Hello adorable humans! This is primarily going to be a bumblebee fic, but it will have WhiteRose and some Crosshares on the side :P After reading this one Manga a couple of months back, I had this idea floating around in my head for a while, and then finally thought 'meh, why the hell not!' and now here we are with a new RWBY fic! Without further ado...

uh here.


Yang could feel a smirk slowly form on her face as she intently watched one of the cabaret dancers take over the dance floor. For her 22nd birthday, her best friend Pyrrha and a couple of her other close friends decided to surprise her by taking her to a Cabaret Space. It had some weird name to it... if the blonde could recall correctly, it was called the Forever Hall. The place had a classy vibe; what with the sleek, Blackwood tables and the red-velvet cushioned booths situated against the facility's garnet-coloured walls. The entire dance hall was also dimly lit with incandescent lights, which actually kind of hurt the blonde's eyes - if she was being quite honest.

The bar space was placed at the far end of the room, and incidentally was also used as a gimmick for the performers. It was basically a stage too. In the middle of the Forever Hall was a dance floor. It was strictly made for the Cabaret dancers use only... well, unless one of the dancers decided to invite a customer over. Then that was fair game. It was riddled with dancers of every gender or species of any kind. The music was slow, sensual; allowing the dancers to bewitch anybody who fell prey to their movements.

However, Yang only had her eyes on one specific, masked dancer ever since she's been to the Cabaret that night.

The blonde also noted with satisfaction that the said dancer seemed to have her eyes on her too.

They both held each other's gaze as the black-haired woman moved seductively to the rhythm of the music. Yang didn't think that she could ever forget those amber eyes; as they seemed to bore deep into the blonde's soul. She felt vulnerable under the other woman's stare, borderline scared even. There was a feral sense of seduction that this woman held, and Yang could feel that she was probably going to be this dancer's next victim. The woman was wearing a slick, black mask that only covered her eyes. Even so, the blonde could tell that she was breathtakingly beautiful.

Yang's eyes then travelled over the dancer's body and she physically had to bite down a groan.

The woman was wearing a tightly-fitted black corset, along with a lacy black skirt that flared out just enough so that her undergarments wouldn't show. Her milky, toned legs were exposed for all to see and left little for the imagination. The woman's arms were slender, but toned too. She also noted that one of the dancer's arms adorned a Faunus Tribal arm band tattoo, which Yang thought was pretty cool.

The blonde brought her gaze back to the dancer's face, and she saw that the woman was smiling in approval.

"Jesus, Yang. You might as well undress her for real if you're going to undress her with your eyes like that."

Yang playfully rolled her eyes and she finally ripped her gaze away from the dancer, "Shut up, Sun!"

"I'm just saying!" he laughed as he raised his arms in defence, "you've been staring at that girl for a while."

"He's right!" Pyrrha suddenly piped in from the blonde's left side. "Your eyes have been glued on that dancer since we've stepped foot into this place."

She swatted at her tall redheaded friend, "And? What do you guys want me to do?" Yang asked, "Ask her if she wants to dance? That's against the rules. They have to be the ones to invite us over."

Pyrrha thoughtfully sat in silence at Yang's words. However, she perked up, and the blonde could basically see a light bulb pop up on top of her head as she thought of an idea.

"Lets tell them its your birthday!"

"Wha-?!"

"HEY WAITER!" Sun hollered. The birthday girl immediately went to pounce on the blonde monkey Faunus to shut him up, but Pyrrha effectively prevented her from doing so by grabbing at her shoulders. She then opted to open her mouth to voice her disagreement with their plan, but the tall redhead covered it with one of her hands. The blonde gave the both of them a baleful look.

Soon, a rather tall bearded man approached their table.

"Is there a problem here, sir?"

Both Pyrrha and Yang immediately took their hands off each other and straightened up. To any normal person, it probably seemed like they were fighting; and they both didn't feel like getting kicked out of the dance hall.

Sun gave the girls a bemused look before turning to the waiter, "Nope, no problems at all!"

"It's actually our friend's birthday today!" Pyrrha jumped in as she basically presented Yang to the waiter. The blonde simply sat there in embarrassed silence, and just let her friends continue with their scheme.

"and we were wondering if there were any benefits that came with that..." the redhead continued, trying to hint at what they wanted.

The said waiter just gave them a blank look. He then sighed, "Look, if you want to fuck-"

"NO!" Yang blurted out, "God- No, that's not what I want!"

Both Pyrrha and Sun guffawed at what the waiter insinuated from the tall redhead's suggestive question. Yang huffed and made a mental note of murdering her so-called friends at the end of the night.

"N-No! ahahaha! I-I was just going to ask if she could get a free lap dance or something!" Pyrrha clarified as she giggled. The bearded waiter let out a small 'oh' at the clarification, and then smiled widely at them.

"Well why didn't you say so?" he exclaimed, "Birthday boys or girls get to pick whatever dancers they want for the night!"

Pyrrha perked up yet again, and turned excitedly towards Yang. The blonde was about to say something, but then yelped out in surprise when she felt Sun slap her shoulder good-naturedly.

"Go ask for the one you've been ogling the entire evening!"

"Yeah, get the kitty cat!"

The bearded waiter quirked a brow at Sun's borderline racist description of the girl's Faunus traits, "The Kitty-? Oh. You want Blake?!"

Yang didn't know if she liked the incredulousness in the man's voice or not. She shrugged, "I-If that's her name, then yeah."

"She's pretty selective with her clientele, but I'll go see what I can do." and with that, the man swiftly left to go find the dark-haired dancer called 'Blake.' When he was out of earshot, she abruptly turned towards her meddling friends.

"I don't know if I should thank, or kill you two!"

They both responded by laughing at the blonde. She huffed, and crossed her arms in slight annoyance; however, she couldn't help but smile as she knew that they did all of this in good nature. Soon, she found herself joining them in laughter.

"Ooooh what's so funny?"

"Yeah! I want in on the joke too!"

"Nora, slow down. You're going to fall..."

Yang turned her head towards the new voices, and her smile widened. Currently making their way towards her were the rest of the crew who brought her here today. Neptune was sauntering over, nursing a prissy fruity drink in his hands. The blonde had to stifle a giggle when she saw that he had a bendy straw for the beverage too. He was totally rocking the 'Big Guy with a Prissy Drink' trope at the moment. Nora and Ren, on the other hand, had some simple beers in their hands. They seemed more or less so normal; well, Yang did notice that Nora was stumbling every so often. So maybe the strawberry blonde had a little more to drink than her dark-haired boyfriend.

"Oh Yang's just gonna get a birthday lap dance from one of the Cabaret dancers!" Pyrrha exclaimed, a little too loudly. The mentioned blonde raised her arms in pure exasperation at the redhead's words. Despite her distressed reaction, the tall redhead's loud disclosure of what Yang was going to get was met with laughter. Yang playfully glared at her best friend, but then the angered expression slowly wiped off her face when Pyrrha began to smile wickedly at what was behind her. The blonde tilted her head in confusion. She then made the horrible mistake of turning around while she sipped the beer she was nursing.

Yang immediately choked on her drink, and actually had to spit some of it out. She mentally smacked her head against the table at her idiotic actions.

Oh that's attractive...

She then feebly looked up at the woman who caused Yang to basically spit take.

Amber eyes were gazing back at her, with an amused glint shimmering within them. Yang actually got lost in those eyes for a moment... well that is, until the woma- Blake, had coughed to fully get her attention. She seemed to snap out of it, and awkwardly smiled at the Faunus dancer.

"So... are you the birthday girl?"

Yang had to actively prevent herself from shivering, and she slowly nodded in response to the dancer's question. Blake's voice should've been freaking illegal! It was all raspy and sultry and-GAH! Granted, the blonde knew that she probably didn't speak like that in real life, and it was most likely a part of her act... but oh my God.

Yang was turned on.

Like really turned on.

Suddenly, she yelped out in surprise as her chair had been dragged backwards and jolted to the side so her friends could also see. She stared up at Blake with awe, as Yang knew that she was a relatively heavy person. Blake simply smiled back at her, and winked. Yang then leaned back into her chair when the dark-haired dancer closed in on her. Soon, the Faunus girl was straddling her lap, and she slowly began to move her hips to the rhythm of the music. Blake locked her gaze on her next victim, and she licked her lips as she smiled at the blonde.

There was something borderline feral with the way that the dancer sized her up.

"Enjoy the show," Blake began, "and happy birthday..."

Yang gulped.

Holy Shit.


"Shit!"

Blake looked at the clock on the bedside table to see if she read the time correctly.

Yup... 7:56AM.

She groaned, as she knew that they were probably going to be late at this point. Blake mentally cursed her 'past, last night' self because she knew that she brought this onto her present self. Regardless, a small smile crept onto her face when she thought about the events that played out during the time. After she gave that blonde girl her 'birthday lap dance,' she actually expected the girl to take her home. Instead of doing that, the girl invited her over to her table to hang out for the night. Surprisingly, Blake had accepted the invitation. She didn't really know why she did, and didn't think much of it. Anyways, the girl had proven to be really sweet and her friends were good company too. Under normal circumstances, Blake actually might have asked her on a date afterwords. However, she made some strict rules for herself; and vowed to not have romantic relations with any of the clients that she had at Forever Hall.

Before she could get lost in her thoughts, the quiet shuffling of the bedsheets brought her back to reality. Blake turned around to face the person she shared the bed with, and smiled warmly at them.

"M-Mama?"

Blake immediately embraced the tiny Faunus girl next to her, and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Good morning, Ebony."

"mmhn..." the child more, or less so, responded, "What time is it, Mama?"

Blake began to play with her child's raven hair. Her hand started stroking the top of the Faunus girl's head, and she lazily made her way to Ebony's Cat ears. She stroked little circles on the back of the girl's Faunus appendages, and soon she could hear the small girl purring at the sensation. Blake giggled at the content that Ebony had displayed towards her actions, and she slowly moved her hand to stroke the tips of the Faunus girl's hair. It was subtle, but there were dark red tints of colour at the end of Ebony's hair.

One of the only traits that she adopted from her father.

Blake winced at the thought of the man, but then she immediately pushed him out of her mind.

No... he's not a part of your life anymore. You don't have to think about him.

"Mama?" Ebony questioned feebly. Blake noticed that she stopped with her motions, and she probably caused her daughter to worry a little. "It's..." she looked at the clock behind her, and tried not to scream, "Oh no, it's 8:05AM!"

"W-What!?"

Blake immediately jumped out of bed, and began scrambling to get Ebony's outfit ready for the day. Ebony simply sat up in awe at the comical way in which her mother was quickly moving about in the room. Suddenly, Blake yanked her child out of bed and began dressing her up. She chose a simple outfit for the girl, and nodded at her own choices when she finished dressing her. The Faunus child was currently sporting black, knee-length shorts and a cute white tank top with a little picture of an outlined fish on the front of it. Blake then decided to top off the outfit with one of her own black cardigans, seeing that Ebony didn't have any cardigans of her own. Who knows? It might be a little chilly... and she didn't want her child to get a cold.

I should buy her more clothes... it's ridiculously obvious that the cardigan belongs to an adult.

Ebony, however, seemed pretty satisfied with her outfit and began running around the room. With the way that she ran with the cardigan flowing right behind her, Blake was pretty sure that her child was treating it like a cape. She shook her head and smiled at the little Faunus girl's antics.

Blake was suddenly jolted upright when she heard the ringing from her scroll on the bedside table. She bent over to see who it was, and she quirked a brow at the caller I.D. She swiftly swiped at the screen to answer it, and she put her friend on speaker phone.

"Weiss?"

"Morning, Blake."

Blake smiled, "Morning... er, why are you-?"

"I saw that Ebony wasn't at the University's day care yet, and figured that you were late." Weiss answered with a tinge of amusement. Blake inwardly thank the good lord for sending Weiss to her rescue.

"Do you think you can give us a-"

"Blake." Weiss interrupted, "that's why I'm here. I'll be waiting at the front door; and you don't need to bother with making Ebony lunch. I've got some here for her."

Blake audibly sighed at that, "Thank you so much, Weiss!"

"No problem." and with that, she hung up.

The Faunus woman simply smiled down at the phone. Even though Weiss was a rather curt, and well... abrasive person; she was actually a good girl once you got past her cold exterior. Over the years, the white-haired woman became one of Blake's best friends. She was there through the thick and thin of it all; and she was there during Blake's pregnancy too. Blake would be forever grateful to the woman, since she was also one of the few people who helped her escape-

"Mama!"

"W-Wha?"

Ebony gave her a pointed look. Blake had to bite down a gushing squeal because it was like looking at an adorable, cranky-looking replica of herself. "Lets goooo! Aunty Weiss doesn't like it when you keep her waiting too long!"

Blake tilted her head at that, and a mischievous glint began to shine in her eyes."Are you... afraid of Aunty Weiss?" the Faunus woman teased. Ebony rolled her eyes, "Noo... but I am sort of afraid of what she might do to you..."

Wow... Ebony actually made a good point. Shortly after her daughter pointed that out, Blake found herself quickly dressing herself up to get ready for the day. She opted to wear dark denim jeans along with a simple white, form-fitting sweatshirt. The outfit was pretty simple, but it was also all she could manage to do with so little time. She dared to look at the digital clock again.

8:10.

Shit.

"Alright lets go!"

Before Ebony could even reply, Blake grabbed her and bolted out of their apartment.


"Mama, slow down!"

Blake decided to ignore Ebony's plea, and treaded on at her quick pace while she essentially dragged the small Faunus girl beside her. While they were borderline running through the University's halls, Blake could sense that they were receiving weird stares from the students around them. If it was because they were Faunus, or that she was a young Faunus mother, she didn't know; nor did she really care. She started panting.

How BIG is this fucking school!?

"Sweetie, we can't slow down! We're already so late!"

"Bu-!"

"Ah! There it is!" At the end of the hall, Blake could read a rainbow-coloured sign that had the words 'VALE U DAY CARE' on it. She let out a sigh of relief, and began walking towards it with her child in tow. As they were walking, Blake made sure to relay the rules that she set up for Ebony to follow while she was gone.

"Okay, remember to be nice to the other kids!" the Faunus woman began.

"Okay!"

"But if any of them start bullying you for being... different, you gotta stand up for yourself!"

"Mhmm!"

"And I'll be done classes at around 4:30PM today. So if anyone other than Weiss or Coco try to get you before then, what do you do?"

Ebony beamed up at her mother, "Say no! And if they grab me, I scream 'stranger danger!' or 'Fire! Fire!'"

Blake nodded in satisfaction at her daughter's answers. When they finally made it to the entrance of the day care, she stopped and gently grabbed her daughter by the shoulders. She then bent down, and gave Ebony a kiss on the forehead.

"Be good, okay?"

Ebony gave her a toothy grin, "I will!" Blake smiled fondly at the girl and ruffled her head before opening the door. When she did so, she was met with a vibrantly coloured day care room; with children running all over the place. There were toys riddled everywhere on the far side of the room, and closer to the front was where all the tiny round tables were situated. Her gaze then fell onto another adult in the room, who was playing a little game with a couple of the kids. The Faunus woman was actually surprised when she saw that the woman was a little younger Blake herself. The woman had striking silver eyes, and dark hair that hints of red tint at its ends.

Soon, the woman took notice of her and smiled.

"You must be Ms. Belladonna and Ebony!"

Blake was silently taken aback with how accepting this woman seemed to be. Normally, her and her daughter would receive suspicious, judgemental stares but this day care teacher wasn't judgemental at all. The Faunus woman let out a small sigh at that. It was honestly refreshing to meet more open-minded people.

Blake smiled apologetically at the teacher, "Yes! That's us! And I'm so sorry that we're late..."

The teacher waved a hand dismissively at that, "Oh don't worry about that, Ms. Belladonna! This day care is made for women and students with busy schedules. So it's not uncommon to have a couple of tardy kids every once in a while!"

"Oh..." Blake lamely responded, she then smiled at the girl, "please, call me Blake."

The teacher returned the smile, "In that case, call me Ruby!"

"Alright, Rub-"

"Hey Rubes?"

The Faunus woman's eyes widened in utter fear when she realized who the new voice belonged to. She didn't dare to turn around; she did not want to risk the new person recognizing her. She felt that if the day care program knew that she worked as a Cabaret dancer, they wouldn't take Ebony in. And she needed them to look after her while she was in class.

She didn't have anyone else to fall back to in that regard. Weiss and Coco also had school too!

"Uhh... I think I grabbed your lunch by accident and- oh hi!"

Blake inwardly screamed.

She then stepped to the side so the other woman could get through, and replied without actually looking her in the eye. "Um.. Hi." she muttered quietly.

"M-Mam-oof!"

Blake literally covered Ebony's entire face with her hand.

Sorry Ebony!

However, her daughter somehow managed to pry Blake's hand off her face and she continued to question her. "Mama, you're acting really weird..."

"Ebony!" Blake whispered harshly, "Not now."

Blake then made the fatal mistake of checking if the blonde woman before them was still staring at them... and she was.

Oh my GOD.

Suddenly, the woman gasped in realization and started grinning like a madwoman. Blake, on the other hand, broke out in a cold sweat and was trying to plan an escape route. The window at the far side of the day care room seemed very inviting. Regardless if they were on the second floor of the building. It would seem that Ebony sensed the fear in her mother, and began to defend her without the two unsuspecting women knowing it.

"I know you! You're that-AGH, SHIT!"

Blake watched with horror as Ebony straight up kicked the blonde woman in the shin.

"Stay away from Mama! You're freaking her out!"

"What the hell-!? Wait..."

The Faunus woman sighed.

Here it comes...

"Is this your kid!?"

Oh this is going to be a long day...


Welpppp there it is! I've got a loooot of plans for this fic, so it's probably going to be another long-ish story! Dw, I'm still gonna be working on the 'Days of Our Lives' fic on the side too (with that one taking priority). I just couldn't help but start this one! I hope you guys will like it!
