a view of Oscar's aunt's farm at sunrise, then cuts to the interior of Oscar Pine's bedroom where he is staring at a packed, green backpack on his bed. He looks toward the window. His fingers tense for a moment. Cut to Oscar, now wearing the backpack, walking along a dirt road away from the farm. He stops and looks over his shoulder, then faces forward, adjusts the backpack and resumes walking. Cut to Oscar following a dirt road in a forest.
Ozpin: (voice only) I'm sorry.
Oscar: You know... the weirdest part is how it feels. Leaving home is crazy. Going to the city is crazy. Everything you've told me is completely crazy. But it doesn't feel crazy anymore. It feels like I'm doing the right thing.
Ozpin: Well... I suppose that's good.
Oscar: No. It's scary.
Oscar bows his head as he speaks, then lifts his head up and looks nervously at the sky as thunder crackles in the distance. He quickens his pace down the road.
Cut to a train station. It has begun storming, and Oscar hurries to the covered platform, holding his hands over his head. When he gets there, he walks up to a large machine with a screen on it, which reads:
"Welcome! Scan Lien to begin."
He rests a Lien card against a scanner. The screen displays an error message that reads:
"ERROR, Unable to complete request. REASON GIVEN: Insufficient Funds (Code: 726)"
Oscar: Stupid thing. I'm assuming whatever weird magic this is doesn't come with an infinite supply of money?
Ozpin: I'm afraid you'll have to solve this one on your own.
Oscar suddenly becomes more alert.
Oscar: Huh?
Ozpin: (hushed tone) Be on your guard.
Oscar: What do you mean?
The view slowly pans to the left, moving out from beside the machine. Soon, Hazel Rainart, who is walking toward Oscar, becomes visible.
Hazel: Here.
Oscar turns his attention to Hazel, who continues to approach him. Hazel stops near the machine and raises up his fist. In response, Oscar flinches away and widens his eyes, uttering a small noise. Hazel then slams his fist down on the machine, which beeps and makes the sound of dispensing paper, while Oscar straightens up and stares. As Hazel moves his fist, the machine spits out a small ticket. While Hazel walks away, Oscar picks the ticket up and then looks at him. Hazel then stops and looks back at him.
Hazel: Don't let such a small obstacle block your path.
He resumes on his way, while Oscar watches.
Oscar: That man. I felt... Who is he?
A train horn is heard in the distance.
Ozpin: Someone from my past. Someone who should not be taken lightly.
Cut to the other side of the train tracks as the silver-gray train arrives. Its engine has glowing cyan markings, each in the form of two parallel lines with a series of evenly-spaced diagonal lines connecting them.
(with Xero and Askad)
Xero: Holy crap
Askad: It's sad.
Pyrrha: Ya
Eve: All this form one grimm.
Qrow: we can Remove that a Beowolf did all this.
Ruby: Ren really didn't want to come here, did he?
Jaune: Uh... didn't seem so.
Ruby: Do you know... why?
Jaune: (sighs) I think I have a pretty good idea...
Xero: It dosen't matter.
Ruby: We should get back to Qrow.
Qrow was learning on a tree
(with Ren and Nora)
Wind blows with the whistling note of high altitude as present-day Ren walks a stony ledge. Before him is more of the mountain, with a cave just ahead.
Ren: (to Nora, as she comes up behind him) We never get the easy path, do we?
Nora: (putting her hands behind her head) Easy's no fun anyway.
She drops her hands and turns to him.
Nora: You OK?
Ren: (with a nod) Mmm. And you?
Nora: I've got you here, don't I?
Ren looks at her as if he does not know what to make of her response.
Nora: (gesturing with her hand as she moves forward) Come on. There's more than one way up a mountain.
Ren watches her for a beat before smiling. Thunder rumbles and Ren loses the smile, turning to look up at the sky.
Nora: Hey! There's wind blowing out of this cave!
'Shown from inside the cave, Ren catches up to Nora. Leaves blow outward toward them.
Nora: Think it might lead to the peak?
Ren: I suppose there's only one way to find ou—ah!
He cuts off as a large piece of fabric abruptly blows out from the cave and covers his face. Nora giggles, covering her mouth with her hands, as Ren frees himself.
Ren: Yes, yes. Very funny.
He looks down at the marked fabric in his hands and goes still. Nora lowers her hands and steps closer.
Nora: Hey, what's wrong?
Ren: This is the symbol for Shion Village.
Nora: Shion? But that's... that's the village where we found the Huntsman. It's weeks away from here!
Ren drops the fabric and runs into the cave.
Nora: Ren! Wait!
Ren stops once he is far enough into the cave to have a good look at what's there. Nora catches up to him and becomes alarmed at what she sees.
Nora: Oh my gosh...
In the spacious area, weapons speckle every place you can look. Swords, axes and staffs are all either propped up or on the ground. Ren moves in and picks up an arrow. He studies it while Nora approaches just behind him. As she looks he also sees what's on the ground... the Nuckelavee hoofprint. It is pointed toward another opening on the opposite end of the cave.Several trees are outside this opening, just below. One at a time, moving away from the cave where Ren can be soon looking out, the trees shake.
Ren: (shaking his head) No...
Ren and Nora ran to where the rest where. trying to warn them.
