Soon enough, they were back at school, and Itachi was leading them all into the headmaster's office. Hikari started to wonder How often they would all be called in there during their time at Beacon.

Ruby saw Blake and Team HANA enter the building and was curious as to what was going on. The leader of the team had covered for Blake during the day when the professors asked about their missing teammate. Following the five plus one professor since she currently had a free period, the ravenette noticed that they all were heading towards the Headmaster's office. 'What's going on here... she thought to herself.

Once they were all inside the office with the door closed, Itachi stepped forward. "Headmaster, I thought we should inform you of a possible situation." He said, then proceeded to explain what had happened.

"I see," the Headmaster said after listening to Itachi. "Blake, is this true?" he asked before getting a nod from the cat faunus as he then turned his attention back towards the team in the room. "Team HANA, I know it isn't your fault all of this is happening, but a lot of things that include you and Team RWBY are starting to surface...should I be worried about you all?" he asked.

Hikari looked around at her team, and shook her head. "I, personally, am fine headmaster. I can't speak for everyone themselves, but I think we'll be okay." She said.

Naruto nodded. "I know I'll be fine, too. As long as we're all together, I think we can help each other be okay." He added.

Sir, if it matters at all, I think Team HANA can handle anything that's thrown at it. Sure we've had our problems, but it's them coming to us. Not us going to them," Areku replied. Perhaps he was being a little bold by saying what he said, but he meant it.

"I have to agree with everyone here, especially with what Ark said," Amaya added.

Itachi nodded. "I've watched these students for a while now, and I can say with confidence that they'll be fine. Trouble seems to like them, but they've always gotten through it so far." He said, earning a thankful smile from Hikari.

"Thank you sensei," Amaya said with a light smile, glad that Itachi had spoken up for them.

Itachi nodded at Amaya, a tiny, almost-invisible smile on his face.

"Um...headmaster, if that's all, may we go now? We've missed a few classes, and I really think we should get back before we miss too much more." Hikari said.

Ozpin nodded before dismissing them all, allowing the team to resume their normal activities for the day. After that was done, he thought about what to do next...apparently there were people coming here that were harming the students, something that he couldn't allow to continue to happen. Not only did it go against what he stood as a Hunter and as a Headmaster, but the Council would also give him grief...moreso than what he needed right now.

After they left the Headmaster's office, Blake noticed Ruby standing outside. Sighing lightly, she told Naruto and the others that she would catch up with them later. "Ruby?" she asked, wondering what the girl was doing.

Naruto nodded, grabbing Blake's hand and giving it a quick squeeze before they parted ways.

"Okay guys...I think we should be right on time for Grimm Studies." Hikari said, walking backwards so that she could see her team mates.

Blake smiled softly at the affectionate gesture, glad that Naruto was here with, and for, her.

"Sorry...I was just curious as to what was going on. First you and Team HANA are skipping class and then I see you all with Itachi-sensei...I'm just concerned about what's going on Blake," Ruby replied to Blake's question once she had the Faunus' full attention.

"I'll explain, but not here. I'll tell everyone at the dorm, promise," Blake responded.

"I'll hold you to that then Blake. Now then, I was going to go to the Library to finish some homework. You want to join?" she asked, getting a nod from Blake as a response.

"You mean the class where Naruto falls asleep all the time," Ark teased.

Hikari nodded. "Yep, that's the one." She said with a chuckle.

"Hey, I don't fall asleep! I just close my eyes to, uh...take in the lesson, 'tebayo!" Naruto protested.

"Call it what ever you want Naruto, you fall asleep," Ark said

Naruto crossed his arms. "I do not! I've never fallen asleep in class, dattebayo!" He maintained for a moment longer, before his arms fell to his sides again. "Well, not never...it did happen once...or twice...okay five times, but not every time!"

"We're only teasing you Naruto" Amaya responded with a light grin.

Naruto sweatdropped. "I know. Hehehehe..." He replied, rubbing the back of his head again.

"Alright, enough teasing for now. We're here." Hikari said as they reached the classroom door. They were just in time for class.

Areku and Amaya nodded, knowing that their team leader was right.

Naruto nodded as well, and went to hold the door open for everyone.

"Thank you, Naruto-kun." Hikari said as she walked through the door.

"Thanks Naru," he replied before heading into the classroom, Amaya repeating what he said to the fox Faunus as well once she entered the classroom.

Blake had everyone in their dorm room now and knew that she couldn't keep the information from them any longer. She was glad that they already got over her being an ex-member of the White Fang, but this was going to be different. Especially since it seemed like Adam, or someone within White Fang, had brainwashed her younger sister to do what she had done. "As Ruby has told me, you all were worried about me today, correct?" she asked.

Yang nodded. "That's right, you really had us worried, Blake!" She said, sounding very older-sister-like.

"Even Weiss was worried about you," Ruby added, grinning lightly as she noticed the icy girl gain a light blush on her cheeks.

"I...I see," Blake said softly, glad that all of her teammates cared for her. "Well then...here's what happened," she stated before explaining what happened with Team HANA, along with her sister and who exactly she was.

When Blake had finished, Weiss held up a hand, needing a moment to process all the information they had been given. "So your little sister, who you thought was dead, has just returned and is working with the White Fang." She clarified.

"And you think your old partner has brainwashed her, so we really don't know what could happen. Wow." Yang felt terrible for the cat faunus. She couldn't imagine thinking Ruby was dead, let alone having to face her as an enemy.

Ruby felt bad for the cat Faunus and wondered what they could do to help. "Blake...how can we help? I'm sure the others will agree when I say we'll do anything in our power to help you out," she said.

Yang nodded, jumping up instantly. "Of course! We're a team, and we're friends, so it's our job!" She said, obviously ready to run out and solve the problem right then and there.

Weiss sighed. "Yeah, I guess I agree." She said reluctantly. Of course she felt bad for Blake, but she didn't care for anyone that allied with the White Fang. Plus, she couldn't afford to actually show that she cared.
