A tall man clad in a white trench coat completed with a black undershirt and tie walked towards a long corridor, followed by two figures covered in leather armour and masks.

The man stopped after seeing two soldiers guarding their destination which read,

"Administration Room" on the glass door.

He straightened his tie and his posture. Then, he stopped his companions, indirectly telling them that he had this.

He walked straight up to the guards who wore heavy armour and they both saluted him. The man proceeded to the door. He took out a white card from his chest pocket, scanned it, and the door opened before him and he went inside.

His companions followed, not before stabbing the guards straight into the heart.

A few seconds later, the screen of the security camera went black.

Jaune's Point of View

It was getting cold outside. It was in the middle of the night. I was inside my room, my teammates asleep. Christmas was coming and our room had festive decorations everywhere

Everyone but me was asleep. Nora, who somehow got into Ren's bed, was snoring loudly whilst hugging him with one arm and the other in an awkward position. Despite all of that, Ren slept like a rock.

I got out of bed and walked towards the door, not before looking at our cereal mascot. Even when asleep, she was the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. Well, of course, before Ice Queen. She had a cute way of breathing, through the nose and a little puff from the mouth.

My eyes were then attracted to her lips. Her cherry lips looked so soft that I could swallow them whole. She didn't need makeup to look this beautiful. I found myself entranced and didn't realize that I was getting closer and closer the her face until..

*SMACK*

I got slapped on the face by her. Damn, even when asleep, she still packs a punch.

"Ahaha.." I rubbed my face with embarrassment.

I looked at the portable bed and I realized my sister was missing.

"She probably went to the toilet or something..." I shrugged it off. It's my sister we're talking about. She'll be fine.

I found my Mors lying on the weapon rack and picked it up. And then, I closed the door behind me.

I walked through the silent hallways. It was kind of creepy at night when there's no one. I found the lift and I headed for the rooftop.

With a small ding, a beautiful scenery gazed upon me at the dark sky. It was filled with sparkling stars and the lights of the Academy managed to make this place looked beautiful.

I recalled all those moments that I had in the past. The training with Pyrrha, the fight with Cardin. Those were the times.

I held up my Mors and got into my fighting stance. I focused and imagined there were enemies rushing towards me. I tried to lessen my movements and as swiftly as possible, I prepared to strike and that's when an explosion threw me off balanced.

Pyrrha's Point of View

I jumped out of bed as everything shook around me. Stuff dropped from their original position. And in about 3 seconds later, our room was a mess.

"What the... Nora, are you okay?" Ren shook his childhood friend as she was unaffected by the shake and continued sleeping. Was the shake so powerful that she dropped to Ren's bed?

But it didn't matter the most. I glanced at our leader's bed but it was empty. Jean's was empty too. Where could have they gone?

"Emergency! Damage to 3rd Floor! Please evacuate in a calm and orderly manner! "A female robotic voice echoed around the whole school.

"Considering the damage, it's probably a Level 2 Emergency. Let's go Pyrrha."

We raced to the Auditorium where a transparent defensive barrier covered us students. We met Team RWBY beside us

"Where are Jaune and Jean?" Ruby asked.

"They were gone when we woke up. They probably heard the warning so it's ok!" I reassured her but I felt otherwise myself.

"Look! Professor Ozpin is coming!" The crowd said.

Professor Ozpin hurriedly walked to the stage with a serious look on his face. Professor Glynda followed behind him.

He came closer to the mic and the moment he touched it, another explosion was set off where Professor Ozpin was.

Gasps came from the crowd. "No..." I uttered in disbelief.

In the distance, gunfire started which caused most of the students to panic.

Jaune's Point of View

I stood up after the blast had knocked me down.

"What in the world?" I said as I looked over the edge of the rooftop to see what had happened.

The main building had a large missing piece on it. What would they want in the main building?

Suddenly, my ears picked up a second blast but not as strong as before. I quickly glanced at the other side of the rooftop and shock came over me.

Students had assembled at the Auditorium for the protection of the barrier. And in front of them the stage had been severely damaged, causing the students to panic.

"Damn it! I have to get there!" I grabbed my sword and raced down the stairs only to be stopped.

Suspicious-looking men wearing leathered armour drew out guns. They had a sword at their back each.

I hid myself in a room before they noticed me as they continued running towards the hallways of the dorm.

I continued running, snaking past enemies, to where my Team is. I just hoped they're in a better scenario than I am in.

Pyrrha's Point of View

"Let's get out of here!" A student suggested and some of the students tried to run out of the the barrier, only to be pushed back by an unknown force.

"Crap... We're stuck in the barrier." Ren cursed.

We were where the enemy wanted us to be.

Suddenly a tall man clad in white trench coat completed with a black undershirt and tie walked up aisle. He had a black top hat and wore a "sad face" mask. A small "heart" that looked like on the deck of cards was tattooed on his neck.

He took out his mask revealing his face. He had green and orange eyes. Two hearts were that were green and orange were tattooed under his eyes. He also head orange wavy hair.

"Greetings! Fellow students of Beacon! I am your host, Phantom Joker!" He smiled. He looked at us with eyes that had the word written "crazy" over it.

Immediately, I felt totally uncomfortable.
