The opening cuts to a shot of Beacon Academy the next day following the Beacon Dance, then cuts to inside Ozpin's office, with General James Ironwood and Glynda Goodwitch keeping the headmaster company.

Ironwood: They were here... (raising his voice) Ozpin, they were here!

Ironwood angrily slams his fist against Ozpin's desk.

Glynda: We're very much aware of that! Thank you, 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?!

An alert sound plays, signifying that someone has arrived on the elevator.

Ozpin: Come in.

Ruby and (Y/N) steps out and into the room.

Ruby: Sorry it took so long. Someone accidentally hit all the buttons on the elevator on the way up here.

(Y/N): (glares at Ruby) Wonder who it is.....

Ruby laughs nervously.

Ozpin: Thank you for coming, Ruby and (Y/N). How are you two feeling?

(Y/N): You know me....

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

Everyone stares silently.

(Y/N): *whistles* Tough crowd...

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 of the events that... transpired last night, but now that you two have rested, we were wondering if you two had anything to add.

Glynda: Was anyone else with her? Did she look familiar 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.

(Y/N): But I doubt that it was her Semblance. Her clothing lit up whenever she attacked.

Glynda: Save for the glass, that sounds like the woman I fought the night we met these two.

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

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

Ozpin: It's possible. 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.

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. As for you (Y/N).

(Y/N): Yeah?

Ozpin: I want you to stay here for a moment.

(Y/N) and Ruby looks at each other then turns back to Ozpin.

(Y/N): Whatever you say.

Ozpin: Thank you again, Ruby.

Ruby: (leaving) Any time.
