Weiss has to attend the charity event and somehow convince Bleached Stalin to let her leave the country during a global communications blackout. Harsh, emotionally abusive dickhead or not, that's just bad parenting.

And Blake would have to be given a reason to go to the place where she knows the homicidal psychopath she used to date has a very good chance of being, as after she left he said it was past time he headed back to Mistral. You are assuming a lot of things here. First off, even if we allow that Weiss won't be sent to Mistral on some continuation of the SDC charm operation being pushed by Jaques, all she really needs is someone who can pilot an airship to take her to Mistral whether she has his blessing or not. With Yang it is really just a matter of getting help from her father's friends who were her professors at Beacon and probably have some juice. Blake didn't suggest she wasn't thinking of confronting the White Fang, only that she wanted to sort some things out first. Presuming that basically amounts to something with her family, she could be ready or at least willing to risk confrontation.

It's just a matter of how much crap they'll have to deal with till then. There is some sort of Tundra or snowy mountain area just outside Mistral.
