"They were here... Ozpin they were here!" Ironwood said as he slammed his fist on Ozpin's desk. "We are very much aware of that. Thank you, James," Glynda said as Ironwood pinched his forehead and Cypher silently stood next to where Ozpin was sitting.

"Fantastic, you're aware. Now are we going to do something about it or should we just stay the course and continue to ignore what's right in front of us?" Ironwood asked. Ozpin's desk then beeped, causing Ozpin to stand up. "Come in," he said as the elevator doors opened.

"Ah! Sorry, it took so long. Someone accidentally hit all the buttons on the elevator on the way up here. It wasn't me," Ruby said as she entered. "Who was it? Someone called "A man not me"?" Cypher asked with a smirk. Ruby only giggled nervously in reply.

"Thank you for coming, Ruby, how are you feeling?" Ozpin asked. "Okay, I guess. I'd feel better if my bad-guy catching record wasn't 0 for 3" Ruby replied with a slight chuckle. "We can't win them all," Cypher said with a soft smile and voice, calming Ruby down from the others' silent stares.

"Ruby, I feel it's appropriate to let you know that I think what you did last night is exactly what being a Huntress is all about. You recognised a threat, you took action, and you did the very best you could," Ironwood said as he placed a hand on Ruby's shoulder. "Thank you, sir," Ruby replied.

Cypher walked over to Ruby and offered her a small brown bag. She took it, "What is it?" she asked. "A little birdy told me you like cookies. I think you deserve some after last night's fiasco," Cypher said with a smile. Ruby smiled and took a cookie out of the bag before eating it.

"Now, the General here has already informed us of the events that, transpired last night. But now that you've rested we were wondering if you had anything to add," Ozpin said, getting Ruby's attention. "Was anyone else with her? Did she look familiar to you at all?" Glynda asked.

"I... I don't know," Ruby said with a sigh and shrug. "She was wearing a mask. And she never said anything to me, but I know she fought with glass. I don't think that was her Semblance though. Her clothing lit up whenever she attacked," she said.

"Save for the glass, that sounds like the woman I fought the night we met Ruby," Glynda said. "Embedding Dust into clothing is an age-old technique. It could have been anyone," Ironwood said.

"Wait, you think this girl is connected to Torchwick and the White Fang?" Ruby asked. Ozpin hummed, "It's possible. Doctor, do you have anything to add?" he asked.

Cypher took out his holographic tablet and pressed a button, causing a holographic video to pop up. It was a video of the CCT communication room last night.

"I looked through the security cameras," Cypher said. The video then played as the intruder from last night entered the room with the scroll she stole. The woman walked over to the receptionist's desk and sat down. She inserted the memory stick into the terminal before it sparked and a faint voice of "Ah ah ah, you didn't say the magic word" was heard.
