Ruby had just begun to open her eyes, when a voice jolted her awake.

"Oh, nice to see you made it. Not like you wouldn't have, though." It was the woman from before, the one that looked very muchso like Cinder.

Ruby knew where she was now as she sat up. It was the place she seemed to go when she was asleep, or unconcious.

"You... you're the girl from before." Ruby was bringing herself to her feet as she spoke. "What do you want? Why are you in my head?"

The girl turned and looked at Ruby, smiling softly. "Oh, I'm your keeper. I'm here to give you advice, and help you manage your powers. And I'm not actually in your head, physically. This is a mental apparition I make to talk to you. I'm not exactly in the same part of town."

"Where are you, then?" Ruby asked, watching the woman carefully. She didn't know what could happen next.

"Wow, don't even want to ask my name, do you?" The woman seemed mockingly offended.

Ruby knew to further the conversation, she would have to ask her name. "What is your name?"

The woman smirked. "Sapphire. Sapphire Fall."

Ruby's eyes widened. "Wait, are you related to Cinder?"

"She's my sister, dear. And I'm in Patch, with your mother." Sapphire said, and quickly sidestepped a punch from Ruby.

"Don't talk about my Mom!" Ruby shouted, getting ready to punch again.

Sapphire held up her hands in surrender. "No! I'm being serious! Your Mother... she's my mentor. We have been living in Patch together for around thirteen years."

Ruby could understand she was serious, and judging by the time of disappearance, this was her Mom. "If... if she's really alive, why did she leave?"

"Some dispute with Ozpin or something. Apparently, he kicked her out, and threatened death for her if she returned. But, she's very proud of you. She checks up on you from time to time." Sapphire said, relieved to see Ruby drop her fists.

But now, Ruby had small tearstreaks going down her face, and she was smiling. "My Mommy... she's still alive." She seemed in awe, like she believed it, but at the same time didn't.

Sapphire patted her head. "As much as I wanna talk about your mom, I'm here to talk about you, and your powers."

Ruby looked up, and wiped her tears. "Oh, yeah."

"Ruby, your powers are inherited from your mother. She had them from her mother, and so forth. Your family has been a long, famous line of silver-eyed aura morphing badasses." Sapphire smiled at the statement she just made.

"Oh... um... okay." Ruby said awkwardly, poking her fingers together.

Sapphire ignored the awkwardness, and kept talking. "Your powers originate from emotion. Emotions like anger, sadness, defiance, etc, etc. That's how they were activated in the first place, somebody has been losing there temper and taking out their anger on the faces of whatever challenges them."

Ruby sighed. "Yeah... I guess I do have some anger issues."

Sapphire shook her head. "You have them for a reason. You have added testosterone levels that bring out that angry side of yours, which brings out that awesome power of yours. You understand? It's a good thing. It makes you stronger."

Ruby shrugged. She understood, but seemed distracted.

Sapphire knew what it was, and kissed her cheek. "You want to get back to Cinder. I understand. Tell her that was from me." With that, Sapphire flicked Ruby in the head.

Ruby watched as everything suddenly vanished, and she fell back into normal slumber.
