Winter was still mad about the call from Qrow, so she decided to take another visit to the prison ward, the place where Robyn Hill was sentenced for eternity for a crime Qrow commited. She was still angry about how Robyn let Qrow walk all over her despite how they had something special. Qrow had to ruin everything....

"Robyn, how are you hanging?" Winter solemnly sighed, tapping on the glass to get the girls' attention. 

"You really came to see me again, huh" she said, trying to stand up, but she was too famished and tired to do so. 

"I couldn't keep my promise. I can't get you out of here", Winter cried as she wiped the tears off with her sleeves.

"Winter, I tell you this every day, I'm just a criminal. I deserve to be locked up here and  left to die for my heinous crime". Winter seemed appalled by what Robyn had just said. She didn't do anything, yet she still took the blame. 

"You didn't kill Tyrian Callows. Qrow and Tyrian faked his death so they could frame you. Qrow betrayed Atlus and Beacon!!!" Winter yelled as a tear rolled down her face, but Robyn just looked at her like she had lost all hope.

"We can't prove that Qrow betrayed Atlus and Beacon. Even if we could, what good would it do I still have been incarcerated for months. They will kill me, so I can't tell the public what is going on in these prisons" she said with a deadpan voice. 

"I love you Robyn". Winter said before leaving the prison ward she cried because she didn't say" I love you back 

Qrow, I will never forgive you for your crimes she thought to herself as she went into the elevator 

Three months ago...

Ironwood and Ozpin held a competition to decide who was worthy of being in the inner circle. Of course, Qrow wanted to keep his spot but he was greedy. Robyn beat him in every category. She even beat him in the manly category, the one category only guys can win he was on thin ice. 

He was jealous. He wanted to beat her in any way possible so he cheated, but he was caught and threatened to be suspended from the inner circle. He was maddened by this. He should've been locked up then and there but he wasn't. They let him continue to compete. 

"Nice work out there Robyn", Winter cheered as Roby walked into the waiting room.

"Thank you Winter!" Robyn happily said as she started to pour wine into a glass, taking a sip of it.

"Qrow is pretty pathetic, right" Winter laughed. Robyn looked at her and nodded.

"Yes, he is pathetic, but he works harder than anyone else" Robyn stated, taking another sip of wine. 

Winter looked at the girl as if she had just said the best joke in the world. " He's a stupid drunk, worthless. You know he is greedy for power", Winter scoffed. 

"Don't say that he truly does try his best" Robyn sighed, finishing her glass of wine. " He can try better though", Winter scowled. 

Qrow overheard everything. He felt embarrassed and angry that they were mocking him. He was supposed to be the greatest. He was Ozpin's right-hand man and he was being this mistreated. 

"I am Qrow Branwen... I will not be disrespected by some woman" he scowled 

The next day, there was another set of competitions. Qrow lost to Robyn again and again he couldn't seem to best her. He never ever came close. He was the laughing stock of Beacon and Atlus. It was about time for the final competition. A team of three had to go capture Tyrian Callows. 

Qrow knew this was his last chance and was prepared to do anything to guarantee his spot in the inner circle, even if it meant he had to commit a crime. 

"Winter, Robyn, and Qrow you will be the first squadron that goes on this mission. Whoever captures Tyrian first will get a spot in the inner circle", Ozpin said as he pointed towards the exit. 

The three of them exited the room and prepared for battle. However, little did Robyn and Winter know. Qrow made contact with Tyrian and hatched a little plan for Tyrian to fake his death and frame Robyn and in exchange, Qrow would let Tyrian take over an overlooked part of Atlus, one where he could slaughter thousands without anyone noticing, 

Qrow let out a laugh, realizing that Robyn would probably be executed after she got framed so he wouldn't have to deal with her later. He was about to enact his plan.
