Ruby POV

Weiss sat in front of the fire with her knees to her chest. Blake tried to console her a little by resting a blanket on her shoulders. Just then, we hear the door opening. Qrow entered the room, brushing the snow off of his shoulders.

Qrow: It's the same in every house.

Yang: What?

Qrow: Bodies... In every bed in every home. It's like the whole estate just went to sleep and never woke up.

He then walked up to the fire and knelt by it for warmth.

Weiss: Then we're not staying here, right?

Qrow: We don't have a choice. Stom outside's only getting worse. We'd freeze to death before we made it anywhere.

Maria then got up and walked towards a bookcase.

Maria: Well, might as well get comfortable.

Yang: Yeah, fat chance.

Ruby: Okay then, let's do something. If this place wasn't abandoned, it might still have supplies we could use.

Oscar: Hey, yeah, maybe even a car.

Qrow then walked back towards the door.

Qrow: Okay, I'll do another sweep of the grounds. Nobody else goes anywhere alone.

Blake stood up.

Blake: Yang and I can search the other buildings for vehicles.

Yang: Fine, whatever gets me out of this house.

The two of them exited the house and I shut the door behind them.

Blake POV

Yang and I found a building that looked like a garage. We opened the large door and stepped inside. As we investigated the building, which was just one large room with storage shelves. We came across an old, blue tractor.

Blake: Something tells me that's not street legal.

We continued to make our way past each row of shelves.

Yang: What do you think happened here?

Blake: There's that well in the square, maybe water contamination.

Yang: Yeah, maybe.

Yang sighed and rubbed her hand on her forehead.

Blake: Hey, are you okay?

Yang: Yeah... I mean- No... But... I don't know. I'm just tired.

Blake: Yeah...

Yang POV

I made my way to the other end of the building. Looking over to the right, I saw a large cart, probably meant for a tractor or truck.

Yang: Hey, I found something.

As I looked up and out the window, I saw a figure standing partially behind an old and gnarled tree. I squinted at the person to try and discern any features, then I saw it. The glowing orange eyes, followed by the ignition of two blood red lightsabers. I gasped and nearly lost my balance. Blake ran up to me.

Blake: What is it?

Yang: I... I was just seeing things... I still get flashes from that night.

My hand shook and I used my robotic arm to stop it.

Yang: The night that... Darth Saeris... attacked Weiss and I.

Blake put her hand on my shoulder. She looked at me with an expression of comfort.
