04x12 - No Safe Haven

[bunniefuu]

♪ It used to feel like a fairy tale. ♪

♪ Now it seems we were just pretending. ♪

♪ We’d fix our world, then ♪
♪ on our way to a happy ending ♪

♪ Then it turned out life ♪
♪ was far less like a bedtime story ♪

♪ Than a tragedy with no big ♪
♪ reveal of the heroes' glory ♪

♪ And it seems we weren’t prepared ♪

♪ for a game that wasn’t fair ♪

♪ Do we just go home? ♪

♪ Can we follow through? ♪

♪ When all hope is gone, ♪

♪ there is one thing we can do ♪

♪ Day by day ♪

♪ And not be conquered by our sorrows! ♪

♪ The past can’t hold us down, ♪

♪ Inside we're torn apart ♪

♪ But time will mend our hearts ♪

♪ Move onward ♪

♪ Not there yet ♪

NORA: Stop looking!

REN: Guh!

JAUNE: Ren! Knock it off!

REN: Nora, let go!

Nora, they’re going to get hurt if we don’t-

NORA: No.

I won’t let you k*ll yourself like this.

After everything we’ve been through,

I won’t let it end.

NORA: Not like this.

NORA: We can do this.

RUBY: Ren.

Jaune and I can take care of its arms.

NORA: I’ll take care of the horse.

REN: And I’ll take care of the rest.

QROW: It’s quiet.

Good job, kiddo.

JAUNE: Guys! I think I hear something!

JAUNE: How did you find us out here?

MISTRAL PILOT: We were on patrol and saw the smoke.

Nobody’s been out here for years,

thought something might be wrong.

RUBY: What if we don’t make it in time?

JAUNE: Ruby.

RUBY: We made it, Uncle Qrow.

RUBY: Hey sis,

I hope my letters have
been reaching you and Dad.

Hand-written stuff’s never
been super reliable, but

I guess it’s all
we’ve got these days.

Anyway, in case you
haven’t been getting them,

I want to say I’m sorry
for leaving the way I did.

I know you told me it
was a reckless idea, and

after everything I’ve been through,
I can definitely say you were right.

It’s been hard, on all of us,

and I’m not just talking about
the monsters we fought out here.

ATLAS PILOT: Okay, you can hide
out back in the cargo hold.

I’ll take you as far as I can,
but if we get caught,

you’re on your own. Understand? I’ll take you
as far as I can, but if we get caught,

you’re on your own. Understand?

RUBY: Every step we made took us further

and further away from the things we knew

And every morning we woke up wondering,

if just over the next
hill would be something good

or something terrible.

RUBY: It’s scary, not knowing
what’s going to happen next.

And the things we do know now,

just how bad it can get,

It almost makes it all worse.

RUBY: You told me once that
bad things just happen.

(SOUNDS OF FANS CHEERING)
RUBY: You told me once that bad things just happen.

You were angry when you said it,
RUBY: You told me once that bad things just happen.

You were angry when you said it,

and I didn’t want to listen.

But you were right,

bad things do happen,

all the time, every day.

Which is why I’m out here,

to do whatever I can,

wherever I can,

(PHOTO SAYS: NEW FRIENDS!!! ♥︎)

and hopefully do some good.


and hopefully do some good.

RUBY: We’ve all lost something,

and I’ve seen what
loss can do to people.

But if we gave up
every time we lost,

then we’d never be
able to move forward.

RUBY: We’d never have a
chance to see what beautiful things

the future might have waiting for us.

We’d never have the strength to change;

whether it’s ourselves,

or the world around us.

RUBY: And we’d never be
there for other people

who might one day be lost without us.

RUBY: This is what we
were training for, Yang,

to become Huntresses,
RUBY: This is what we were training for, Yang,

to become Huntresses,

to be the ones to stand up and

do something about all
the bad in the world.

TRAIN ANNOUNCER: Approaching, City of Mistral.

RUBY: Because there are plenty
of people out there who are still lost

and even more who will try to
gain everything they can from their sorrow.

RUBY: Believe me when I say,
I know it can feel impossible,

like every single day is a
struggle against some

unstoppable monster we can never hope to b*at.
like every single day is a struggle against some

unstoppable monster we can never hope to b*at.

RUBY: So we have to try,

if not for us,

then for the people we’ve already-

t̶h̶e̶n̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶p̶e̶o̶p̶l̶e̶ ̶w̶e̶’̶v̶e̶ ̶a̶l̶r̶e̶a̶d̶y̶

Then for the people we haven’t lost yet.

I miss you so much.

I miss Weiss and Blake too.

But I think you’d all be proud
to know that I made it to Mistral.

All of us did,

and we even ran into
Uncle Qrow along the way!

QROW: Hey,

aren’t I normally the one saving you?

RUBY: He’s going to take
us to see Professor Lionheart,

the headmaster of Haven Academy.

And, he told us some things
that you’re gonna wanna hear,

things I can’t trust will
make it to you in this letter.

RUBY: But maybe,

if you joined us, he could tell you himself.
RUBY: But maybe,

if you joined us,
he could tell you himself.

With Beacon gone, they’ll
need Dad at Signal more than ever,

and I know you need
to focus on yourself

before I can expect
you to come out with me.

But it sure would be great to
get Team RWBY back together again.

YANG: You are in so much
trouble when I find you.

Until next time, your
loving sister, Ruby Rose.

RUBY: Oh! Uh, PS.

I’ll be sure to give you the
address of where we’re staying at Mistral!

I’d love to hear back from you and Dad,

and I can’t wait to fill you in
on whatever’s going to happen next!

Now that we’ve made it across Anima,

I really think things are
gonna start going our way.

WATTS: Why thank you, Professor.

Salem always did say you were...

quite hospitable.

OSCAR: Excuse me?

QROW: You know, I don’t think they
allow kids in here, pipsqueak.

OSCAR: Shut up, I’m getting there.

OSCAR: Umm...

I’m supposed to tell you,

I'd like my cane back?

QROW: It’s good to see you again, Oz.
