At the abandoned farm, Team RWBY, Qrow, Oscar, Maria, V, Johnny, and Kerry were heading to a big house to shelter themselves from the snowstorm that was heavily picking up.
V grabbed the knob and twisted it, but the door wouldn't budge.
"Locked," V said, frustration evident in her voice.
"I got this," Johnny said gently, pushing V aside, whereupon he punched the glass and shattered it, reaching inside to unlock the door from the inside.
"There we go," Johnny said triumphantly, gesturing for the group to enter the house before the storm worsened.
They all then armed themselves in case someone was hiding, but surprisingly noone from inside attempted to stop them.
"Close the door already! It's cold enough in here as it is," Maria said as she walked through the door.
"fucking hell Maria!" Kerry exclaimed, as he was startled by Maria's sudden outburst.
As the door was shut, V used some paper that was lying around and taped it to the broken window, hoping to keep out some of the cold air. "That should help a little bit," V said optimistically, hoping to make the house more bearable until the storm passed.
"I saw a chimney from the outside. Maybe we could get a fire going?" Blake suggested.
"Please. I'll look for some blankets," Weiss said.
"Yang, go with her," Qrow said.
As the gang splitted up, Ruby lingers by the entrance hall for a bit while the others look around.
Ruby walked toward a group of pictures on a wall, one that held the family that owned Brunswick Farms.
"that must be them," V said as he walked up beside Ruby, looking at the pictures.
"Yeah, they look happy," Ruby replied, feeling a sense of nostalgia for a family she never knew.
"but something doesn't feel right," V said.
"you're getting that feeling too?" Ruby asked.
"ye-" V could say until they heard a scream that belonged to Weiss.
"weiss!" Ruby exclaimed.
Soon everyone rushed to where Weiss and Yang were on the floor, shocked by what they saw, and what it was causing Weiss to scream. There was a bed that had what seemed to be the owners of the farm dead... but their bodies seemed to have decayed over time, as if they had been there for years.
"holy shit!" V exclaimed, feeling a chill run down their spine as he got close to the bodies to investigate further.
As he got close, he pulled the sheets off the bodies to use his cyberware enhancements to scan for any clues as to what had happened, but oddly he couldn't find any signs of trauma or foul play. It was as if the couple had simply died in their sleep.
After this, Team Rwby, Oscar, Maria, and V were in a small study room, getting warm by a fire. V was passing back and forth, deep in thought about the mysterious deaths.
"Could have been some deadly gas, but this is a farm, so it doesn't make sense for that to be the cause," V muttered to himself.
Soon they heard the door open, where the group looked to see Qrow, Johnny, and Kerry enter the house.
"Holy cow, it's cold out there," Kerry whimpered as he rubbed his hands together.
As Kerry rushed to the fireplace, Qrow spoke, "it's the same in every house."
