Weiss knocks at the door and Whitley opens it after a few more knocks

He sees you and Weiss and frowns while putting his hands on his hips

Whitley: Oh you've picked a fine time to--*gasp*

Weiss pointed her weapon at him, not wanting to hear any of his complaints

Weiss: Not another word. We're coming in

He steps away and you all enter

You nod at him while passing and he seems quite confused bug quickly get a hold of himself

Whitley: Things are already bad enough after what you did to father, now you want us to harbor fugitives too? Our family has a reputation

Blake: That's what you're worried about? Your reputation?

"I'm just saying that we've already lost all the house staff, and mother locked herself in her room"

Weiss: Maybe you haven't figured out what's going Whitley, but we're busy trying to save Atlas

Ruby: Look. Our friend is hurt, we just need a place to lay low while she rests and then we'll be out of your way

Whitley, looking down: *sigh* Fine... What do you expect me to do then?

Weiss: Go to your room

Whitley sighs and walks away

You follow May carrying Nora and Weiss as Ruby notices she can't call Yang, meaning she's out of town

After some time caring for Nora, you all receive a emergency broadcast on your scrolls

You see Ruby appearing on your screen

Weiss: It worked!

Ruby: Um, uh. Hi. My name is Ruby Rose. I'm a Huntress. And if we've done everything right, then I'm talking to all of Remnant right now. Dr. Polendina can explain more later, but right now you all need to know that the Kingdom of Atlas is under attack. Things are dire and we need help. But please try not to panic. This isn't some new enemy or invading kingdom. This is a force we've faced before. For centuries. Salem. The White Fang, Atlesian Drones, even the Grimm themselves have all been controlled and manipulated by her, in order to tear down the Huntsman Academies.

You try to take the opportunity of having global communications up to send one or two messages but your scroll just doesn't want to let you quit the broadcast

Okay that's stupid. We could've been able to warn so many friends...

"I know the idea of the Maidens and Relics seems... Well... Crazy. But I promise professor Goodwitch of Beacon and headmaster Theodor of Shade can verify all of this. They might even be able to organize a way to fight back! But... Sadly... General Ironwood can no longer be trusted..."

I was against that part. Telling this is of no use

"We didn't have time to prepare for Salem. But now you do! Just because she can't be destroyed, doesn't mean she can't be beaten. If she really was unstoppable, she wouldn't have acted with such caution until now. She knows we're a threat. So even if we-- even if Atlas falls, you can't give up. I hope Amity tower will help bring us all together, because in the end that's how we'll wi--!"

The jam just got cut and communications are back down

Ruby: What happened!?

y/n: Seems like someone didn't like your little speech...

Honestly... It was bad

Very bad

Weiss: But how?!
