3rd Person P.O.V

Ruby: I'm getting married!

Ruby announced happily while presenting the silver ring with a red gem around her ring finger. Silence took over the hallway as the two teams froze along with the passing students who overheard her.

Not expecting the silence, Ruby nervously put down her hand and grabbed the ends of her skirt while fidgeting in her place. She looked at her sister in the eyes only to see her having a murderous look making team JNPR back away.

Yang: I'll kill him...

Weiss: You're WHAT?!

Blake: O-oh... wow... I didn't expect this.

Yang cracked her knuckles and began walking towards the courtyard but Ruby blocked her path.

Yang: Ruby, Get out of the way! How dare that bastard elope with my sister!!!

Ruby: W-wait stop! stop!

Yang glared at Ruby making the latter squeak in fear.

Yang: Tell me why Ruby! Tell me why the hell should I stop?!

Ruby: B-Because.... Because...

Yang: Because What?!!

Ruby steeled herself and responded so loud, her voice echoed throughout the hallway.

Ruby: BECAUSE I'M THE ONE WHO PROPOSED!!!

In an instant, Yang's eyes turned back to it's normal color as tears began welling up in her eyes. Raising an arm, desperately reaching out to her younger half-sister.

Yang: You...?

Ruby: Yes. I'm the one who proposed.

Tears slowly flowed from Yang's eyes as she put her hands on Ruby's shoulders.

Yang: Ruby, Do you have any idea on what you just did?

Weiss: Getting married is a very and I mean VERY big deal.

Blake: Things like these must be taken responsibly.

Ruby: I know! Guys! I'm aware of what I'm doing, and this is my choice. Aren't you supposed to be happy for me?

Ruby began to cry. Upon seeing this, Pyrrha approached from behind the team and gave Ruby a gentle hug.

Pyrrha: Ruby, We may not be related in any way, but know that you're as precious as a family to us. If you decided by yourself to proceed to the next big part of your life, then that's fine. But tell us... do you really want this?

Ruby sniffled and wiped her tears before nodding.

Ruby: Mhm...

Pyrrha smiled and rubbed Ruby's back. The gentle touch reminds her of you soothing her.

Pyrrha: Then I'll support you all the way through.

The rest of team JNPR surrounded her and showed their support.

Jaune: Me too. Even if that's the case, nothing's gonna change between all of us right?

Ren: I agree with Jaune.

Nora: Yeah!

Ruby: Thanks guys.

Yang felt guilty and decided to apologise for her reaction.

Yang: Hey, sis... I'm sorry. It's just-

Yang was interrupted by a hug.

Ruby: It's okay. I know you were just worried for me.
