42 Attack on Titans

(A/N: Longest Chapter so far)

...

All of them became quiet quickly as they all thought about five Grand Alphas coming their way.

"...Guys, I need you all to continue onward… take them all out as fast as possible," Zack suddenly said as he looked in the opposite direction they were going.

"Huh, I don't get what you are saying?" Ruby curiously asked.

"!!!"

"No! You can't! Even if it's you! You just came out of a battle!" Pyrrha quickly interjected as she already deduced what her boyfriend was gonna say.

"It'll be alright! Trust on your Captain! And besides... I'll be back," Zack replied to her while smiling and giving her a thumbs up.

At this point, everyone finally understands what Zack is planning.

"H-h-hey dude! You can't actually be serious right?" Sun asked.

"D-don't tell me…" Yang commented as she looked at the serious Zack looking at them.

"I am, you all head over the frontlines and support the security as soon as possible. Take care of all of them, the longer the battle continues, the more citizens create negative energy and thus follows hordes of Grimm," Zack explained as he faced them all as it dawned on them.

"B-but! What about you!? DO YOU REALLY EXPECT US TO LEAVE BY YOURSELF AGAINST FIVE GRAND ALPHAS!!?" Blake exclaimed as she clenched her fists.

"Yes," Zack answered promptly.

"!!"

"NOW YOU LISTEN HERE!! YOU'RE MY BROTHER! MY BOYFRIEND! AND OUR LOVER! HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU EXPECT US TO LEAVE YOU IN SOMETHING THAT COULD LEAD TO YOUR DEATH!!" Yang exploded as she clenched Zack's shirt.

"Because I love you, girls, too much.." Zack said calmly with a smile.

Yang, Blake, and Pyrrha jerked at that response.

"I know you all want to come with me in kicking five Giants but we can't let this kingdom fall. That is why, as soon as you all take care of those guys down there, call for Bubba, he'll take you to me… if you are still hungry for a fight that is," Zack smirked at all of them.

Everyone couldn't help admire Zack's guts in challenging those giants all by himself and he's still calm. They all nodded in determination as they didn't have any choice, they could only fasten their upcoming battles.

Yang, Blake, and Pyrrha are still reluctant in all of this, they all can't stand the thought of Zack out of their lives. They were prepared to fight Zack with all of their might just to save him from fighting those giants as they took out their weapons.

"I know it's unfair of me to you three, but believe in your man alright! After this, I promise I'll do one thing whatever you want me to do so you gotta believe in me girls, I will be-" Zack was suddenly interrupted by Blake appearing beside him and tied him like a mummy by using her weapon's black ribbon.

In one fluid action, Yang took hold of the other end of the black ribbon and started gathering momentum by spinning then she threw him towards the direction of those said giants while untangling Blake's ribbon then Pyrrha used her improved semblance and launched him further.

"Good luck my Honey/Darling/Mate!!" Pyrrha, Yang, and Blake waved goodbye innocently while they all had a small stream of blood coming from their noses.

In their minds, Zack has never lost and they doubt he's gonna start now so their faith in him returning is already cemented on their trust in him.

'With that promise, we can finally go on a week-long date with no interruptions! Just the two of us,... alone... then at night ehehehe' Blake thought of while smiling slightly.

'With this! I can finally force him to propose to me first then at our honeymoon we could ehehehe' Yang thought of while smiling creepily.

'With this promise, *hah* *hah* *hah* I can make him do all of those things WHENEVER I WANT!! I WiLl nOt bE dEnIeD tHiS tImE!!' Pyrrha thought of darkly while laughing to herself and blushing at the same time.

Everyone suddenly took a step back from those three girls.

"Ruby right? Are they… going… to be fine?" Coco asked Ruby while pointing towards the three smiling girls waving at their boyfriend.

"...Uh… yeah, I think…" Ruby hesitantly answered while rubbing the back of her head.

"..."

Everyone just stood by and watched those three girls as team SSSN huddled over and dragged both Fox and Yatsuhashi from team CFVY, and Ren with them while the girls looked on curiously at that.

"Dude! When you guys said Zack has four girls as his lovers, I really thought you were just pranking me but looking at those three now… I kinda feel bad for him," said by the other member of team SSSN, Scarlet David, who has red hair that comes down over his right eye, with a complete undercut. There are several red markings around his left eye.

"I told you, none of his girls are normal! I think… I haven't seen his fourth one though, unlike my Snow Angel! All girls pale in comparison to my lady!" Neptune replied while preaching about Weiss.

"Hah! I don't know about you but Velvet is the best! Look at her! What part of her is not adorable!" Sun immediately argued about.

"...Please don't let Nora hear that, please," Ren commented as he sighed.

"Yeah, that's right! Just rub it in our faces! Just because you nerds have girlfriends now huh!" Scarlet said suddenly as he pointed accusingly at the four of them while bringing the other member of team SSSN, Sage Ayana, a guy with dark skin, gold eyes, and sage green hair color, and Fox of team CFVY with him.

"Huh! Why am I included? I'm not dating anyone?" Yatsuhashi commented as he raised his eyebrows curiously.

"Ha! I ain't a fool! I know that you are already in a relationship with your leader, Coco!" Scarlet replied and by now, they were no longer huddled together so everything they were saying is being heard by everyone.

"Wha!?" Yatsuhashi's mouth opened in shock.

"Yeah! You can't trick us! I know you two are already in a master-servant relationship! Ha, I see everything!" Fox readily joined in the fun as he pointed at his teammate as well.

*Gasp!*

"Wait wait! I think there's been a misunderstanding here, and Fox, knock it off, how could you see anything when you're blind..." Yatsuhashi replied calmly.

"Teehee" Fox smiled innocently.

*sniff* *sniff* "I knew it was only a one-time thing but I didn't think you would oppose it that much" Coco's voice suddenly rang out.

That got their attention as they looked at Coco who was crying while covering her face with her hands but what they didn't notice, except Yatsuhashi that is, was that she was currently smiling smugly under her hands right now.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Yatsuhashi in contempt while his eye twitched in annoyance as he thought that they should be preparing for a fight but instead this.

…

"Gramps, quickly talk to me! What are those Grand Alphas?" Zack called it in immediately after he was thrown off by his girlfriends and quickly summoned one of his manticores then flew off towards those giants.

"...Zack, I know that you are an exceptional huntsman but taking five of those things is suicide even for you, pull everyone back immediately now! That's an order! Vale has been compromised already because of those Grimms …" Ozpin ordered in authority.

"Heh, the rest of my group are already assisting in the frontlines, as long as I can take those five giant Grimms, Vale can see another day. C'mon Gramps! You know I wouldn't give up that easily hehe!" Zack smiled a little even in the face of a crisis.

"Now, believe in me Old man! tell me about the exact locations and description of these Giants! And hurry it up! I'd like to avoid panic even further than it already is…" Zack said seriously while taking out all of his swords and combining them into his fully formed Fusion Sword.

*Sigh* "Alright… just make sure you return back alive, *mumble* nobody would like to see a Glynda even more strict as she is *mumble*" Ozpin mumbled lowly while looking at the panicking citizens coming into the school with Glynda using her natural strictness in calming everyone.

*cough* *cough* "The first is about a few miles away and expected to arrive here in the next half hour. It's a Teryx, a raptor-like dinosaur with pterosaur wings, and as expected it's a Grand Alpha, its size could easily double the size of our standard Bullhead." Ozpin said as he is looking at a raptor-like Grimm with wings flying straight for Vale on his screen.

"Damn… that's a real b*tch in the air. And the other four?" Zack complained while motioning his manticore to go faster.

"Right, following it by air is a Sphinx, a large and slender Grimm with feline bodies and large feathered wings that look like a larger version of your manticores, and its size is almost as big as that Teryx. The next one is a Sea Feilong, an enormous serpentine body with large red wings, short arms with claws, a bone-scaled underbelly, and a spiked spine, its size is… as long 200 meters at least. We also detected that one Giant Goliath has appeared at Mt. Glenn and its leading fellow Goliath, albeit smaller, towards here as we speak and ETA 60 mins," Ozpin list out the three terrifying titans that are heading their way.

"...Sh*t… that's one hell of a line-up you got there, and the last one?" Zack asked.

"It's a Leviathan… a gigantic, bipedal, aquatic sea Grimm with four humanoid limbs and a long tail. On the bright side, this thing is way behind than the rest but, it is still heading in this direction," Ozpin stated seriously.

"...And that's the cherry on top, a freaking Leviathan… Gramps, I know you already noticed this but this entire situation is probably caused by your ex-wife," Zack commented as he finally got out of Vale.

"Yes, I know… five Grand Alphas at the same time, she's the only one I could imagine who could do this but I can't help but be curious. If her goal is the destruction of Vale, why would she deploy them so far away… it isn't her style that's all," Ozpin said as he thought of his crazy ex.

*Sigh* "Gramps, you and your ex should really take up relationship counseling hehe" Zack joked while he dismissed his manticore and finally summoned Smaug for a faster flight.

*ROOOAAAAAARRRRRR!!!*

"Well Gramps, take care of everyone there, don't worry about the Goliath or any lesser Grimm for the matter, Fang is taking charge over the rest of my minions, and remember, B7 and B8 are always there if you need any more help. I'll call you back after taking care of these giants alright, good luck," Zack said as he could finally see a giant raptor-like Grimm with wings heading straight at him.

"Mmm, good luck, and remember, retreat immediately if you are being overwhelmed," Ozpin said seriously and cut the call as he faintly hears the roar of the Teryx getting louder in the background.

Zack grinned excitedly as he motioned Smaug to go faster at the approaching Teryx but what he didn't notice was a Bullhead has been following him ever since he got out of Vale.

"Hehehe predictable! That jackass really went for it by himself! I may not kill your ladies now but I have the next best thing! Hahahaha!" Tyrian laughed maniacally while he held a detonator of some sort.

*Sigh* "I would've liked to cause chaos more on Vale but if we did that, our target wouldn't be alone now. Just what is her Majesty thinking?" Hazel said to himself as they were both inside the Bullhead following Zack while on the side was Cinder's unconscious body.

"I know what you mean but any more than taking Cinder away would've alerted more people and besides, I was right, because of Roman's little assistant, we took her without anyone knowing about it but it's a shame she didn't want to join us," Arthur said from the screen.

"Hmph, it's just one little girl, no need to think any more than that. Now we only need to wait for our target to wear himself out then we can take him as well," Hazel said as he crossed his arms over his chest while looking ahead towards Zack, who was about to engage the Teryx.

'But why do I still have a bad feeling about this whole thing' Hazel thought as he narrowed his eyes at their target.

Back at Zack.

"C'mon Smaug! Let's show these ass clowns who's the real king in the sky!!" Zack yelled out as he readied his Fusion at his side.

*RRRROOOOOAAAAAARRRR!!!*

*ROOOaaaaarrrrr!!!*

The Teryx and Smaug roared each other as they were closing in on each other.

The Teryx swayed to the side first then brought out its right claw aiming at Zack.

Zack quickly spun his blade once to cover it in his aura and slashed it as a counter.

*BAMMM!*

Their attack forced both of them to back off while he motioned Smaug to attack. Smaug flew towards it and opened its gigantic mouth and bit the Teryx at its left arm. In one swift motion, Smaug crushed it as it flew by at the injured Grimm.

"ROOOOOaaaaarrrr!!"

The Teryx roared in agony as it struggled to stabilize itself in the air.

Smaug quickly circled around to attack again but this time The Teryx was ready, it immediately rotated its body and whipped its spiky tail at Smaug's head.

*Bam!*

Zack blocked it with his Fusion Sword but Smaug took the full frontal of it as it was dazed for a few moments. As Smaug stabilized its balance, Zack could faintly hear another roar coming closer and at that moment he knew he shouldn't waste any more time and quickly ordered Smaug.

"Smaug, call in a few more helpers! I'll cut this thing's head off once and for all!!" Zack yelled out as he jumped off Smaug.

Smaug quickly used its ability to produce lesser Grimms specifically Nevermores as Zack hitched a ride on one of those things and circled around at the Teryx then flew up high as fast it could.

"RRRooooaaaarrrr!"

The Teryx charged again as it noticed that the longer its opponent stayed idle, the more lesser Grimms were being created and it also saw that none of these Grimms were obeying its command. It opened its mouth to bite Smaug but as it was about to take Smaug's head off, a blur dropped down swiftly and beheaded the Teryx in one motion.

Smaug quickly caught Zack on its back as it ordered it's lesser Grimms to follow them.

"Wooo, what a rush! Now, on the next one!" Zack grinned as he stood at Smaug's head.

*ROOOAAAAARRRR!!*

Smaug let out a huge roar as it flew faster at the approaching but before that Zack's attention went towards the Teryx falling body.

At that thought, Zack grinned then yelled out for Smaug "Smaug! Get me close to that dead Teryx! We may need some help after all" Zack said as he prepares to jump over.

"Rooaarr"

Smaug went close enough for Zack to jump over the still falling body.

As soon as he touched the body, he flared out his aura and yelled out.

"AWAKEN!!!"

...

Back at Vale.

Everyone couldn't help but marvel at team RWBY and team PNR battle proficiency and team coordination. They all started advancing at the same time but both teams just bulldozed everything on their path which greatly reduced White Fang's morale and increased everyone else's.

After a few more minutes, Adam Taurus, the leader of the White Fang, finally noticed this and immediately went their way but what everyone didn't know was there's a scary greenish-blue Grimm making its way towards them along with an army of fellow same color Grimms.

Everyone who saw this was scared at first but when they just bypassed them or even some of them helped one of them in their fights, they all realized that these Grimms are on their side which greatly boosted their morale.

Those who were helped by them actually went along with them in marching towards the frontlines. Zack's minions, who saw this, actually let them ride on their backs as they ran faster in four. At that gesture, more able-bodied huntsmen joined in as well, as a result, they all defeated White Fang members quickly while the leader of the pack wasn't slowing down at all.

At team RWBY and team PNR side.

"Wooo! Oh, yeah!! And that's the last of them! We kick serious butt guys!" Ruby exclaimed as her opponent was finally knocked out.

"Hmph, as expected now, let's go! That moron still needs our help," Weiss said while she looked at everyone.

"Mmm, let's go! Bubba!!" Ruby nodded as well as everyone and called out Bubba loudly as they saw it coming their way.

But as Bubba was coming closer, it suddenly moved to its side and dodged a blade beam.

Everyone looked at the direction it came from as they heard one walking towards them.

"What's the rush? Leaving already, Blake?" Adam's voice rang out as Blake's eyes widened as she instantly recognized it.

Adam finally reached them before they could escape with his Wilt and Blush, Adam's weapons Wilt is a red sword and Blush is a rifle that also functions as a scabbard, at hand.

"It's been awhile Blake, why so quiet? Cat got your tongue hahaha don't worry, I'll cut it off for you!! Right after I kill everyone here, starting with that Schnee!!!" Adam yelled out as he didn't wait for your reply and charged in straight for Weiss.

They were shocked at Adam's declaration and before they could react, he was already an arm's length away from Weiss. They were all about to engage him but before they could take one step, an arm was suddenly amputated and thrown in the air at the same time Adam passed by Weiss facing his back towards them.

They all looked worried for Weiss but they saw her fine while the girl in question widened her eyes in surprise and slowly looked at herself with no injuries.

*Thud*

Everybody instinctively sighed in relief for that but their attention quickly went to the arm that was on the ground holding a red sword and standing over that severed arm was Fang looking at Adam's direction in contempt.

*Kurk!*

"Ahhhh…"

Adam immediately hunched over in pain over his lost limb but tried to contain his scream.

/FOOLISH HUMAN, DID YOU REALLY THINK SOMETHING AS THE WHITE FANG COULD TAKE DOWN VALE WHILE MY LIEGE IS IN THIS KINGDOM/ Fang mocked Adam while stepping down and crushing the severed arm over its feet.

Everyone else just stepped away as they all looked warily at Fang. Truth be told, out of Zack's minions, Fang was somewhat scariest out of all of them(they haven't seen Smaug yet), and knowing that this one could speak freely and evolved from a Grand Alpha was a scary thought.

/MY LIEGE'S COMPANIONS… GO! YOUR NO LONGER NEED IN HERE, A HORDE OF GRIMM IS COMING FROM MT. GLENN, YOU ARE ALL NEEDED IN THERE… BUBBA TAKE THEM/ Fang said as it came forward towards Adam who was forcing himself to stand up and stay conscious.

Everybody nodded at Fang as they looked over Adam in pity as they all knew that Fang is also the most brutal of Zack's minions. As they all get on Bubba, Blake couldn't help but yell out to Fang.

"P-please d-don't kill him!... Even though I very much like to kill him for what he was about to do to Weiss, we need him more alive than dead!" Blake said courageously even though they were all scared by Fang just looking at them.

After a few more moments, Fang finally nodded at their direction and continued walking to Adam.

/I WOULD COMMEND YOUR BRAVERY HUMAN BUT IF YOU WEREN'T ONE OF MY LIEGE'S MATE, I WOULD'VE CUT OUT YOUR TONGUE. NOW GO HUMANS AND A PIECE OF REMINDER TO ALL OF YOU ESPECIALLY MY LIEGE'S MATES, DON'T LET YOURSELVES GET HARMED AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, MY LIEGE WON'T LIKE IT AT THE LEAST/ Fang gravely said as it stood over Adam.

"Uh… yeah, c'mon Bubba! Let's go to Mt. Glenn then back at Zack!" Ruby hesitantly said to Fang then called Bubba.

At that, they flew off leaving behind Adam with Fang.

/ALTHOUGH I AGREED THAT YOU WOULD LIVE, THEY DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT YOU HAVING ANY ARM LEFT OR THAT YOU WILL BE BEATEN HALF TO DEATH, NOW DID THEY/ Fang grinned maliciously as its hand quickly made way towards Adam's throat and lifted him like a doll.

...

Back at Zack.

*Rooooaaaaarrrr!!*

*ROOOOAAAAAARRRR!!!*

The Sphinx and Smaug clashed in the sky as they both aggressively forced their fangs on each other, desperately trying to rip each other apart. Smaug ordered many of its Nevermores to attack the Sphinx in all directions to distract it and injure it in any way possible.

As their fight progressed, more and more injuries were being given to the Sphinx while Smaug just brushed off any damages it took. Naturally, the Sphinx noticed this and quickly separated away from Smaug but as soon as it flew away, it was attacked from above and was being dragged to the sea below.

The Sphinx grew panicked at this as it forcefully looked back at that attacker but the last thing it saw was greenish-blue Teryx on its back while Zack charged and was about to swing his glowing Fusion Sword at its neck.

*Woooossh!*

*SPLASH!*

*SPLAASSHHH!!*

*ROOOAAAARRR!!*

*ROOAAAAAARRRRRR!!*

The greenish-blue Teryx threw the headless carcass below at the same time Zack sliced off its head and quickly pulled up to Smaug's altitude then they both roared in victory.

"Hehehe That's some aerial battle huh, oh well, two to go," Zack said as he took a seat at Rex's back (the summoned Teryx) and relaxed his nerves for a moment or two.

Every time one of his summon is injured, it takes a bit of Zack's Aura to heal it instantly, and adding to that battle with Penny as well awakening his new summon Rex. At this time Zack's Aura is already on the yellow nearing red fortunately, his next fight is in half-hour away so he could rest for a bit.

Unfortunately, he didn't consider the speed of that giant Sea Feilong as soon as he took a breather, yellow bolts of lightning quickly made their way towards him.

*ROOOOOOAAAAAARRRRR!!!*

Zack and his summons were caught by surprise as it hit him and Rex, blasting them away luckily he was caught by one of Smaug's Nevermore before hitting the sea.

*SPASHHH!!!*

Rex flew straight down as Zack was forced to recede Rex back to his shadow and weakly stood back up then looked up above at the giant Sea Feilong looking down at them in contempt.

/HUMAN… AND GRIMM… TOGETHER IS AN INSULT… AND YOU ALL WILL HAVE TO DIE!! I WILL SHOW YOU ALL… THE MIGHT OF THE TRUE... KING OF THE SKY!!/ The Sea Feilong yelled out in condescension.

*RRROOOOOOAAAAARRRR!!!*

It let out a roar in the sky while yellow lightning came out from its mouth and lit up the clouds near it to emit lightning themselves then it looked down on them. It produced an intimidating sight to make anyone who saw this would most likely to run away immediately in fear.

Zack grew serious at this as right now, he has to conserve his aura as much as possible if he intends to take out that Leviathan that's coming their way.

"Damn… this is not gonna be easy as I thought it would be huh," Zack said to himself as he shook off that last attack and shouldered his Fusion Sword.

" I'm gonna be feel this tomorrow, I just know it *Sigh* Well, better get this done then! Let's go YOU OVERSIZED LIZARD!!" Zack yelled as he summoned a manticore again and rode it towards the Sea Feilong.

*ROOOOAAAARRRR!!*

Smaug didn't have to be ordered as it simultaneously followed after Zack while commanding its Nevermores to surround the Sea Feilong.

/FUTILE!! DIE INSECTS!!/ The Sea Feilong yelled out as it charged another thunder on its mouth and fired at Zack.

Zack immediately spins his sword several times and struck at the incoming lightning breath.

*BBOOOMM!*

*ROAAARR!!*

At the same time, the Sea Feilong attacked, both Smaug and its minions attacked as well while Zack was blasted off his manticore due to the shockwave they caused.

Smaug quickly opened its mouth and bit on one of its wings and effectively ripped it off half-way.

*ROOAAAARRR!!!*

The Sea Feilong roared in agony as it immediately sent another lightning breath and this time it was aimed at Smaug's face.

*BOOOM!*

Smaug was instantly hit at point-blank range with no chance to dodge. It was blasted away just like Zack but with its face smoking due to the attack.

The Sea Feilong directed its attention to Smaug's minions as it quickly massacred all of them in a few seconds then it looked at Zack again with his sword still at his hand and looking at it in determination while standing on a Manticore.

Even though the Sea Feilong has a large body, its movements are said to be one of the fastest of all Grimms, and because of this, that before Zack or Smaug could even follow up their attacks, it can easily counter it with its fast reflex.

/I DON'T LIKE THE LOOK OF YOUR EYES HUMAN AND I… WANT TO SEE YOU IN FEAR!! I'LL CHANGE IT FOR YOU!!!!/ The Sea Feilong charged instantly but this time it's a lot slower because of Smaug's bite earlier making it's left-wing injured.

Zack immediately noticed this as he motioned his Manticore to charge as well.

As their distance got shorter, Zack suddenly jumped off his Manticore with his sword at his side while the Sea Feilong opened its mouth to ready to eat him whole.

(A/N: JOKE, I hate cliff-kun so…)

As Zack was about to be eaten by the Sea Feilong, he quickly stepped on its tongue and instantly sidestepped to its side of the mouth while it closed after almost taking his right arm with the skin of his teeth. He quickly stabbed his sword on its left eye and with the momentum of it, it was plunged deeply with Zack's little effort.

*RROOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR!!!*

The Sea Feilong wildly thrashed in pain as it tried to claw out Zack along with his sword but Zack plunged it deeper than it already is, making it roar again in agony that it started mindlessly spewing out its lightning breath all around the place.

Zack held on for dear life but as some lightning was starting to reach him, he took it out much to the relief of the Sea Feilong but it instantly regretted calming down as Zack stabbed again but this time it was at the back of its neck.

"Heh, funny thing, a moment ago you wanted me to feel fear but now, you're the one feeling it and I ask you, do you fear death?" Zack said calmly then without waiting for it to answer, he gripped his sword as he started dragging his sword at its back.

/NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!/

"AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!"

Zack forced it all the way to its tail and jumped off it at the same time the Sea Feiling started falling down while its body began emitting black smoke as it indicates that it is already dead.

*SPLASHH!!*

*splash!*

As the Sea Feilong hit the sea below, Zack followed it as he was still feeling fatigued while his Aura was already on the Red but even though he knew it himself, he still swam over to the dead Sea Feilong.

Zack climbed over the dead body while it floated. He looked over the remaining Smaug's minions but they already started dissipating as Smaug itself was already back in his shadow.

He couldn't contain Smaug's injury so it went back instead. He rested for a few minutes trying to recover his lost Aura while laying down at the smoking carcass.

"...Gramps, what's the situation over there?" Zack called Ozpin over his scroll while looking over the clouds.

"ZACK!!! ARE YOU ALRIGHT!?" Ozpin quickly asked in agitation as right now, he was facing a scary Glynda and the rest of Zack's friends.

"Yup… still alive hehe," Zack said light-heartedly as he noticed his Aura is starting to go back in the yellow.

" *Pheww* Where are you, Zack, we'll come and find you now," Ruby's voice rang out in worry.

"And we don't know why but Bubba suddenly started to disappear earlier so we head over here after taking out those Grimms at Mt. Glenn to know where you were," Weiss rationally explained calmly.

"Huh, good job! All of you! I'm proud of you guys, I knew you could easily do it hehe," Zack replied.

"Hmm, if I'm right, then I may be out of Vale a few miles away towards the east," He continued while sitting up and placing his hand over the still smoking carcass of the Sea Feilong.

He looked at a giant fin-like sticking out of the water heading towards him like a speed boat.

"Alright! Stay right there! We'll be coming over there to pick you up!" Yang hollered quickly while they all heard a roar coming closer to him.

*rooooaaarrrrr!*

At that roar, it finally stood up using its hind legs and looked down at Zack.

"Heh, then you guys might want to hurry… I got company, a giant company, I'll see you all later alright! Now! AWAKEN SHENLONG!!!" Zack rushed his call as he instantly called out to Shenlong, his newest minion.

Zack's shadow instantly engulfed him as he stood on Shenlong, a greenish-blue Sea Feilong, and look at the Leviathan still staring at him.

"Heh, your the last one bud! After this, I'm gonna go on a chocolate-eating spree on Vale hehehe" Zack said as he was already excited for his taste of heaven but what he didn't know, a nightmare awaits him there.

Zack grinned at the Leviathan but he suddenly made Shenlong moved to the side to dodge a rocket heading for him.

He looked over and saw a Bullhead with its hatch open and Tyrian carrying a huge gun of sorts while throwing tantrum.

"Damnit Damnit! I told you guys to attack him earlier while he was down but nooo, you p*ssies!" Tyrian yelled out from Bullhead.

"We get it already, quit being a b*tch Tyrian, fire the missiles! Even though he rested earlier, I'm sure he's still feeling fatigued from earlier!" Hazel replied as he ordered Tyrian and the pilot to fire on Zack again.

Zack narrowed his eyes on that Bullhead as he noticed they were aiming at him again but before he could command Shenlong, he also noticed that the Leviathan opened its mouth and was charging something at its mouth.

"Shenlong, fire at the Leviathan!!" Zack immediately ordered as he faced the Bullhead and sent out two blade beams towards it while Shenlong charged and fired its lightning breath on the Leviathan.

The Leviathan quickly sent out a stream of electric fire towards them while the Bullhead fired all of its missiles and rockets as well.

*BOOOOOMMM!!*

*BOOOOOMMM!!*

Two explosions quickly erupted with Zack at the center of both of those two.

As the cloud of smoke clears out, Zack was seen in his one knee while panting with his sword in front of him.

"HAHAHAHA LOOK AT YOU NOW ZACK FAIR!! YOU LOOK LIKE SH*T!! WHAT WAS IT AGAIN YOU SAID EARLIER!!" Tyrian immediately yelled out in glee as he saw Zack finally on his knee.

"Whaat?..." Zack suddenly got a foreboding feeling as he narrowed his eyes on Tyrian who was hysterically laughing at the moment.

"YOU SEE YOU PIECE OF SH*T! AS WE CONDUCTED AN INVESTIGATION ON YOUR ASS, WE FOUND SOMETHING REALLY ENLIGHTENING!! CAN YOU GIVE A GUESS!!?" Tyrian yelled out as several huge holograms of different stores are being projected on video.

Zack looked at those places but as he looked closer, they all have something similar to each other then he looked at Tyrian more closely and he finally noticed he was holding a detonator of some kind.

As he connected those two things, he widened his eyes in shock.

"YES!! THAT EXPRESSION YOU HAVE THERE!! IT'S APPROPRIATE BEFORE I KILL YOU MYSELF!! THAT'S RIGHT! ZACK FAIR IS OBSESSED WITH HIS FAVORITE CHOCOLATES!! WELL, WHAT DO THINK AFTER I DID THIS THEN!!" Tyrian laughed out loud as he showed off his detonator and pushed it without the consent of Hazel or Arthur.

The projected videos showed that each of these chocolate stores exploded in fires while Zack was forced to watch this scene. He stood up straight with his eyes widened and mouth slightly open in shock.

"What are you doing Tyrian! We were supposed to use that to make him come with us smoothly!!" Hazel quickly argued with Tyrian but Tyrian ignored him and was still laughing in glee as he savored Zack's face of despair.

"HAHAHA THAT'S RIGHT WALLOW ON YOUR OWN DESPAIR YOU SON OF A B*TCH!!" Tyrian still mocked at the strangely quiet Zack whose head was brought down.

*ROOOAAAAARRRRR*

The Leviathan grew impatient and finally charged, then fired another stream of electric fire at the immobile Zack and Shenlong.

*BOOOOMMM!*

The attack hit them while Tyrian was still laughing at the supposed death of Zack but Hazel didn't say anything and looked at the cloud of smokes covering their target.

Hazel right now, was feeling dread all of a sudden, his back is covered in a cold sweat for some unknown reason. It felt like death was looking at him right now.

"PILOT! GET US OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW!!" Hazel quickly yelled out in a hurry which drew Tyrian and Arthur's attention.

"What are you going on again old man, we finally killed that son of a b*tch, and best yet, we can blame it all on that Leviathan that is going about to destroy Va-HEY! What is that giant dumb Grimm doing all of a sudden!?" Tyrian commented but he stopped mid-way as he saw the Leviathan turned around quickly and moved away immediately like it's running away.

"SH*T! THAT THING KNOWS SOMETHING!! PILOT!! WE NEED TO LEAVE NOW!" Hazel looked over as well and quickly yelled out again for the pilot.

"~Why are all leaving already? I just got out,~" A voice suddenly was heard as the cloud of smoke cleared out but instead of Zack, someone else was standing in his place.

A tall guy with a muscular build was in Zack's clothes, he has long silver hair reaching to his back. He took Zack's Fusion sword and placed it at his back while he took out from his back a long handle of a sword while its blade was short as a knife.

He looked at them with a grin as his green cat-like eyes eerily glowed.

"~Now, let's continue on shall we~," Sephiroth said calmly as the blade of his weapon extended to a seven-foot-long katana.
