Ruby walked down a hallway in Beacon she'd never been through before. As she walked, she noticed the odd colored olive green walls, the blue carpet, the lamps that shown orange, and the doors that were brown. She couldn't help but notice this disaster, happy it closed whenever it did. She noticed paintings on the walls, one of a man in yellow armor, almost like a ninja, standing with a girl who looked a lot like Blake. They were in a Colliseum, and there was a crowd. In the next painting, it looked like Penny and a Grifball player in white faced off in a huge open area of a warehouse district. Next was a painting of a man, he bore razor sharp teeth and claws that portruded from his arms, and next to him stood a giant man with a hammer.
"What the hell are these paintings?" Ruby asked herself.
They continued for a while. Blue Grifball player saving another Grifball player, a Yang lookalike facing off against a man with a respirator, a Penny lookalike and a small ghost, and the last painting was of the white Grifball player and the buff hammer guy with a split in the middle.
"What the hell do these mean?" Ruby asked.
She collapsed on the floor and passed out.
*Later*
Ruby awoke in Weiss' bed. She leaned up and stroked her hair, happy they were together. She stood to see Blake and Yang, just as happy, cuddled in Yang's bed. Ruby sighed, put on her outfit, and walked out the door. She saw Team JNPR's room open, so she peered inside their room. Pyrrha and Jaune were asleep on their respective beds, while Nora slept on top of Ren. She giggled at this and continued to walk out. She crossed by that really mysterious gray haired dude and Velvet as they swooned over each other. She also saw a dark woman with green hair look at their relationship mopey.
"I love this campus." She murmered. Ruby then made it to the 'Sushi Kieken', when her Scroll began to beep. She opened it to see a call from Penny. "Oh dear." She accepted the call, scared of what the subject might be. The lines connected and Ruby cleared her throat. "Hello!" She said, cheerily.
"No time for pleasantries." Penny sounded urgent. "I'm being followed by two Grifball players, but they're in all white." She scrambled over her words. "I'm not sure as to what I should do."
'That's just like my dream...' Ruby thought. "Penny, where are you now?"
"Uh, I'm in Atlas. I was just visiting, and uh, well this happened." She said in earnest.
Ruby nodded. "Okay, you need to find Neptune." She said. "He's on leave there, and he'll be able to help you better than I can." She waited a few seconds, asking a follow up question. "Why are they following you?"
Penny sighed. "They didn't start until the little blue man started talking to me."
Ruby was puzzled. "What is its name?"
"Uh...Leonard Church."
'Isn't that the guy Sun made a bet with?' She thought. "Penny, seek out someone else while you're there. A Freelancer in the Big Bloop Cafe named Wash can help you."
Penny sounded relieved. "You are a lifesaver. Bye now!" The call disconnected.
Ruby sighed and was going to close her scroll when she saw a text from Weiss.
[From: -Weisscake-]
[Subject: -holyshit-]
[You need to get here now. As in pronto.]
Ruby shrugged and made her way across campus, back up the stairs, back to her door. She heard only raspy breathing, and an incredible heat. Ruby backed away from the door, but knew Weiss was inside. She opened the door to see Weiss and Yang huddled together, while Blake stood on guard, staring at a man. 'The yellow ninja from my dream...'
"Who are you?" Ruby asked.
"My name is Scorpion, and we need to talk, Defenders of Remnantrealm..."
