The camera opens up to red team standing, well, hiding, by a fence at the Atlas base. He is watching Weiss walk through the air base and get on a plane. He then looks around and spots multiple warthogs. His eyes widen and a big smile grows on his face.

Asher:"He did it."

Simmons:"Who did what?"

Asher:*Points to the warthogs.* "Ironwood made more warthogs!"

Grif:"Those death traps."

Asher:"This is a mans dream come true. Now we need to get in the base."

Simmons:"But that's not part of the plan."

Asher:"Then we'll make it part of the plan."

Grif:"Oh no."

Asher then starts to climb the fence and he jumps on the other side. Asher turns to his team.

Asher:"Come on, let's go."

Simmons and Grif look to each other. Then they climb the fence. Red team sneaks their way to the warthogs. The Ruby contacts Asher.

Ruby:*Radio*"Asher where are you?"

Asher:*Radio*"Um.. Improvising."

Ruby:*Radio*"What?!"

Asher:*Radio*"Okay I saw some warthogs and I have to drive one."

Ruby:*Radio* "But thats.."

Asger:*Radio*"Oh no your breaking up, I can't hear you."

Asher turns off his radio.

Simmons:"Are you sure this is a good idea, sir?"

Asher:"The best."

Grif:"I don't like this."

They were able to get to a warthog without being spotted.

Grif:*Quickly.* "Shotgun!"

Simmons:*Second later.* "Shotgun! Fuck!"

They all get in, Grif in the passenger, Simmons on the gun and Asher driving. Asher turns on the warthog. A familiar music plays on the radio.

(Red Vs. Blue warthog music)

Grif:"Why does this play everytime we get in this."

Asher:"It's mandatory for it to play, grif."

Asher starts to drive away and a voice is heard over another radio.

Man:*Radio*"Warthod 2-5 where are you going."

Asher grabs the radio.

Asher:*Radio* "Just doing a maintenance check."

Man:*Radio* "Who are you?"

Asher:"How did that not work."

Man:*Man* "We don't have kids in our army."

Asher pulls out dust and shoot the other radio.

Asher:"I guess he didn't know about us."

Simmons:"This is such a bad idea."

Asher drives toward where everyone is. There on the side of the cliff. And suddenly the ground shakes and Asher looks to see a giant robot. Asher turns his radio back on.

Asher:*Radio* "This isn't my fault right?"

Ruby:*Radio* "Asher! Don't turn off your radio next time."

Asher:*Radio* "What's going on."

Weiss:*Radio*"Blake didn't turn off the tower. Something must be wrong."

Grif:*Radio*"Blake's a strong girl, I'm sure she can handle herself."

Ruby:*radio*"I hope your right."

Simmons:*Radio* "So what's the plan now?"

Ruby:*Radio*"We need to stop the robot."

Asher:*Radio* "Today is a good day to die! Simmons fire!"

Simmons:"Okay."

He start to shoot at the robot.

Ruby:*Radio*"Can you distract her Asher?"

Asher:*Radio*"Do you know who you're talking too?"

The radio is silent for a few seconds.

Ruby:*Radio* "Yeah, you got this."

Asher laughs as he dodges a rocket.

Grif:"This is the worst idea ever."

Asher drifts to avoid a fist from the robot.

Asher:*Yelling to the robot.* "You're too slow."

Cordovin:*Radio* "Are you sure about that?"

They look to see a bunch of missiles head towards them.

Asher:"Uh oh"

(Play RWBY volume 6 - Rising)

Simmons:*Panicking* "Back up! back up!"

Asher drives backwards and a few missiles hit where they were. Asher turns the car around and a few missiles fly past them. A missle hits next to them making the car almost slide off the cliff but Asher turns the wheel and the back tires graze the edge.

Ruby:*Radio*"Where ready."

Asher:*Radio*"Just in time."

The others engane the robot.

Asher continues to drive and he looks down to the cup holder and spots a pair of aviators.

Asher:"Alright!"

He grabs them and puts them on.

Asher:*Radio*"How we looking?"

Ruby:*Radio* "There's a shield generator we need to get rid of."

Asher:*Radio* "Well then"

A missle hits behind them.

Grif:"I am never getting in one of these, after this!"

Asher:"Stop whining."

The Ruby comes over the radio.

Ruby:*Radio* "Asher We need to get in the cannon. So let's use 'Spinning Roses.'"

A smile comes over Asher's face and he drives towards the group. He looks to Grif.

Asher:"Grif you drive now."

Grif:*Surprised.* "What?!"

Asher then gets on the roof of the Warthog and Grif gets into the driver seat. Asher sees Ruby waiting for him near the cliff and she jumps of and Asher does too. Ruby puts Crescent Rose into scythe form. Asher grabs the blade and they both use their semblances to create a spinning wheel of orange and red. They are a blur of orange and red when they fly up. Asher throws Ruby down the barrel of the giant gun of the Robot. Asher continues to fly up.

Asher:"Come one Ruby." *He Yells.* "DO IT RUBY!"

An explosion happens in the gun and Ruby gets launched out.

Cordovin:*Radio*"What? No. NO!"

Asher uses his semblance to catch Ruby and he uses his body to break their fall. They land on the ground and a metal crack is heard. They slide a few feet and they stop. Everyone runs up to them. Asher's aura is flashing. Ruby sits up slowly and looks to Asher.

Ruby:*Worried.* "Are you alright?"

Asher:*Sits up.* "I'm alright."

He brings his left arm up to give a thumbs up but his arms is sparking. He looks at it and there is a big slash in the arm and wires are coming out all cut up and sparking. He tires to move his hand but it's delayed and slow.

Asher:*Sighs*"Well mostly alright."

Asher grabs his two weapons and checks them. Dust's sword it chipped and cracked. Panny's sword only has a few scratches. The necklace is fine. He checks his cape and it's fine.  Asher sighs in relief. 

Qrow runs up to them and kneels next to them.

Qrow:"Are you two alright."

Ruby:"Told ya."

Asher:"Yeah."

Next to them the plane powers up. Asher slowly stands up. His arm malfunctions a little and freaks out. Asher hits it and it stops. Asher takes a few deep breaths. He hears the warthog drive up to them. Grif and Simmons hop out.

Simmons:"Sir, are you alright."

Asher:*Chuckles.* "Everyone keeps asking. Yeah I'm mostly fine." *He gestures to his left arm as it sparks a little.* "Arms a little broken."

Grif:"That's not good."

Asher:*Waves him off.* "It's fine."

Cordovin:*Radio*"No! No, no, no!"

Her big robot gun is to heavy to move so the robot is stuck.

Cordovin:*Radio*"You! You're never getting to Atlas, do you hear me! Never! All forces coverage on my position and eliminate these pests at once."

Oscar:"Crap!"

Maria:"Everyone on board! We're making a run for it."

Jaune:"What about Yang and Blake?"

Asher:"We can't leave without them."

Atlas Soldier:*Radio*"Ma'am we've been trying to reach you. Argus is in danger."

Cordovin:*Radio*"What?"

Asher and Ruby run up to the edge of the cliff. 

Astals Soldier:*Radio*"It's a Leviathan, it began its approach during your battle. We need you!"

Asher:*He looks on in horror.* "This is our fault." 

Air control:*Radio*"All units be advised, Leviathan-class Grimm has submerged but is still on approach. Preparing hard light shields, over!"

Pilot:*Radio* "We're getting slammed by hostiles out her! Where is Cordovin?"

Simmons:"What are we going to do?"

Grif:"I don't know."

Asher bends over and puts his hands on his knees.

Cordovin:*Radio*"This is your fault! Do you hear me?"

Yang:"Ruby, Asher!"

They all turn to  see Yang and Blake running up to them. 

Ruby/Asher:"Yang, Blake! Are you okay?"

Blake sees the giant robot with a bunch of ice and rocks on it's arms.

Blake:"What happened."

The leviathan roars in the distance. 

Yang:"Was that a giant Grimm?"

Weiss:"Yes, and we just ruined the only thing capable of stopping it."

Everyone gets on the plane and start to fly away. Ruby and Asher are standing by the door. Then they go inside.

Blake:"I'm so sorry."

Yang:"Don't be. This isn't on you."

Blake:"But--"

Ruby:"You're safe, that's all that matters." *Blake and Ruby hug.*

Maria:"I suppose I have to be the bad guy and say it. Getting the lamp to Atlas is still our top priority. And right now we have the perfect opportunity to head straight for it. We may not get another chance like this."

Yang:"No way!"

Weiss:"We can't leave, not like this."

Blake:"It's like you said, a Huntress is supposed to protect others to the bitter end."

Ruby and Asher looks to each other and nod.

Ruby/Asher:"Twin moment."

Then they look to the others.

Ruby:"We need to head for the Leviathan. Jaune, can you and Ren be ready to mask out ship?"

Ren and Jaune look to each other then back at them.

Ren:"I think we can manage."

Jaune:"Got a few ideas?"

Ruby/Asher:"We've got one."

Qrow:"Eyes up, everybody, it's back."

The Leviathan resurfaces and roars. 

Pilot:*Radio*"Argus Base, this is Manta 3-4. Leviathan has hit the shallows and resurfaced. We need those shields up now, over!"

The shields go up and the Leviathan hits it.

Pilot:*Radio*"Target stopped, engaging, over!"

Planes start to bomb it. It shoots fire at the shield tower and blows it up.

Oscar:"It tore straight through."

Air Control:*Radio*"All squadrons, fall back to evacuation procedures. Disengage Leviathan! I repeat, disengage, over!"

Ruby:"No Wait!" *She runs up to the radio.*

Qrow:"Ruby!"

Ruby:*Grabs the radio.* "We can stop it!"

Asher walks up to her.

Ari control:*Radio* "Who is this? Identify yourself!"

Ruby:"I'm a Huntress. My team and I are heading to the Leviathan and can weaken it for you to attack."

Jaune:"We can?"

Ruby grabs Asher's hand.

Ruby:"We can."

Maria:"Ruby, when I said trial by fire-"

Ruby:"I did it at Beacon and Me and Asher did it at the farm."

Weiss:"You really think you two can do it now?"

Asher:"We don't have a choice."

Air control:*Radio*"Manta 5-1, your ship is currently flagged as hostile. You will receive no support, over."

The plane gets closer.

Ruby:"Fine, we'll do it alone if we have to."

Grif:"I don't like that."

Simmons:"We've got this."

Grif groans.

Ruby:"We can hit it while it's stopped at the next barrier. Ren, You're up!"

Jaune grabs his should and activate his semblance. Ren masks the ship and they fly close to the leviathan. The Leviathan get ready to shoot fire from it mouth.

Qrow:"We're too late, pull up!"

They barely dodge it. The leviathan breaks the shield. Jaune and Ren fall onto their knees.

Jaune:"Damn it!"

Ren:"That's all I've got!"

Blake:"It's on the move again. We need to stop it!"

Yang:"What do we do?"

Ruby and Asher look to each other then to Weiss.

Then Nora, Yang and Simmons and Grif are shooting at the Leviathan. Ruby and Asher are on top of one of Weiss's summons.

Ruby:"Okay, Okay, you can do this."

Asher:"This has to be one of the craziest things I have ever done."

Ruby/Asher:"We have to do this."

They are flown to the front of the Leviathan. Asher and Ruby are getting ready.

Yang:*Radio*"Ruby, Asher, Hurry, something-" *They turn off their radios.*

Then they both start to think about the good times, then they start to think about the bad. Asher and Ruby open their eyes to see the Leviathan standing in front of them looking at them.

Ruby:"What?"

Asher:"Not good!"

Then they both realized that Ruby as the relic. 

Ruby:"No,no, no no!"

The Leviathan goes to bite them.

Asher/Ruby:"Jinn!"

Time stops and Jin appears in front of them. They both breath heavily.

Asher:"We're sorry."

Ruby:"We don't have a question for you. I just, we just needed a little more time."

Jinn:"I know. And while you don't seek knowledge, Just this once, I shall give it freely. I will not allow you to use me without a question again. Even if this was clever."

Asher and Ruby nod. They turn back to the leviathan and think about all the good moments. Time starts to resume. Asher and Ruby's final happy thought is of their mother, Summer. Their silver eyes activate. Turning all Grimm nearby to stone. Including the Leviathan. Asher collapse onto Ruby exhausted. 

Asher:"Is this always this tiring."

Ruby:"You get used to it."

Then the cracking of stone is heard and they look leviathan. It freed it's head from the stone. It roars at them.

Asher/Ruby:"No."

Cordovin:*Radio*"I'll take it from here!"

They look to see the giant robot missing it's right arm. Cordoving runs up to the Leviathan changing its hand into a drill. 

Crodovin:*Radio*"After all, I was sworn to protect the people!"

She drills the leviathan head killing it. It turns into dust. Cordovin walks up to the two and opens the face hatch. 

Ruby:"Thank you and I'm sorry."

Cordovin:"The Atlas military can handle the stragglers."

Asher:"What, what are you saying?"

Cordovin:"I'm saying I don't think anyone would notice if one more ship went missing in my length report." *She closes the face and walks away.*

Later. Everyone is on the ship and it's night time. Asher has his head on Weiss's lap with his eye closed. She is stroking his hair.

(Play RWBY volume 6 - Fight to Atlas)

Maria:"We should have enough fuel to make it."

Ruby:"Thanks, Miss Calavera."

Qrow:"Hey, Ruby? You and Asher did great out there today, kid. Just don't go giving me heart attacks like that again." *Ruby hugs him*

Ruby:"I love you, too."

The camera moves to the back. Grif and Simmons are sitting down next to each other. Simmons is playing on his scroll and Grif is asleep. Blake and Yang are sitting next to Weiss and Asher.

Weiss:"I'm sorry you went through that nightmare. But, I'm glad Yang was there for you in time."

Asher opens his eye.

Asher:"Nice job sis." 

He gives her a thumbs up with his robot hand. Then it sparks and falls limp.

Asher:"Darn."

Yang:"We were there for each other."

Nora:"Took the words right out of my mouth."

They all look to Asher and Ruby. 

Asher/Ruby:"Hey, stop it."

Ren:"You both petrified a Leviathan and after Ruby dived down the barrel of a cannon!"

Ruby nervously laughs.

Ruby:"Don't act like you all haven't done crazy stuff before!"

She looks around then points to Oscar.

Ruby:"I mean, Oscar made a successful crash landing! He's a 14 year old farm hand!"

Asher:"The one thing I can't do. So that means he is crazier than me."

Weiss shuts him up with a kiss.

Jaune:"That was seriously impressive."

Blake:"We'd have been stranded without you."

Simmons:"It was pretty cool."

Oscar:"I - thanks but, I've been meaning to tell you guys. I didn't land the ship on my own." *He tells them what happened.*

Nora:"Ozpin took control?"

OScar:"No, he guided me. And then he was gone again."

Blake:"Does that mean he's been watching us this whole time?"

Oscar:"I don't know, but, it at least means he was looking out for us."

Qrow then speaks up. 

Qrow:"Hey, If you've never seen Atlas in person before you don't wanna miss this."

Asher stands up and goes and looks out the front window. So does everyone else.

Ruby:"Is it weird that I'm sorta nervous?"

Yang:"No, I'll believe we've made it to Atlas when I see it."

Weiss:"Well, believe it."

They move through the clouds and spot Atlas.  

Asher:"Wow."

Maria:"You know, you make the trip up to Atlas over and over, but you never get used to that view."

Asher:"We did it."

Ruby:"Weiss, what is it?"

They look to see the whole Atlas air fleet.

Weiss:"The Atlas air fleet. I knew all of our ships were called back, but..."

Qrow:"They're set up like they're expecting an attack."

Asher:"Who's gonna attack them?"

Then a female voice comes over the radio.

Air control:*Radio*"Manta 5-1, welcome home."

The camera pans to a view of the ship then turns black.
