After the intense experience in the Atlas Tundra, it was time to head back to Atlas Academy, everyone was in airships on their way back. A standby nurse was checking on Nene and Guts on the airship, "You're bleeding a lot Mr. Diraison, I need to put a bandage on you." she said to Guts, "I think you need more than one. Look at me! All my old wounds have opened, and as you can see my entire body is basically a giant wound" he said with an attitude.

Bouddicca walked in to see Guts, "Guts, don't talk to the nurse like that. She's trying to help" she said, "I'm glad we were close enough to that robot so our group could be picked up in the same airship as you guys." Mary Kate smiled, then looked at Guts, "Oh god, Guts, you look terrible..." she said, "Like I keep telling everyone. I've been worse. Besides, you should all worry about Nene more than me." Guts said, "What about her... OH MY GOD!" Mary Kate shrieked in horror. "I... I wish the robot did that to me instead. At least she wouldn't of had to suffer like this..." Tinuviel looked sad.

"What even happened to you guys?!" Mary Kate asked, "We were attacked by a giant robot Grimm thingy" Tinuviel said, "That sounds scary" Mary Kate said. "Yeah..." Emu said with a sheepish smile. Tsukasa and Rui ran to greet Emu and Nene. "You're back!" Tsukasa said, "Nene!!" Rui rushed to Emu who was holding Nene, "Emu, what happened?!" he asked, "She got slashed by this big bear Grimm thingy and her Aura ran out..." Emu said sadly, "We tried our best to keep everyone safe..." Tinuviel said.

"Apparently not hard enough!" Rui said angrily, "Rui!" Tsukasa cried in defense, "Nene is hurt, Tsukasa, she could have died!" Rui snapped. "But she didn't! She's still breathing... she's okay..." Tsukasa defended, Rui didn't say another word.

"We tried our hardest. She isn't the only one hurt you know!" Tinuviel snapped, "Guys... please..." Tsukasa tried to stop the argument, "We should all just be grateful we're all alive..." Emu said, "Agreed" Jojo said. "We're alive and that's all that matters here, let's just get back to Atlas and put this behind us" Akira said, "Again, agreed" Jojo said again.

The airship made it's way back to Atlas so everyone could recuperate from their experience. "I never wanna fight ANYTHING that big EVER again!" Jojo said while walking towards Asuna, "What did you guys get?" Asuna asked, "A giant robot bear that was infused with Grimm blood" Guts interrupted, "Aw man! No fair! That sounds so cool!" Asuna pouted, "Several people almost died." Bernadetta added, "Guts and I got the shit kicked outta us!!" Jojo said.

An announcement came over the loudspeakers, "Could any members of Groups 5, 6, 10 and 12 currently available please come to the Debriefing Room" "Oh, that's us, let's go" Bernadetta said, "Okay!" Shizue said, Doom nodded.

Kana, Akira, Meouch, Bernadetta, Guts, Antony, Danny, Emu, Ren, Tinuviel, Marinette, Doom, Shizue, Kurai and Jojo started walking to the Debriefing Room to meet up with Ironwood. "Gee, I wonder what we're going to Ironwood's office for" Meouch said sarcastically to lighten the mood, "He's going to ask us about the robot. He has to" Akira said, "...I know... I was using sarcasm Akira..." Meouch said, "It was sarcasm? How can you tell the difference??" Bernadetta asked, "I knew it was sarcasm. Ayashii uses it constantly Bernie" Guts said, "Yeah, some people are clever." Ren added rudely, Akira side-glared Ren. "I sense tension..." Jojo said,

"Hindsight tells me I should've gived miraculous to those who couldn't fight" Marinette said, "Don't worry about it, we got through anyway" Kana said, "It's okay Marinette, you did your best and you did an excellent job. We all did" Tinuviel smiled.

"Come on in guys, we need to discuss that robot." Ironwood appeared outside the Debriefing Room. "We all fought our best, sir!" Emu said,

Everyone sat down in the room as Ironwood began: "That Robot you fought, was not part of the Grimm Activity we spotted, I don't know how that thing got there or why it's out there, but this could be the start of something bigger" "We sort of figured it wasn't apart of the Grimm activity you spotted sir" Tinuviel said.
