The Truth Comes Out 2

{Blake's P.O.V}

Cannibal Woman (On Screen): "Ah, Mister Scarlett!~" I heard from one of the countless screens plastered throughout the coliseum. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you face to face!~" Her voice sent chills down my spine as Weiss and I watched as the hordes of people crowded to try and get out. "Though, I doubt you would recognize me after what you did."

She had dark tanned skin that seemed to absorb light and violet colored hair that reached down past her waist. She wore a silver Grimm-like mask that covered the top half of her face along with a skin tight leather suit that left her arms and everything below her knees bare. On her shins, elbows, and forearms she wore armor plates that had the same color of bone. Her hands were covered by thin gloves that had pointed bone like spikes on the tips of her fingers. On her chest was a vest that seemed to be made of actual bone plates that were lased together by what looked like human guts cured like one would do for animals on a frontier town with a similar skirt.

I don't know who she is, but from the way Logan's face contorted, he knew exactly who she was. And the fact that Logan held himself ready for an attack even when she was so far away made me fear her all the more. The scariest things about her though, it was that she seemed helpless. Yet I saw her as she cleaved through all the Hunters and Huntresses with her bare hands as their auras did nothing to stop her onslaught.

I felt Weiss stiffen when she started speaking, it seems that even she could feel how dangerous she was. Ruby and Yang had been pushed to the other side of the launching bay where we were and I couldn't see them. I just hope Ruby will be fine with what's on the screens, she's just too innocent at times and I rather she stay that way. But with being around Logan, I wouldn't be surprised if this was something she could handle to a degree. Yang, I know she can handle something like this, I have faith in her.

{Yang's P.O.V.}

I almost vomited when that woman began to slaughter all those Hunters and Huntresses like it didn't matter. I tried to turn Ruby away from the screen, yet she pushed me aside and I could tell she forced herself to watch. Not out of anything other then what Logan once told us. And he was right, we could die by someone's hand just like any other Grimm out there. It only turned worse when she started to eat their remains on live television. That was the last straw for Ruby, she turned and started puking into a nearby trashcan. I didn't hear what she said as I was trying to calm Ruby down.

Logan (On Screen): "... I had a feeling, you know." Me and Ruby heard once she stopped puking. "I had a feeling you were a part of them. That town. That tribe." I didn't know what town and tribe Logan was talking about, but I could hear the hate in his voice.

Cannibal Woman: "Oh! So you remember us?~" She asked, her tone may have been friendly but I could feel the fury behind her words. "I'm so flattered!~"

Logan: "I don't regret it you know. I don't regret what I did." Me and Ruby heard as Logan replied to her. "I did what I had to do, and I didn't miss a bit of sleep over it."

Cannibal Woman: "I'm not surprised, I mean, you're a heartless man." She said, yet I was confused. Why would she call Logan heartless? "I have a question for you. How many faces do you see when you close your eyes at night? Are they there even as you lay with your lover?"

Logan: "Honestly?" I watched as Logan asked and got a nod in return. "Not anymore. They've all just blended together at this point. I don't remember you, but I remember that mask." I wondered what he meant, but I realized what she meant and the meaning behind Logan's answer. She was referring to the bodies and how many Logan had piled up personally.

Cannibal Woman: "I would have never thought it possible!~" The woman shouted in joy. "You're even more ruthless then me! You care so little about life that you don't even remember those who've died by your hand! Oh, how wonderful!~" Everyone watching, watched as she clapped her hands in joy. "Me on the other hand, I remember every single one; even those who were the most delicious~."

I heard what she said and I had to process it before I gasped with Ruby beside me. Logan killed people. And from how he answered her question, it's to the point it doesn't even bother him anymore. Just how can Logan remain the same and sane after all that blood being on his hands?

{Glynda Goodwitch's P.O.V.}

I stood behind the door Logan left out of to confront the one behind this all, waiting for an opportunity to strike when she wasn't paying attention. Yet that all went out the window when she started speaking to Logan. Her questions bringing out all the horrible things he's done for the sake of Remnant. Yet from the way she was going about it, she was trying to make Logan seem like the monster. Like he was the reason she was like this. Like this was his fault entirely.

Logan: "Since I answered your question, how about you answer one of mine?" Logan asked as I saw him keep his eyes on her. "The prison in Menagerie, the man in Mistral, the three assassins that were after me, the restaurant in downtown Vale, and the one here in the coliseum; are they all your doing?" Even though Logan's voice was level when he asked her, I could feel the absolute anger he was trying to hide.

Cannibal Woman: "Do you even need to ask?" She said as I watched her hold a hand in front of her mouth that was covered in blood.

Logan: "Good..." I heard Logan say, and then I felt chills down my spine. "...Then I don't have to hold back now, do I?" Logan's voice lost all hate and anger in it, replaced by a cold fury that seemed endless.

I stepped away from the door as crimson flames circled the battlefield, blocking off any entrance or exit. Trapping Logan and that woman inside. I sighed as I made my way to the announcer's booth to hopefully take back control of the speakers. I can't do anything now that Logan blocked off any way for me to help as the barrier around the field is still active. And with the doors blocked, I can't help due to the flames destroying anything coming through, even aura and semblances.

Glynda: 'He wouldn't due that unless he saw something that made him change the plan.' I thought as I made my way through the maze like hallways of the coliseum. 'Logan's not one to act on his emotions like that. That ring of fire is to keep others safe while he fights. Whoever or whatever that mask is, is enough to make Logan on edge and take this seriously. I just hope this will be the end of it.'

When I sprinted into the announcer's booth, I immediately start by opening the panel to the speaker system to see if I can jury-rig the system to get control over it. Wire after wire, splice after splice, I did all that I could to get control over the speakers. As I worked, I could hear Logan and that woman fight. Their clashes loud enough to be heard inside the sound dampened booth. Suddenly, the speakers came to life as I connected one final wire. as I tapped on the microphone to test it, I could hear the taps echos throughout the coliseum. But, when I looked up from my work, I felt my heart drop and my breathing hitch.

I... I saw... Logan's arm flying away from his body and... H-his chest being pieced by that woman's hand.
