*baby cry*

*baby cry*

"We're alive…?"

"We survived!"

"The lights are out!"

Suddenly, a bright light appears among the crowd

The surrounding sewers are taken out of darkness and everyone looks for the light source

Suddenly a woman is handed a baby and looks up only to be slightly blinded by said source

Schlag: I'm the one making light, it's my Semblance. Don't move I'll open the manhole

She gets up the ladder and as everyone check themselves and the little belongings they brought, she pushes the cover, but to no avail

Schlag: It's blocked… Rubbles…

She gets down and starts walking to a random direction

Schlag: We're going to have to find another exit! Follow me!

A man raises his voice "But who are you?"

She takes out her scroll

"I'm Schlag Veindenberg. I'm a Huntress"

She notices the scroll doesn't work. At all

She quickly puts it back and starts moving in the sewage waters, sword in hand, hoping to find an exit

People hesitate at first but quickly follow her, not wanting to stay in the dark

Hours later, at a Mantle camp

Ruby, getting in the tent: How is he?

Jaune: Better, but…

Penny: It'll leave scars. Bad ones

Jaune: The wound is big and his aura is small… And I'm getting exhausted too

Weiss gets in

Weiss: If only we had power… My family's surgery tables could…

She stops seeing the look from Ruby

"But it could…"

Suddenly Fiona gets in in a hurry

"Ruby, we need your team in sector 4 right now!"

Ruby: *sigh* Why can those robots never work when we need them most…

She and Weiss go out, not without a worried look at you

Back in the sewers

After almost an hour of walking, finding another group and establishing a rear guard with a huntsman found on the way, fighting some remaining Grimms, Schlag finally starts to see a light ahead

She starts running towards it and stops her Semblance

She immediately stops and turns back to the group

Schlag: Stop right now! Don't move

They manage to stop before reaching her and one them gets to her, wanting to see what was so dangerous

What he sees is simple.

Mantle

Indeed, the sewers gives to a hole in Atlas City, and a direct view of the city below

Schlag: We went the wrong direction…

She turns around

"Alright, 10 minutes pause and we go back!"
