Towa couldn't help but let out a sigh as she sat there in front of the girls who were shifting guiltily not able to maintain eye contact. Meanwhile Mira and Amber were sitting off to the side exchanging a glance as Towa soke up,

"Ok let me get this straight, in the past day you finally admitted you were a Faunus albeit by accident, ran away immediately, met another Faunus who you originally ran into by him escaping a ship which he stowed away on therefore making him a criminal and inadvertently proving Weiss's original point. Got overly sensitive towards what you perceived as a personal attack-"

At that comment Blake and Weiss were about to speak up in protest before a raised brow from Towa made them rethink it and she continued,

"And after the previously mentioned talk you not only went after a known criminal organization regardless of your past history but also engaged a known criminal mastermind but did so without calling in any additional support and would have failed immensely if not for the timely arrival of the rest of your team. Did I miss anything?"

Blake took a moment to think over everything that was covered and tried to defend herself by saying,

"I don't think I would have failed like you said, I think your not giving us enough credit for our skills!" Meanwhile Towa just scoffed and said,

"Ms. Belladonna I saw the footage and I can assure you that not only was Torchwick calm the entire time but he also had an assassin hidden away ready to kill you if you took any further action. Luckily for you even a novice criminal could tell you had no true killing intent in your actions."

After that comment Blake widened her eyes at not seeing an accomplice besides the white fang and her team wasn't much better knowing that she could have died then and there.

"B-but how? None of us saw anybody else besides the white fang and we took out a majority of them before anything could happen who else could have been there?" Weiss asked in shock that her friend and teammate could have been through such harm and her prejudices would have played a part in those actions.

Mira seeing how she was reacting understood where her mindset was leading and knew that his next comment would be harsh but necessary for them to grow in capable fighters.
"Blake's actions are not your fault, while you took action any foolishness she partook in is ultimately her decision."

Tired of what she was perceiving as slander against herself and with her tired mindset Blake lost control of her mouth and snapped,

"Who are you to call this foolishness! You don't know what it's like to have past crimes just weighing on your head and the guilt of needing to take action to fix your mistakes!"

After that everybody widened their eyes with the exception of the three adults in the room and while Amber looked towards Mira and Towa knowing their pasts and the actions that led to them being in their world the girls only had an abridged water down version so she could understand why the misconception would exist,

But as for Mira and Towa the words struck a chord in the two knowing that to receive redemption they would have to do much more than they currently are and yet they don't know how, Towa spoke up to reprimand Blake and from what it looked like Ruby was about to do the same but they were all cut off by Mira,

"You speak of something you must of forgotten you heard about, It was Towa's and my own actions that led to ourselves and Acon being here, It was because of us that Acon and I were in a literal deathmatch putting our homes at stake because of our own petty lust for power. It was because of us that Acon is faking his reactions and barely holding himself together although he doesn't show it at the knowledge that his team could be scattered around the kingdoms or even the world at risk all because of our actions"

Taking a moment to collect himself before Mira lost control of his emotions he continued speaking,

"How dare you say none of us know about guilt but truly it is you who does not understand the true meaning of guilt or loss or suffering, this is not to demand your own experiences or say it is on the same levels as ours but to make you aware that your suffering is not the only suffering in existence. Every night I train until I break and heal and train again in order to break my limits. Every morning we learn about the kingdoms to improve our knowledge. Every day Towa is in the lab researching trying to find solutions to our current situation when we are not learning all the while recovering from her previous experiences at eh hands of our so called allies, Apsara is still recovering from an attack that severely weakened her before you all arrived at Beacon yet the pain remains and Acon… Acon is struggling with a problem none of know how to overcome, training until he goes even further than breaking, getting up recovering and training again all the while trying to find any leads on his team who we still have no idea on what the situation is regarding them. And overall Towa and I both know that this. Is. OUR. FAULT!"

He stopped his rant after he raised his voice and Amber placed a hand on his shoulder in consolidation while Towa just closed her eyes and gripped her staff at the reminders and unintentional memories of suffering at the hands of the demon clan before she earned their respect. And Jinn who was standing in the hallways closed her eyes trying to find answers to help the ones who freed her from her prison. And Amber just squeezed her fist in anger thinking to herself,

'I'm supposed to be a maiden, an epitome of power, a literal beacon for the good and yet I was still defeated just because of some tricks and my own naivety and I'm only here because of luck and mercy.'

While as for team RWBY they sat in shock not only at what they just found out but also because of how much their own situation was weighing on their minds. Blake looking at Mira just stumbled out the words,

"Wha-why didn't any of you say anything I thought we were friends!" Amber just scoffed and said,

"We thought about, really we did. But honestly I'm happy we didn't" and she paused a moment seeing the teens indignant reactions to that before she continued,

"After all look how you all reacted to your own problems when one insignificant issue nearly destroyed all the work you built as a team." After that comment the girls faces gained looks of depression knowing that she was right about what she said.

'Why did I even bother trying to keep this a secret. I really am a coward'

'She's my partner, and I was to concerned about myself to know what was bothering her'

'I can't believe I acted like that, I guess I really am no better than my father'

'What kind of leader am I?'

Seeing the self-deprecating thoughts caused the three adults in the room

to make eye contact, having a silent conversation before coming to a consensus. Towa sighed and said,

"We were originally planning on holding this off until Acon and Winter returned but now, I believe it is in everybody's best interests to move this forward and I insist that you all return to the dorms tonight and calm down and in the morning you along with your sister team come meet us immediately after breakfast understand?"

Ruby looked up quickly thinking that they were about to kick them out for bringing their problems to them and gasped before asking,

"Wait so you aren't mad at us?" Towa looked at her with a small smile remembering her time as a child before the demon clan took her when she would look to her older siblings for approval before saying,

"Of course we aren't silly girl, while you all may be frustrating there is untapped wells of potential in you and we intend on using it. So if you seek to get stronger and avoid these situations from now on you will be here and we will make you all stronger. Understand?"

The girls all looked up before giving simultaneous shouts of agreement and running back to their dorms in excitement for the next day. Amber looked over at Towa and asked,

"You sure about this? If it goes liked we all talked about then that means that while we aren't technically going against Oz and Salem it still means we are going to be on our own you know that right?" This time they heard a voice coming from the elevator causing them all to bring their attention to Jinn who walked in after staying out of sight to avoid any unwanted interactions with the teens,

"Of course they are sure, after all I knew immediately after I revealed the ongoings and pasts of Remnant, seeing the look in all of your eyes made me aware it was only a matter of time before you all took this cold war into your own hands am I right?"

"Hmph of course, after all the meathead that Acon is was getting antsy living a domestic life going to school, besides the only times a Saiyan is still can only be when they are sleeping or dead and even death won't stop them right Mira?" Towa asked sending a sly smirk towards Mira who grunted in the affirmative.

Amber looked towards them all and clenched her fists knowing that while she couldn't reach their levels of power she would get stronger in her own way before getting some well-deserved payback on Salem who manipulated Cinder into attacking her.

'Wait manipulated Cinder what? How would I know that? And what are these memories?" Amber clutched her head bringing the attention to her while her body flared with a green energy causing Towa to immediately bring out her staff tapping it against the ground before saying,

"That was temporal energy! What's going on Amber are you ok?" And after taking a deep breath Amber spoke up,

"Guys I don't know what's going on but I think I just saw Cinders memories and she met Acon and Winter before, and what's even weirder is I think she was a kid then. And there was a purple guy and a powerful grim and it was crazy what's happening to me?" She asked looking scared. Meanwhile Jinn used a bit of her power and widened her eyes before humming,

"Well that's interesting now isn't it?"

Alright sorry for the long delay everyone! I swear I didn't abandon my story! But now it's about to kick off and I'm already working on the next chapter for you all!
