"Ok so he just jinxed us," yang said

"You don't believe in that stuff do you," Weiss said

"We have magic two gods and an immortal being and a talking Grimm if anything that's normal Weiss" Blake said

"Yeah I know," Weiss  said

Penny motions for the group to follow her, and they discreetly squeeze past the soldiers, headed for the elevator door.

Soldier 2: I just hope the C.O. can get us some answers soon, or-

On the way out, Nora flashes a mischievous grin and swipes her hand over the elevator controls, tapping the button for every floor. The pair of soldiers are now alone in the elevator. Soldier 1 glances at the elevator controls, then do a double take.

Soldier 1: Huh?

"Nora you could have given our position away," Weiss said

"It was worth it and they probably think it's a ghost anyway," Nora said

"Well at least we don't have to deal with them," ruby said

"Don't try to make what she did look good ruby" Weiss said

The doors to the elevator close again. The group makes its way down a wide corridor to a large locked door with "03" in large print on it. Penny stops by a nearby control panel and extends her index finger. The tip swivels out to reveal a connector plug, and Ruby's eyes grow wide.

Ruby: Cool.

Penny interfaces with the control panel, and the attached handprint scanner flashes green. A hologram display pops up, showing Dr Pietro Polendina's credentials.

Computer: Welcome back, Doctor Polendina.

"You can do that?" Ruby asked penny

"Yes," Penny said showing ruby

"I wonder what else she can do," yang said

"That odd I would've thought of locking dr polendina out of our system," ironwood said

"Well I think you got bigger problems than an old man with a machine that walks for him casually strolling around the military base," zen said

"Yes you're right but that's not good if I or the ace ops see that they will know that they're planning something," ironwood said

"Well that's not good hopefully we'll get out before that happens," ruby said

The door slides open with a whoosh, and the group steps through.

May: Alright, where to next, Penny?

Penny: Right through central command!

A door to the right opens to reveal a bustling workplace filled with digital workstations, holographic maps, and Atlesian officials and clerks.

Weiss: Of course.

May: I can't maneuver us through all that.

"Great how are we going to get through all of that," Weiss said

"Well ruby is capable of doing it," Penny said

"Huh I'm oh yeah my semblance," ruby said

"Yep now we will see what ruby's semblance is capable of," zen said

Penny: Do not worry, Ruby is capable of travelling at an extreme velocity from one point to another by breaking herself down to her molecular components, thus negating her mass and then reassembling them at the destination, theoretically making it possible for her to transport all of us in the same way, as mass no longer matters.
