A/N: The flashback session in this review episode will draw connections to my Athena Cykes spinoff story set in The Critique Universe, and tease/foreshadow later episodes taken place during the events of this story. Also the second and final act of the flashback companion duology that had commenced with the previous review episode featuring Sinon and Leafa with the Leprechaun (1993) review.
P.S.: Takes place almost four hours after the last review episode.
P.S.S.: Also like to announce that the next chapter for my Athena Cykes spinoff will take place the day prior to this flashback review episode of how RWBY met Athena, thus confirming that the next review episode for her story after the second season premiere so far (which focuses on Sega 32X) of Athena's story will be the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III review.
In this thirty-ninth review episode, Team RWBY recollects the first time they've met Athena Cykes during their excursion to Tokyo and Los Angeles, as the huntresses and the attorney decide to review a video game movie together during their first collaboration together, which is known to be as 1993's crapfest video game flick, Super Mario Bros.
Team RWBY and Athena Cykes' Commentary of Super Mario Bros.
(RWBY's Reminiscence Act II)
EDO ISLAND
8:30 PM
Some time after RWBY and the others had dinner, team RWBY (still in their exclusive Edo Island kimono apparel) and the others have spent time around the Samurai Kingdom once more for the day with Baiken, Inori, Ibuki and their Edo friends, including visiting the local yatais to try out the food, going to the kabuki theater to see a short play, and even lit lanterns to lift them up into the night sky. It was marvelous.
Soon after team RWBY and the others started settling in for the night (which would be the last night before they go back to Beacon Academy first thing in the morning), the four of them decide to go back up to the castle's top floor where the observation deck was, looking at the majestic sight of the Samurai Kingdom and the night sky with the lit lanterns floating in the air.
Athena comes up the stairs leading up to the top floor and saw the four huntresses look at the view, who then asked, "You alright, girls?"
"Yeah, Athena. We're doing fine. As a matter of fact, we felt just like Baiken last night. I just can't shake the thoughts of it all. Meeting new friends, exploring, talking about new things and movies along with past memories... A few hours ago, we talked to Sinon and Leafa about our first time meeting up with the two over in Tokyo during our excursion.", Ruby said, looking back at the past.
Athena pondered, "Oh, yeah. You told me about that excursion thing the day we've met."
"Yeah, not only our excursion was over at Tokyo, but over at L.A. as well.", mentioned Yang, "We've really met a lot of great people since then, did we?"
The orange-haired attorney shrugs, "I suppose so. Our connection is growing numerously after all. That day when we've managed to bump into each other by sheer coincidence, since I was on my way home with a pile of files and papers, we've noticed that although we're from different places with different lives, we at least had something in common."
"Obviously not just by reviewing or the same gender we have...but our friendship.", Blake and Weiss thought.
Athena nods, "Exactly. Even considering that we also did our first collaboration review together over at my place. You've even inspired me to review that awful Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III movie the following day. That was sometime before the Niagara Falls trip, the sleepover, and the Halloween party."
"Not even a month since Halloween and look where we are now. Our bond has grown immensely...and we will never forget that time we first met... Ever.", Ruby euphoniously remembered...
One year earlier...
LOS ANGELES
1PM
"Remind us again why the excursion also brought us to Los Angeles?", Yang happily asked her younger red-black-haired sister as she, Ruby, Blake and Weiss walked around the busy streets of Los Angeles.
Ruby answers, "I think it's because Tokyo and Los Angeles seem to be two of the best urban places of civilization here on Earth to go to. I know New York, Fiji, Australia and other places may be much better to explore, but we're just gonna go along with it. In fact, we've enjoyed Tokyo, and I think this will be as good as the other city."
A couple days after Team RWBY visited Tokyo, they were now exploring Los Angeles as they've already booked at The Westin Bonaventure Hotel's Studio Suite, had a great lunch over at Jolibee, and it was an adventure for team RWBY that was just as exciting as Tokyo.
"How many times do you have to text your friends, Ruby?", Weiss asks as she saw Ruby being distracted by her Scroll once again after looking at the LA map.
Blake warned fondly, "Be careful, Ruby. Last time it happened, we bumped into Sinon and Leafa."
"I don't want you running into traffic this time.", hoped Yang caringly to her sister, "We're in the People Park area anyway."
Ruby self-awared, "I'll keep a lookout on that. Don't worry, got it under control-"
However, like before, Ruby suddenly bumped into someone whilst she was texting to her friends back at Beacon, this time with the unknown person carrying a pile of papers.
"Ow!", Ruby and the other person groaned yet again, "Again?"
Weiss proved her point, "See?"
"Oh my goodness...", Blake said as she saw the person's papers scramble onto the sidewalk after Ruby and the person collided into each other. Luckily, none of the papers flew onto the road.
Yang apologized to the unknown person, "We're so sorry!", as she picked up Ruby and the four huntresses start helping the person pick up the papers, "We'll get them for you.", before gathering them just as they saw what the person looked like.
It was another girl in her teenage years with orange hair tied up in a ponytail with a blue hair ribbon, along with blue eyes, wearing a yellow jacket that has a blue line on each cuff, a matching skirt, a white shirt, a blue tie, black thigh-high stockings, and white boots. She also had a single crescent moon earring on her right ear, a three-fingered black glove that wraps around her thumb, index, and middle fingers, and an electronic AI device worn around her neck.
"Are you fine?", Ruby carefully said as she and her teammates give back her papers.
The orange-haired girl said, "I'm okay. I was just heading to my car to go back to my home."
"From where?", curiously asked Weiss.
The teenager with orange hair says, "I work at the Wright Anything Agency. I just had to file and look at these papers in the next several weeks, but fortunately I have a lot of time on my hands. Who are you girls?"
"I'm Ruby Rose, this is my older sister Yang Xiao Long, and our friends Blake Belladonna. We came from Beacon Academy from Remnant and work as official huntresses known as Team RWBY. We happen to be exploring here and Tokyo earlier for a five-day vacation, and so far we've had an amazing time. And you are?"
"Athena Cykes. Specialist in analytical psychology and official defense attorney of the Wright Anything Agency. Pleased to meet you.", she says, yet she couldn't shake Ruby's hand due to carrying all the paperwork that was piled from her abdomen up to her head.
Blake offered, "We could help you by carrying those papers if you like."
"That would be kind of you girls. Maybe if you like to, you could come over to my place for a bit. I'm heading over there anyway.", insisted Athena benevolently.
Yang decides, "We already booked a night over at The Westin Bonaventure, so... How can we say no? We've met two friends of ours over at Tokyo during our excursion, and we tagged along with them."
"I see.", informed Athena, "Anyways, let's go."
Ruby nodded, "You betcha."
The four huntresses decide to tag along with Athena as the girls followed her over to the parking lot where Athena's yellow convertible was parked, the five getting in as the attorney drove themselves out and en route to Athena's place.
Athena's home was as casual as all the other L.A. homes were as the five girls reached the city's neighborhood a few minutes later. It was two stories high, and seemed to have enough space to live in.
"We're here.", Athena told team RWBY as they entered the garage, exiting the vehicle once inside and going inside the house.
Ruby, Yang, Blake and Weiss looked around the home in awe as Athena led them inside.
It looked like as what every middle-class home had. The living room had a few couches and chairs, a coffee table in the middle with books and decored with home furnishings, with a 4K TV placed on the other side of the living room facing the couches. The kitchen wasn't far from the living room, which had a dishwasher, sink, stove oven, fridge (with freezer), and sets of cupboards and counters. There also seemed to be a small bathroom for downstairs and a basement in the house as well (presumably being the home theatre room), with a staircase leading to the second floor.
"Wow. It looks...casual.", reacted Ruby.
Yang sighed in reminiscence, "Reminds me of back home."
"Wait till you see what's upstairs.", anticipates Athena.
Blake and Weiss look at each other and said, "Sure?"
The five of them went upstairs as team RWBY looked around once again to see what was upstairs.
The second floor had another bathroom, along with a closet, a bedroom and one more room that RWBY has yet to explore.
"You're in for a big surprise, girls.", Athena excites.
Ruby gulped doubtingly, "Please tell us it's not something that'll be regretful."
"Nope. Better!", Athena said before she opens the door and led team RWBY inside.
Team RWBY, after being surprised by the home's living room, felt even more amazed by what the secret room had.
Although there were files and paperwork placed in one part of the room, there was a gaming collection for all sorts of classical consoles, including the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, and more.
"Whoa... We know you're an attorney, but you didn't tell us you're a gamer too!", Yang awes.
The orange-haired attorney answered casually, "Well, surprise, surprise. I sometimes like to review games in my spare time. Mostly shitty games that suck ass."
"First we've met Sinon and Leafa, and now meeting you, Athena? And we thought we weren't the only ones being spare-time movie reviewers.", Blake astonished.
Athena Cykes perked up, "Wait, you're reviewers too?"
"Obviously. But it doesn't change the fact that we're huntresses of Beacon Academy.", conspiciously implies Weiss.
The attorney answered, "Guess we something in common after all. Doesn't change the fact that I'm an attorney either."
"Hey, Cykes.", Ruby asked, "I know we review some good and bad movies here and there, but... What games did you review that you thought were shitty games that suck ass?"
Athena told, "Well, my first review I've ever done was Top Gun for the NES. I tried landing the plane in the game but it fails to do so no matter how hard I tried! It sucked ASS!"
"We know. We've reviewed worse movies like that.", calmed Yang, "Anything else?"
The orange-haired teenager nodded, "Yeah! Like Silver Surfer, the Virtual Boy, Simon's Quest, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Friday the 13th, The Power Glove, Atari 5200, Sega CD, the Sega 32X, and so on, they were all disappointing as a shitload of fuck!"
"Yeah...", acknowledged Blake and Weiss, "We can see why..."
Athena demonstrated, "That proves it! Horrible gameplay, shitty controls, terrible mechanics and atrocious end results. Those are the things that make bad games the worst!"
"I can't imagine playing those ourselves. Someday we could cover up and do a few in the future.", says Ruby, keeping it in mind; she then suggested, "So since we share a common interest as before, why don't we just review a video game movie together?"
The female attorney shrugged, "I'm okay with it. Good thing we're diving in to review a video game movie together, but I doubt that it'll be one of those bad video game adaptations that might as well end up as a piece of shit."
"Apparently, we've found a video game movie online, which is the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie.", Yang told Athena, "Seen the trailer, and we've thought it would be kinda good. That is, until we see the movie."
Athena uncertainly stated, "Oh, I can't wait to review this with you guys... Seen it before, and I'd like to join you in reviewing this letdown."
"Okay then. Without further ado, let's review.", both Blake and Weiss commences as the two, Ruby, Yang and Athena sat down on Athena's couch in her gaming/work room.
The orange-haired girl joked, "My body is ready. Said by Reggie from Nintendo."
"Anyways, Hollywood has a talent for taking symbols of our prized childhood and turning them into indescribable quantities of fecal matter, and nowhere is that more prominent than in the horrors of the Super Mario Bros. movie.", Ruby began.
Yang also precedently says, "The game, about two Italian plumbers who rescue a princess from a dragon, was such a huge hit that they put it on everything. Candy, magazines, comic books, the works. So it only figured to put together a Super Mario Bros. movie as quickly as possible."
"And when we saw the trailer for this movie, we realized it wasn't just Super Mario Bros., it was Super Mario Bros. ON STEROIDS.", retold Blake in excitement.
Weiss also stated, "I'm serious dude, this movie was packin', with flamethrowers, rocket boots, giant monsters and a badass lookin' city. So naturally, people got hyped."
"Yeah, even to the beat of the song I've Got The Power, it feels futuristic and, maybe so, pretty awesome. But we have to remember that there are a few movies out there that are never meant to be trusted by its production marketing material.", Athena lectures.
The leader of team RWBY discusses, "That's true, but let's not waste any time, this is Super Mario Bros.", just as they played the film as it began with the title credits scene having the Mario theme, "Alright! The traditional Mario music, this is gonna be just like the game! We're in for an awesome ride."
However, during the movie's opening sequence, team RWBY and Athena became gradually confused and less enthusiastic (besides Athena) as it showed hand-drawn animations of dinosaurs in the prologue showing how the meteorite destroyed the dinosaurs yet somehow creates a parallel dimension where the dinosaurs would live and evolve into aggressive beings.
"What the hell is with the animation during this scene? It looked like the animators of the Dingo Disney ripoffs were paid big time for this sequence! What were they thinking?!", exclaimed the orange-haired girl.
The elder sister of Ruby Rose cringed, "Oh my gods, this movie's gonna blow.", before summarizing, "So let's see what's wrong with this horse's ass of a movie. Well for starters, the graphics in the game are actually better than the graphics in the opening, like what Athena had said about just now, that's Strike 1. Koopa is a human being instead of a dragon, that's Strike 2, and two Italian plumbers are played by a British man and a Latino. And that's Strike 3. You know what, what the hell? Five minutes into this movie, already it has three strikes against it. This is going to SUCK ASS."
"You bet it will.", Athena nodded in agreement, "The first time I saw that, I knew they've fucked it up."
The Faunus describes afterwards, "Alright, so the film centers around a love story between Luigi and the only good looking archaeologist in the entire world, Daisy. Their chemistry is about as awkward as Tom Cruise and...well, I guess anyone he's dated.", as a scene showed Luigi having a conversation with Daisy.
"I think Daisy would say to him, 'Don't worry, Luigi. It's not you, it's just bad writing.'", mimicked the Schnee heiress, "Because this film's writing is starting to turn out very bad."
Ruby abstracts, "Upon taking her out to dinner, we find out that the Mario Brothers aren't even brothers at all. They're father and son. But wait a minute, doesn't Mario specifically at one point say Mario Brothers Plumbing? And isn't the title of the stinking movie Super Mario Bros.? We mean, really?"
"So wait, what they're trying to say... They're father and son...AND brothers?", deduces Yang, before she vented anger as her lilac eyes turned blood red, "You're messed up movie. You're FUCKING messed up!"
Athena argued, "What is up with that? This isn't Brokeback Mountain, this is Super Mario Brothers! What were they thinking with this bullshit!?"
"Damn right.", Ruby's elder sister replied to Athena.
Blake continues nevertheless, "So after that incestuous moment, we find that Daisy is abducted and taken to a parallel world where humans evolved from lizards instead of evolving from monkeys. Creationism."
"And in the horrifying city of...Dinohattan...there's an evil Tyrannical-saurus Rex known as King Koopa, played by Dennis Hopper. Only he doesn't breathe fire and throw hammers like in the video game, no, this Koopa's more like a mix between Donald Trump and Dr. Evil.", synopsizes Weiss.
The orange-haired girl implied after she and team RWBY see a snippet with Dennis Hopper's Koppa character in the film, "The Reluctant Dragon would've been scarier than this."
"His plan is to merge our two dimensions together and de-evolve mankind. He does this by using a rock from a meteorite that hit Earth thousands of years ago that Daisy apparently keeps around her neck. Or some shit like that, we don't know, we would be usually asleep at this point.", condenses the red-black-haired huntress.
The blonde huntress also says, "His evil henchmen in this movie are creatures known as Goombas, and we have to admit, we honestly think they went out of their ways to make sure these creatures look NOTHING like the original game."
"It's like they're TRYING to piss us off. They're supposed to be creatures with no arms, giant heads and only two stubby legs. Here, it's human beings with shrunken reptilian heads! Damn movies with unfaithful character designs...", scowled the female attorney about the disappointing character design of the Goombas in the movie adaptation.
The black-haired huntress agreed, "Yeah, we bet.", as they then witness the police officer asking Mario of his name and last name, "Whoa whoa, we're gonna hear Mario's last name? Dude, we've NEVER heard Mario's last name before. This ought to be interesting."
"Cool, alright, so, uh...what's Mario's last name?", hoped the white-haired huntress before the girls heard Mario answer his last name as Mario, "Yeah, now what's your last name?", hearing the same answer once again to make sure, "No no no, what's your LAST name?", repeating the part if she heard incorrectly yet Mario pronounced his name as his last name again.
As the five heard Luigi pronounce his full name as Luigi Mario, with Mario's full name as Mario Mario, Ruby questions, "What is this, an Abbott and Costello routine? ...Are you fucking kidding me? They couldn't think of last names, so they just gave them their first names again? That's like something a kid writes down when he doesn't know the answer on a test saying, 'Mario's last name is...Mario. And Luigi's last name is...Mario too, because they're brothers you see, wait- No no no, father and son.'"
"They can't even think of any last name for them at least? Maybe something Italian, maybe? That is a fucking underwhelmer.", displeases Athena.
Yang outlines the next portion of the film, "Now one of the things you might be asking yourself is why in this version, as opposed to the game, is it Luigi that ultimately gets the hot princess booty? I mean, who does that leave Mario with? Big Bertha. Sorry, looks like the princess may be in another White Castle..."
"Unfortunately, the Duchess of Dairy Queen Big Bertha also has the rock, and steals it from our heroes, which unfortunately means a lot of THESE shots involving cleavages.", ensued Blake, "The only way to get it back is for Mario to use his balding Italian charm to seduce her. What some people will do for a role...", groaning after this.
Weiss discouraged, "Sadly though, most of the performances in this movie are downright terrible. I mean, I love Bob Hoskins, but half the time it sounds like he's coughing up a hairball. And every time I hear that New York accent, I keep expecting Roger Rabbit to pop up!"
"It seemed they had trouble with the accents in this movie.", presumed the orange-haired attorney.
The leader of team RWBY says, "But by far, the biggest award for killing a performance goes to the Poopa Scoopa Koopa himself, Dennis Hopper. It's literally like he woke up every morning and just said to himself, 'I'm not going to act today! I don't know WHAT I'm going to do, but it's not going to be acting.'", imitating this.
"In fact, what do you expect when you're in movies that have you saying lines like 'Bob-omb'? This is why you don't see Dennis Hopper anymore. In fact, you can actually pinpoint the moment where his career implodes in on itself by it. There is no other line in this movie that could destroy an actor's career so quickly. Besides his other line where he says 'Monkey!'.", considers the elder sister of Ruby Rose.
The Faunus professed, "The only thing that's KINDA cool about this movie is the way they teleport from one world to another. It's not a great effect, but it's pretty inventive when you consider it comes from a city covered in mushrooms."
"On top of the bad acting and the lame storyline, there's several lines of dialogue that are just entirely pointless. For example, there's a strange running joke where Koopa tries to order a pizza.", informs the Schnee heiress.
The female attorney conspiciously acknowledged, "Bowser ordering pizza... Altogether not funny."
"So the final conclusion we have to draw from this is, not funny plus not funny equals NOT FUCKING FUNNY! I mean, do these people have to go back to Film 101? If you want a joke to work, you need HUMOR! DON'T YOU KNOW THAT?! By the gods, we can't imagine this film getting any worse...", raged Ruby as she facepalmed, "Okay, we're gonna wrap this up before we puke."
Athena said, "Yeah, no kidding. This movie has issues with its treatment of its source material."
Yang climaxed, "The Mario Bros. get the rock back, stop the evil Koopa, turn him into a Muppet and return back home. Daisy can't go because she has to figure out where she belongs and they have themselves a happy ending."
"OR DO THEY?!", both Blake and Weiss blurt out as they saw the film's cliffhanger stinger ending where they would tease another adventure with Daisy decking out like a soldier, with Blake saying, "And, I am not kidding, this is where it ends. On a fucking cliffhanger."
Weiss confuses, "What's wrong? How does Mario know what's wrong? Why does Daisy have a flamethrower?"
"Well, thank the gods we'll never find out the answer to those questions. Super Mario Bros. Bob-ombed at the box office and thus never had a crappy Hollywood sequel.", Athena fortunately said, "Word of advice, Team RWBY. Concentrate on botching up the first shitty ass movie before you start thinking up ideas about how to fuck up the next one."
Then, the four members of team RWBY made their overall opinion of the Super Mario Bros. film;
Team RWBY said in unison, "Perhaps the biggest surprise of the movie is the fact that somebody actually wrote it. Not one, but three people actually played a part in putting this together. And would you believe that this movie actually had TWO directors? Because one director can't POSSIBLY make a film this bad alone. It takes two...with concerted effort."
"And that's all there is to it. In other words, Super Mario Bros. would have to be one of the worst video game movie adaptations ever made.", Ruby finished, "So, Athena. What did you think?"
Athena Cykes gladly revealed, "I'm happy to say the same opinion of it. It's best to play the games besides the movie, or maybe watch an animated Mario film over that, even!"
"It's all on the cards on how that will turn out.", Yang said, "By the looks of your video game collection, you sure are sort of a video gaming attorney."
The orange-haired attorney apprises, "My friends call me that when I told them my game review chronicles in my spare time."
"It's wonderful how we review distinctive things. Thank you for reviewing with us. Maybe some day, you could review a movie besides the games you reviewed.", suggested Blake.
Athena pondered, "I'll keep that in mind, actually."
"And maybe someday we'll review classic games if we have the chance. That is, if we meet each other again.", Weiss thought.
The teenage lawyer figured, "Yeah, because of your excursion... You have to return to Remnant at some point, maybe..."
"Tomorrow.", unveils Ruby.
Athena said, "Sorry to hear that. I may be available most of the time, but it would depend when in that case."
"Well, maybe if we go on a trip or have a sleepover, we could have you over, maybe. Who knows, maybe one of your friends could join!", hopes Ruby.
The orange-haired attorney smiled, "I'd agree. If it isn't bothersome, I could give you a lift back to the Westin Bonaventure hotel where you booked your stay."
"Well, that's very kind of you. We're so glad to have you as a friend. Though we're huntresses and you're an attorney... We review movies sometimes, and you review games sometimes... Very diverse.", says Yang fondly.
Athena replied, "I'm glad to have you as friends too. The people of Remnant are very courageous, you know.", before she said to the four, "Come on. I'll drop you off.", as the five left the room as they went down again.
"I really want to go to the pool before dusk.", Weiss said to Athena and her teammates.
Blake smiled, "I wouldn't mind sunbathing with you, Weiss."
"Me too, Blake.", hinted Weiss romantically.
Athena asks Ruby and Yang, "I presume they're in love with each other?"
"Yes they are, Cykes. Yes, they are.", both Ruby and Yang tells Athena as they reached the garage again.
And as they left in Athena's yellow convertible, the attorney had dropped off Team RWBY over at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel, where they waved and greeted goodbye to Athena as they watch her drive off into the distance, en route to back home whilst team RWBY reenter the hotel...
In the present...
EDO ISLAND
8:35 PM
"That day, Ruby. That was a review we could never forget.", Athena said to Ruby as the two, Yang, Blake and Weiss still looked out at the wondrous nightscape of the Samurai Kingdom, finally remembering the events of their first meeting in Los Angeles.
Ruby remembered once again, "Yes, the Super Mario Bros. film was a total letdown back then. The hotel we stayed at was in fact one of the major landmarks of True Lies of that chase scene with Arnold Schwartzenegger and the horse. You even showed us your gaming collection from classic Nintendo consoles, which was very nostalgic."
"As a matter of fact, ever since that day, the four of you were very nostalgic when it comes to reminiscence of films back in the day.", confesses Athena.
Yang adds, "No matter how angry or excited they make us."
"That is one of the important ways of being a part-time critic.", Athena said mellowly, "While our jobs may be far more important in our lives, we can sometimes try out different things, like our reviews for example, whether if it's cinematic, virtual, wellness and reactive."
Blake said, "For that, both our ways of understanding one another, protecting, and meeting new people makes our worlds much more bigger than we thought."
"And we can't for what lies ahead in the future.", Weiss remarked in a tranquil tone, "Even in the name of love."
The Faunus looked at her girlfriend and blushed, "Wai- You mean...?"
"Yes, someday we could...", teases the heiress.
Ruby and Yang guessed, "Marry?"
Both Blake and Weiss blushed to this predicament.
"No!", resisted Blake and Weiss in refusal, trying to hide their secret.
Ruby and Yang couldn't help but laugh their heads off, as the leader of team RWBY said, "Just joking with you, guys. Of course you two aren't gonna be married any time soon or later."
"You two look like a great couple.", the elder sister of Ruby Rose considers, "Yin and yang, black and white, that kind of stuff."
The Faunus and her heiress girlfriend look away and blush fondly.
Blake and Weiss both said, "Glad we all have the same outlook."
"Anyways...now that we had our moment of reminiscence... Let's go have a good night's sleep before we leave on back to Remnant.", Athena Cykes advised encouragingly.
Ruby nods, "Of course.", smiling, "We're really gonna miss this place. That is, if we return at some point, but that is a possibility."
"After all, we've enjoyed it thus far. More adventures await, more things to do, more places to explore in the future.", Yang confided her younger sister.
The five girls then proceeded to go back downstairs and back to the guest room floor to meet with the others and prepare to sleep for their last night in Edo Island before returning to Beacon in Remnant.
And like with their reminiscence of Sinon and Leafa, Team RWBY's friendship with Athena Cykes could never be better.
