9 The Dark Witch (2/2)

Emerald holds back her tears and runs away, she bolts past Mercury on the way, he was leaning cooly back against the wall and eating dumplings without a damn care in the world. ”Tch.Mommy issues.” He shook his head.

-------------------------

”Come forth Cinder and show me the boy.” Demands Salem, her powerful sinister voice had awoken Shadow. ”Where am I?” His vision was blurry as he looked around his surroundings. Then he saw a moon-white humanoid being dress in a black and red robe walking towards his way. Her dark aura was suffocating him, he could barely breathe as he held on to his neck.

When Salem saw Shadow's face up close her, a sudden burst of rage, burning anger, and pint up past memories exploded out from her mind, the whole castle chamber room crumbled and shattered. Salem stopped the large rocks and bricks mid-air with her semblance, she almost killed herself and Cinder as well, in fact, she was close to killing everyone in the castle. Being the advocate of controlling one's anger was slowly fading away from her leader imagine. But who could blame her? A younger version of Ozpin was right in front of her very eyes. He was the one man she hated most in the world. No amount of hate could dare match Salem's raw hatred for Ozpin and humanity.

”Is something wrong? You almost killed me!” Cinder was in shock of Salems actions, she had never seen the fearsome Dark Witch herself lose her composer so easily. Her stoic and calm behavior vanished the moment she had seen Shadow.

”Get out him of my sight and feed him to the Grimm, actually... I have a better idea.” Salem has a dark grin on her face, ” Cinder I want you to train the boy.”

”What!? I don't have time to babysit this boy!” Cinder is ferocious and drops Shadow on his face again. ”Dammit when I get my powers back, the first person I am going to kill is this bitch,” Shadow clenches his fist as he looked at Cinder with a killer instinct.

”You will do as I told! Do not disappointment me Cinder. I expect many great things from you. But if you fail to meet my expectations, then you will be long dead before you can even accept your fruitless failures.” Salem turns her back on Cinder and floats over back to her throne.

Cinder glares down at Shadow, her amber eyes were covered in flames. ”I hate you.”

”Same here. Bitch.” He replied.
