Dorm White Rose, Novus 8
Rheia's eyes widened as Alexia delivered the news. Knight Queen Lucretia was here. Knight Queen Lucretia. She ruled over Vale with absolute authority, whether or not she applied her rule as such. For the Knight Queen herself to be here meant that whatever was going on was a very big deal - and that was putting it lightly.
"Um, excuse me, but if I may... what in the name of Dust is the frigging Knight Queen doing here? We're just students, we aren't even full Hunters yet!"
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."
Novus 8
"Hangon, Rheia..." Hrunting and Naegling groaned in protest as Ayers clenched his fist. For once, he held his tongue on any hatred he harbored for Alexia's family and all they represented. He held a hand up. "I might have a bit of an explanation here, but I ain't got no ideer if'n y'all actually wanna hear it."

Emergency Dorm Meeting
"Why wouldn't I? Is this some sort of weird "the knowledge drives you crazy" type'a thing?" Rheia queried further, cocking her head.
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."
"Nah, thought it'd be a little sarcastic." Ayers said. He leaned back in his chair a bit. "Well, we got a ghost hangin' round us who's responsible fer awful war crimes..." He took a deep breath and uncurled his finger, marking off answers as he said so. "We got multiple nobles with all sorts a connections to political stuff, I'm connected to a major crime syndicate, Imuka's got all sorts a weird shit comin' fer her..." He held his hand out to Rheia. "Y'all prolly got some similar stuff with yer Team hwut I duno about, right?"

Welp
Rheia stared flatly at Ayers as he listed off all of the crazy shit that Dorm White Rose had ties to. It was clear that even though she believed it, she found it entirely outlandish. More than likely she was cursing her decision to come to Beacon.
At least for a moment.
"So we've all got ties to fucked up things, then.... yeah, that about checks out," she replied flippantly.
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."

Pius stepped near his partner, concern etched on his expression. Well, more so than usual.
"Alexia, what's going on?"

Meeting
Not bothering to find himself a seat in the Common Room, Glen leaned against a nearby wall and muttered "This is goin' tae be just feckin' braw now isn't it?" to no one in particular. Being in the same room as most of the Royal Family wasn't going to be a fun experience.

Stormer was sitting on one of the common room couches, hearing the news.

The Plot Thickens
Hope remained silent for the most part. Whatever news the Queen herself could have couldn't be good ones.
What could it be? Arcana? White Fang? Alexandros? Something else? Frankly, Grimm were starting to look like a welcome alternative.
Then she thought of the Dreamshade and changed her song immediately.
For now she could only offer a reassuring pat on Alexia's shoulder.

Two Cents
Grigori spoke facetiously, "I guess autographs are out the question." Yet, he changed tone. "Look, all we can do is get ready for what's coming."
He thought to himself that if this were White Fang or Grimm, it would be no problem, he's dealt with them for years. But, he had a feeling that it wouldn't be so simple.
After all, what's life without a few curveballs?

Rufus's legs hung over the side as he watched out over the expanse below. He reached for his pocket, pulling out his scroll.
Marvelous, I've become used to this thing.
He dialed up Yun.
Beacon
Yun nodded to Alexia "I'll be there." He said, before his scroll began vibrating in his pocket. "Sorry, excuse me for a bit..." He apologized, walking out of the room before answering the call.
"Rufus? What's up?"
"Yun, I just felt the need to, um, rmm," Rufus paused a bit more over the line, "Check... up on you?
"How is Hope?"

Medus slid a bit closer to Alice and gently turned her face towards him. "Cute." He said, planting a kiss on her lips. "I hope you'll play for me sometime."

The rocker finished tuning his guitar. "Wow, two princesses and the Queen. This must be big. We miss your birthday or something, Princess?"

"Tha fuck is tha Queen callin' us fer?" Noa asked skeptically. "She gonna give us some award 'r somethin'? Ah could use somethin' ta impress tha ladies wit."
Again, another slimy smile before she ran her fingers over the brim of her cap.
Is this your power, Yagami?

"Medus please, this could be gravely serious." Ieria cautioned as she looked to him. "We cannot take this lightly."

Alexia shook her head, letting loose a breath she had been holding. She did manage to smile reassuringly at her friends.
She tried to keep her voice calm as she spoke.
"Something big. Beyond that, I don't know. Anyway, we should go..."
Half an hour later, and the students stood in Ozpin's office in the highest tower. The Headmaster himself sat at his desk, looking grave.
The Queen and the elder Princess also sat, Alice looking quite agitated and Lucretia's face carefully blank.
"Let us get to the point." Lucretia said immediately when everyone was there.
"You students have done more than what anyone expects of you. More than any other student at Beacon at this point. You are under no obligation to be on this mission. You may back down if you so wish."
"That means you as well, Alexia." said Alice.
"But I want to. To be there for the others." the younger princess replied firmly.
Alice sighed. "Knew you'd say that."
Lucretia continued. "We may have found a way to link Maximilian Alexandros to Luna's atrocities."
In Charisse's mind, Mia stirred.
What?
"...On the other hand, we have also learned that Arcana's plas are going into their next phase."
"As we said, none of you are obligated to come to these. You may leave now if you so wish. However, if you wish to stay...prepare yourselves."

Novus 8th
Medus yawned from where he was slouched on the wall. "Well, sounds like this is so serious we'll have to cancel the dorm orgy. Alright, Killer Queen, lay it on us, how bad is it?" He asked pointedly not looking at the aghast looks he knew the two princesses would be giving him by now. "What? You didn't expect any of to make a decision on this with that little information did you?" He asked, pushing up from the wall and standing in a relaxed posture.
"Besides, I refuse to let any of these guys get me tangled up in knots just because they want to go another round."
-dramatic music ensues-
Stop Killing My Titles
Hope let out an incomprehensible grunt in response to Medus' laid-back attitude.
"I will have to agree with him, Your Majesties." She said, her tone just a little stiff as she shifted herself on the wheelchair. "If we are to help, we must know what are we dealing with."

Ozpin's Office
Rheia stood about as respectably as she could manage as she listened to what Lucretia wanted of her. Alexandros - that one person she had met earlier - had been linked to the atrocities of... well, someone. And the Arcana - those terrorists from before - were starting to rev up again.
"Um... could... could I ask a question?" Knight Queen be damned, Rheia was at least going to ask about this Luna fellow and what they'd done wrong. And why Alexandros was evidently worse than some pompous git with an ego the size of Remnant's moon.

Al stood up, looked towards the queen with his typical calm look, his arms were folded and he listened carefully to what was said. He spoke to Grigori without turning his head towards him. "I'll explain the situation later Grigori. For now stay quiet and listen"

Silvia moved herself to the location specificed a bit wary of what awaited her.
Backstage
Silvia comforted Imuka as they waited for her turn. "I picked a very good color balance for you. Lots of soft subtle blues. That goes very well with your natural colors."
Her wings were twitching as she waited. She knew a faliure for Imuka would essentially be a failure for her. Designing characters for her G&G campaign wasn't the same as designing for a real fashion show right?

Jack sighed, "I'm just saying, a weapon doesn't need to be perfect if it hits hard enough." Apparently Sechs just couldn't comprehend the idea of missing technique or any sort of balance in a fighting style or weapon. Jack walked away, slowly following the sounds of a roaring and growling beast...Well, that was unexpected, Jack quietly stared as Glenn rode a Grimm.
And yet they still didn't allow underage drinking.

Fuck this, plot time.
Novus 6, Pageant
Alexia breathed deeply, trying to calm her nerves. It helped a little. Very little.
The younger princess tried to smile at Hope, but it came out as more of a pained expression.
"Ummm...er, I'll try not to fail horribly. Er, your turn, Hope....umm...what are you going to do?"
In the audience, Alice merely grunted and looked away from Medus.
Once more, Carol betrayed her. "She wanted to impress you."
"Carol!"
Novus 8, Wednesday, 6:00 PM, Dorm White Rose, One thing after another
Alexia looked troubled as she emerged from her room. She held her Scroll as she waled into the living room, face grave.
She had called the others to a dorm meeting. She had news to give.
And of course, it wasn't exactly good news. Alexia was worried, because...well, when these things happen, her friends almost always ended up in danger or traumatized.
She opened her mouth to speak, but nothing came out. She closed her eyes, breathed deeply and tried again.
"We...we've been called to the Headmaster's office. My sister is here...and...and my mother as well."
Her mother. Lucretia Vale herself. If that wasn't an indication of something serious...
