Author's note: I own nothing and enjoy!

Ruby and Yang walked slowly towards their former teacher.

Physically, Ms. Prickle had changed little. Her hair was still as tight and pulled back as the day she had first walked into that little classroom all those years ago.

Finally, they were right in front of her. Both curtsied and said, "Good afternoon miss."

"Good afternoon children."

"You wouldn't happen to be Ms. Prickle by any chance would you?"

"I am. And whom may you be?"

"I am Yang Xiao Long and this is my younger sister Ruby Rose."

Recognition dawned in Ms. Prickle's eyes, but before anything could be said, the doors to the tea room burst open.

Through the doors came a group of Faunus with guns rushed in and started pointing them at people, mostly at the Schnee family. One faunus walked in, drew his sword and pointed it right at Jacques' heart and in a conversational tone said, "Any huntsmen and huntresses throw your weapons into a pile in the center of the room or your gracious host gets it."

Only a few weapons were in the pile as no one had expected to need them. Ruby and Yang pushed themselves up against the wall, bringing Ms. Prickle with them.

"Now that that's done," the faunus said, "Everyone on your knees! I see even a single scroll and the Schnee gets it."

Silently everyone complied.

With that completed, the leader turned to his men and said, "Spread out. Take any valuables you find, get rid of anyone who fights back." So the faunus bandits walked through the kneeling crowd and grabbed anything that suited their tastes until two came across Ms. Prickle, Ruby, and Yang.

The two had already taken a necklace from Ms. Prickle, who had almost protested and moved on to Yang. One faunus, a bear faunus as it happened, saw Yang's hair and wanted to touch it.

Yang's eyes turned red as Ember Celica shifted to its natural form and she shot him across the room. Quickly followed by his companion, a wolf faunus. The rest of the bandit faunus had their guns trained on Yang but paid no attention to Ruby, who had also brought along Crescent Rose.

As the focus was on Yang, Ruby used her semblance to get to the other side of the room and take out any bandits that tried to stop her.

Crescent Rose shifted to its sniper form and Ruby started taking aim.

"EVERYBODY GET DOWN!" Ruby shouted. Those who knew her, quickly did as she instructed. Everyone else quickly followed suit.

The lead faunus started walking towards Jacques ready to kill him, but Ruby shot first and hit the faunus before he'd gone three steps. After that, Yang and Ruby quickly finished off the rest of the faunus. The police were set to arrive any minute and everything looked like it'd be okay…

Until Ms. Prickle opened her mouth.
