57 Chapter 56: Harvest Moon

Scarlet had watched Pyrrha's growth from time to time as Watts worked on trying to get her complete. However, Scarlet did notice one thing about the broken moon in the sky. The moon was orange, which gave her an idea.

"Arthur." Scarlet said as she glanced to him. "The Harvest Moon is happening...I think it would be a perfect birth for Grimm Pyrrha, wouldn't you agree?"

Watts looked at Scarlet, and then towards the moon. "Interesting idea, however. There's a few flaws with that idea." He looked back at Scarlet. "We can't just simply let her out and expect her to know everything."

Scarlet glared at him. "Did I stutter?" She walked over to him and grabbed Watt's by the neck. "Or do I have to remind you who you're working for Arthur?"

Watts gagged as he was gasping for air, he tapped Scarlet's hand as he felt her let go. He rubbed his neck and coughed. "R-Right, sorry..." He looked back at Pyrrha's chamber as he began typing. "I'll see what I can do, but don't expect her to be ready for combat right away."

"Fine." Scarlet said. "I expect nothing less from her when she's out." She turned around and walked out of the lab.

Scarlet walked into another room that contained Grimm, she noticed the minotaur Grimm. A sinister grin appeared across Scarlet's face. "I think it's time I send an army of Grimm to Shade academy."

The harvest moon shined down upon everything, as the new Grimm types came out of the building. Scarlet was leading them out as she stopped, she glanced around at the Grimm as she snickered.

"It's time to send the army to Vacuo." Scarlet said as she turned to look at the Grimm. "I want all of you to proceed to Vacuo, and invade Shade academy. Until I get there, I want you the slaughter ever single person."

The Grimm looked at each other as they looked back at Scarlet, obeying what they were told. Eventually Watts had shown up as he looked at Scarlet. "She's almost finished, question is. Do you want a ship prepared for departure to Vacuo?"

Scarlet glanced over to him as she crossed her arms. "There won't be any need for a ship..did you forgot I can fly?" She pointed to her Nevermore wings as she smirked. "Besides...Pyrrha's going to be part Grimm, the Wyvern. Sure it was defeated by Ruby's silver eyes, that doesn't mean we couldn't have any of the DNA on hand."

Watts looked at her still as he let out a sigh. "That is true, unlike you. Ms. Niko's is going to be half Grimm, mainly on her body. Since the other half of her body will be well, human."

"Perfect, the more her Grimm side shows. The more she won't be able to resist obeying me." Scarlet said.

Watts would lightly nod. "That is indeed true."

~~~

It was time, Pyrrha was complete. Scarlet watched the chamber drain of the fluids, Watts had taken Pyrrha out of the chamber as the Grimm girl started to open her eyes slowly.

"Welcome back Pyrrha." Scarlet spoke in a motherly tone. "I'm sure you have a lot of questions."

Pyrrha glanced up as she tilted her head up to get a better look, her vision was a little blurry considering she was just brought back to life, but with some slight changes.

Scarlet walked over and knelt down, she tilted Pyrrha's head up a little bit more with her hand as she held her chin. "I will answer any question you have."

Pyrrha stared into Scarlet's eyes seeing her reflection, she was silent as she saw what she'd became. "W-What happened?"

Scarlet smirked as she had let go of Pyrrha's chin. "You died by Cinder's hands..but I managed to retrieve what remained of you, and brought you back to the living." She stood up as she walked around Pyrrha. "You're a Grimm now Nikos...you're my kin now."

"Your...kin?" Pyrrha asked.

Scarlet would nod as she stopped. "You want revenge don't you? Everyone has forgotten you as well, why don't you make them remember?"

"T-They forgot? About me...?" Pyrrha asked. "W-What do you mean?"

Scarlet snickered a little. "Everyone forgot you existed..expect for me Pyrrha, everyone went on their merry ways and wanted to find the relics, to find answers...all while forgetting about you." She looked over to Pyrrha as she walked behind her and leaned over. "And they never made a memorial site for you. I however, wanted to see you again. And now here you are, back to the world of the living. Part of my kin."

Pyrrha looked over her shoulder at Scarlet, which she could soon tell that her Grimm side was taking control. "Does that mean...we're related then?"

"Of course." Scarlet said with a motherly tone. "We're related Nikos."

Pyrrha started to stand up as she looked at Scarlet, she didn't really know too much about her being a clone of Ruby. Scarlet however stood there, she placed a hand onto Pyrrha's shoulder as she walked with her out of the building. "It's time to begin your first mission Pyrrha."
