It took her a moment to realize Weiss was still carrying their bags as she ran.
Ruby Rose barely even had time to blink before Weiss suddenly pulled out three decorative, white vials with snowflake symbols on the front. She dropped the bags, undid the caps, and, when a faint white aura appeared around the virals, swiped her arms out in front, pure blue dust spearing through the air like snowflakes. And then the flecks of blue glowed, moving in sync like a gale in a blizzard, all heading for the bomb that was getting even brighter and even redder now.
The dust settled on the bomb.
And then there was ice.
Ruby jumped back as a pillars of sharp, pointed ice suddenly speared through the air. She didn’t need to though, because none of them had come close to hitting her, or Crystal or even the man. In an instant, a towering twenty foot block of ice. Well, blocks, really, with how it seemed like multiple pieces of ice were smooshed together into one bog, spiky-ish ice sculpture.
And at the center, was the bomb, completely frozen. The glow was gone, the tube covered in spider-web cracks, and seemed to be inert.
Ruby turned her head. Weiss was panting slightly, sweat dripping down her forehead, and she slowly lowered her arm.
