Team RWBY, DANY, Qrow, Oscar and Maria are seen standing outside of the gates to the Atlesian Military base on the island off the coast of Argus. Yang puts her hands on the bars of the gate to speak to the guards.

Yang: Come on! You didn't even hear us out!

Nubuck Guard 1: Our orders are clear: The Mistral-Atlas border is closed!

Nubuck Guard 2: Please!

Nubuck Guard 1: Have a good day!

Yang: But--

Both Nubuck Guards: A good day!!

Yang: (frustrated) Babe! Break the gate open!

D. Sleek: And become the Atlas's most wanted criminal? Umm... for something like this, the answer that I have to say is no.

Qrow: Hey, if you don't wanna believe that I'm friends with Ironwood--

Both Nubuck Guards: General Ironwood!

Qrow: Yeah, General Ironwood, then fine. But look, we have Weiss Schnee and Dark Schnee with us and we're trying to get them both home safely.

Weiss, still wraping her arms around Dark, looks down with reluctance upon hearing Qrow say that. The two guards look to each other before turning their attention back to the group.

Dark: But my name dosen't end with Sch-

Both Nubuck Guards: Approach!

Weiss shares a look with Blake, who just shrugs. They both then walks up to the gate and the two guards step up and bend down to inspect them. After a moment, both guards stand straight back up.

Both Nubuck Guards: Very well!

Guard Nubuck 2: You may speak with our commanding officer!

Guard Nubuck 1: We will fetch her at once!

The two guards turn around in sync, and chant "Hup hup hup" and "Atlas Atlas Atlas" as they run to get their superior.

Blake: They were... kind of--

Ruby: Super weird? Uh, yeah.

Maria: Hmm...

Oscar: What's wrong?

Maria: Well, I... may know this commanding officer...

Ruby: That's good, isn't it? If she's your friend, then maybe she'd be more willing to help us.

Maria: I wouldn't exactly call us... "friends".

D. Sleek: Acquaintances?

Maria: Not quite.

Blake: Colleagues?

Maria: Warmer.

Dark SSJ4: Enemies?

Maria: That's the one!

Dark SSJ4: YES! Wait what?

Maria: Oh, yes. I come through here about once every ten years to get my eyes checked up in Atlas. You bring outside cashews on one flight, and suddenly you're placed on the additional screening list for life!

Dark SSJ4: You've gotta be kidding me...

Maria: Now, now, let's not give up hope yet. (beat) Maybe she's dead!

Suddenly, the gates open up quickly, and the two guards return.

Guard 1: Introducing!

Guard 2: Special operative!
