"Stop? Stop!? I finally finished her – I finally ended this nightmare – and you gave her the perfect way out. You've ruined everything!"

Ozpin stormed forward, eyes glowing with eldritch fire. "It was a victory of the highest order and you, in your petty selfishness, have robbed the world of it!"

Shit. He hadn't thought Ozpin would be pleased but this reaction was too much. Jaune staggered to his feet, shaking his head and bringing Crocea Mors up in one hand.
