Adam was starting to regret fighting Cinder. Straight after, Ruby questioned him as of to why he was trying to kill Cinder. He didn't want to deal with that, so he just ignored her

That wasn't the best move

In turn Ruby stopped interacting with Adam, Yang either ignored him or yelled at him, Weiss also yelled at him and refused to be anywhere near him to the point where she would literally sleep on the roof

Adam sighed

'How am I supposed to fix this?' Adam thought. The only people who still interacted with him was JNPR, Blake, and Silver along with the rest of the team CMEA (Chimera)

But, even then, Adam felt alone. He was broken and didn't know where to even begin in fixing himself. And whats even worse is that he had to explain the events of last night with Ruby!

'Please Oum, if you're out there, I can't take anymore.' Adam thought

Adam and Ruby were going up the elevator. Ruby pressed all the buttons in the elevator, so they had a long ride ahead of them. Ruby looked over to Adam before turning away. Adam saw this and acted on it

"If that was about last night, I wanna say sorry. But it's not for my actions, it's because you were there to see them." Adam said

"But why?" He heard Ruby ask

"Because I don't care whether or not Cinder lives. I care that she doesn't hurt anyone." Adam answered before the door opened

"Sorry we're late. Someone pushed all the buttons on the way up here." Ruby said. Adam sensed she was about to put the blame on him, so he interjected before she could

"Ruby did it." Adam said. He looked over to see her mouth agape

"Adam, Ruby, how are you feeling?" Ozpin asked

"I'm fine sir." Adam answered

"Okay, I guess? I'd feel better if my bad guy catching record wasn't 0-3!" She joked to hopefully bring the mood up, only to see it had the opposite effect

"Oh, so that's the tone we're going for. Got it." Ruby said afterwards

"Ruby, Adam, I just want to let you know that what you did is what a huntsman is being about. You recognized a threat, and acted on it." Ironwood said

"Thank you, General." Adam said

"T-Thank you sir." Ruby also said

"Now that you're better, can you tell us anything about what transpired last night?" Glynda asked

"Neither did she say much nor did she put up a fight. Had we tuned out the elevator, we would have captured her." Adam explained

"It sounds like your blaming the general?" Ozpin asked

"I'm not blaming him. Theres absolutely no way he would've known we were up there before hand. The timing was just inconvenient ." Adam said

"Hmm, the blood sample didn't help us name anyone." Glynda said, wondering who could've done this

"Oh well, we're bound to figure out. But I think that's enough questions for now. You're free to go." Ozpin dismissed Adam and Ruby

"Oh, one last thing, she muttered something about a base in the southeast. Apparently just outside the kingdom." Adam said. This worked because everyone in the room knew Adam was a faunus. However, Glynda misunderstood him
