genessia | I | audio/action for near Bay

[Waking up at the Bay and then finding a hologram with Weiss on it sure weren't the things Lie expected to happen in the near future of his life. Especially when he was alone. If he hadn't gotten all that information, he really would have been confused but right now he is rather calm about this. Thank you, Weiss.

Though since he apparently isn't alone in this place, he should contact the person he knows is here. Well, unfortunately he can't make this call private now, but maybe it would be heard regardless?]

Hello? Weiss Schnee? It's me, Lie Ren. I was wondering if I could meet with you? I apologize for contacting like this. I do not know your number here.

[Well, since this is a public broadcast, he might as well reach out for others as well.]

Of course, I wouldn't mind speaking with others who might know me. I apologize, I do not know who all are here.

[Lie can be found from near the Bay, waiting for a contact to his message, but at the same time, observing his surroundings.]

You as well.

[ he'll tell the whole story in a moment -- but for now -- ]

A lot of us, from Beacon, are here, in addition to a select handful of individuals that I was not so happy to see. Mercury and Emerald are here, and I have yet to determine whether or not they pose a threat. So please be on your guard.

[ no more dead students please :( ]

[That certainly wasn't a very assuring thing to know. He remembers that they were very dangerous.]

I promise to be extra careful, professor.

[ nO MORE DEAD STUDENTS LIE ]

Thank you. I have no doubt you will be fine.

[ with a faint smile ]

Did you arrive well, otherwise?

[But ~~dad~~ professor 8( ]

Yes, everything went well, thank you for asking.

[He pauses, thinking.]

Professor, can I ask you something?

You may always ask me something.

[ whether or not he has an answer is another matter entirely ]

What happened to you after you, Jaune and Pyrrha left the battlefield? We have not heard from you since.

[ he had been expecting the question, and ozpin has told all of his students pretty much the same thing. but it's still upsetting, to him, that he isn't around to help.

not yet, anyway. ]

We encountered Cinder, and I told Pyrrha and Jaune to run. I fought her on my own, and she managed to break through my aura. I was defeated.

[ he pauses, there ]

She did not kill me, though. I am alive, but I believe I was taken somewhere. I am not sure where, yet -- Ruby has told me that I am still missing, a month or two after Beacon fell. Is that correct?

[Cinder, the one who killed Pyrrha. There's an obvious change in Ren's expression, but he keeps quiet. Instead, he nods.]

It is. I am from the same time as Ruby.

You, and many other students.

[ unfortunately. or fortunately. who knows. ]

We are fortunate to have the numbers on our side, here. And we are far better prepared.

[At least they don't need to be explained... everything.]

At least the main threat does not appear to be here.

[Not yet, Ren. Not yet.]

No, it appears things are relatively peaceful, for the time being.

[ thank the heavens ]

We can breathe.

[Ren nods with a light smile. He's not sure what else to comment on that. Of course it won't stop him from being careful around the others... but it's something.]
