Hey, hope you enjoy chapter 17, the next couple chapters should be interesting, to say the least.


Emerald burst into the room. Yelling "I know where Roman is, but I need your help to get him."

Ruby stood up from her chair, "How can we trust you."

"Because, I am your only choice." Emerald said. "I know that Roman is underground, and when he does, he will disappear

and when he does, you will never be able to find him, until he wants to."

"How do you know that?" Weiss said, kinda angrily.

"You can't even find him, when he is not trying to hide." Emerald said smugly.

"We can, it is just taking sometime" Ruby said.

Emerald just raised an eyebrow, as she looked at Ruby.

"Okay, fine we need help, where is he." Weiss said.

"I don't know exactly where he is now, but I know where he is going to be in a month." Emerald said.

"Oh" Ruby said. "Fine, where is he going to be?"

"First, I need you to let Mercury go." Emerald said.

"Why?" Ruby said.

"I know you were torturing him, for days on end." Emerald said. "As much as he hates me for leaving, I still care about him, so please let him go to a hospital."

"Fine, I will take him to a hospital, as soon as you tell me where Roman is." Ruby said.

" I know that Roman is going to be in the Atlas airship docks exactly one month from today, but we only have one shot to get him, because if he manages to get on the airship, he'll go underground and after that we will never find him." Emerald said.

"How do I know that I can trust you?" Ruby said.

"Because I have proof." Emerald said as she pulled out her scroll, she then played a recording.

"Damn it Perry, I told you we need to get this ready for when I leave, so why don't you get off your ass and help clean this up so we can load this up for the airships next month." Roman's voice rang out of the scroll. "Remember people we have exactly one month to get this ready, before going to the Atlas airship docks."

"Alright, that is some pretty good proof." Ruby said. "We still need to talk to everyone to discus if we are to believe you or not."

"Fine, I will be back at 8pm. Talk to your friends by then." Emerald said as she stepped outside, and disappeared into the shadows.

"I think it is really creepy how they can do that." Ruby said.

"that is what you are thinking right now, seriously!" Weiss scolded Ruby.

"It is not my fault that they can do that, it is really creepy." Ruby said.

"Dolt." Weiss playfully said.

"Princess." Ruby fired back.

"Agh, you know that I hate that nickname, Ruby" Weiss said.

"Fine, if you are going to call me dolt, I will call you princess." Ruby said, as she stuck out her tongue at Weiss.

"Dolt"

"Princess."

"Dolt"

"Princess"

"Dolt"

"Princess"

"Fine, you win I will stop calling you dolt, if you stop calling me princess." Weiss compromised.

"No, but I like it when you call me, dolt." Ruby said.

"What, why?" Weiss said, surprised.

"and I think this is really cute, you should get a room, because it is hot in here." Yang joked. As she opened the front door.

"Oh, Yang when will you ever stop teasing them." Blake said as she wheeled her self in the house.

"Never, they make it to easy." Yang responded.

"Hey, Yang if you are so interested, why don't you join us." Weiss said, as she tried to keep a straight face on.

"Nope, fuck that come on Blake, let us leave these two alone." Yang said. As she helped push Blake's wheel chair forward.

"Well, that stopped Yang, you should do that more often"Ruby said.

"Yeah, I should." Weiss responded. "Now let us go back to what is at hand, when should we talk to them."

"About what?" Ruby asked.

Weiss flicked Ruby's for head. "About Emerald, you dolt."

"Ohhh, right, I completely forgot about that." Ruby said.

"Lets go talk with them" Weiss said as she grabbed Ruby's hand and dragged her to the room where Yang and Blake had gone to.


7:50 pm

"I still think that Emerald was lying, we have no reason to trust her." Ren said.

"No Ren, I have to disagree with you, Emerald loyalties were to Cinder, not Roman." Blake said.

"Yeah, but I killed her. How can we trust her?" Pyrrha said

"Lets put it to a vote." Ruby interrupted. "All in favor of not trusting Emerald." Yang, Ren, Pyrrha, and Nora hands went up.

"Okay, so it is a tie." Ruby said. "What do we do?"

"Fine, how about a compromise. Let us go with Emerald to the airship docks next month, but we will not tell her, all of our plan so just in case she betrays us we will be ready for it." Blake said.

Everyone eventually agreed to Blake's comprise, and when they all finally agreed. Emerald opened the door.

"Wasn't the door locked." Ruby asked Weiss.

"Oh, it was, you guys really need to have better locks." Emerald said. "so do you trust me?"

"Yes" Yang said.

"Okay, then we need to plan, but first hold up your part of the deal." Emerald said.

"Fine." Ruby said. "follow me."

"Oh no, I don't want him to see me. I just wanted him to be taken care of, please don't mention me to him." Emerald said.

"my lips are sealed" Ruby said as she mimicked zipping up her lips together.


27 days later. Three days left before Roman will be at the airship docks.

Ruby and Weiss were in their room and were currently rehearsing the plan they had made.

"and that is when we are going to" Weiss said, but stopped because Ruby had a worried look on her face. "Wait, Ruby are you okay?"

"Huh, oh yeah, I feel fine." Ruby said weakly, avoiding Weiss's eyes.

"No, you are not okay what's wrong, Ruby?" Weiss said.

"Fine, I just have a bad feeling about this" Ruby said as she stared Weiss in the eyes.

"What do you mean?" Weiss said.

"I don't know, I just don't feel good about this. It feels like something bad is about to happen." Ruby said. "I know it's stupid, but that does not stopping me from feeling it, so I want to give you something." Ruby said as she went to her drawer and pulled out a necklace. The necklace had a silver chain and there was a White Rose studded with diamonds, that made it glimmer.

"Oh, Ruby, it is beautiful." Weiss said. "But you didn't have to"

"I know, I was originally giving it to you during our honeymoon, but I am giving to this to you know, because I want you to have something to remember me by."

"What do you mean, Ruby" Weiss asked before understanding what Ruby had meant. "Ruby you are not going to die."

"I know, I know, I just want you to have it." Ruby said, as she showed Weiss the button. "It has this secret button in the back but don't press it until our honeymoon or I-I, you know."

"Ruby Rose, you will not die, I will not allow it." Weiss said.

"Weiss, Please take it." Ruby pleaded.

"Fine, but you have to promise me that you will not die." Weiss said. She knew that it was a stupid promise to ask, but she didn't care.

"okay, Weiss I promise you that I will not die." Ruby said.
