Star's POV

I gazes out the window of the police airship so did Ruby as it flies over Mantle, then I turn and look at my friends. Nora chewing at the bolas restraining her wrists, while everyone else sits silently, the only sounds being Nora's growling and the muffled chattering of the guards piloting the ship.

Ruby: Where do you think they're taking us?

Qrow: I'm gonna go with jail.

Star: I'm pretty sure will be maximum prison for having Guardians with you guys.

Jackson: Possible.

Jaune: I still can't believe that fishing pole guy took us out like it was nothing.

Blake: *to Star* I thought Hunters have fast reflex.

Star: Hey don't blame me, the fish guy was lucky to catch in easily.

Jackson: Extremely lucky.

Weiss: Welcome to Atlas. Those were Ironwood's Ace Operatives.

An unfamiliar man sitting with the group finally speaks up.

???: Hmm? You guys had a run-in with the Ace-Ops? Ironwood must really have a bone to pick with you.

Weiss: *rolling her eyes* They're not that big of a deal.

???: Not that big of a deal!? The Ace-Ops are the elite-of-elite military Huntsmen and Ironwood's personal attack dogs.

Nora: So they got you too, huh?

Star: And also putting you here, with us.

???: Pfft! I wouldn't let myself get caught by them. I'm here because I've been speaking out against Atlas' exploitation of Mantle, and General Ironwood is trying to silence me.

Pilot: You threw a brick at her ship!

Star: *sarcastic* Wow, using a brick to speak out agasint Atlas, that solve a lot of problem.

???: *proudly* It's worth it if it gets people talking about our cause!

The pilot sighs in annoyance.

Blake: "Our cause"?

???: Yes, the fight for better conditions in Mantle! Lead by the charismatic, talented, lovely Robyn Hill and her Happy Huntresses!

Star: You mean the lady that's running for some election

The main pilot presses a button, causing the window between the cab and the back of the ship to begin slowly closing. The guy notices this, stands up and begins frantically shouting to the window so the guards can hear him.

???: They were all top Atlas Academy graduates, who could've signed up for the military, but Robyn and the Huntresses chose to stay in Mantle. She's gunning for a seat on the kingdom's council, and when she gets it, she's gonna put an end to Ironwood's tyranny!

Oscar: Happy... Huntresses?

Yang: Is that their real name?

Weiss: Don't you think "tyranny's" a little dramatic?

Star: Everything what we were hearing is dramatic here.

The guy turns around to respond and looks surprised upon realizing who had just spoken.

???: Easy to say for a Schnee heiress, living comfortably up in Atlas.

Weiss: *sighing sadly* Not anymore.

Star: Hey assmouth, she's not a the heiress anymore and also I'm in a bad move. Is better is you shut up.

???: Hey aren't you that Guardian girl, didn't expect you to be captured so easily.
