A sith dies, A huntsman rises.

Meeting

As the group landed in Mistral, they thanked the two pilots and followed Qrow.

Qrow: I have a house here, we can spend the night before going to Haven.

As they neared the house, Vader saw it was a two-story, multiple-roomed house, how Qrow could afford this was beyond Vader's imagination.

They entered the house, Vader asked Qrow a question.

Vader: How many beds are there?

Qrow: Uh...Didn't think about this, but there are six.

Vader: That is no problem, Jaune and Pyrrha can share one along, with Ren and Nora.

Jaune/Nora: Wait - !

He was interrupted as Vader entered his own room and closed the door, ignoring the two altogether.

Pyrrha: Come on, Jaune!

Pyrrha grabbed Jaune's hand and dragged him towards their own room, Nora's face turned red until Ren grabbed her hand and began pulling her away as well.

Ren: let's go, Nora.

Ahsoka, smiled at them, before noticing that Qrow was turning to leave.

Ahsoka: Qrow... where are you going?

Qrow: I need a drink.

Ahsoka: I see...

Ahsoka sat on the same couch Din was on, he was currently fidgeting with a small metal ball, Ahsoka knew was his way of remembering Grogu.

Ahsoka: Raven... how long has Qrow been like that?

Raven: Ever since he could... he's always been a drinker, unfortunately.

Yang: Mom... I have a few questions -

Raven: Maybe later.

Raven climbed the stairs to the top-level, leaving Yang to clench her fist out of fury, Ruby and Weiss walked over and placed their hands on her shoulders, comforting their teammate.

Maul: I do not see the point of being here.

Oscar: He said we're looking for someone, but he failed to mention who.

Maul: Let's not stay long, I have a feeling that people won't like me being here.

Oscar pushed open the door to the bar, people staring at Maul as he walked behind him.

Maul: Do you see him?

Oscar: No...wait...

Oscar walked off, Maul losing him in the crowd. Cursing to himself, how was he supposed to protect this kid if he keeps walking off like that?

Eventually, Maul found him speaking with a man at the bar, he had black hair, a white shirt, and black pants. He eyed warily as he approached.

Oscar: I'm supposed to ask you... I want my cane back.

The man laughed, before standing.

Man: Come on kid.

Maul: Wait...where are you taking him?

Man: None of your business pal.

Maul placed his hand on his shoulder stopping the man.

Maul: I believe it is.

Ozpin: If you two are quite down now... It would be best if we leave.

Maul and the man looked at Oscar who was now being controlled by Ozpin, he motioned to leave the bar, Maul begrudgingly agreed.
