Team RNJR explains what happened while you were out, they also explain that you almost bled out because of what looked like an Ursa attack. How your shoulder was almost torn off completely.

"It's a miracle you're alive Y/n. You must have a lot of aura. Like Jaune does." You look at Jaune and notice his armor looks different.

"Jaune? Your armor? Is that what I think it is?"
He nods, teary eyed, he speaks up.

"It is, we found all of her gear up on the tower. Her weapon, shield, armor too."

"You had a blacksmith melt it all down and add it to yours." You say sadly.

"Not all of it..." You're confused.

"We still have Akoúo. We were keeping it for someone..." Ren looks at you, as does Nora, Ruby and Jaune.

"You... what?"

"We're saying we want to give you her shield Y/n." You're speechless.

"I... Are you serious?" You look at everyone, ending on Jaune.

"We are." Ren leaves the room and retrieves the shield of your fallen friend. You're crying now.

"I'm so sorry Pyrrha..." Ruby is the first one up, she's embracing you.
"Let it out Y/n. It's okay." She's crying with you now, as are the rest of team RNJR.

"I'm sorry I left so soon. I just didn't know what to do, I needed to know why she died. Why SHE had to die..." She wiping her tears away, and helps you up. You look at her.

"When did you grow up so quickly?"

"I had good role models." She looks at her friends.

Hours later

All five of you hear a knock on the door. Jaune answers it.

"Hello." A young boy says.

"Hi, can we help you?" The boy pauses for a minute before answering someone.

"Shut up I'm getting there..." You all look confused, the boy looks at Ruby.
"You... have silver eyes." Team RNJR put their guards up. You're confused by the statement.

"Who's asking?" Nora gets in a stance in front of Ruby. Out of nowhere...
"I FoUnd HIM!" Qrow steps up to the door. Ruby sees Qrow and sees that he's stumbling all over the place.

"Uncle Qrow, have you been drinking again?"

"Maaaaybeeee..." He chuckles. The young boy comes inside with Qrow.

"Go ahead and tell them everything." Qrow plops face first onto the couch.

"Who are you?" Ruby asks.

"Well, my name is Oscar Pine..."

"Wait for iiiiittt..." Qrow drunkenly says.

"But you all may know me as Professor Ozpin?" Everyone's jaw hits the floor.

"Professor... Ozpin?" You ask. Qrow chuckles loudly.

"I DiD IT!" He falls off of the couch.

"Wait so... you're Professor Ozpin?" Ren asks the young man.

"Yes?" He says doubtfully.

"Tell you kids what. We all get some rest and talk about this tomorrow. Sound like a plan? Good."

Team RNJR (JNRR?) all decide that's for the best and go to bed, so does Qrow, who's out on the couch, Oscar (Ozpin?) takes the second couch.

You pick up Akoúo and familiarize yourself with it. You then hold it with both hands, as tears begin to fall again, this time, making a distinct "ting" as they hit the shield.

"I won't let you down..."
