- [Radio] Manta 5-1.

Welcome home.

Please continue your approach

to Atlas docking bay, Omega-12.

A security team will meet you there.

Over.

- I don't understand.

What's happening here?

- I don't know.

- But we are here.

We got the lamp to Atlas.

So, I guess we land and get some answers.

- [Weiss] I'm not so sure.

- [Weiss] I'm not so sure.

I've never seen our forces deployed so aggressively before.

If we land in a stolen ship,

there's no way the security team

will let us anywhere near Ironwood.

They might even take me back to my father.

- So...

- Winter!

Put some distance between us and the fleet.

- You don't have to tell me twice.

(engine roaring)

(melancholy music)

(melancholy music)

- [Braodcast] ...cannot express our appreciation enough...

Many describe 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,

The Kingdom of Atlas will remain strong,

and it will remain safe.

That is my promise.

- General Ironwood.

He looks...

- Tired.

- James, what have you been doing?

- [Civilian 1] Ugh, not these again.

- [Civilian 2] Why can't they just leave us be?

(machine whirring)

(rock clangs against machine)

- This isn't right.

None of this is 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?

Over.

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

- We need to ditch the ship.

- Agreed.

Get lost in Mantle and buy ourselves some time.

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

- Uh, Weiss?

- [Broadcast] A reminder.

- Huh?

- Failure to cooperate with Atlas military personnel

is a punishable offense.

is a punishable offense.

If your sector

is under lockdown... - Winter?

- No offense, Weiss.

(Winter indistinct in background)

I'm not sure that's a good idea anymore.

- There's obviously something very wrong.

If we can just talk to her, then we-

- Look, I'm not even sure we should be talking to Ironwood

until we know exactly what's going on with Mantle.

- But- - Everyone, calm down.

(sighs) I know someone who can help with both.

- [Radio] Manta 5-1, you are to make your-

- Jeez, lady, take a hint.

- [Soldier] It landed over there, let's go!

(truck whirring past)

(banjo strumming)

(banjo strumming)

- Come on now, hurry!

It shouldn't be much of a walk.

- Is this many soldiers normal?

- No.

At least, I didn't think so.

- Huh?

(machine whirring)

(camera snaps)

(Yang grunts)

(metal crunching)

(truck colliding)

Ooh.

Maybe we should pick up the pace.

Maybe we should pick up the pace.

- You have to remember,

the kingdom had just lost the Great War.

The people of Mantle needed a sign of a brighter future,

and that sign was Atlas.

After all, a home in the clouds

is about as bright as it gets.

(indistinct voice on loudspeaker)

- Unless you're the one having to look up at it.

- This whole city, it just seems awful.

- Yeah?

- Yeah?

You don't like it here?

There's plenty of space out in the tundra.

- Sorry, I didn't mean to-

- Atlas is the greatest kingdom in the world, all right?

- Hey!

- We can't cause a scene.

- The embargo-

the embargo's got us in a rough patch,

but it'll blow over, you'll see.

- We try and help the other kingdoms,

and this is what happens?

I say let 'em rot!

- I apologize.

I didn't mean to insult you.

(spits)

- Stupid Faunus like you

wouldn't under-

(whooshing)

(screams)

- It was worth it.

(indistinct broadcast)

- Hey, wait!

You're-

that was-

(thuds)

- We are here for your safety.

Thank you for your cooperation.

- [Man] And no more heavy lifting,

you hear?

(giggles)

- Ah, it's good to see you again,

old friend.

(clears throat)

(drawer shuts)

- Ah, yes, yes.

Have we met?

- Well, this is off to a fantastic start.

- Cybernetic optical implants.

You adjust them.

Every 10 years or so?

- Maria!

Yes, with the cybernetic optical implants!

I adjust them every 10 years or so.

(laughing) Oh wow, has it been that long already?

- Ah, I know.

I age like a fine wine.

Would've been here sooner if I hadn't

run into these jokers.

At the time,

I thought they might need my guidance

while fighting a little old sphinx.

- Oh, did they?

- No, no.

They had much more complicated issues.

They had much more complicated issues.

- (clearing throat) And this is?

- So impatient.

I didn't think I'd need to introduce one of

Atlas' finest minds.

- Working in a place like this?

(creaks and thuds)

- He likes to keep a low profile.

Something I've come to realize

none of you know anything about.

- You can call me Pietro.

- Finest heart, too.

This pharmacy is just where he volunteers

when he's not building the future of Atlas

when he's not building the future of Atlas

alongside Ironwood,

up in the clouds.

- Oh, it's stuffy up there.

Down here I get to help the locals

and have a little fun.

I'm currently working on shoes

that make you dance.

You wanna try 'em on?

- Yes!

- Before we get to that,

we were wondering if you could help us?

We came to Atlas hoping to talk with General Ironwood,

but, um...

- What exactly has been happening here?

- (coughing) Well, the fall of Beacon took a toll

- (coughing) Well, the fall of Beacon took a toll

on all of us.

James was no different.

I couldn't tell you exactly what it was

he saw there,

but it changed him.

He's...

- He's scared.

- Paranoid would be the more appropriate term.

You have to understand,

it wasn't just the Grimm.

Someone completely dismantled Atlas security code.

Made it their play-thing.

And made us look like traitors to some and

And made us look like traitors to some and

buffoons to everyone else.

Whoever managed to do that

is either a genius or

one of our own.

I fear the answer may be both.

And so does the General.

- Maybe Atlas isn't as safe as we thought.

- After we came all this way,

we can't just leave,

can we?

- How does the council feel about all of this?

Or Winter Schnee?

Do you know anything about her?

Do you know anything about her?

- Well, the council's so scared,

they'll agree to whatever he wants.

Though some representatives from Mantle...

Wait,

you're Weiss Schnee!

(gasps)

- Wait, what was it that you were trying

to say about Mantle?

- You painted it.

- What?

- Is everything okay?

- You're Team RWBY.

- You know us?!

- You know us?!

- Oh, my girl I do.

I most certainly do.

And I feel like such a dunce for not recognizing

you sooner.

My daughter's told me so much about you.

- Your... daughter?

(alarm blaring)

- Ah, trouble.

- Wait!

(weapons clanking)

- I guess the city defenses aren't doing much.

- Somehow that doesn't surprise me.

(growling)

(thuds)

- Hm?

(robotic clanking)

- Well, we didn't come this far to fail now!

(creatures roaring)

- Hey!

(growling and slashing)

Hm!

(slashing)

(alarm blaring)

(lasers slicing)

- Penny!

- Darling,

why don't you say hello to your friends?

- Sal-

- Sal-

U-

TATIONS!

(excited yelling)

It is such a pleasure to see you all again!

- Penny, I-

I thought you-

- [Pietro] Died?

I guess in a manner of speaking,

she did.

But we were able to recover her core

But we were able to recover her core

from Amity Arena once it had made its way

back to Atlas.

It took me some time, but-

- I'm as good as new!

Better even.

And now I'm the official protector of the city!

- That's my girl.

We're not going to let a little

ripping to shreds stop us,

are we? (laughing)

- No, sir!

- This is...

- Strangely wholesome.

- Sounds like Penny to me.

- We have so many things to catch up about.

I cannot wait.

I cannot wait.

(alarms blaring)

It seems we will have to wait.

Let's talk more later.

I can't wait to hear about all your adventures- (whooshing)

I'm very excited for the whole experience!

- I can't tell if I completely understand what's going on,

or have like,

a million questions!

- And thankfully,

I have about a thousand answers.

But let's get out of this weather first.

- I have absolutely no idea who that child was.

Is she important somehow?

- That was unexpected.

- That was unexpected.

- Never a dull moment.

- But I wouldn't say unwelcome.

I was honestly expecting things to

go a lot rougher.

(ropes spinning)

- Good work, team.

- Hey!

What's going on?

- Hey, pal.

I'm a licensed Huntsman.

I'm a licensed Huntsman.

Just helped save everyone?

(robotic beeps)

- Hm.

Let's get them loaded into the next transport.

- Please!

We were just trying to help.

- What is the meaning of this?

(coughing) What are the Ace-Ops even doing down

here in Mantle?

- Ace-Ops?

- Ace-Ops?

- Doctor.

Good to see you.

Well, we heard a report of an unauthorized ship

making an unauthorized landing

followed by an unauthorized use of weapons

by non-licensed Huntsmen.

- If we could just talk this out-

- They'll be able to talk this out

once they get up to Atlas.

Let's move out!

(grunts)

- Now, this...

This is much closer to what I was expecting.

This is much closer to what I was expecting.

(doors clanging)
