AN: Here we go. Part 2 of the previous chapter... gods I am tired. Working too long and answering questions from friends as well as playing with them... exhaustion seems to be setting in. Hope you people enjoy though! Also there will be modifications done for the previous chapters as well... when I get around to them... that will be next month's seventh update hopefully... it will be done by November 7th at most though however! XD

Above a town with with a large pallisade in place, the bullheads roared down, landing with the students disembarking, while most of the students were in some awe at the number of people in the town, Teams GRAE and PYRO, along with Yang, Ruby, and Jaune, were still at ease, seeing how many people lived together with giants and faunas, due to their upbringing.

The giants, though numbering only in the tens, were still massive, and seemed to be on alert for a grimm attack. It was decreed by their queen, Diane, that all giants must assist other races in the defense of their homes as if they were their own, in hopes of bringing giants to understand the smaller races and temper the giants lust for battle. A giant approached the group, unnerving a great deal of people, before Hevy approached him with a smile, saying "Hail, Ajaxino! I was not aware my old comrade in Britannia would be here!" to which the giant laughed rather loudly and replied "Metalshell! My friend, it is good to see you! The Iron Clan Knights are never the same without you my friend." and kneeled to get a look at everyone.

"Hmm. These are the students you spoke of? They seem barely old enough to enlist. Har har har!" he laughed, at which Weiss would have told him off if not for his size. Surprisingly Obsydia then asked with a smile "Ajaxino, the Iron Giant. My dad told me you always laughed and jest a lot. If I recall, he said you were also easy to read, like a book." which caused the giant to stop laughing and look at Obsydia with a scowl, as if looking at something distasteful.

Before he could reply however, a fairy boy floated down on a rather large pillow, saying bored "Enough Ajax. She is merely quoting her father, though it isn't a unfair assessment of you still." as Escanor approached him, while Yang, Ruby, Amy, Runea, and Jaune brightened at his appearance. "Lazy as ever I see Harlequin? Well since it seems introductions are out of the way, we shall be dividing into five groups. A teacher will be with you but only get involved if a situation becomes unsafe for you all. Now, Team RWBY, you will be with Derieri on hunting Grimm in the West. Team PYRO will be with Ajaxino in the south locating White Fang extremists. Team JNPR, will stay in town to locate White Fang Extremists within the town with Harlequin. Team CRDL, you will hunt Grimm in the Northeast of here with Hevy. I will be with Team GRAE hunting down grimm in the south west." Escanor explained in total assurance.

"Always serious like an... never mind. Come on girls. Let's get going." Derieri said in annoyance, leading Team RWBY west as everyone broke up to hunt down Grimm and the White Fang. Though lurking at the town's edge a being watched, saying in a raspy voice as it watched them "Still you sleep... how troubling my lord. What will it take to awaken you, to see you bring your vision to these mortals." before vanishing into the shadows.

Several hours later, everyone was into their hunts, with JNPR and PYRO having rounded up all the White Fang nearby and in the town. Weiss was wary of Derieri, as not only is she a demon, but also was a former Ten Commandment. However, when she accidentally let her guard down during their hunt with a Death Stalker, Derieri intervened by ripping off the stinger of the creature, saying with a angry glare "Don't you dare try to harm my students. I'll tear you apart if you even try." before punching the creature several times before it was sent flying dead.

As they were wrapping up another grimm pack, Ruby stopped and turned to the mountain that was near the town. "What's wrong, miss Rose?" Derieri asked, noticing how Ruby was distracted, as the rest of the girls looked to Ruby. "Some lady... is crying. From the mountain. She keeps repeating over and over... end me." Ruby said, obviously saddened at what she was hearing. However, Blake and Weiss looked at Ruby worried she was exhausted, as Yang said "Ruby, no one is saying anything... it's in your head I think." and put her hand on her shoulder, though Ruby turned about, with a determined look, saying "I am not imagining it Yang. Girls, I hear someone over there! We need to see if they need help!" but Derieri then said something surprising to all of them.

"Go and investigate. If there is someone there, help them... though be wary of a ambush. Escanor and Team GRAE are over there, so you should meet up with them. If you don't find anyone, Ruby, you head back to town. After all, our section is cleared, and I plan on heading back." she said, almost bored, and turned to head back to town. Team RWBY, then proceeded to the mountain.

Upon arriving, they saw a waterfall with Team GRAE standing there as well. Escanor was nowhere to be seen though. "Where is Professor Escanor?" Blake asked, confused as to why they were not with him. "He went up the cliff towards that old fort there." Runea explained and pointed a thumb behind up at. As RWBY looked up, they saw indeed there was a fort, though it was well blended into the rocks. However, it also gave off a bad vibe to them. "We followed Amy and Glyff here, because Amy imagined someone was crying." Ethan teased and stiffled a laugh before being smacked in the arm by Runea, as Amy turned around, and said "I did not imagine it! She was crying for someone to end her!" which took Weiss, Blake, and Yang by surprise.

"Wait, Amy heard the same thing as Ruby as well?" Weiss asked, which caused Runea and Ethan to look at her in shock, then at both Ruby and Amy who were approaching the water with Glyff. "It's coming from there." Ruby said, pointing to where the waterfall split beneath a protruding rock. "But it's a wall." Yang said, still kinda finding it weird that both girls heard the same thing. Glyff however, approached and raised and arm, with everyone looking confused at him before the ground rumbled and the cliff that Ruby and Amy pointed at, lowered forward like a draw bridge before then extending towards them, creating a bridge to the cave left in it's place.

"What the heck Glyff? Did you know about this place?!" Weiss asked rather annoyed before noticing how Glyff shook his head while grabbing it, growling and snarling as Ruby translated it "He says he doesn't recall this place... but it feels familiar." though before anyone could ask for clarification, they heard the sounds of a woman crying as well. Everyone rushed in to find a dark room, but with a shimmering pool around them as well, with a light shining down on a stone dias, with a altar on it as well. On the altar, was a beautiful woman's head with a bright brown hair.

"You... you are not the Dead King... please... end me." she begged, tears streaming from her eyes as she looked upon them all. "Who... who are you?" Amy asked as Ruby then added "And how did you... end up here like this?" as the eight then approached the severed head. "I... I am the Angel Rameli." the head said, still distraught, continuing on "I lead... a host to fight a battle against a Master Grimm... but we were ambushed ourselves. By the Death Legion... my forces were scattered and I taken as a trophy by the Dead One. Before I pass on... I must reveal the identities of the Legion's leaders... they hide now, but will return when their leader rises." before her eyes then glowed with a bright blue light, engulfing them all.

When they were no longer blinded, they saw a large circular room, with many cloaked beings, as they stood in the center of them. "Wha-What is this? Where are we? Who are you all?!" Weiss shouted but was ignored, annoying her further. Blake counted and noted how there was eighteen of them... though they made no moves to attack them. "Well our lord seems to be taking his sweet time." a man said, removing his hood to reveal a wolf faunas with a glowing black eye, with a stubbles on his neck and chin, as well as dark black hair, with the man next too him, taking off his hood as well, revealing a man with red eyes, white hair, and dark brown skin. "He arrives when he so chooses, Fredrik." a woman with blonde hair, pale skin, with purple eyes as well as a sizable bust, said. "Still I wish he would show up to his meetings on time, Sera." another man sighed, revealing them to be a skeleton in all. "Are you questioning our lord, Skrul? Maybe you should be punished for that heresy." a man said with a raspy voice, revealing that he was a angel as well, standing next to a fairy with golden hair and a black and red eyes. A pair of giants watched the entire thing from above, as a woman added "I feel that is extreme Malstor. After all, our lord is not picky on what we think of him." and pulled her hood down, appearing as a exact copy of Pyrrha but her left eye, was a black orb instead.

"Pyrrha? What is going on?!" Ethan asked confused, as the Angel Malstor hefted a large sword as if to combat Pyrrha, but stops as the doors to the chamber are opened. Everyone, except Glyff, Ruby, and Amy shuddered as they felt a dark sinister presence from beyond the shadows, with the shadows growing as they entered. Soon a being walked in, covered in bones as armor, wielding a bone scythe with a axe head on the opposite side, with bone wings extending from his back. "Enough my children.~ Cease this childish game of upsetting on another. We have much work to be done. Reports arrive of the mortal races planning to attack the bastion of my dear sisters~. I have dispatched the sixth Death Corps to there. My death wolves, you will head there to assist. Afterwards, have some fun there while decide what you shall do next. Malstor, my Angel of Death, I wish there was a better field for you to fight on, but alas, I require you to still guard our bastion in case something... unexpected happens. It must be such a bore staying to guard this place for you." the being said, making almost everyone feel close to death itself.

"Not at all my lord. The least I can do, for making me truly the Death Angel, I will gladly do anything you ask of me." Malstor replied, though coughed a bit from his overzealous behavior. The being smiled, and replied "Truly. Soon a Death Corps will be on every land. Lady Nikos, head to Mistrel and fortify there. Consider it a vaction for yourself as well. The fifth Death Corps will remain there with you. Titania, Divel, Kaine, and Zen. Head to Britannia. Everyone else... we will join the eighth and ninth Death Corps... soon the cataclysm war will end with this battle... and when that happens, the Legion must be ready to snatch the world from my dear mother and father... I will show them that I am more then worthy to own this world. More so then my eldest brother The Demon King and his Demons, and my youngest brother, Fel Grimm, and his desire for a world of constant war. Death will rule!" causing them all to cheer in excitement. Yang, enraged that this person would dare think he would win, shouted "Like hell you will!" and swung her fists into the nearest being, but merely phased through, shocking everyone as Runea added now understanding "We're in her memory. She is showing us this." before looking at the head on the pedestal as it lowered into the ground.

Everything went dark and soon light returned to show they were in the same room. "Wait. If this war ended with the Grimm winning... why is civilization still enduring?" Ruby asked, confused as it sounded like they were certain of their victory. "Maybe they lost instead?" Blake suggested, though in truth, if the entirety of this Death Legion was as diverse as the group in that memory, with something like that leading them and made it sound like there was nine beings of equal power to him, that it should have ended in the world truly swallowed by darkness. "I bestow unto you all my memories of his meetings. Please. Deliver them to the creator. He must... YOU! YOU DARE TOY WITH ME THIS WAY?! YOU FIEND!" Rameli began before shouting as if perturbed by something. However, as everyone looked to what had frightened her, they saw only Glyff, who was just as confused, pointing to himself as well. "That's just Glyff. He helped us find you. There is nothi-" Amy began but was interrupted by Rameli, shouting "FOOLS! WHEN I IMPLANTED THE MEMORIES TO HIM, IT WAS REJECTED AS IT WAS ALREADY THERE! ONLY THE BEING WHO CREATED THIS CHAMBER WOULD KNOW HOW TO ENTER! THAT BOY IS THE VESSEL FOR NONE OTHER THAN RE-" but was cut off by bursting into flames, turning into nothing more then a skull.

"Glyff what is wrong with yo-" Weiss shouted, assuming Glyff had burned her to hide his identity, but saw his back to them, crouching and growling at a being with blackened wings, standing there with his arm outstretched. "What a troubling girl. To think she would reveal all that. The lord must sleep and regain his strength. The war will end in our victory. After all, he promised us as such." the angel said, his hood flying back to reveal him as the same one in the memory. Noticing everyone readying their weapons, he grinned and bowed, adding as well "I have fought enough for today. Till we meet again children. Adieu." and flew backwards and off, as Escanor landed, tsking and turning to see everyone. "Well at least everyone is safe." Escanor said before noticing the skull and frowns, adding "I stand corrected. Mostly everyone. Come let us head back... we are done here." and shouldered Rhitta and turned to leave, with everyone following him, confused and a bit frightened by all that transpired. The day continued as normal, but no one could shake that feeling that something was extremely wrong as they returned to Beacon.
