Ash Westwind of Team ACCA was partway through reviewing the mission data on his scroll.

"...Village on the outskirts of Vale is suffering from a strange case.  People have been disappearing, and evidence points to Grimm - but local defenders have not been able to find the Grimm in question.  Signs indicate that a clever species less common to the area may be responsible for the disappearances.  The situation does has not escelated enough to warrant the involvement of full-fledged Hunters, but it does offer an excellent training opportunity for Beacon students. 

''Students are to arrive on seen no later than 1000 local, and remain available for contact with Beacon cadre at all times. Contact will be made at least twice per day - once in the morning (upon arrival on the first day) and once in the evening, prior to bedding down each night.''

''A small amount of media attention is expected, so be on guard, and stay professional. We want to leave a good impression. As second-years and above, I fully expect you to be able to handle this.''

''-G. Goodwitch."''

He let out a quiet sigh, smiling a bit when Cerise caught his gaze with her curious one. "Professor Goodwitch wants us to stay in contact twice daily," he advised his team leader, Aurum. "Please try not to antagonize her this time." Ash was the only one of his team standing.

The dog Faunus grinned at the sniper, her green forester's cap cocked jauntily to one side to cover her damaged Faunus' otter ear. "Don' worry 'bout it so much, Ash.  We've got other teams with us, s'they c'n reach us through them, too, if they need ta.  Right?"

Celeste nodded from her seat across from her partner. "Yeah, relax!  It'll fun, right?"

"Yeah," Aurum laughed, "like a murder mystery."

Ash frowned. "We have real lives on the line here, you know.  Those missing people have probably been killed by Grimm."

Cerise shot Ash a concerned look, noting his hightened stress.

The man sighed deeply. "Sorry; I'm just a bit worried, is all.  You remember the last time we tried to follow a plan."

Yet another laugh issued from Aurums lips. "Yeah, that didn't go so well, I suppose.  Still, we came through alright - and it's not just us, this time." He motioned to the open seat across from him. "Take a seat.  We'll be there soon.  Right guys?" He looked to the scattered members of the other teams around the mid-sized airbus.
