Author Note: Hi there! As I love RWBY, I figured I would start writing some fanfiction! I will try to update this as much as possible, but with current studies, I may not be able to keep my word on that. So, let's dig in!
Ahh, another Monday morning in the world of Remnant. And at Beacon academy, it was normally pure bliss for Yang Xiao Long and team RWBY. Yang adored having no lesson in the morning, which meant she had two options:
1: She could lie in, forget all her troubles and cares, and enjoy her sleep
2: She could wake early, and have a massive breakfast and go for a run around the expansive Beacon grounds without trouble.
But this was no ordinary Monday! Yang had been foiled, not by her team of course. They all respected each other to let each other do what they wanted. So, why was Yang not able to sleep or go for a run?
The weather.
Yep, a freak storm had hit Vale and Beacon, and Yang was FED UP! With no choice, she opened her eyes and surveyed her teammates. Blake's enhanced hearing meant she could hear every rumble of thunder as clearly as if she was lying in the sky, with much less comfort. Weiss was fidgeting in her bed, tossing and turning and may as well have been just been surrounded by critters! Ruby was... well... she was Ruby. As much as her team mates thought she was a great leader, and awesome to be around, she was unbelievable in mornings! She was bubbling with energy, and the first to zoom out of the room to go down to the shooting range, hopefully for perfect scores again. Wearily, Yang got out of her bed, and dragged herself into the shower.
Meanwhile, Blake was restless. She wanted to complete a section of work to get ahead of her classes, but the library was closed, but more importantly, the storm made her uneasy. It's sudden appearance, it's violent winds, and bellowing thunder all seemed too frightening.
"Stop it, Blake, you're being a child"
"You are a child, this isn't right"
"You're just paranoid"
"You're a faunas, you know this is not a natural storm"
Her conflicting thoughts didn't help her discomfort, so she also woke, and got dressed.
Predictably, Weiss was annoyed. Damn, what was the point of doing anything today? This storm made everything pointless. "When did I get so moody?" she thought to herself, before remembering her first meeting with Ruby. A huge bolt of lightning right outside the window dragged her out of her thoughts and almost made her fall off her bed as she jumped. "I can't deal with this!" she shouted wildly, as if she was trying to yell the weather away, "We already have enough to deal with without this... storm" she continued. Blake turned sharply to her "WEISS!", somehow finding the energy to yell at her. "Sorry, it's just frustrating" Weiss muttered in reply. Blake didn't say anything, just inwardly chuckled at her team mate's refusal to curse in frustration. Yang came out of the bathroom, as her and Weiss switched. "Hello, Blake" she said silently. Blake turned to her partner in curiosity "I know this weather has got everyone down, but can I not get a 'HELLO BLAKEY' or 'GOOD MORNING PARTNER'? She declared delightfully, hoping to brighten things up. In reply, she got a frown and one small word from Yang "nope".
Weiss and Blake showered with a macabre atmosphere in the room. After they were done, they left the room to find Ruby appearing in a flash, surprising all of them.
"Hello, Good Morning, Salutations Team RWBY!" Ruby proudly proclaimed.
The three other huntresses didn't understand how Ruby could be so cheerful, Ruby stood arms raised into the air as if she was at a festival.
"You are such a child" Weiss complained, but in a slightly more light-hearted way.
"That's because I am one!" "Let's go, we have to see Professor Ozpin now" And with that, she sped off to Ozpin's office. Weiss, Blake and Yang started to trudge off when the realisation hit them.
"Erm, Professor Ozpin's office is through the courtyard" Blake said pensively.
"Which means we have to go..." Weiss started
"through that" Yang finished
The three of them stared wide-eyed into the deadly courtyard, with humongous splodges of rain hitting the flooded courtyard. Thunder conveniently chose to ring out from the heavens, and trees and plants were drenched in water.
"Well, this is a thing." Yang stated bluntly.
"Oh for goodness sake, why do we have to do this? Curse you!" Blake yelled, losing her temper finally.
"OK, girls, let's do this together" Yang said shakily. And with that, the girls ran with all of the very little energy they had into the courtyard.
Ruby was already sat down with Professor Ozpin, him drinking his usual coffee whilst they chatted casually. At this point, the elevator doors opened and Weiss, Blake and Yang, entered the room. Ruby couldn't help but burst out laughing at the state of her partners. Their clothes were absolutely drenched, every fibre of hair, especially in Yang's mane, was dripping rainwater and was dishevelled from the blustering winds. They were panting heavily, and all three of them scowled at Ruby who was still on the floor in tears laughing. They slumped into the other chairs and waited for Ozpin to speak. They knew him, he always spoke words that made you feel better.
With Ruby still laughing, he calmly spoke.
"Well, it seems a bit stormy outside."
