It's been five minutes since Ice was discharged from the hospital and she already had something to do. The goth had gotten a message telling her to report to Ozpin's office which she didn't have a choice but to comply with. It took Ice longer than usual considering she was now confined to a wheelchair.

Ice was in her wheelchair in the elevator and waited for the doors to open, wondering why she was called. The answer was delivered as she saw the professor and her three teammates on the other side of the door.

The Faunus's breathing increased rapidly as memories of two weeks ago came rushing back.

"No" Ice whispered

"Miss Onyx, it's all right. Please come in" Ozpin's stated

Very very hesitantly, Ice rolled herself in and stopped her chair five meters away from her teammates who were glaring at her which made her ears fall against her head.

"Team ISKL" Ozpin's started which made SKL look forward "I have called you here to discuss the incident that happened a few weeks ago"

"It's to tell me I can't be a Huntress, the only thing I've ever wanted for myself" Ice thought

"Ice went into the Emerald Forest by herself and got her legs cut off by a beowolf. We heard she was rushed to the hospital and we all ran right there" Saffron said

I was sent a glare that said if I talked, I was dead. Ignoring my own feelings I can't die yet, I have a life debt to fulfill.

"That's interesting since my four best students told me that Ice's legs were broken by a hammer and she was on the verge of bleeding out when they found her crawling away from a pack of beowolves"

Saffron tried to hide his warhammer.

"One of them saw" Ozpin used saw instead of heard to hide Blake's secret "the four of you running from Grimm when you three decided to cripple Ice so the Grimm would go after her instead of you. I have never seen such selfishness and hatred in any of my students!" The Professor had to take a few seconds to recompose himself "You three are expelled, pack your things and get out of my school"

"B-But sir" Crimson tried to argue

"Now" Ozpin sternly said

I got three more death glares before they left.

"It's good to see you Miss Onyx"

"T-T-Thank you Professor"

"I'm sorry you had to go through an experience such as that" Ozpin apologized

"I-It's alright, some good did come out of it"

"Yes I've heard, you've enslaved yourself to Miss Rose"

"It r-really isn't anything that bad, it's a sacred tradition among my people" I reassured

"Well I assume it will be difficult given your current state. I arranged a friend to leave a gift in your room, I think you'll like it"

"W-W-Wow, thank you P-Proffesor" Ice stammered

Ozpin just smiled in response and Ice took a while to wheel her way to the elevator and go down. It took Ice twenty minutes to roll herself back to the dorm and was excited to see what her gift was. As the Faunus opened the door, she saw her room was trashed.

"Dammit"

There was no doubt that this was a goodbye gift from her team. The only thing that wasn't ruined was a metal box. It almost made Ice cry.

"That's not mine"

It was a struggle but Ice did open the box and found two syringes inside with a note.

This is dust that used for prosthetics. Inject it into the stub of you lost limb and in three weeks you will be ready for artificial limbs.

"Now I can be of use to my mistress" Ice smirked

Ice hated needles with a fiery passion but she needed to do this. The girl took the first syringe and stabbed her right stub with it and pushed the contents into her body. As soon as the pain started Ice grabbed a torn bedsheet and put as much of it as she could into her mouth and bit down before she started screaming in sheer agony. The bedsheets muffled most of it but considering she was a wolf, her howling was still loud.

"Make it end" she pleaded as tears formed in her eyes

After an unbelievably painful ten minutes, it was done. Well one leg was done. After Ice was done with the second she had passed out from the pain.

Fifteen minutes before hand, Ruby had gotten on the airship back to Beacon from her favorite cafe with a bag full of cookies. Ruby had returned to her floor and was walking down the hall when she heard a noise. It was really loud but out of all the students in the hallway, only Ruby could hear it.

"What the…." She thought

The hooded girl found no use in standing around so she started to walk towards the source. As she got closer Ruby could tell it was screaming and started running. The source came from a dorm room. People started to notice the noise the closer she got towards the source.

Ruby placed her hand on the doorknob and tried to open it but it was locked.

"Hello?" Ruby asked after she knocked

Suddenly the screaming stopped. That is either really good or really bad. Ruby decided really bad and pulled out Crescent Rose. Very carefully, Ruby used the tip of Crescent Rose like a hotel key and swiped it down the door frame which opened the door to a mostly ruined room but that wasn't Ruby's concern right now.

Ruby decided to go with stealth and slowly opened the door with her back against the wall. Gazing inside, Ruby noticed that Ice was passed out on the ground.

"Oh no" Ruby gasped and ran in

"Ice" Ruby shook her and got no response

"Ice!" Ruby shook her violently this time

"ICE!"

A groan came from Ice's lips and then she spoke.

"Yeah, give it to me"

Ice's dream was not safe for those under seventeen but thankfully Ruby was too innocent to know.

"Good she's just dreaming. Is she getting a present?"

Ruby moved her thoughts beyond Ice's dream and realized she can't just let Ice sleep on the floor all night.

After a lot of struggling and finally succeeding Ruby managed to get Ice on her bed and under the covers.

Tucking a girl into bed reminded Ruby of her mother and unconsciously Ruby leant down and was about to kiss Ice on the forehead. Ruby was distracted by Ice's lips. They were slightly open as if asking Ruby to kiss them and were very alluring.

In a second Ruby was away from Ice's bed and against the wall. Before the next second could pass Ruby was out of the room with the door slammed behind her.

"What the hell Ruby?! Why did you almost kiss her! What is wrong with you, you aren't a lesbian!...Are you?"

Ruby needed someone to talk to. Weiss is too much of an ice queen but is Ruby's best friend. Blake is anti-social but can definitely keep a secret. Last Yang is…..Yang but she is Yang. Weighing the options, Ruby had her confidant.
