Amber is waiting down in the kitchen of her home, jittery and excited as ever. Yang was with her watching her bouncy up and down like a child on Christmas. Yang laughs to herself when Amber checks the clocks for about the fourth time in about three minutes. Yang laughed again and walked over to her daughter.
Amber: If he's always rushing people then why isn't he here first!
Yang: Sweetie. Calm down. Your father needs to get everything.
Amber: I know, I know! I'm just jazzed about this! Got my semblance, passed my mid-terms, and just super, SUPER, hyped!
Yang laughed again and guided Amber back to her table and sat her down.
Yang: So, aside from that, still...still working on that case for your father?
Amber: Wh-what case?
Yang: Signal.
Amber froze and stopped talking. Her mother had known all about her little escapades. Yang was already giving Amber a stern glare ahead. Amber raises her arms, almost like she was just caught in a murder.
Yang: Let it go.
Amber: I can't. Same reason Stark couldn't. It's just my blood Mom. I can't stop that.
Yang: Amber...I'm telling you to stop this, not as a huntress, but as a mother. YOUR mother. This is not a good idea at all.
Amber: But didn't you and Dad do the exact same thing when you were-
Yang: That's why we're telling you, it's not a good idea!
Amber: Mom...!
Yang: I will take your scroll away if it means keeping you from this!
Amber stopped and just backed up. She looks at her mother in a bit of shock.
Amber: What are you hiding?
Yang: Hiding something that can and will kill you! Amber...you need to understand that someone these guys...it's...Amber-
Amber: Mom...I get it, but I'm not a little kid anymore.
Yang: Yes. You are a kid. But that shouldn't oppose you from making decisions. Just...know what you can be up against, ok?
Amber: Ok...
Fred then walked into the room and kissed Yang's check.
Fred: Ready, Sweatpea?
Amber: Ready.
Fred ushered Amber out the door.
Amber: See you, Mom!
Yang: Bye, Sweetie! And remember what we talked about!
Fred closes the door and he and Amber walk to his car.
Fred: What were you two talking about?
Amber: Oh, nothing of note.
Fred shrugged it off and the two of them drove off to Signal.

Fred and Amber have arrived at Signal and the rest of Class Scorch are all in attendance and laughing and having fun with everyone else. Amber was talking with the rest of the gang and telling them about the conversation with her mother.
Sapphire: See? Even your mom agrees!
Amber: I know! But I feel like I'm close to something.
Everyone in the group just groans in disappointment.
