The battle for Beacon Academy continued with the Grimm being batted away by team RWBY. Countless amounts of Grimm were filling the grounds of the school faster than the team could kill them however. Exhausted, the team retreated to an upper floor where they could hide and restore their energy for more fighting.

"Guys... I think... we should let... the school fall." Ruby spoke in fragments as she gasped for breath. Blake and Yang remained silent, but the white princess spoke up and spoke harshly.

"Ruby, you are such a kid." She crossed her arms and held Myrtenaster in her left hand. "If we play our cards right, we... might have a chance." She spoke in her mind that it was a lie and there was no way to save the school. "If the school can not be saved however, then we should leave. Right now." She moved to one of the nearest windows and looked down at the Grimm swarming below them. She sighed heavily and turned to their team leader. Ruby looked at her an upsetting look and stood up.

"Weiss is right guys... we should leave." Ruby shuffled over to the window and stared down upon the Grimm. She shook her head and looked at Weiss with the look of help. "We need to distract them so we can leave!" She grabbed Weiss''s hands and clasped them between hers. "I have an idea, but you won't like it one bit." She then turned to Blake and Yang who was sitting closely together. "We are a team and we should look out for each other." Yang quickly stood up and moved over to her, giving her a strong neck hug.

"That's my little sister, taking charge!" Yang spoke happily and motioned Blake over. "That's the Ruby we all know and love."

Blake, who followed Yang's invitation, walked over to the other three girls and only smiled. "So what's the plan?"

Ruby held Crescent Rose behind her. "Do you remember what we did before we were put into teams? With the entire jump thing?"

Blake spoke up in a curious tone. "Yeah, we used Gambol Shroud and Weiss's Glyphs to slingshot you to a Nevermore. Are you saying we try to do the same thing from somewhere at the school."

Ruby only nodded and pointed down at the courtyard towards the wall. "Remembering when Uncle Qrow and Winter fought there? There are gaps between it. We just have to execute it perfectly and swiftly." She smiled and stood in the window. "Getting down there is the easy part, but doing it is the hard part. Are you guys ready?" She smiled and changed Crescent Rose into it's scythe form. The rest of the team nodded and got prepared for anything that happened. Ruby then turned and jumped out of the window, straight towards their target. The rest of the team then followed suit and were right behind her. Using there weapons to maneuver through the flying Grimm. The flight down was faster than they had expect and all four landed in separate locations. Blake, who landed the closest, was already setting up Gambol Shroud for the slingshot. Yang was a little bit behind her and held on to the other in for when she was ready to launch. Weiss landed closer to the entrance of the school, but had no trouble fighting off the Grimm to get to Blake and Yang. Ruby, however, landed on the other side of the team. She gripped Crescent Rose tightly and used her semblance to attempt and fight through the massive horde of Grimm. One by one, Grimm fell before her as she neared closer and closer to her team. She was then halted when an Ursa struck at her from the side, sending her to the ground and onto her side. This didn't keep her down for long and she bolted straight for the team. Weiss used her glyphs to launch herself away from the school. Ruby, who was now badly injured, propped Crescent Rose just right and launched herself after Weiss. Yang's job was a little bit more difficult, as she had to launch both her and Blake.

"You might want to hold on tightly." Yang spoke with a sly smile on her face and shot multiple times to get full momentum, chasing after the other two.
