3rd POV

'Wake up! I know you're awake.'

Before even Courageous could open her eyes and register she was indeed awake, Spring's voice echoed around her, bouncing off of unseen walls. Well, as if she could see.

'Can't even find privacy in my own mind.' The French girl internally groaned before beginning to fully wake up.

The frigate fluttered her eyes open, finding herself set on a couch in what appeared to be a run-down shack or the living room of a neglected house. Either way, it was in bad shape. The ceiling drooped above a window that allowed light to peek through dusty curtains, the wallpaper had started to peel off as if it had been neglected for far to long, and the pieces of furniture that were present were coated in a layer of dust.

Sitting up, the girl would be met by the worried stares of Team RWBY.

"Are you sure you're fine?" Weiss asked with suspicion, narrowing her eyes at the girl.

The frigate raised her other hand and shooed her away. "Yeah-yeah. I'm fine." She tightly gripped the handle of the lantern and stumbled back, nearly falling if it weren't for the cat faunus and blonde brawler. "Just fatigued..."
