[The scene opens at the Beacon Academy. Ingrid finishes her conversation with Murasaki and puts away his communicator.]
Ingrid: Murasaki is so infuriating.
Saya: Tell me about it. By the way Ingrid, I'm nobody's bodyguard, certainly not yours.
Ingrid: Of course not. You know the enemy's base and how to override their defenses. Once I've taken what I need I'll rally my precious Tennyson and his buddies to handle Apocagax for me and--
[Saya spots something while Ingrid drones on about her nefarious plot.]
Saya: Boss, we've got company...
[Two women are on the other side of the Academy. One is a Schnee while the other is wearing a red dress.]

????: Their souls are forfeit!
[The Schnee shoots an ice blast that freezes Ingrid and Saya up to their knees.]
Saya: Our soles are forfeit? Is that huntsman humour? Because it's not very funny.
????: Neither will what we're gonna do with you!
[The rage appears in Ingrid's eyes.]
Ingrid: We don't have time for this stupidity!
[Ingrid smashes the ice on her knees with one punch of her magic and flies over to the arena part of the Academy. The Schnee somersaults into the arena to face her.]
????: My name is Winter Schnee. And I'll make you regret having challenging us! FIGHT!
[They fight. The strength and advanced magic of Ingrid provide her with the advantage over the ace operative and Winter Schnee is eventually knocked out for the count.]
Ingrid: One down...
Saya: Saya! Behind you!
[The Maiden teleports in behind Ingrid and attemps to sucker-punch her. Ingrid catches her fist in her hand and shoves the fall maiden back several feet across the arena.]
Ingrid: You'll have to do better than that!
????: You're about to feel the power of the Fall Maiden Cinder Fall!
[They fight. Ingrid's magic manages to provide protection even against Cinder's maiden power and she manages to defeat her as well. With both huntsmen down, Ingrid flies off the arena and toward Saya, raising her fist. It looks like she's going to smash the defenseless woman into the ground, but as she touches down he instead brings his punch into the ice surrounding her legs, freeing her.]
Saya: Thanks. For a moment there I wasn't sure what side you were on.
Ingrid: Story of my life. Let's go.
[Ingrid and Says managed to defeat Cinder Fall and Winter Schnee. What new challenges await them?]
