

Ryu: You know me well.

Back to Haven Academy!

Nora: WHAT IN THE WORLD WAS THAT?!!!

Everyone had just witnessed Aero swing the Rubber chicken at Ryu creating a powerful explosion blasting the roof off, and sending him flying for the first time since he had became evil, while also leaving a Ryu sized hole in the walls as well.

Keith: What is that thing made out of?!! No wonder he was scarred for his life!

In the midst of the chaos, Cinder Vernal and Raven has gone on the elevator to the Relic.

Aurora: Aero explain now!!!

Aero: I could but it'll only make sense if Ryu explains.

Jaune has unlocked his semblance using his Aura to multiply Weiss' for her healing.

Jaune: Is something like that even possible?!!

Ren: This makes no sense WHATSOEVER!

Hazel: What could make that hammer so powerful?

Qrow: I will never piss Ryu off again so long as he doesn't use that on me.

With Salem!

May: WHAT THE HELL?!!

Salem: 'Forget the Relics, that weapon could Destroy Ozpin, and quite possibly even me.'

With Raven Cinder and Vernal!

Raven: I need so many answers to that right now.

Cinder: I need them as well, but we need the Relic first.

Vernal: That was so confusing.

Back upstairs!

The fighting had resumed with Keith slightly less hesitant to fight after Aero put away the God Breaker, and Hazel going Berserk finding out that Oscar was Ozpin's new life.

Ruby: 'Come on Ryu your still alive so get here fast!'

Aero was about to blast Keith but everyone heard a approaching sound.

???: mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine Mine-

Ren: You all heat that too right?

Aurora: Yeah. And it's getting closer too.

Emerald: Getting closer at an alarmingly fast rate.

Aero: I know who it is.

Mercury: You do?

Ruby: Same here! You all better be praying now!

???: MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE-

Qrow: Whoever it is it sounds an awful lot like-

???: MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE!!!!!!

Through the doors came Ryu who activated the Maiden powers.

Ryu: Mine.

Keith: Good, now that your here it'll be fine.

Ruby: For us!

Ryu: You know, this is usually when the Hero swoops in to save the day.

Ryu smirked as he appeared in front of Keith and punched him so hard he threw up blood.

Ryu: I guess this really is that type of story.

Keith: Ry-U! What do you think your doing?!!

Ryu: Getting some payback that what. That right there, that cause you piss me off with that arrogant attitude. This next one is for you making Aero cry.

Ryu kicked him up in the air.

Ryu: THIS ONE IS FOR PUTTING ME UNDER SALEM'S CONTROL!!!

He rapidly punched punched him in the face quickly and strongly.

Ryu: THIS ONE IS FOR ALMOST KILLING MY TEAMMATES!!!!

He struck him with a flurry of kicks that broke all the bones in his body that weren't already crushed into powder.

Ryu: THIS ONE IS FOR ME IN GENERAL!!!!!

He stomped through Keith nearly killing him.

Ryu: AND THIS ONE IS CAUSE I'M SICK OF LOOKING AT YOUR STUPID FACE!!!!!!

He drop kicked Keith higher into the air before coming straight to the ground. Ryu created a massive Scythe. The scythe then started glowing in a burning white flame before it grew to cover the blade and then become incredibly giant.

Ryu: Scythe of Destruction-

Ryu jumped in the air about to swing the Scythe.

Ryu: Surasshu O Shōkyo Suru!!!
(Transliteration: Erasing Slash)

The attack connected leaving nothing left of Keith's body. He landed back down with Scythe bursting into pieces as he let out a big sigh.

Ryu: I've been waiting to kill one of them forever. And now the next one.

Ryu waisted no time in getting to the elevator and forcing it to go down faster in to the ground. When he got there, he saw that Cinder was about to try and steal Raven's Maiden powers, but he easily got in front of her and grabbed her Grimm arm.

Ryu: So you thought you could pull a fast one huh?

Cinder: Every single time you get in my way!!! How are you even alive?!!

Ryu: Screw you that's how.

Vernal tried attacking them both but was quickly elbowed in the stomach by Ryu, knocking her out cold.

Ryu: That's enough of that.

Raven: Ok I'm confused I thought you were both on the same side.

Ryu: I mean technically we were, but that was then that Grimm was inside of me and the Darkness still controlled me. Now I'm back in control.

Cinder: Grr!!!!

Cinder tried stabbing Ryu with her sword but he punched her barely restraining himself and froze her before sending her over the edge of the platform.

Ryu: That was for Amber. Well then Raven now that we have the figured out we can-

Raven slashed down at Ryu's arm only for her blade to break.

Ryu: Ok but why though?

Raven: Are you just not able to be hurt by anything else?!

Ryu: Raven why are you even attacking me?

She activated her Maiden powers macking him deadpan.

Raven: Because I will do anything for my tribes survival! And that Relic will help with that!!

She created a giant ice sword and tried to attack Ryu but he caught the blade with his middle and index finger.

Ryu: Why are you so hell bent on saying that you only care about survival?

Raven: Its the only thing that matters!!

She tried freezing him but it didn't work as he started walking forward. He stopped when he was right in front of her with a slightly serious look.

Ryu: Do you really believe that? If so than having that relic will be more of a target on your back than those maiden powers.

Raven: I've stared death in the face over and-

Ryu: I'll stop you right there. Try imagining someone so horrible, that they can control the Grimm, and have magic power beyond what you could know. Now imagine that person was immortal. That person is Salem. And I've had to take orders from her for a month straight. Death is nothing compared to her. Your afraid of her too. That's why your trying to go to these lengths.

Raven turned around in silence. Ryu rolled his eyes before tapping her on the shoulder.

Ryu: Raven do you need someone to talk to?

Raven: Why would I?

Ryu: Cause ya have the stress of leading a tribe, and have to live with guilt of leaving your only daughter and husband. I can tell when someone is hurting. It's usually cause I've felt pain like that too.

Raven turned around and looked at Ryu who had a look of slight sympathy.

Ryu: The way I left my friends and girlfriend, even if I was controlled, makes me a little similar to you. We can at least relate on some levels. Heck, I'm even a team leader who's kept secrets before.

Raven: It's just, all my life I've been taught that survival was the only thing that matters.

Ryu: And I can understand that. I grew up not knowing anything but victory for a while. Then someone came along and made me realize that there are still people stronger than me. But to wrap this up, you can either take the relic, which only works every 100 years and 1 question has already been asked, and let Salem come after you without anyone willing to help besides maybe me, or you could let me take it, and Salem can try as hard as she wants to get it from me.

Ryu walked up to the massive glowing wall and touched it making it start to open.

Ryu: Gonna be honest, though it would stay locked. Well?

Raven picked up Vernal and made a portal. Raven was about to go in before she stopped.

Raven: Thank you for actually being willing to talk.

Ryu: Any time.

She went through the portal before it disappeared. Ryu went in and grabbed the Relic of Knowledge.

Ryu: A lamp. Fitting for a genie.

Ryu made his way to the elevator and made his way up. When he did, he saw that the violence had subsided. He also noticed Blake was there as well.

Ryu: Good to see you Blake.

Blake: Hey.

Blake New Outfit!

Ryu: Imma give you all 5 seconds to leave before I kill you all and Salem will loose one half of her servants today instead of 4. 3.

Emerald clenched her head as hard as she could as shadows enveloped the area.

Ryu: Wait this isn't right I can see them too!

Shojo: Wait how illusions shouldn't work in you. She must be going above and beyond for this one.

From the shadows emerged a Giant Salem. Ryu breathed in as he closed his eyes.

Ryu: Mind over matter.

He reopened his eyes to see that they had escaped. He dispelled the illusion from everyone shocking them.

Ryu: Well you all now know the face of the evil we're dealing with.

Oscar???: Mr. Kaizen is right. That was Salem.

Ryu: Wait the only people that call me that is... OZPIN?!!

Ozpin: Yes.

Ryu: So you reincarnated already.

Ozpin: Yes.

Ryu: Ok then I have a question for you.

Ozpin: What is it?

Ryu: How exactly do you plan to beat Salem. She's immortal.

Qrow: She's what?!

Aurora: Did you just say immortal?!

Ryu: Wait you didn't- Oh God damnit. Ozpin? Really? Are you joking right now?

Oscar: Actually, it's me again.

Ryu: Son of A-

How will everyone react when they find out Salem is an enemy that cannot be killed? Where will our Hero's journeys lead them to next? Find out on the next chapter of RWBY: Team RAGE!
