"Wow it feels good to finally be out of this boring house and save the world! Well not boring since it is not our house. I mean I think Your sister's nice and pretty and all but I mean umm.. Ready everyone!?"
Ruby a bit nervous after giving a speech to her Team or Teams? Now that she was kinda like the Leader of RNJR and RWBY. It was hard to tell since all her friends decided to help her not only in her quest to secure the Relic but to join her in finally finding a way to end the war between Ozpin and Salem.
They were finishing a team meeting about how to get the Lamp to Atlas now that they were in Argus and had a place to stay for a few days thanks to Saffron and Terra.
"Alright Kiddo,You and your friends should get some rest for the day. I need to take care of some things before we head out in the morning." Looking up at her Uncle who had been doing a lot better since the farm Ruby couldn't help but shoot him a weary smile.
"You're not going out to drink again right Uncle Qrow?" Even if he's trying to be better Ruby knew the truth about Ozpin had hit her Uncle the hardest he was a member of the head master's circle since before she was born after all.
"Nah told you i'm putting that behind me kiddo. Just gotta fly over to the CCT to see if I got a response from Jimmy. You kids can just stay here and relax." Qrow spoke while walking over to the kitchen and grabbing a piece of bread before opening the window and turning into his alternate form flying out to scour the town before heading to his destination.
"You Heard him! Let's go Ren. I heard they made Pancakes out of meat Here!"
Nora's yell broke them out of their serious mood and made a few of them laugh though seeing his partner slightly calmer now that they were together-together. Ren couldn't help but smile as he corrected her.
"Nora. They're called Okonomiyaki and we don't need to leave. I have enough ingredients to make them for all of us" Ren, though exhausted from the knowledge of the futility before them, was always happy to make any variety of pancake for his precious friends and partner.
"That is if your sister won't mind Jaune" Ren, while happy to cook for Nora and not minding having to cook enough for the whole group, knew it would be rude to wander around and use the things in someone else's house.
"Huh Oh sure don't worry about it Ren. Food won't be a problem, it seems like Adrein can't get enough of your cooking after all Ha ha,Terra even cornered me wanting to ask about some of your recipes earlier." Letting out a bit of a nervous laugh the blond knight gave the okay to his stoic teammate.
"All Right! Hear that Renny we're gonna have to protect all your Food Know how you ready Fearless Leader!?"Jaune wanting to lift the mod some more played into his teammates' antics.
"Oh my Oum Nora's right quick Ren to the kitchen before all the housewives in the neighborhood get you." Seeing the small smile on his stoic friend Jaune couldn't help but smile as he got up from the fluffy couch and opened the kitchen door.
"Yeah Renny hurry Only your delicious cooking can hold everyone off!" Nora yelled excitedly as she picked up her partner and carried him into his natural well tasting territory.
Everyone laughed at the trio's antics,before deciding to relax while Ren cooked but before long they heard a small knock on the front door.
Oscar went to open the door to see who it was but when he did, there was nobody there. As he looked around and found no one, the farm boy was confused until he looked down and saw a letter with a wax seal, the letter said 'To Team RWBY{Urgent}.'
"Um guys, is anyone expecting mail today?" Oscar asked as he brought the letter inside after closing the door.
'It's not a trap is it?"
Oscar let out a manly gasp as he was surprised at the voice that came from beside him and snatched the letter from his hand.The farm boy made for his cane only to calm down when he realized it was his friend's teammate and resident scary cat lady.
"What's that Blake?" Ruby asked, turning around and looking up at her faunus teammate.
"There's no one here, but apparently there is an important letter for us." Blake said as she looked over the unopened letter.
"Well I find the solution to be quite obvious". Blake looked over to her former white now blue teammate who had already grabbed her weapon and striding towards her own position in the entryway.
Weiss went to open the letter, but she didn't get the chance as her dolt of a partner grabbed it before she did. Even with Ruby holding it she couldn't bring herself to remove her eyes from the letter. "I wonder who sent us this..." wondered the former heiress.
"Maybe it could be your Sister,You did write to her before we left Haven." Ruby said, handing her partner Weiss the potential letter from her sister.
"I Wish that was true.Winter's aid will make reaching Atlas easier, now then what is so Urgent that-" Weiss said as she opened the letter. But as soon as she opened the letter, the letter glowed and a bright light enveloped the entire home. When the light died down, the letter turned to motes of light as the room was now empty.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eventually, Ruby and her Team slowly woke up, as they looked around,
"What the heck...just happened?" Ruby asked.
"Winter No More..-" While Weiss took a moment to slowly regain her bearings.
"Rubes!" I thought something bad happened to you,I was working on BumbleBee when I got a letter and then..." Yang yelled after she saw her little sister and proceeded to hug her while Ruby angrily blushed.
"Yang…Air...Please..can't…Breathe!" Ruby exclaimed as her sister got even tighter with her bear hug and squishing her face into her Blondshells.
{How did you guys get here? No one is usually allowed in between Worlds.} The woman asked.
"Who said that?" Everyone got on their toes as they prepared themselves.
{Over here, where the screen is.} It said this confused them as there was nothing around them but when they turned around to where they were first landed there was now a giant blank screen where nothing but a black void was before.
Their eyes moved to where the screen was placed.there they saw a figure, a tall Voluptuous silhouette that was shifting between a human and a Faunus. The silhouette was surrounded by a dim gray outline and had star like voids where its eyes should be. She was rather surprised to see other people here.
"Well, all of us received a letter, then there was a flash of light and we ended up here." Weiss said remembering to sound polite.
{Is that so... I think I know who.} That is when a ringtone was heard. {Sorry, that was my phone.} The woman took out her phone and proceeded to answer.
{It's me...Uh huh... are you serious? Screw you bastard! First Your brother fucks up and now you do this!?... Fine! You owe me for this!} She shouted all of a sudden at the phone, all this time while everyone was looking at her.
"Umm...is she okay?" Ruby asked not really understanding the situation she found herself in after waking up from her sister's hug.
Soon the call ended and the woman now had a frown on her face as she facepalmed.
{Damn that guy, now I have to do his job...} She muttered.
"I'm sorry to interrupt your pondering, but can you explain who you are and what is this place?" Blake asked.
{Sure, I have to do that anyway. Well, my name is Alaya} The being snapped and the world around everyone shifted and turned into a familiar location to most of the cast.
{Welcome to the viewing theater of the multiverse, where you can see different versions of the world that you know.} Alaya introduced herself.
{The God called Light He was the one who gave you the letters to allow you to enter this place, but he screwed up the location and so instead of just his Emissary, All of you guys are now in my theater. So in the meantime, I'm here to keep you guys occupied.} Alaya Explained.
"So, what are we supposed to be doing here?" Blake asked.
{This is a multiverse theater, so we are going to watch a universe that is chosen by one of you, you'll be here for quite a while whilst I try to find your original world to return you to.}
"Well, I don't suppose we really have any option, at least we can choose what we wanna see" Blake said.
{Okay guys, the world that we are about to view is being selected by one of you now.} Alaya said.
"Alright! I wanna see everyone together living peacefully forever with no Grimm!." Ruby exclaimed wanting to see at least one world where all of them were together for a little longer.
{Alright then.}
The screen came to life as the audience can now see an alternate world in action.
