What makes you think I shouldn't take her life-Jaune to Nora. Because Pyrrha wouldn't have wanted you to do this.-Nora to Jaune

Nora's POV

Jaune's sword point was on the girl's neck causing blood to flow. If I didn't stop him he would go down the same path Ruby's brother went down.  Stopping him now is top priority.

"Jaune stop!" I yell as I knock the sword from his hand with a kick his sword clattered across the floor near the wall were a conscious Ruby was. Emerald started to gasp and hold her neck as air flowed back in blood flowing from wound.

"Nora why did you stop me? What makes you think I shouldn't take her life?" Jaune's voice was on the edge of hatred and tears. He was obviously torn on what to do.

"Because Pyrrha wouldn't wanted you to do this." I tore my shirt in two to press against her neck. My body cold as my pink and white bra was exposed to Jaune who looked away.

Jaune's face was unreadable. "Pick up Ruby Jaune. I will pick the girl up and go to the nurse's office." Gripping Ruby's skirt to grip underneath her stomach to pick her up on my shoulder. Jaune surprisingly did as I said.

......

Blake's POV

Weiss paced around the nurse's office as the nurse was knocked out in a corner with Ruby missing from the room. I felt something was wrong as I awoke in the middle of the night with my power flowing in front of me forming words.

Spelling out N-U-R-S-E-'-S O-F-F-I-C-E  as it glowed a deep emerald color.

 The door bursting open with a shirtless Nora with Ruby on her shoulder. Ruby was sweating abnormally as she was laid on the bed. Her body seemed to be wracked in pain.

As I thought we were done Jaune brought in a tan skinned green haired girl her neck was stained red as blowed flowed from what I assumed was Nora's shirt.

"What did you do to Ruby?" Weiss ran as she held myrtenaster in her hand aimed at Emerald's throat.

"I..I injected her with a serum that will destroy her semblance. The only way to heal her is for Blake to give blood toward Ruby's mouth." Emerald's voice was hoarse as she passed out.

"Weiss should I believe her?" I asked my body tensed and ready as I held Gamble shroud at the ready to slice into my palm.

"We have no choice." Weiss turned her head as I sliced into my hand bringing my blood into Ruby's mouth. Slowly the drops of blood fell into her mouth as she swallowed. Her sweating stopped and she started to sleep soundly.

I felt my pain subside as my skin stitched itself together in my palm as the green light of spring healed my wounds. On a whim I aimed some of my power at Ruby's head to see if she would heal of her concussion.

I would have to wait to morning to see the results.
