While most of her team had left their dorm to spent some time outside, Ruby had stayed back inside. After looking around to make sure she was indeed alone for now, she moved over to where she had placed the duffel bag with the belongings she had brought with her to Beacon.
After she put Rosebud's stone heart to the side to reach what she had stored beneath it, the redhead pulled out a set of stone working tools. Moving to the closest wall, she made sure that the heavy red cloak wasn't getting in the way, especially with all the ornaments she had added to imitate her teacher just a little more.
Once she reached the wall, she put the chisel to the stone it was made of and began to carefully carve arcane Runes into it, unsure how strong or thick the wall actually was.
Half an hour later she was nearly finished with the first of many symbols that would allow her and her cousin to teleport out of their dorm directly into the classrooms once they were infused with energy, when a hand gripped onto her shoulder and turned her around.
Standing behind her was Yang.
"What are you doing Ruby?" the blonde asked immediately. "You know we aren't allowed to use anything but our semblance and Aura where others could see it. You are already toeing the line by bringing Rosebud."
"I will cover them up after I am done, don't worry." Ruby replied, shrugging of Yang's hand as she tried to turn back towards her work.
Relaxing just a tad at that assurance from the younger girl Yang replied. "Well okay then. By the way what do you want to have our walls do?"
"Well I was getting sick of having to walk all the way to class everyday, so I want to try and set them up so we can just teleport to class in the mornings."
Hearing those words Yang thought back to the first time their teachers had used the shifting stones Bradigus had set up to teleport away from the house.
"So that should do it" Bradigus said as he took a step back from the trio of man sized stone pillars covered in now glowing runes. Turning to a young Ruby standing next to him he continued. "Let's see if they work shall we?"
After a vigorous nod from his young student he directed one of his Woldwatchers to step into the space between the stones. With a short pulse going through the stone's glow the energy contained in them began to take effect as with a loud clap of thunder the construct vanished.
Looking carefully the two of them could barely make it out over 40 feet away.
"What was that?!" The two of them could hear Taiyang yell out from the house.
Turning around they could see the blond man leaning out of the kitchen window, behind him the two could make out the sad remains of a few soufflés. "Next time you two play with your sticks and stones warn us!"
"I don't think that's a good idea Rubes." Yang commented as Ruby began to carve the next rune into the wall.
"Why? It would save us so much time each morning." Ruby replied quickly, slightly confused what problem the blonde had with her idea.
"Well you do remember how loud it is? Because I am sure the first time we actually use it every other student will know we are hiding something." Yang explained causing Ruby's shoulders to sink in defeat as she lowered her tools. But what shocked both of the young druids is when the voice of Ruby's partner sounds behind them.
"What are you two hiding from us?"
"Good job keeping secrets Yang"
