Chalk dust swirls in the beam of white-blue light as Room 2A erupts. Past Team RWBY tumbles from a portal, landing in a heap on the carpet. Ruby leaps up, Crescent Rose rasping. Yang readies gauntlets. Weiss glares at their older selves’ attire. Blake watches, guarded. Behind them stands a fifth figure: still, silent, clad in formal Beacon white with a silver rose. Future Ruby beams nervously. Future Yang ruffles hair. Future Weiss speaks with steady cadence. Future Blake offers a knowing look. The silence stretches. Past Ruby eyes the stranger. Future Weiss smiles softly. “That’s my fiancé.”
