It was a rather cold night when I, Ruby Rose, and the rest of my team finally arrived back in our dorm room in Beacon Academy. After the fight with Roman Torchwick and the White Fang we were all extremely tired.
The night sky was beautiful tonight, I notice, as we all lay in our beds thinking about the things that have happened in the past few months, or at least I did. All the destruction that has happened and how most of the time we were the ones stopping it. It was us against the world, now and forever.
"Do you guys think we did the right thing?" I ask once we were all snuggled up in our bunk beds.
"Of course! Torchwick should rot in jail for the rest of his life, if we're lucky. And hopefully the White Fang understands what a huge mistake it was teaming up with him", Blake answers.
Blake has hated Torchwick from the moment they met. She could never get over the fact that the White Fang had teamed up with him, and it majorly pissed her off. Weiss wasn't too happy about the White Fang either, considering that they always stole from her family's company, the Schnee Dust Company. Yang on the other hand just hates every one of them, whether it was Torchwick or the White Fang, she disliked them. She wasn't too fond of meeting Torchwick's new partner in crime either, well mostly not having the pleasure to defeat her.
"I know, but a lot of people got hurt in the process. So was it really worth it all? I mean the only person we captured was Torchwick", I turn in my bed, "Lives were lost for the sake of one man", I reply bluntly.
"Ruby has a point, Torchwick won't even tell us who's really under all the attacks, since it's clearly not him. He couldn't even defeat Jaune if he tried", Weiss mocks.
We all laugh for a moment, everything seems okay for now. Let's just hope that nothing goes wrong.
"Guys, you know I'm all in for a good butt kicking, but we just literally saved Vale! Can't we just enjoy this moment and finally get some well deserved rest?" Yang sighs.
Yang could always find something to joke about, even in a sticky situation. That makes me glad she's in my team, cause I don't think I could stand a day in a team where everyone was really uptight. I mean, Weiss is bad enough, talk about drama queen.
"Fine. We'll talk tomorrow, okay?" I ask.
Murmurs of agreement filled the room as they all fell into their deep slumbers. All but me. Sleeping has never been one of my virtues, I guess you could call me a night owl.
I've been awake for hours wondering if I'd done the right thing. If not that, then I'm worrying about tomorrow. I wonder how many hours of sleep I'll manage to get.
I got up from my bed several times that night and paced inside our room. Sometimes I'd watch the stars flicker in the deep blue sky, as a way of calming myself. A few times I even thought about waking up Yang and asking for sisterly advice on how to deal with all this stress, but like she said, we all need sleep.
Millions of questions cloud my head, they keep me awake at all times. Although there was one that annoyed the life out of me.
Was Torchwick really such a bad guy?
