(Kingdom of Vale)

(Night)

As the shattered moon shines in the night sky. Albus Arbiter walks through the streets before entering a shop called From Dust Till Dawn. He is greeted by an old man who he assumes is the Shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper: Welcome to the shop. Is there anything I can get you?

Albus: No, just browsing. (smiles) But thank you, for the offer.

Albus walks around the store, seeing dust of all kinds. However, he fails to notice a familiar young girl wearing a hooded red cloak in the corner of the shop, reading a weapons magazine.

Suddenly, the doors open and Albus peeks around the shelves to see local criminal Roman Torchwick and some henchmen, enter the shop.

The henchmen look around and at the Dust crystals in the display when Roman approaches the elderly shopkeeper.

Roman: (flicking his cigar) Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a Dust shop open this late?

One of the henchmen points his gun at the shopkeeper. Albus glares at the men but takes cover behind the shelves.

Shopkeeper: (raising his hands) P-please! Just take my Lien and leave!

Roman: Shhh, shhh, shhh, shhh, calm down, we're not here for your money. (to the henchmen) Grab the Dust.

A henchman opens a case and removes one of several cylinders, which the group uses to take Dust from the tube containers on the walls.

Henchman 1: (placing another open case on the display to the shopkeeper) Crystals. Burn. Uncut.

The shopkeeper proceeds to fill the case. As another henchman goes for another tube, he hears music coming from the hooded girl's direction and unsheathes his sword.

Henchman 2: (pointing his sword at her back) Alright kid, put your hands where I can see 'em.

The girl doesn't answer due to the loud music. While Albus slowly walks up behind the henchman, who steps closer to the girl.

Henchman 2: Hey, I said hands in the air! You got a death wish or something!?

He goes over to her and turns her around, the hood dropping to reveal a surprised Ruby Rose wearing headphones. He motions for her to lower them.

Ruby: (doing so) Yes?

Henchman 2: I said, put your hands in the air, now!

Ruby: Are you... robbing me?

Henchman 2: Yes!

Ruby then notices from behind the man is Albus. Who winks at her before whistling to gain the henchman's attention.

Henchman 2: (proceeds to turn around) Huh?

The henchman sees Albus, who confidently motions to him "come on". The henchman angrily charges at the boy and tries to swing his sword down on him, but Albus avoids the attack and amazingly disarms the man of his weapon.
