(Sera): you can blame me for the delayed release

Eden:always blame Sera :3

(Sera): I'm a very blamable person.

Eden: so just to be clear.

"Hi" is speech

"Is thought"

'Yo' is Neo's sign

"Bold" is bond

We do not own anything of importance, otherwise Strawberry Ice cream would be canon yes yes it would

"Ugh," Ruby groaned in her bed.

'Kill us,' Neo held up a sign with poorly written font.

"No I won't kill you it's just a simple fever," Raven looked at Neo before giving her a pill which was swallowed .

Raven was honestly at her wit's end with her girls being as sick as they were. While their complaining was blowing their summertime colds out of proportion, her daughter and adoptive daughter were rightfully bedridden. Shin looked absolutely confused on which bed to hop into to top things off.

'This is not a fever, it's death coming for us,' "The migraines are back," Ruby held her head as she heard the door open.

"Took you guys long enough," Raven looked back as Peach, Ozpin, and Glynda came through the door.

"Soorrrry, but Beacon can't exactly run itself and we had classes to take care of," Peach smiled as she moved towards Ruby.

"Yes, not all of us can and will drop everything for a few sick children," Glynda sighed while glancing over at Ozpin who had his arms laden with a ridiculous amount of groceries.

"I have no idea what you're talking about Glynda."

"Of course you don't," the blonde grumbled, "now, how are they doing?"

Peach had just finished her examination of the girls when the question was asked, despite Raven constantly pestering her throughout the entire process. "They're fine, their fever has gone down and should break soon," Peach growled as she shooed Raven back.

"Then why are they in so much pain?" Raven seethed.

Peach just crossed her arms and gave the mother a disbelieving look, "They're still sick, the body pains will pass soon after the fever breaks."

"Ugh, their arguing is making my head hurt worse!" Ruby internally cried as to not worry her mother further.

"Same here."

"..."

"..."

"Neo?"

"Ruby?"

"Can you hear my-"

"Thoughts, yes,"

"Mom," Ruby and Neo looked on as the adults arguing "Mom," Ruby and Neo gave each other a look as they rolled their eyes "MOM!"

"What, Ruby," Raven looked back in slight annoyance.

"We think we figured out the problem."

"Yeah it's just a fever," Peach looked back to the two with a rather unamused expression.

'Well then we are going crazy, because I can hear a voice that sounds like Ruby.'

"And I can hear a voice that might sound like Neo," Ruby commented.

The silence in the room was deafening.

"I don't think they believe us," Neo sent to Ruby with a grimace.

"I'm not sure I believe us," Ruby responded with a blank look on her face.

"We're talking with thoughts right now, how can you not believe us," Neo growled through the link, bond, thing that now connected her to Ruby.

"I dunno, this is really weird," Ruby retorted once again, this time actually looking Neo in the eyes, "by the way, your voice is almost as beautiful as your eyes." as Ruby finished her thought a bright blush crept up on both girls' face making the adults in the room look at them more and more concerned.

Raven sighed "What's wron-" 'NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!' Neo held up the sign, while Ruby had to stifle a giggle.

"Great, so now the worst troublemakers in Beacon can talk to each other telepathically," Glynda groaned as Shin rubbed against her leg empathetically.

Peach looked at the group around her dumbfounded, "wait so we aren't going to be running tests or anything to make sure that, these two aren't lying?"

Ozpin looked back to the ginger haired maniac, "well the instantaneous blushing and quick refute of anything, is enough. Plus, these girls have no reason to lie to us about this."

"NO! we need answers!" Peach retorted.

"And by we, you mean you," Glynda asked.

"Duh, I still need to answer how it happened and why it happened, and the full extent of their capabilities," Peach stated making everyone else sigh.

Ruby was the first to get out of her delusion, "Do we really nee-"

"FOR SCIENCE!" Peach yelled.

'but we need res-'

"FOR SCIENCE!"

"Okay, no I am their guardian and I say-"

"F O R SCIENCE!" Peach grabbed Ruby and Neo and headed towards Beacon's infirmary, followed by a panicking Ozpin and Raven.

"Why do I even bother," Glynda rubbed the bridge of her nose, as Shin barked to comfort her, "at least you can comfort me." Shin barked once again with a something approaching a shy smile on her face.

Beacon's Infirmary

"Why are we in the tubs?" Ruby asked as she looked down towards Peach.

"I neeed to figure out if there is any alterations to your bodies, be it aura or vitals."

"I think she lost it again," Neo commented.

"I don't think she ever had it to begin with," Ruby retorted.

"True enough," Neo mentally sighed before a sly smile and slight blush made their way onto her face. "Wanna compliment my eyes and voice again while she goes nuts?"

Ruby buried her face in her hand as it lit up like a christmas tree.

Outside Beacon's Infirmary

"How can you not be able to open the door, you're the headmaster!" Raven barked at her father-in-law.

"And Peach is a technical genius," Ozpin retorted. Before he could resume his attempts to get the door open and rescue the girls, his scroll rang. Pulling it out revealed that it was Qrow calling. "Qrow wouldn't call out of the blue like this if it wasn't extremely important."

"Qrow, is everything alright," Ozpin coolly answered the call despite Raven still trying to get him to get the door open.

"I found her, I found Fall."

(Sera): and cliffhanger, cause we're evil.

Eden: also cause it's been like a month and we didn't have many ideas and also didn't want it to drag out

(Sera): that too.
