"Professor Goodwitch?" Weiss asked in surprise and shock.
"Oh it's you four!" Goodwitch said in surprise.
Goodwitch then opened the door and team RWBY saw inside the bunker.
The bunker was empty except for Ozpin standing in the room.
"Nice to see you that you four are still alive." Ozpin said.
"Have you two been down here the whole time?" Ruby asked shocked. Ozpin and Goodwitch walked out of the bunker and Ozpin responded, "Yes."
"Well the rest of us have been fighting for our lives, getting turned into zombies, getting eaten, getting torn apart, dying, you both have been down here the whole time?" Ruby asked incredulously.
Ozpin simply nodded.
The four of them felt disbelief, how could their leaders do this to them? But they also felt anger.
"All those people…you…TEAM CRDL GOT KILLED! THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS GOT KILLED! WHILE THE TWO OF YOU HAVE DOWN HERE!" Ruby yelled in complete rage and anger. She wanted to kill the both of them right there and then but restrained herself.
"Hey don't yell at us!" Goodwitch said warningly.
"It's quite alright Glynda. When the zombie invasion started, I messaged all the teachers to meet down here, so that we could come up with a plan and rally against the zombies." Ozpin explained.
"Okay I get that, but where's the rest of the professors?" Blake asked.
"That's what we were wondering too." Ozpin responded.
"If you both noticed no one was coming then why didn't you go up to the ground and help us out?" Yang asked angrily.
"Well…I wanted to see who would be able to get down here. I guess you could call it a messed up test but, I wanted to see what huntsmen-in-training would survive."
RWBY looked at him in disbelief.
Ruby was so angry that she grabbed Crescent Rose, unfolded it, decapitated Professor Ozpin, and then sliced Glynda Goodwitch in half.
Well that's what she fantasied anyways; in reality she was able to restrain herself.
"How could…" Weiss mumbled.
"Here's my reasoning; huntsmen are supposed to be able to defend humanity, against monsters or dangerous human or other things. If they are unable to defend themselves against zombies then how would they fare out in the real world? Besides I truly doubt I would be able to defeat every single zombie by myself." Ozpin explained.
Team RWBY took a minute to digest this explanation.
"Please, give us a moment." Ruby said. Ozpin nodded and RWBY headed up the stairs.
"Okay, what are we thinking here?" Ruby asked her team.
"I think Ozpin is an evil and messed up man." Yang responded.
"I don't think he's evil, but he is definitely messed up." Blake said.
"I agree, I mean how could someone so smart and experienced be so cruel, I mean, who in their right mind could come up with something like that?" Weiss asked, not expecting a response.
"Well…I can kind of see where he's coming from…" Ruby said meekly.
"WHAT?!" her three teammates yelled at her.
"How could you say something like that? How could you justify something like that?!" Weiss asked yelling.
"I'm not justifying anything! I'm just saying, I can understand why he did what he did." Ruby responded.
"Look, I know it's messed up but, it's a way to separate the capable and the incapable. If we're going to fight back against the zombies, we're going to need the best, how do you know if a person is good at fighting? If they've survived for this long and can take out hundreds of zombies as well. If they're dead or a zombie, then they were no use to humanity." Ruby clarified.
Blake, Weiss and Yang stared at her in shock and disbelief.
"I can't believe what I'm hearing…" Weiss said in denial.
They were all shocked at how…blunt she was.
"Look it's too late to save everyone, let's just focused on getting out of here, we've made it this far and we need both of their help to get out of here. With the 10 of us, we'll be unstoppable!" Ruby said excited.
Her teammates sighed, Yang scratched her head and said, "Well…we'll definitely need their help." The other two agreed.
They then walked back down the stairs and walked up to Ozpin and Goodwitch.
Ruby then asked, "Professor Ozpin, can you please help us escape from here?"
"Of course I will, but is it only you four?" Ozpin asked.
"No, JNPR is upstairs." Yang responded.
"Hmm, excellent. We'll have no real trouble escaping from here." Ozpin said smiling.
All four of RWBY felt relieved that they were finally going to escape from Beacon.
"But first we need to get some supplies. I'm sorry girls but you're going to have to go outside again." Ozpin said grimly.
"As long as we're getting out of here…no problem." Weiss said.
"Very well, I need you to go to my office and get the Zombie Kit. It has medical supplies and other stuff as well." Ozpin said.
The four nodded and walked back upstairs. They briefed JNPR on what had transpired downstairs. They then walked back outside to go back to the main office.
Luckily the horde had mostly dispersed, so they're only few stragglers on the way to the office.
They all hoped in vain that CRDL would appear but no luck.
They made it to the main building and we on the way to Ozpin's office when suddenly a blur came speeding at them, then knocked all 8 of them down like bowling pins.
"Ugh…what the hell was that?" Yang asked in pain.
"Was that…no…there's only one person in Beacon that fast, and if I'm not mistaken I saw green hair…" Pyrrha said.
"It's Oobleck." Blake said.
They were all shocked and horrified to find out that a teacher had fallen to the zombie virus.
"So that's what happened to the teachers…" Ren said grimly.
Oobleck came back and knocked them down again and sped off.
They all got up, Ruby had grown a smirk on her face.
"I've always wanted to know which one of us was faster…" Ruby said.
"Ruby what-?" Weiss started
"Go the office, I'll go after Oobleck!" Ruby ordered, she then sped off so fast she broke the sound barrier.
"Well…let's get going I guess…" Yang said unsurely.
The 7 of them made it to the Ozpin's office and grabbed the red box that said 'Zombie Kit' on it. They then ran out of the building.
On the way back to the building that Ozpin as in, Ruby joined the group again.
"Ruby! What happened with Oobleck?" Yang asked concerned.
"He's been incapacitated." Ruby responded.
The group then made it back to the building, ready to finally escape.
