Weiss: "She's here!"

An excited Weiss Schnee squealed as she was running towards the courtyard of Beacon Academy, with a confused Ruby Rose close behind. After the match between Teams SSSN and NDGO concluded, with the team of all boys winning, Weiss had spotted an Atlesian Airship with the Schnee logo flying overhead with a couple of banners attached to its wing-like binders. So, in a fit of excitement, she was going to meet the occupant of that ship and Ruby, being her self-proclaimed best friend, wanted to know what she was getting excited about.

Ruby: "Weiss, what is the big deal!? Who is it!? Who is she!?"

Weiss: "Winter!"

Ruby: "Huh?" She looked at the landed ship only to see a woman who looked like an adult version of Weiss step out of it. Seeing the resemblance, Ruby instantly caught onto what was happening and was completely blown away. "Wait... your sister?"

Ace: "Huh... Well, that's unexpected..." Ruby turned around and spotted her elder cousin, Ace walking towards her with the black-haired girl he met, Nea following behind him closely with a cone of Neapolitan Ice-Cream in her hand.

Ruby: "Ace! Where have you been!?"

Ace: "Sorry for being late, Rubes. I was occupied with a certain someone who I had to pry away from the Ice-Cream stands..." He deadpanned and looked towards Nea who was casually licking the Neapolitan Ice-Cream in her hands. She then looked back at him before sticking her tongue out at him playfully. He rolled his eyes before looking forwards. Before Ruby could even ask, Weiss took off again towards her sister.

Weiss: "Winter!" Ruby ran after her while Ace watched with Nea going back to focus on her Ice-Cream. The elder sister, Winter Schnee turned around, two Atlesian Knights standing to attention by her sides as she watched Weiss and Ruby approach her.

Weiss: "Winter! Winter! I'm so happy to see you! Oh... U-Um... Your presence honors us." She tried acting formally but seemed to be failing. Winter slowly walked up to us, while looking at her surroundings.

Winter: "Beacon... It's been a long time. The air feels... different."

Ruby: "I mean, it is fall... so eh, it's probably colder." Weiss immediately punched the argent-eyed girl's shoulder, causing her to collapse to the ground, while her happy smile remained on her face.

Weiss: "So, what are you doing here?"

Winter: "Classified."

Weiss: "Oh right, well how long are you staying?"

Winter: "Classified."

Weiss: "...Of course." There was an awkward silence. Ruby was practically dying from this as she tried to make some form of comment.

Ruby: "Well, this is nice... I think." Then Weiss began again, her smile growing even more.

Weiss: "Oh you're going to love it here! I know you travel a lot, but so much of Beacon is different from Atlas, Vale too! The government and school are completely separate! Can you believe it!? I-"
