Patriot-112: Hello my friends! And here is another redone chapter of Warning from the future!

If you have noticed some things that are still left in the chapters, that's because I deemed those salvageable and left them where they were. I hope you also enjoy the extra content I putting into these chapters, which helps increase the length of the story.

Now then, enough of my rambling, let's continue!


Chapter Three:

The Champion & The Grimm Reaper


Beacon Academy, Ozpin's Office

Kingdom of Vale

One School Semester Later


It had been at least a full school semester, 15 weeks to be exact, since Taiyang had learned about his youngest daughter's future self and the hell she had to endure. And true to his word, he stayed at Beacon in order to protect her, under the guise of a Combat Instructor, much to the daughters of said man's surprise. It has also been that same amount time since Ruby Rose, along with her Team, along with Team JNPR were formed after their initiation. The teamwork that both teams showed was exemplary, especially when both teams worked side by side with each other, even though there was minor bickering between Weiss and Ruby, and some...rather embarrassing moments from the Young Arc, though he made up for it for his quick tactical thinking.

After Initiation, the two teams would occasionally mingle, and talk to one another...but, there were a few minor hiccups that happened.

First, there was the incident at Forever Fall Forest, where an Ursa Major came upon on the class field trip, composing of Team RWBY, Team JNPR, and Team CRDL. The third, already establishing a reputation as being a Bully gang toward many other students, attempted to force Jaune Arc to throw a jar of tree sap at his partner, but he refused, and instead threw the jar at the Team Leader, Cardin Winchester.

The rage Cardin felt, as well as the beatdown that the Arc received from the Winchester and his gang, attracted the attention of the Ursa. While the other members of the team fled, Cardin was unfortunately caught by the bear type Grimm, and would've been eaten, if it wasn't for the white Paladin who, with a little help, managed to kill the oversized teddy bear.

He later found out why Team CRDL was trying to force Jaune to do so in the first... And that was because Jaune had used forged transcripts to get into Beacon, with the only person he ever truly told about, being Pyrrha herself, due to a argument they were having, which he won't try to go into detail explaining.

But, as the story goes, coincidentally, Team CRDL's room was located directly below them...with the window open...with Cardin listening.

So, in essence, it was a case of Blackmail. Something Ozpin was used to seeing all the time during his long time of death and reincarnation.

Then there was the incident in which Blake Belladonna, Team RWBY's Faunus in hiding, ran away in fear after the Schnee Heiress' non stop degrading of the Faunus, more specifically the White Fang had gone too far, and she accidentally revealed her secret to them.

This, understandably, caused her to run away from the school, and was missing for two days.

Thankfully..., or unfortunately, however you look at it. She was found, along with Sun Wukong of Haven Academy, busting a heist of SDC containers by Torchwick, and unsurprisingly, by the White Fang. Of course, they weren't alone, as helped arrived in the form of both Ruby Rose, the younger version, and Penny Polidenia, James' new...student.

After those incidents, the rest of the Semester went by rather well. And although he knew of Jaune's false transcripts, he did nothing about it.

The boy was clearly willing to do whatever it took to live up to his family's legacy, so why stop him?

That brought up the OTHER parts of team JNPR: namely, Pyrrha Nikos. Ozpin learned for watching other videos on the Older Ruby's scroll, that despite only knowing for a short time, the Rose Reaper, along with everyone else, looked up to her, and even began to love her as a sister. Even citing how she still had nightmares from the night of when she died in her timeline.

Speaking of said girl, he heard the elevator ding at it's arrival, and the door opened as the said redhead entered. She was clad in her signature Demetrium bronze Huntress armor, along with her signature circlet on her head, with her waist length red hair done up in a ponytail. Her respective weapons were absent, having placed them back in her locker.

"You wanted to see me Headmaster?" she asked politely, as she stood in front of his desk.

"Yes." Ozpin said, and motioned to the chair in front of the desk, asking her to sit down, which she did, "I wanted to talk with you about the Grimm attack at Forever Falls during the last Semester. I haven't brought sooner, cause I was busy with...other matters. So I apologize that I'm bringing this up now after all this time,"

Pyrrha shook her head as she gave a smile.

"Oh no, it's alright, Professor. After all the saying goes, better now than never. And yes, Jaune fought off an Ursa Major." Pyrrha said, while Ozpin took note of the slight pink on her cheeks, "He saved Cardin, the team leader of team CRDL. Even though he didn't deserve it."

Ozpin noted the clear edge in Pyrrha's voice, clearly showing that she still had a bit of a grudge against Cardin for what he did to Jaune..

"Yes, while they are bullies, and their motivations are...questionable, to say the least, no one deserves to get killed by a Grimm." he said, while Pyrrha nodded, knowing the headmaster was right.

"Yes, I understand." Pyrrha said, "After that incident, me and Jaune are now sparring in order to sharpen his skills. He has a long way to go, but he has a good heart and is determined,"

Ozpin nodded at that, while smiling.

"That is good. It is a excellent trait to help others who are struggling, even those who used...fake transcripts to get into Beacon," He said, and Pyrrha's vivid green eyes widened in worry at that, but before she could say anything Ozpin raised a hand to calm her fears, "Don't worry, I don't intend to expel him. With someone of your caliber training him I have no doubt he'll be a great Huntsman like the rest of his family."

Pyrrha blinked at that. She was worried the boy who actually treated her like a normal person instead of a celebrity (and who is also the target of her growing affections) would be expelled. But thankfully, it appears that the Headmaster won't let happen.

"Th..Thank you, Headmaster!" She said, happily.

Ozpin smiled at that, before it quickly fell as he sighed. This girl was his second choice to replace Amber, if something were to happen to the current Fall Maiden. But now with the Future Ruby interfering, that was unneeded.

But, of course, with said woman's current condition, and the fact that how her own Maiden Powers worked and how they transfer from one host to another is currently unknown, that could possibly change fast.

"Headmaster, is something wrong?" he heard Pyrrha say in concern.

The Headmaster looked at the Mistralian champion, and the girl blinked at the solemn expression on the old man's face. Said Headmaster knew this was the right moment, and it was time to take the plunge.

"Tell me, Miss Nikos. Have you ever heard of...time travel?" He asked, making the Mistralian blink in surprise.

"I...well, yes. Except in sci-fi films and comic books." Pyrrha said honestly, "I heard some scientists say it maybe probable, while others say it's impossible...from what I read at least."

After Pyrrha answered, she saw the Headmaster nod, while still keeping his current expression.

"...Why?" She said, as Ozpin sighed again.

"What if I were to tell you...that it's actually, truly, possible," he said, making Pyrrha blink as her brows raised slightly. That caught her off guard.

"I...I beg your pardon?" she said, just as the elevator door opened again.

In walked two of her teachers, Glynda Goodwitch and Taiyang Xiao Long, along with a man with graying black hair and red eyes (which looked like Yang's when she got mad or used her semblance), General James Ironwood of the Atlesian Armed Forces and another girl right around her age.

Pyrrha, feeling a sense of dread down her spine stood up from her chair as she warily looked from Ozpin to the new arrivals.

"W-What's going on?" she said cautiously, and Glynda was the one to move forward, holding her hands out to calm her down.

"It's alright Miss Nikos, there's no need to be alarmed," the professor placated, "Just hear us out,"

Pyrrha's expression didn't change as she turned back to the Headmaster who pulled out the scroll held by the Elder Ruby. When the Mistralian saw it, her eyes widened at seeing the Red Burning Rose on the device, as well the faded colors and small scratches and minor dings.

"T-That's...that's Ruby's scroll," she managed to say.

Which was impossible: Ruby had her scroll. She saw it prior to coming up to Ozpin's office.

"Please take a seat, Miss Nikos," Ozpin said, "What you are about to see, will definitely make you see Miss Rose in a whole different light."

Pyrrha was now greatly concerned and almost afraid of what it was about Ruby that could warrant her being here. But, deciding to just go with it and get the answers, she sat back down into the chair, the unease still strong in her.

The headmaster activated the holographic display, playing a vid file.

What looked like an older Ruby appeared on one of the screens. "My name is Ruby Rose. I'm twenty five years old, born in the Kingdom of Vale, and a former Huntress student from Beacon Academy. If you're watching this, and you're not me, then something must've gone wrong."

The Spartan stood wide-eyed as she watched the vid recording continue. Her expressions changing from shock, horror, and finally sadness at what she was hearing, especially the part where her partner would die, two years after her. The girl, who she only knew for 15 weeks, but was already a close friend, had endured ten years of hell... and even witnessed her death at the hands of a woman named Cinder Fall. She was also horrified at the details of a future war with the source of all Grimm, a grimm-like woman named Salem. When the message ended she was undoubtedly in tears.

"There are personal messages for everyone. Including your team" Ozpin said, making Pyrrha look at him, "...You were actually at the top of the list."

"M-Me?"

"Aside from Team RWBY, you and Mister Arc are at the top of the list." Glynda clarified, while the Mistral Tournament Champion was surprised at that. "And as we can't exactly trust Miss Rose yet to keep a secret, you were our first choice."

"Your future death hit the Elder Ruby hard," the mystery man said with a sad sigh, "She claimed it was her biggest regret that she couldn't save you in time."

Pyrrha by now, was beginning to feel more and more like a little child instead of the famous champion she trained to be, as she turned to the Scroll and saw her name at the top, close to Team RWBY's names. Hesitantly, she reached out and pressed her name on the scroll.

The vid started playing, displaying Ruby carefully holding a familiar sword, but it looked different considering it had a more golden outline, and appeared sharper.

In fact, it was the very same sword belonging to her partner and teammate.

"H-Hello, Pyrrha... Fuck, nine years and it still isn't easy." The older Ruby muttered, "People would probably call me crazy for doing this. But, unfortunately, no one else is around to judge or say anything about it, so...yeah."

The Spartan winced. "Point is, this message is for you. Mainly, to say that... I'm sorry...that I couldn't get to you in time." she said, tears beginning to show, "You probably heard what I said in the first vid, when I said that you died. Well... let me fill in the blanks for you."

Pyrrha actually gulped, not exactly looking forward to this.

"When Jaune called us on Weiss' Scroll, begging us to save you, me and her rushed to the CCT in order to get to you. However, the Grimm kept delaying us as much as possible, until Weiss used her glyphs so I could run up the side of the tower..." Ruby's face fell as her hair shadowed her eyes, "...but, I was just two seconds too late. I arrived, just in time, only to see... that fucking whore shoot an arrow through your chest, and to add insult to injury...she...she burned your body to ash, leaving only your shield, pieces of Milo, and your circlet behind...,"

Pyrrha actually paled at that. Her hand unconsciously grasping over her chest where her heart is.

"When me, Jaune, and the rest of your team went on our journey to Haven, which took us six months to get there by the way, we had to stop at a village in Anima in order to help them with a Geist problem...," Ruby continued, as she shifted the modified Crocea Mors in her lap, "...in exchange for dealing with the Geist, the town's blacksmith would make modifications for Jaune's sword and shield, and a new set of armor for him...of course, he had to make the difficult decision of using your circlet as part of the modifications...you have no idea how hard it was for him to do that,"

Pyrrha could barely imagine how Jaune must've felt after her untimely death, and the emotional struggles he had to endure. She watched as Ruby held up the sheathed sword, before activating the shield configuration.

The champion of Sanctum Academy had to admit, the Demetrium bronze went with the white shield very nicely. Then, her eyes reached near the bottom, and her heart dropped as she saw the familiar shape of the front of her circlet emblazoned proudly.

"Of course, considering who we were going against, Jaune needed all the upgrades he could get...and in his own words to me once, it was his way of carrying you into battle," Ruby said with a sad smile, before she gave a sniff, "Jaune was...devastated when you died, Pyrrha. I can... still remember every time at night, he would go out, and away from the rest of us while we were sleeping, just so he could train, using the videos you made for him to do it."

Pyrrha's eyes actually widen at that. She did make a few videos for Jaune to use, in case she was called away, or too busy to train him...but, in that alternate time...

Her hands reached up to her mouth as she gasped, trying to keep the coming sob in her throat, which prompted Glynda to immediately walk over and comfort the poor girl.

"Of course...it was made worse, due to the fact that when we ran into Cinder at Haven, he was almost killed by Cinder, if I hadn't unconsciously used my Silver Eyed powers to stop her...and then, there was the incident while we were staying at his sister's place in Argus, where he attacked Oscar, a recent friend... After receiving some depressing information we were given." Pyrrha heard, while still being comforted by Glynda, "Then, after Oscar ran away, and we went searching for him...he...found a statue of you in Argus Park, honoring you for your bravery at Beacon...he told me he was filled with so much grief, longing, and self-loathing for what happened to you, even confessed to me that he believed it should've been him, not you, that died...,"

Pyrrha's face gained a horrified expression at that.

"But then...someone came along and told him otherwise...someone, who was in the same amount of grief as him, but knew you didn't regret your decision...," Ruby said as she smiled softly, "I don't think she told him who she was...but, I can bet one hundred percent, that it was your mom, Pyrrha,"

Pyrrha could only close her eyes as tears leaked, and ran down her cheeks. She couldn't bear to imagine how her mother must've been through when she received the news of her death.

"Afterwards, he got better, though he said that while he will live on for your sake, he told me that he wouldn't love another girl again," she continued, making the champion perk up at that, "Afterall, you were his first kiss."

That last sentence made Pyrrha's face go red for a moment before she managed to get it under it control.

"He admitted, that kiss actually made him realize the feelings he had for you, ever since you two partnered up in the Emerald Forest during Initiation, and when you unlocked his aura, forming a permanent bond between you two." Ruby lamented, "He regretted that even though the two of you realized you loved each other, it was only that one moment you two ever had."

The Mistralian could only feel her depression worsen at that, especially what she learned what happened to Jaune later on. She watched Ruby wipe her eyes of the tears that had leaked down on her face before she continued.

"One final thing that he told me, before your ill-fated match with Penny, was that you asked him if he believed in destiny, he said that at the time, he honestly didn't have a clue," the sad smile never left her face, "But after you died, he said that he now did, and that she was a total cold hard bitch. Well, if you're seeing this, destiny's probably dying of an hemorrhage right now."

The mystery man and Taiyang chuckled. The current Ruby didn't even know what that word meant.

Pyrrha couldn't help but giggle at that, despite how dark it sounded.

"Ya know, come to think of it. As long as I can remember during our time at Beacon, I saw you, aside from my own team members and Yang, as another amazing sister," she said, making the redhead's eyes widen in surprise.

"You were always kind, patient, smart, and strong. Of course, most of us didn't noticed how lonely you actually felt, until Jaune helped you by cheering you up at the dance. I won't spoil that, by the way." Ruby exclaimed, while giving a wink, that caused Pyrrha to blink, curious what Jaune did to make her happy.

"Also, I just want to say that no matter what other people say about you, remember that you will always be one of my best friends Pyrrha. And also, no matter what destiny may be said, always remember that you will have Jaune, Ren, Nora, and Team RWBY with you, and who will always have your back, no matter what" the scythe wielder said, leaving Pyrrha surprised, as well as touched.

The Elder Ruby sighed as she rubbed her thumb on the pommel of Jaune's sword, "I have to go now. But before I do, here's some advice..."

Everyone then watched as Ruby's face turned deadpan.

"For the love of Oum girl, don't waste your time and just tell the dense idiot you love him and kiss him already...," she drawled out and that got quite the interesting reactions.

Pyrrha blushed, the two men (Qrow and Taiyang) laughed, Ozpin, Glynda and Ironwood facepalmed and the girl (Amber, Pyrrha thought Ruby called her) actually cooed in delight.

Everyone's a romantic it seems.

After the vid ended and everyone calmed down, the one question they were expecting to come out of Pyrrha's mouth, did.

"Did...did she survive?" Pyrrha said suddenly, gaining everyone's attention, "Is she...a-alive?"

Ozpin sighed as he stood up.

"Come with us, Miss Nikos" he said, and with slight hesitation, the Spartan did exactly that.


The elevator door opened, as Ozpin, Ironwood, Glynda, Amber and Taiyang stepped out, with Pyrrha in tow. The mystery man, who had introduced himself as Qrow, had to leave to scout out the coordinates Ruby left for them, as well as look for Cinder. Of course he warned her to be wary of the old coot that's down there with Ruby, which confused the Mistralian champion and ask what he meant by that, but Qrow just grumbled about 'Old Blind Veteran Huntress' and 'Stubborn old mule' before he left.

The group walked out, as Pyrrha looked around her.

"What is this place?" she asked as she looked around the rather large cavernous room.

"This is the vault that built to house the Relic of Choice, it's also serves to protect any Maidens that were gravely injured, during the time they were hunted for their power. We've modernized it over the years, but..." Ozpin guided her to the isolation pod, where the Elder Ruby laid, nigh comatose. Pyrrha gasped, placing her hands over her mouth as she looked at the state of her friend. Her skin was deathly pale, while her breathing was somewhat shallow and erratic, an OT (Oxygen Therapy) mask was secured on her face.

"Oh Oum...," Pyrrha gasped out as she continued to look at Ruby's unconscious form.

"My thoughts exactly, young lady," she heard an elderly voice say, and turned and spotted an old short woman, with weathered tanned skin, wearing a blue and grey dress with a blue cape on her shoulders with brown gloves. The most peculiar thing about her though...were her eyes, as they covered by a set of advanced goggles that glowed blue. "Of course, at first I didn't believe it when that twerp Qrow, just suddenly showed up out of nowhere and tried to get me here immediately...though, he later learned that I was not someone to be ordered around,"

Ozpin and the others all sighed knowing what the old woman meant. When Qrow came back with the said woman before them, he sported a lot of lumps, bruises, and a black eye for his trouble. Pyrrha however, blinked owlishly as she looked at the woman.

"Who...who are you?" she said, and the elder's mechanical 'goggles' actually blinked as she smiled at Pyrrha.

"My name is Maria Calavera...," she introduced herself, "...I'm, apparently, Ruby Rose's mentor regarding her silver eyes. And you are Pyrrha Nikos, am I correct?"

Pyrrha nodded before she turned back to the bed.

"Has...has she reacted to you, or anyone ever since she was here?" she asked, and Maria sighed sadly.

"Her father, and surprisingly me, when we talked to her," she answered, while shaking her head, "But other than that, no...I'm beginning to believe that she losing the will to fight. And if we don't do something soon..."

Maria left it at that, as Pyrrha continued to look at the older version of her friend, before she began to walk toward the bed, her heart wrenching at the condition the tough young woman.

A once happy and vibrant fifteen year old girl...reduced to this. As soon as she reached the side of the bed, she knelt down as she slowly and carefully took Ruby's hand into hers, while placing the other on her fellow redhead's hair.

Ruby seemed to respond, pressing her head further into her hand. Pyrrha sniffed a bit as she began to speak to her.

"Ruby..." Pyrrha began to speak, "It's me...Pyrrha. I don't know if you can hear me, but please know... that I forgive you. I don't have the right to, because there was really nothing to forgive."

She began caressing Ruby's hair, which the said Reaper was now nuzzling into.

"Thank you for doing this. And I'll definitely be a sister you can be proud of." she finished and watched as Ruby slowly made a small smile, prompting Pyrrha to follow suit. She then stood over her and placed a sisterly kiss on her forehead. After she finished and pulled away, her eyes then widened, as Ruby's familiar silver opened, though just enough for her to see.

"...If...this is a dream...don't wake me..." Ruby gasped out, her hand squeezing Pyrrha's, which the Champion returned, "...If...I'm awake...please...don't make me go back to sleep,"

Though she was shocked that he woke up, Pyrrha proceeded to comfort Ruby.

"Shhh, it's okay...it's okay now, Ruby," she whispered gently, while the others looked on, all of them genuinely surprised that Pyrrha managed to wake her up.

Ruby, smile still on her face, fought to keep her eyes open, as tears leaked from her eyes.

"Thank you, Pyrrha...," she said, "...I'm glad...to have such a person like you as a friend...and as a sister."

Pyrrha only returned the smile in response, as she watched Ruby lose the fight to stay awake and pass out.

"You're welcome...," she said, before giving a final stroke of Ruby's now long hair, before standing up, wiping the tears from her eyes. As she walked out of the unit, something caught her eye, making her turn to the table and spotting all the Elder Ruby's belongings.

All of the fragments of her teammates' destroyed personal weapons made Pyrrha wince. Ruby was torturing herself keeping those around.

"I...trust you can keep this to yourself?" Ozpin said, which Pyrrha responded by giving him the 'look'.

"Headmaster, beyond the fact that no one would BELIEVE me, I could be admitted to an asylum if I talked about this." She said firmly, and Ozpin nodded in agreement at that.

It had happened for less, and that was saying a lot.

"Of course," he said, as he watched Pyrrha walk over to the table, looking at everything, before laying her eyes on the improved Crescent Rose, and the modified Crocea Mors beside it. She carefully reached for the sword and picked it.

She then drew the sword out of it's scabbard, and was amazed at the craftsmanship that was done to the guard, and how sharpened the blade looked compared to what she saw her partner was currently using. She then looked at the sheath, and used her polarity to hold it up and deployed it to it's shield configuration.

She winced as she saw the familiar design of her circlet again at the bottom.

Pyrrha did not miss the symbolism.

"She definitely does get better as a huntress," she said, smiling sadly before placing the blade back in it's scabbard, set the shield back to scabbard mode, and placed it back down on the table. "And it took ten years of misery for her to reach it,"

She then felt a hand on her shoulder, as Ozpin gave her a solemn smile.

"Hopefully, with yours and the others help, she will heal from the wounds she suffered," he said, and he meant both physically and mentally. Pyrrha nodded at that, and Ozpin told her she was free to go back to her team and was allowed to come back and visit Ruby at any time, which said Champion planned on doing. She nodded and headed for the elevator before the Headmaster spoke.

"Oh, and before I forget. You may not tell the others what you saw here, until it's the right time to tell them, but you WILL eventually tell Mr. Arc how you feel," Ozpin said, and that caused Pyrrha's face to turn bright red as her hair, before she hurriedly left the vault.

The old man looked to everyone else as they either sighed or face-palmed.

Amber looked to Ozpin. "Was that really necessary?"

Said professor gave a slight smirk, "Yes. I do enjoy romantic relationships...in adventure stories that is. Nothing is as good a motivator as love, wouldn't you agree?"

He lived that life before, when he was much younger, reckless, and idealistic. But constant death, and losing the woman he loved to bitterness and madness...had taken it's toll. However, he'd be damned if another couple suffered the same fate.


Pyrrha was hiding in a corner as she couldn't get what Ozpin said out of her head.

He HAD to pull that out.

Pyrrha wasn't even sure if she could tell Jaune; until now, she'd never been in serious a relationship, before!

Or had friends.

She didn't know if she had it in her to even DO what Elder Ruby said her counterpart did. Right now she felt like hiding in a hole for a good while until she get her act back together again. However, it appears that Elder Ruby was right, yet again, that Destiny was a total cold hard bitch.

Proven true as Jaune Arc peered into her hiding place. Said Champion's eyes widened, cursing mentally that she had been found so fast.

"Hey Pyrrha? Are you ok?" he said in concern.

The redhead blushed as she shook her head vigorously, making the young blonde knight even more worried for his partner, mentor, and friend.

"You wanna talk about it? Maybe I can help," the blonde Arc said, giving a comforting smile.

"N-No. No, I can't." Pyrrha said, and Jaune blinked and looked to question her on what was going with her.

"Pyrrha, what's wrong?" he asked and decided to sit next to her, making the young redhead's heart beat just a little faster than the normal rate.

She knew she had to think of something, and quick.

"...A...A friend of the family, who is like a sister to me is in the hospital," she half lied, not wanting to tell the whole truth.

Jaune's eyes widen at that.

"Is she alright?" Jaune asked worriedly, while Pyrrha shook her head.

"She's...bedridden, and barely responsive. She had an encounter with a Grimm and got hurt... really badly," she said.

Jaune placed his hand on the girl's shoulder, making her eyes widen slightly.

"You've seen her already?" Jaune asked, and it took Pyrrha a moment before she nodded.

"Y-yes," she said, "She was able to respond to me when I touched her. The doctor says it's a touch and go,"

Jaune sighed as he sat down next to Pyrrha, "Well, what can I do to help?" he asked making the Spartan turn to him, blinking, "I may not be a doctor, but, maybe I can help in another way. So, what can I do?"

Pyrrha was surprised by the caring tone in Jaune's voice, and Ruby's words were repeating in her head. Though, of course, she'll wait till the right time, and not rush into it. She smiled slightly as she closed her eyes.

"Just stay here with me for a little bit," she said, and the knight nodded, smiling as the two sat in their corner.


With Team RWBY, they were making their way back to their dorm, after a day of hard school work. Suddenly, the young team leader stopped as she blinked in confusion.

"Hey Rubes," said Yang, concern on her face as he saw her stop, as she placed a hand on her shoulder. "You okay?"

Ruby nodded at her sister's concern, "Yeah...though for some reason, I don't know why, I feel as if I accomplished something...something very important," she said, slightly unsure, but she felt in her gut that this was actually a good unsure, not a bad one.

The other members of Team RWBY blinked at that, just before the Ice Queen spoke up.

"How can you accomplish anything important?" she said, rich girl snootiness coming into play, "The only thing you can accomplish is by being a complete dolt,"

Ruby took offense to that.

"At least I know how to build my weapon, rich girl!," she shot back, causing the Schnee heiress to adopt an offended look, while Yang snickered at her little sister's comeback, while Blake just gave a slight smirk.

The rest of the day went on, as two members of Team RWBY went on to argue through the rest of the day.


Patriot-112: And WUNDERBAR! Another rough chapter that I chipped into perfection. And...Maria has made her first appearance! Though it was short, I have no doubt, that in your minds, it's good to see her in here, and being shown a description of her scrappy behavior that we all know and love! LOL XD!

Please leave a Review, Fave, or follow! See ya next time!
