Atlas Farms

The camera opens up on farm plains on the outskirts of Atlas. A squadron of Atlesian Military soldiers ready their guns just outside the city walls. As they watch, Grimm start running through the fields. On the edge of the floating landmass, the whale-esque Grimm Monstra roars, releasing a wave of Grimm Liquid that spawns a plethora of Grimm types: Sabyrs, Sulfur Fish, Apathy, Megoliaths, and more.

The forces of Grimm and Atlas clash as General James Ironwood looks on from the safety of his office. He scowls, then presses a button on his desk console, speaking remotely to a subordinate.

Soldier: Yes, sir?

Ironwood: I am evacuating all citizens to the subway. Prepare Manta Squad Omega, and dispatch to every part of Atlas.

Soldier: But sir-

Ironwood slams his fist on his desk.

Ironwood: Now!

Atlas City

Elsewhere in Atlas, civilians are seen lounging in a public park. High-pitched speaker feedback is heard before Ironwood broadcasts his announcement.

Ironwood: Citizens of Atlas, please proceed to the nearest underground subway station for shelter.

One man gets up from beside his daughter, confused and looking around for a threat. As sirens begin to blare, people start to panic and run for the subway. Then man is frozen with fear until his daughter points to the sky behind him.

Daughter: Dad? Look!

A swarm of Lancers weave their way between the Atlas skyscrapers, sending the man stumbling back. A squad of Mantas swoops in, opening fire on the Lancers. The man hurriedly leaps to his feet.

Father: We need to go!

Atlas Skies

The Ace Ops and Winter Schnee have taken Yang Xiao Long, Jaune Arc, and Lie Ren into custody, and cuffed them with Gravity Bolas. Their Manta approaches Atlas, and Atlas Military chatter can be heard over the in-ship radio.

Commander 1: We can't get the Hard Light shields back up, sir. The generators took too much damage!

Ironwood: Then don't waste resource on them. Beta Squad, the creature?

Commander 2: We tried bombs, missiles, but we can't make a dent, sir.

Winter chimes into the conversation.

Winter: Sir, Schnee here. Penny is still MIA, but we've apprehended Arc, Xiao Long, and Ren.

Ironwood: Stand by for further orders, and don't let those fugitives out of your sight.

Winter: Yes, sir. Of course.

Behind her, Yang turns to look at her with a grim expression.

Yang: Still just following orders.

Winter turns and narrows her eyes at the girl, then gasps as Monstra slowly comes into view through the windscreen. Jaune and Ren stare slack jawed at the gargantuan Grimm.

Jaune: That's where the Grimm took Oscar and Rody. It's even bigger than I thought.

Vine Zeki narrows his eyes, clearly skeptical.

Vine: Grimm don't take prisoners.

Winter: If Azuris is in there we still need him.

Vine: But I'm unsure if it's wise to enter there. After all, for a mindless beast like the Grimm to take prisoners... (Winter looks down at that)
