Arriving in front of the store, Kyra and Ruby walk in, and Kyra greets the Teller, "Hi old man."
"Ah it's you two young ladies again, nice hood, it matches the red girl." The Teller says, giving a wave to the young girls before going back to sorting his dust crystals.
"Ruby wanna listen to music today?" Kyra asks with a raised brow, she held up her own blue headset and shook it.
"Sure." Ruby says, heading towards the back of the store to try on different headphones, and
sample music, while Kyra subtly copies some of the songs like *This will be the day, When it falls, Ignite, I’m the One* in general, all the good battle songs she could find.

First person POV
A few minutes later, Ruby and I are just enjoying each other's company, not really needing to talk, we are suddenly tapped on the shoulder.
"Huh?" Ruby says, while I remain silent, trying to keep the smile off my face, Ruby is going to come to beacon.
Ruby and I take our headphones off, turning enough to look behind us and at the man standing there.
"Yes?" Ruby asked with confusion, staring at the dapper dressed man who interrupted the nice evening.
"I said put your hands in the air, now! Both of you!" The henchman yells at me and Ruby.
"Are you... robbing us?" I asked, my brow raised as I grabbed the magazine with truth from Fullmetal Alchemist on the cover with my tail.
"Yes!" The henchman says again, taking a single step forward.
"Ohh." Ruby says, a little amused.
I look towards Ruby, "you wanna handle it?" I ask her.
"Hey!" The henchman begins-
"Hyah!" Ruby yells, and kicks the guy out the window; The glass shattering as the man crashed through it.
'At least she didn't jump out of it to show off.'
At this point, all of the men and Roman look towards the back of the store and at me and Ruby.
Ruby starts running, jumps and turns 180 in the air and backflips out of the broken window immediately after her feet touch the ground again.
Where am I, you may ask? Well, of course I'm recording this on my Scroll.
All of the henchmen make it over to the window, and look at the girl as she takes out Crescent Rose.
Flipping the scythe around, Ruby stabs the point into the road, with the gun barrel pointing towards the goons in the window.
"Okayyy... Get her!" Roman says, sending the henchmen out the door, which Ruby gets rid of them in probably the most showoff way possible.
The last guy gets flung away, landing right at Roman Torchwick's feet.
"Well, you guys were worth every cent. Truly you were." Torchwick sarcastically comments, taking his cigar out of his mouth.
"Well, Red," Torchwick begins but is cut off by Ruby.
"The cookie wizard!" Ruby shouts, pointing at him in excitement and with a beaming smile.
Roman nearly falls over and sighs.
"Pfft" laughing is heard coming from the door, or more specifically, me; as I hold onto my stomach and use the door frame to support myself.
Roman shoots at Ruby's feet, causing a big flash, and making her have to dodge by jumping up, assisted by Crescent Rose.

A moment later, Ruby lands, and looks around to see where he went, catching sight of him climbing up the ladder.
"Go after him." I say, gesturing to where he ran off as I wipe a tear from my eye.
"Okay sis!" Ruby runs towards the building, launching herself up with her Crescent Rose.
"Old man, are you good?" I ask him, helping him up since he fell from the earlier flash.
"Yes, thank you." He says, waving me off as he holds onto the counter.
"Am I good to leave you here and follow them?" I ask, feet already moving towards the door and to the fight.
"Uh Huh." He says in kind, giving me a small nod.
"Great!" I say with a smile and thumbs up, and begin to run after Ruby.
I get to the roof just in time to see Glynda Goodwitch block a Burn explosion, the purple spinning shield made from her semblance disappearing just as fast as I got here.
With a quick look at my Pip-Boy, I pull out a mini nuke launcher, taking a knee I aim my shot/
"Heads up!" I shout, firing a mini nuke, just as Cinder shows herself. Shadowed by the shade in the
She barely manages to block the football sized mini nuke, unfortunately for her, it was a little too close to the VTOL craft, causing the electronics to short out from the electromagnetic pulse the small nuclear detonation gave off, which causes the craft to fly off unstably and crash a few blocks away, followed by another explosion.
"Awesome! High five sis!" I yell, and high-five Ruby with a small jump.
"You're a Huntress." Ruby turns and says towards Glynda, who doesn’t look happy.
"Can I have your autograph?" Ruby asks, squealing with joy. She held her arms close to her chest with closed fists.
"I don't like that look." I said.
----------------------------------------
In an interrogation room at the police station.
"I hope you two realize that your actions tonight will not be taken lightly, young ladies, you put yourselves and others in great danger." Glynda is talking, pacing around the room.
"They started it!" Ruby shouts unhappily.
'Just keep quiet so Ruby can go to beacon.'
"If it were up to me, you two would be sent home... with a pat on the back… and a slap on the wrist." She says swinging around her wand? Where did she buy that thing? Does she have those kinds of hobbies?
"But... there is someone here who would like to meet you two." She says, right as good old Ozpin walks in with a plate of cookies.
“Ruby Rose... you have silver eyes." Ozpin says, glancing at Kyra, and seeing if he gets to do bad cop good cop.
"Um… thanks?" Ruby says, a little confused.
"So! Where did you learn to do this?" Ozpin asks, putting a scroll on the table that has a video of Ruby fighting all of Roman’s men, playing.
'I may have posted it on this world's internet.'
"S-signal academy, who recorded that?" Ruby says, then looks towards her sister, who has a sheepish grin.
"They taught you to use one of the most dangerous weapons from the previous era at Signal Academy?" Ozpin asks, knowing the girl sitting next to Ruby has designed the most dangerous weapons of this era.
"One teacher in particular." Ruby says, not wanting to give Qrow up.
"I see..." Ozpin says, setting down the plate of cookies he’s been holding, and the two girls are like little cookie monsters, the plate is emptied in seconds.
"It's just that I've only seen one other scythe wielder of that skill before..." he pauses, noticing the plate was emptied way too fast.
"A dusty old crow" Ozpin finishes
"Mmm! Thash muh unkul." Ruby spoke with food in her mouth, then after swallowing, "Sorry, that's my Uncle Qrow!" Ruby says happily. "He's a teacher at Signal."
"Wait, he's a teacher there? He's only been teaching me at home?" Kyra asked with a raised brow to her sister.
"Oh, due to you going to Beacon later this year, he probably decided to not take you to Signal." Ozpin says, adjusting his glasses with a flash of light.
"Ah, that makes sense." Kyra said as she slammed a fist into a palm in understanding.
"So, Ruby, what is an adorable girl such as yourself doing at a school designed to train warriors?" Ozpin asked with a small head tilt.
"Well... I want to be a huntress and help people." Ruby says, having her proper answer from when Kyra asked her earlier this year.
"I have 2 more years left at Signal, then I'm going to apply to beacon, see my two sisters are starting there this year." Ruby started to drone on and on.
"Pfft- Sorry, that awkward silence got me." Kyra said.
"Do you know who I am?" Ozpin asked.
"You're Professor Ozpin, the headmaster at beacon." Ruby said.
"Hello," Ozpin says.
"Nice to meet you." Ruby replies with a bright smile.
"You want to come to my school?" Ozpin asks Ruby.
"More than anything." Ruby replies.
"More than cookies?" Kyra asks.
"Uhhh... don't ask me that again." Ruby says.
Ozpin looked to Glynda, who only gave a huff of disapproval before turning back to Kyra and Ruby.
"Well, okay." Ozpin says, accepting Ruby to beacon.
