She said to her as her tears continue draining down her cheeks. She take a deep breath and said.
Summer:" On that mission, I tried to fight back against those Grimms but it manages to attack me from behind. I was injured that day. Then, I used my whole powers to destroy them with my silver eyes. After that, I was so scared that my powers are too dangerous for you and your father so I left for my own good. When I heard someone is attacking the Fall Maiden I have to run far away here and then, I passed out for my little bit blood loss by those Grimms that attacked me."

He silence for a bit and said to her.
Qrow:" When I heard about Summer death, I couldn't bear myself to live for. I don't want you to see me as a broken father who lost everything he loves. So I ask Taiyong to be your father and I'll be your uncle so I can drink all of it for my depression."
He said with his sadness on his face. Then, Ruby hug him which he was surprised.
Qrow:" R-Ruby?"
Ruby:" Dad..."

She said to give a smiled at them.
Ruby:" We can be a family again and never to let go this time."
They surprised of her words but they smiled to see her happy face without her tears on her cheeks.
Ruby:" Dad, please no more secrets okay."
He began to smiled and said.
Qrow:" Sure, short-stack."
He said as he rubbing her head making her giggled. Summer was so happy to see them hugging each other when she started to cough as Qrow pat at her back to let it out. Ruby was worried about her.
Ruby:" Mom, are you alright?"

Cinder:" Oh yeah? Watch this!"
She said as she use her fireball to throw at the glass but it didn't break the glass as she shocked to see it.
Human guard:" You like it? We put this glass with full proof so you won't able to break it that easy."
She tried to use her bow & arrow to shoot it but it didn't break it as well.
Human guard:" I told you. You won't able to escape and you're in the deep section so that means you are very deep down prison just for you."
Cinder:" You will pay for this!"
Faunus guard:" No. You will pay for your crimes. Now, you will enjoy here 'till your court will come soon. So, see ya!"
