(A few days later)

(Vale Police Deparment Headquarters)

(Future Ruby Pov)

'Damn, so even though I totally fucked over Cinder everything still plays out the same. Well Glynda did go and give her a scratch on her face and she is missing part of her arm."

"They started It!" I heard a very familiar voice say.

'Was I always so cute? Guess Yang was right, I do owe her fifty lien.'

"If it was up to me young lady, you would be sent home with a pat on the back…"

I cringed at what would happen next.

"… and a slap on the wrist! But there is someone who wants to see you."

Ozpin walks past me and I hand him a plate of cookies and give him a look that says "Take this, it's dangerous to go alone."

After Ozpin enters the interrogation room, I message Qrow that I'll be stopping by the house on Patch and hit up my Yang telling her to bring the guests in about fifteen minutes.

"More than anything." I hear mini-me say. I must have missed a good chunk of the conversation. I sigh, I miss the naiveite I had at that age.

"Well then Miss Rose, it is late how about I have one of your new professors take you home."

'Well that's my que, better make it count."

I step into the room and lean against the door frame, wearing my combat outfit sans armour and corset. "Well then I should probably introduce myself, I am Scarlet Branwen and I'm your new combat instructor."

I look at her/my face thinking 'Damn this is going to be confusing am I her or not. Fuck it, I'll think about it when I'm sloshed'

Mini-me opens her mouth and out comes a near unintelligible set of words "areyourealatedtomyuncleqrowhowoldareyouwhatweapondoyouuse"

I almost burst out laughing but manage to reel it in. "First off slow down little rose and second to answer your questions, yes, 24 and it's a secret. Well then we best get going wouldn't want to worry your dad, now would we."

Mini-me pretty much jumps out her seat as I leave the room, following me like a lost puppy. After we made it out of the building, I turn to her and say "The last bullhead left a few minutes ago, so I'm going to use my semblance to get us to your house, understand?"

(Rose-Xiao Long household)

(a few seconds earlier)

(general Pov)

"WHAAT! You got into a fight, trashed another bar looking for your mother and you left Ruby! I'm disappointed Yang." Taiyang had pretty much screamed at his older daughter for the events of the night.

Ding.

Taiyang stared at Yang before moving towards the door, leaving a very drunk Qrow to comfort her. As he opened the door, he found two figures wearing red cloaks, he obviously recognized the shorter of the two - what type of parent would he be if he couldn't. it was the older of the two that threw him of he was getting vibes of Ruby, Summer and Raven of all people.

"Hey Dad can we come in? Scarlet here has to talk with us about something."

Taiyang let his daughter and the woman going by Scarlet into his house. Scarlet walked in and hung up her cloak before taking off her jacket and hanging it up. It was only then that everyone, including Qrow got a good look at her. Her hair was styled like feathers and went down past her butt, her bust was a few sizes larger than Yang, who at an F-cup was possibly the most well-endowed woman on Patch. Scarlet (Future Ruby) stretched as she took of her mask, bringing emphasis to her already large chest. As she took off her mask everyone else in the room thought the same thing 'Raven' until she opened her eyes revealing a very familiar silver at which Taiyang, Yang and Ruby all thought 'Summer'. Scarlet took a seat before pulling a very familiar flask, although this one was much older looking, and pouring its contents into her mouth. Scarlet said "Well then we have a lot of ground to cover today, but let's wait for the rest of our guest to arrive." Just then a red storm cloud looking portal opened up a few feet to the left of Qrow. Out of it came three women, the first was a tall woman wearing black and red Mistrali-style armour along with a very familiar hairstyle and mask. The next was just as tall with golden hair in an ankle length high ponytail wearing a brown trench coat over a specialist's jacket. Underneath the jacket was a yellow crop top emblazoned with a very familiar burning heart symbol and the same pants and combat boots combo as Scarlet, on her face was a mask styled to look like an Ursa. The last woman was half a head shorter than the other two wearing a white cloak and the same outfit as ruby with white instead of red and skintight jeans instead of a skirt.

Everyone in the room sans Scarlet was shocked at the new arrivals. Ruby whispered 'Mum?!" while Yang froze up at the first arrival not knowing what to do and Taiyang and Qrow just stared in shock. The first woman being Raven Branwen simply took a seat on the empty couch and removed her mask while the second arrival being Future Yang took a seat next to Scarlet and the last woman being Summer Rose flipped down her hood before meekly saying "I'm home."

Author's note number two

the night has been long in the bathroom, the house is being refloored, I don't know why I'm writing this note this way.

Anyway yeah, my house is being refloored so things might be tough, specially seeing as I spent yesterday camping out in my bathroom. Any ways I already told you two of the major pairings for the story. Those being Freezerburn and Ladybug, but I'm planning on having play out more like Pollination, by the way as I've been dropping the parentage of Ruby is a tip of the hat to one of my favourite stories on this site Linked in Love and Life by Omegainfinity (sorry if I spelt that wrong) I love the dynamic in that story and I want to try it out myself. Who knows I might be better at romance than I thought. Also, I got a name for Future Ruby isn't that great! I have a name in mind for Future Yang, but I'm a keep that a secret. This is TheGreatAndEccentricNarrator singing off.
