A black bird is flying slowly and magnificently, right up to the moment it gives a final shriek and Ruby crashes through it in a burst of feathers as she plummets downward.
"Birdie, no!" Ruby yelled
Ruby fires off a few rounds from Crescent Rose to slow her down, then turns the weapon into its scythe form to catch the branch of a tree in her blade and fall downward at a slower pace.
Weiss, armed with Myrtenaster, summons a white snowflake circle under her and leaps off of it to the forest below.
Ren descends with Nora Valkyrie briefly being seen next to him at a faster speed and spins in the air, eventually using StormFlower's blades to spiral around the trunk of a large tree and hit the ground, brushing off his clothes before looking up to see...
"Woo-hoo! Yeah! Alley-oop!" Yang yelled
Yang, soaring right over the treetops, is using her gauntlets and its fiery force to push her through the air further and further north, spinning and laughing with each blast, even when she crashes through the leaves of a tree and leaps off two trunks to tumble to the ground.
"Nailed it!" Yang said and she runs off
Pyrrha, her weapon in sword form and armed with a shield, crashes through several trees and rolls on a branch, immediately shifting her blade into a rifle and looking through the scope at Jaune as he continues to scream and fall helplessly. Pyrrha coolly transforms her weapon again to its spear form, takes a moment to evaluate her throw, and rockets the javelin deep into the forest until a "THUNK!" is heard.
"Thank you!" Jaune yelled from a distance
"I'm sorry!" Pyrrha waved
In the middle of the forest, Ruby lands in a crouch, then darts off with a single mantra in her mind.
"Gotta find Yang and Rayelle! Gotta find Yang, gotta find Ellie, gotta find... Ruby yells out trying to find her sister and cousin. shouting) "Yang! Ellie!" She continues to yell out while internally, seeing herself partnered with various people.
"Oh, this is bad, this is really bad... What if I can't find them? What if someone finds them first? Well, there's always Jaune. He's nice. He's funny! ...I don't think he's very good in a fight, though. Ooh! What about Blake?! So mysterious, so calm... Plus she likes books! Then again, I'm not sure I'd be able to hold a conversation with her... Ugh!" Ruby thinks and shakes her head of daydreams.
"Okay... Who else do I know in this school? There's Yang, Rayelle, Jaune, Blake, aaaand..." Ruby says as time seems to slow down as Ruby skids to a halt in front of Weiss as she is turning to face her. She stops just in time for their eyes to meet and a pregnant pause follows. This ends when Weiss turns on her heel and walks the other way.
"Wait! Where are you going?!" Ruby says after following her slightly then stops and kicks the ground dejectedly. "We're supposed to be teammates..." She continues.
Weiss is seen struggling through the forest, giving an occasional grunt or "Ow!" as she pushes plants out of her way. She brushes herself off and sighs in relief when she hears a voice above her.
"Come on, come on! Stupid...!" Jaune yelled trying to free himself
Weiss sees Jaune hanging a few feet in the air by the spear embedded in his hood and the tree behind him. As he gives up trying to pull it out, he looks down and sees Weiss, giving an embarrassed wave. Weiss simply heads back in the direction she came from and Jaune groans in dejection.
"By no means does this make us friends." Weiss says while passing Ruby and pulling her hood.
"You came back!" Ruby says overjoyed as Weiss dragged her
Jaune sees the scene, waves his arms and yells, "Wait! Come back! Who's going to get me down from here?!"
"Jaune? Do you... have any spots left on your team?" Pyrrha asks Jaune as he looks down at her.
"Very funny..." He says while crossing his arms and eventually looks down at her and gives a smile, which she returns.
The scene changes to Weiss trudging through the forest, with Ruby back a ways behind her.
"What's the hurry?" Ruby asked
"I will not let my mission be delayed because you're too slow! I swear, if I get a bad grade because of your—" A smiling Ruby suddenly appears next to her, "What the...?"
"I'm not slow, see? You don't have to worry about me!" Ruby said
"When did...?" Weiss asked looking back slightly amazed
"Weiss, just because I don't exactly know how to deal with people doesn't mean I don't know how to deal with monsters! You're about to see a whole different side of me today, Weiss, and after it's all over, you're going to be like, "Wow! That Ruby girl is really, really cool... and I wanna be her friend!"" Ruby tells her mimicking her at the end.
Ruby disappears in a shower of rose petals, which Weiss waves away from her face just as she hears crackling and rustling in the bushes around her.
"You may be fast, but you still excel at wasting time! Ruby? Ruby...? Weiss calls out to Ruby.
The camera revolves around Weiss, as multiple pairs of red eyes stare at her from the bushes and a deep growl is heard. She turns around until she spots a large, jagged Beowolf emerging from a bush and approaching her.
"Ruby!" Weiss yelled
