RWBY Volume 3: When It All Falls Down (Ruby Rose x Male OC)

CHAPTER 5 - A: Hello again, Master

Lloyd's POV

We went back to Beacon Academy's courtyard at dusk, with Weiss, Ruby, and I, running up the main avenue towards the docking bays. We then stop as Ruby catches her breath.

Ruby: "Weiss! What is the big deal!? Who is it? Who is she!?"

as Weiss stops, she smiles at the sight of someone I'm very familiar with...

Weiss: "Winter."

Lloyd: "Your sister?"

I then turn back to where the airship had landed, watching Winter Schnee, escorted by crimson-colored Atlas Soldiers and Atlesean Knight-200's as she exits her airship.

Weiss: *cups mouth* "Winter!" 

Weiss, Ruby and I chased after her, then run up to the elder Schnee as she turns to see us.

Weiss: "Winter! I'm so happy to see you! Oh..." *suddenly curtsies* "Your presence honors us."

Winter then looks around as she approaches towards us

Winter:  "Beacon... It's been a long time. The air feels... different."

Ruby: "I mean it is fall, so, eh, it's probably colder."

Weiss punches Ruby in the shoulder, causing Ruby to gasp in pain before turning back to her sibling

Weiss:  "So, what are you doing here?"

Winter: "Classified."

Weiss: "Oh, right. Well, how long are you staying?"

Winter: "Classified."

Weiss: "Of course." *nods and smiles in understanding*

Ruby: "Well... this is nice... I think."

Lloyd: "I guess."

Weiss:  "You're going to love it here! I know you travel a lot, but so much of Beacon is different from Atlas!" *discreetly whispers*  "Vale too. The government and school are completely separate! Can you believe it!? I-"

Winter: "I'm more than familiar with how this kingdom handles its... bureaucracy. That is not why I came."

Weiss: "Right! I'm sorry!"

Winter: "Nor did I come here to watch my own blood fail so miserably in battle. But it appears that I have no choice in the matter."

Weiss looked puzzled by Winter's response.

Weiss: "But, we won!"

Winter: "Only a novice would refer to that as a victory. I counted at least three strikes missed."

Winter then turns to her security.

Winter: "Leave us."

The AK-200s obey, walking two steps backward into formation as she sighs and smiles a little more warmly at Weiss.

Lloyd: "That's so cool."

Ruby: "Yep."

Winter: "How have you been?"

Weiss: "Oh, splendid! Thank you for asking. I'm actually in the very top ranking of our sparring class! And the rest of my studies are going wonderfully, too! I'm-"

Weiss was cut off as Winter's hand slaps her, leaving a massive bump on her head.

Winter: "Silence, you boob! I don't recall asking about your ranking, I'm asking how you've been. Are you eating properly? Have you taken up any hobbies? Are you making new friends?"
