Saturday afternoon, Jaune and his team were in Vale. Ren wanted to buy ingredients for his smoothie and for Nora's pancake. Nora was, well…she was looking for a restaurant that's offering all you can eat pancakes. For Pyrrha, she was scouting out places for a wonderful date. She has some idea of activities to do on her date with Jaune, but she hasn't thought of the venue of their date.

As for Jaune, he was accompanying his team since he has more knowledge of Vale as he's lived here for two years. Jaune showed his team where the best places to buy what they needed at a fair price. However, the problem is what Ren wanted, as his ingredients were weird.

After a few hours of going around Vale, the team headed back to Beacon as it was getting dark, and they'd spent enough time roaming around the city.

Once they arrived outside their dorm room, Jaune and his team heard arguments from team R.W.B.Y.'s dorm, and it was intense. Weiss was shouting about her hate for the White-Fang, while Blake told her that she was ignorant and a bigot.

"Damn! That's one hell of a fight," Nora said. She then looked at her team leader and spoke. "Do you think we should help them?".

"I do, but they would need to work out their differences if they want to get along as a team," Jaune said. "However, if they ask us for help, then I don't mind lending them a hand and some advice".

"I guess that's fair," Nora said. She then pushed everyone inside their dorm room. "Come on, I couldn't find an all you can eat pancake shop. I need my Ren to make me some".

"Nora, I don't have the equipment to make pancakes in our dorm room," Ren said. "And I don't think Miss Goodwitch would appreciate it if I was to cook food in the dorm".

"Come on, Ren!" Nora said. "Miss Goodwitch would never find out as long as no one tells her. Plus, I already have all the necessary equipment".

Ren sighed, and he complied with Nora. Jaune and Pyrrha didn't stop Nora since they enjoyed Ren's pancake.

In team R.W.B.Y.'s dorm room, Yang and Ruby continue to observe their bickering partners.

"I don't understand…." Weiss said. She looked angry and irritated. "I don't understand why this is causing such a problem!".

"That is the problem!" Blake said. "You don't understand anything!".

"You realise you are defending an organisation that hates Humanity, don't you?" Weiss said. She was sick and tired of the White Fang. "The Faunus of the White Fang are pure evil!".

"There's no such thing as pure evil! Why do you think they hate Humanity so much?" Blake said. She was giving her own views. "It's because of people like Cardin, people like you, that force the White Fang to take such drastic measures!".

"People like me?" Weiss asked. "What does even mean?!".

"Are you really asking that?" Blake said. She was irritated at the way Weiss was acting. "You're discriminatory!".

"I'm a victim!" Weiss shouted as she leaned in close to Blake. "You want to know why I despise the White Fang? Why I don't particularly trust the Faunus?

It's because they've been at war with my family for years. War, as in actual bloodshed. My grandfather's company has had a target painted across its back for as long as I can remember.

And ever since I was a child, I've watched family friends disappear; board members executed; an entire train car full of Dust stolen. And every day, my father would come home, furious. And that made for a tough childhood".

"Weiss, I…" Ruby was about to say something to calm her down, but she was cut off.

"No!" Weiss shouted at Ruby. She then looked at Blake. "You want to know why I despise the White Fang? It's because they're a bunch of liars, thieves, and murderers!".

"Well, maybe we were just tired of being pushed around!" Blake shouted back at Weiss.

Blake realised a second later what she had said. The silence was all there was in the dorm of team R.W.B.Y. A surprised Weiss backs away slowly, and Blake looks around at her teammates.

"I... I..." Blake tried to say something, but the way her team looked at her prevented her from saying anything. So, she dashed out of the door in a hurry to get away from them.

"Blake, wait!" Ruby shouted. She tried to reach for Blake, but she failed. "Come back!".

Ruby runs over to the door and calls Blake down the hallway as Yang sits herself down and Weiss looks down. Jaune then opened his team's dorm room and looked at Ruby for answers to what was going on.

"Ruby?" Jaune called. "What's wrong? I heard loud footsteps that sound in a hurry".

"Jaune, it's Blake!" Ruby said. "S-She runaway after saying something I think she didn't mean to tell us! We need to find her!".

"Does it have something to do with being a White-Fang member?" Jaune said. "Because if that's the case, you don't have anything to worry about since she left the Fang some time ago".

"Whoa! Hold on!" Yang said. "How do you know that?".

"Oh…Uhm…I don't know what you're talking about," Jaune said. He then tried looking away from the remainder of team R.W.B.Y. to avert answering the question. But it wasn't working, and they were staring at him. "Fine! Let's head somewhere, like inside our dorm room or your dorm room".

Ruby, Weiss, and Yang followed Jaune inside his team's dorm room.

"Okay, spill," Yang said. "What do you know about Blake being a Fang member? And how do you even know about it".

"Well, you see, I have a certain skill with computers," Jaune said. "I happen to be quite good at it".

"Oh my gosh!" Ruby said. The way Jaune said it made her think of her comic about a guy who is very good at computers and can hack into anything. "You're a hacker!".

"Shush!" Jaune said as he covered Ruby's mouth. "Yes, I can hack even the CCTS. I may have hacked into the Beacon system to look at something. I'm not going to say anything more than that. But while I was on the system, I saw Blake's application".

"Does that mean you know about all of us?" Pyrrha asked. "That's…".

"What? No! I didn't look at anyone else's files," Jaune said. "The only reason Blake's file stood out was that it was flagged by Ozpin for further analysis due to the Belladonna name".

"Belladonna?" Ruby asked. "What does that have to do with anything?".

"Really?! Do none of you know the Belladonna name?" Jaune said. He looked at his team and team R.W.B.Y. They all shook their heads. "Wow! Weiss, I heard you hated the White-Fang, yet you don't even know who it was that started it all".

"Hmph!" Weiss said. "Why do I have to care about a terrorist?!".

"Because that person you're calling a terrorist is Blake's father, Ghira Belladonna," Jaune said. Everyone's jaw dropped. "Now, moving on to Blake. Ozpin flagged Blake's application due to the Belladonna name, and he had her investigated by someone called Qrow Branwen to make sure she wasn't a threat.

Blake being at Beacon means that Ozpin didn't see her as a threat. From what I can tell from the file that I read that day. Blake had a falling out with the Vale branch leader due to her not believing in his cause any longer. She left him after a mission of blowing up a train and stealing the Dust inside. But Blake didn't know that he planned to let the people in the train die, which caused her to abandon him".

"Wait...Qrow Branwen?" Ruby said. She looked at Yang. "As in...".

Ruby once again couldn't finish what she was saying before Weiss interrupted her.

"Hmph! It doesn't change anything!" Weiss said in a huff. "She was still one of them!".

"Yes, she is, but can't you see that she's trying to be a better person?" Jaune said. "She's trying to use the skill she learned in a bad place for good. She's trying to prove to people that not all Faunus are as horrible as the radical Faunus of the White-Fang".

"Jaune is right, Weiss," Ruby said. "Didn't you come here to Beacon to get away from your father and show the people that you're nothing like him? How is that any different from what Blake is doing. To be fair, your family is just as bad as the White Fang. The only difference is that your father pays people to keep his illegal activities hush-hush, something the White Fang can't do".

"How dare you…?!" Weiss said. "My family is nothing like the White-Fang!".

"Hmm…Are you sure about that?" Jaune asked. "I can use my skills with a computer and dig up some dirt on your father. I bet it wouldn't even take that long".

"Hmph! Go ahead. I bet you find nothing!" Weiss said. She knew that Jaune would find nothing. Albeit not because her father was clean, but because he is good at hiding his shit. "My family and the S.D.C. have done nothing that would constitute that they are as horrible as the White-Fang".

It didn't take Jaune long to hack into the C.C.T.S. and connect to the C.C.T.S. of Atlas and search for hidden life from the S.D.C.

"I got it!" Jaune said. He then put it up on the dorm room's shared holoprojector for a better view. "You were saying, Weiss?".

Everyone looked at the files that Jaune had found of Jacques Schnee. There were files from Slavery to Torture to Murder. There was even a file of Faunus being branded on their faces. However, those weren't the worst. The worst was that some Faunus children from the family of dead Faunus employees were kidnapped and tortured to become a slave.

"This is sick!" Pyrrha said. She was about to hurl due to pictures on the files of what was done to the people. She looked at Weiss dead in the eyes and spoke. "And you say that your family and the S.D.C. are nothing like the White-Fang? I guess you would be correct as they are worse!".

"I-I…I didn't know about any of these…." Weiss said. She wasn't lying. Weiss knew her father was doing underhanded things, but nothing so drastic. She was afraid that her friends would hate her, that she was in tears. "I thought all he did was make some shady deals; I didn't know about all these things! You have to believe me!".

Ruby and Yang hugged Weiss to calm her down.

"Now you see," Jaune said. "You pushed Blake away for being in the White Fang. Why shouldn't your other teammates push you away for being a Schnee? The answer is because they know the difference between what you did and what the S.D.C. or your family did. The same goes for Blake. She was part of the White Fang, but that doesn't mean she killed people, or she's out to get your family".

"Y-You're right!" Weiss said. She wiped the tears from her eyes. "We have to look for Blake! I need to apologies for everything I said to her".

"There's no point now," Jaune said. "It's too dark out and past our curfew. We can look for her tomorrow".

"Wait! Jaune, Pyrrha, don't you both have a date tomorrow?" Ruby said. "Y-You don't have to worry about Blake. We'll handle it".

"It's fine, Ruby," Pyrrha said. "We can always reschedule the date for next week. Finding Blake is more important".

"Pyrrha's right," Jaune said. "Finding Blake is more important".

"I still can't believe that fearless leader can hack the system of C.C.T.S.!" Nora said. Jaune then made a shush motion towards her. She then whispered instead. "Sorry! By the way, Jaune. Can I ask you if you could change my grade in the system to an A for History?".

"No! I'm not doing that," Jaune said. "If you need help studying, I can help you, or Pyrrha and Ren could".

"Aww! That sucks!" Nora said. She then got to her bed and started eating the pancake that Ren had cooked earlier. "Hmm…this pancake is delicious!".

Jaune shook his head and led the remainder of team R.W.B.Y. back to their dorm rooms. He made sure that they stayed in their room since if they tried to leave and look for Blake, they might get caught by Miss Goodwitch, and they could get detention. Meaning they wouldn't be able to search for Blake.
