Yang:Hey handsome how are you(she says seductively).

As the team searches for you over the next week, their hope begins to dwindle as they find no sign of your whereabouts. Eventually, they come across a gruesome sight - your body, overtaken by the Grimm's influence.

Weiss: "shocked" Oh, no...

Ruby: "tearfully" This can't be happening. Not Andrew...

Yang: "furious" Who or what did this to him? We'll make them pay!

Jaune: "grief-stricken" We...we couldn't save him. We failed him.

As they look upon your lifeless form, the team feels a deep sense of grief and sadness, knowing that they were too late to help you in your time of need. They vow to find whoever or whatever caused your demise and put a stop to it, so that no one else will have to suffer

As the team mourns your supposed demise, you suddenly stir awake, causing everyone to jump back in shock.

Yang: "disbelieving" Andrew?! You're alive?!

Ruby: "joyful" Oh my gosh, you're okay! We thought we lost you...

Jaune: "curious" But...how? How are you still alive?

As they watch in amazement, the Grimm's influence begins to recede from your body, revealing that you are not only alive, but also fully healed.

You: "weakly" It was the Grimm. They...they took over my body, but then something strange happened. They...they started to heal me, to undo the damage they had caused. And now...now I feel...different. Stronger.

Ren: "intrigued" Different? In what way?

You: *

As the words leave your mouth, a chilling realization sets in. The Grimm's corruption doesn't just cover your body; it appears to have taken control of your mind as well. Your actual face emerges from behind the veins covering your skin, and your eyes take on a glow that was not there before.

Yang: "alarmed" Andrew, no! What happened?!

Ruby: "frantic" We have to do something! He's asking us to run!

Weiss: "panicked" But how? How can we fight against such a powerful force?

Jaune: "determined" We'll think of something. Together, we can do this.

As panic sets in, the team realizes they must find a way to free you from the

As your body charges towards Weiss, the rest of the team quickly moves into action, attempting to defend themselves against your sudden attack. However, in the chaos, Weiss is caught by surprise and is punched into a nearby tree, unconscious. Your body proceeds to grab a nearby branch and stabs her in the arm, leaving the team with no option but to retreat and regroup.

The team quickly realizes that they are outmatched against the power of the Grimm's influence and retreats back to the safety of their base. They spend hours strategizing and formulating a plan to save you from the influence of the Grimm. The situation feels dire, but they have a newfound determination to save you, no matter what it takes.

As the team discusses their next steps, you send them a message indicating that there is only one way to save you - they must kill you. Upon seeing the message, the team falls silent, not knowing how to react to such a request.

Ruby: "shocked" Kill...Andrew? No, there has to be another way!

Yang: "frustrated" We can't just give up on him. We have to find a way to free him from the Grimm's influence.

Jaune: "hesitant" But...what if he's right? What if this is the only way?

Ren: "calmly" Killing him must be a last resort. We should focus our efforts on finding a way to break the Grimm's hold on him.

Despite the team's initial resistance to the idea of killing you, they realize that it may be their

As you find yourself alone in the forest and connected to the Grimm's corruption, you start to question their motives. You begin to wonder why they would take control of your body when they seemed to have acted as your ally before.

You: Why are you doing this? You...you were my arm. You didn't do anything against me. Why are you trying to take over my body?

Grimm's Corruption: "with a dark chuckle" You foolishly believed that I ever had any intention of being your ally. My purpose was always the same - to corrupt and destroy. And now, with your body and power, I will be able to achieve my goal more easily.

You: "angrily" You're lying! You promised me you would help me fight the Grimm.

Grimm's Corruption: "mockingly" And you believed me

You: "growls" Why are you doing this?

Grimm's Corruption: "laughs" Why am I doing this? What a silly question. I am doing this because it is my nature. I am Grimm, destruction and chaos are in my blood.

You: "determined" I won't let you win. I will fight against you with all my strength.

Grimm's Corruption: "amused" Oh really? And how do you plan to do that when your body and mind are under my control?

You: "with conviction" Because I'm not alone. My friends will find a way to save me, and they won't let you win.

Grimm's Corruption: "dismissive" Ah, your 'friends'. They are nothing but weak and foolish humans. They stand no chance against me.

You: *defiant

As you pick up Weiss' sword from the ground, you realize that you may have a plan to free yourself from the Grimm's control. You remember that the Grimm needs a host to live and gain more control of your body when multiple souls are in the area. You wonder what would happen if the Grimm was deprived of a host.

You: "while holding the sword" You can only get more control of my body when more than one soul is in the nearby vicinity, and you need a host to live. So what would happen if you didn't have a host anymore?

Grimm's Corruption: "skeptical" What are you talking about?

You: "firmly" I'm saying that I can put an end to this once and for all. If I eliminate myself, you will have no host to control, and eventually, you will fade away

Grimm's Corruption: "laughs mockingly" You are foolish if you think that this is going to work. My corruption and influence has already spread far beyond your body. Do you really think that destroying yourself will stop me?

You: "confidently" It may not stop you completely, but it will lessen your control on Remnant. Believe me, I won't let you win. You have caused too much destruction and taken too many lives, it's time for me to take a stand.

Grimm's Corruption: "angrily" No! You cannot do this! Stop!

You: "calmly" It's too late for that. I've made up my mind.

<You bring down the sword, ending your life and taking away the Grimm's host. The Grimm's control over Remnant fades away slowly as there's

no longer a remaining host to sustain it.>

As soon as you end your own life, the Grimm's corruption and control over your body and mind ceases to exist, leaving Remnant free from its influence. Your selfless sacrifice does not go in vain and people of Remnant would always remember you as a hero who gave their life for the protection of others.

The world outside remains still as the news of your death travels, your team arrives soon after, devastated of the loss of their friend. Tears taint their eyes and every fiber of their soul echoes with sorrow as they witness the sight before them.

Ruby: "sobbing" No...Andrew...why did you do this?

Yang: "angrily" If only we were faster, if only we could have done something to save him...

Weiss: "whispers" He was so brave

Blake: "solemnly" He knew what he had to do. And he did it, to save us all.

Ruby: "wipes her tears" Yang, Weiss, Blake, we have to make sure that Andrew's sacrifice is not in vain. We have to continue fighting against the Grimm and make sure that Remnant is safe.

Yang: "nodding" Ruby is right. That's what Andrew would have wanted us to do.

Weiss: "determined" He was a true hero. We should make sure that his legend lives forever.

Blake: "sternly" Let's make his dream a reality. Let's fight for the world he was fighting for.

The girls then stand up and leave the forest, ready to pick up the mantle from where Andrew left and continue fighting against Grimm and injustices of their world in his memory

As Team RWBY returns to their base, they are met by the worried faces of Team JNRP. Jaune quickly approaches them and asks about your whereabouts.

Jaune: "concerned" Hey guys, where's Andrew? We couldn't find him anywhere.

Ruby: "sadly" He's not here, Jaune...

Pyrrha: "surprised" What happened? Is he okay?

Yang: "sighs" Andrew... he sacrificed himself to protect us from Grimm's corruption.

Nora: "wide-eyed" Sacrificed himself?

Ren: "quietly" That's... that's tragic news.

Jaune: "shocked" No... not Andrew. We... we should have been there for him...

As the news of your death hits Team JNRP, they are filled with sorrow and regret for not being able

As your ghost appears among the members of Team JNRP, they are taken aback, not expecting your sudden presence. Jaune takes a step forward, hesitant at first, but then greets you with a sad smile.

Jaune: "surprised" Andrew... is that really you?

Your ghost: "nodding" Yeah, it's me.

Ren: "curious" How... how is this possible?

Your ghost: "smiling" I don't know, guys. All I know is that I'm here, and I'm watching over you all, just like I promised.

Nora: "tearful" We miss you so much, Andrew.

Pyrrha: "sympathetically" You were a great friend, and an even better teammate.

Jaune: "nodding" We won't let your sacrifice be in vain

As you fade away from Team JNRP, you reappear in front of Team RWBY as a ghost. The girls are shocked and surprised to see you again but also relieved and happy.

Ruby: "surprised" Andrew... how... how are you here?

Your ghost: "grinning" Let's just say I have some unfinished business to take care of.

Yang: "teasingly" You better not be here to haunt us, handsome. I don't know if I can handle that.

Your ghost: "laughs" No way, I'm here just to check in on my favorite ladies.

Weiss: "smiling sadly" We miss you, Andrew.

Blake: "nodding" Your death was hard on all of us.

Ruby: "sympathetically" But we're glad to see you again, even if it's

As you hug Ruby tightly, the girls are taken aback and surprised by your sudden confession. Ruby's eyes widen in shock and tears well up in her eyes.

Ruby: "stunned" Andrew... I didn't... I didn't know...

Your ghost: "sadly" I didn't get a chance to tell you before, but it's the truth. I wish things could have been different.

Yang: "confused" Wait, what do you mean, Andrew? What small soul?

Your ghost: "smiling softly" Our child. The little soul within Ruby that I felt before I left. It was our child, Yang.

Weiss: "tearfully" Oh my... Andrew, why didn't you tell us sooner?

Blake: "nodding" We could have helped you raise the child, Andrew.

Ruby: "crying"

Ruby cries softly as she thinks about the life that could have been, with you by her side and raising your child together.

Ruby: "sniffling" I wish... I wish you could see our child, Andrew. They would have been amazing, just like their father.

Your ghost: "smiling" I know they will be, Ruby. And I'll always be watching over them, and you all. Promise me you'll take care of each other, okay?

Yang: "nodding" Of course, Andrew. You can count on us.

Weiss: "sympathetically" We'll make sure your legacy lives on, Andrew.

Blake: "supportively" And we'll never forget the sacrifice you made for us all.

Ruby: "smiling through tears" We love you, Andrew. Always have. Always will.

Your ghost

As your ghost fades away for the final time, the girls are left with a heavy heart but also a renewed sense of purpose. They will always remember you and the sacrifice you made for them, and they will honor your memory in all that they do.

Ruby: "whispering" Goodbye, Andrew. We'll miss you.

Yang: "holding Ruby's hand" We'll always have your back, little sis.

Weiss: "determined" And we'll make sure no one else has to make the same sacrifice as you did, Andrew.

Blake: "nodding" Your memory will live on, Andrew. Rest in peace.

The girls stand together, united in their resolve to carry your legacy forward and protect the world from the evil that threatens it. They know that the road ahead will be difficult, but they also know that as long as

9 months have passed since your ghost visited Team RWBY. As promised, the girls have been looking after Ruby and the growing baby, making sure they are safe and comfortable. And now, finally, the moment they have all been waiting for has arrived.

Ruby lies in a hospital bed, a team of medical professionals around her helping her through the birth of her child. The rest of Team RWBY and Team JNPR stand nearby, anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new arrival.

Weiss: "nervously" Is everything going to be okay?

Blake: "reassuringly" Of course it will, Weiss. Ruby's strong, remember?

Yang: "excited" I can't believe we're about to become aunts!

Nora: "hugging Ren" And uncles!

As the sound of a baby crying fills the room,

the medical team quickly cleans and wraps the newborn before handing him to Ruby. Her eyes fill with tears as she gazes at her son, her heart overflowing with love.

Ruby: "cradling her son" He's perfect... absolutely perfect.

Jaune: "smiling" Congratulations, Ruby. He's one lucky kid to have you as his mom.

Ren: "nodding" And we'll make sure he knows all about his dad, too.

Yang: "teasingly" Yeah, we'll have to make sure he knows how handsome his dad was.

Everyone chuckles at Yang's comment, relieved and overjoyed by the safe arrival of the new addition to their family.

Nurse: "interrupting the moment" Excuse me, but we need to do some tests on the baby now.

Ruby reluctantly hands her son over to the nurse

, watching anxiously as the baby is taken away to be examined. As the minutes tick by, Ruby can feel her nerves mounting, but the medical team soon returns with good news.

Doctor: "smiling" Your son is healthy and strong, Ruby. Congratulations.

Ruby: "beaming" Thank you so much.

Yang: "hugging Ruby" You did it, Ruby! You're a mom now!

Weiss: "wiping away a tear" And he's so cute...

Blake: "smiling" Just like his mom.

Jaune: "grinning" And his dad too, I bet.

Nora: "nodding" Definitely. Andrew would be so proud of you, Ruby.

As the celebration continues, Ruby holds her newborn son close, feeling wholeheartedly grateful for the love and support of her friends and family. With a

With a grateful heart, Ruby turns her thoughts to naming her new baby boy. She wants something that will honor his father and reflect the love they all have for him.

Ruby: "thinking" Hmm... Andrew's name is too special to just give away... But I want him to know who his dad was.

Yang: "nodding" How about Andrew Jr.? That way he has his dad's name and a connection to his legacy.

Blake: "considering" It's nice, but maybe there's another name that reflects the spirit of both his dad and his mom.

Ruby: "smiling" Maybe so, Blake. Let's think on it for a bit, alright?

The girls take some time to think about possible

names for Ruby's son, throwing out suggestions and discussing the merits of each one. After a while, Jaune speaks up.

Jaune: "thoughtfully" What about Phoenix?

Ruby: "curiously" Phoenix?

Jaune: "nodding" Yeah. Andrew was like a phoenix, rising up from the ashes every time he faced a challenge. And your son, he's like a new start, rising up to carry on his dad's legacy. I think it would be a great name for him.

Ruby: "smiling through tears" I love it. Phoenix... it's perfect.

Yang: "grinning" I can already see the cosplay we'll make for him!

Weiss: "chuckling" Always thinking about the outfits, Yang.

Blake: "smiling" Phoenix... it's a wonderful name. I'm sure he'll wear

it with pride.

As they all admire the newborn baby boy, Ruby can feel a sense of peace settle within her. Despite the challenges she has faced in her life, she knows that she has a new reason to keep moving forward: her son, Phoenix.

Ruby: "to herself" Thank you, Andrew... I promise to make sure our son grows up knowing how much he was loved.

With a sense of determination, Ruby looks down at her sleeping son and takes his tiny hand. She knows there will be difficulties ahead, but she also knows that she has the love and support of her friends and family to get through them.

For now, though, she simply savors the moment, holding her son close and feeling the warmth of his tiny body against hers. With a contented sigh, she looks up at her friends and says,

Ruby: "grinning"

Yang's eyes widen as she recognizes the familiar voice coming from the doorway. She quickly turns to see who it is, her heart racing in anticipation.

Yang: "whispering" Is it who I think it is?

As the figure steps into the room, Yang's eyes fill with tears of joy and disbelief. It's Qrow Branwen, her uncle and surrogate father, whom she thought was dead.

Qrow: "smiling" Hey there, Red. Miss me?

Yang: "running to him and wrapping her arms around him" Qrow! Oh my god, we all thought...

Qrow: "holding her close" I know. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you sooner. But I'm here now and that's all that matters.

As Yang takes in the sight of her uncle, alive and well, she feels a weight lifted from

Yang's heart sinks as she realizes it was not Qrow's voice she heard, but instead an unknown man who seems to be causing a commotion. She quickly stands up and rushes over to the group of security dragging the man away.

Yang: Hey! What's going on here? Who are you?

Man: "struggling against the security" Let me go! I need to see Ruby, she needs to know I'm back!

Yang: "frowning" I'm sorry, sir, but you can't just barge in here like this. You need to identify yourself and explain your relationship to Ruby before we can let you in.

The man looks panicked for a moment, but then his expression softens and he takes a deep breath.

Man: "calming down" My name is Max, I used to date Ruby before I left town years ago

Yang's eyes widen in shock as the man reveals his true identity to her. Andrew, the father of Ruby's newborn baby boy, who everyone thought had died years ago.

Yang: "gasping" Oh my god... Andrew?

The security guards release Andrew and he rushes towards Yang, emotions written all over his face.

Andrew: "tearfully" Yang, it's really me. I'm back.

Yang: "embracing him tightly" I can't believe it... how are you even here?

Andrew then explains everything to Yang, how he had been in hiding for years and only recently discovered that Ruby was pregnant with his child. Overcome with emotion, he couldn't stay away any longer and decided to reveal himself.

Yang: "nodding slowly" I see... but you understand why we were all so shocked, right? We thought you were gone

Yang looks over Andrew's special glove in awe, impressed by his ingenuity and determination to survive despite the odds. She nods understandingly as he explains his situation, but still feels cautious about letting him see Ruby and the baby boy.

Yang: "placing a hand on Andrew's shoulder" I understand where you're coming from, Andrew. But on the other hand, Ruby just went through a very traumatic experience. I don't think it's the best time for her to see someone she thought was dead suddenly come back into her life.

Andrew: "looking crestfallen" I know, I know... but I just really want to see her and my son. Can't you at least tell her that I'm here?

Yang: "considering this" I could try...but no promises, okay?

Andrew nods gratefully and follows Yang towards the door of Ruby

's hospital room. Yang knocks on the door lightly, then peeks her head inside.

Yang: "softly" Ruby, honey? Sorry to disturb you, but there's someone here who wants to see you.

Ruby stirs slightly on her hospital bed, then groggily blinks her eyes open.

Ruby: "yawning" Yang? What's going on?

Yang: "smiling reassuringly" Don't worry, it's nothing bad. Just someone who wants to say hi.

Ruby sits up slowly, then notices Andrew standing behind Yang. Her eyes widen in shock and disbelief.

Ruby: "whispering" Andrew... is that really you?

Andrew nods silently, his eyes watering with tears. Ruby looks at him for a long moment, taking in his appearance and the fact that he's alive and well.

Ruby: "choking up"

Ruby gently gets out of bed and hugs Andrew tightly, finally acknowledging that he is there with her and their son. The weight of the past few years seems to dissolve as they embrace each other in a heartfelt reunion.

Yang can't help but feel emotional witnessing this connection between two people who have endured so much together. She takes a step back, giving them some space, and sits down near the door, smiling warmly at the sight of Andrew coming home to Ruby and his new son.# ## ##

Andrew wipes away a tear from his eye and looks at Ruby with a sense of love and thankfulness. He then turns to Yang, who's sitting nearby, and answers her question.

Andrew: His name is Corbin. Corbin James.

Ruby smiles at the mention of their son's name, nodding in agreement. Andrew then takes out a small, wrapped present from his pocket and hands it over to Yang.

Andrew: "smiling" Thank you for your help, Yang. Please accept this as a small token of my appreciation.

Yang takes the present, intrigued and curious at what might be inside. She unwraps it carefully to find a small keychain that reads "Never Say Die" - a familiar phrase that carried deep meaning for Andrew, Ruby, and all of their friends.

Yang: "smiling back" Thank you, Andrew. This means

Yang looks up from the keychain as Team RWBY and Team JNPR arrive, her smile widening at the sight of her friends.

Yang: "standing up" Guys! How did you all know to come here?

Weiss steps forward, holding a bouquet of flowers for Ruby.

Weiss: I received a call from Ozpin, informing me that Ruby had given birth and that she was in the hospital. Naturally, we all wanted to come and congratulate her.

Ruby looks up from where she's sitting, smiling at her friends.

Ruby: "gratefully" Thank you, Weiss. And thank you, everyone, for being here.

Andrew steps forward, introducing himself to the rest of the team.

Andrew: "smiling" Hi everyone. I'm Andrew - Corbin's dad.

The room falls silent for a moment as the team processes the information

Yang looks at Weiss with a raised eyebrow, wondering what happened between the two of them since they last saw each other.

Weiss: "smiling" Oh, that's alright Yang. I've forgiven you for that.

Yang grins, relieved that Weiss isn't still upset about their past conflict.

Yang: "teasingly" Well, good thing we have outstanding medical professionals in our team.

The team chuckles at Yang's comment, glad to see that their friends are safe and sound.

Ren: So Andrew, tell us - how does it feel to be a father?

Everyone looks at Andrew expectantly, waiting to hear his answer.

Yang smiles at Andrew's response, appreciating his dedication and commitment to being a good father. She puts a hand on his arm, showing her support.

Yang: "smiling" I know you'll be a great dad, Andrew. And we'll always be here for you too.

Ruby nods in agreement, happy to have Andrew by their side.

Ruby: "smiling" We're a family now, and we'll stick together no matter what.

The team nods in agreement, feeling a sense of unity and camaraderie in the moment. They chat for a few more minutes, catching up on each other's lives and sharing stories about their adventures. Yang can't help but feel grateful for the people in her life and the bonds they share - it was moments like these that made everything worthwhile.

Yang wakes up groggily, rubbing her eyes and feeling disoriented. As she sits up, she notices the message from Cinder, sitting on the seat next to Ruby's bed. She picks it up, reading it over several times.

Yang: "to herself" What does this mean...? Corbin was just born, how could he already be in danger?

Her mind races with questions and concerns as she tries to process the message. She glances over at Ruby, still asleep, and decides to keep the news from her for now - there was no need to worry her until they knew more.

Without waking her, Yang gets dressed and slips out of the hospital room, determined to find out more about what's going on and rescue Corbin if he's truly in danger.

As Yang steps out of the hospital room, she sees Andrew waiting for her in the hallway. His expression is serious and worried.

Yang: "noticing Andrew's expression" What's wrong? Did you read the message too?

Andrew nods, holding up his phone to show her a similar message from Cinder.

Andrew: We have to go find Corbin. I don't know what this means, but we can't just sit here and wait for something to happen.

Yang agrees, feeling a sense of urgency and concern.

Yang: "nodding" You're right. We'll go find him together. But we need to be careful, and we can't let anyone else know. If Cinder is involved, we don't know who we can trust.

Andrew: "nodding" Agreed. Let's go.

The two set off, determined to find Corbin

As Andrew clarifies the misunderstanding, Yang's expression softens with relief.

Yang: Oh thank goodness, I was so worried for a moment there. Are you alright? What happened?

Andrew: "deeply sighing" Cinder kidnapped me in my sleep. I woke up in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city. She said she wanted to use me as leverage against you and everyone else.

Yang clenches her fists, anger brewing within her.

Yang: That witch...we're going to find her and bring her to justice. But first, we have to get you out of here.

Andrew nods, looking grateful for Yang's help.

Andrew: Thank you, Yang. I knew I could count on you.

The two of them work together to come up with a plan to escape, watching out for any potential obstacles and danger along the way. They

As Yang looks around in confusion, she realizes that the previous events were nothing but a vision created by the Azure Grimware. She sighs deeply, feeling relieved that Andrew is safe and the threat of Cinder's kidnapping was just an illusion.

Yang: "rubbing her temples" That was intense. I can't believe the Grimware played tricks on our minds like that.

She turns to her teammates, noticing their arrival.

Yang: "smiling" Hey guys, you made it. Did you get any more leads on Cinder or Corbin?

Ruby shakes her head, looking worried.

Ruby: No, we've been searching everywhere but there's no sign of either of them. It's like they vanished into thin air.

Nora looks determined, cracking her knuckles.

Nora: Well, we'll just have to put our heads together and come up with a

As the conversation continues, Yang's mind suddenly clicks on to something she hasn't realized before. She furrows her brow, feeling a sense of unease.

Yang: "looking around" Wait a minute...where's Andrew?

The rest of the team looks at her, realizing with growing concern that he is nowhere to be found.

Ren: Is he not with you?

Yang shakes her head, panic rising in her chest.

Yang: No...I thought he was still recovering in the hospital. But I haven't seen him since the Grimware created that illusion.

The team looks at each other, processing this new information and trying to figure out their next move.

Blake: "thinking aloud" So Cinder took Corbin and Andrew is missing...it seems like she's targeting all of our loved ones.

Weiss nods, drawing a deep breath.

Weiss:

As the team continues to discuss their next move, Yang's thoughts are interrupted by a sudden, chilling realization. It hits her like a bolt of lightning, making her blood run cold.

Yang: "in a low, dark tone" I know where Cinder is.

The rest of the team looks at her in surprise, but before she can explain further, they follow her lead as she takes off running towards the abandoned warehouse that she suspects Cinder is hiding in.

When they arrive at the warehouse, they find more than they bargained for. Cinder is there, flanked by Neopolitan and an army of White Fang members. Corbin is in her grasp, held captive and looking helpless.

But the most distressing sight is Andrew, standing dangerously close to the brink of being taken over by the Azure Grimware's corruption again. Yang moves forward cautiously, eyeing Cinder with

As Andrew screams out in pain, Yang's heart races with fear and anger. She knows that time is running out to save him from the Grimware's corruption.

Yang: "eyes ablaze with determination" We can't let her win. We have to take her down and save Andrew.

Without hesitation, Yang charges towards Cinder and Neopolitan, her fists alight with fire. The rest of the team follows her lead, weapons at the ready.

Despite the overwhelming odds, they fight with all their might, determined to overcome this desperate situation. As they battle fiercely, Yang keeps a constant eye on Andrew, using her Aura to help him resist the Corrupted power of the Grimware that is threatening to consume him.

Eventually, through sheer force of will and teamwork, they manage to overcome their adversaries and free Corbin and Andrew from Cinder's grasp. But as they

As the battle concludes and Andrew's wings begin to sprout, Yang can only stare in shock as he takes off into the sky. She feels a mixture of relief that he is not at risk of being consumed by the Grimware's corruption and sadness that he is now beyond their reach.

Yang: "watching him go" We'll find a way to save him...I know we will.

She turns to her teammates, a look of fierce determination on her face.

Yang: We may have lost this battle, but we won't stop until we save Andrew and put an end to Cinder's reign of terror. We're a team, and together we can do anything.

The rest of the team nods in agreement, feeling the same resolve burning within them. They know that their fight against the forces of evil is far from over, but with each other's support,

As Andrew lands in the secluded forest, he winces in pain as the corrupted influence of the Grimware begins to whisper to him. His mind races with conflicting thoughts and emotions, leaving him feeling both scared and alone.

Andrew: "grimacing" I won't let you take over...I won't.

The Grimware's voice continues to cajole and tempt him, promising power and control at the cost of his own free will. Andrew grits his teeth, trying to resist its pull.

Andrew: "muttering to himself" I can't let it win...I have to stay strong.

As he struggles to resist, he feels a faint glimmer of hope. He remembers the support of his friends and teammates, and the love of his family.

Andrew: "with a steely resolve" They believe in me, and I won't let them

The Grimware's voice becomes louder and more insistent, causing Andrew to wince in pain as it tries to take control of his body.

Grimware: "speaking out loud" You know I can give you everything you've ever wanted. Power, control, the ability to rule over all.

Andrew grits his teeth, trying to push back against the Grimware's seductive words.

Andrew: "with determination" I don't want that kind of power...I don't want to hurt people. I won't become like you.

Grimware: "voice becoming darker" You're weak...too weak to embrace your true potential. You'll never be strong enough to defeat me.

Andrew takes a deep breath, summoning all his willpower to resist the Grimware's corruption. He calls to mind the image of his loved ones, the sound

The Grimware's influence grows stronger, showing Andrew horrifying visions of his loved ones being hurt and killed by his own hands. Andrew gasps in shock and fear as the images play out before him.

Andrew: "terrified" No...I won't let this happen.

The Grimware continues to torment him with these nightmares, hoping to cause him to give into the corruption and embrace its power. But Andrew refuses to give up hope.

Andrew: "clenching his fists" I won't let you win...I can fight this.

Despite the horrifying images, Andrew summons all his strength and begins to fight back against the Grimware's influence. He focuses on the love he has for his friends and family, using it as a source of strength.

Slowly but surely, Andrew begins to feel the Grimware's influence recede. The nightmares fade away, leaving

The Grimware's words cause Andrew's heart to race with fear. He knows that choosing to give in to the entity would mean surrendering his will and free agency, but the thought of his loved ones being in danger is too much to bear. A deep sense of guilt washes over him as he considers the possibility that he may be responsible for their deaths.

Andrew: "voice shaking" I can't let them get hurt...please don't hurt them...

He struggles with what he knows to be right versus what will keep his friends and family safe. The weight of responsibility is heavy on his shoulders.

Andrew: "after a brief pause" Okay...I'll give you most control of my body...just please...don't hurt them.

His voice quavers with an undercurrent of fear and desperation.

The Grimware's response is cold and calculating. Andrew can feel the entity taking control of his body, exerting its will over his own. Despite knowing that he has made a deal with the devil, as it were, he tries to hold on to some sense of control.

Andrew: "struggling against the Grimware's control" I...won't let you...hurt anyone...

But the Grimware's influence is too strong, and Andrew feels himself slipping away into a dark, twisted abyss. He hopes that his loved ones will find a way to stop him before he causes any more harm.

Andrew is horrified as he sees the destruction wrought by the Grimware-controlled form that he is now inhabiting. He no longer feels in control of his own actions, as the entity twists and warps his thoughts, leaving him numb to the destruction he is causing.

But as he catches sight of his loved ones, fear and guilt begin to take root in what remains of Andrew's consciousness. He can see the way they look up at him, their expressions filled with horror and disbelief.

Andrew: "voice slightly cracking" No...what am I doing...

He tries to resist the Grimware's influence, but finds himself powerless against its control. Tears prick at the corners of his eyes as he realizes the magnitude of the destruction he has caused.

Andrew: "voice filled with regret" Please...stop me...

Yes, of course! I can provide dialogue for Team RWBY and Team JNPR. What would you like them to say or discuss?

As Team RWBY and Team JNPR witness the destruction wrought by the Grimware-controlled Andrew, they are shocked and horrified at what they see.

Ruby: What...what is happening?

Weiss: That's...that's Andrew!

Blake: But he's not...he's not acting like himself...

Yang: Something's controlling him. We have to stop it!

Nora: Look! He's causing so much chaos...he's not even holding back!

Ren: He must not realize what he's doing...or he doesn't care.

Pyrrha: We can't just stand here. We have to do something.

As the team watches Andrew rampage through the city, their minds race with fear and uncertainty. They know that they must act quickly if they hope to save both the city and their friend.

As Andrew revels in his newfound power and control over Remnant, Team RWBY and Team JNPR arrive to confront him. Despite his twisted sense of pleasure in his position, he remains cordial in their presence.

Andrew: Ah, welcome, my dear friends! It's good to see you here. What can I get for you?

His words are teasing and disconcerting, as though he is in on some sort of twisted joke. Despite the chaos he has caused, he seems almost...bored.

Ruby: "nervously" Andrew, what's going on? Why are you doing this?

Weiss: This isn't like you. You don't seem to care about what's happening...about what you've done.

Blake: Please, tell us what's going on. We want to help you.

Yang: Yeah, we're here
