[RWBY Volume 5 opening - Triumph]

Back to the fairy tale, back to the show,

Back to the wall and there's nowhere to go,

Hopeless and desperate, all paths adverse,

Things lookin' bleak and they're bound to get worse,

Helpless and doomed and there's no way to win,

Goals unachievable, faith running thin, Helpless and doomed and there's no way to win,

Goals unachievable, faith running thin,

Lost and forlorn impossible odds,

That's when you'll learn you've been messing with gods,

Send in your Grimm, tear off my limb

Strike me with bolts of lightning

I

I Won't

I Won't Die

The battle seems unwinnable,

but all we need's a miracle,

We're going up, we'll never be denied!

Can't wish away the dismal days, can't bring back what is gone,

won't waste more tears on yesteryears, instead we'll carry on

(Carry on)

We'll live for sure, we will endure, and though our goal is far,

We'll be the ones to touch the sun,

The Triumph

The Triumph Will

The Triumph Will Be

The Triumph Will Be Ours

Okay.

Are you ready?

I beat up on giant monsters and robots more than once,

I think I can handle getting a few signatures.

Your chieftain needs you!

Your people need you!

Please, join the fight and help us save Haven Academy!

Are you kidding me?

We�d love to have someone with your skills on our side!

Mata!

Get back inside.

Mom!

You�re not going anywhere!

I don�t get it!

How can they just sit around and do nothing with the White Fang getting ready to attack?!

Because not everyone is like you and me.

The Faunus here in Menagerie - the ones that weren�t born on the island -

moved here because they were tired of fighting, of having to struggle constantly.

Menagerie is filled with people that just want to be left alone,

and here we are, asking them to put the rest of the world before themselves.

I guess I never really thought about it like that.

The problem is,

whatever happens at Haven is going to affect them whether they like it or not.

If Adam gets his way and Haven falls,

it�s only going to make things worse for the Faunus. Everywhere.

Adam...

He�s the guy you used to...

Work with?

Yes.

Sorry, forget I brought it up.

No, it�s okay.

Have you ever met someone and thought to yourself,

�They are the personification of this word.�

Uhhhh...

Okay, well, I remember getting to know Ruby and thinking,

�This girl is the embodiment of 'purity.'�

After a while, I saw Weiss was �defiance.�

And Yang was �strength.�

What am I?

Jury�s still out on that one,

but I�m leaning towards �earnest.�

Ah!

At first I thought Adam was �justice,�

then I thought he was �passion.�

But over time, I realized I was wrong.

He wasn�t any of those things.

He was �spite.�

Not �hatred�, not �rage�, �spite.�

He won�t accept equality, only suffering for what he feels the world did to him,

and his way of thinking is dangerously contagious.

That�s what worries me about Ilia.

She�s not like Adam, not yet at least,

but I don�t know how long that will last.

She was your friend, huh?

She was.

Her chameleon traits meant she could pass as human.

She could�ve lived a normal life if she wanted, Her chameleon traits meant she could pass as human.

She could�ve lived a normal life if she wanted,

but she didn�t.

I always admired that.

She lost her family in a mining accident when she was young,

and she joined the White Fang.

Like me, she was more or less trained on the road alongside other Faunus.

She learned to survive, to defend herself,

but as people like Sienna and Adam started to gain a following,

she became more dangerous.

I guess I did too.

My parents tried to get me to leave with them, but I refused.

I had Adam and Ilia, after all.

You know we�re going to have to face her eventually.

I know.

So, what are you going to do?

I�m going to try and help her the way you helped me.

Hm?

You showed me that sometimes you need to be there for a friend,

even when they don�t want you to be.

I was drowning in guilt and fear,

I tried to push you away, but you didn�t give up on me.

And I can�t give up on Ilia.

It�s about time I saved my friends for once.

You�re really getting better, huh?

Are you hungry? It�s almost dinnertime.

Uh, yeah. That sounds good.

I was about to call it a night anyway.

So, you�ve never fought before?

Just the occasional small Grimm.

Nothing like this, though.

Wow. Heh.

You look like a natural. Wow. Heh.

You look like a natural.

It�s strange,

I've only had this cane for a few weeks, but...

I feel like I�ve had it for a lifetime.

Longer, even.

I sound like a crazy person...

I mean, uh, yeah, just a little.

But at this pace, you�ll be combat ready in no time!

Uh...

Well, uh, I'll see you upstairs.

How do you handle all of this?

What do you mean?

I�m... scared.

I�m more scared than I�ve ever been in my life,

than I ever thought was possible.

I always knew that I wanted to be more than a farmhand, but this?

Who would ask for this?

We all went to Beacon because we wanted to help people.

But, you�re right.

None of us asked for this either.

We just have to press on and-

How can you be so confident?!

People have tried to kill you!

The world�s about to go to war all over again!

How are you okay with any of this?!

When Beacon fell, I lost two of my friends:

Penny Polendina and Pyrrha Nikos.

I didn�t know them for very long but,

that doesn�t change the fact that they were two of the most kind-hearted people I have ever met.

But that didn�t save them.

Pyrrha thought that if there was even the smallest chance of helping someone,

then it was a chance worth taking.

And because of that,

she died fighting a battle she knew she couldn�t win.

And Penny...

was killed... And Penny...

was killed...

just to make a statement.

I�m...

Sorry.

I am scared,

but not just for me.

What happened at Beacon shows that Salem doesn�t care if you�re standing against her or not.

She�ll kill anybody, and that scares me most of all.

Pyrrha... Penny...

I�d be lying if I said that it didn�t hurt,

that I didn�t think about them every day since I lost them,

that I didn�t wish I had spent more time with them.

If it had been me instead, I know they would have kept fighting too,

no matter how dangerous it was.

So that�s what I choose to do;

To keep moving forward.

C�mon, if we don�t hurry,

Nora�s gonna eat everything. C�mon, if we don�t hurry,

Nora�s gonna eat everything.

It wouldn�t be the first time.

Hey, Oscar?

This isn�t gonna be easy,

but the fact that you�re even trying says a lot about you.

You�re braver than you think.

She really is remarkable, isn�t she?

Yeah.

She must�ve been one of the best Huntresses at Beacon, huh?

In some ways, yes.

But in many others... no.

She has her quirks, her faults, just like everyone else.

But she also possesses something unquantifiable: a spark,

that can inspire others even in the darkest of times.

This must be really hard on her too.

It most assuredly is.

Your thoughts?

Are of no significance.

If this is how High Leader Taurus wishes to proceed,

then we shall make it so.

Of course, brother. Still...

Come in.

Sister Ilia, thank you for meeting with us.

How may I be of assistance?

Please, stand.

We have wonderful news.

What is it?

We finally received a message from the Mistral brotherhood;

The operation was a success.

Adam Taurus has claimed his place as the High Leader of the White Fang. The operation was a success.

Adam Taurus has claimed his place as the High Leader of the White Fang.

Good.

And... Sienna?

Buried� with honor.

The other branches of the Fang have been given the story that was agreed upon.

A necessary sacrifice.

We won�t forget everything she did for us. A necessary sacrifice.

We won�t forget everything she did for us.

Indeed.

Your maturity and understanding in regards to this matter is appreciated,

and it is why we�ve summoned you here this evening.

The White Fang is experiencing...

a transitional period.

Growth requires change.

And change can be painful.

If it�s for the betterment of the Faunus, then...

it�s a pain we can endure.

What�s our next mission?

Containment.

With the CCT towers still inoperable,

we have the luxury of control over the flow of information.

News of Adam�s ascension has yet to reach Menagerie, we have the luxury of control over the flow of information.

News of Adam�s ascension has yet to reach Menagerie,

but when it does,

the citizens of Kuo Kuana will undoubtedly react poorly now that the chieftain has spoken out against us.

It�s my fault the Belladonnas had any ground to stand on.

Do not concern yourself with past failures, Ilia.

Focus on the future.

We have an opportunity for redemption.

What do you need me to do?

The Belladonnas are the only remaining threat to Adam�s assault on Haven Academy.

And so,

they must be silenced...

S-Silenced?

Like Sienna. They stand in the way of true progress for our people.

We would never put such a burden on you alone, of course.

Your brothers and sisters will be at your side,

but your relationship with their daughter makes you an integral part of this operation.

Blake?

We know how close you were with young Blake.

Rest assured, High Leader Taurus has requested she be taken alive,

but we cannot risk having her present to defend her family.

But, the people of Menagerie-

-will come to understand what happens to those who speak out against the White Fang.

And will be left without a leader until our victory is complete.

A necessary sacrifice, Sister Ilia.

She�s right to worry about the citizens.

It�s possible they may come to see Ghira as a martyr.

It is a risk we must take for our High Leader.

I will not allow them to ruin this!

The Belladonna name has brought me nothing but grief!

You�ve done well in finding the deserter.

Bring her to me, alive.

But not before you�ve slaughtered her family.

I have a promise to keep...

He seems... unwell.

He carries with him a tremendous burden.

Are we sure he is the one to lead us?

For now.

We must do what is best for the Faunus.

Yes?

Brother Yuma.

Did you see to Ghira�s messenger?

He rests beneath the waves...

along with his warning.

Then all is well.
