Ruby couldn't image the intense achiness she feels in her body. But her mind is aware that she is not outside nor at the tower. She could hear beeping sounds and a machine running. Ruby had no idea where she was or wanted to know, but then her friends and sister came to her mind. Worriedness overtook her as she slowly woke up. As she did, Ruby's silver eyes roamed around this unfamiliar room. Ruby recognizes it as a hospital room. And within the room were Patient Monitor and IV fluid attached to her. And she's wearing a hospital gown. Ruby then notices her sister, Yang, asleep next to her. The blonde's head was resting on her arms as she lay on the side of the bed. Then she spotted Blake and Weiss sleeping on the sofa, clearly exhausted from the battle. She looked at the window and saw between the curtains a bit of light, indicating that the sun was up. Ruby wonders how long she was out. And wonders what happened to Volty, Ripper, and Amaryllis. She slowly sits up and looks at her sleeping sister with worry in her eyes.

"Y-Yang?" Ruby spoke in a hoarse voice, clearly exhausted from the battle.

This causes Yang to stir awake, the blonde sits up and blinks away the tiredness from her eyes, adjusting her vision. As she did, she gasped when her sister was finally awake.

"Ruby!" Yang gets up and hugs her little sister in full relief, "You're awake!"

Her commotion woke up both Blake and Weiss, causing the two girls to realize that Ruby is finally awake as they quickly went by her side. "Glad you're okay!" Blake said happily as Yang stopped hugging Ruby.

"Ugh...yeah...what happened?" Ruby asked, can't recall what had just happened.

"We found you, unconscious and got you out of there safe. And brought you here to the hospital." Weiss explains to Ruby.

Ruby understands as she looks down in thought for a split second before she realizes something important as she looks at her team in realization. "Wait! Volty! Is she alright!? And what about Rippy and Ama?!"

Yang holds her sister's shoulders gently, "Ruby! Calm down. Both Ripper and Amaryllis got out of the city just in time with Amber and Kurama. And Voltaria's alright. She's recovering in the other room next to yours."

Ruby sighs in relief, knowing that they were safe, but then Blake asks her a question. "Ruby, do you remember what happened?" Blake suddenly asked her, which confuses her.

"I...I don't know what you mean but...I remember helping Volty go up to the tower...then Cinder showed up. She was so angry at us, and we started fighting. Then she kicked me out the window and I fell. Volty was trying to save me and then...nothing. I guess I passed out after that." Ruby explained the best way she could but stopped when she noticed her teammates giving her a worried look, "What's wrong? Did something happen to the school and Vale when I passed out? We were able to clear out the Grimm?"

"To be honest, sis, we didn't." Yang answered, which shocked Ruby, until she added, "Both you and Voltaria stopped the Grimm invasion."

This now confused Ruby, "Wh-What do you mean?"

"Ruby, you didn't fall unconscious." Weiss answered her team leader carefully, "You and Voltaria...turned into this...this warrior that called herself Crimson Rose."

"Crimson…Rose?" Ruby mutters out in confusion as she slowly recalls a fortune that Voltaria gave to her, "Wait, that sounds like mine and Volty's fortune."

"Could be, I mean, both of your fortunes did say that crimson roses shall bloom within the black thorns of destruction, as a warrior of two souls shall rise to smite evil." Blake said to her leader. "But you guys destroyed all the Grimms and protected Vale."

Ruby tilts her head a bit, "We did? How?"

Weiss got up and pushed the curtains away, "This's how."

Ruby looked outside and gasped at the sight before her. Ruby could see black crystals from the streets and a really big one at the school's tower. And if she looks further, there are black crystals beyond the borders of Vale and Mount Glenn. Ruby stared at this in bewilderment. She couldn't help but think that she and Voltaria did this, together! Creating hundreds maybe thousands of black crystals, repelling any Grimms that dare tried to enter. And what's strange is that there were many Grimms that were turned to stones and were being destroyed by students and huntsmen.

"I...I can't believe it...we did it." Ruby whispers out, feeling a weight in her chest disappearing, "We actually stopped Cinder."

Yang hugs her sister, "You did great, sis." She said to Ruby softly.

Ruby smiles and hugs her back, "No, we all did. Together." Earning smiles from her friends, as they let go, they heard a knock at the door. Turning towards it, they saw Qrow Branwen coming in.

"Hey, kiddo, how ya feelin'?" Qrow asked, coming into the room.

"I'm fine, a little tired, but fine." Ruby answered.

"Good..." Qrow said with a nod before looking at her friends, "Mind giving us some alone time?"

Yang doesn't leave her sister, but agrees by nodding, she looks back to her younger sister and says, "We'll be back, Ruby. We'll tell the others you're awake and get you something to eat."

Ruby smiles in appreciation, "Thanks, Yang."

Giving her sister a one last smile, Yang left with Blake and Weiss to get Ruby something to eat and inform the others. As Blake closes the door, Qrow approaches Ruby's bed, while grabbing the chair that Yang uses and then spins it around to face the bed and sits in it with a significant slouch, crossing one leg over the other.

"So...how are you holding up?" Qrow asked.

"So far, so good, except my head hurts a bit." Ruby confessed.

"That's a relief...do...do you remember what happened?"

"Well, I told the others I was helping Voltaria, and then battling Cinder...and then...then everything went white."

"Anything else?" Qrow asked her.

Ruby shook her head, "No, that's all I could remember before passing out. Yang already told me the details and everything that just happened but...I don't know what happened. And why the Grimms are turned to stone."

Qrow lets out a heavy sigh, deciding it is best for Ruby to know about something important, "The night you met Ozpin, what was the first thing he said to you?"

Ruby was confused by her uncle's words but decides to remember, "I...I don't know. I think it was something about..."

Qrow finished the sentence for her, "Silver eyes. That's an extremely rare trait."

"So?"

Qrow continues his explanation, "You're special, Ruby. And not in the "Daddy loves his special angel" kind of way. You're special the same way your mom was. Remnant's full of legends and stories, some of them true, some made up. But there's one Oz told me from a very long time ago. Back before Huntsmen, before Kingdoms, it was said that those born with silver eyes were destined to lead the life of a warrior. You see, the creatures of Grimm, the most fearsome monsters mankind had ever encountered, were afraid of those silver-eyed warriors. They were the best of the best. It was said that even a single look from one of these fighters could strike a Grimm down. Heh. It's a ridiculous story."

Ruby then realizes that she must've turned every Grimm in the city to stone along with the Wyvern. And with Voltaria's help, she must've given her an extra boost to do so. "But...you think that I might be..."

Qrow lets out a chuckle, "Well, every Grimm is currently frozen, and the giant monster was smashed into pieces, still trying to figure it out. And you're here, safe in bed." He then gets to his feet and walks over to a window, leaning on the sill and staring outside, mostly at the black crystals.

Ruby wasn't sure what to say until realizes something, "Wait, wait, how did you know what Ozpin said to me...the night we met?"

Qrow faces his niece seriously, "All those missions I go on...all the times I'm away in some far-off place...it's been for Ozpin. Something's been set in motion. With everything that has just happened, Ozpin is busier than ever with Ironwood, and I have to help out."

"Then what can I do? If I'm so special, then I can help, right?" Ruby offers, wanting to help.

Qrow walked up to her and placed a hand on her shoulder, "You really wanna help? Get some rest. You're in no condition to go anywhere right now." He told her before patting her head and started heading to the door, "Besides, our enemy's trail leads all the way to Haven. That'd be quite a trip for a pipsqueak like you." He winks at Ruby and opens the door, "Catch ya later, kiddo."

As Qrow leaves the room while closing the door behind him, Ruby just sits alone for a while. Thinking on what to do next. She looks at the window that Qrow looked out of, then stares at herself in a mirror hanging on the wall across from the room. She wanted to know how Voltaria is holding up and where Ripper, Amaryllis, Amber, and Kurama are? Her thoughts were interrupted by the sounds of running feet coming from the door. And in a few seconds, Team JNPR, and the rest of team WAVE along with Zwei burst into the room, filled with relief at the sight of Ruby finally waking up.

"Ruby! You're okay!" Jaune said in relief.

"Thank goodness." Pyrrha said, also relieved by this.

"Ye'r alright, Ruby?" Wade asked Ruby.

"I'm all good." Ruby answered before laughing when Zwei jumps in her arms and licks her face, "I'm just happy that you guys are all safe."

"Yeah, it was amazing that we did it." Jaune said in relief.

Nora nodded in agreement, "Yeah! And we show those Grimms a thing or two not to mess with us!" She exclaims happily while Ren just nodded his head.

Ruby smiles at them before asking, "How's everything?"

"Everything is fine, the people are slowly returning after the Grimm were all destroyed, but the weirdest thing is those black crystals are repelling or destroying Grimms." Evo said to Ruby, "They're like the ones in Mineral Town, but these crystals are bigger and stronger, and stretched beyond the borders of the kingdom and Mount Glenn! It's amazing!"

"It is amazing." Glynda said, coming into the room with the rest of Team RWBY. Yang was carrying a tray of delicious food and drinks for Ruby. "How are you feeling, Ruby?"

"Doing fine, although I will feel a lot better if I know what happened to Volty." Ruby said, munching down the food after Yang gave it to her. "Yang said that's alright but...is she?"

Wade sighs a bit and rubs the back of his neck, "To be honest with ya, Ruby. We're not sure. Doc said that V's gonna be fine, but her recovery process might take a while."

Ruby holds her spoon tightly, worried about Voltaria, wondering how she was doing. "What about the others? Are they still here?" She asked, referring to the entities.

"We're not sure." Glynda said to Ruby, "We lost contact with them after we rescued you and Voltaria from the rubble."

"I see..." Ruby answered softly. "What about the city? Is it being rebuilt?"

"Actually, it already did." AJ answered to Ruby, who was confused, "After...after you and Voltaria did."

"What do you mean?" Ruby asked in confusion, earning concern looks from her friends.

"Ruby...you might want to brace yourself." Wade said to her, which she nodded, as the cowboy explained to her what happened.

As it turns out, they learned that both Ruby and Voltaria fused themselves and formed into this warrior named Crimson Rose. She created all those black crystals that surrounded the Kingdom of Vale and Mount Glenn, protecting it against Grimm. But that's not all, after they met up with Crimson Rose, she uses the vines to restore all the broken buildings, streets, and homes back to normal, repairing any damages along the way. Making it look like nothing happened. And it was done, a vine returned Voltaria's mask to Crimson Rose and when she put it on, she unfused, revealing both Ruby and Voltaria safe and unharmed. Voltaria still wore her mask in the process. But soon they both fell unconscious, due to the exhaustion they received. Luckily, the vines with no thorns caught them and gently gave the girls back to Wade and Yang, who took the girls to the hospital that was still standing and had refugees inside. There, they were both treated and were out since yesterday.

"Yesterday!? I've been out since yesterday?!" Ruby chokes out.

"Yeah, we were worried that you haven't woken up yet like V." Wade confessed with a worried tone.

Ruby became worried about Voltaria, "Can I see her?" She asked hopefully, wanting to check on her.

At first, they didn't since Ruby needs to recover, but the silver-eyed girl needs to see her friend. Without a choice, they agreed, they got her a wheelchair and took her to Voltaria's room. Upon arrival, she saw Voltaria on the bed, wearing a hospital gown as well, monitors and IV fluid attached to her along with an oxygen mask. Speaking of masks, Voltaria's was still on, covering her eyes. The silk fabric was gone, allowing the oxygen mask to place on her mouth.

"Volty..." Ruby whispers out, looking at her friend's condition. Yang gently pushes Ruby's wheelchair at the side of Voltaria's bed, allowing Ruby to hold her friend's hand. "We did it, we stopped the destruction of Vale, we saved everyone." She said to Voltaria's unconscious state softly but received no response. "Wake up soon, Volty."

Again, Voltaria did not respond, only releasing each breath she took as she slept. Yang placed an assuring hand on Ruby's shoulder, causing Ruby to look at Yang, "Come on, sis, let her rest. She'll wake up soon."

Ruby nodded her head in response as Yang was going to push her out of the room with the others, Ren spotted something strange on Voltaria's right arm. He could've sworn that he saw black dragon mark that wraps around her arm, almost looking like a tattoo. But when he blinked, it vanished, causing Ren to be suspicious by this before following the others out of the room.

"By the way, what's gonna happen to Beacon?" Ruby asked Glynda.

Glynda lets out a sigh, knowing very well the events that had just happened, "For now, it's inactive until further repairs, all students will return back to their homes for the time being."

"Oh...is it that bad?" Ruby asked in concern.

"It's just for a while, Ruby. Everything will be repaired in no time considering that you and Voltaria have fixed all the areas. We still need to fix something inside the buildings." Glynda replied, earning a sheepish smile from Ruby but soon vanished when she realized something.

"But...but Volty has no place to call home...remember? She lives by traveling to different places, never settling." Ruby said to the group, who realizes as well.

"Yeah, where will Voltaria stay?" Blake asked the others in worry.

"Well, considering that I am her guardian, I suppose she could live with me until classes are able to resume." Glynda said, basically offering a home for Voltaria.

The students looked at her surprise, they guessed she warmed up to Voltaria and saw her as own. "That's great to hear, Professor Goodwitch." Ruby said with a smile. As they made their way to the lobby, they were greeted by an overexcited Penny.

"RUBY!" Penny exclaims happily, running up to Ruby, stopping a few feet from her as she smiles widely, "It's good to see you okay!"

"You too, Penny! I was worried that something might have happened to you and the others." Ruby said to her friends.

"Oh, we're okay! Better even! We did not get tired when facing all those Grimms. Thanks to the entity of Voltaria's...by the way, where is he? I want to properly thank him." Penny said cheerfully, referring to Hannibal.

"We don't know." Ruby said to her friend. "He disappeared with the others; we don't know when they'll come back."

"Well, hopefully, soon, the others will want to thank them for the help." Penny said happily.

"We'll tell them soon but have told anyone about..." Ruby trails off as she worries that Penny and the others told anyone about the entities.

Penny shook her head, "Oh, no, we didn't say a word about them. I didn't even tell General Ironwood about it. Because if we did, the one named Wraith threatened us that he would mess with our heads, permanently." She said to the group.

"Of course, he did." Weiss sighs in annoyance, knowing that Wraith could do that.

"Anyways, hope you get better! I will have to return to my group and assist, bye!"

"Bye, Penny." The students waved at Penny as she left.

"Well, I guess everything's okay now." Evo said.

"Yeah, for how long." Blake asked worriedly, "Even though Adam and Cinder are gone, I fear that the war is not over."

"Yeah, we still have to face an immortal woman who wants to destroy the entire race!" Nora said quietly to the last part.

"We know, Nora, we need to figure out how to end this conflict once and for all." Wade said.

Ruby lowers her head a bit, "I wish Volty could wake up soon, we need her help more than ever."

"Here, here." Evo said in agreement.

As they walk, Ruby notices outside through the window to see some scientists were observing the crystals at the ground, trying to figure out the origin and its purpose. Ruby worries about this, if they learned that it was Voltaria who did this, then they surely will be asking questions.

"Ruby? What's wrong?" Yang asked her little sister, seeing her worried expression.

"It's just...I'm worried about Volty. She isn't waking up and...and I'm worried that someone would try and harm in her sleep." Ruby said to her friends.

"Don't worry, Ruby, we'll keep guard." Wade assures her.

"Yeah, and V's gonna pull through. You'll see." Yang assures her sister once more.

"I hope so, but I have a bad feeling something's wrong with Voltaria." Ruby said with a worried tone. "Like...like if she was trapped."

"Ruby, don't think so much, she's gonna be fine." AJ assures her kindly.

But Ruby still felt something was wrong.

---

For the next two days, Ruby stayed in the hospital, still recovering from the event that transpired, as well as doing some physical therapy. Everyone was also recovering in different rooms of the hospital. She heard from Glynda that many people are returning soon after they fixed everything. Ruby felt relief knowing that the people are returning but still worries how they are going to adjust after the whole event. Voltaria literally exposing the true evil behind this. And what she heard was that there were many people who wanted answers and volunteers who wished to help, but Ozpin and Ironwood refused to. Well, Ozpin does, Ironwood wanted many volunteers to help but not give too much information. They want to keep things confidential. However, they were curious about the black crystals. They were giving out powerful readings that repelled all Grimm that were trying to get in, not even the subterranean Grimms couldn't even enter. The other Kingdoms and villages wanted to know how Vale has such a powerful defense and once more, their borders have expanded tenfold!

And to be honest, they don't even know either. They have yet to understand it. But Turquoise Jewel, one of AJ's older sisters, knows about these crystals and tells everyone how it is used and what it can do. Many wanted to know if they could piece, but Turquoise informs them that they have their own hivemind and defense mechanism that prevents them from getting any sample. The only sample they have is a small piece that Voltaria found (actually she made the small one) and was the only thing they have. And many buyers wanted that small piece, thinking that they could manufacture it and make more. However, Turquoise is still researching it and has yet to know if they can create artificial ones.

Ruby knows that they couldn't since Voltaria made them with her own energy and can only be done by her and her alone. But they can't know about it because she promises to keep it a secret for Voltaria, because they are BGF. And she'll not let anyone harm her. And yet, Ruby wonders if Voltaria was okay, she hasn't woken up yet from her coma. She wishes she could just talk to her, maybe telepathically like she did with her and others. Ruby prayed that Voltaria would wake up soon, so she can take her to Patch where she can feel safe. Who knows? Maybe Ripper and Amaryllis could live with them as well.

"I hope you get well soon, Volty." Ruby whispers out as she lies down on her bed, "So, we can take you somewhere far and safe, I promise."

Hoping and praying for the best, Ruby closes her eyes and enters a dreamless sleep.

However, things took a turn when she fell asleep.

---

Ruby opens her eyes once more and lets out a gasp of shock. Finding herself no longer in the room, a spiritual place that can only be found in a fairy tale. She was in a huge world that is covered by stars. She was standing on a golden path that glittered among the stars. Along with doors of different shapes and colors, and colorful orbs floating about. Ruby awed at it as she was thinking that she was in some kind of dream, which it is. As it turns out, Ruby has entered a place where things are not what they seem, but as you make them seem, where you can dream to your heart's content. As Ruby explored this amazing place, she spotted a small red flaming with two yellow dots as eyes, flickering alone in the air. Curious, Ruby went towards it and observed it.

"Wow..." Ruby whispers, looking at the small flame. When she was about to poke it, it shyly backs away, creating a small hiccup sound, "Whoa! Hey, there, don't be shy, I'm not going to hurt you." Ruby assures the little fire.

The little fire was small, but she could tell that it was curious about her, and she was as well. She opens her hands out and the little flame hovers above them. As it did, Ruby felt the warmth of the flame, making her smile, "You're like a little heartbeat."

The little flame began flying around Ruby, making her laugh, "Aw! Well, aren't you playful, little guy?" Ruby cooed, but stopped when the flame suddenly turned bright red, clearly showing she wasn't happy about what she said, "Or...little girl?"

The flame seems satisfied by this and flutters around, making Ruby smile before realizing something, "Do you know where I am?"

The little flame created some sound that resembled the sound of a small bell. And the strangest thing was, Ruby could understand her, "The...dream realm? How did I even get here?"

The little flame just shook herself, indicating that she doesn't know either. "Well, I better find my way out of here or find some way to communicate with my friends...do you know how umm...sorry, I didn't get your name." The flame made more bell chimes, which Ruby understood, "Flare? That's a cute name!"

Flare made happy noises, appreciating her compliment, before instructing her on what to do, "Hold out my hand and close my eyes? How will that work?" Ruby asked, Flare made more chiming bell sounds, telling Ruby to trust her. "All right, if you say so."

She holds her hand out and closes her eyes, and doing so, Flare hovers above her hands and soon glows.

---

Silver eyes opened, and Ruby found herself out of her bed and still in her hospital room. But she notices something...off. She was standing in front of the bed, and she saw her body laying on the bed. Ruby was shocked and horrified, thinking that she was dead. But to her surprise, she notices the monitor was beeping regularly, indicating that she's still alive. But what's shocking is that she was standing there and looked like some sort of phantom or better yet, a ghost. As Ruby looked at herself, she heard a nurse coming in, she panics, thinking that the nurse would scream to a ghost Ruby, but she didn't. Instead, the nurse just walked through her like she was nothing, but she did shiver at the sudden cold, before tending Ruby's unconscious body.

"Flare...what just happened?" Ruby asked the small flame, who floats beside her and is also unseen by the nurse. Flare made bell sounds, explaining to her what she is. "An astral project? You mean, I can see them, but they can't see me...I'm like a ghost but I'm not dead, right?" Flare nodded, indicating that she is right, "Does that mean I can possess people too? Since I'm like a ghost or spirit?"

Again, Flare nodded, making Ruby excited, "Oooh! That's so cool! I wanna-wait! No! Focus, Ruby! You have to find your friends first!" Ruby ran straight to the door and as she was about to open the door, she went through it and fell to the ground, "OOPH!"

Flare went through the door and watched as Ruby got up from the floor, "Right, forgot I can walk through walls now." Ruby mutters to herself as she walks or better yet floats from the ground, "Okay, this is cool." Ruby grins as she and Flare float through the halls off the hospital, searching for her friends.

Ruby then spotted Tyson, Willy, Nash, and Lars, walking through the hall and towards the cafeteria to grab a bite. But when Ruby accidentally went through Nash, he suddenly stopped and shivered at the sudden chill. Ruby flinched as she kept forgetting that she might be cold due to her being apparition towards them.

"Damn! Why did it suddenly get cold?!" Nash shivered, blowing his hands, rubbing them together to keep himself warm.

"Nash, it's 68 degrees Fahrenheit, there is no way it suddenly became cold." Willy said to his brother.

"Maybe there was an open window, and he felt a draft?" Lars suggested it to his older brother.

"I highly doubt it, there's no window on this floor. So, it is not possible for a breeze to come in." Willy stated the obvious.

"The hell it was, it almost gave me goosebumps." Nash said, shaking a bit.

"Come on, let's get some hot cocoa from the cafeteria before heading to our room to prepare, our flight to Mistral will leave tomorrow morning." Tyson informs his brothers.

"Technically, our flight will leave at exactly 8 am sharp while the flight to Atlas and Shade will leave at 10 am." Willy informs correctly.

"Huh, I guess the flight to Patch is earlier than theirs since it leaves at seven in the morning." Ruby said to Flare, indicating about her flight, "Enough of that! I have to find my...friends..."

Ruby trailed off when she saw both Ozpin and Ironwood coming out from the elevator and headed towards the direction where Voltaria is. Curious and suspicious, Ruby and Flare follow them through the hall and towards Voltaria's room. When the male adults entered and closed the door, Ruby and Flare went through it with ease, watching as the two male leaders stared at Voltaria's unconscious state. Ruby was surprised as she watched with wide eyes as both men discussed the situation.

"Ozpin, she knew this whole time..." Ironwood said to Ozpin in a serious tone.

"Indeed...and apparently, she's been keeping secrets herself...saving everyone without us even knowing." Ozpin said in agreement, yet worried about how many secrets Voltaria was hiding. "What else is she keeping from us?"

"That I want to know as well." Ironwood said, narrowing his eyes at the sleeping Voltaria, "She exposed the truth to the whole world and now everyone knows what we are dealing with."

"I am aware of that as well, general." Ozpin said with a sigh, "I feel as if she has more secrets than I have."

"If she does, then she is not safe here." Ironwood said, eyeing towards Voltaria, "Who knows what else she is hiding from us. For all we know, she might even know when Salem would strike."

"Let's not get ahead of ourselves, general. She may have known about this, but we can't just assume-"

"Ozpin, you saw everything, what she did and what she can do! She just prevented a massive Grimm invasion and stopped the culprits! We're not even sure who's side she's really on. Or the fact that she may have the solution to end this war against Salem." Ironwood said to Ozpin, trying to convince him, "We can't lose this opportunity, Ozpin, this will be our last stand against her."

Ruby's eyes widened even more, feeling dread and worry coming from her stomach, like something bad was going to happen. She watches as Ozpin lets out a sigh and shakes his head, as if he wanted to disagree with him, but knew very well that he was somewhat right.

"And what do you suppose that we suggest we do, generally? Lock her away? Letting her lose her trust to humanity and Faunus kind?" Ozpin questions him.

"The exact opposite, actually." Ironwood said as he suggested an alternative that shocked and terrified Ruby, "We will transfer her to Atlas's top safe house. There, she will recover properly as well as being safely secured and far from Salem's reach."

"No..." Ruby whispers out, and couldn't believe what she was hearing.

Ozpin sighs again as he looks at Voltaria with a sympathetic look. "I had wished for Voltaria to have a better chance in life, to live in peace with herself and humanity. Professor Goodwitch already plans to take Voltaria into her home."

"She won't know about this because we will take Voltaria to Atlas on tomorrow's next flight." Ironwood said to Ozpin, shocking Ruby as she recalls from Willy, that the flight to Atlas would leave at ten. "I already have permission from the councils, agreeing with me that Voltaria Eclipse must stay in Atlas for her and the city's safety."

"Then what about her teammates? And her friends? They will worry about her." Ozpin said to him.

"The less they know the better, it's best for them to stay focused on their training rather than Voltaria, she will be safe and protected from any known threat as Atlas is a fortified kingdom."

""You can't do this to her!" Ruby yelled out, even though they cannot hear her, she can't allow this. She can't allow them to take Voltaria away, "She deserves better!"

Ruby watches helplessly as Ozpin sighs, knowing that he too has to agree with this, for who knows when Salem will strike. Yet, part of him doesn't want this, "I do not wish to lose Voltaria's trust again, General Ironwood, she has to choose her own decisions." Ozpin said to the general.

"I'm sorry, Ozpin, but you have no other choice. The council already decided this."

"No...no!" Ruby yelled, looking at them in shock.

"When she recovers and awakes, she will be trained beyond her limit and tell us everything that she knows and what secrets that she was keeping from us." Ironwood said seriously before looking at Ozpin, "I will make sure that she will have all the requirements she needs in her stay."

"You can't keep her there forever, General Ironwood. Voltaria has a life now, friends that care for her, they have the right to know." Ozpin reminds the General of Atlas about Voltaria's friends.

"As I said before, Ozpin, the less they know the better, you can inform them that Ms. Eclipse has been transferred to Atlas as a new student, and they will be having a new team member soon." Ironwood said to Ozpin, "They will understand and accept it."

"NO, IT'S NOT! YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT VOLTY'S BEEN THROUGH!" Ruby exclaimed in anger.

Suddenly, red aura flame escaped through her eyes, and in the process. Creating powerful gusts of winds that came from the window, opening it in the process and shocking both the adults. Flare hides behind Ruby as she feels the powerful wind blowing through the window. Voltaria's body stayed motionless as the strong winds continued blowing.

"WHAT IS GOING ON?!" Ironwood exclaimed, feeling the powerful winds coming through the window.

Realizing what was happening, Ruby gasped in shock, the flame in her eyes vanished in an instant along with the wind, and the window closed by itself. The two men recovered by this but were in shock at what they just witnessed. Ruby knew something was up as she quickly leaves the room and searches for her friends, leaving the shocked men to wonder what they just witnessed.

"Gotta find Yang! Gotta find Yang! Gotta find Yang!" Ruby repeated in a panic, searching for her sister and friends. Flare rested in her hood as Ruby flew through the hall and searched for them. "Ooo, where are they?!"

Just as she was at the lower floor, she spotted Jaune walking down the hall and towards a room in the waiting area. "Jaune!" Ruby exclaims happily, calling out to him, but she didn't hear her. Slapping herself in realization, she forgot that in this astral projection form, no one can see or hear her. "I gotta get his attention and get the others, fast!"

Ruby zooms in the room and sees, not just Jaune, but the others as well, even Glynda, much to Ruby's relief. They were talking about Voltaria's condition and their flights tomorrow. One of AJ's older sisters, Agate, who is a pilot, is going to pick her up. She was worried about her sister and was coming to get her.

"Are you sure you don't need anything when Voltaria lives with you?" Yang asked Glynda.

"No need, I will prepare everything before she wakes up." Glynda assures them.

"All right, but if you need anything, just give us a holler." Wade assures the professor.

"Much appreciated."

"Guys! It's an emergency! Volty's in trouble!" Ruby said to them. But they didn't hear her. Ruby panics, she needs to get their attention. She then remembers that since she's like a ghost, maybe she can possess someone like how Voltaria's entities do. Looking over to Jaune, who handed his teammates some cocoa, Ruby had an idea and is regretting it as she does not want to possess Jaune because it is wrong and is scared that she might hurt her friend. But she needs to warn them.

"Sorry, Jaune, but this is an emergency!" Ruby quickly zooms forward and possesses Jaune's body, causing the male teen to drop his tray and his eyes widen, which startled everyone in the process.

"Jaune? What's wrong?" Pyrrha asked her leader in concern.

"Dude! Are you okay?!" Evo asked, coming over to him along with the others.

As they came over to Jaune, the male's eyes suddenly turned silver, which surprised them in the process. Jaune blinks for a bit before he lifts his hands up and flecks them a bit, "Whoa! It worked!" Jaune said happily, he sounded like...

"Ruby? Is...is that you?" Yang was shocked when she heard her sister's voice.

'Jaune' smiled and nodded, "Yeah! It is me!"

"But...but how?! How did you...you know...do...that?!" Wade exclaims, gesturing to Jaune's body.

"It's kind of a long story, but when I went to sleep, I entered this dream realm, I met a small flame Flare, and learned how to Astral Project myself out of my body, but that's not important right now! Right now, Volty's in danger!"

"What?! What's wrong?" Blake asked in concern.

"It's General Ironwood, he wants to take Volty to Atlas."

"WHAT?!" The teens and Glynda exclaimed in shock and anger. Well, Glynda was the angry one, her eyes were burning with rage when Ruby said that.

"What was he thinking!? And did Professor Ozpin agree to this?!" Glynda asked Ruby, who is possessing Jaune's body.

"Professor Ozpin didn't have a choice." Ruby said in a saddened tone , "It was the Council's decision, they think that Volty was too dangerous, and they agreed that she has to transfer to Atlas with General Ironwood for everyone's safety."

"But V's our teammate!" Wade exclaimed, "He has no right to do so?!"

"Well, he can since the council gave him permission. Heck, he even told Professor Ozpin to find a replacement for your missing team member." Ruby said to the rest of Team WAVE.

"No way, Voltaria is not going to be replaced and taken away from us." AJ said with determination and sisterly instincts kicked in, "We have to get her out of Vale and far from the council and General Ironwood!"

"I'm with AJ with this!" Yang said in agreement. "V helped us and now it's our turn to help her."

"But we can't take her out of her bed! She's still recovering and she's not waking up!" Weiss reminded them, "The doctors will find out that we took her out and will probably contact General Ironwood!"

"She's right, I bet General Ironwood already informed them that he's taken charge as V's new guardian." Wade said.

"Is there a way to wake her up?" Nora asked Ruby in Jaune's body.

"I don't know, I just...hold on..." Ruby suddenly said.

"...What's wrong?" Yang asked her sister.

"It's Flare, she's a small fire that I met in the dream realm, she is telling me something...uh-huh...mmm-hmm...really?! That's great!"

"Ruby, what's your imaginary friend saying?" Wade asked.

"First off, she's real, second, you can't see her because she's an astral projection form, and third. She just says we have a way to wake Volty up!" Ruby said excitingly.

"Really?! How?" Pyrrha asked, hoping to save Voltaria before it is too late.

"Okay, Flare said that she'll make a connection link for all of us to enter the dream realm and to Volty's dream. There, we can find her and wake her up before tomorrow morning." Ruby explains to them.

"That's great! Is there a way to get in?" Wade asked.

"There is, we have to fall asleep, and Flare will do the rest." Ruby instructed. Everyone agreed and quickly got to their seats, along with Jaune's body, who sat next to Pyrrha. "Okay, guys, get ready, it's time to sleep."

Everyone nodded and closed their eyes, unaware that Flare was fluttering above them, creating a small glitter mist for them to fall asleep and gain access to the dream realm.

---

Ruby opens her eyes once more to find herself in the Dream Realm with Flare. And this time, they're not alone, her friends and Glynda were there, amazed by this. But Jaune was confused wondering how they got here. Pyrrha promises to explain everything but right now, they have to find Voltaria's dream. Luckily, Flare knows where it is and leads to it. Once they find Voltaria's door, they notice it looking...broken down. Unlike the beautiful and colorful doors that they passed, her name was broken, they could only see the word V. It was almost in shambles, like she had never dreamed before.

"Is this...Voltaria's door?" Glynda asked out softly.

Flare, which still surprised everyone, made small bell sounds, which Ruby translated since she's the only one who can understand her. "Flare said that Volty stopped dreaming many years ago, it's always lifeless and empty, she always sees it falling apart each night."

"Is it...is it safe to come in?" Jaune asked, fearing what was inside.

Flare made sounds and Ruby translated. "She said it can hold, but we can't be separated when we enter, otherwise, we will get devoured in her mindscape and will be trapped for all eternity!"

"What?! That could happen to us?" Weiss exclaims in shock.

"As long as we stay with Flare, we'll be okay, but we have to hurry! We don't know if Ironwood is going to take Volty's out of her room!"

Knowing that it could happen, everyone agrees to this without second thoughts, they need to act fast before it is too late. They all each held each other's hands, looking at each other with determination and then to the door. Ruby gave Flare a go signal as the flame emits a bright light, causing the door to slightly glow before slowly opening and then the group suddenly entered inside.

And once they were inside Voltaria's dream, they found themselves in a land of darkness and Flare is their only source of light. They still held each other's hands as they followed Flare through the dark dream. Jaune was getting scared, never in his life could he find himself in a place like this, and the others agree to this.

"Does Flare know where she is going?" Yang asked her sister in front.

"Yeah, Flare told me that she's a...dream flame. She roams around the dream realm with others like her, watching and guiding people in their dreams." Ruby explained.

"That explains her knowing about this place." Wade said, "But how can you understand her?"

"I don't know, maybe I made a connection with her?" Ruby suggested, "I don't even know how I even-" She suddenly was cut off when she and the others heard someone singing, and it sounded like a woman.

Come Little Children
I'll take thee away
Into a Land of Enchantment
Come Little Children
The time's come to play
Here in my Garden of Shadows...

"It's that song again." Pyrrha whispers out in surprise.

"Yeah...but who's singing it?" Weiss asked, clearly freaked out to hear that song again.

"It can't be..." Ren whispers out, getting everyone's attention.

"Ren? Ren, what's wrong?" Jaune asked his teammate in concern.

"It is, Ren. It's her voice." Nora said in shock.

"Ren, Nora, what are you talking...about..." Wade trails off when they notice the dark void illuminated itself, revealing a living room that belongs to Mallow Florez, Team WAVE and Glynda stayed in her home as guests when they were assisting AJ's sister about the crystal protecting their town. But instead of Mallow in the house, there was a woman with long black hair with white streaks in front, fair skin, and sapphire blue eyes. She was sitting on a rocking chair near the fireplace, with the fire on, singing the lullaby as she held a bundle in her arms. But what's more shocking is that they saw Ren and Nora as kids, sitting on a carpet, listening to the song with smiles on their faces.

"Ugh...why is Ren and Nora there?" Weiss asked, pointing at the scene.

Wade, Evo, AJ, Glynda, and Team JNPR know the reason, especially Ruby. "Because...that's where both Ren and Nora were being cared for after they lost their homes by Grimm attacks." Wade said as he recalled the story that both Ren and Nora shared to them, which shocked Team RWBY, "That woman is their caretaker, she took them when they were lost."

"Pandora Twilight." Pyrrha whispers the name of the woman in shock as she looks at Ren, "Isn't she?"

Ren nodded his head sadly, holding back the tears in his eyes, "Yes...and that baby she's holding...that's Virgo, her daughter." He spoke softly, his voice cracking with emotion. Nora comforts her by holding his hand tightly while holding back the tears as well. They both love and adore Pandora and Virgo, they were like family to them, along with Pandora's husband, Toren. Before his death, he treats them as if they were his own, teaching them some fighting techniques and playing with them when he had the time until his untimely death.

"Pandora raises us like if we were her own...giving us comfort and love." Nora whispers sadly as they watch the scene change to reveal little Virgo, five years old, playing with her mother in the forest, laughing happily.

"She and her husband, Toren, took us in...became family with Virgo...Toren was actually huntsman in secret and works at the Schnee's Dust's mines...he sacrifices his life to save others...and then...Pandora was killed when bandits invade the town...she died trying to protect Virgo..." Ren explains in a choking tone.

Everyone felt great sympathy towards the two friends, knowing that they were very close to their caretaker. Just then, Wade notices something off, like he was wondering...why is Voltaria dreaming about this. AJ notices this and looks at her boyfriend.

"Wade...what's wrong?" AJ asked in concern.

Wade looks at her and then everyone else, "Just thinking...why is V dreaming about this? How could she know what Pandora looks like? She wasn't even there with Ren and Nora unless...unless she's..."

"...Unless she's actually Virgo Twilight..." Ruby said softly with a sad voice, catching off guard.

"What?" Glynda whispers out in shock along with the others, especially Ren and Nora, "Ruby...do you know about this?"

Ruby nodded her head, tears were forming in her eyes, "I promise Volty not to tell anyone but...you guys need to know this...she told me everything...about her past, her family, and what happened to her." Ruby explained, holding Yang's and Blake's hands, "The rumors about her being experimented on or raised by Grimms, she was born in a nice town with both human parents with love and care. But soon changed when her mother was killed by a bandit...right in front of her...and when she activated her semblance."

Hearing this, Jaune's eyes widen in shock as he recalls something that Voltaria told him when she was tutoring him. "Wait...Voltaria mentioned this to me when I was still training with her." Jaune said to the group. "She told how she activated her semblance when she witnessed at a very young age that she felt sadness, shock, pain, fear, and then...were replaced by vengeance."

"So...when she saw her mother being killed...she activated her semblance." Glynda said in shock.

"Why didn't you tell us sooner, Ruby?" Ren asked, sounding demanding. "She would've come to us sooner and we would've taken care of her when she was young!"

"She was trying to protect you and Nora!" Ruby suddenly exclaimed, shocking and startling everyone, "When Volty told me about this, she said that not only did she activate her semblance but also summoned a Grimm, the Indominus Grimm Rex."

"That must be the Grimm who saved the town's people all those years ago." Glynda said. "She was the one who saved her people."

"And then went into hiding after that," Ruby continues sadly. "She worries that she will endanger them because of her gift...and what she can do. She can't return home or go to Ren and Nora because there were people after her. Wanting to know how she can control Grimm or worse...Salem will find out and harm you guys."

"...So, that's why she's always on the run and hiding." Glynda said in shock, finding out the truth of Voltaria.

"Yeah...she...she did it...to protect them." Blake said in shock.

Just then, the scene changed, revealing little Virgo was sleeping. Ren and Nora's eyes soften at the sight, before they heard loud screams, explosions, and gunshots from outside, which startles them and little Virgo, who became scared and hugs her stuff cat, Mr. Shade.

"What's happening?!" Weiss asked in panic at the scene before them.

"I think...I think this when the town was attacked." Wade said in shock.

"And the day Panny died." Nora said, voice cracking.

They watched as Pandora burst into the room, panicked, and worried in her eyes, as she looked at her terrified daughter, "Virgo!"

"Mommy! What's happening?!" Little Virgo asked in fear as her mother picked her up.

"Shh! It's okay, Sweetie, mommy's here!" Pandora hushed her daughter, "We're going to leave and run as fast as we can, okay? Just stay close to me."

Little Virgo nodded as she hugged her mother and clutching Mr. Shade in her hand. Pandora quickly runs down the stairs and was about to run to the back when two bandits burst into the house. Virgo screamed as the bandits pointed their guns at them, when Pandora attempted to escape, they fired, forcing Pandora to toss little Virgo away and took the hit of multiple rounds of bullets, before falling to the ground, bleeding from her injuries. The others could only watch helplessly as little Virgo cried to her mother and crawled to her, tears streaming down her eyes as she clutched Mr. Shade.

"Mommy?! Mommy!? Wake up!" Pandora did not respond as she shakingly lifted her bloody hand with all strength and caressed her face gently. Blood and tears fall on Pandora's eyes as blood falls on her mouth.

"Virgo...it's...it's gonna be okay...don't be afraid...I'm always here...I'm always here..."

With the last of her strength, Pandora's hand falls limp on to the floor, as Pandora remains lifeless on the ground. Little Virgo cries as she tries to wake her mother, but to no avail. She didn't bother listen to the bandits talking about taking her to slavery. But that doesn't matter to her because she just lost her mother, killed by those bandits. Anger and vengeance fueled her little mind, removing all remaining innocence and emotions from her mind, as her body began to change. Her sclera turned black, her blue eyes glowed, and her pupils turned into slits. Her skin turned pale white and her teeth turned to fangs. And without any warning, little Virgo lets out a demonic scream that shatters all windows, glasses, and mirrors. And in the process, activating black/white flaming auras in her eyes, shocking them in the process. The bandits covered their ears, trying to block out the scream, but failed to see that Voltaira summoned her entities, who took her revenge by killing the bandits. Followed by Gladstone the Indominus Grimm Rex, who killed all the bandits that were trying to take the town's people to slavery. But there was no match against the Indominus Grimm Rex. Everyone watched in shock as little Virgo stopped screaming and now cries helplessly at her lifeless mother's body, ignoring the entities behind her.

"Mommy...mommy...come back to me..." Little Virgo cries out, but no response, which causes Virgo to let loose a cry that freezes the room, "DON'T LEAVE ME LIKE DADDY!"

As she continued to cry, the room around her started to turn into ice, freezing everything in its path, including the bodies of her mother and the bandits. Just then, Kurama enters the house, his katana stained with blood, fighting his way through the bandits, and is on his way to save little Virgo. Upon seeing her crying over her mother's lifeless body as the room around her started to freeze. Without wasting time, Kurama rushed in, picking up the crying child, before carrying her out of the house, running to the forest with the entities following her. Leaving behind her home, her mother, and Mr. Shade in the process. While the Indominus Grimm Rex wreaks havoc amongst the bandits, killing them, before leaving. And after it leaves, they see little Virgo's eyes continue to emit a flaming aura as tears fall onto the ground as she screams in agony of the death of her mother. And upon doing so, the earth started to shake, and then black crystals erupted from the ground, surrounding the entire town with the protective barrier, to keep them safe from any Grimm that would dare enter their town.

And soon, the scene vanished, leaving everyone stunned and shocked by this.

Everyone couldn't believe what they just saw, especially Glynda. They learned that causing Voltaria her pain and suffering, was the loss of her mother. Because of those bandits, she became the person she is. She was no longer the sweet innocent child she was, she became the cold hearted warrior that everyone fears.

"That was...that was V's past?" Wade asked in shock and horror.

"Yeah...she has become who she is. After her mother died, Volty trained herself to the limits...and you know the rest." Ruby explains sadly to them.

"But still...she shouldn't suffer like this." Weiss said, feeling guilty as felt responsible for Voltaria's father's death, even if it was caused by an accident in the mines.

"Indeed." Regina's voice came.

They all turned around and gasped to see a beautiful woman with an elegant violet dress with golden accessories. She has fair skin, amethyst eyes, and black hair. With her are two others. One is a male Faunus. He's a tall, muscular male Faunus with dragon-like features, amber eyes, tan skin, black spiky-slick hair with golden-red streaks on the edge. Has two long horns on both sides of his head and smaller ones on the bottom. Black-gold scales could be seen and had sharp claws. He wore black pants with armor boots, metal sleeve shoulder armor on his right, his chest exposed to revealing tattoos of dragons, and a single metal shoulder armor on his left. Plus a dragon tail with a trident on the end. Beside him, was a human girl. She's slender and the same age as the teens, she has long dark brown hair that is tied, hazel green eyes, wearing attire like a huntsman. The three strangers stood a few feet from the group. Staring at them, who also stared back at the strangers.

However, when Ruby heard the woman speak, she instantly recognized her voice as she stared at her with wide eyes. "R-Regina? Is that you?"

Regina nodded her head, "It is indeed, and with me are Tabitha and..."

"Wrathior Drakon." Blake spoke in shock as she looks at Wraith, "You're Wrathior Drakon."

"Um...who's that?" Jaune asked, not sure who that guy is.

"Wrathior Drakon, the greatest warrior in Faunus history." Pyrrha explains to Jaune in shock, "During the great war, Wrathior was known to be the fiercest, most stubborn, and courageous Faunus warrior that history has ever known."

"In the face of adversity, he has been found in the front lines in every battle and always first to volunteer, willing to face down any enemy, with nerves of steel under fire." Blake added, looking at Wraith in shock, "He was also known to be the most lethal soldier in history, for he has no fear of death. And whenever he's in battle, his fire will burn through his enemy throughout the battlefield."

With that information, it shocked everyone, especially Glynda. She recalled hearing about Wrathior Drakon, a fearsome Faunus that has the power of the dragon due Semblance called Draconic, burning through the battlefield like a flaming comet, destroying all his enemies, bringing victory after victory to the Faunus. The Faunus community respected or better yet, worshiped him as their savior, and a historical reminder of how he sacrificed himself to destroy a huge brigade of humans during the war, giving the Faunus a chance to break through and fight the rest of the humans. But the one thing she knows is that no one can survive Wrathior Drakon's wrath, for he is a fire that never burns down in battle.

"Oh...my...gosh...you've been here all this time?" Yang asked Wraith in shock.

"How else did the kid learn ancient fighting styles? And like Regina, I've been reincarnated by the goddess, training kid since she summoned us. I changed my name from Wrathior to Wraith, so I won't draw attention...guess I was wrong." Wraith said to them.

"You can tell us more about this later, but right now, what are you doing?" Glynda asked them.

"Trying to awake Voltaria from her slumber." Tabitha said to them. "Look, something happened after both Ruby and Voltaria fell off the tower."

"Yeah, we turned into this Crimson Rose person...I still don't know how it was done." Ruby said to them.

"It's because it happens when you two share an incredible bond, sharing the same goal, as well as fusing both Fall and Winter Maiden powers together." Regina informs them.

Yang stops her there, "Wait...you're saying that Ruby has the..."

Regina nodded, "Indeed, she caught the card that houses the Fall Maiden's power, and Voltaria has the Winter Maiden power."

"But...how? How did Voltaria inherit it?" Glynda asked Regina.

"A story for another time, but right now, we need to awaken Voltaria before it's too late." Regina said to them seriously.

"You know about General Ironwood's plan?" Ren asked them, wanting to save Voltaria.

"Yeah, but that's not all." Wraith said seriously. "Someone is trying to take Voltaria's body."

"What?" They all asked in shock and confusion.

"You think we're the only entities? No, there are others beside us, some are friendly or not so friendly, and some are very dangerous." Wraith explains to them.

"Wait, how very dangerous are we talking about?" Jaune asked fearfully.

"Dangerous that they will kill anything living and cause a lot of bloodshed that would never end until all life we know is gone." Wraith answered, which shocks them even more, "But they aren't able to because they can't leave the Infraworld."

"What?" Wade asked in confusion.

"I'm sorry, what is this... Infraworld you speak of?" Glynda asked in confusion.

"The Infraworld is a place that appears to exist parallel to or partially in tandem with our own." Regina explained the best way she could, "It is not explicitly described as another dimension, more likely a world that is between the living and dead, where all souls and other entities reside, whether to be reincarnated or pass on to the afterlife."

"So...all you are reincarnations?" Ruby asked them.

"Me, Wraith, and Tabitha are. Marionette, Reaper, Bellum, Blood Moon, and Hannibal are the entities are from Infraworld."Regina stated to them, "But there are entities with no conscious and just kill with no remorse, those entities are Seelenlos, soulless entities that kill anything or anyone that is alive or with a soul. Those are the dangerous ones."

"That's...that's terrible." Pyrrha whispers in shock.

"It is indeed, and what's worse, they are trying to get to Voltaria for she is the only gateway for them to enter the living world, so they can use her to wreak havoc amongst the living, taking their lives and consuming their souls, preventing anyone from crossing the afterlife. We've been trying to keep the out of the bay and away from Voltaria." Regina explains worriedly.

"Is that why Hannibal is not here?" Ruby asked.

"Yes, both he and Blood Moon are at the Infraworld, fighting off Seelenlos that are trying to get to Voltaira." Regina explains to them.

This, however, angers Glynda dearly, using Voltaria as a host so they commit mast murder, unacceptable, "She's been through enough, she's need help." Glynda said to Regina.

"And that is why you all must help us awaken Voltaria, and bring her to safety, far from Vale and from Ironwood. She cannot be used as a weapon." Regina said to them.

"Don't worry, Regina, we're here to help." Yang said determinedly.

"But be warned, Voltaria's mind is completely jumbled and lost, you might face some of her negative emotions."

"Don't worry, we dealt with the worst." Nora assures her.

"But this is Voltaria's mind we are talking about. She's been suppressing her emotions for years, she locked in her mind since she was young. It is not like a battle you have faced before." Regina warns them.

"We will, Regina." Ruby said with a nod.

And with that, they carefully let go of their hands and searched for Voltaira, hoping to save her from those bad entities and leave as soon as possible. But soon, the dream of Voltaria's changed into a big forest near Mineral Town. They were confused by this but decided not to question it as they journey on.

"So...Regina? Why is V trap here?" Wade asked Regina as they walk, "Why won't she wake up?"

Regina lets out a gentle sigh as they continue to walk, "The truth is...she has locked herself within her own mind, refusing to wake up from her slumber."

"What!?" Everyone exclaimed in shock.

"Why would she do that?!" Ruby asked, her voice filled with panic and concern.

"Her emotions got the best of her." Regina answered solemnly, "She is feeling a great amount of pain, anger, regret, sadness, and guilt. She is reliving her life of the day that changed her. The day when she lost the one that she dears the most."

"...The day when she lost her mother." Pyrrha said solemnly.

"Indeed, she blames herself every day, believing that it was her fault that her mother perished, and she didn't do anything to save her." Regina said sadly.

"But...she was just a little girl." Weiss said, walking alongside the group.

Before Regin could speak, they suddenly heard growls. And soon, Grimms appeared, but they were different, they were emitting aura like flames that are the colors of burning red, sickly green, dark blue, dark purple, black, and gray.

"Are those Grimms?!" Wade asked, doing a battle stance with the others.

"No, they are her emotions, manifested into Grimms." Regina said to them, readying as well, "They are here to stop us."

"Why?" Yang asked, readying her battle stance.

"They are what you say guardians, trying to protect Voltaria's mind, and think we are a threat." Tabitha said to them.

"Ren, Nora, Ruby, you three should go look for V, and wake her up." Wade ordered them.

"Wait, us?" Ruby asked in surprise.

"You three know more about her then us. We'll hold these negative emotions off, long enough for you three to wake her up." Wade instructed them.

Ren wasn't sure if they should leave them but seeing their odds he has to agree and find Voltaria with Nora and Ruby. "All right, hold them off as long as you can." Ren said.

"Yeah, if we can, we don't have even weapons." Jaune said, scared at the sight of Voltaria's negative emotions.

Regina chuckles a bit, "All of you do realize that you're in the dream realm, correct?" She questions them, earning some nods, "And in the dream realm, all your dreams will come true if you think about it."

"What does that supposed to mean?" Weiss asked Regina.

Wade already knew what she meant, smirking at this, "It means, we can dream up anything we want and that includes..." Wade imagines his Justiceshot and it appears in his hand, allowing him to pull a trigger and fire at an incoming negative emotion. "Our weapons."

This gave the other opportunity as they summoned their weapons as well, readying for battle. Ren, Nora, and Ruby went off to search for Voltaria, but stopped by Regina.

"Make sure you find her and please...bring her back to us."

They nodded their heads determinedly, "We will." Ren said as they ran to the forest while the rest fend off Voltaria's negative emotions with Flare following them.

One of the negative emotions, a red Beowolf, saw them leaving and was about to stop them but Yang was in front of it as she uses her Ember Celica to punch and shoots it away from them.

"Oh, no you don't, big guy! You're noy getting in their way!" Yang said determinedly.

"Keep them occupied! We need to give Ren, Nora, and Ruby time to find V." Wade said, shooting a green Creep.

As they keep the negative emotions of Voltaria busy, Ren, Nora, and Ruby search through the forest of Voltaria's mind. They ran through the forest's path, searching for any sign of Voltaria. Ren and Nora were determined to find her, wanting to embrace her for all the years of torment she's been through, wanting to save her. Suddenly, a red Ursa came out of nowhere and attacked them. Before Ruby could do anything, Ren and Nora charged at it. Ren turned his StormFlower into blades and slashed it with incredible speed before moving away and allowed Nora to slam her Magnhild at it with a battle cry, causing to get hit and was sent flying to the trees. Ruby and Flare, who was riding on Ruby's hoody, just stared in shock at this, amazed at how fast they were.

"Come on, Ruby! Don't lag off!" Nora called out as she and Ren searched.

"C-Coming!" Ruby chases after them, running back on track, "Ren, Nora, you know more about the Mineral Town's Forest than anyone, do you know where Volty would go when she was young?"

"We don't know." Ren confesses, running through the forest. "We left the town to live with my uncle when Virgo turned two. Unless..."

"The fortress!" Nora exclaims as she remembered something when they were young, "When we were still living with Panny, Toren, and Virgo, we went to the forest and found a tree cave we called the fortress! We always go there to play or have picnics."

"And that's where we should go. I know Pandora would take Virgo there to show the good times we had." Ren said to Ruby.

"Okay, lead the way!" Ruby said as Ren and Nora showed her the direction.

Meanwhile, Jaune uses his Crocea Mors to slash a green Ursa away before using his shield to block its attack. He struggles to hold on as the negative emotion that manifests into an Ursa was pushing him down. But he soon heard a little girl's voice within the green Ursa.

"It's all my fault..."

"What?" Jaune questions this in confusion.

Suddenly, Pyrrha came out of nowhere and kicked the Ursa away from Jaune, "Jaune! Are you okay?!" She asked in concern.

"I...I heard her voice." Jaune could say, making Pyrrha confused.

"Jaune, what are you talking about?" Pyrrha asked in confusion.

"I heard Virgo's or Voltaria's voice when she was little...she sounded guilty."

"It's her negative emotions." Regina said, sending a red Beringel away from her, "Voltaria blames herself for her mother's death, because she saw the future when she was young, she didn't know what it meant until it was too late. She believes that it was her fault that her mother died."

"But she was just a little girl!" Blake exclaimed, shooting a grey Creep away with her Gambol Shroud, "She didn't know about it! She can't blame herself!"

"We've been trying to tell her that, but she won't listen." Tabitha said, dodging a purple Death Stalker before Wraith punched it hard on its head.

"Kid still blames herself for her mother's death. That's why she blocked all her emotions, so she won't remember her failure for not saving her mother." Wraith said before yelling as he tosses the purple Death Stalker to a red Beowolf.

"But still, she can't blame herself! It wasn't her fault!" Yang said, yelling as she blocked the claws of a black Beringel. They all fought Voltaria's negative emotions, hearing her little voice filled with anger, sadness, and guilt.

"I should've helped mommy!"

"Why did they do it!?"

"I don't want to be alone!"

"It's my fault she died!"

"I should've known!"

As Voltaria's negative emotions surround them, Ren, Nora, and Ruby reach their destination. On a clearing, there was a huge tree that had a hollow opening. The surrounding area was lifeless, no flowers and the ground were grey and dead.

"This is it." Ren said, looking at the fortress.

"Do you hear that?" Nora questions them, hearing a small cry inside the hollow tree. "I hear someone crying!"

"Could it be Volty?" Ruby asked.

"Could be, let's check-LOOK OUT!" Ren warned as they quickly dodged an unknown creature.

As they recovered, they discovered that this wasn't a negative emotion that manifested into a Grimm. Instead, it was an unknown entity with formless shape and appeared like a black smoke with two reddish spots similar to eyes.

"What is that thing?!" Ren pointed his StormFlower at it.

Flare started ringing rapidly, terrified at it, Ruby's eyes widened as she understood what Flare meant, "It's a Seelenlos! The entity that always kills! Regina warned us about it!"

"It must've somehow sneaked past Hannibal and Blood Moon!" Ren said, ready to fire, "I think it's trying to get to Virgo!"

"Not on my watch!" Nora yelled as she used her Magnhild to fire some rounds at it, but it dodged and attacked her. Nora then turns her Magnhild to hammer and lets out a battle cry before being able to hit it, sending it crashing to the trees. They thought Nora got it, but it soon lets out a strange shriek-like scream that could shatter their eardrums. Soon, it began to sprout a mouth with sharp teeth. They were shocked that it could do that, but what's more shocking is that more came out of nowhere, wanting to get out of their world and wreak havoc in the living.

"Ren! Nora! Go wake up Volty! I'll hold them off!" Ruby said, readying her Crescent Rose.

"Right! Stay strong, Ruby!" Nora encourages as she and Ren run towards the tree.

"Hang on, Flare!" Ruby said as she battled the Seelenlos, dodging and shooting at them the best way she could.

Ren and Nora quickly went to the hollow of the tree and saw darkness inside, but they could hear a small cry inside that belonged to Virgo. They even heard her whispering.

"It's all my fault...Mommy's gone because of me...I should've helped her...I could've saved her...I'm so useless..."

"Virgo..." Ren whispers out, feeling sadness and guilt towards her, knowing that she's been through much, "It wasn't your fault that Pandora died."

"But I saw it...I saw it happening before it could even begin...I should've prevented it...I could've saved her!"

As she screamed, the world around them started to shake, the sky began to crack like glass and slowly darkened. Ruby fends off the Seelenlos, but they surround her, like they were going for the kill, and once they do so, they will go get their new host. Flare warns Ruby about their plan since she could understand entities, and Ruby will not have it.

"Oh, no you're not! Volty is not your weapon!" Ruby said and her eyes began to emit red aura flames.

Soon enough, a powerful wind came out of nowhere, and blew the Seelenlos away from them, causing Ruby to grin in satisfaction. She didn't think that the maiden's power would actually work here, but it did! However, before she could celebrate, a huge piece of glass fell next to her, causing both Ruby and Flare to shriek in fear. They were not the only ones, the others were also dealing with this similar experience as huge chunks of glass fell from the sky to dream, nearly crushing them or crushing the negative emotions.

"What's going on?!" Yang yelled, dodging an incoming glass shard.

Regina formed a shield around them, bouncing off any shards that come at them, "It's Voltaria, she's breaking herself! If continues this, she will not only lose herself, but will open a gateway for the Seelenlos to get in and use her!"

"Crap! We need to move!" Wade said, readying his gun.

Everyone agrees and readies themselves while Yang looks in the direction where her sister is, "Hurry, Ruby." She prayed quietly before Regina opened the field and allowed them to fight.

Meanwhile, Ruby continues fending off the Seelenlos while Ren and Nora were trying to convince Voltaria's inner mind to let go. "Virgo, you can't blame this, yes, you could have predicted it. But when you were young, you didn't know what it was."

"You don't understand, mommy's never coming back because it's all my fault that she's gone...I'm the reason for her death..." Little Virgo said, crying.

Both Ren and Nora stared at the darkness, ignoring the falling glass and the Seelenlos that were being crushed at them, "That's where you are wrong. We do understand you...we feel your loss...and your pain." Ren said to her.

Soon, the forest shifted to reveal a scene of a young Ren living a happy life in a village called Kuroyuri with both his parents, Li Ren and An Ren. It was a happy memory until a Grimm Attack happened, many fled or were killed by the Grimms, Ren was able to escape along with a young Nora, who was abandoned by her mother there in the village before it was attacked, and the two worked together to survive after escaping Kuroyuri. But soon, they were found by Pandora Twilight, who took them under her wing, raising them with Toren. Giving them comfort and love along with her daughter. They all suffered hardship and lost but found happiness in the end.

"We lost and suffered like you, Virgo." Ren said to her in the darkness, "But we gain happiness in the end."

"Wh...what do you mean?"

"They may be gone, but they're always with us, right here." Ren placed his hand on his chest, where his heart is. "We carry them in our hearts, forever. Even if we can't change the past, we can always change the future."

"And you're not alone." Nora added with a smile, "You opened up to us and brought us together to stop Cinder's plan and...and reunite again. You don't have to hide anymore."

"But...if I don't then..."

"You don't to worry." Ruby said, coming over to them after the Seelenlos were trapped in the glass that fell on them, "You don't have to take all this burden on your own. You have us to help you along the way. I mean, you accomplished so much, making new friends, helping others, and...always being there for us. And now, we're here for you."

"...As a friend?"

That's when Ren shook his head, giving her a small smile, "No...as a family." He said softly as outstretches his hand at her, "You can live a life without being scared, you can be free to be who you want to be."

There was hesitation within the shadow, as if she was thinking. They were patient as they waited for her answer. But as they waited, one of Seelenlos was struggling to break free, needing to escape, trying to prevent her from healing herself.

"...What do I...what do I need to do?" Little Virgo asked in the darkness.

Ren spoke in a calm and gentle voice, "You just have to let go and move on." Ren holds up his hand, "So? Are you ready?"

They heard shuffling from the inside, like she was getting up, this however caused the Seelenlos to break free and charge after them, trying to prevent them from waking the girl up. But it was too late. Soon, Little Virgo emerged from the darkness of the tree and embraced Ren, who returned the embrace along with Nora and Ruby. And with that, Flare emitted a powerful light that engulfs them while sending the Seelenlos and the glass shards away. Soon, the light consumes the entire dream realm of Voltaria, ridding the Seelenlos and the negative emotions. Once it was cleared, everyone found themselves in a field of flowers and in the center was a huge tree that was filled with life. But what's more shocking was a giant flaming phoenix above the tree, it emitted beautiful colors of red, gold, and orange. And the sky was filled with a colorful aurora. They were shocked and amazed by this but soon cut off when they saw Ren, Nora, and Ruby hugging little Virgo, who hugs back and was crying. They quickly came to them to see if they were okay. Luckily, they weren't hurt, they were just embracing each other. As they let go, little Virgo looks at everyone, eyes still with tears, as she sniffles a bit, as if she was guilty of causing trouble.

"I'm sorry..." She apologizes to them, which earned gentle smiles from the group.

"Hey, it's okay, V." Wade said gently, patting her head gently. "You've been through a tough life."

"Yeah, and besides, it was kind of cool beating up your negative emotions." Yang said with a grin, earning a gentle elbow from Blake.

"You can let go of your traumatic past and move on." Glynda said towards the little girl.

Little Virgo nods her head, "I know, and I will..."

Soon, Flare's giant phoenix form lands close to them and lets out a shriek, "Wow! Flare! You're huge!"

"How did this happen?" Ren asked curiously, still holding little Virgo.

"Simple really." Regina said as she smiled at Flare's phoenix form. "Love and acceptance trigger her to activate this form, thus stopping the Seelenlos."

"So, cool..." Ruby said before noticing at a distance. "Woah..."

They followed her gaze and were shocked to see that Voltaira, in her Semblance form, was standing a few feet from them. She stares at them blankly as she looks towards Virgo, who looks back at her, before the older girl outstretches her hand. Regina knew it was time for her young self to accept the changes.

"I believe it is time for you all to go now." Regina said to them.

"Are you sure?" Blake asked, wanting to stay and help.

"It is time for our young mistress to finally accept her emotions back." Regina answered with a smile.

"Her...emotions?" Weiss asked.

"Indeed, little Virgo you see, is actually her emotions that locked away. And now...it is time for her to be whole again." Regina explains softly.

Ren looked at Voltaria and then to Virgo, she was looking at her older version with a mixed expression. Ren gently pats her head, causing the little girl to look at him. "Hey...you can do it." He encourages her with a smile, which she returns.

"I know...I'm not scared anymore." She whispers to him before getting up as she heads towards her older form.

"Get on Flare." Tabitha said to the group, "What's going to happen here must be resolved by her."

Glynda nodded her head, "Very well." She said as she and the others got on Flare.

Ruby looks over towards little Virgo facing her older self calmly, "Wake up, Volty." Ruby whispers before Flare takes off, leaving the dream realm.

Voltaria looks down at little Virgo and brings her hand out to her, "Are you ready?" She asked.

Little Virgo took a deep breath and sigh, looking towards her, and then accepting her hand, "I'm ready..."

And with that, the world turns to white.

Ruby lets out a gasp as she shoots up from her bed in her hospital room. She was panting like crazy as beads of sweats rolled down her forehead. She looked towards the cloak and saw it was midnight. After calming herself, Ruby remembers the event that transpired with the dream realm. She quickly got off her bed and ran out of her room, stumbling in the process, as she got and went towards Voltaria's room. Opening the door, Ruby was greeted at the sight of Voltaria, sitting up from her bed, looking at the shattered moon from her window. Ruby notices that she was holding her mask in her hand, which confuses her in the process. But soon stopped when Voltaria turned to her, revealing her face and her sapphire blue eyes. A single tear falls from her eye as she stares towards Ruby.

"Ruby...thank you." She whispers towards her friend.

Smiling in relief, Ruby went towards her friend and hugged her, who later returned the hug, "That's what friends are for..." Ruby whispers, eyes closed as she smiles happily, knowing just saved her friend from danger.

On the next day, General Ironwood was walking through the halls of the hospital, with some Atlesian Knights following him. He was there to pick up Voltaria, transferring her to Atlas for security measure. Upon arrival, he saw Ozpin was already there, talking with the doctor.

"I'm sorry, Professor Ozpin, but this girl is already going to be transferred soon. There's nothing I can do to stop it." The male doctor said to Ozpin.

Ozpin sighs as he looks towards Ironwood, coming from the hall with his knight, "I would recommend you reconsider letting Ms. Voltaria Eclipse go, she is just a child." Ozpin said in a calm tone.

"Ozpin, the council has decided, it is time we take drastic measures." Ironwood said as he looked at the doctor with a nod. The doctor obeyed and opened the door to reveal Voltaria's room, but to their shock, Voltaria was not even in here!

"What?!" The doctor exclaims as he enters the room. "She's gone!"

"How is it possible?" Ironwood asked the doctor, "You said that she was still in a coma."

"She was! But now...now she is gone! I just checked on her this morning, she was still asleep!"

As the doctor and Ironwood talk, Ozpin notices a piece of paper on the desk with a black chess piece of a knight standing on top of it. He picks up the chess piece and observes it before placing it down and picks up the paper and sees a message. He hums a bit as he looks over to Ironwood, "It appears that Ms. Eclipse has left us a message."

Ironwood turns to him and is about to ask but stops when he notices Ozpin holding the paper. The professor hands it over to Ironwood, who takes it, before reading the message that was written on it.

Better luck next time.

"...She knew." Ironwood mutters out, eyes narrowed in suspicion.

"It seems so, she disappeared right under our noses yet again." Ozpin walked towards the window as he watched some Bullheads take to the sky. "I believe she might be gone for a while."

Ironwood looks at his friend seriously, "What do you mean?"

"Ms. Eclipse is many things, but thing for sure, she will return to Vale, and help us with the battle against Salem." Ozpin said to the general while staring out the window.

"Then where did she-" Ironwood was cut off when a female nurse came into the room.

"Doctor! Patients Mercury Black and Emerald Sustrai! They...they..."

"What's wrong?! Did they escape?!" The doctor asked in panic.

"No! They...they turned into crystals." The nurse said, shocking them in the process, "I was going to check on them when I saw them turned to crystals! I didn't even know it was possible!"

"Oh, dear, I need to check on them, excuse me." The doctor said, leaving the room with the nurse.

As they watched them leave, both Ozpin and Ironwood looked at each other with suspicion, "You don't think she..." Ironwood was cut off when he received a message from one of his soldiers, "This Ironwood...WHAT?!"

"What is it?" Ozpin asked the general.

"The crystallized Roman Torchwick, he's gone." Ironwood said to Ozpin with narrowed eyes, "Security footage did not catch anything on who took him, no one, other than the scientists, could get in or out without passing security." Ironwood then sighs as he pitches the bridge of his nose, "This is getting more and more difficult."

"Indeed, each task always has another mystery." Ozpin said as he looked at the empty room of Voltaria's, "But right now, we solve one problem at time, for we need to finish repairing Vale as soon as possible."

Ironwood, even though he wanted answers, had no choice but to agree to see. But he will get his answers and he knows that Voltaria has the answers he seeks.

Somewhere at the West of Vale is the Island of Patch, small yet relatively secluded island with heavy forested areas that is infested with Grimm, which only contained Beowolves and some Ursas. Even though there are Grimms there, it was safe enough for a town to be built and for the people to build a combat school which is Signal Academy. This island is also home of both Yang Xiao Long and Ruby Rose and were raised by their single dad, Taiyang Xiao Long.

Speaking of Taiyang, the single father was in his home, which is the Xiao Long Cabin, and doing some cleaning up. The cabin is located in a forest on the island of Patch, it wasn't far from town, only a ten to fifteen walk there. Anyways, after Taiyang finished cleaning up, he heard a knock from the door. Taiyang went towards the door and opened it, and then he smiled widely to see his two daughters grinning at him.

"Hey, dad!" Both Ruby and Yang greeted their dad happily.

"Girls! You're back, thank goodness!" Taiyang said in relief, before being embraced by his daughters. He was so worried about them. After he heard the news of the Grimm invasion, he thought he lost them like his wife, Summer Rose. But they're okay and the city is slowly being rebuilt. As they let go, Taiyang gave his daughters a happy smile, "I'm so relieved that you girls are safe! After what happened from Vale and those Grimms..."

"It's okay, dad, everyone is safe and rescued." Yang said happily before remembering something, "Oh! Me and Ruby bought you some gifts!" She said as she and Ruby showed him their gifts to their dad, which made him smile, before she added, "Also...we have some friends that will be staying with us."

Taiyang looks at Yang with a raised brow, "What kind of friends?"

Ruby and Yang grinned as they moved aside to gesture at Voltaria, without her mask, and with her were the hybrids, Amaryllis & Ripper, awaiting with her. Taiyang was surprised by this, especially seeing two dinosaur-like beings with them. He looks at his daughters in confusion and shock as they give their dad an assuring look.

"Dad, this is our friend, Voltaria Eclipse, she helped us fight off the Girmms at Vale. And also, we raised two hybrid dinosaurs when we found them as eggs." Ruby said with a sheepish smile in the end before she looked at her dad. "She has nowhere to go and what you saw on TV...people will go after her, so...can they stay?"

Taiyang thinks about it as he looks towards Voltaria, she has her head down and is looking at the ground. He could tell that she was tired and needed a place to stay. As if she's been through a rough path. He then looked at Amaryllis and Ripper. The two hybrid dinosaurs were looking at Taiyang curiously, like they know that he's the alpha here and the father of both Mamma Red and Auntie Goldie (Yang). So, they have to treat Taiyang with the utmost respect. Both Amaryllis and Ripper lowered their heads in submissions as well as greeting him. Taiyang was surprised by their action before looking towards Voltaria, who still didn't look at him, and understood that they are not bad people. So, with his decision made, Taiyang gave Voltaria a kind smile before placing a hand on her head, causing Voltaria to look at him.

"Thank you for helping my daughters." Taiyang said kindly, "You can live with us as long as you want."

"Are you sure? I...I can find somewhere else to stay." Voltaria suggested.

"No way, V. We already agree that you need a place to stay." Yang said to Voltaria, remembering how they all agreed that she should stay with them in Patch with Amaryllis and Ripper, for safety reasons and to keep her and the hybrids in low profile. Till the media dies down a bit and Ironwood stops thinking about Voltaria as a threat, she can go back to Beacon, with backup.

"And besides! We've got an extra room for you to stay! Plus, it'll be nice to get to know you more!" Ruby said happily.

"...I...I...I don't know what to say but..." Voltaria takes a deep breath and looks at them calmly, "...Thank you."

Taiyang smiles at her, "You're welcome. Now, why don't we show you to your room and you can set your things there."

"To be honest, I don't have much, I just travel places with little items." Voltaria said to them.

"Oh! We have our old clothes!" Yang said with a grin, "They'll fit you just fine! Or better yet, let's go shopping to buy you new clothes! I'll call AJ! She knows about fashion better than anyone."

"...Yeah...I'm good. Thanks anyways," Voltaria said calmly, but appreciates her offer.

"Okay, come on! Let's show you to your new room!" Yang said as she brought Voltaria in with Taiyang following them from behind.

Ruby looked over to Amaryllis and Ripper and said, "You guys can look around the house, after Volty's settled in, let's explore the forest and find a nice place to make your nest!"

Both Amaryllis and Ripper roared in agreement, happy that they could stay with their pack. Since Kurama and Amber returned back to Mineral Town, they suggested that both Amaryllis and Ripper stayed at Patch with Ruby and Voltaria since they are now in a secluded area far from the city. Plus, they can be close to them now.

Ruby smiles at them before looking at her hoody, "Ready to see you new home, Flare?" Flare the dream flame nodded happily. Since she bonded with Ruby, she's allowed to leave the dream realm.

"Hmm..." Regina hummed in Voltaria's mind.

"Is there something in your mind, Regina?" Voltaria asked her.

"Nothing much, but I feel like this will be a nice change of pace for you, mistress."

Voltaria couldn't help but nod her head in agreement as Yang and Ruby showed Voltaria her room where she will be sleeping, "It is...nice to have a home for once."

Tabitha agrees, "And the best part, you can contact your Ren and Nora anytime you want. But in a private channel."

"You know...this gonna be hard to get used to." Wraith said to them, "Having them in our pack is somewhat...I don't...good I guess?"

Regina chuckled, "It seems that you've become soft, Wraith."

"Shut up, Regina."

"Me like it here." Hannibal said happily.

"Yeah..." Voltaria said in agreement, looking at Yang and Ruby, who begins showing her around their home with Taiyang watching in amusement as a small smile form on her face. "I like it here too."

And done, whoa, it took me a while to figure out what to write here. I got the Infraworld from the game Beyond: Two Souls. The bad entities, so I called them Seelenlos which is German for Soulless. And thanks again for helping find a voice actress for Crimson Rose, I will update you all soon. And yes, I will add the Spinosaurus from Jurassic World 3 there and I already have a name for him. And the Scorpius Rex will also be there, and don't worry, I already made plans and it will be added soon. Other dinosaurs and hybrids will be joining soon.

Also, dream flames won't catch anything on fire or burn anyron, just saying.

Thanks so much, and I will continue this soon.
