General James Ironwood is looking out from the landing docks of Beacon Academy to the city of Vale at night, a few airships hovering over the lit up buildings.
Walking up from behind him is Glynda Goodwitch.
Glynda: Trouble sleeping?
Ironwood looks back, gripping his shoulder with the other hand.
Ironwood: Arm was acting up.
Glynda: Of course, so logically, you got out of bed,dressed yourself completely and decided to gaze menacingly out into the distance.
She approaches all the way to his side as she look at him in concerned.
Glynda: What's wrong?
Ironwood: I've trusted him for years. We both have. I just..... I can't help but feel like he's keeping us in the dark.
Glynda: Don't be ridiculous! You know very well that we are no the ones in the dark!
Ironwood laughs humorously.
Ironwood: That makes it worse! I refuse to believe that a man that I've trusted for so long would act so.... passively!
Glynda puts a reassuring hand on Ironwood's shoulder.
Glynda: You're a good person, James. You've always done what you think is best for the people, even against strong protest. It's admirable, But it's high time you stopped talking about trust and started showing it.
Both stared into the distance together.
Glynda: Ozpin has experience that the rest of us lack. And I think that's something worth remembering.

The shattered moon is shining over the ruined buildings of Mountain Glenn and a lone Beowolf is searching through rubble.
It looks up briefly at the young girl who has it in her red crosshair scope, but Ruby just lowers Crescent Rose and sighs in tiredness as she keeps up the lookout over the fallen city.
The rest of her team is lying down on their sleeping mats around the fire with Weapons nearby and Doctor Oobleck was at the upper level, slumped down against the wall next to the hole in the ceiling/floor.
The other 4 members of Team RWBY have their eyes closed but Yang was the first to stop pretending to sleep.
Yang: Blake? Are you awake?
Blake: Yeah.
Yang: Why do you think he asked us about being a Huntress? Like..... what was he trying to say?
Blake: Maybe he was just curious.
Yang: Ya think?
Blake thinks for a second before answering.
Blake: No.
Yang lays back down and calls out Weiss.
Yang: Weiss? Are you awake?
Weiss: Of course I'm awake! You two are talking.
Yang cringed a bit.
Weiss: And I think he....... When I said I wanted to honor my Family's name, I meant it. But.... it's not what you think. I'm not stupid. I'm fully aware of what my Father has done to the Schnee Dust Company. Since he took control, our business has operated in a....... moral grey area.
Blake: That's putting it lightly.
Weiss: Which is why I feel the need to make things right! If I had taken a job in Atlas, it wouldn't have changed anything. My Father was not the start of our name, and I refuse to let him be the end of it.
