Y/N POV:

After getting inside the Airship we head to our destination.

Yang: (to Oobleck) I guess I just never saw you as much of a fighter.

Oobleck: I admit I fancy myself more of an intellectual, but I can assure you, as a Huntsman, I've had my fair share of tussles.

Ruby: (Tilting her head in confusion) Like the mushroom?

Blake: (Leaning over) Those are truffles.

Ruby: (scratching her head in confusion) Like the sprout?

Akemi: (typing in her scroll) Those are Brussels.

Oobleck: Besides, given my expertise in the field of history as well as my dabblings in the archaeological surveys, our dear headmaster saw fit to assign me to this particular... assignment!

Weiss: What does history have to do with this?

Oobleck: (turning to Weiss) Why, what a preposterous question, you silly girl! Why, history is the backbone of our very society! And the liver! Probably the kidneys, if I were to wager.

Weiss: And that means...?

Oobleck: The southeast quadrant outside of Vale is home to wild forests and deep caves, but it is also the location to one of the kingdom's greatest failures.

Ruby: Mountain Glenn.

Yang: That's right! It was an expansion of Vale... but in the end it was overrun by Grimm and fenced off from the rest of the city.

Oobleck: Correct! And now it stands abandoned as a dark reminder.

Akemi: And a likely place for a hideout.

Oobleck: Precisely!

We make it to a ruins and land on an empty street as we jump off the airship with weapons drawn except for Mom and Oobleck as the it takes off.

Oobleck: Ladies and Gentlemen! You still may be students, but as of this moment, your first mission as Huntresses has begun! From this point forward, you need to do exactly as I and Ms.Akemi say! Do you understand?

He zooms over to Ruby.

Oobleck: Ruby! I thought I told you to leave all of your bags back at school.

Ruby: But, uh, you hadn't told us to listen to you yet. So I didn't.

Akemi: She's not wrong.

Oobleck: Very well, Ruby; leave your bag here, we can pick it up upon our return.

Ruby: But I, well uh-

Oobleck: Young lady, what in the world could you possibly have in that bag that could be so important to bring it with...

Zwei then pops out from her bag as we all stare at him.

Ruby: (whispering to Zwei) Get back in the bag.

Aiden: Way too late for that.
