*Ozpin's Office.*

Ironwood: They were here. Ozpin, they were here!

(Y/N): We get it, James. They were here.

Glynda: Yes, thank you. We're aware that they were here, James.

Ironwood: 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?!

(Y/N): Ruby's here.

An alert sound plays, signifying that Ruby has arrived.

Ozpin: Come in.

Ruby: Sorry it took so long. Someone accidentally hit all the buttons on the elevator on the way up. It wasn't me.

(Y/N): Really?

Ruby: Wasn't me.

Ozpin: Thank you for coming, Ruby. How are you feeling?

Ruby: Okay, I guess. I'd feel better if my bad-guy-catching record wasn't O-for-three.

Everyone is silent except for (Y/N), who chuckles.

(Y/N): What?

Ironwood: 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 recognized a threat. You took action. And you did the very best you could.

Ruby: Thank you, sir.

Ozpin: 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.

Glynda: Was anyone else with her? Did she look familiar to you at all?

Ruby: I... I don't know. 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.

(Y/N): I noticed that she can manipulate the glass into any shape she wants.

Glynda: She sounds like the woman I fought when we met Ruby.

Ironwood: Embedding Dust into clothing is an age-old technique. It could have been anyone.

(Y/N): It could be her semblance too.

Ruby: Wait. You think this girl is connected to Torchwick and the White Fang?

(Y/N): It's possible, Rubes.

Ozpin: But we still lack the required evidence to link the two together.

Ruby: Actually, I... I think I remember her saying something about a hideout, or something, in the southeast. Just outside the Kingdom.

(Y/N) has a small smile on his face when Ruby mentioned the location of the hideout.

Ozpin: Interesting.

Glynda: I thought you said the intruder never—

Ozpin: Thank you for your cooperation, Ruby. Why don't you go and spend some time with your team? You have a big day ahead of you.

Ruby: Anytime.

Ozpin: And Miss Rose, please try and be ... discreet about this matter.

Ruby: Yes sir. I'll see you later, dad!

(Y/N): Bye, Rubes.

Ruby: Love ya!

(Y/N): Heh, love you too.
