Weiss walks down the corridor of the Schnee manor alone only for a young boy to cross her path.

???: good afternoon sister, a pleasure to see you out of your room for a change.

Weiss: hello Whitley, you're in a cheery mood today.

Whitley: Klein made crapes for breakfast.

Weiss: what do you want?

Whitley: I heard farther shouting with someone in his study earlier.

Weiss: mother?

Whitley: no... she's already drinking in the garden. I think it was a man. I just wanted to warn you, I heard that he wanted to speak with you.

Weiss gets a little worried but doesn't show it.

Weiss: I'll be fine.

Whitley: I know you will.

Weiss is caught off guard by her brother's kindness.

Whitley: you're strong, like Winter.

Weiss: you never liked Winter.

Whitley: true, but you can't deny her resolve.

Weiss: you, seem different.

Whitley: and you've been gone, I'll have you know I didn't stop growing while you were away at beacon.

Whitley turns around and starts to walk away.

Whitley: anyway, good luck with farther.

Weiss stares at her brother as he walks away.

Weiss: thank you.

The members of RNJR sleep quietly, Ruby on the other had suddenly wakes up as she thinks she wakes up from a bad dream. Time goes by as RNJR are back on the move as they head towards the next village. Ruby reads the map as the others follow her.

Ruby: so, the next town is, ah... ah ha... ahh, we're lost.

Jaune: we're not lost, the next town is Shion, my family used to visit it all the time.

Ruby: oh yeah, don't you have like four sisters?

Jaune: eh, seven.

Nora: you know that actually explains a lot.

Jaune: wait what do you mean?

Ruby: so, what did you guys do there?

Jaune: oh, all sorts of stuff.

Jaune walks to Ruby and looks at them map with her.

Jaune: over here is a great hiking trail, and over here is where we went camping all the time, I got my own tent because I was special... also so that so my sisters would stop braiding my hair.

Ruby: didn't like the look?

Jaune: yeah, they kept doing pig tails but personally I'm more of a warrior's wolf tail kind of guy.

Ruby: that's just a ponytail.

Jaune: ... I stand by what I said.

Nora: uh, guys

Jaune: what?

Ruby: huh?

Ruby and Jaune look up from the map to see the village was completely destroyed. They all give each other a look as the run into the village.

Nora: there might be survivors.

Ren: over here.

Ren rushes to a man that is wounded badly as the others look at each other before running up to catch up with Ren.
