Raven underestimated how hard it would be to raise two little girls at once, as well as spend time with her oldest daughter.
Yang, there was an issue Raven never wanted to face. Never let it be said that she had dumb daughters. Yang figured out that Summer had passed away a mere two months later, and all by herself too. Raven was sad to see her daughter crushed by the news, and guilty when she had to reject Yang's request to visit her at Beacon.
Though what no one realized was Yang's growing contempt for her half sister. A contempt that grew whenever Raven mentioned Ruby, which unfortunately was quite often.
Ruby and Neo, on the other hand, were having the time of their lives. Granted, Beacon was never equipped to handle small children, especially not two very young girls with maiden powers. Luckily, the incidents were limited to occasional gusts of wind, frozen mustaches, and static shocks.
The girls really enjoyed all the care the faculty and students gave them.
Especially the day before the anniversary of Summer's and Karamels death.
It was the day of and Raven and the girls had all the emotional support they needed to go to the gravestones. A day that would see them have a new addition to their 'small' family.
"Are we almost there mommy?"
"Soon, sweetie."
'Really?'
"Really Neo. Now come on you two, or it will take us all day." Ruby and Neo both nodded and picked up their pace.
Time actually passed pretty quickly on the quiet trip. The trail had weaved through the forest to the cliff overseeing the ocean. Near the cliff edge were two gravestones. The first had a Rose carved into it and read 'Summer Rose-Branwen. Thus kindly I scatter'. The other didn't have an emblem, but read 'Karamel Sundae. The warmest heart in the tundra'. The mood became somber. "Hey Momma, it's been a while," Ruby started first. She didn't know why she was talking to the gravestone, but it felt right. She paused and looked up at her human mother who gave her an encouraging smile. A smile that was turned to Neo as well who nodded and began her silent conversation.
"We really miss you, but we're doing okay. We moved to Beacon with Grandpa, and it's been really cool. Everyone's been really nice."
Neo wrapped her arms around Ruby and she returned the embrace.
"This was her favorite spot, don't know if I told you girls that," Raven said softly. "This is also where we had our wedding," Raven closed her eyes trying to stay strong for both girls.
Ruby and Neo looked at each other, tears already running down their faces, and then hugged Raven's a while of crying and consoling each other, the trio turned to leave. They said their goodbyes and promised to come by later. But as they were about to enter the forest to leave, A high pitched yawn sounded behind them. They turned back to find a small two tailed fox waking up on the cliff.
"Mommy?"
'Can we keep it?'
"Um, sure?" Raven wasn't quite sure what else to say. She wasn't prepared to deal with the combined puppy eyes of Neo and Ruby today.
The girls squealed in celebration and darted towards the animal that was still opening its eyes. Mismatched silver and light brown found the approaching girls and went wide. Neo and Ruby were blinded by a sudden puff of flame just before they reached the fox and found that only empty air remained where their target once stood.
"Awwww," Ruby deflated
"I'm sorry sweetie, maybe we'll see it again," Raven comforted the two girls who were disappointed that the creature vanished. After the girls let out one last whine of defeat, they once again turned to go home.
Several hours later
"Remember girls, eat your ice cream before it melts and drips on the floor. Dear brothers, what was Ozpin thinking making that tub of ice cream," Raven grumbled as she opened the door to their apartment they had been living in for the past year. Ozpin had two rooms meant for teachers renovated into a single apartment. "That man always amazes me with his willingness to do the ridiculous."
"Mommy, um, look," Ruby pointed at the couch in living room, and right in the middle of it was the two-tailed fox from before. It was peacefully sleeping while curled in on itself.
'Is this how you get a fox?' Neo's sign said with the addition of a cartoon fox head.
"I'm gonna pet it," Ruby exclaimed as she slowly approached it. When she got within a few feet of it, the fox raised its head and looked her in the eye. Ruby stopped and gazed into the mismatched eyes, there was an intelligence to them. "Can I pet you?" Ruby asked meekly. The fox nodded approval with a soft look, and Ruby began gently petting it.
"Well, I guess we have a fox now, I'll let your grandpa know. Glynda's gonna flip."
Neo prodded Ruby's shoulder so she could show her sign. 'What are we gonna call him/her?' The sign had a heart in the bottom right corner this time.
"Shin. it's a word from old mistralian that means heart. What do you think?" The fox looked at the two girls for a moment, then it closed its eyes as if mulling over the name. Eventually, it opened its eyes again and let out a short high pitched bark that sounded like a confirmation.

Ruby was sitting at a desk near Beacon's forge with a bunch of sketches 'Mom already said no to a scythe, I want something fast so large weapons are out, Too many swords everywhere-"
"Hi Ruby," as a welding mask appeared in front of her
"WHAH," Ruby fell over, as Ruby recoiled from her fall she saw the form in front of her drawings "AUNT PEACH STAP," Ruby jumped up only to be stopped by a hand
"These designs are not that bad, why aren't you using them," Peach looked down at Ruby
"I haven't found the one, as you would put it, Mom still won't let me use a scythe for some reason and I've gone through evreeeeeeeything," Ruby groaned in frustration
"How about a wakasahi," Peach looked at Ruby
"Ah, wakisushi?" Ruby gave a look of confusion
Peach gave Ruby an offended look "No wakizashi it's kind of a Katana's dagger."
Ruby thought about it for a bit then nodded "um, do you have one I could try,"
"Um no, last time I made a weapon an idiot broke his broadsword, and I needed to make him a spear," Ruby gave an 'o' sound only to hear a maniacal cackle come from the white-coated professor "Alright let us begin, so what do you want it to be made of," Peach started to draw a simple wakizashi
"Not sure," Ruby realized had been to caught up in the weapon then what it would be made out of
"Alrighty then, Titanium it is, Any enhancements?" Peach wrote it down
"Is there any way of making it deadlier," Ruby gave a mischievous smile
Peach cackle "Well we could make it monomolecular,"
"Wha,"
"It's essentially one molecule thick,"
"OH, but won't the blade be invincible?"
"Not Exactly but that's for another time anything more,"
"Could we make the blade extend out," Ruby looked at a rough sketch of a wakizashi
"YeP,"Peach wrote down the final item "Okay, Well then let's begin,"
1 hour later filled with maniacal cackling
Raven was heading to the forge as complaints from students something about Maniacal screaming 'Peach better not be making Ruby a scythe, I don't want her or Neo anywhere near that drunken mess,'
As she entered the forge she had the unfortunate pleasure of seeing Ruby and Peach standing on tables laughing maniacally with lightning bolts flew everywhere "WHAT THE HELL,"
"RAVEN/MOM YOU RUINED A MOMENT," Ruby and Peach both glared only to get an even worse one from Raven and got off the tables
"What were you two doing? I was getting complaints from students about maniacal cackling " Raven glared at both making them nervous
Ruby looked up to Peach " We were making my new weapon?" Ruby winced and looked away from the glare only for it to be moved away from her
"Peach is it a scythe?"
Peach started to sweat a bit under the pressure, "No it's a monomolecular titanium wakizashi with an extendable blade."
"Good," Raven started to walk away "just keep the hysterical laughter to a minimum,"
Ruby looked back at the forged "So is it done,"
Peach walked to the forged "Yeah it should be and it's gone,"
"Wha," Ruby walked up to the forge only to notice only to hear a bark from behind them as they turned around to see Shin holding the wakizashi "So is shin holding the monomolecular wakizashi,"
Peach nodded "Yes,"
"Should we worry," Ruby slowly turned to Peach
"Possibly,"
"So why aren't we chasing her,"
"Because a teleporting fire-breathing fox is holding it,"
Ruby slowly walked up to Shin only for her to teleport away "Shin please come back I need my weapon," Ruby then looked outside to see Shin looking directly at Ozpin's tower and erupt into flames"NO NO NO,"
Peach looked outside to notice the same thing "Welp I am so fired," Peach said as she heard screams coming from Ozpin's tower
