SEASON 4

Radio: Please continue your approach to Atlas docking bay omega 12. A security team will meet you there. Over. 

Ruby: I don't understand, what's happening here? 

Qrow: I don't know.

Jaune: But we're here. We got the lamp to Atlas, so... I guess we land and get some answers. 

Charlie: I don't believe it'll be that easy, Jaune. From the little information I know about altas; they won't  allow us to walk in so easily.

Weiss: He's right. I've never seen our forces deployed so aggressively before. If we land in a stolen ship, there is no way the security team will let us anywhere near Ironwood. They might even take me back to my father. 

Everyone shared an uneasy look. 

Blake: So? 

Weiss: Winter! (Weiss quickly searched for her scroll and turn to Maria) Get some distance from the fleet. 

Maria: You don't have to tell me twice. 

Matia then piloted the ship down towards the city below. As the ship passed through the cramped and dingy buildings, Charlie looked out the window at the low lit streets below. People were going about their day,. Billboards around the city were showing a broadcast of Ironwood, speaking at a press conference. 

Ironwood: (Broadcast) ...Cannot express our aprication enough. Many have described these as uncertain times, and while that may be the case for the rest of the world, I can tell you what is certain. The kingdom of Atlas will remain strong, and it will remain safe. That is my promise. 

Yang: General Ironwood. He looks- 

Ruby: -Tired. 

Charlie: something feels wrong....

Qrow: James, what have you been doing? 

Four Atlesian Knight-200s are seen walking down a street in Mantle, while civilians around them complain about their presence.

Civilian 1: Ugh, not these again.

Civilian 2: Why can't they just leave us be?

A small drone floats along a sidewalk, while a pair of small children hide in an alley. One of the children picks up a rock and throws it at the drone, which spins around to look, prompting the children to hide against the wall. Weiss sadly stares out of Manta 5-1's window with her Scroll in her palm. Her Scroll is set to call Winter, who does not answer.

Weiss: This isn't right. None of this is right. 

Radio: Manta 5-1, we've noticed a detour in your route. You are to make your way to docking bay omega 12 immediately, do you copy?

Maria: We're kind of running out of time here, kids.

Yang: We need to ditch the ship. Qrow: Agreed. Get lost in Mantle and buy ourselves some time.

Weiss: I'm telling you, my sister can take us to Ironwood.

Blake:(stares out of the window with Charlie Uh, Weiss....

Charlie: that plan might be out of the table

Weiss walks over between Blake's and Charlie and looks out the window with her as a familiar voice plays from a giant screen.

Winter: A reminder.

Weiss: Huh?

Winter: Failure to cooperate with Atlas military personnel is a punishable offense. If your sector is under lockdown...
