A close-up of a pool of black slime in a dark red and purple land. A large paw emerges from within the slime and a Beowolf gradually crawls out, slime sliding off of it and onto the ground.The camera pans out to show several such pools and many Beowolves emerging. It pulls further and further out to show a mostly dark and desolate land made up of red ground, purple crystals, and a red and black clouded sky.

The images shimmers and we see Mercury Black and Emerald Sustrai reflected in a window, watching from inside a high building. Emerald has her hand to her mouth while Mercury seems slightly disgusted. A gloved hand appears between two purple crystal formations and snaps its fingers.

A wide shot reveals a large windowed room, at the center of which is a long purple, crystal table. Four people sit at the table with seven chairs. One of them is Cinder Fall. Emerald and Mercury move away from the window.

There's a close-up of the man sitting across from Cinder, Arthur Watts. He is looking at his Scroll.Next is the man to Cinder's right, Tyrian Callow. He sits in a crouch casually on his chair, resting his arms on his knees.

Across from Tyrian is Hazel Rainart. His arms are crossed, and he looks asleep.

And Standing is XV The Monster watching his Spawn Infect the freshly made Beowolf.

Cinder sits quietly, while Mercury and Emerald move to her side. Emerald nudges Mercury out of her way so that she can be directly next to Cinder.

Watts: Yes, yes, please keep your posse in check.

Mercury grunts and makes a move toward Watts, but Emerald holds him back.

Watts: You hear that? Silence.

Hazel gives Watts an unimpressed sideways glance.

Watts: I've half a mind to thank the little girl that bested you.

Tyrian: If I were you, I'd hunt her down. (snicker) Find her and, well, she took your eye, didn't she?

Cinder only stares at Tyrian while he cackles at her. Cinder tries to speak but only manages to make quiet exhaling noises. Emerald leans in to hear her.

Watts: Pathetic. Why did you even—

There is a sound of a heavy metal door being unlatched. The doors open and everyone stands just before Salem enters. She glides alongside the table with soft footsteps before reaching the head of it, jewels jangling from her hair. Salem stops, facing away from them and toward a candle and crystal display.

Salem: Watts.

Watts straightens, looking toward her.

Salem: (turning) Do you find such malignance necessary?

She gestures for all to sit down.

Watts: I apologize, ma'am. I'm not particularly fond of failure.

XV with the timeskip uses Omega's voices. Though the voice was Horse.

XV: Failure is the path to Succeeding Watts.

Watts and Salem sit simultaneously.

Salem: Then I see no reason for your cruelty towards young Cinder. She's become our Fall Maiden, destroyed Beacon Tower, and most importantly, killed dear Ozpin. So I'm curious, to what failures are you referring?

Watts: Well, Pyrrah has 25% of Ambers powers and Her Brother tore her to  this

.

Hazel: Yes. We've dealt with their kind before. How is it a novice was able to best one of us?

XV: Askad is Resourceful. Though with this Level I am surprised he was able to Watts look like a novice. 

Watts: My thoughts exactly. Even without her new power, it should have been effortless.

Salem: It is because of the Maiden's power. Make no mistake, Cinder, you hold the key to our victory. But your newfound strength brings with it a crippling weakness. Which is why you will remain by my side as we continue your treatment.

Cinder is unhappy about this and lowers her head. Emerald looks at her in sympathy.

Salem: Dr. Watts, you are to take Cinder's place and meet with our informant in Mistral.

Watts: Very good.

Salem: Tyrian, I want you to continue your hunt for the Spring Maiden.

Tyrian: (laughing) Gladly.

Salem: And Hazel, I'm sending you to the leader of the White Fang. Adam Taurus has arranged the meeting. The boy continues to prove loyal. Ensure that Sienna Khan feels the same.

Hazel: As you wish.

Cinder raises a finger. Emerald fails to notice this gesture for a moment.

Emerald: Oh!

Emerald leans in to hear her.

Cinder rasps into her ear. Emerald straightens.

Salem: Speak, child.

Emerald: She wants to know... (hesitates) What about the girl?

Watts: (scoffs) What about her? Seems to me that this is Cinder's problem, not ours.

Cinder slams her fist onto the table and glares at Watts, who grins at her.

Salem: That's enough. Tyrian?

Tyrian: Yes, my lady?

Salem: Spring can wait. Find the girl that did this to Cinder.

Tyrian giggles elatedly and claps.

Salem: And bring her to me.

Tyrian freezes, groans disappointedly, pouts for a second, then looks back up at Salem with an acquiescent shrug.

Salem: Because of your efforts, Beacon has fallen. And Haven will be next.

Everyone rises.

Tyrian snickers at Cinder and points to his left eye.

Tyrian: (laughing wickedly) Eye for an eye.

Tyrian goes into an uncontrollable fit of manic laughter, while Cinder grits her teeth.

XV: I will see how my super infected are doing.

XV then leaves to Check on The Super infected. These infected at Grimm That Salem Enhanced with her magic to give extra Grimm parts to. Then XV infected them with the Virus.

Oscar Pine, a boy with freckles and hazel eyes, wakes up in a panic and sighs in relief after looking around. He emerges from the loft of a barn and climbs down a ladder. The boy is wearing patched khaki pants, a white shirt, and orange suspenders and gloves. Tucked into his pocket is an orange-based multi-colored cloth. He opens the barn door to a peaceful country scene with a rising sun and birds tweeting. White mountains are a background to a dirt road, grass, a few trees and a green water pump.

He smiles and pumps water into a blue bucket. As his gaze wanders the landscape, he becomes distracted from the pump and utters a quiet sound of surprise upon realizing he has overfilled the bucket. His shoulders fall with a sigh.

The scene cuts to the boy shutting and turning a green compost tumbler that is marked with a yellow crown bearing the initials CK.

While hoeing rows in a garden, he suddenly straightens up and looks out into the distance.To the sound of blowing wind, the scene cuts to a shot of blue sky above a green forest. There are a few shots inside the forest before Nora Valkyrie is heard speaking.

Nora: I'm just sayin'...

Xero: it's Stupid. All of that shit is Stupid. 

Nora, Lie Ren, Eve and Xero emerge from behind a tree, walking together.

Nora:...there's more members of JNPR in this team than RWBY. It just makes sense to go with that one.

Ren: But "junior" isn't a color.

Xero: ya.

Nora: (groaning) How can I be more clear?

Eve: Are you three really auguring about this.

Nora puts out her hands and the letters JNRR pop into existence. She points to the first three.

Nora: One, two, three. That's more than one.

She points to the R.

Ren: But we're helping Ruby with her objective.

Ren holds out his hand and the letters RNJR pop into existence. Behind him, Jaune Arc is crouched and watching something.

Ren: (pointing to the first R) Wouldn't that make her the leader?

Pyrrha: What the.

Eve: I don't even know

Jaune: Guys!

Ren and Nora turn their heads toward him.

Jaune: We need to focus.

The letters pop out of existence.

Jaune: Also, JNRR is way cooler.

Xero: YOUR FUCKING WRONG!

Nora: Exactly!

Xero: GO FUCK YOURSELF!

Ren goes to speak, but instead just groans.

There's a rumble.

Jaune: It's here.

Pyrrha: Ok Here we go.

Scene changes to Ruby Rose flying backwards from trees, firing Crescent Rose in the direction she came from.

A collection of floating boulders with a Grimm mask moves the trees aside, clearly chasing her.Ruby falls, crashing against tree limbs along the way.

Ruby: Bad... landing... strategy!

Ruby lands on her feet on a big tree branch strong enough to hold her weight. She uses her Semblance to fly past the Grimm.

Jaune, Ren, Nora, Pyrrha, Eve and Xero look up.

Jaune: Let's get that thing off her.

Xero: Gotcha ya (summons Aeroblade) Let's rock

Eve giggles before grabbing her guns and Loading in Non-elemental dust rounds. Eve then grabs Xero's Han and Xero Uses Blur

Jaune runs toward them. Ren jumps up into the trees.

Nora: Don't forget me!

Nora pulls out Magnhild and shoots it at the ground, propelling herself into the air with excited whooping. She lands right besides Ren in his branch.

Ren: We need to draw its attention away from Ruby!

As a stream of rose petals, Ruby flies past them. Xero the drops Eve to a safe place before blurring at the Grimm 

Ruby: Could use some help!

Nora shoots the Grimm in the back. Xero Then Enters With the Grimm Striking. It's ineffective. Xero then slices with the wind cuts on the rock. it's cuts but the rock still stands

Jaune: Got to get in closer!

Ren and Xero lands beside Jaune.

Ren: Sharp Melee isn't effective 

Xero: I know. Go Range.

The Grimm turns, standing upright. Xero then Summons Light arrow and fires off his Arrows on the the Grimm

Nora: Crap!

Ruby: How about this?!

She loads a magazine with an image of a lightning bolt on its side into Crescent Rose and fires. Electric bolts encase one of the Grimm's arms. The red lines on the arm glow brighter, and the Grimm slams it into the ground. All are sent flying backwards, but Ren, Nora, and Ruby manage to land on their feet. Jaune tumbles along the ground painfully until he hits a boulder between his legs and falls forward.

Jaune: (mimicking) "You'll be fine without a weapon. You're the strategist."

Pyrrha: At least your trying.

Nora: That's it!

She runs forward, tossing Magnhild into the air and transforming it into hammer mode. She jumps into the air and hits it, breaking its arm apart. A large piece flies straight toward Nora, but Ruby gets between them and knocks it away. The Grimm uses its other arm to strike at the two girls.

Jaune straightens and stretches and soon has to dodge a barrage of rocks.

Jaune: Wha? Whoa! Wha? Ho!

Jaune lands.

Jaune: Hey! Be careful!

A rock the size of his head hits him in the face and sends him into a tree. Jaune lands in a crouch and shakes his head to clear the pain. Xero also Grabs his Crotch feeling the blond guys pain

The Grimm continually tries and fails to hit an evasive Nora.

Jaune stands up and looks up at the Grimm.

Jaune: Ah...

The Grimm's armless shoulder gains a glowing red circle with a symbol of an eye in the middle. The circle spins, and then a black, elongated arm with clawed fingers emerges from it. The arm rears back.

Jaune: Uh-oh.

The Grimm shoves its new arm into the tree Jaune was leaning against and lifts it from the ground.

Jaune: (running) His arm is a tree! His arm is a tree!

Ruby: Big mistake!

Ruby spins Crescent Rose and loads another magazine into it - this one with imagery of fire on its side. She fires, and the flaming projectile swings around to the tree arm. Jaune fist pumps. The tree arm swings around to him, on fire. Jaune loses his smile.

Jaune: (putting his hands into his hair and running) Big mistake!

Xero jumps in the air And summons a Black and dark purple blooded Red Fang and strikes with the Blood energy blade before striking with the second ability moving it off balance. Eve then Fires her revolvers with the dust before swappign to the new Dust type made By Omega. Expolsive dust. She loads them in and fires them off. taking chunks off her rocks.

Jaune: Okay, how do we do this?

Ren: His body is too thick to break through.

Jaune: It doesn't care about its body.

Nora: Plus it can keep grabbing new limbs!

Jaune: But it keeps protecting its face.

Ruby: We can't break it!

Jaune: Ugh, if we knocked all of its limbs off at once and went for the...

Jaune's eyes light up with an idea and he turns to face his team. Behind him, the Grimm gets up as Eve Jumps off. Lands to Xero

Jaune: Guys, I got it! We hit it harder!

Ren: (confused) Is that it

Eve: Hit it harder.

Jaune: No, seriously. It's trying to keep us from its face. If we kill the limbs, we'll have a shot to kill the whole thing!

Eve: I see

Ruby: Alright! Come on, team, let's do this.

Xero: Ok

Nora: Yeah!

Ren: Right!

Jaune: Ren, left. Ruby, right.

Ren and Ruby depart as told.

Jaune: Nora, ready to try out the new upgrade?

Nora nods and runs.

Jaune: Right. And I will—

Jaune was about to get hit by the Grimm But Xero uses Red Fang at to block it.

Xero: GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY!

Ruby attacks the right side. Ren attacks the left.

Nora activates a mechanism that generates a current of electricity across the hammerhead of Magnhild. Jaune runs around to make himself a target, waving at the Grimm.

Jaune: I'll take over here!

The Grimm goes after Jaune but switches targets as Ruby and Ren attack it.

Nora charges Magnhild even more and braces her feet.

Nora: Ready!

Ruby lands next to Jaune after another attack.

Jaune: Use everything you've got!

Xero: Ok. 

Ruby uses her Semblance to fly at the Grimm, taking Nora and Xero with her, and the red, pink and Blue Rose petals swirls go right for the tree arm. Ruby slices the tree in half, opening the way for Nora and Xero to hit the mask with Magnhild and Red Fang. The rock body shatters and the ephemeral Grimm rises out of it and flies off.

Ruby aims a shot at it, and it turns its face right into the flaming projectile. Next is a wide shot of birds taking flight from trees.

Jaune: Good Job team

Xero: HELL YA!

Ruby shakes hands with the town Mayor.

Mayor: We truly can't thank you enough.

Ruby: Just doing our job, sir.

Mayor: That Geist had been plaguing our village for weeks. We were beginning to wonder if we'd have to relocate.

Ruby: Well, we are on our way to Mistral. You could always come along with us if you don't feel safe.

Xero: Here. (tosses the Mayor an M-Borf Beacon) Use this and M-Borf Robots will Help you.

Mayor: ok.

Scenes of the idyllic life in the village are shown: people buy fresh produce from a cart, stand and chat on open balconies overlooking the roads, tend to their horses and generally go about their daily lives peacefully. The village has plentiful trees and green spaces and cobbled roads.Mayor: (amused) Ha. I take it you're not from these parts. Anima is a large continent. I'm afraid our people would never survive the long trek to Mistral. It may be safer in the Kingdoms, but we prefer our way of life. I just wish we could pay you more.

Ren: Our previous arrangement is more than sufficient.

The Team bows respectfully.

A shop door closes. At a counter, a burly man with horns sets down a set of armor.

Blacksmith: There you go, son. It's going to be heavier than what you're used to, but you'll thank me the next time you go up against a set of claws.

Xero smiles at the Blacksmith. With him He was able to make Slicer

Jaune: Wow. That-eh. I don't know what to say.

Blacksmith: Don't gotta say anything! Just put it on! I'll go get the rest.

The Faunus blacksmith turns and goes out back.

Nora: So, what are you waiting for?

Jaune: Oh, uh, right!

Jaune takes off his old chestplate.

Jaune: (softly) Guess I was going to grow out of it eventually.

Xero: Ya.

Ren: A sign of progress.

Pyrrha: Yep

Jaune: Progress.

Jaune turns around, and Ruby gasps then covers her mouth and tries not to giggle. Xero Smirks and looks away. Eve trying not to giggle, She was a light hearted girl. 

Jaune: What is it?

Ruby: (pointing to his chest) What is that?

A bunny emblem is on Jaune's chest.

Jaune: What, my hoodie? I've always had this.

Xero: Dude Your Symbol is a a double slash or two arcs. Not a bunny.

Ruby: (snorting) It's got a cute little bunny rabbit!

Ruby laughs.

Jaune: It's Pumpkin Pete! You know, from the cereal?

Ruby: (in near hysterics) What did you do?! Send in a box top for a prize?

Jaune: (turning away) Yeah! Fifty!

Ruby continues to laugh hysterically, her head stylistically expanding, before she falls onto the floor. Pyrrha Then cover sher mouth and Snickers

Ren: Well, I suppose we don't have to grow out of everything.

Xero: ya.

Eve: Agreed

Pyrrha: Here here.

Ruby chortles from the floor, feet in the air. The blacksmith returns from out back.

Blacksmith: Made all the modifications you asked for.

The blade expands into a shield.

Blacksmith: That was some fine metal you brought me. Accents the white nicely. Where'd you get it from?

Xero salutes And the blacksmith smiles.

Blacksmith: He cleans up alright, don't you think?

Ren: He certainly does.

Nora: I still think a grenade launcher would've really brought the look together.

Xero: Crossbow dude.

Nora: Why do you say that.

Xero: My light arrow looks like something an alien would use and is also a Bow with energy like arrows

Nora then rolls her eyes and smiles.

Ren: We've heard the next village over has a working Airship.

Xero: I'll do it. (grabs his scroll)

Jaune: Food?

Nora: Check!

Jaune: Water?

Nora: Check!

Jaune: How about ammo?

Nora: Locked and loaded! Thank you, Schnee Dust Company and Big brother!

Xero: Ya. Thank you Omega.

Jaune: Got the map?

Xero: Yes. I got it. (shows the Map) And If anything the scroll has the GPS

(At Atlas)

As the camera cuts to airships in the sky, Weiss Schnee's reflection becomes visible watching airships fly by through a window. She is sitting in a cushioned chair with her hands folded in her lap. There is a knock on the door.

Weiss: Yes?

A wide shot of the room reveals a large, open space on two levels. On the upper level are two arched bookcases built into the walls and a picture of a knight resembling the Arma Gigas hangs between them. A gilded mirror hangs above the mantle of a fireplace on the lower level. The door opens and Klein Sieben, a butler, enters.

Klein: Pardon the interruption, Miss Schnee, but your father wishes to speak to you.

Weiss: (sighing) Thank you, Klein.

Weiss looks out the window once more before getting up and walking out. Her heels clank across the floor and the door slams shut
