RWBY: Survival - Chapter 20
A screen popped up in his view as he lazily read it, his face turned serious as he stood up and took his cane, “Neo dear, come here please” He said, Neo stood beside him in wonder. He ruffled her hair earning him a pout, “Neo, I’ll be going out for some time. Please guard this place until I come back okay?”
Neo became worried, it wasn’t everyday that Roman goes away for some time, she grabbed his sleeve begging him to stay, “Look a friend of mine is in danger, I need to go and save him that’s all. easy peasy right?” Roman grinned as Neo reluctantly released him.
Roman smiled and opened a portal, he jumped through as he appeared near the crash site, “Now where are you?” He then hears growls behind him as he sighed, “Ofcourse it’s not going to be easy” He readied his cane as he calmly watched the group of Grimm incircle him.

‘Ooohh that’s six levels worth of EXP’ He thought, he shifted his attention back to the Grimm as he smiled, “I’m not that great of a dancer but will you do me the honors and dance with me?” He rushes to the Grimm as they clashed.
On the other side of where Roman is Summer had just awoken with her tattered clothing and injured arm, she stood up and looked around panicked, “Sapphire!?” She was about to leave when she was hit in the stomach and was sent flying hitting a tree, Her body sliding down as she looked at her ȧssailant.
It’s legs were also shorter than the front and it’s head’s bone armour only protecting the forehead, ‘Decapitation of the head seems easy enough, but, I still don’t know of it’s prowess plus it hit me quite hard so this might be a bit difficult’ She thought, her body wasn’t in good shape and she rather not fight the Grimm until she recovers. She changed her dust round to fire as it spreads quickly to the surrounding, as if sensing danger from the ice it backed away.
She then changed her dust round again to wind as the fog and her figure disappear, The Grimm seeing that Summer escaping quickly rushed into the fog into it’s last location and swiped to Summer’s location.
It expected for the human her creator ordered for it to kill to die from it’s attack but it felt nothing, confused it looked at human’s location to find it gone, enraged it let out an angered howl as it speeds into the fog again to find the human.
Just three trees away from where the Grimm’s location was Summer who hid behind the tree, she looked at it with an expressionless face until it was gone that was then her eyes regained it’s light.
She knew fear was one of the things that the Grimm could sense so she dulled her emotions a bit, she let of a sigh of relief as she sat down with her back leaning on the tree, “After this I’m demanding Ozpin to give me break, I hope Sapphire remembers how to dull his emotions he might need it like I did” She opened her pouch and ate the cookies inside.
It had been an hour since Sapphire asked Violet to send Roman the message and their situation wasn’t looking too good, Sapphire and his copies had been surrounded by Grimm and half of them were already dispelled while the other half were still fighting with all of their might.
Sapphire’s Aura us very low now and he knew that one hit from the Grimm will most likely kill him, “Guys cover me” He yelled, knowing what the original was planning Fou fired a wind dust round tot he Grimm pushing some of the younger Grimm away while Liye shot a fire dust round to the ground infront of Sapphire making a smoke screen, right after that the rest of his clones were cut down by the older Grimm disappearing from the place.
The Grimm jumped into the fog much like what happened to Summer, Sapphire quickly fled the area and controlled his emotion like how he was trained. He ran through the snowy forest and came to a halt as he proned on the ground, very load footsteps pass by him as he heard a growl from whatever it was behind him.
He stayed still as he forcefully calmed his breathing making it softer and quieter, ‘Don’t think negatively, don’t fear, keep calm’ sensing no one in it’s vision the beast walked away not seeing Sapphire on the ground as soon as the beast disappear Sapphire exhaled his stiffled breath, ‘What was that?! Doesn’t matter got to find mom’ He thought as he got up and ran to the crash site.
