I would like to see an episode where the teams are sent to retrieve relics from a cave. I don't mean whatever Ozpin thinks up, I mean actual relics. And when the teams leave with the relics, it turns out the cave was home to a dragon. The dragon, upon finding his horde missing some pieces, begins destroying the surrounding area, forcing the teams to fight it, only to be easily defeated. From here, we would go to Ruby, recovering from cuts and burns in Beacon's infirmary. After listening to Ozpin and Glynda discuss how to beat the dragon, Ruby decides to do something on her own. A few minutes later, RWBY, JNPR and Glynda decide to check on Ruby only to dfind that she and crescent rose are missing.

Cut to a hill where Ruby is standing. Ruby looks at the dragon's layer in the distance, then takes out a golden cup, which she had taken as her teams relic. She looks at it, seems to decide on something, then begins limping toward the dragons layer

End part 1.

Part 2: The teams wonder where Ruby is, before realising that she most likely went to go and face the dragon. As they head out to stop her, they find that she has already begun to enter the beast's lair. The lair is burning hot, causing Ruby to limp very slowly, then finally crawl until she reaches the center of the layer. The dragon emerges and looks at her, obviously suprised that she walked into its home. Ruby, noticing the beast, takes out the cup and apologises for stealing it, then asks that the beast not harm her team and take her instead. The beast looks perplexed at her, then cunts itself with crescent rose and lets the blood fall on Ruby. The blood heals her wounds, after which the dragon, looking at Ruby in a caring way, grabs something from its horde, which it gives to her. The item is a giant broadsword, with words inscribed on it. They say "I am Hrunting, the light in the darkness". After this, it allows ruby to leave and does not leave its lair again.

Most of this was a reference to the final part of Beowulf, so if you caugh the references, bonus points for you.
