Two sisters are seen entering a dark house, one with black hair with drips of red. She was wearing a black long sleeve dress with a red hooded cape held together by cross shaped pins. The other girl, clearly the oldest of the two, was wearing a tan jacket that bears her midriff and mini shorts covered by a brown belt. The two girls called out for their mothers.
Ruby:Mom?!
Ruby yelled.
Yang:Mom?!
After Yang called out her mom, the two walked until they were caught by a figure. The lights then were activated as the figure revealed herself.
Summer:Hello, my little huntresses!
Summer said as she kissed both girls, causing them to giggle.
Raven:Hey there, little fighters!
Raven said as she was seen with food on the table. The girls were seen eating the food as celebration for stopping a White Fang operation and Ozpin, the headmaster of Beacon Academy, accepting them into Beacon early.
Summer:We're so proud of you girls! You've made a really big accomplishment in your lives!
Ruby:"mouthful" Thanks mom. You know, I didn't think we'd get into Beacon that early because of what we did.
Raven:Hey, you guys should be lucky. Even I almost didn't get into Beacon at your age.
Yang:"mouthful" We know. You told us once, remember mom.
Raven:And remember that well.
Ruby and Yang:"mouthful" We will!
The girls said in unison after Ruby took another bite of her gourmet cookie and Yang was still chewing her cheesecake bite.
Summer:Ruby, Yang, could you two please speak without your mouths full? You guys will choke.
Raven:Sum, it's ok. They're not gonna choke.
Summer:Well, maybe not in your case. But, you never know.
After the girls finished their food, Ruby started talking.
Ruby:Anyways, we're really excited!
Yang:Yeah, we're gonna be part of the last generation of hunters and huntresses!
Raven:Yep, enjoy it while you can girls.
Summer:Yeah, I just can't believe my babies are going tomorrow.
Summer then sniffles as she turned to Raven.
Summer:Raven, will you please hug me, my wife of eight years?
Raven:"sighs" Summer, you knew this day would come.
Raven said as she hugged Summer.
Summer:I know. I just don't want my babies to leave me yet.
Ruby:We'll call you once a week. And, you can always visit us if you guys have time and vice versa.
Yang:Yeah, plus you have mom, mom. As well as like uncle Qrow and uncle Tai.
Summer:Come here, my angles.
The sisters did what Summer said as the family hugged.
Summer:I love you girls.
Raven:Me too. We're very proud of you two. Never forget that.
Ruby and Yang:Thank you moms.
The family of girls were seen the next day outside their home.
Ruby:Well, this is the day.
Summer:Yep. I'm so excited for you.
Ruby:I promise I'll do my best, mom.
Summer:Just know to work hard, make friends, and be yourself.
The two of them then hugged as they were clearly trying not to cry, exchanging sniffles here and there. Raven and Yang, meanwhile, were having a modest conversation.
Raven:Just promise to try your very very best on your assignments and classes, ask for help when you need it, and be nice to others but not too nice. Understand?
Yang:Yep. Also, try to look out for Ruby and be myself.
Raven:Took the words right out of my mouth, fire dragon.
Raven then embraced Yang passionately, Yang doing the same.
Yang:I'll make you proud, mom.
Raven:You already have, Yang.
Raven and Yang brought their faces to each other's, Raven kissing her daughter's forehead as they did so.
Raven:Your gonna be great, Yang. No matter what happens, I'll always love you for who you are and I'll be proud of you no matter what.
Yang:Thank you, mom.
Yang then found Raven wiping a tear from her face as they continued hugging for a while before they unlocked.
Raven:Well, this is goodbye.
Yang:Yeah. Goodbye, I guess.
After the girls left for Beacon, the women were seen on the couch talking, only hours after their emotional goodbye to their daughters.
Raven:Look, it's not that bad. They're gonna be fine. I completely trust them and they're gonna have the greatest times of their lives.
Summer:I really hope so. I just don't want them to end up like us.
Raven:They won't, Sum. I know so. We raised them right and we loved them to the best of our abilities. Even though we had some bumps in the road, we turned out alright.
Summer:Ya know, I wonder how you got so wise.
Raven:I guess after I disbanded my tribe, and after we killed Salem, I've found myself. Even though I had some doubts, I'm happy that I didn't leave you guys.
Summer:Me too. We all are. I love you, Raven.
Raven:Love you too, Sum.
The two then kissed for a short while before they broke off and headed off to their room, wanting to enjoy their shared lives together as happily as they can.
