(Two Weeks Later)

Inside the building of Mistral. Where Qrow Branwen, Team RWBY, the remaining members of Team JNPR, and Oscar Pine facing Lionheart and Raven.

Qrow: (angry) You have the Spring Maiden.

Raven: I do.

Qrow: Then hand her over and let's work together! We can beat Salem!

Raven: All that time spent spying for Ozpin and you still have no idea what you're dealing with. There is no beating Salem!

Ruby: You're wrong. We've done things that most people would call impossible, and I know the only reason we were able to do it is because we didn't do it alone! We had people to teach us, people to help us, we had each other. Work with us. At least I know we'll have a better chance if we try together. Please.

Ruby holds her hand out. Raven glares at it.

Raven: You sound just like your mother.

Suddenly, Raven draws her sword and creates a portal with her Semblance. From the portal, a fireball is launched and hits Ruby square in her torso. She lands several feet back.

Yang: Ruby!

While Yang runs to her little sister, Cinder Fall steps out of the portal.

Cinder: Hello boys and girls.

She is then joined by Vernal, Emerald Sustrai and Mercury Black as they too step out from the portal.

Ruby: (glaring) Cinder...

Cinder and her group line up alongside Raven, while the rest gasp.

Mercury: C'mon guys, is that any way to greet your old friends?

Yang growls at him.

Qrow: Everybody, stay calm.

Suddenly they hear the doors behind them open up.

Oscar: Oh no...

Hazel Rainart is seen closing the doors behind him as he enters.

Hazel: The White Fang is prepping demolition and securing the school grounds. No one's getting in, and no one's getting out.

Outside, a White Fang soldier is seen placing a bomb on the CCT tower. The camera zooms out to show more bombs all primed set by more White Fang soldiers. Adam Taurus looks on.

Adam: Once the charges are set, move back to perimeter watch. Tonight, Haven falls. (he smiles evilly)

Back inside, everyone watches Hazel slowly approach them. They turn their attention back to Cinder.

Weiss: This was all just a trap?

Ren: It appears so...

Qrow: Raven, tell me... how long have you been with them?

Cinder: (mocking) Aww, don't take it personally, little bird. Your sister was a recent addition. The lion on the other hand... Entrance into the Vytal Festival was a real treat, Leonardo's been sending Salem all sorts of information for a very, very long time. Isn't that right, professor?

Lionheart: (shamefully) Stop it...

Qrow: It was you... you sit on the Mistral Council. You had information on every Huntsman and Huntress in the Kingdom, and you gave it all to her?

Lionheart: I--

Qrow: I couldn't find any of them, because you let her kill them!

Lionheart doesn't say anything, only still having a sad expression on his face.
