A few days has passed since our suspension and we barely pay attention to it anyway. Nothing major has happened to Remnant since our recent battle here at Beacon. Students have recovered, but barely enough to fight off another wave of enemies...unless Ozpin's operatives can deal with it.

I doubt it, though.

Anyway, we have limited access to things we can do due to our suspension, but that doesn't really bother us a whole lot.

"Morning, Ruby." Weiss said from behind me on her bed.

"Morning, Weiss." I told her.

"So what are your plans today?" She asked me.

"Same as usual I guess. Go to class, eat lunch, come here, sleep. Not too many exciting things going on here lately." I told her. She laughed.

"You're so boring. Why don't we go check on Nora for a change?" She asked.

"Oh, my god! I forgot about Nora!" I screamed. I ran up to Blake and Yang's beds. "WAKE UP!" I yelled. They jumped.

"Ruby?! What the hell?!" Yang yelled.

"We have to go check on Nora! We haven't seen her a couple weeks! Get up!" I yelled at them. Yang and Blake lazily got out of bed and put their clothes on. I turned to Weiss as she did the same. She, however, looked like she regrets saying anything. I impatiently waited as they dressed. Eventually, I couldn't wait and ran to the infirmary. I got there as soon as I could when I met someone standing at the entrance…

Elena.

I stopped. "What are you doing here?" I asked her.

"I could say the same for you. Are you here to destroy more supplies?" She responded.

"No, I want to see my friend." I told her the truth.

"Well, you did that once before and look how that turned out." She argued.

"Do you really think I planned on doing that in the first place?!" I started to get mad.

"You tell me. I'm just a guard here, not a mind-reader." She laughs. "If you truly want to get through here, you're gonna need authorization from Ozpin himself. Good luck with that." She laughed again. Before I could do or say anything else, I saw Jaune and Ren walk out. Ren shoved Elena out of the way. They were clearly not happy.

"Guys! How's Nora doing?" I asked. Ren grabbed my wrists and was inches away from my face.

"This...was all. Your. FAULT!" He said. I was scared for my life. He let go of my red and sore wrists and walked away to his dorm.

"Ruby, can I talk to you for a moment?" Jaune asked me.

"Yeah, of course." I answered. He walked around the side of the building as I followed.

"Ruby, the doctors told us that Nora's…"

"Dying?"

"No...well," I gasped at that. "She...may not make it. Her wounds have gotten worse. And after the incident with you and your sister, the supplies have decreased. They may not be able to save her. It's a 50-50 chance." He finished. I was crying so hard. He was also teary eyed. I hugged him.

"I'm so, so sorry, Jaune! I'm sorry!" I cried. I also noticed he didn't return the hug. I let go and calmed down a bit.

"Ruby...since...since Pyrrha, I haven't been happy. Haven't laughed, haven't felt loved, appreciated. What I'm saying is...I'm just...I'm depressed, Ruby!" He cried. "I don't know what to do or even who to turn to!" He sighs. "Look, I know you didn't plan or even intend to destroy this place, but I just wish you hadn't done it." He walked away. I just fell to my knees and cried. I felt so bad. I couldn't stand seeing him like this. Waking me from my thoughts was Weiss' voice followed by the footsteps of my team.

"Ruby! What happened? Are you hurt?" She asked. I hesitated.

"Yes...yes I am."

A few more days later…

My team sat around our dorm, doing things they wanted to pass time. Weiss was studying, Blake was reading, and Yang practiced hand to hand combat. I sat on my bed, thinking. Thinking about how to make it up to Jaune, to Ren, and to team JNR in general. I thought that I would start with an apology. I hopped out of bed and walked towards the door.

"Where are you heading, Ruby?" Blake asked. The other girls turned to me as well.

"I'm gonna talk to Jaune. I gotta set things right." I told them. Yang walked up to me and grabbed my shoulders.

"You're doing the right thing, Ruby. I won't stop you like I have in the past. Just...stay positive. I love you, Ruby." Yang encouraged me. It cheered me up a lot. I smiled.

"Thanks, Yang!" I hugged her and then walked out of the dorm. I closed the door and walked up the Jaune's door. I took a deep breathe to gather my confidence. I opened the door.

"Hey Jaune, I wanted to-" I stopped as I saw Jaune…

..hanging from the chandelier.

"JAUNE!"
