The duo rode the jet ski through a flooded city, Sun driving and Velvet using a grenade launcher to cover them. Eventually they made their way to the building.

"Okay, I know grenades," Nora began, "And the recoil from that thing alone would have sent Velvet off the jet ski."

"And who leaves burn barrels in water?" Weiss scoffed, "If you ask me this whole scene was ridiculous.

Almost everyone nodded in agreement.

"All right, let's find a way to the harbor and hope the boats still there." Sun stated as they approached the building.

"Still intent on leaving, Sun?" Ruby asked.

Sun nodded, "I know Velvet doesn't want to be used as an excuse, but like I said, losing Torchwick probably took a toll on other me. I'm imagining it like I had lost Neptune and that Velvet was Blake. I'd do the same thing to try and protect my friend." Sun's heart sank a little as he said it, realizing he did lose Neptune.

Blake nodded and smiled at Sun. He really did have a kind heart to be willing to sacrifice so much so that she could be happy or safe.

They came across a room that looked like a small library.

"Wow!" Velvet exclaimed at the sight of all the books.

"These must be all the old ship manifests!" Sun reasoned.

Sun pulled one off the shelf, as Velvet filmed, "Still seem to be in good shape!" He observed as he blew dust of the volume.

"Maybe some proof will change Monkey Boy's mind," Roman mused.

Sun shook his head, "Nope, this is one thing I'm absolutely sure about."

Roman sighed a little. Now I'll never get to see this thing.

He turned to the table in the room and found an open manifest.

"Hey check this out," he told Velvet, giving her the subtle signal to film what he was looking at.

"This log is from a ship that sailed from Menagerie," he noted as he read over the volume, "Carrying eight hundred bars of gold, twelve hundred silver, emeralds, golden masks, earrings."

Everyone in the room was seeing Lien signs.

"Holy shit!" Emerald gasped.

"That's a lot of money!" Neo drooled a little.

"Easy there, Sundae," Ilia tried again.

Neo looked down at Sun to see if he reacted. He didn't. "That one might work Rainbow. I liked it!"

Ilia squealed a little at the approval.

Velvet was impressed, "Reading four-hundred-year-old Mistralian? Not just a grave robber after all, huh?" She quipped filming the whole time.

"Wait," Yang asked, "Doesn't everyone on Remnant speak the same language?"

"They didn't always, Miss Xiao-Long," Ozpin responded solemnly, "When more kingdoms existed, language was quite the barrier, but when the Grimm threat became too great, they were abandoned for one common tongue."

Sun ignored her and found what he was looking for, "Right here, a gold statue weighing five hundred pounds. That's gotta be it!"

He turned the page and there was a drawing of El Dorado in all its freaky glory. It had strange designs on the front and a very frightening face carved into it.

Everyone went wide-eyed upon seeing the statue.

"If that thing is made out of gold," Raven muttered, "The tribe could retire off of that thing!"

Qrow scoffed at his sister, "You wouldn't though, because then you'd get weak. And you wouldn't want that would you, sis?"

Raven shrugged off her brother.

"Does anyone else find that thing kinda scary?" Ruby asked timidly.

Velvet, Pyrrha, Oscar, Summer, and Jaune all nodded, while Gordeau tried to keep a straight face.

"Wow!" Velvet absentmindedly commented.

Sun was impressed, "There you are!"

While impressive the statue did not sit well with Velvet, "That thing kinda gives me the creeps."

"Thank you!" The six agreed wholeheartedly.

"Me too," Emerald, to everyone's shock agreed, "Something's wrong with this whole island, I just can't put my finger on it yet."

Sun turned to the next page of the manifest, only to find the rest of the book blank, "Huh, that's the last entry."

"SEE?!" Emerald stated, as she found this to prove her point.

"Yeah, after what she said, I'm even stronger in my resolve to leave," Sun agreed.

He absentmindedly thumbed the ring around his neck, prompting Velvet to ask, "That somebody special?"

Sun was oblivious, "What?"

Velvet rolled her eyes and nodded at the ring. Sun chuckled, "Yeah, I guess you could say that."

"Ooh, does Sun have a girlfriend?" Nora asked, "Who is she? Is she pretty? Is it Blake? Or maybe Ruby? OOH! What if he's married to Neptune!"

Everyone sent weird looks to Nora, Blake, Yang, and Weiss sent death glares, and Ruby and Sun looked wide-eyed at the suggestions the bomber threw out.

Ren sighed, "Nora,"

"Huh," Velvet started trying not to sound disappointed, "I had you pegged as a woman in every port kinda guy."

Weiss scoffed, "No, Sun's at least faithful. That would be Neptune."

Sun sighed, "You know, I never got to talk to you about that, Weiss. He's really not like that at all. Nep acts cool and all, but he has the lowest self esteem of anyone I've ever met. He flirts and acts confident to hide it all."

"It's true!" Jaune agreed, "You do know the reason he turned you down for the dance was because he thought his dancing sucked and didn't want to be embarrassed, right?"

"No," Weiss whispered, "No, I didn't know that. It doesn't make me feel any better about the flirting, though. I wouldn't go to the dance with him again, but I guess I can't hate him if it's just nerves."

Sun smiled and nodded. That was all he had been hoping for.

Sun chuckled again, "Don't I wish!"

"Nope!" Sun responded.

"No, this was ah, this was Francis Wukong's ring. I y'know kinda inherited it." He finished and showed it to Velvet.

"Ahh," Nora pouted.

"Sic Parvis Magna?" Velvet read the ring.

"Greatness from small beginnings," Sun translated, "It was his motto. Check out the date."

Sun, Jaune, Ren, and Nora all beamed at the motto.

"I like that motto," Jaune started, "Even though I was nothing when I started, I can be great now thanks to the effort I put in."

The three others nodded, with Weiss, Winter, and Pyrrha feeling slightly excluded from the saying.

"Twenty ninth of January, 1596," Velvet read.

Sun answered the question on everyone's mind, "One day after he supposedly died."

"So, that's how he knew about the empty coffin!" Roman chuckled, "I keep liking this 'Sir Francis' more and more."

Velvet noticed something else, (while also subconsciously moving closer to Sun), "Wait, what are these numbers right here?"

"Umm, why am I moving closer to him? I can see the ring fine from there!" Velvet asked.

Pyrrha rubbed her neck and put up an awkward smile, "Did we forget to mention that we think alternate you has a thing for Sun? I'm sorry!"

"What?" Velvet blushed at the implications and glared at the Sun in the room.

"Hey, I get it! Alternate universe, I won't overstep here." Sun surrendered, and Velvet turned back satisfied.

"Coordinates," Sun responded, not noticing how close Velvet had gotten, "Right off the coast of Vacuo."

"Oh," Velvet realized, "So that's how you found the coffin."

"Yeah, that's right," Sun stated smugly, "See, Wukong left this as a clue to pinpoint his exact burial site."

"Clever," Tai chuckled, "Follow the clues, find the treasure! Just be sure to pack your scuba gear so you're not COFFIN!"

Yang laughed, while everyone else groaned.

"Well, at least I know where she gets it from now!" Weiss sighed.

Velvet smirked, "For someone clever enough to figure it out."

Sun chuckled, thinking Velvet was tying to convince him to get back to hunting the treasure. Velvet, however, was lost in his eyes.

"Oh no," Velvet hid her eyes behind her ears, "I suck at flirting, even in that world."

"Hey, you're not the only one," Jaune comforted as Weiss groaned.

"Yeah, nice try," Sun rebuked, "but we're still going for that boat."

"But Sun might be about as oblivious as I am to it," Jaune chuckled as Pyrrha lightly jabbed him.

Velvet picked up her camera and Sun showed it the page with El Dorado's picture on it.

"I'm afraid this is as close as we're getting to El Dorado." He finished, still oblivious to Velvet's flirting.

Roman sniffled, "It's a shame really, to leave so empty handed."

"Well, Bunny Girl got her story, so not entirely empty handed," Neo countered.

"Yeah, I bet whatever studio she works for will pay tons of Lien for footage of a lost colony!" Ilia added.

Roman smiled at the two girls attempts to comfort him.

Neo was thinking again. Now she's given me a nickname and helped comfort Roman? I'm so glad I decided to talk to her.

The duo walked through the customs house till they reached a balcony. Velvet, clearly not looking in the direction the boat should be in commented, "Well, I don't see any boat, Sun. Looks like we missed our chance." Just because that wasn't what she meant in the library doesn't mean she wants to leave yet.

"Not gonna change my mind Velvs," Sun teased.

Velvet sighed, "That was pretty obvious wasn't it?"

Sun, however, looked right where the boat was supposed to be and there it was. "No," he chuckled, "There it is! On the other side of the harbor, c'mon." He started to walk away but Velvet didn't move.

"Hey, you know what," Velvet stopped Sun before he could leave, "Why don't I just wait here, and you can, uh, swing around and come back and pick me up."

"She's almost as bad at this as you are, Sun!" Yang laughed out.

Sun lowered his eyes and put his hands on his hips, "Okay," he chuckled, "What are you up to?"

"Nothing," Velvet said unconvincingly, "I just wanna, y'know, stay here and get some more footage." She noticed the look on Sun's face and added, "I'll be safe."

"Not an unreasonable request, given her job," Winter added, "But she could've phrased it better."

Sun smirked, "All right – fine. But promise me you'll stay put."

Velvet didn't say anything, but held her hand up in an unknown gesture and nodded.

Mercury laughed, "What the hell was that?"

Emerald chuckled, "It did look pretty stupid didn't it?"

Cinder smirked, "Indeed."

Sun rolled his eyes, "Whatever that means," he retorted dryly before walking away.

"What did that mean Velvs?" Sun asked.

"I don't know!" Velvet retorted, "It looked strange to me too."

Sun jumped to another balcony, but it crumbled under his weight. He managed to jump to another one, but the sound alerted some goons.

He shot a few through the window before entering a large room with a hole in the ceiling.

A bullhead flew over and Sun commented, "Ah, who's this now?" He looked closer and realized something, "Wait, that's not one of Tyrian's."

"Looks like the dynamic duo are back in the picture finally," Qrow realized.

Roman looked at him in shock, "Hey, you're using my nicknames!"

Qrow chuckled, "It was a good one, Candle-brain!"

Roman just looked at the man with admiration. I think I just found a new best friend!

That's when goons started piling into the room. Noticing a sniper rifle on the balcony, he grabbed it and with five shots took out five goons including one operating a turret.

"Snipers forever!" Ruby cheered from her seat. "Kick their butts, Sun!"

He ran over, grabbing a M4 on his way and took down two more before reaching the turret. He then used the turret to take out the remaining goons.

"What an intense fight!" Pyrrha commented, "That was great on the fly thinking with the rifle and the turret!"

Sun chuckled, "Yeah, I was pretty awesome, huh?"

Nora pouted, "No explosions, what a rip-off."

As Sun left the room, he realized he'd finally reached the boat, but it was guarded by more goons. He got into cover and prepped himself to take them out.

Suddenly, Velvet appeared behind him, "Hey," she announced herself quietly.

"Didn't Sun tell you to stay put?" Ilia questioned.

Ren, of all people, snickered, "And how many of us ever obey that order when it's given?"

Only Winter nodded, proving Ren's point.

Sun looked at her in shock, "How did you get here?"

"That," Weiss started, "Is actually an excellent point. It's not like you could go the same way Sun did with the collapsed balcony."

Velvet thought for a moment, then shrugged out a suggestion, "Bunny hops?"

Everyone froze and turned to Velvet. They stared for a second before erupting into laughter.

"Wow," Yang commented pulling herself together, "Velvs got jokes!"

Velvet smiled widely; she'd never made a whole room laugh like this before.

Velvet ignored him, "You really need to see this!"

Sun thought it was another ploy to get him to stay, "Now is really not the best time." He refocused on the boat.

He got out and was about to take a shot when Velvet pulled him back down, "No – Sun,"

Sun was furious, "What are you doing?"

No one said anything. They were trying to figure out what could be so important that she would interrupt Sun's attempts to save them.

She ignored him again, "You really need to watch this just…"

Sun tried to refocus on the boat but the goons had driven it away.

Sun rolled his eyes in defeat, "What?"

Velvet played the video; Taurus was, ironically, getting into a bullhead.

"Well this proves that Bully-Boy is back, but I don't think it warranted an interruption," Roman stated, taking a drink after he finished.

Yang snickered, "Anyone else find it slightly ironic that Adam is getting into a bullhead?"

Groans was all the response Yang got.

Suddenly, Jacque and a man wearing a familiar looking bowler hat walked toward the bullhead.

Roman did a spit take, "How!?"

The man turned around to reveal non-other than Roman Torchwick, alive and well, and seemingly helping Jacque Schnee find El Dorado.

Most of the audience's jaws dropped. Neo went wide-eyed, "How? How did you survive a bullet to the chest?"

Roman was stunned speechless.

Cinder smirked, "Maybe dear Roman isn't as trustworthy as you all thought! Learn that lesson now, so it doesn't bite you in the ass later!"

Neo went pale, "No! He thinks of Sun as his son in this universe! He'd never betray him, right Roman?" her lip quivered and it was clear she wasn't talking about the viewing anymore, "You'd never betray me, right?"

Roman stuttered, "I… I don't know, kid." Roman looked down as Neo's world crashed apart, "I don't see any other way this version of me could've survived."

Neo broke down into tears and turned away from Roman as he tried to continue, "Kid, it's an alternate universe, I would never,"

"SHUT UP!" Neo snapped, turning back to him and standing up, "Just because it's a different universe doesn't mean that's not you! You have the same capacity as that one does. Were you even dead, Roman?" she was crying and screaming in anger at the same time, "Or were you working with someone else leaving me behind?" she paused for a moment, Roman tried to interject but she continued, "You really would betray me if it meant you surviving! Even though you said you wouldn't." Neo's sobs were uncontrollable, "You were my one thing, Roman. And now, you've abandoned me too." Neo turned away from the now sobbing Roman, and walked to the end of the row, followed closely by Ilia.

As the duo sat, Ilia pulled up the armrest in-between them. She pulled Neo into a giant hug, "I'm so sorry, Sundae." She whispered softly, as Neo whimpered. Ilia went to pull away, but Neo clung tightly.

"Don't let go," she whimpered, "Please, don't let go Rainbow!"

Ilia smiled softly as she pulled the ice-cream girl closer. They settled down into the seat, Ilia's arm around Neo, and Neo curled up cuddling into Ilia's side.

Meanwhile, Roman had his face in his hands, crying himself. Qrow felt sorry for the man, and patted his back, "Hey, she just need's time to process this. I'm sure she'll realize this isn't you in time."

Roman looked up at the man, sniffling, "I don't know. I just don't know about that, Bird-Brain. I love that girl. She's like my daughter for godssake. I feel like the worst parent figure ever right now!"

Winter from a little way away scoffed, "You're not the worst, Torchwick. While I definitely don't like you, you're still a much better parent than Jacques could ever be."

Yang nodded from in front of them, "And you're ten times better than my mother."

"Yang!" Summer yelled. She was about to scold her daughter, when Raven interrupted her.

"No, she's right Summer. I'm a terrible parent. Roman picked this kid up off the streets and took her in out of the kindness of his heart. I left my new-born baby with her father because I was too afraid of commitment."

"See, Roman?" Qrow nodded, "Just let her realize this, she'll come around."

Roman glanced over and saw the two girls cuddled together, "Well, at least she has someone else now too." All the parents nodded in agreement as they turned back to the viewing.

"He's alive, Sun!" Velvet commented.

Sun couldn't say anything, he was speechless.

The audience felt the same way, especially with the outburst that had just happened.

"I don't know Sun." Velvet warned, "I mean, how much do you trust this guy? It's not exactly like their holding him at gun point." She was rightfully suspicious. She had only known the man briefly.

Cinder smirked as she saw Roman groan and Neo shoot him a death glare.

Sun finally snapped out of it, "Yeah, I know, it seems weird," he paused and collected his thoughts, "But no. Torchwick's a lot of things, but he's not a back-stabber."

"Or is he?" Emerald taunted with a sing-song voice.

Neo mumbled under her breath, "That's what I thought too." Only Ilia heard her and pulled her in closer.

Roman started sobbing again, "But what if I am? What if all I can do is betray the people I come into contact with." He muttered quietly, causing Qrow to shoot him a worried glance.

Sun unfolded his map and asked, "Which way were they headed?"

Velvet stuttered, "Uh, north-ish," she started before gaining confidence, "Yeah, towards the mountains."

Yang tried to ease the tension, "Great direction skills there, Velvs."

"At least I got the mountains thing right," Velvet meekly retorted.

Spirits lifted a little with the light hearted exchange, save for Neo and Roman.

Sun nodded, "Okay," he examined the map, "It's gotta be the monastery. Let's go."

Velvet wasn't convinced, "What if it turns out he's working with them?"

Sun looked at her with a fire in his eyes, "We either rescue him, or we beat the crap out of him." He chuckled before continuing, "Hell, I might just beat the crap out of him anyway."

Gordeau sighed, "Okay, let's let everyone take a five-minute break and regather themselves. Then we'll continue watching."

Ilia silently thanked the man, and helped Neo to the bathroom. Roman got up as soon as they were out.

"Where are you going?" Qrow asked as Roman headed for the door.

"To get a drink." Roman replied sadly before walking out.

The parents all exchanged glances before their eyes settled on Qrow, "Alright," the man sighed as he stood up, "I'll go make sure he doesn't kill himself. Again." Qrow walked out, hoping he could pull Roman to his senses.

AN: Only super important thing that happened this chapter is the giant fight between Neo and Roman. If you've played the game before, you hopefully know where this is going. There will be no break chapter next, just two quick conversations between Ilia and Neo, and between Qrow and Roman. I hope this section didn't put anyone off of this story.
