A/N: I'm so sorry I've been dead or at least this story has. I've been on a huge burnout lately and it's taken me a long hibernation to regenerate my creative writing. But I'm back so let's get to the story.
(Play song at music box scene)
Phyrras pov
I need to find a way to stop him. If I don't he'll kill my team and Ruby's...or worse. I heard mechanical stomping heading our way. Atlas bots had picked up on Y/N's strong Grimm like presence and since the bots think he's a Grimm, they'll treat him like one.
Y/N/Nightmare: Hahahahahah! So the Calvary has arrived. Now we can show true carnage!
Y/N's body began to change. His arms became misty black as if he was becoming a ghost. His eyes were now a fierce blood crimson red. Tendrils began to rip from his back and quickly sprung into a battle stance. His whole appearance was warped. He looked like a demon. Horns and all.
Pure Nightmare: Y/N's GONE! I AM ALL THAT REMAINS!!! I AM PURE NIGHTMARE AND YOU WILL ALL DIE AT MY HANDS!
Y/N ran at me and the others. His tendrils snapping like mouths of Beowulf's looking for prey to snatch and consume. He ran up to Ren and threw him against a tree. He blacked out cold.
Nora: REN NO!
Nora glared at Y/N with fury in her eyes. Funny, never really took Nora for a type to get so angry. But these are different circumstances.
Nora: I'LL KILL YOU!
She began to charge at him with the intent to kill.
Ruby: Nora No!
Ruby grabbed Nora by the arm making Nora lose her balance.
Nora: Ruby what are you doing?!?!
Ruby: I know how to get Y/N to change back to his human form.

Nora: How?
Ruby: You go tend to Ren. I will stop him.
Nora: Hope you know what you're doing Ruby.
Ruby stood front and center. She was roughly 30ft from Y/N.
Ruby: Everyone lower your arms!
I as well as pretty much everyone there were shocked and confused.
Weiss: Are you crazy you dolt?!?!
Ruby: Guys PLEASE! Trust me.
Yang: Do as she says.
Slowly we lowered our weapons. Ruby then threw her Crescent Rose to the ground.
Phyrra: Ruby you need to hurry those Atlas bots will be here soon.
Ruby: Blake do you remember that necklace Y/N gave you?
Blake: Yeah but what does that have to do with this?!
Pure Nightmare: That stupid song won't help here!
Yang: Song? What's he talking about?
Blake: This. This is what he's talking about.
(Music box scene)
Blake opened up her necklace and inside was a small hologram of a music box. Blake pressed a activation button on the back of the necklace and a song began to play. It was sweet,soothing,calming. It felt as if everything chaotic had come to a silent stop and fell asleep to this soft lullaby.
Pure Nightmare: No! Turn that off NOW!!!
Y/N fell to his knees as he clenched on to his head. He began to change back to his old self.
Ruby: Y/N Nightmare or your good Nightmare showed me what you've gone through. It's not your fault. It's ok to feel sad. It's ok to cry. You've gone through so much. Keeping it balled up inside will only make it worse.
Y/N began to change back more. He looked as if he was trying to hold back tears. His grip on his head tightened as he tried to cover his face.
Nightmare/Y/N: SHUT UP!!!!
Blake: I know what happened back then hurt you. I know you've beat yourself up because of what happened back at the village. I'm sorry. I know you are hurting and I'm so sorry. Please let us help you. You don't have to live like this. It doesn't have to be like this.

Nightmare/Y/N: Stop it! Stop! Please just leave me alone!
Phyrra: You're not alone Y/N! I've known you since we were kids. You're such a kind and warm soul. You gave me and my family a roof to live under when we had nowhere to go. You held a massive memorial for when my parents passed away. You've done everything for everyone. You've put them before you. Now let us help you! Please...
I began to walk towards Y/N.
Nightmare/Y/N: AHHHHHHHHHH!
Y/N slammed his fist onto the ground. It began to rain as if on cue. I got back up from the shockwave Y/N had created with his ground slam. He was back to normal. He sat there hands buried in the ground in small craters, head looking down. And then I heard something happen that I've never heard before. I heard a soft cry come from Y/N.
Y/N(shaky voice): I...I want to change.. I-I'm tired of being alone. please don't leave me again...
He began to cry louder. I walked over to him and hugged him. I felt him hug back. All these years I've known him and this is the first time I've seen him cry. He wept into my shoulder I could feel his warm tears mix with the cold rain.
Y/N: you probably think I'm pathetic for just breaking down like this don't you?
I squeezed him tighter.
Phyrra: No. no I don't.
Soon Blake came over and hugged him as well.
Y/N: Can we stay like this for a little while. This is something I haven't done or felt in a long time.
Blake: Sure...sure thing Y/N.
The music box stopped playing and from not to far away I could hear the atlas bots mechanical footsteps walk away. After a while Y/N let go of me and Blake. Funny he looked brighter though the sky was stormy grey and the rain was coming down hard.
Yang: Let's get back to Beacon before we all catch cold.
Juane: Good idea.
Ren: agh...what happened? Why am I all wet?
Y/N: I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?
Ren: I'm fine. But next time we fight please let me know if it's going to rain so I don't wake up soaked.
We all chuckled.
Y/N: I hope it won't happen again,but if it does I will bring a raincoat for you buddy.
Ren: Thanks.
And with that we went back to Beacon. Thank god we stopped that. I'll be honest though I kinda wished Y/N would've held me longer.

Now Dizzy has to be more than he ever thought he could be. Now Dizzy must become an adventurer and fight to free his people.
