Ruby Yang and Blake didn't know what to do.
None dared approach the alcove holding the stone slab, or the one projecting that mist. Weiss was gone. Disintegrated? Vaporized? We're they breathing her in even now? Perhaps she was invisible, unable to touch, be touched, or heard?
Pyrrha and Ren reasoned that away right quick, and made people try to think, but that wasn't what was interesting Blake at the moment...
His team had been in pairs over a close by hill, keeping watch against the Grimm's most likely direction of approach. They came running when Blake had told them Weiss had vanished over the radio function, and then Jaune...
Jaune had taken a single look at the seal on the door and blanched, looked inside and froze.
Only Blake had noticed in the rush to explain. Blake dragged him away quietly. She doubted, somehow, that he needed to hear the story...

Weiss didn't know where she was, but she had a hunch. If this theory was correct, she needed to get back now, or she simply could not return. Not due to any physical inability. Well, not at first. But simply due to an inherent morality and fear that every person, Human and Faunus alike, shared.
She looked around, their were rather dark and frightening trees. Huh, it had been just about late dawn not more then five minutes ago. She looked up, and saw stars. The shattered moon lay across the eastern horizon, and the farther yellow one lay behind and above it, much farther away.
The shaky girl looked down, and saw stars.
She blinked. Well, at least the void below her feet lacked any moons. That'd just be odd.
She was currently standing upon a material so transparent that her brain told her that the center of the planet was, in fact, a stray void.
The 'glass' sat in a stone platform, and four stone arches rose around her, pointing half between the nautical directions. Gargoyles sat in the outer parts of the arches.
"Right, enough sight-seeing!" she snapped herself out of her shock.
"What was the last thing I was doing before I appeared in the middle of Oh-God-No land? Ah, right."
She quickly dropped to the platform, pressing her ear to the 'glass'. She held that position for a moment, before moving into a crouch. 'Thats apparently not how you activate this... Thing. Makes sense. So...' she tried to think back. The last thing she heard was a clunk. The thing activating? No... 'Her rapier! She hadn't checked it yet!' She drew it, noticing the lack of weight straight off.
"Damn..." she snarled. Dust. It used her Dust. Back in the age of this... Transporter. Dust must have been first used in highly secret projects. Explains the sudden upswing in use halfway through the aforementioned Dynasty. Fifth? Eighth? Whatever. She was to busy thinking of Dust.
'The whatever that was probably used... Not very much of my very high quality Dust from the modern era! If she could figure out how to trigger it, she might be able to get back!'
Hopefully before the Radiation rendered her too toxic to be allowed back into Kingdom territory.

"Jaune... What do you know?"
