Child of Grimm

General Ironwood

Azdra is laying in the burning rubble black smoke is emitting from her...her eyes are wide open and red and her skin is pale with the veins protruding out...stay back!

Someone says as they slowly approach the crashed airship.

She could be dangerous!

She's our friend! Stay back!

A police man goes over and touches the girl and he retracts his hand as if burned.

A figure shows up beside him - let me! She picks up the smoking body Azdra and she skips away from the airship and lays her on the ground. Azdra! Ruby says and she is held back by atlas soldiers. No!
......
Beep...beep...beeeeeeeeeep.....
beeep....Azdra gasps for air and she opens her eyes.

Good you're awake. Azdra looks at the figure standing over her. He moves the bed into a sitting position and he says can you tell me what happened last night?

Last night? Yes. Azdra glances around and she sees her wrist is cuffed to the bed. He doesn't say anything he just sips from his coffee.

I'm waiting he says. What. Were. You. Doing. Last. Night? He asks. I was helping Ruby search for one of her teammates.

Azdra finally says.

Who? Blake.

Why did she run away. It doesn't matter. It does. He says. Azdra pauses.

Why?

WHY! He slams the table and Azdra doesn't even react.

Why aren't you cooperating? He says.

I'm not going to reveal personal information about a friend without good reason.

Very well he says. Why did you go to the docks? Ruby Pe- and I who? Ruby and I - who is Pe? He asks.

Then he narrows his eyes.

You're talking about Penny? He asks. We all went to see what the explosion was. Why didn't you get the authorities? He asks.

That's what they're there for. Uh huh.

So we were up on a roof just watching and Ruby saw that there were a lot of shipping containers and I suspected they didn't have dust in them.

Penny...was going to go all...commando and I told her to wait.

I jumped down and tried to get answers out of ..Roman but he wasn't or couldn't talk.

Then I was pulled into the air ship.

What happened there?

Nothing.

What happened? It was nothing please leave me be!

The General sighs. What did they say to you?

It's nothing. Azdra says.

You're lying he says.

What? I can tell your lying he says. The door suddenly opens and Ozpin,Qrow and Glynda and another woman that looks like Weiss come into the room.

My farther looks livid.

What the hell do you think you are doing James? Ge-Qrow stops the woman that looks like Weiss. Oz! He says.

Get your hands off her! Ozpin says.

She's been through enough! I was just trying to get some answers he says.

Azdra puts her hand into s fist and she says I don't have the answers you want.

Even if I did I won't say a word.
