Jaune POV:

In an old apartment in the middle of vale, four figures were seen with one sitting in a chair watching as her blond companion was freaking out.

"WHAT, ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY," I yelled out as I heard cinders plan and what apparently Salem wanted me to do. Two of the figures were standing close, just watching as I had a mental breakdown while cinder just sipped some expensive wine looking at him in amusement and slight lustfully.

"You heard me, we are going to infiltrate beacon, you will steal the old headmaster's cane with emerald here while I go to the CCTV tower," Cinder said with a grin as she sipped her wine while tilting her head towards emerald before looking at me again.

"Yea, I heard you, but do you know how dangerous and stupid this plane fucking is," I asked her since beacon was filled with huntsmen in training who knew me and not only that trying to steal the headmaster's cane which he always had with him was a death sentence.

Even her two subordinates looked uncomfortably with this plan, knowing full well how risky this plan was and how easily it could go south. Not to mention everyone back at beacon knew me, which makes infiltrating it even harder since everyone straight-up hates me there.

"So, I don't see how we should have to go through this again then, since you already know the plan, just don't forget to meet up back at the docks after you've done your part," Cinder said as she swirled her wine glass while I just rubbed my forehead.

"Fine, when are we doing this then," I muttered as I took a seat in a chair, rethinking my life choices as Cinder just slightly giggled before sauntering with a slight sway over to me, lifting my head with her finger. I could see a want of lust, a need and, want in her golden eyes before regaining its neutral look. (an: I think cinder's eyes are golden, idk)

"In two days, you and emerald will be disguised as inspectors of the academy. It will be fairly easy because the council always sends two inspectors once a month to make sure everything is in order and no talk about going rouge," Cinder said before walking away to her chair with another sway in her hips while I just nodded my head.

"Understood, I'll see you in two days then, can I leave or do we need to talk more?" I asked as cinder just nodded while saying everything was already done and in order. I had to just show up at the time and try not to blow it all.

As I walked out of the apartment and towards my car I just rubbed my head while thinking on how several reasons this could end up with us in the death sentence.

After two days had passed and spending some time with the twins and hanging out with velvet trying to make my possible last two days enjoyable before ending up getting killed. It didn't take long until I stopped in front of the bullhead docks where cinder and the rest were waiting for me in bullhead, which they bribed to take them to the academy and back. They were all wearing uniforms of investigators as not to arise any suspicion.

"Ah, you are here, the suit is in the corner, you can change in the bathroom while we are flying there," Cinder said as I nodded before taking the inspector's suit and entering the bathroom to change. As I walked out of the bathroom, I was wearing a black 3 piece suit, a valean pin on my chest while holding a clipboard. Cinder grew a smirk seeing me walk out while mercury just whistled.

"Well, you certainly look good," Cinder said with a grin while gazing over me as I just shrugged my shoulders.

"Thanks, how far are we," I asked, hoping this ride would end soon, I had already eaten a motion sickness pill beforehand, but I could still feel some of the effects of flying.

"Around five minutes, what scared of flying," Mercury asked mockingly as I rolled my eyes at the remark.

"No, just want this suicide mission to end quickly," I answered as I took a seat on the bench while Cinder took a seat beside me.
