"No offense, but this is a waste of precious study time." The Schnee said, though that didn't stop her from climbing into the bullhead alongside them all.
Rolling her eyes, the blonde harlot from Vicky's team buckled herself in and said, "Ease up, Weiss-cream. There's nothing wrong with going out to eat with some friends."
"We aren't friends, Xiao Long, we've known one another for a week. That's hardly enough time to form any real bonds even if I was keen on doing so with an uncouth brute like you."
"Is this about that whole scar thing? I said I was sorry, didn't I?"
"What?! No, that is entirely irrelevant to this situation!" Weiss hissed. "I simply don't see the point in going to eat at some restaurant of questionable quality, whose product is something I've never even heard of, in an area of the city overrun by people who would rather stab me than shake my hand... and I'll have you remember that I was the one to apologize, not you!"
While Louise had been staying out of their little quarrel, it having been going on all morning even before she'd gone to fetch them, the mention of possible violence caused her to perk up. Even if the colorless girl was the closest she'd come to meeting a noble in her travels, it wouldn't be worth it to drag some preexisting conflict into Master Cynric's place of business.
"Why would anyone want to stab you?" Louise asked, ignoring Yang's immediate response of emphatic gestures meant to say 'have you met her?'
"Because I am the heiress to the Schnee Dust Company." Weiss answered, earning a blank look from the pinkette. "The company that is constantly slandered and derided for how we supposedly abuse our faunus employees."
When Louise simply tilted her head, the girl threw her arms up in disgust. "You're as bad as Arc!"
"Hey!"
"Shut it, Jaune!" She growled, pulling up her scroll and typing something into it. Holding it up, she showed several pictures of vehicles and properties that'd had fancy looking snowflake emblems marred by claw marks and wolf heads. "The place you're taking us is a faunus infested slum likely overrun by White Fang sympathizers. Those people would probably like nothing more than to mount my head on a pike and bandy it about like some sort of trophy, the savages... no offense, Victoria, you've practically been a saint."
"Uh... Yeah, sure." Vicky replied awkwardly, shuffling her bulk about to try and squeeze in comfortably. "Either way, I'm sure nothing bad will happen with all of us around. Not to mention the owner."
Nodding vigorously, Louise agreed, "If there's anything that we can't handle, My Master would remove the threat easily."
Oddly, Yang started to choke and Jaune's face turned red at her words. Whatever was wrong with the two blondes, it was Ruby that voiced her confusion. "Master? I thought you were like a princess or something. Calling him that makes it seem like you're a slave or something."
"Heiress to the second line for the throne, but close enough." The pinkette corrected the child's blunder, scrunching her nose at the thought. "He's my master in that I am his apprentice in... combat techniques."
"Oh okay, that makes sense."
Still flushed, but having overcome whatever the problem was, the Arc boy asked, "So you're like a ninja? That's pretty cool."
"I think she means more like how my uncle taught me everything I know about scythe wielding, not ninja stuff." Ruby clarified before giving Louise a questioning glance. "Right?"
"Yes, like that. Hinata is the ninja." Louise explained, pointing to the pale eyed girl, who ducked her head in embarrassment at having everyone's attention diverted toward her.
-----------------------------
The rest of the ride and following walk through Vale was spent with the group questioning Hinata on her ninja skills... Other than Weiss, who spent the time discussing Terrorist attacks with Louise, the pinkette reciprocating with slightly modified recounting of the Reconquista's actions. A few groups peered out of the shadows and alleyways at them, but none made any aggressive moves.
When they finally arrived at their destination, Louise noticed that the building had been expanded with more conventional construction in Vicky's absence. An outdoor dining area was built to include an awning for shade and a short fence to prevent entry from anywhere other than inside the building. No new floors were added to the step-like structure, but another storage building was being built next to a dock that hadn't been there when they'd left for Beacon. Also of note was the professional quality sign posted above the wide doors.
"Tyne&Fontaine's Kwama Korporation." Jaune read off slowly. Turning his head to the others, he asked, "What does Kwama mean?"
"I don't-" Pyrrha hesitantly began, speaking for the first time since they'd met up with the others.
Only for Yang to forcefully cut her off. "It's not a word I've heard before."
"It isn't a word at all as far as I know." Weiss added, raising a delicate eyebrow toward Louise and Vicky.
Before Hinata or Vicky could let them know just what horrid monsters the creatures were, Louise gave an insincere smile and explained, "It's a livestock animal from where we come from. They don't survive very well in small groups, so nobody ever bothered to export them before we were forced to leave. It's no surprise you haven't heard about them."

from what I recall she decided to attend beacon to escape her fame and with that goal in mind I think she succeeded with flying colors.
