Sweeping the area two dressed in black and wearing face scarves figures entered through the loading bay of the dust processing plant. Moving slowly towards the service doors, the shorter figure motioned to wait. Moving towards the conveyer belt, the shorter figure climbed onto the conveyer belt. Lying on their back, they rolled into the building causing the taller figure to smile under his face scarf. The service door cracked open allowing a gloved index finger to motion the taller figure to enter.
Using the metal pillars they reached the grated stairs. Following the steps upwards, they made their way to the administrative floor of the dust factory.
Outside the plant manager office, they noticed through the round window a figure tied to a chair in the back of the room.
The taller figure entered first. The figure was quite died with a sign written, 'Kaboom!' written on it. Kaboom? Kaboom!
Explosion leveled the plant. From the cloud of debris, two figure flew. Landing on the roof of a nearby warehouse, they rolled off the roof.
Landing, the smaller figure pulled off her face scarf.
"Fact finding mission, my ass," shouted Raven staring at her brother, "Qrow!"
"Don't you dare give that death stare," answered Qrow, "sis!"
Couple blocks away, a pair of eyes watched the Branwen twins surviving the deathtrap.
"Found more idyllic idiots for your foolish war, old man."
Sitting across from Tai, "What do Raven and Qrow do when we're not around?" asked Summer staring over her menu.
"Properly doing what they're doing now," replied Tai, "Keeping us guessing on their current actives."
Sipping her latte, her green eyes focused on 'Unknown,' flashing on her scroll again.
The old man's using hunters and huntresses, yet, can't find them in the registry unless he's using students. Desperate, aren't we?
Entering the Beacon student registry, bypassing that sophisticated firewall. And away we go. Raven and Qrow Branwen. Twins. Apart of Team STQR. Summer Rose. Team leader. Orphan born. Taiyang Xiao Long. Son of Chiba Lee. Three unknown and tough customer. Need more information. A little reconnaissance was needed.
Entering the hostel lounge, Qrow and Raven noticed Tai staring at his scroll.
"What are you watching, Tai?" asked Raven.
"It seems an abandon dust factory blew up," said Tai staring at them, "Wouldn't know anything about it?" noticing they're staring at each other, "Listen, if you got stuff on the side understand you got teammates that can be in the crosshairs."
"We can't say anything because of your father," remarked Qrow.
Chuckling, "He's afraid I'll run off on some foolish Ozpin adventure."
"Hey, guys," brought their attention onto Summer, "Got time for some window shopping?"
"Sorry, Summer," replied Raven, "I'm taking the next airship back to Beacon," heading towards the stairs."
"Why?"
Reaching the top of stairs, "I need time to think something over," entering her room.
"What does she need to think over?"
"Seems Raven needs some space right now," said Tai focusing on Qrow, "Anyways, I got something to check on," heading towards the exit, "I'll catch you two later."
Watching Tai leave, "Now, what?" asked Summer looking at Qrow.
"Let's check those signatures," said Qrow sitting down.
