VKRE (RWBY story)

Ellie: What do you think the relic'll be?

Valerie: I'm not sure, but you guys lucked out. Having a skilled historian on your team, I'm sure I can locate this artifact with ease!
Kara: Oh, come on. 
Valerie: I'm serious! I'm super good at locating artifacts!

Rana: If you say so, Val.

(the next day, deep in the Crystal Caverns)
Valerie: Okay...I have no idea where we are or where any sort of artifact is....
Kara: ...*facepalms*

Ellie: So much for being super good.

Valerie: So much for being....er....shut up!
Kara: Okay, listen. This is no big deal, really. All we have to do is just hug the right wall until we find the end!

Ellie: Why the right wall?

Kara: It'll take us to the end eventually!
Valerie: But the...oh! This isn't a maze, Kara! It's a system of caverns! We could be trapped in here forever!

Rana: Do we have a rope or something to lead us back to the entrance?

Valerie: Well no. But if we did, that would have been useful at the start of the cave. 
Kara: Oh, whatever. Haven wouldn't send us in just to die. Let's continue on!

Rana: I prefer not to continue forward unless we have a way to find our way back.
Ellie: How about I drag my ax along the ground to carve a path?

Kara: Isn't that gonna dull your ax's blade?
Valerie: And also, what good is finding our way back here if we don't know where "here" is?

Ellie: Well it's better than possibly getting lost in these caves.

Valerie: Don't you mean "more" lost?
Kara: Guy's let's not fight! Let's just all focus on getting out of here. Now, do any of you have mis-diagnosed semblances? Like say, some kind of earth-moving semblance?

Rana: No, I don't think any of us do.

Valerie: Wait! Why don't we light Kara on fire, and use her glowing hair to lead the way?
Kara: Can any of you make fire?

Rana: My hammer can make fire if that'd help.

Valerie: Oh, do it! Do it do it!
Kara: *sighs* Fine...just make sure the hammer itself doesn't hit me.

Rana: What are you talking about? I'm not gonna hit you.
She takes out her hammer and has it ignite into flames, turning it into a makeshift torch.

(The light illuminates their immediate surroundings, revealing numerous subterranean Grimm staring them down)
Valerie: ....T-turn the hammer off, Rana...

Rana: Right away... *Gulps a little before extinguishing the flames*

Kara: Great, now we can die in the dark.
Valerie: Who said anything about dying? Don't worry, team! We have one, last-ditch effort to help us here.

Ellie: Great, because now would be a great time to tell us.

Valerie: It's simple. We just...*grabs Kara's and Ellie's hand* RUN AWAY! *turns and runs the other way*
Kara: Wah-?!

Rana: That's your big plan?! *Runs after her teammates*
