Somewhere in the City of Vale, 8:30 pm

Evie was casually walking on the street, until suddenly, she took a sharp turn into an ally way. There was a man with a big red top hat waiting for her.

Red hat: Ah, Miss. Frye! It's good to see you again.

Evie: Mr. Topping, punctual as always. I presume you have the information I need?

Topping: Of course! However the payment will be a bit different today.

Evie: How so?

Topping: Well, ever since you and your friends stopped the White Fang from robbing the Schnee Dust Company dust supplies, we had a significantly more clients. Your Brotherhood, the Templar Order even other... businessman are interested in information we can provide.

Evie: Happy to hear it. What do you want from me then?

Topping: Simple. There is a White Fang meeting tonight. I won't you cause more chaos there. It could double our clientele. What do you say? 

Evie: Consider it done.

The two shook their hands.

Topping: Pleasure doing business with you Miss Frye. Now, what do you want to know?

Evie: Tell what you know about Roman Torchwick, and his business with the Fang.

Meanwhile, in the other part of the City of Vale, Ruby came out of the shock and had quite a few questions for Penny.

Ruby: Penny, I-I don't understand...

Penny: Most girls are born, but I was made. I'm the world's first synthetic person capable of generating an Aura. I'm not real...

Ruby: Of course you are. You think just because you've got nuts and bolts instead of squishy guts makes you any less real than me?

Penny:  I don't... um... You're... taking this extraordinarily well.

Ruby: You're not like those things we saw back there. You've got a heart, and a soul. I can feel it!

Penny: Oooh... oh, Ruby. You're the best friend anyone could have!

She hugged Ruby and shaked her back and fourth.

Ruby: I can see why your father would want to protect such a delicate flower!

Penny released Ruby.

Penny: Oh, he's very sweet! My father's the one that built me! I'm sure you would love him!

Ruby: Wow, He built you all by himself?

Penny: Well, almost! He had some help from Mr. Ironwood.

Ruby: The General?! Wait... Is that why those soldiers were after you?
