Wade couldn't believe his eyes. Entering the classroom were Ruby Rose and Voltaria Eclipse. It was a total shock. Usually, Voltaria would be first in class alone. But now, she comes in with Ruby. This was a shocker for him and everyone in the classroom. Before anyone could speak further, Professor Oobleck zooms in.

"Good Morning class! Ms. Rose! Ms. Eclipse! Take your seats! Class will be starting now!" Oobleck said quickly.

Ruby and Voltaria went to their respectful teammates and took their seats. As Oobleck started explaining the history of Vacuo, Ruby's teammates were wondering where Ruby had been. They were worried after she didn't show up in their dorm after she went off to get something to eat. But they didn't expect her to be with Voltaria.

"Hey, Sis?" Yang whispers to Ruby.

"Yes?" Ruby asked, looking at her sister.

"Why were you with Voltaria?" Yang asked.

Ruby tense as she thinks of an excuse. "Uh...well, we kind of bumped into each other by accident! Yeah, accident ehehehe..." Ruby laughs weakly and nervously.

"Ruby? Is there something wrong?" Blake asked Ruby.

"Wha? No! Nothing's wrong! Me and Volty were just...hanging out."

"Hanging out? Last time I checked, Voltaria didn't like spending time with other people, including her own teammates." Yang pointed out.

Ruby taps her fingers together, sweating a little. "Well..."

"Ms. Rose!" Oobleck exclaims.

Ruby stood up and faced the professor. "Yes!"

"Can you explain the reason why Vacuo has no formal government?!" Oobleck exclaims, sipping a cup of coffee.

"Uhh..." Ruby tries to think, figuring a way to answer his question.

Suddenly, she felt something in her mind, it was Regina's voice. Ruby...

"Regina?" Ruby thought in surprise, almost forgot she and others can do telepathy.

Follow my words carefully. Regina instructed.

"Um, okay?" Ruby thought softly. Regina gave Ruby the information she needed to answer Oobleck's question. "Well...when the Great War ended, the first formal government was finally made in Vacuo, but the people didn't care about the laws. And then Shade Academy was made and became the only real source of order in the Kingdom." Ruby answered.

"Correct!" Oobleck exclaims as he zooms away.

Ruby sighs and sits back down, feeling relief that she was able to answer. "Thanks, Regina." She thought with a smile.

You are very welcome, Ruby. Regina said to her as she returned back to Volatria, who was paying attention to Oobleck.

Ruby smiles as they return back to the lessons. Hours later, they went to Professor Port's class. He was telling his tale about facing Grimms that lurks through the deep ocean. Ruby taps her hands impatiently as she waits for the class to be over, so she and Voltaria can check on Amaryllis and Ripper; she was worried about people finding them. But she was assured by Regina, who sensed her distress, as she told her that Hannibal is keeping them safe from danger and no human or Faunus can enter deep within Emerald Forest. This helped Ruby relax but still thinks about Amaryllis and Ruby.
