Yo Peeps, GMG here with chapter 11 of SSO, the last for this fic sadly. On the bright side, it will continue into chapter nine or ten of Bloodstained Chess Board 2. So read those if you wanted to continue this story line! After that story I'll come back to this one! Now to end it for this installment.

Disclaimer: I don't own RWBY.

Ozpin smiled to himself as he sipped on his drink. Everything resolved rather well, despite what others thought. The figurehead of the enemies was taken from the game, earning Roman Torchwick a pardon of sorts for his crimes. He returned what was stolen and paid back everyone using funds from the White Fang, unknown to the organization. This crippled them too, shrinking them to just a nuisance for now. It'd be awhile until they'd pose a threat once more.

Team RWBY were revered as heroes for their actions, laughable considering that all they did was hook up with some chicks (except Weiss.). Yang was still hospitalized for the damage to her head, but she would be released soon enough. It was only a matter of time.

Looking at the board in front of him, he furrowed his brow. Contemplating the layout carefully, he finally reached forward and moved a piece, glancing over to his opponent. "Your move, Roman."

Sat across from the headmaster was the former convict, a smile on his face. "Very well, Ozpin." He made a move with out a second thought. "Checkmate."

The headmaster sighed and conceded. "That's the seventh time today."

Roman patted his shoulder. "No need to be so down, Oz. I was raised on this game." He made a vague flourish with his free hand. "Be the chess board."

Ozpin nodded before reaching to organize a pile of papers beside him. One cut him, causing to hiss lightly as blood pooled around the cut. He yanked his hand back reflexively, a drop of blood spattering on the chess board.

As it hit, a knock came at the door.

Yang sat up in her bed, light filtering in through the window. Blinking her bleary eyes, she swiveled her head around to take a look at the room. To her shock, her visitor wasn't one of her teammates. Instead a woman in a red dress with her arms in casts sat asleep in a chair. The blonde was going to allow her to sleep, but her body had other ideas... Yawning for example. The loud sound woke the woman and golden eyes opened. Yang thought them to be the most beautiful she had seen and eerily familiar. Like someone she knew.

The woman looked at the blonde and gasped. "Yang."

The brawler nodded. "That's me." Smiling congenially towards huge stranger, she asked. "Can I have your name, ma'am?"

The woman looked down. "So she was right." She muttered quietly before answering. "Cinder Fall."

"Strange." Said Yang. "My team said something about a chick with the same name being my girlfriend, but I don't remember having a girlfriend."

The sorceress shifted uncomfortably. "Would you believe me if I verified the truth of that statement?"

Lilac eyes widened. "They weren't kidding?"

Cinder sighed sadly. "I was your girlfriend, though I certainly don't deserve you for what I've done."

"What you did?"

"Yes." She replied, tears misting in her golden eyes. "I put you in this state. It's something I regret now. After everything was laid out for me."

The blonde didn't react like Cinder thought she would. The teen merely asked. "Why?"

"Because I thought you had used me." She said. "I thought you stole my heart just turn it around on me and destroy me." A bitter laugh sounded from her. "I guess my paranoia as a villain got to the best of me. I thought you only seduced me to stop my plans. How wrong I was."

Yang shrugged. "Can't say I blame you for beating the stuffing out of me. I'd do the same thing if someone was playing with my heart." She beamed at Cinder. "I forgive you."

Gold eyes widened. "Why?"

"Because I can get where you were coming from." She held her hand out. "We could always start over."

The woman nodded and took Yang's hand. "I'd like that."

"You want what, why?" Asked a skeptical Ozpin, looking at the teen before him. A single onyx eye staring back.

Fixing his iconic jacket, the boy sighed. "I need Team RWBY as well as a few others for help with an issue in an alternate version of this realm."

Roman cut in. "And pray tell why should we believe that you aren't off your rocker?" A poke on his shoulder caused him to turn to see... Nothing?"

"Because I am not one to make ludicrous claims with out a real need." The teen said. "I am Tyson Graywall, as I said earlier, but if I may add my title. I am the GateMaster."

Ozpin clasped his hands together. "What does your plan entail?"

Tyson shrugged. "I need to have all my pieces to know how to play the game ahead of me."

"And who else is involved in your plan?" The headmaster asked.

Tyson pointed at the ex-con. "Roman, Emerald, and this realm's Cinder."

Mr. Bowler hat spoke up. "Two questions. Why me? And why Cinder?"

Tyson smirked, though his mask hid it. "Because who knows them self better than that person. You exist their as well." He chuckled. "As for Cinder, a similar reason. She may be crippled here, but she could still identify any weaknesses she has."

"Cinder may be unwise, given the tension between her and Team RWBY." Ozpin pointed out.

The teen waved him off. "Taken care of. Yang has forgiven her, earlier in the morning." He shrugged. "They're back to friends even after Yang learned why Cinder did what she did."

"Wait a second." Interjected Roman. "Wouldn't me meeting me create a paradox or something like that?"

Tyson laughed a that. "Fat chance. We're talking about alternate realities, not time travel. You two meeting doesn't change the past or future, just the events in the present."

Contemplating the stranger's story, Ozpin nodded. "I will allow you to hire Team RWBY. You must handle the others."

Tyson nodded. "Understood." He looked at the ex-con. "What say you?"

Roman shrugged. "A chance to fight myself? Eh, why not?" He gave the teen a thumbs up. "I'll go along.

Ruby, Weiss, Blake, and Emerald bustled about, packing for their next mission. They were told to be ready for a longer mission and to be accepting of the information the client supplied. The door opened and they glanced over to see two people walk in. Yang was first, looking brand spanking new, followed by Cinder. Before they could attack, Yang stepped forward.

"Don't hurt her." The blonde said. "She explained everything she did and why and I forgave her."

Weiss flipped. "She put you in a hospital Xiao Long!"

"Because she thought I was using her." The blonde pointed out. "I would've left someone in the same state if I thought so too."

Emerald eyed Cinder. "I still say that you don't deserve her."

The sorceress nodded sadly. "I agree. I don't."

Before more could be said, Roman waltzed in, singing 'Let's Do The Time Warp Again' loudly. He did spin before bowing, holding his cane behind him. "Hello ladies." He turned to Weiss. "Ice Queen."

"Hey."

He straightened. "I just thought you'd like to know what our mission is."

"What do you mean?" Asked Blake. "You're joining us?"

"Not just me." He replied. "Everyone present."

Ruby cocked her head to the side. "Really?"

"Absolutely." Said a new voice. Tyson appeared, falling from the ceiling and landing in the middle of the group. "I'm Tyson Graywall, your client."

The caped leader jumped up and bounced in excitement. "What's the mission?"

Tyson grinned. "I'll tell you when we get there."

End...

And thus SSO ends. I will be pulling BCB from hiatus and will work on that soon. Let the insanity begin. As I have begun to do, let me clarify that Tyson Graywall is an OC, not a self-insert. I understand why anyone would think so, being "named after my username" and whatnot. The funny thing is that it's the other way around. Tyson came first, my penname second. So, now you know. Adieu for now.
