Chapter 199: Battle of Beacon (2)
~Third POV~
"Rargh…!"
"AH!"
"RUN AWAY!"
"Oh no god – AH!"
The fairgrounds are in chaos as civilians run away from the hordes of Grimm. Atlesian Knight-200s are seen firing at the dark creatures, and a vendor hides behind his booth when a group of Ursai runs past.
Several Nevermores fly across the sky, one holding Roy Stallion in its talons trying to escape its grasp before long the Nevermore tried to eat him, "Ah nononono –"
*Bang*
Before it could one of the Future Foundation YoRHa units shot it down and used <Geppo> to catch the man Roy in question while responding, "Have no fear sir for the YoRHa units have been deployed. Please leave or fight."
Roy Stallion seeing he managed to live another day began to call his weapon from his Scroll soon getting his rocket lockers getting his weapons thinking to himself, 'I need to leave! But not without my weapons…!'
Taking the chance to flee but stopped noticing more students fighting alongside his teammates he begrudgingly decided to back them up while the YoRHa battle unit began fighting Grimm immediately assisting others.
Blake Belladonna and Weiss Schnee quickly deploy to the fairgrounds immediately as their group decided to separate helping people right away in pairs.
The duo is then shown watching in the horror at everything going on around them. Civilians continue to flee as Grimm continues to run amok, and a dead Creep on the ground starts to dissipate with Weiss wording out, "I don't believe this..."
Blake pulled out her Scroll calling Yang in a worried tone, "Yang, are you okay?"
/////
Getting back to Yang Xiao Long running in the hallways of the dorms finding her dog Zwei bringing him along not abandoning him.
*Beep*
Yang responding to Blake through her Scroll quickly spoke out hurriedly, "I'm fine. I managed to get my dog. Where meeting up soon."
Blake responds back before she closes her Scroll on her end in a hurry, "Alright. Will try to hurry up or help the people in need! Jack already sent out his Battle units don't waste time!"
Yang closes her eyes and curls her fist into a ball hesitantly mumbling while they started to get out, "Right… we have to worry about us or others first."
Feeling things are happening into chaos Yang began to hurry out forward with Zwei and turns the next corner of the hallways.
But something caught the eyes of Yang outside the windows outside as she worded out what's going on, "Wha – what the heck! Why is the White Fang releasing Grimm!"
*Thud*
*Thud*
Hearing footsteps out in the Dorm Yang quickly arms herself but freezes seeing something that will cause her to have nightmares.
What Yang saw was a Grimm version of herself with fire-lit hair draining a student's aura into nothing before...
*Splat*
Squishing the said student as the G. Yang eyes the original expressing a toothy grin along with a sadistic smile at her original while Yang has her Scroll open to warn the others, "Ahh… hello original. And goodbye."
*SWOOSH*
/////
Meanwhile back Weiss and Blake fighting against the horde of Grimm along with other Teams from other schools speaking out, "I can't believe something like… like this is happening…."
Yang soon began to respond to her friends immediately about what was happening to the docks near the courtyard, "I'm headed to the docks near the courtyard. The White Fang is releasing Grimm into the school!"
Blake alarmed through her Scroll, Blake hears the sounds of Grimm growling, and her expression grows ever more worried, "The White Fang is here!? Yang!"
Yang ends the call immediately when something came up, "Ugh! Gotta go! Be careful of monsters of—!"
*Beep*
Weiss asks Blake in a worried tone and confusion about what they're supposed to do next with the sudden interruption on Yang's end of her Scroll, "Blake, what are we going to do?"
Blake pensively thought for a moment before narrowing her eyes knowing what needs to be done, "We're going to the docks, and we're doing our job."
*BOOM*
Blake uses her Scroll to call upon her rocket locker, which lands behind her and opens up to reveal Gambol Shroud.
Weiss gives one last look at Blake before nodding in agreement in helping out the other students against the Grimm and White Fang.

"SCREEE…!"
Back at Amity Colosseum, the Nevermore screeches as it continues to weaken the force field that's keeping it from getting in with the Warning Announcer speaking out, "Warning: Safety Barriers Failing."
As the Nevermore circles around the colosseum, Penny releases her swords turning into energy cannons at the ready to aim the Nevermore off the sky before Jack stops her, "Penny wait! We can't attack it while the shields are up! Wait till it breaks and fire all you got along with any stragglers!"
Penny nods in agreement at the idea as the two look up and see the force field flash as the Nevermore rises back up before diving back in.
"SCREEE…!"
*CRACK*
"NOW!"
*PEW*
*PEW*
Suddenly, the Nevermore completely breaks through the holographic barrier, and the force of it lands on Penny and Jack as the Nevermore screeches and lunges towards but didn't last long when Penny erased it with her energy cannon.
However though…
"SCREEE…!"
More Nevermore's soon began to enter inside but before all of them could through a series of projectiles soon landed on the open battle arena.
*Thud*
*Thud*
*Thud*
*Thud*
One by one down by a barrage of rocket lockers, the lockers then open up, revealing the weapons of various students, including Crescent Rose, Milo and Akouo, StormFlower, Magnhild, and Fulcrum.
The respective owner of the weapons pulls it out from their lockers and is shown alongside Scarlet David gripping his cutlass and flintlock pistol, Sage Ayana with his sword, and Neptune Vasilias with his gun in hand.
Sun Wukong showing with Ruyi Bang and Jingu Bang in its staff form, Ren, Pyrrha, Ruby, and Nora carrying their respective weapons, and the remaining members of Team CFVY, the members of Team ABRN, as well as Flynt Coal and Neon Katt of Team FNKI, all gripping their respective weapons.
The students are then suddenly shaken when the Nevermore starts to attack from the sky with Jack responding holding his M.V.S. at them, "Everyone stays close and fights side by side! When one is caught another will save attacking the Grimm! Now is the time to fight damn it!"
Hearing his words, they all responded to action Ren then leaps up into the air and uses the blades of his weapons to slash at the Nevermore's eye. Arslan Altan uses her rope dart to swing down and grab the towering Yatsuhashi from the ground carrying him upward.
Sage also leaps up into the air, and Nora runs up to the Nevermore's head and hit it with Magnhild in its hammer form. When Arslan reaches peak height, she lets go of Yatsuhashi, who is then joined by Sage, as the two broadsword wielders slash down and decapitate the Nevermore.
Causing its head to land near Ruby and Pyrrha before dissipating into black particles, while the two fight off against another Nevermore with Ruby decapitating it with Pyrrha using her Semblance to keep it grounded using the nearby metals as the students form a perimeter.
As Arslan lands back on the ground next to her teammates voicing out her concern about the one responsible for the attack, "That damn bitch! Whoever was on that microphone... they're the ones that did this attack!"
Everyone listening to Arslan words could all agree in their hearts for the problem of this happening was caused by the one that took over the intercom system and holographic video screen causing fear to rise to attract Grimm.
"Cawww!"
Soon their attention was met with a Grimm Griffon coming towards them when they notice hippogriff-like Grimm land on top of the colosseum flying towards the group of students but Jack reacted quickly using <Super Speed>.
*Shing*
In one quick motion in a burst of speed decapitating the Griffon Grimm with more of his YoRHa battle units assisting the civilians and the students speaking out, "Be careful everyone. We got more coming soon best to have an idea what our plan of attack is, or escape would be."
"Cawww!"
Another one soon came after one of the students but before it could though…
*Bang*
A single gunshot was heard killing the Griffon Grimm in the head coming from Port holding his weapon Blowhard in hand, with Oobleck holding Antiquity's Roast in its club form speaking to his students in a serious tone, "Good idea Jack but I prefer you leave this to us. Students! I think it would be best for you to leave."
Ruby trying to reject the idea that they could be assisted by everyone here, "But we did a-"
But Ruby was interrupted by Oobleck speaking to Ruby harshly but turned soft in his tone, "Miss Rose! This day will surely go down in Remnant's history. I'd prefer it if my students could live to tell about it."
Ruby nods at the Doctor's words before grabbing Crescent Rose and twirling it into its scythe form with everyone following behind her, "Alright. Let's go!"
Quickly leaving Jack gave the two a heads up leaving behind a clone with a worried look on his face before speaking out, "Oobleck! Port! I'll leave a clone behind to provide you with two more ammo you could need back from my own organization of the Future Foundation! All the ammo you could need!"
Port and Oobleck didn't say anything with Jack's YoRHa battle units and Knightmare frames leaving to help out in the battle while 2 from each help the professors out with Port smirking at this happily, "Hahaha! Free ammunition without the worry of running out against a Grimm invasion like this? I say we got this boy! Now go help out your friends in need!"
Jack gazes at them but smiles with a nod knowing those two are better off with 2 of his battle units and Knightmare Frames along with his clone supplying them ammo along to the other students that need a refuel of ammo.
As all the students leave, Ruby gets distracted by the flash of Velvet Scarlatina's camera taking a photo of Jack coming towards them. She stops to look at the photograph she took but is interrupted when her leader calls out to her, "Velvet!"
With the students clear of the arena, Port and Oobleck stand back-to-back with their weapons in hand as the Griffons circle around them along with Jack's clone, 2 battle units, and 2 Knightmare Frames pointing their guns out at the Grimm circling them.
Port laughs enthusiastically at the scene making a show of the scene, "Ha! Six vs a Grimm invasion with a big supply of Dust Ammo huh? How about it Barty! One final match, Barty! Place your bets!"
Oobleck smiles getting a new ammo of Dust taking aim with the Griffon Grimm coming towards them, "Oh please Port. You know I'm winning this."
*Bang*
With shots fired the fights have already begun.
/////
*Bang*
*Bang*
Elsewhere in the streets of Vale City A2 comes along killing off any of Vermillion's allies being killed off slicing them or shooting them with her mechas weapons.
Vermillion bloodied and beaten to a pulp coughs out blood with his crew dying on the ground yelling in frustration, "Ack! You bitch! How did you know we were even here?!"
Slowly coming over to his direction his Aura and Semblance were blocked by the Aura cuffs on his person with multiple Future Foundation drones destroyed near his body A2 went over with a frown on her face, "You tell me? Who's the one that can kill the clones sent here to kill you off? I monitored the situation till that weird Grimm with the umbrella somehow convinced the clones of master to die to something sending me to deal with you."
Coughing in blood Vermillion chocking in his own blood muttering out to A2 dying on the floor, "Ack! I… guess Salem's pets are doing their part… Hehehe… Guess those monsters mistress made can kill that–"
*Shing*
Cutting off his head from his body with A2 sword going towards his head picking it up and shaking her head at this, "No. The one that is bypassing the natural defenses of the master's clones' skills needs to die fast. He wouldn't have called me here unless it was something important. Now then…"
Carrying the head in a bag A2 began to hunt down where the next group of people would know that's likely where to find the Grimmified counterparts…
/////
Meanwhile at the Vale City walls with Grimm pouring outside coming through attacking everything in their wake stood C. Jack's waiting arming their weapons out, "Alright men charge and – "
*Shing*
*Poof*
*Poof*
*Poof*
Before they knew what hit them they all suddenly got killed off turning into aura again while G. Neo casually changes the scene of Grimm pouring into an already destroyed wall with her magic flaring in her eyes grabbing the last one of C. Jack made him freeze seeing who it was surprised, "Wait –"
*Poof*
The clone disappeared but not before long the aura used to make it animated soon entered the G. Neo body with a pleasant growl on her face thinking to herself, 'Grr…~ Best part of being Grimm… I can absorb the aura of others easily…'
Eyeing more C. Jack around the city casting her Illusion Magic around G. Neo began to devour the clone auras saving people making the situation much more difficult coming around as she wasn't the only Grimmified member taking advantage of this situation.
