The chapter begins with Oscar, Ruby and Blake running down a path away from the entrance of the city. Several soldiers and guardians chase after them while also fighting each other. They make a turn and head for an opening as more guardians appear in the trees.
They reach the opening and jump to a platform of a broken bridge. They're about to get up the ledge on the other side when they see some soldiers jumping to the platform behind them. Another with a rocket launcher stands on a hill behind the platform and aims at them. A guardian suddenly comes out of nowhere and pounces on him as he fires. The rocket hits a support beam of the platform and it comes loose. It slides downhill and everyone on it loses their balance.
The soldiers on the sides drop their weapons and fall over. One even falls off the thing. Oscar, Ruby and Blake stay in the middle to avoid falling off. They see a big stone wall at the bottom of the hill in their path.
"Oh no!" Jaune exclaimed, frantically.
"They're gonna crash!" Neon said, worried.
"Hold on guys!" Flynt shouts.
The trio crouch down and huddle together with Oscar putting his arms around his two female companions. The platform smashes through the wall and the trio is knocked back. They get up when the platform stops. Some soldiers lay dead near them while another is impaled on a tree branch over them. They are disgusted at the sight.
"Okay... We need to get the hell out of here now." Blake said.
"Great idea." Pyrrha said, nodding.
"I couldn't sleep for days after I saw that last time." Ruby said.
"Alright, no time to sightsee. Let's keep moving." Oscar said as they make their way through the ruins of the city and reach a small courtyard. Several old bodies lie around the area.
"Huh... Looks like someone else made it in here before us." Blake said, firmly.
"Let's hope we have better luck making it out." Ruby said.
"Yeah, these bodies look like they've been here sixty, seventy years." Oscar said, looking over the dead bodies. Due to it being warm, they take off their winter coats.
"Well, Taurus and his crew would have headed into the city. So, if we can just make it back to the entrance, it should be clear by now." Blake said.
"Uh, no, Blake, we're going after the Cintamani Stone." Oscar told her.
"What?" She asked in disbelief.
"We have to stop Taurus." Ruby declared.
"Yeah, we can't just let him get away with all he's done." Weiss said, nodding.
"And how exactly do you plan on doing that?" Blake asked.
"Get to the Stone first, before he does, and destroy it." Oscar said, simply.
"Whoa, whoa, wait a minute. Don't tell me you're buying into all that supernatural nonsense."
"I don't know what to believe anymore."
"Neither do I." Ruby admits.
"Okay, well just in case you missed it, that man is certifiable. He thinks he's fulfilling some sort of prophecy. That the Stone will somehow make him invincible. Immortal." Blake informs, seriously.
"Immortal; maybe. But Invincible; doubt it." Weiss said, shaking her head.
"Indeed, Taurus killed three of those creatures with one shot from his shotgun." Winter mentioned.
