Ruby and the rest of her unit had spent pretty much all day trying to find information about who this red-headed White Fang member could be, but they found nothing. There were multiple White Fang members in the system in Atlas, but none who matched the description of their offender. It was basically impossible to find information on White Fang members outside of the system, given the fact that the organization was so secretive. Ruby sighed at the fact that she may have to get Blake involved in this, which was something that she really did not want to do.
It was true that Ruby was angry at Blake just like the others and didn't really consider her to be a friend anymore, but that didn't mean that she wanted to drag Blake into her past. Given the obsession with the White Fang that Blake showed throughout these few months, Ruby imagined that something bad happened between them that caused Blake to defect. It was clear that whatever it was Blake was still not over it, and Ruby really did not want to throw it in her face. That being said though, was there really another option? They needed to find out who this offender was, but how? Ruby's thought process was interrupted when Seth placed his hand on her shoulder.
"Hey, are you ok?" Seth asked worried and Ruby just smiled.
"Yeah I am good, don't worry." Ruby said while winking at him and Seth smiled and nodded.
"OK, don't stress yourself out alright?" Seth asked and Ruby nodded, then Sindel got everyone's attention.
"Alright everyone, have we made any progress?" Sindel asked and Sin broke the bad news to her.
"Sorry Ma'am but we have been through every file in the system, there has been no White Fang member matching that description. And in the footage we have seen there has been no one in the White Fang with Red Hair. The only thing that we have to go on is that kid's testimony and even then maybe he saw something different. You would think that if this guy is a higher up in the organization, we would have seen him in that footage somewhere." Sin said and everyone agreed.
"So, let's go over what we know so far. The three perpetrators behind the rise in crime recently are Roman Torchwick, Dexter DeShawn, and some White Fang member with red hair and a different mask than usual. We know from Ruby that Roman Torchwick and the White Fang have gone on some joint business venture together, one that involves getting an absurd amount of dust. We know from Shauna that Dexter DeShawn is responsible for information gathering, likely gathering intel on the stores with the most dust. The question is, what is the end goal?" Sindel asked her unit and everyone was wondering the same thing.
"You all don't think that the White Fang are going to do another terrorist attack do you? Then again, you don't need all of that dust unless you are going to blow something up…" Mira said in worry with her finger on her chin and Jago nodded.
"To be honest, I forgot about that mine incident until we had to go get the dust out of the mine. The White Fang are carrying on their mission to be recognized and respected in the world, and they can't do that unless they have a big influence. That mine incident clearly didn't cut it, so now they are trying to do something that will really get their message across. What's frustrating is that there are so many monuments and important places among Remnant that they could target, so narrowing down targets will be difficult." Jago informed them and they all nodded.
"I say we let General Ironwood know and get his help, this is something that greatly concerns him and the people of Atlas. With his influence, I am sure that General Ironwood can gather information from the other kingdoms so we can find this third offender and see what they are all up to. The last thing that we need is for the White Fang to commit a large-scale attack, the public would be scared out of their mind and blame all huntsman if that were to happen." Litchi stated and Sindel nodded her head.
"I agree, I will let General Ironwood know as soon as possible." Sindel said and as if on cue, General Ironwood entered the office.
"Ah, speak of the devil! General Ironwood, I was just about to contact you and then you appear! Is there something that you needed?" Sindel asked and Ironwood shook his head.
"No Special Agent Diamond, I just wanted to see how the intelligence unit was doing after their first week and it seems like you are doing well! Now, what did you need from me?" Ironwood asked curiously and Litchi sighed.
"General Ironwood, you may want to sit down because we have a lot to brief you on and it is serious." Litchi said in a serious manner and Ironwood did as he was told.
After hearing the briefing from the Intelligence unit, General Ironwood wondered to himself why he did not create this unit sooner. The unit apparently found out things that not even the higher-ups had discovered, and they did it so quickly. In terms of their mission, they discovered the perpetrators of the rise in crime in his Kingdom. While he was unfamiliar with Dexter DeShawn, he knew about Roman Torchwick thanks to the reports he got from Vale as well as Team RWBY.
It did make the General a bit uneasy though, he thought that Torchwick and the White Fang were operating somewhere out of Southeast Vale, so what were they doing in Atlas? How did he have reach that expanded all the way into Atlas and Mantle? And how were they not spotted or reported? The most important question was what was the White Fang going to do with all of the dust they stole? James knew for a fact that Torchwick had nothing to do with the plan, considering all he cared about was the money and respect. Whatever they were planning, James knew that it would be catastrophic.
General Ironwood agreed with Sindel and Litchi that he needed to reach out to the other kingdoms to see if they had any information this mystery man from the White Fang. It pained James to admit it, but when it came to information on the White Fang he and the Atlas military were in the dark. The organization was so secretive and sneaky that no one knew what they were planning. But they clearly didn't mind getting destructive if the mine incident was anything to go by. He wondered if he should let the council know about this, probably not yet until he had better information. Nevertheless, he was grateful for the information the intelligence unit gave him and expressed his gratitude.
"Well, let me first start off by saying that you all have done a great job in exceeding my expectations and in your first week! There was a lot of doubt when this unit was created, but you students have shown you can step up and help the people of Atlas and Mantle. I want to thank you all for your work because you have provided information that will help us take down these criminals. Now, as for getting help from the other kingdoms I have to agree, we need all the help we can get if the perpetrators reach extends so far. I will get on that as soon as possible you have my word." General Ironwood said with honesty causing the others to smile.
"You honor us with your words of praise and gratitude General Ironwood, I think I speak for everyone when I say we will continue to help in any way we can. For now though, I think you kids have been through enough hell for one week, and what a week it was. You all can go back to the hotel or do whatever you want for the weekend but be sure to get some rest. For all we know, next week may be even more stressful than this one and we might have to do more field work." Sindel stated seriously and Litchi nodded.
"Sindel is right, be sure to relax and have fun this weekend, but also be sure to get your minds right. I should also mention that if you want to practice your skills there is a training room in this facility and a shooting range if you want to practice. Ruby it will probably be no problem for you but be sure to keep your skill in precision up to date, the same goes for all of you and your skills. We need you at your best, if you come in the weekend just scan your scroll and you can get in. Now go on, enjoy some free time in doing whatever it is teenagers do, you are dismissed." Litchi said with a smile as the students thanked them and went on their way.
Ruby and the others could not wait for the weekend, they had enough of looking through files, footage and questioning people for one week. It was true that they all were incredibly grateful for the opportunity, but the work they were doing really could be stressful and they had no idea how Sindel or Litchi coped with it. They would have to do it again next week, but for the next two days it was going to be all about fun and relaxation. Ruby was looking forward to hanging out with Seth and getting to know him more, however she did want to go to the shooting range to make sure that her skill was still 100%.
In terms of what to do tonight though, Cana had messaged Ruby and Mira about a new club earlier in the week which they had told the others about. That was probably the best option for tonight because they all needed some fun and that club was the best place to do it. Not to mention it would be good to see Cana again because she and Ruby had gotten to be good friends as they texted every day. Though Ruby wondered if they would be carded at this place, considering her age that could be a problem. Oh well, if it was a problem they would figure it out. Suddenly Mira got everyone's attention.
"OK, all in favor of having fun tonight at that new club Cana recommended, raise your hand." Mira asked and not a second later everyone's hand shot up like a rocket.
"Guess that settles it, I could use some fun after this week. Let's see it's 4 PM now, what time do you guys wanna go? I may try to sneak in a nap." Bakugo said honestly and Ruby nodded.
"Yeah I am with you on that 100%, I will text Cana that we will meet her and the others there at about 7-7:30, is that ok with everyone?" Ruby asked the others, and everyone nodded.
With everything settled the Intelligence Unit got on the shuttles to go back to the hotel, and Ruby texted Cana to let her know of the plan. She sat next to Seth on the shuttle and leaned into him which he obliged to as he wrapped his arm around her. Cana texted Ruby back and let her know that the plan sounded good and that she would see them tonight. Ruby let everyone know and they all expressed their gratitude, they were glad they could get some rest before going out to have fun. Considering her first party was a success, Ruby was looking forward to tonight as well.
BACK AT BEACON ACADEMY
On the rooftop of the freshmen years dorm, Pyrrha Nikos and Jaune Arc were sparring and trying to improve. Well, it was mostly Jaune that was trying to improve considering that he lacked fighting skills and faked his way to Beacon. Pyrrha on the other hand was a tournament champion and was a brilliant fighter, so she did her best to try and help Jaune become a great huntsman. It was true that most people would have went to the higher ups and told them about Jaune cheating his way in, but Pyrrha knew Jaune was a good person and wanted to help others.
So here they were, on the rooftop engaged in swordplay and it was true that Jaune was getting better, but it still was slow, and he had a long way to go. Pyrrha exposed that fact when she and Jaune's swords were locked and he was getting cocky, leaving himself wide open to a sweep attack and Pyrrha did just that. Previously engaged in combat, Jaune Arc was now on the floor with an annoyed look on his face, while Pyrrha was standing above him with a victorious smile on her face. Pyrrha laughed and extended her hand to Jaune, who grabbed it and she pulled him up.
"Well done! Your swordplay has improved immensely!" Pyrrha praised.
"Couldn't have done it without you." Jaune said but he didn't sound happy.
"So, are you ready to move onto aura?" Pyrrha asked but Jaune just scratched his head.
"I'm just thinking that we maybe skip aura tonight, might go on a jog or something." Jaune said honestly but Pyrrha was having none of it.
"Come on Jaune! I know you get frustrated, but you must keep trying! I am sure that we will find your semblance any day now." Pyrrha said reassuringly but Jaune just sighed.
"It's not that it's-it's dumb." Jaune said sadly and Pyrrha sighed.
"It's about Ruby isn't it?" Pyrrha asked knowingly and Jaune just nodded.
It had been a full week since Ruby left to take part in that unit in Atlas, and Team JNPR had felt like garbage ever since that Friday. They still could not believe that they said those things about Ruby and worse she had heard them firsthand. They were all really so focused on badmouthing Ruby that no one noticed she was standing outside the door. It was really pathetic on their part and they had tried to message and call her in order to apologize to her, but they got nothing. In fact, all of the messages everyone sent Ruby still show 'delivered', so she didn't even read one of them.
It really made Team JNPR angry, they knew Ruby was mad at them, but they were still her friends and cared about her. Hell, were they? What kind of friend talks trash about you behind your back? Pyrrha blamed herself because she felt that she should have been the bigger person and told everyone to back off badmouthing Ruby. She did the opposite, joining in the talk bad about Ruby game and she felt ashamed for it. Getting out of her thoughts, Pyrrha turned her attention back to Jaune.
"Jaune, all we can do is wait for her to come back and then apologize to her. I know it is frustrating, but we just need to be patient and hope it will all work out." Pyrrha said calmly and Jaune just sighed.
"I know, but…" Jaune started as he looked away.
"Jaune, what's going on?" Pyrrha asked in a worried tone and then Jaune let it out.
"It was just nice ok! It was nice not being the butt of the joke that night, and it felt good to not be the one that was talked about! Ever since I got here people have made fun of me and I have been embarrassed constantly, but I haven't changed! And Ruby is this black and red scythe swinging and gunslinging badass, who is younger than us and one of the strongest here! But when she gets her feelings hurt she gets to have a mood shift and treat us all like nuisances?! How is that fair?" Jaune asked frustrated but Pyrrha just sighed.
"Jaune, of the people who talk badly about you, who among them are your friends?" Pyrrha asked seriously and Jaune widened his eyes and then looked down ashamed.
"None of them…" Jaune admitted.
"That is the point Jaune, Ruby doesn't care about random people talking bad about her but when it is her friends that are doing it of course she will have a bad reaction. As for her new attitude, I think it was slowly taking over her and our talk that night just made it permanent. We said that we wanted her to leave us alone, and she is doing just that. Even though all of us regret what we said wholeheartedly…" Pyrrha said as she looked down in sadness.
"Pyrrha, do you think Ruby will even forgive us?" Jaune asked with worry and Pyrrha looked unsure.
That was a very good question, one that Pyrrha did not know the answer to. If she had to guess then the answer would be no, considering that before she left Ruby was clearly content on doing things on her own. She didn't eat lunch with them or her team, and people only really saw her when she went to bed. And Ruby was clearly having fun in Atlas, seeing as though she didn't answer anyone's messages and Yang had told them that she went out to parties with her new friends. That is what they could have done but they deemed her too young, even though they were as well. So, what reason did Ruby have to forgive them? Pyrrha didn't see one but that wouldn't stop her from trying.
"I am not sure Jaune, but we won't know unless we try. And whatever happens after that is anyone's guess but if she doesn't forgive us then we will have to find a way that she will. We can't push her though and we need to let her know that we really are sorry. Now, shall we begin with your aura training?" Pyrrha asked with a smile and Jaune nodded with one of his own. They may not have known what to do about Ruby, but they could only focus on what was going on right now.
After they were done practicing, the two went back to their dorm room to freshen up and see what the others wanted to do. It was a Friday night, so they did not have any classes to prepare for or anything like that. They felt some fun was needed after the week they had but considering what was going on they feared that none of their friends would want to hang out. Everyone was still sad about Ruby but maybe they could push down that sadness for one night. Both of them wondered what Ruby was doing in Atlas right now, probably going out with her new friends.
BACK IN ATLAS
The ringing on Ruby's scroll told her it that it was time to get up and get ready for the night out she and her friends were going to have. It was great to get a quick nap in, considering that she had been through quite a stressful week in the unit, but she was grateful for the experience. The arms around her reminded Ruby that she was not alone under her blanket, as she turned around and kissed Seth. They went back to Ruby's room after the shuttle dropped them off to get some alone time before tonight.
Considering that they had only met a week ago, Ruby and Seth were trying to take things slow and get to know each other some more. That is why Ruby accepted his company as they were trying to talk and relax back at her room, but they were so tired that they instantly fell asleep. That being said though, Ruby didn't mind being in the arms of her handsome and strong boyfriend. The same goes for Seth, he liked having Ruby in his arms and feeling on her curves. Sadly, all good things come to an end and Ruby started to separate from Seth.
"As nice as this, it's time to get up as I have to start getting ready for tonight." Ruby said as she kissed Seth and then got up.
"What already? It's only 6 PM, we still have another hour before we head out. Why are you getting ready so early?" Seth asked confused and Ruby just laughed.
"Because I am a girl and we actually take the time to look great unlike you boys." Ruby said sticking her tongue out and Seth looked offended.
"Hey! I will have you know that I take the time to make the most out of my appearance. I just do it quick and efficiently unlike you girls who take forever to get ready for some God unknown reason." Seth fired back but Ruby just rolled her eyes.
"That reason is called hair, makeup, perfume, etc. We can't have the privilege of just putting on deodorant and brushing our hair for 3 minutes like boys can. Trust me I used to be like how you are when I was younger but as I got older I learned the process. A process that I need to begin, so go freshen up and if you need another nap to take a quick one. And put on some nice cologne, I want you to be smelling good when we walk into the club." Ruby ordered and Seth just rolled his eyes in an amused fashion.
"Yes ma'am." Seth said as he and Ruby kissed a few times before he walked out the door.
Now that Ruby was alone she started to get ready for tonight, the first thing she had to do was figure out her outfit. Luckily for her, she already had a few ideas, and it wasn't long before she chose one. Black was her color, so she chose her black sweater with a gold line design on it as well as her black jeans. She would touch it up with her gold necklace and her rings and then she would be good to go! With that being settled, Ruby grabbed her clothes and placed them on the bed, then she hopped in the shower.
While taking her bath, Ruby was contemplating things that had occurred in the week, as the weeks were starting to get more eventful. She thought back to the talk with her Dad and wondered how he broke the news to her Uncle Tai. Ruby also wondered if her dad or Tai were actually going to tell Yang the truth, and Ruby honestly though that the answer was no. It was clear they were fine with keeping secrets and Ruby doubted that either one of them would tell the truth because of that.
The other thing that was on Ruby's mind was her teammate Blake, especially her connection to the White Fang. There was no doubt in Ruby's mind that Blake would know who the perpetrator in their case was, given how much time she spent with that organization. The thing that Ruby had concerns about though was the possibility that their suspect could have played a part in the reason why Blake defected in the first place. If that was true, there was no telling if Blake would open up or admit to knowing whoever this guy was.
It was for this reason that Ruby hoped General Ironwood found something before they all returned on Monday. She really wanted this problem to solved as soon as possible but knew that she had to maintain some patience. Ruby also made a note to go to the training facility tomorrow, she needed to keep her skills in check and looking through files wasn't going to cut it. If they find these guys, Ruby imagined they were not going to go down quietly so she had to be at her best.
Ruby turned the water off and got out of the shower, she first brushed her teeth so that she wouldn't have any foul breath. While doing so she looked at her scroll and she had about thirty minutes to finish getting ready, and then she noticed that she had some messages. Some were from her team that she ignored but the others were from Shauna as she wanted the girls opinions on what she should wear. Ruby picked the first option and sent her response back to Shauna, then finished brushing her teeth.
After brushing her teeth and wiping herself off, Ruby put on her outfit and started doing her hair. She used her curling iron and brush and started the process, turning the TV on while doing so. There was not much to see as nothing really happened today but there were a few ads about certain sales going on at the mall. Ruby and the girls would have to check it out sometime this weekend, maybe invite Cana and the others.
Once Ruby was done with her hair, she put on her makeup and eyeliner, which didn't take very long as she was starting to get really good at it. Once that was done she put on the rest of her jewelry, took a look in the mirror and smiled. Then she grabbed her scroll and headed to Mira's room, it was kind of becoming a tradition for the girls to meet up before they went out. Whether it was to compliment each other or to take pictures as friends, they all enjoyed it.
Ruby walked to Mira's room and knocked on the door, and her friend answered it with a smile and let her in. Something that was also becoming a tradition apparently was Ruby being the last one to the gathering, but they did not seem to mind that much. After sharing a few laughs and taking some pictures, the girls were gathering their things and getting ready to meet the boys downstairs. All of them were looking forward to tonight, this week had been stressful for all of them.
"Well ladies, seeing as though all of looks are killing it we are definitely gonna turn some heads tonight!" Mira said proudly and the other three laughed.
"Damn right we will, I just hope they do not card us though because that could be a problem." Ruby said sheepishly but Akali just put her arm around her.
"What did we talk about Rose? CONFIDENCE. There is no way in hell any of us are going to be carded with our looks, you included." Akali said with a smile as Ruby smiled back.
"Akali is right, we are all going to get into the club, and we are going to have a good time! I only hope that the food is good because I really do not feel like stopping some place at midnight to get food." Shauna said honestly and the others agreed with her.
The girls then went downstairs to meet up with the boys who were waiting in the lobby. They got their and saw the guys waiting, looking bored out of their minds, letting them know that they waited long enough. The girls relieved the boys of their boredom and exchanged compliments, and even got someone to take a group photo of them. Once all that was done, they went into town to get to the new club, luckily it was in walking distance. Seth took hold of Ruby's hand in which she obliged, and they went to the party.
THE CLUB
Ruby and the other's got to the club pretty quickly and stood in line for a few minutes. When they got to the front, Ruby was surprised at the fact that none of them were asked to show their ID's, herself included! It seemed that Akali's prediction was correct, and the group entered the club to see a lot of people dancing and having a good time. The group then saw Cana and two friends of hers that they had not met but waved them over to her nevertheless and they went to greet her. Cana then hugged Ruby and the other girls all while saying hey to the guys.
"What's up everyone! Good to see you guys again, oh hey these are my friends from back home. Meet Erza and Juvia!" Cana said with a smile and the other two girls smiled as well.
"Hello everyone, my name is Erza Scarlet, it is nice to meet you!" The red head known as Erza said happily.
"Hey guys, I am Juvia Lockser, it's a pleasure." A girl with blue hair now known as Juvia said with a wave and the others introduced themselves to them.
"It's a pleasure to meet you guys too, let's grab a couple tables before they all fill up." Jago instructed and the others nodded.
The group got a couple of tables and began to hang out and order some food. While the food was getting ready Ruby, Cana, Mira and Cana's two friends hit the dance floor while Akali and Shauna were flirting with two guys that got their attention. The boys were at the table talking about guy stuff apparently and Sin ordered two hookah lamps for the table. It was fine though because in Atlas it was legal if you were seventeen and up.
The food was ready, so everyone went back to the table, and also engaged in smoking the hookah that Sin had ordered. It was Ruby's first-time trying hookah and she figured out how it worked, she liked it. There was no way in hell Ruby was drinking, so this was the next best thing. The group was delighted with the food even though they were skeptical at first, considering club food is never really that good. Once everyone was situated they began to engage in some small talk.
"I am glad that we were able to meet up, I needed a chance to get away from the Academy." Cana said with honesty and Mira nodded.
"Girl you have no idea how much we have been looking forward to this! If I had to read one more file, I was going to lose it." Mira groaned and the others just laughed.
"Speaking of which Cana, where are Minerva and Jenny?" Ruby asked.
"Minerva went out of town and Jenny went on a date with her boyfriend." Cana answered and Ruby nodded while continuing to eat.
"Hey…Ruby?" Some random guy asked coming up to her and Seth got defensive.
"Uh yeah? Who are you?" Ruby asked on guard as was everyone else, causing the guy to look nervous.
"You don't remember me? My name is Naoto Kuragane, I went to Signal Academy with you and Yang! Though I was in her grade, and now I go to Atlas Academy." The boy now known as Naoto said causing the tension to leave the group.
"Oh, I thought you looked kind of familiar, I have seen you in the halls in between classes and what not. You know this guy Ruby?" Cana asked and Ruby nodded.
"Yeah I remember him, he is one of the many guys that never called Yang back after the first date." Ruby said in a deadpan voice and Naoto just scratched his head sheepishly.
"Yeah that's me…so you really got into Beacon early huh? I heard that you and Yang are on a team together, what are you doing in Atlas?" Naoto asked causing Ruby to raise her eyebrow.
"Why so interested? I'm now remembering that back at Signal you and your crew thought I was annoying and childish." Ruby said with venom causing her friends to look angry at Naoto, Seth was giving him a death glare causing him to flinch.
"OK fine, we said some stuff about you but come on Ruby, look at where you are at now! Yeah back at Signal we were jealous of how good you were and sometimes yeah your positivity got annoying. Yet none of us got into Beacon while you did and your younger than us! Plus now you got you a huge makeover, the outfit, the hair, the figure-" Naoto tried to say but was interrupted by Ruby.
"Yeah, and my eyes which are up here by the way." Ruby said while pointing to her eyes, showing that she did not like Naoto checking her out.
"Oh, sorry…" Naoto tried to apologize but then Seth spoke up.
"You know I think your friends are somewhere over there." Seth said with authority pointing to the back, while Naoto widened his eyes and looked at Ruby who was leaning towards Seth.
"You heard him." Ruby said holding up the peace sign and Naoto sighed and walked away.
"Damn Ruby, you sure showed him who's boss!" Erza said with praise and Ruby winked at her.
"That's what boss girls like us have to do Erza! Though I have to give credit to this guy, it was so funny seeing Naoto be scared by you." Ruby said while laughing and the others laughed too, while Seth just smirked.
"It was the only outcome, I had to let him know who he was talking to." Seth said seriously and Ruby kissed him.
"So Ruby, you know that guy from your old school?" Akali asked and Ruby nodded.
"Yeah, he was one of the jocks of the school. He is a good fighter, and his friends are too, but they all had high opinions of themselves. They hated the fact that I did better than them in combat training since I was so young. He and Yang went on one date as well, but it must have not have ended to well because I didn't see him much after that." Ruby said and everyone nodded.
"Well, that's enough awkward situations for now, let's get back to partying!" Cana said happily and the others nodded.
The other's got up and hit the dance floor, some mingled with people they didn't know in order to make new friends. Ruby and Seth danced together and were taking videos of themselves on Seth's scroll, most of it being them reciting lyrics to the music that was playing. Speaking of which, one song came on that everyone knew, and Ruby, Cana and Akali led the charge in creating a mosh pit that everyone was a part of.
The fun continued with the boys having a dance off that Sin and Seth won, it still amazed Ruby how her boyfriend had so many moves. The girls then decided to take cool pictures for their social media pages, Cana and Ruby did one with the hookah and looked really beautiful with the poses they did. The same thing with the other girls and they all agreed that their pics were fantastic. Ruby then took a few more with Seth and then just enjoyed the night with her friends.
This is what she could have been doing with her team, especially because she didn't drink like they did. But all they saw was her age and saw her as an annoying little girl, but Ruby was fine with that. She had other friends she could have fun with, as they clearly liked her being around and wanted to hang out with her. In terms of her team though, Ruby would just have to train and go on missions with them since it was protocol, but after that they were on their own. Ruby did wonder why they kept trying to message her though, since they themselves called her an annoyance.
After a few hours of having fun, the group decided to head back to the hotel to get some sleep that they desperately needed. Ruby and the others bid farewell to Cana, Erza, and Juvia and they walked back to the hotel. Once they got there, the boys and the girls bid each other farewell, as Seth kissed Ruby goodnight and the girls teased her about it on the elevator, to which she ignored them. The girls said goodnight to each other going to their respective rooms and then immediately going to bed, letting sleep take them over after a long week.
