This mission had not gone to plan.
A few days before…
Summer was sitting at the dining table staring at the wall.
" Hey honey what are you doing,"
"Recollecting, still can't believe our little pups first words, still haven't forgiven you for that," Summer's eyes narrowed
"Hey she hasn't said any of the words since," Raven retorted
" She still said them, anyway where is she?" Summer looked around
"In the living room playing," Raven kissed Summer's forehead only to hear a ring coming from Summer's scroll only to notice a mission. "Why are you needed in Atlas for a small village being attacked they should have sent someone closer?"
"I don't know but if they did it means something really tough,"
"Okay but what are we going to do we where suppose to go see Tai and Yang today,"
" Well the truth to Tai and have him tell something to Yang,"
"Okay just don't die please," Raven looked into Summer's eyes sorrow filling her own
"where did this come from?" Summer hugged Raven
"Not sure just please,"
"Okay, now I am getting offended that you would think that a couple of Grimm would do me in,"
"Heh,"
"Well I gotta go," Summer grabbed her gauntlets Dancing Pedals before scurrying off
7 hours later
"Miss Rose this is as far as we can take you." a man announced over the intercom.
"Thank you" Summer got off the bullhead. and looked at her scrolls 'okay so I need to go, northeast the village is named Inciglapito. Which is-' "REALLY 2 DAYS" Summer looked at her scroll with an indicator notifying her that even if she found another pilot willing to take her even closer it would still take her 12 hours.
1 day later
"Dumb Dad not giving me enough information. Having to walk for 1 day straight. That and there have been no grimm. what the hell." Summer kept on trekking thru the snow her wolf ears flopped down.
"HELP" a feminine yell was heard.
'Time to help' Summer sprinted towards the scream she could start to see outline 'there, found them' Summer teleported and blocked the Ursa strike and drove the blade of her gauntlet into its chest.
"Thank you, I am not sure if we would have survived," the woman got off the ground and started to sway her hands cradling a young girl.
"Oh no problem, the name's Summer Rose," She waved.
"Karamel Sundae, and this is my little girl is Neopolitan or just Neo," Karamel introduced herself as the small girl moved behind her.
"Hello Neo," Summer crouched and smiled at Neo. Neo just shifted more behind her mother's leg whimpering. 'Maybe she doesn't trust me.' "Don't worry you can trust me," Summer smiled.
"Sorry, Neo is rather shy," Karamel said as she picked up the young girl.
"I know how you feel," Summer sighed. Neo finally looked at the cloaked woman. Summer got a good look at her eyes one brown the other pink, "you have Heterochromia iridum." Neo started to nuzzle into her mother's neck. "Did I say another thing wrong?"
"Because of Neo's eye condition other children make fun of her,"Karamel sighed "Some even use violence."
"That's horrible, in my opinion, Neo you have the second prettiest set of eyes I have ever seen," Summer smiled warmly at Neo.
"Whose are the first," Karmel asked Neo turned to look at Summer curiously.
"Well, my lil pup of course!!" Summer looked at them her wolf ears straightening . "She also has silver eyes like mine. Let me show you a picture," Summer then pulls out a picture of her hugging Raven while cradling Ruby.
Neo blushed a bit 'She is cute'.
"And who is the woman carrying your child, your big sister?" Karamel held the picture.
"That's my wife and her other mother," Summer had a proud grin.
Neo looked at the picture. 'How can she have two mammas,'
Summer looked up. "Before I forget, do you know where Inciglapito they have sent a distress call."
"Yes they are having a lot of trouble with Grimm as of late. We live close by. If you would like, you could stay with us while your helping the town."
"Thank you I appreciate the offer, but first we should head towards the village." 'Something is odd about these two.'

Raven pulled out her scroll and started a call "Hey Tai,"
"Hi Rav when are you two coming over Yang is getting ready to punch the house to dust"
"Well can't Summer had a mission to go on and we didn't didn't get a sitter,"
"Why not bring Ruby along?"
"I don't want Yang to think the reason I left was because of Ruby,"
"What about Ruby's grandpa,"
"The school year just started so he's ridiculously busy," Raven finished only to hear movement
"Mom, is that you when are you coming?"
"Hi sweetie I am sorry to tell you but Summer and I can't go,"
"Why not,"
"Well we have a mission to do,"
"Okay finish soon so you can get over here,"
"We will, see you soon," Raven ended the call "Now, to deal with you," Raven turned around face turning serious to see a baby girl playing with a toy grimm on the floor who look up at her and giggle destroying her serious look. "Ruby for dust sake stop being so adorable," Raven picked up Ruby only to have her boop her nose making a 'boop' noise. Raven's heart tighten 'Oh gods did she give me cuteness heart attack '
"Momma awe yu oky?" Ruby asked head turned and her wolf ears flopping down and confusion on her face.
"Yea honey it's just your too cute," Raven smiled at her daughter. 'I pray that you never weaponize your puppy eyes.'
"Momma do you thik mom is goin to be oky?" Ruby's face turned grim.
'New objective never make Ruby sad.' "Of course she will be now come on let's bake some cookie to prepare for when mommy gets back."
Ruby smiled and started to bounce "Les go!!!"
Raven's smile lessened 'please Summer make it back for her.'
Ruby "COME ON MOMMA!"
Inciglapito
"Well here we are," Karamel looked at the home which was a small rundown house
"Wow," Summer wasn't sure what to say
"We know it's not the best home but it's our home, right my little ice cream," Karamel looked at Neo who gave her a confirming nod.
After all three of them got in, Neo tugged at Summer's cloak "Thank….you," Neo whisperer
"No problem and quick question what faunus are you I'm a guess you and your momma are foxes," Summer smiled as she crouched down to touch the second set of ears causing Neo to hum.
"Be careful she might not let you go," Karamel sighed. "Neo come on we need to get you to bed," Neo yawned before hugging her mom who picked her up before taking her to her room Summer following suite. 'Maybe they wouldn't mind coming back with me '
"Really that story," Karamel sighed when Neo gave her a confirming nod "you really like this story."
"Cause it's true," Neo smiled gently at her mother as she bundled up
"Really why do you think so my little ice cream?" Karamel put a knowing face
"Cause your one of the maidens mama," Neo smiled as sleep overtook her.
As she finished speaking Summer's eyes widened 'If she is one of the two then dad needs to know fast'
"You don't believe her do you," Karamel worried expression was all Summer needed before she activated her maiden power.
"Summer Rose Summer Maiden Wolf Faunus Mother of Ruby Rose-Branwen and Wife of Raven Branwen who is the Spring Maiden at your services," Summer smiled as her eyes spewed flames.
"Wait your the daughter of the Ozpin the wizard!?!" 'She must really trust me to tell me the location of two maidens as well as her father oh well a truth for a truth' Karamel sighed before focusing and her eyes spewing a white flame "So where's the fall maiden?"
"Not sure we are still looking for her, but why didn't you go to Ironwood or my dad,"
"Knowing Ironwood he would jump for joy at having a maiden and a small defenceless child that he could use as a test subject to use for his experiments, and it wouldn't be easy to bring a child with me all the way to Vale and even if so we made a home here,"
"Well I kinda need to at least inform my dad so after I am done with the mission I would think he would be glad to give you and Neo a home near Beacon, and if I convince Raven we could move closer, then Neo could become friends with Ruby," Summer started to jump and get a huge grin
"Well now I want to help you finish," Karamel smirked before moving towards a closet
"Are you sure, I am not sure how effective your fists would be against grimm," Summer looked at Karamel concerned
"Of course not I am gonna use this," Karamel pulled out a parasol and then detached the hilt to revel a sword. "Her name is Cherry,"
Summer's eyes widened and sparkled "Wow this is amazing the actual parasol is made of dust lined silk," Summer kept on talking.
"You really like weapons," Karamel looked at Summer with a disturbed look
Summer gave a sheepish smile, "You wouldn't believe."
"Well I am getting tired, I'll be heading off to bed," Karamel sighed before heading off to her room.
Summer heard steady breathing come from Karamel 'Dang forgot to ask where I was sleeping.' Summer then heard movement coming from Neo's room, Summer sneaked inside to see Neo sweating, twisting and turning 'Probably having a nightmare, oh I know.' "Strawberry and sugar song, Chocolate and a bitter step all tied down by Red marmalade, The sweet and bitter taste is one more memory we can't forget, it ties us together through one tiny link, it'll help create as spectacle that no one will ever forget," Summer sang lowly rubbing Neo's fox ears waiting for the little girl to fall asleep.

"Momma?" Ruby opened the door, walked in and jumped on the bed?
"Humh?" Raven sluggishly opened her eyes to see Ruby at the foot of the bed with tears streaming down her face "Ruby?"
"Can... I sle...ep with you," Ruby sobbed as she hugged her mom.
"Of Course honey come on," Raven smiled as she she placed an arm over her daughter, "Strawberry and sugar song, Chocolate and a bitter step all tied down by Red marmalade-"
"The sweet and bitter taste is one more memory we can't forget, it ties us together through one tiny link, it'll help create as spectacle that no one will ever forget," Ruby finished and afterwards yawned and snuggled closer to Raven who tightened the hug 'How are you and Summer so similar, both adorable, both unbelievably energetic and both cookieholic.'
