A/N:
I haven't updated some time now and please forgive of it because I have some family things done and was out of town last time also which means no access to a laptop or computer.
And also busy playing Dishonored 2 in my laptop, let me tell you it was awesome! And also I just noticed that Mesirix almost acts like the outsider, but no relations to that I just forgot that little tidbit…
Now unto the chapter!

Blake has seen many things in her young life, being born into the White Fang and seen the fall of the peaceful talks and protests and its rise to violence and threats, saw her mentor ,Adam Taurus, kill those innocent workers in the train, enrolled into Beacon to atone for her sins, partnered up with the upbeat and carefree nature of Yang Xiao Long, and the incident of the forest earlier… but… but this is the most unbelievable thing Blake has ever heard… after following Cyclonis into prof. Rose's office and eavesdropping in their conversation and getting caught in the process.
"I don't believe you" Blake said as she stared at the two Prof. Rose(s) and Cyclonis "This must be some sort of trick."
"It's not a trick and it's forbidden to raise the dead especially a spirit." Cyclonis said as she crossed her arms, sill standing in front of the door.
"Then…" Blake glanced at a concerned Summer whom is a spirit of some sort and to the other Summer who is now having a downcast appearance as she still sat on the chair peices formed in her mind as she contemplate the authenticy of their words "But that's impossible… time travel is impossible."
"it is possible Blake." the sitting Summer said as she looked up towards the faunus, tears stained her face "Well… for us at least…"
"Us?" the cat faunus questioned, which Cyclonis answered "She meant us, Belladona, her, me and the rest of Team TRAK. And your not the only one who knew about this… now."
"Then you lied to everyone!?"
"A simple false information in our part Belladona, we need proper cover, and she or they" Cyclonis gestured to the two Rose(s) "Haven't have the courage to say it in front of their family"
"But her cover in where she…"
"Wasn't a lie either, its an alternate world, mostly destroyed now…"
"Destroyed? How?" Blake asked, dreading the answer
"The Grimm, some of these are humans and faunus worshiping them and… the White Fang"
Blake, angered by hearing the white fang caused the destruction of the word tried defending their actions, "That is a lie! The White Fang would never-"
"That is after they killed miss Xiao Long in the assault of Beacon and others alike…" Cyclonis said as she now held a folder, as she glanced at Blake "Care to look?" Blake made no move "I see that is a no then, but never mind that, right now you know about this operation,"
"Operation?"
"Preventing my… no our future Blake" Summer said as she now stood up and looked at the other Summer "Mom can… can you look over Ruby, or the other me for a bit?" in which the other woman nodded and disappeared from the room leaving only three people.
"Then that means… your really Ruby…" Blake said as her eyes widen when the pieces started to form a clear picture.
"Yes, Blake it me, Ruby, and as for our future it will end up like that world." Summer, no Ruby, said as she placed her hands on her shoulders "And please listen to me… the White Fang is a lost Cause* during the assault in Beacon (sigh) Yang lost her arm…"
"What? How?"
"Oh I don't know maybe a love hungry maniac with a sword, maybe?" Cyclonis answered in poor sarcasm
"No… he wouldn't"
"He did, Yang said to me that she overheard what he said to you, I quote 'And as I set out upon this world and deliver the justice mankind so greatly deserves, I will make it my mission to destroy everything you love.' after that you left Yang with the others and left."
How could this be? Adam would harm everything she cared just because she left?, then she is not safe or anyone she interacted is safe… then the others…
"How about the others? Weiss? Jaune? Ren, Nora? How about Pyrrha?" seeing the depressed mood future Ruby made, it unsettled her, when she heard Pyrrha's name
"She…" Ruby began "She died fighting Cinder Fall."
"Cinder Fall?" that name sounded familiar but where did she heard… no not where but when, she remembered before her departure Adam and the Fang was approached by a woman with two others with her, she addressed herself as… "She was there… the day before I left the Fang…"
"Oh?" Cyclonis said, still leaning on the door "Well we now have a lead, to one of the horsemen"
"One? You mean she is with others?"
"Thats right." Cyclonis said "Summer, or Ruby I will notify my father about this developement and also I will notify Ozpin that miss Belladona now knows or identities." with that she left the room.
After seeing Cyclonis leave Blake now turned to the older version of her leader "So I guess its true?"
"I'm afraid so Blake" Ruby said as she sat down on her chair, sighing, "In the end we won…" Ruby let out a bitter laugh "We won at a great price at that… all I cared about are gone, You, Yang, Weiss." Blake couldn't help but notice the way how Ruby said Weiss's name, it sounded like she… with that thought in mind Blake blushed luckily Ruby or Summer never noticed it, then they started talking about the some parts of the future and as time went on they noticed that it is almost curfew "I guess I should go now… and I would like to say I'm sorry about earlier."
"It's alright, but please Blake don't mention this to anyone okay? I… I want it to be me who tell them but right now I think the time isn't right yet."
"Alright professor, goodnight." with that the cat faunus left.

The bar doors open to let in a man wearing a trench coat and a fedora, as he neared the bar where the owner is at he quickly noticed the change in the atmosphere but choose to ignore it, after all he was more dangerous then them.
"What do you want?" the man at the counter said
"Oh, nothing amigo," the fedora man said in an accent "I'm just browsing in the goods, but,"
"But what?"
"I wish to speak to this establishment's owner if you please."
"Oh yeah? That would be me, names Junior, and who do you think you are asking for me?"
"Oh where are my manners, my name is Tubalcain Alahambra, and luckily for you amigo. I wish to do business with you." Alahambra said as he took a drag from his cigarette
"Yeah sorry but I don't think I appreciate it considering I know who you are, another information broker that works next to a cafe." Junior smirked
"And that amigo is why I came here, you see I am looking for a man in this picture recognize him?" Alahambra placed a picture in the bar as Junior looked at it and answered "Nope never seen him before and I thought you knew."
"Oh that is why I came here instead, you see I know he works for you and right now he failed to check in correct?"
Angered Junior shouted back "Alright, you think you can waltz around here and demand things? Well let me tell you punk we will beat your sorry little ass out of this place and we will kill you afterwards. Then we will get one of my men from you" with that the men in the bar, those who work for Junior readied their weapons especially two women who look alike.
"Oh that's to bad I guess considering, your man, is dead after we took any information we need from his little head." with that Alahambra struck the first move in blinding speed.

A/N:
Yeah mostly more dialogue, and not my best chapter so far in my opinion and also now we see again the last member of the task group of phantoms in remnant.
Also need to remind you all that I am not great with fight scenes so yeah fight scenes may be skipped and appear in later chapters or the like or in special chapters I might implement.
