Sun was standing next to the punch bowl still fidgeting with his tie. "Why are these things considered fancy." He said loosening the fabric "Nothing more than glorified nooses." At that point, he noticed Ruby slowly limping towards him , hugging the wall, and tears in her eyes. "Yo Ruby, you alright?"

"No, I'm not. I hate heels." Ruby said whimpering "I don't get how some girls can be so comfortable wearing these things. Heck, Pyrrha even fights in them."

"Yeah I know. Neptune made me wear this stupid thing just so he could use me as his wingman and hit on the girls." Sun said with a glower.

"I can't wait for this dance to be over," Ruby whined.

"Why should you wait then?" Sun asked

"Cause I can't just walk out after everyone spent so much time and effort setting everything up," Ruby responded

"Well, so what, It's not like you didn't show up and have fun for at least a bit. And besides, if you're not having fun why should you force yourself to stay?" Sun asked.

"I guess you have a point. Yeah, I had fun and you know what now I...I...I don't know what to do." Ruby said deflated

"I don't know about you but first, I'm going to burn this noose, then I'm going to go get some snacks. You are more than welcome to come and join me if you want." With that, Sun started walking towards the door of the ballroom while taking his tie off. After a moment of thought, Ruby took off her heels and quickly caught up with the faunas.

Once they were both outside and walking the monkey faunas decided to say "So I can't help but notice that you look a bit younger than everyone else. Any reason to that?"

"Oh well, you see, I was actually advanced two years ahead of everyone in my class," Ruby replied.

"What! Not only were you moved up two years but you were even put in charge of a team! That must mean you're already an amazing huntress."

"No, I'm just a normal girl with normal knees," Ruby said pointing at her knees.

"Why would you want to be a normal girl when you could be an extraordinary girl with the best knees around?" Sun said with a chuckle and a wave of his arms.

"Because extraordinary girls get asked to help someone do extra training, or weapons maintenance, or help studying for the next combat test!" Ruby said getting frustrated

"But Ruby don't you, I don't know, enjoy doing that stuff already?"

"Yeah but only when it's with my friends. Besides, when you're extraordinary people expect so much more of you and you can't get things wrong cause you're supposed to be better than that. I mean just look at how people treat Weiss and Pyrrha."

"Who cares about Weiss and Pyrrha." Sun said but then quickly added "I mean I know you do. But what I'm saying is that you shouldn't be afraid to do ou just cause other people will think of you differently. Just do what I do."

"And what exactly is it that you do?" Ruby asked.

"Not care. Haha." Sun chuckled

"I'm not sure I could do that.."

"It's easy just do what you want and when people question you about just tell 'Cause I can' and run off."

"I don't think I could do that, but if that's what works for you then you go right ahead."

"Oh don't worry I will." Sun looked around "Hey Ruby where are we?"

Ruby also took a look at where they had ended up "Oh I know this place." Without noticing both of the students had walked across the campus and had arrived at the cliff side of the school facing the Emerald Forest. "This is the place where we took our entrance exam and met our current teams."

"Wow, that must be some story," Sun said

"Oh, it definitely is," Ruby said with a smile. Sun sat down on the cliffside looking out over the Emerald Forest while Ruby started to retell her initiation story.

Back at the dance

The dance was still in its full swing Blake and Yang had just finished their dance, Neptune was still trying to get Weiss to dance, and Jaune and Pyrrha had gone off to talk on the balcony. "Come on snow angel, one dance is going to kill you," Neptune said flashing his best smile.

"No, but it might just get you killed," Weiss said turning away from him.

"Why do you have to be so cold," Neptune said laughing to himself.

"Why don't you go hang out with that banana headed leader of yours. That way you two would actually have a normal amount of brain cells."

"Normally I would but I saw him leave with your leader a while ago." He said gesturing towards the door.

"Wait, what did you just say?" Weiss said turning back to face the man.

"Yeah, Sun and your leader Ruby, had walked out of the party a while ago," Neptune said gesturing towards the door again. "Yeah when I saw them walking out I couldn't help but feel a little proud of myself, all those lessons finally paying off," Neptune said glowing with pride.

"Oh, that is so not good." The heiress said pinching the bridge of her nose.

"What's wrong? Don't tell me you're jealous of her!" He exclaimed. "I mean it is only Sun, the guy is kinda.."

"No, it's not that it's just that Yang.."Weiss started to say when she was cut-off by the person in question.

"Yang what?" The blonde brawler and her partner Blake had walked over to Neptune and Weiss during their conversation. "Well come on guys, spit it out. What, cat got your tongue?" Yang said gesturing towards their friend Blake who in return gave her an annoyed look.

"Yes, Neptune be a gentleman and tell Yang what you were just telling me," Weiss said backing away.

"Um...well...funny story.. you see," Neptune said trying to find the best way to break the news to Yang when out of nowhere Jaune appeared wearing a white dress.

"You guys will never believe what I just saw. Ruby and that Sun guy were just walking out towards the Emerald Forest." It took a few moments for the wheels in Yang's head to connect but when they finally did everyone felt the room's temperature rise by twenty degrees.

Emerald Forest

"So there I was running up the side of the cliff using Weiss' glyphs. I had hooked the Nevermore under the neck with my Crescent Rose, fired a couple of shots, and completely removed its head!" Ruby mimicked herself swinging her scythe and then sat back down as she finished her story.

"Woah, that was awesome!" Sun said excitedly "But I can top that with my initation story." As Sun was getting up he looked over and saw a slightly shimmering Yang coming towards them very quickly and closely followed by the rest of Team RWBY and Neptune. "Oh hey, guys what brings…"Sun had started to say before Yang's fist connected with his face and sent him tumbling down the cliff side.

"Next time you should be more careful about sneaking off with young girls!" Yang shouted down the cliff.

"Sun!" Ruby shouted then she turned towards her older sister. "Yang not this again." Then the young leader started climbing down the cliff.
