What's next?
Late to the Party Pt3
With the arrival of Professor Goodwitch, things seemed to settle down. Though there was still the matter of the massive boulder stuck in the middle of the sidewalk. But thanks to Glynda's semblance, the damage was all but cleared up as if it never happened. Now to the real matter at hand.
Glynda: So just to be clear, once your team's bulkhead landed, Mr. Egilhard decided to bolt towards the dining hall to challenge Dolan knowing he'd be there at that specific time?
Eliza: That is correct Professor. And since I didn't know where you were at the time, I took it upon myself to defuse the situation before it could escalate any further.
Eliza: I must again apologize ma'am for the damage I caused and for my teammate's actions.
She bows her head to further signify how sorry she was to Glynda.
Glynda: Well, at the very least no one was injured, and you certainly did what you thought was best given the situation Ms. Earnstead. We received a notice that your team would be returning today and considering the issue with the transport schedule being alerted causing you to miss the first few days of the semester I'm willing to let this slide for today.
Eliza: Thank you Professor for your understanding.
Glynda: With that taken care of please escort your team back to your dorm Ms. Earnstead. Don't worry we made sure to tidy it up beforehand.
Eliza: Understood.
And so, Team ECHO began to make their exit until...
Glynda: Oh and Ms. Earnstead!
Eliza and her team turned back to see what else their professor had to say only to see a gentle smile on her face.
Glynda: Welcome Back.
Hearing this the group of four smiled and nodded their heads before continuing towards the destination of their dorm. Once they were far enough away Glynda's smile disappears as she turns her head towards her nephew. From the look on her face, she seemed very irritated and was smacking her riding crop in her hand. Dolan could feel her aura welling up inside.

Dolan: Ok...so I know you're mad, but I just want to go on record...
Dolan: ...that I was minding my own business.
Glynda: That's not the issue! What is, was the fact that one of your duties isn't just to assist the teachers but also prevent things like these from accruing! Not instigate them, Dolan!
Dolan: Come on Aunty Glynda, you know by now that if Cyan tries to square up with me I'm going to acquaint him with the dirt! Hell, we've done this song and dance twelve times already! You'd think he'd learn by now?!
Glynda: Enough. Regardless of your competitive nature with Mr. Egilhard, you'll just have to look past that. Especially since he and the rest of his team will be assisting you in the disciplinary committee.
Dolan: What?! Assisting?! Why?
Glynda: Since this will be their last year in Beacon but also because Ms. Earnstead and Mr. Egilhard plan on becoming teacher's aides once they graduate. Meaning they'll be your coworkers so learning to work with them now is fundamental for later on!
Dolan: I... guess it would be nice to have some people I can count on. I mean sure Cyan can be a fucking pest but he's a pest who has some skills, that much is certain.
Glynda: I appreciate that you're at least open-minded about this.
Dolan: Plus, having Eli around would be good since she cares about Beacon just as much as you. Now that I think about it, she is practically just a younger version of you!
Glynda: ...
She didn't seem to like that comment.
Dolan: Don't get the wrong idea! Yes, she is hot! But if I had to pick who I'd rather spend more time with? It would be you, without question! *~wink~*
Glynda: I see...
Dolan: Are you blushing?
Glynda: !!!
Glynda: J-just go get something to eat! I don't want to hear any more excuses from you for the rest of the day! Do I make myself clear?!
Dolan: You got it!
Glynda: Good now if you'll excuse me, I need to go prepare for my next class!
As she is walking off Dolan runs up to her side and decides to give his aunt a peck on the cheek.
Dolan: I hope you enjoy your day~
Glynda: Dolan...
Before she can say anything to him, he turns around to head back to the dining room. Once back inside he looks to his left to see the people standing next to the windows no doubt observing everything that transpired.
Dolan: Do you people really have the time to just gawk around, or do you just not care to eat?
Soon everyone disperses to either sit down or grab something to eat. After Dolan fills his tray, he looks to see Yang motioning him to come over. Once he takes his seat with them, is when Yang started asking him questions.
Yang: Did you really sleep with that guy's sister?!
Dolan: Yes.
Weiss: No hesitation whatsoever he admits it. (Seriously what does my sister see in him?)
Dolan: The only other thing I'll say on this topic is even though Lapis and I aren't in a relationship that doesn't mean I don't wish her to be happy, 'nuff said.
Yang: Ok then how about that Eliza chick? She's the one who hurled that boulder right? Is she really strong?
Dolan: She is however she didn't really need that much strength to hurl that massive rock.
Ruby: What do you mean?
Dolan: Her semblance allows her to increase or decrease gravity. All she has to do is make the rock float slap it into the air and the rock will do the rest.
Ruby: So cool! What about the others? What can they do?
Dolan: Listen, as much as I'd love to continue answering more of your questions, you all have classes and I'd like to begin eating my food if that's alright?
Blake: Dolan's right we should finish our meals and prepare for our next class.
Ruby: What was our next class again?
Blake: Port I'm afraid.
Hearing this Ruby and Yang sighed in unison showing how much they dreaded his class.
Dolan: I'll say a prayer for all of you if you'd like. Something tells me you'll be needing it.
Shortly after eating and going his separate ways from Team RWBY, Dolan receives a text notification. Upon inspecting it he sees that the text came from Oliver from Team ECHO. It reads: "Are you up to meeting me and the rest of my team at the usual hangout?"
Considering Cyan would be there Dolan really didn't want to but then he remembers what his aunt said. Regardless of how he feels about Cyan at the very least if things started to go bad, he could count on Eliza to get in between them. He thinks it over before finally responding.
Dolan: *sigh*
"Sure, I'll be there."
