Jaune Arc was terrified.
He wasn't quite sure what he had walked in on.
Pyrrha was in some kind of pod, there was another pod with a really messed up girl in it, and cinder was trying to get a shot off on the pods while Ozpin was beating her like a unwanted stepchild (for unknown reasons cinder made a note to torture Jaune later).
And then there was a flash from the pod before it exploded sending shrapnel flying everywhere. Including into cinder.
A light left cinder before flowing into where the pod once was.
Standing there was a girl who was Pyrrha but...not.
The hair was the same deep crimson color but it moved on its own flowing lazily like a campfire.
Her eyes were still green but now he could see a ring of yellow and flecks of brown, reminding him of falling leaves.
And most concerning her armor had melted, but instead of burning her or dripping to the floor it stayed on her like a dress of molten bronze.
She seemed off, like someone just waking up from a long nap.
"Pyrrha?"
She at least responded to her name. Her eyes quickly found his before a storm of emotions seemed to go through them.
Confusion, recognition, fondness, hate, more confusion, horror, sadness.
"Not completely, not anymore."
This was wrong. Something about this is very very wrong.
"Pyrrha I don't know what's going on but I'm sure we can figure this out. You, me, Ren, and Nora."
"It's too much Jaune. Too many embers. There's Pyrrha, Amber, Cinder, and so many others. Ozpins machine woke us all up and we're being blended up. It's scary Jaune, I don't want to disappear!"
She's shaking, the strongest person I know is shaking like a leaf. Ozpin what the hell did you do to my partner?
"Listen. It doesn't matter how much you change or how much you add. You'll always be my partner and we'll always have a place for you. I swear."
The shaking stops but she still looks miserable.
"I have to go. I need to fix myself and hide."
"Hide from what? Ozpin? He should be the one hiding from what I'm going to do to him with Nora's help!"
"There's a bad lady out there Jaune. Worse than cinder and she wants what's in me. I need to go. But I'll be back, when it's safe. When I'm strong enough."
That last bit definitely didn't sound like pyrrha. It almost sounded like cinder. But before I could try to talk her out of leaving she flew up through the roof trailing fire.
My partner was gone and there was only one thing I could do.
I walked over to where the explosion had tossed Ozpin after knocking him out.
And I kicked him in the ribs.
"Wake up. You've got a lot of explaining to do."
