"I can't believe the whole school is destroyed..." Pyrrha sobbed as she took in the scene from the airship that soared away from the school. Burying Cinder Fall in the pile of gears that had once been Ozpin's office was genius, offering her just enough time to escape. Once she'd realized she had no chance of winning the battle with the fiery goddess, she'd taken off.
A quick slash from Crescent Rose had distracted the giant dragon, allowing she and Ruby to escape with their lives.
Jaune was still unhappy with having been crammed into a locker, but he would come around. At least his girlfriend had survived. She'd persuade him somehow. It shouldn't be so difficult.
"At least we all survived." Sun Wukong answered, Neptune seated in the chair next to him. Ren and Nora were resting a few rooms away, with Blake and Yang. Poor Yang had lost her right forearm, but she was undeniably strong. She would come back from it, surely.
The war had begun, and they would all get to take part in it. Hooray for them.
"Pyrrha..." Ruby beckoned. Pyrrha turned to look at her, still disheveled from the battle. A hot shower had done her good, but Pyrrha could still see the hurt on her face. "It's none of my business, but I think you should go see Jaune..."
"Yes, he's probably still pretty unhappy with me. I did shove him into a locker, after all..." She tore herself away from the window and made her way down the ship's thin corridor. Knocking softly on the door, she waited politely.
When nobody answered, she walked to the room where Ren and Nora were resting. Ren was awake, not surprising her at all. With Nora injured, he was sure to be wired for however long it took her to recover.
"Are you feeling okay?" Pyrrha asked her teammate. That was a stupid question.
"Nothing too awful. I just got punched in the ribs by a mech. Nora just went back to sleep. She hates being stuck in bed, but she can't do a lot about that." Ren joked. The tiny powerhouse that was Nora Valkyrie was restrained to a bed by her injuries.
She would smash the first thing she could when she got out of this medical wing.
"So, where's Jaune?" Ren asked his teammate, the redhead shaking her head.
"I figured he might be in here..." She surrendered, her eyes shifting toward the floor.
"He went looking for you. Maybe call his Scroll?"
"He tossed it into the rubble before we left the city..." She nervously shifted around, as if waiting for Ren to dismiss her. He told her to go find her boyfriend, and she hugged him softly before leaving.
She paced the airship in search of her beautiful blond boy, asking for him at every turn. He must have been searching for her, too, because she seemed to keep barely missing him.
After what seemed like an eternity of searching, her vivid green eyes met his dark blue ones in a hallway. An awkward silence ensued, the two looking into one another's eyes for a long time.
With no words between them, they came together in a passionate kiss. The two explored each other's bodies for a moment as they kissed deeply, soon deciding that this hallway was not the place for this. The nearest empty room would have to suffice.
Unfortunately, that room was a restroom.
They piled in and slammed the door, flipping the lock to show the 'Occupied' message.

((A/N: Working under the prompt 'Fix something that was broken in V3, I basically wrote Pyrrha an out to keep her alive. Because she's my waifu, after all. XD))
