Pov: Weiss

I woke up and saw Ruby was still clinging onto my arms tightly. I looked at my bed and saw Yang was staying there for the night but it seems like she barely slept.

I began to move when Ruby made a small yelp and tightened her grip.

"Ruby… I just need to check my phone." I said.

She hesitantly loosed her grip and I grabbed my phone.

'Ms. Schnee, I understand that you and your fiancé are going through a rough time and I wish that this may help. Some of the guards were bribed by someone to let him out. We are putting out an APB in a few days (2 at most) I hope that this may give you some closure. -Srg. Ironwood'

I put down the phone and hold Ruby tight.

"W-What did he say?" Ruby asked.

"He said that some guards were bribed to look away from Neptune walking out. They're putting out an APB for him." I said.

"Weiss… what if he comes here?" Ruby asked.

"Then… I'll… tear his eyes ou…" Yang woke up for a second.

"Get some sleep Yang." I said. "You too."

We heard a knock on the door, and Ruby began to shake.

"Ms. Schnee, ms. Rose." We heard professor Ozpin say.

Ruby let go and I opened the door.

"I heard from Neo what had happened. I understand that you wish to stay here but your teachers hope that you can return soon." He said.

"We promise headmaster." I said.

He nodded and left.

I opened the door and walked in to hear the shower. I walked in and saw Velvet was naked on the floor crying.

"Velvet? What the hell are you doing?" I asked.

"It's my fault." She said.

I wrapped a towel around her and helped her up.

"What is your fault?" I asked.

"Ruby… and Neptune yesterday. I could've just asked you for help and none of this would have happened." She said.

"Velv you couldn't have known." I said.

"But-"

"Look cottontail, you may think that it was your fault but it wasn't. If anything, it was whoever let him the fuck out. Once we find Neptune, I'm gonna beat his ass into the ground and make him tell me who got him out." I said.

Velvet looked down.

"Poor Ruby…" velvet said.

I knocked on the door and Yang answered.

"What…"

"Go get some sleep. You look like crap." I said.

"I… need…"

"You can barely stand, let alone speak. Go get some rest."

Yang just nodded and walked passed me.

I walked in and sat on the bed.

"Hey Ruby." I said.

Ruby just looked at me. I saw her and she reminded of someone. Someone who was stupid and scared. Someone who had scars from the man she thought she loved.

"Weiss, can I talk to Ruby alone?" I asked.

Weiss looked at Ruby who nodded.

"I will be right outside." Weiss said.

Weiss got up and when I heard the door shut, I put my hand on Ruby's shoulder.

"Ruby… I want to tell you something." I said.

She looked at me.

"I know you think that you are alone. But I know what you've been through. To look over your shoulder in fear of what you may see. To be in the safest environment and still feel like the person you're running from will find you… but you are different. I didn't make friends at my school so no one came to my aid when Adam abused me. That was my mistake before Sun came to me. You have your sister, Neo, me, Sun, everyone else. You have your fiancé. You have the whole school. We would rather kill ourselves than watch that bastard touch you."

Ruby looked at me.

"I won't let you succumb to the fear that I went through." I said.

Ruby teamed up and hugged me.

Pov change: Weiss

"Weiss." I heard.

I walked back in and saw Ruby was hugging Blake as she stroked Ruby's hair.

"Weiss is back, and I should probably give you two some time."

"Okay… thank you Blake." Ruby said.

"Remember what I told you." Blake said.

Ruby nodded and reached towards me.

"Thanks." I said.

Blake nodded as she left.

"So? What did you two talk about?"

"Just… things." She said.

"I hate when you're vague like that." I said. "Why don't you go take a shower and I will make your bed?"

"Okay." Ruby said.

When she walked in and turned on the water, I called someone.

'Diane schnee.'

"Did you really do it?" I asked.

'Why whatever do you mean?'

"I swear to god mom, I will not let Whitley or dad get in the way if you did it."

I hung up on her before she could come with a quick remark.

I know it was her. Once I'm done with Neptune, I'm coming for you mom.

The next day

Pov change: Ruby

I stood there, Weiss was next to me.

"If you don't want to do this, we can head ba-"

"No, I… should do this." I said.

I opened the door and was met with Professor Port and everyone else.

"Ah Ms. Rose, we are so happy that you have returned."

I looked at Blake who smiled at me and I smiled back.

I walked to my desk, pulled out my notes and began to listen.

I am so tired right now. College searching and traveling! Uuuugh kill me now. Anyways hope you like.
