It's getting better

-Red Roses on Snowy Days-

"Guys we have a problem."

Yang had just opened the cockpit door just in time to see Ruby win another pot. She was happy that Ruby was winning but the slight turbulence she felt finished that as she rushed to the end of the ship and opened the door. She pressed the red button and a countdown initiated.

45,44,43...

Weiss stepped out of the cockpit after trying to fix the ship a bit. "We need to leave, now. The landing gear isn't working and where going to fast to take a crash without blowing up. Everyone remember there landing strategies?"

Yang smirked and took her glasses out of her secret inner pocket in her jacket. Weiss smiled seeing that she had them, it would be just like the first day they all met. The countdown kept going.

37,36,35...

Everyone was lined up at the shops hanger door, awaiting the countdown to end so they could jump and land safety on the floor. The countdown stopped and the door opened up fully. Nobody moved a muscle yet and Yang shot and arm ho to stop them.

"Now!"

As soon as Yang saw a hint of green forest she yelled star them to jump. They all jumped in tandem. Yang put on her glasses and smiled at them. She secretly winked at Velvet before activating Ember Ceclia and bshooting st the sky, blasting herself down. She turned and saw she was nearing the tree line. She smirked and raise her fists in preparation. She smashed into the first teee and it snapped in half. She continued to cut down trees to lower her momentum until she was running on the floor and came to a halt. Suddenly out a nowhere bumblebee came fly down in a parachute. She smiled, she knew it was good a automated one onto her ride before going on the ship.

Weiss was next to land. She got herself into an upright position in the air. Once she was in it she summon a gravity well strong enough that it wouldnt lull her down and crush her when she was on it from the speed of her fall. She kept activating them until her speed was down rough where she could activate her Ice glyphs to speeds along the floor to a skidding halt next to Yang. Yang high fives her and they awaited the next two who were coming down fast.

Blake and Velvet were next. Velvet knew that her power was to important to use at this time so she asked Blake is she could help her. Blake nodded in understanding. She had fought Velvet with her using only twice and she knew the bunny Faunas was powerful and could not waste her photographs.

The maneuvered to each other in the air. They held hands and they feel and began to spin once they had enough spin they unlaced from each other and shot toward. Blake shot Velvet forward and then used her gun setting on Gambol Shroud to push herself forward to catch up. Once they were caught up, Blake began to shot the surrounding air trying to slow thier descent. It worked to a point and they slowed. Velvet unmatched herself and jumped to the first open beach she saw. She kept running down the tree line Koenig if she jumped down now, the momentum she had would kill her. Once she was low enough down, she jumped down and landed next to Yang. She winked at her.

Blake on the other hand used Gambol Shroud's cured blade to swing from tree to tree, slowing down enough to where she could shadow clone herself next to Weiss. She congratulated her on a fall well done and Balke chuckled at the compliment. They all looked up at the sky and smiled at the aerial duo still in the air.

Coco and Ruby were doing tricks in the air. Ruby was spinning and Coco was twirling. "Not bad Red, your spins are nice," Coco said as she finished her last twirl. "Thanks Coco. You are good at spinning. It's like your on the floor, but in the air." Coco smiled at Ruby's antics. They neared each other and began to preform intricate duo stunts. "Hey Red, let's see who can do the best landing." Ruby nodded and Coco smirked.

Coco seperated from Ruby and began to use her purse to spin a bit. Once she thought she had enough speed, she flung her arm outwards and used the weight of the purse to pull herself downward. She turned around and faced the sky and relished in the cool air shopping across her. She turned around mid way trough and saw the trees fast approaching. She changed her purse into mini gun mode and fired blast rounds down on the floor under her to slow herself down. She changed it bad and rolled down and landed at the feet of Yang. She fist bumped her and they smirked. "Nice landing Coco," Coco smirked and patted Yang on the back. "Same to you blondie"

Meanwhile Ruby was still in the air. Crescent Rose was still situated on her back in its sniper form. She grabbed it and changed it to its scythe form. So began to spin with the blade facing outwards. She stopped and just fell for a while. She could barely make out the image of Weiss and Yang looking up at her. Yang waved. She smiled and turned herself so that her back was facing them. She took aim withCrescent Rose and fired. The shot propelled her quickly through the air. She was rapidly losing altitude.

On the floor Yang was beginning to get worried. Ruby never did reckless things like that. She was about to scale a tree when the hand of Weiss stopped her. "You need to trust out leader Yang." Yang backed up and took her spot again next to Coco and Weiss. She decided to believe in Weiss' words and trust Ruby.

Ruby was close to the trees now. She turned and saw a fast approaching branch. She quickly used Crescent Rose to swing around it. It gave her enough air time to find a suitable tree. She went into dive formation. Once she neared the tree she shot herself towards it. She quickly activated her semblance and using the remaining momentum, ran down the tree. She skidded to a halt near Weiss. In a secon, she felt a crushing hug.

"Don't ever try that again." She nodded at Yang's words. She scratched the back of her head sheepishly and issued a silent sorry. Coco gave her a thumbs up and Weiss clapped silently. "That was a well planned strategy. Using the tree and a base to dispel all the kinetic energy through the tree by using your semblance." Ruby nodded and looked at her scroll. It was about 6 in the afternoon. They had plenty of time. She looked at Yang and Yang nodded. She quickly got on Bumblebee and began to drive off towards the hill, Ruby jumped on and held on. While her semblance may have been faster, it was hard to turn and the forest had many trees.

They got there around 6:30. The clearing opened up to an amazing view of Patch. You could see every mountain and even the tiny city of Patch itself. The coastline was accented by the sun at the right angle that the ocean had a marvelous color to it. Right in the middle of the whole cliff side clearing was a grave. It had an intricate design on it. It was of a Rose. The Rose had petals falling down. On the bottom there was just one quote.

'This Kindly I Scatter.'

Ruby slowly walked towards the grave stone and kneeled down next to it. By this time everyone had arrived panting and tired, but they all wanted to come and support Ruby with her seeing her mom. They all watched and waited for Ruby to finally say something. When she did, they all smiled, even Weiss who was usually quite secluded with her emotions.

"Hey mom."
