I came too, tied to a chair I looked up and saw a highly peculiar sight. This was that Neo was sat on a chair opposite me with an inquisitive look on her face. I had to return this look since I had no idea why the tri-coloured miscreant had knocked me out and then proceeded to tie my unconscious body to a chair and then decided to sit and stare at me until I woke up, since all I wanted to do was see what the matter was.
Neo on the other hand was positively relived to see that see hadn't killed me and that I had finally woke up. She then got up and walked out of the room leaving me tied up. I took the opportunity to inspect this strange room and I came to the conclusion that I was no longer inside the warehouse and I was in fact in a completely different place. The room seemed to be themed the same as that minute villainess consisting.
It was a very simple room with the only furnishings being the chair I was tied to and Neo's chair being the only pieces. The walls on the other hand were a different matter entirely being bright pink to match the pint-sized rapscallion's hair, the floor was a nice brown carpet and the celling was white with a single light bulb hung from the centre of the room. 'This must be Neo's interrogation room' I thought to myself.
Several minutes past before Neo returned with a foldaway table and a pair of drinks. She first opened up the table before she set the drinks on top of it. She then sat down on her chair and faced me. "Why were you following me?" She asked in a soft voice that I could only just hear.
"And why should I tell you that?" I practically snarled at her.
"If I released your ropes would you tell me?" Neo asked gradually getting more impatient.
"Fine." I said and Neo walked behind me to undo the binds holding me to the chair. As soon as they were released I fired up my semblance and made a dash for the door. Suddenly something flew in front of my legs sending me flying straight into the wall.
Neo walked over to me with a disappointed look on her face. "Why did you try and run?" She asked looking down at where I lay on the floor, "Do you even know how to get out of here or how to get back to the beach?"
"Why do you think I tried to run? It's not every day that you get kidnapped by a criminal, not to mention someone who nearly killed your sister, for dusts knows what reason." I said
"You were following me and I wanted to know why and maybe get to know you as more than an enemy. Every Torchwick was killed I haven't had a friend in the world," Neo said sounding as thought she was about to cry, "But you quite obviously don't want to know me, so just go. You can call the police for all I care I won't keep you." I was taken aback by Neo's sudden change in personality. Had the last few years really been that bad for her? I stood up and against my better judgement, which was telling me to run and get the police, I wrapped her in a hug to try and comfort her, just like Yang did when we found out that my mum had died. Neo snuggled closer into embrace and started to cry. I started to stroke her hair to try and calm her.
We stayed like this for a few minutes before Neo pulled back from the embrace. "Why didn't you leave?" Neo asked with red and watery eyes.
"Well it would be against my huntress duties to leave someone crying." I said giving her a reassuring smile.
"Most people would just report me to the police, why didn't you?" Neo asked obviously still confused.
"Well I'm not most people and you need to stop asking so many questions and just except me being nice to you." I said playfully, poking her in the stomach to make my point clearer, "But before you do I have a question for you."
"Which is?" Neo asked perplexed.
"Why didn't you just stay with Cinder?" I asked.
"I never was a true believer. Roman was the only thing keeping me in the organization and with him gone I had no reason to stay. I already had enough money to sustain myself for the rest of my life." Neo said matter of factually.
"Well why didn't you become a huntress then?" I inquired, "You're obviously skilled enough."
"With my criminal record, I don't think I stand a chance, plus I'm too old to change now," Neo said.
"You're never too old to change, plus Ozpin is a fan of second chances."
"I still don't know."
"Come on it'll be fun plus I can see if I can get you sent on a mission with my team. We're third years now."
"Alright you've convinced me, let's go to Beacon and see if this Ozpin will let me in. It's not definite, but it's better than nothing right?" Neo said.
"Really, oh we're going to have so much fun together. I can't wait for you to meet, my friends. There's Weiss and Blake and Nora and Jaune and…"I was suddenly cut off by Neo shoving her hand over my mouth.
"Ruby we are going to have lots of fun, but remember it's not definite. For all we know Ozpin could call the police and have us arrested; me for being a criminal and you for helping a convict." I managed to remove her hand from my mouth and almost then practically yelled into her face, "But Ozpin won't do that. You see he's not like that. He even let me into Beacon two years early you'll see."
"I'm sure I will, but how do we get there?" Neo asked.
"Well if you take me back to the beach I can drive us there in my car." I answered exited.
"Well ok then." Neo smirked before we disappeared in a flash of white light.
