Jaune, Pyrrha and Ozpin rushed down the hall, green lights flashing by.
"What is this place?" Jaune asked, looking around.
"It's...a type of vault" Pyrrha answered.
"You've been here before?" jaune asked, shocked. Pyrrha didn't respond. "What would this school have to hide?" he asked to no one in particular. At that moment, they arrived at the end of the hall. "What.."
In front of him were what looked like glass topped coffins with lots of high tech stuff in between. The one on the right ws empty, however, the left one had a girl inside, a girl with a heavily scarred face.
Pyrrha turned around to face Jaune "Jaune.." she began
"Pyrrha, get to the pod" Ozpin interrupted, pointing to the empty one. Pyrrha hesitated, before going over to it. Ozpin looked Directly at Jaune. "Mr Arc, if you would like to help, you can stand guard here" he said, his tone deadly serious.
Deciding to follow, he turned around, holding his shield at the ready, while listening to what was happening behind him.
"What do we do now?" asked Pyrrha, watching as Ozpin typed on a screen.
"We….do nothing" he replied. Suddenly the pod opened with a hiss of escaping air."You, Miss Nikos, have a choice to make"
Pyrrha looked at the pod, then over at Jaune, standing guard. She knew there was only one right choice. Wiping away a tear, she climbed into the pod, which closed behind her. Ozpin continued to type furiously as a rumble shook the building.
"Are you ready?" he asked, looking at Pyrrha, who nodded. "I…" he hesitated. "I need to hear you say it" Ozpin said, sounding almost panicked.
"Yes"
"Thank you Miss Nikos" Ozpin typed one last command into the terminal. The other pod rose up, and suddenly golden colored light was flowing, from the left pod to the right. Pyrrha screamed, feeling as if she were being overfilled with air and would pop at any second.
"Pyrrha!" shouted Jaune, turning to face her.
"I'm...so sorry" said Ozpin.
Then an arrow flew through the air, embedding itself in the control panel.
"No!" shouted Ozpin as the panel smoked and crackled with electricity, before the whole contraption, including both pods, were engulfed in a terrible explosion.
