Orchid: yes exactly so be on your gaurd guys.

- crim and his team took the lead in fight leading team cppr into the forest soon the forest was being blown apart from there fight. As members of tram cppr were flung from the arena leaving team cobe the winner, jnpr manages to win there fight as well as team Cinder they were mysterious and crim didn't trust them.

Ruby: her sister I wanna meet her *takes off behind weiss* good luck on your fight guys.

- cinders team was facing off against cfvy as crim was watching cinders team carefully, the silver hair guy was mercury and a green hair girl was emerald they fought against coco and daichi but somehow coco and daichi lost to team Cinder due to them using illusions to trick coco and daichi to strike one another making them leave the arena. Weiss was spending with her sister Winter Schnee, even qrow had arrived and after a metting with Ozpen and ironwood and winter, he went to spend time with his neices yang and ruby. The next day team penny defeated team CRDL ruby was so proud of her friend on winning her fight, yang and Weiss were up next to fight members of team FNKI a man dressed as a musician with his weapon a trumpet, and a girl with red and blue hair who was also a cat fanus, flint and neon they were giving team rwby a really tough time nit letting yang and Weiss get ahead soon Weiss was losing to flint until she tried to take her and him out together but flint managed to keep his aura from depleting. Leaving yang against both neon and flint they passed her off so bad yang took them both out with a double explosion from her gauntlets.Crim cheered for his friends victory while sitting with jaune and sun's team.

Sun: remind me to never make yang angry.

Jaune: no kidding she's scary.

Crim*looking at yang with a smile* she's amazing huh*slightly blush*

Nora: oh I see *grins giggling* someone has a crush huh.

Crim*blushed* I ahh well it's umm*shakes head* yeah I guess so.

Neptune: she is a wild woman I give her that.

Sun: and cute *smiles*

Pyrrha: I wonder who will fight her in the finals.

Jaune: will pyrrha you will be going for our team.

Pyrrha: if you think I can do it then I shall accept.

Sun: so I'll be going in for our team what about your team Crim.

Crim: I'll be going into the finals for my team so don't hold back if I go against either one of you guys okay *smiles*

Pyrrha: it will be an honor to fight against those I call my friends.

- Ozpen arrives asking pyrrha to come with him go his office he had something important to talk about. Ozpen had taken pyrrha to his office to discuss about her becoming the summer maiden she had thought they were only myths and legends. They had chosen her due to pyrrhas skill and determination but she was hesitant and soon qrow,Ironwood,Glynda shown up telling her they need her to become the summer maiden because the current one had been attacked and is barely staying alive she must transfer it to pyrrha but she had until the festival is over to decide. Once pyrrha had joined the other's for the final rounds of the festival, each contestant would be randomly selected against there opponents. First match crim.vs mercury, second match pyrrha vs penny then third match yang vs lilly from team LOTA and sun vs Shane from team SHDW.

Crim*looked at mercury* fight well *offers a handshake only for show due he doesn't trust him*

Mercury: same to you but I'll be the one winning *shakes his hand*

Yang*places her hand on crims shoulder* I don't trust him either be on your gaurd okay crim.

Crim: I will yang I promise *patting her shoulder as well* you better win your match I wanna chance to fight you yang*smiling*

Yang*rubbed crims chin* don't worry you'll get a chance with me someday *winks*

Crim*blushes a little* yang haha not here.

- soon all the competitors were ready to fight as crim and mercury stayed in the arena ready to fight one another. But Crim was unaware of what mercury was really up to with his team so crim was being very cautious. Even Mercury's leader cinder had caught on to crim knowing they were up to something so she had ordered mercury to make sure crim messes up and be contained.

Crim: I don't know who you are or why I get a uneasy feeling from you but I will find out*holds his sword*

Mercury: as if I'd tell you fanus *rushes in swirling his body around kicking crim*

Crim*blocking Mercury's kicks with his sword then wraps his tail around Mercury's leg tossing him across the arena* you'll have to do better then that.

Mercury: then I will *spinning around on his hands shooting off shots from his boots like bullets striking crim*try and handle this lizard.

Crim*using his semblance making his body hard like steel making Mercury's shots bounce off his body* you'll have to hit harder then that mercury *running at him with a swing of his sword smacking mercury across the arena cutting his clothes* how's that loud mouth.

Mercury*rolling across the arena floor from crims attack, getting up quickly running to crim leaping up with a spin of his body kicking crim in the face multiple times sending him flying across the arena floor* how's that lizard.

Crim*rolling across the floor almost out of the arena but he jammed his sword into the floor saving him, stands up wiping his mouth* not to shabby.

Yang*cheering from the stands* kick his butt crim toss him from the ring.

Mercury: it seems you have a cheerleader*licks his lips* maybe I'll take advantage and make her mine what do you say.

Crim: as if she would go with you.

Mercury: once she sees how good I can be and I don't mean in the arena I mean under the sheets then your sexy bimbo girlfriend will only want me *grins*

Crim: you better shut up or I'll make you*grits his teeth*

Mercury: why would she want to be with a filthy fanus like you lizard she needs a real man *doing air thrusts* I'll show her the best time of her life once I kick your ass now won't we stupid lizard.

Crim*eyes slowly glowing red* you better take that back now I am not a filthy fanus*gripping his sword tight* I won't let you lay a hand on yang.

Mercury: will see now won't we lizard*running around crim kicking him all over, jumps on his hands shooting from his boots making a twister of shots striking crim from all angles*

Crim*taking the hits from mercury as his semblance dragons skin helps block and bounce the shots from his body, his rage builds being hit and taunted by mercury*

Mercury*keeps on striking crim over and over not giving himany room to move or counter* maybe I'll just kill your blonde bimbo and her little sister *leaps at crim with his legs as his feet strike crim at high speed with multiple attacks*

Crim*he can feel his anger rising being repeatedly kicked and shot at hearing mercury threating to kill yang and ruby, he finally snaps stabbing his sword into the arena floor then grabs Mercury's leg smacking him around the floor as he roard out*

Mercury*unable to break free from crims grip he is forced to take the beating, trying to kick himself away but then gets a secret call from Cinder telling him to let crim break his legs then crim would get disqualified and be detained* dammit.

- Yang, sun,penny, pyrrha, lilly and Shane watched in surprised how crim is acting, yang tried to run in to stop him but sun stopped her knowing it wasn't safe, ruby, Weiss, Blake and crims team, jnpr watching crim beat mercury like a beast but ruby knew something had happened to crim she knew he wouldn't act like this. Unknowingly to everyone except to mercury and Cinder, Emerald they had put a special dust in Mercury's ammunition called ghost dust, it drives fanus crazy with rage and uncontrollable like a grimm. Ironwood watched and knew he had to step in before crim kills mercury.

Crim*being shot with so much ghost dust making him lose his mind to pure rage, plus from Mercury's taunting it made it worse, crim smacking mercury from side to side like a hammer* you'll pay for what you said.

Ironwood*rushing in but was too late* crim don't do it.

Crim*smacking mercury into the floor then clinched his fists unable to control his anger, punching Mercury's legs breaking them not knowing his legs were prosestic legs*

Mercury*makes a fake scream in pain to put the icing on the cake for his performance* my legs!!!

Crim*looking around seeing the faces of everyone in the audience and his friends, they were horrified he then looked at his hands and mercury* what have I done*hands trembling* no...no this can't be happening.

Ironwood: stand down crim or else now!!*arresting crim taking him away into custody* for trying to kill a student you are under arrest.

Crim*accepts Ironwoods decision and goes quietly, hearing some of the audience booing and calling him a filthy fanus*

Ironwood: medical team take care of mercury please.

Cinder: don't worry will take him there*grins at crim while no one else was looking while helping mercury up*

Emerald*whispering to mercury* great job for once*helps him up with cinder*

Mercury*acting like he's in pain but grins at crim* oh my legs the pain ahhh!!*faking it*

- crim wanting to punch mercury but now wasn't the best time, he is taken to his dorm room where is friends were waiting, they wanted to know what had happened but ruby knew there was something wrong. Ironwood had let crim talk to his friends as Ozpen walked in wanting to see crim.

Ruby: crim are you okay.

Crim: no I'm not I don't know what came over me it's like I lost control.

Yang: it didn't happen until that guy used that kicking twister and it's like he cast a spell or something.

Banan: yeah you wouldn't go that far like that.

Nora: crim it's like you were going berserk.

Emeric: what set you off.

Crim: he said he was going to kill ruby and yang once he was done with me or he was going to do things to them.

Blake: but still that wouldn't make you act like that.

Crim: I do remember smelling something odd when he used that kicking twister.

Orchid: what kind of smell was it like a drug or dust.

Ozpen: it was ghost dust a special dust that was used to attract grimm and make them wild and it seems they have modified it to affect crim. But for what purpose.

Weiss: ghost dust but how'd they get it, it's banned in all four kingdoms and very rare to get.

Ozpen: this dust can be made but it seems a higher power had there own supply.

Ironwood: then my suspension is correct there is something uo with those three I will keep an eye on them but crim it's best to lay low for now because the whole world saw it .

Crim: okay I'll stay here in the dorm for now but what if they will do something bigger then this.

Yang: don't worry will stop them if they do.

Ironwood: don't worry crim we will get to the bottom of this so rest for now.

Yang*hugged crim* we know it wasn't your fault okay don't think too much about it.

Crim: but now people will think I'm like the white fang and roman*hugged yang*

Ruby/blake/weiss/team cobe*hugged crim too in a group hug making sure that he knows they are on his side*

- outside the city the horde of grimm gather in huge numbers for some mysterious reason, as crim was confined to his quarters his team tried cheering him up but he wanted to be alone. He looked out his window seeing jaune,pyrrha, Nora and ren they were goofing off having fun pyrrha saw crim in his window she waved as he waved back team jnpr was concerned about him but gave him space. A few hours had past and he saw pyrrha sitting with jaune sitting together until it seemed like something happen and she ran off. Crim wondered what had happened later that evening ruby had saw Emerald in the audience she had thought she left with mercury but she soon ran into mercury in a hallway behind the arena, she was confused seeing him but he attacked her to keep ruby from stopping the fight that was currently happening between pyrrha and penny, mercury revealed they had fixed the fights in their favor even one with crim. Soon it was too late all the stuff going on in oyrrhas head with the summer maiden she accidentally lost control of her semblance and torn penny apart revealing to everyone she was a robot. The horde of grim began there attack on the city and beacon along woth the white fang, roman and cinders team. Crim heard the commotion from his room grabbing his sword running off to help. Grimm pour in from everywhere crim did his best to take out a few grimm along the way.

Crim: why are all these grimm here *slicing down grimm left and right* I know those guys are the cause of this*running through the courtyard into the city he saw weiss and Blake being attacked by atlas robot soilders* guys.

Weiss: crim be careful*taking down grimm and robots*

Blake: look*she saw a ship crashing* will split up okay.

Crim: be careful out there guys and has anyone seen my team.

Weiss: no we haven't.

Crim*cutting a ursas head off kicking a beowolf into a wall before killing it* okay Blake be careful*felt the ground shaking* what's going on.

Weiss: I have no clue *killing a couple grimm* something big must be coming.

- the ground began shaking like big footsteps as all the students of beacon along with the teachers trying to defend the city and kill grimm but there numbers were too high, Blake had went off to help others until she ran into her ex boyfriend Adam he was killing hunters and huntresses until Blake interfered saving a few she then started battling against Adam. At the main battle crim was fighting grimm and robots with his friends.

Crim: there are too many they'll overrun us*jumping up on a Atlesian Paladin* you think these tin cans bother me.

Weiss: be careful crim.

Sun: that thing will tear you apart.

Crim*grabbing the paladins left arm pulling and ripping it off like it was nothing, beating the paladin with its own arm destroying it* trash can.

Sun: wow remind me to ever make you mad.

Neptune: what about the other ones.

Coco: velvet it's time.

Velvet: really* used her camera weapon it allows her to make weapons of energy from those in the pictures, she used abundance of weapons to take down all the paladins* that was fun.

Yang*killing a grimm* hey guys I'm glad your safe but has anyone seen ruby or Blake.

Weiss: Blake ran off to take down an alpha grimm and I haven't heard from ruby.

Yang: I'm going off to help Blake*heading off to blake*

Crim: I'm coming with you*running with yang*

- once Yang and crim find Blake she was laying on the floor as Adam stabbed Blake in her stomach, making yang furious with rage she charged Adam getting struck down with a swing of his sword as crim watched yang fall and seen that her right arm had been sliced off by Adam. Crim soon filled with rage his eyes glowing dark red his body turning harder then steel after using his dragons skin semblance.

Adam: oh another friend of yours Blake maybe I'll kill him too*holds his sword up*

Blake: no crim he'll kill you*holding yang*

Crim: Blake get yang away from here you both need medical attention*gripping his sword*

Yang: no crim*barely awake* crim you can't he's too strong*reaching out for crim*

Adam: ain't this cute the lovers are worried about one another.

Crim: Blake get yang away from here now.

Blake*manages to get yang away to Safety with sun and Nora and ren*

Crim: your going to pay you bastard*charging adam trying to attack him*

Adam*laughs easily dodging crims attacks slashing at his body* oh your semblance is quite unique.

Crim: no blade can harm me go on and keep trying*swung his sword Ascalon at adam striking the red sword smacking him back* you'll pay for what you did.

Adam: as if I care *leaping around slashing more and more* I'll find your weak spot.

Crim: as if I'd let you find it*his sword clashing with Adam's putting up a good fight*

Adam: if you don't hurry your other friend the red head is going to die too.

Crim: wait pyrrha*let's his gaurd down for a split second*

Adam*seeing his opportunity swinging around slashing crims left eye making it bleed* now if you'll excuse me*escapeds the minute a grimm charged in*

Crim*holding his left eye as it bleeds* dammit he ran off*remembering pyrrha* oh no pyrrha*running off to the tower he heard explosions from the top, quickly climbing up the side seeing pyrrha badly wounded by a Black hair girl in a red dress about to kill her* pyrrha!!!.

Cinder: your too late faunus it's over I already took the power of the summer maiden and now she will die.

Pyrrha: hurry crim you have to *getting shot in her leg with a glass arrow from cinder*

Crim: I wont let you kill my friend*running to pyrrha grabbing and saving her but his aura was too low from all the fighting, a glass arror piercing his back through his chest he and pyrrha slide across the floor* you okay pyrrha*coughs blood*

Pyrrha: crim why I don't want you to die for me please run.

Cinder: at least he'll die along with you*about to kill pyrrha and crim, her dragon grimm showing up roaring*

Ruby*ran up the tower seeing her friends crim and pyrrha badly wounded, crims left eye was gone* NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!*her eyes shining a bright white light enveloping everyone*

- two days had past since the fall of beacon and atlas, ruby, Yang, crim had been taken back home to patch up and rest as all three needed medical attention. Crim wakes up in a bed seeing yang laying next to him.

Crim*placing his hand on yangs* how long have we been out and how did we get home.

Yang*wakes up hearing crim* it's been two days and yes I've been by your side since then*holding crims hand* I'm sorry.

Crim: sorry for what yang I'm the one who should be sorry *holding her hand* I didn't make it in time to save you even though I promised you i would.

Yang*grips his hand* but you got hurt you lost your left eye trying to get that guy*tearing up* it's my fault I got too hot headed and it cost me my right arm and your left eye*looking up at him*

Crim*using his tail to wipe her tears away* no it's not your fault we were both reckless *smiles* but let's promise to always keep each other safe okay*pulling her into a hug* I will always have your back.

Yang*hugging Crim tightly looking at him leaning in* I promise to always have your back as well Crim*getting closer then kissing crim*

Crim*wrapped his arms around yang kissing her back cuddling her, happy that she is safe then he holds her in arms resting*

Yang*cuddling with Crim knowing he's safe and she's safe in his arms getting some rest*

- Ruby was in her room across from crim and yang sleeping while her dad and uncle watched over her, qrow was happy to see them safe and sound so was tai. As Ruby woke up they told her most what had happened but left out what she did to the grim that attacked. Crim could here there conversation as he and yang resting in bed.

Ruby*had woken up in her room confused but her dad and uncle qrow filled her in with some things had happen* what about Crim and Yang and pyrrha.

Qrow: don't worry they're all safe and alive pyrrha is home with her family and crim is resting with yang in the room there.

Ruby: so we lost beacon and the city but I don't understand why everything went white and woke up here.

Tai*patting his daughters head* don't worry okay kiddo take some time to rest I'll go make some food okay*leaves the room*

Qrow: what was the last thing you remember.

Ruby: i saw crim holding pyrrha keeping her safe then Cinder shot crim and that alpha grimm showed up and everything went white and now I'm here.

Qrow: ozpen once said you had silver eyes a rare trait to have amd it's said that those who have silver eyes can wipe out grimm with a single glance.

Ruby: so ozpen is missing too then we need to find him and take beacon back.

Qrow: we will squirt but rest for now you need to rest*gets up with a smile leaving the room*

Ruby*gets out of bed heading into crims room* hey how are you guys doing.

Crim*looking at ruby* I'm doing okay even with one eye *smiles sitting up in bed*

Yang: I'll be okay sis*sitting up alongside crim*

Ruby*starts to cry* you guys got hurt and I couldn't stop that*hugging into crim and yang*

Crim*hugging Ruby with yang* its okay ruby were all together okay will always be together.

Yang*hugging her sister and crim* we've been together since we were kids so it ain't stopping now.

Ruby*smiling with joy hugging* I love you two okay I always will.

Crim: love you too Ruby and you too yang.

Yang: I'm stuck with you guys so yes I love you both.

Ruby: what about Weiss and Blake and your team Crim.

Yang: weiss was taken back home by her father and Blake has disappeared I don't know where she is I hope she's okay.

Crim: I don't know where my team went they just vanished before the attack I hope they're safe they probably went home or something.

- the three of them hugging and enjoying there time together both yang and ruby kissed crims cheeks as a sign they love him, crim blushed then kissed there cheeks back with a smile, a couple days passed and it had been snowing leading to winter. Ruby had called Jaunes team asking to help her get her team back and go to beacon. Yang and crim wanted to go but they had to recover first so they agreed to meet up once they were healed, ruby hugged her sister and crim going off with team jnpr since pyrrha was home recovering. Crim and Yang watched ruby and team jnpr head off to beacon and now crim and yang need to recover and train for a rematch against Adam and to go save there friends and meet up with ruby.
