Both versions of team RWBY stood in silence as Ozpin continued to look out the window. None of them were sure if they should say something and as more time passed the silence only became more uncomfortable.

"So..." Ozpin finally said. They all looked at him as he turned and sat down.

"...I am to believe that you four..." he said and pointed at the older team RWBY. "...Are Miss Rose's team ten years from now." The women nodded.

"And through unknown means, traveled nearly a decade into the past and came face to face with your younger selves." Again they nodded. There was another long silence before Ozpin let out a sigh.

"Well stranger things have happened I suppose."

Both versions of team RWBY were surprised by his response. Did he really believe them?

"Professor Ozpin, you can't really believe this tale, can you?" Glynda asked.

"We live in a strange world, Miss Goodwitch. Who's to say what can and can't be? For all we know, something such as this could happen."

All the girls let out a sigh of relief, glad that Ozpin more or less believed them.

"But..." They all stiffened upon hear that word.

"Even though I believe your story, if I'm wrong and you four aren't whom I'm led to think you are, then your presence here may prove to be a risk." Ozpin explained.

"So how do we prove to you that we are who we say we are?" Ruby asked. Without a word, Glynda taped her scroll and walked over to them.

"Simply place your hand on here and we'll scan your fingerprints. If you match our information, then that will be your proof." She said. The four women looked at one another and shrugged. Ruby placed her hand on the pad and after about a second removed it. It was the same for the other three and after a few more taps of the screen both professors saw that the four women did in fact match their files.

"Well as hard as it is for me to believe, our files confirm your identities." She said.

"Man that's a relief, that had to be one of the worst thirty seconds of my life." Yang said.

"Exaggerating as usual, Yang." Weiss said. To their younger version's shock, the older Yang proceeded to flip off Weiss. Only to get elbowed in the gut by Blake.

"Yang, behave." She said with a glare.

"Fine." The blonde said as she crossed her arms. "You're luck your cute otherwise..."

"Yang." Ruby said frustrated.

"Sorry, sis."

The younger Blake managed to hear Yang's other comment and a small blush spread across her cheeks.

'Did Yang really just say I was cute? No it must be my imagination.'

After about an hour of talking things over, it was decided that since they had no way of getting back to their time, the future team RWBY would remain her at Beacon. Ozpin would provide them with everything they needed on the condition that should something major came up that they would tell him any relevant information. While at first reluctant, Ruby agreed. By the time they finished the sun had fully risen and no doubt the other student would rise along with it. As they left however, Ozpin went back to the window and pulled out his scroll. After a few moments someone picked up.

"Look I don't know who you are but..." a voice said. Ozpin just sighed.

"Unless you want an entire fleet of Atlesian Warships on your doorstep, I would recommend you allow me to speak with my colleague." he said. There was a moment of silence before a new voice spoke.

"Hello."

"Qrow, I need you back here."

"I'm kinda in the middle of something Oz. Can it wait?"

"Something has come up."

"No shit. Why else would you call at a time like this."

"Qrow...the matter concerns your nieces." There was a long pause before Qrow spoke again.

"Give me a second..." Ozpin suddenly heard the sounds of fighting and waited. Ozpin looked at his watch, almost as if he was timing the fight. Finally, he heard Qrow's voice again.

"Sorry about that. Now what were you saying about my nieces?"

Team RWBY and their future selves walked through the halls on their way back to their dorm, with Ruby practically bouncing off the walls in excitement.

"Oh this is going to be so cool! I'm so happy that Professor Ozpin believed us! I can't wait to hear about all the adventures we'll end up having, and how awesome we become! Oh and I can't wait to see what I end up doing with Crescent Rose! And..."

"Calm down you dunce. You're giving me a headache." Weiss said.

While their younger selves started to argue, their future selves watched as the memories came flowing back.

"Just seeing us like that bring back memories doesn't it, Weiss?" Ruby asked.

"Yeah. And again I see Yang was right when she said I had a stick up ass at this age." Weiss replied. Ruby laughed.

"She also said that you managed to work it out of your ass, but now you beat Grimm to death with it." this time it was Weiss who laughed.

"Also true." she said before looking into Ruby's single silver eye and Ruby into her icy blue ones. After they were certain none of their younger selves were looking, they reached out and took hold of the one another's hands. They laced their fingers together and Ruby gave a light squeeze making Weiss blush. They both knew that their younger selves would freak out if they knew what would happen, but if it did happen then they would cross that bridge when it came. Their tender moment was interrupted however when they turned the corner and were greeted by another familiar voice.

"Hey look it's Team RWBY! Oh and they have friends!"

They all froze at the sound of one Nora Valkyrie. Ruby and Weiss quickly let the other's hand free as their neighbors team JNPR came over.

"Morning guys. What's going on? And who are your friends?" Jaune asked only to be met with silence as the eight of them were all trying to come up with an answer.

"Uh..." Ruby managed to say.

'Oh boy. This day just got awkward.'
