A/N: Hey guys! This is what happens when two FanFic authors, Myself and CC-2224 Commander Cody (Hes an awesome guy! GO check out his work!) Who like world of tanks talk at very strange times of day. Hope you guys enjoy!

Also If anyone wants to platoon with me just drop me a line in WOT. My username is DELTAGOD (Seriously what else would it be)

Ruby Rose, team leader of RWBY at Beacon Academy, was bored…..like really…..really…bored. It was a Saturday morning and Ruby was hanging off the side of her bunk upside down. Her short red and black hair hung towards the ground as she looked on her scroll. She was stuck in the dorm while her teammates, Blake, Yang, and Weiss were out doing things that "Didn't involve her" as Weiss had put it. Ruby had decided that today she was going to explore the school and find something to do. She turned to hop off her bunk but her foot caught the rope and she fell out of bed with about as much grace as an overweight-Ursa. She was suspended upside down as Zwei came over and licked her face.

"Stop it Zwei! I will be right back… OK?" Ruby looked to Zwei, team RWBY's mascot, as she looked through her wardrobe. She received a bark of acknowledgement form Zwei before she opened the drawer and was met with her cape and everyday outfit. She threw on her normal hooded outfit and left the dorm making sure to lock it, lest she acquire the wrath of "Little miss security", Weiss, who insists on locking the already locked door. After about an hour Ruby had run out of places to see that she had not yet seen.

"Well….that's it! I've seen every room in this…Computer lab?" Ruby's attention was caught by the door to a room that she had never used herself or for that fact, seen anyone else use…ever! Ruby made her way to the room and opened the door. She looked in and found a few dozen computers all lined up in their own cubicles. Ruby passed by the dormant computers, waiting for dust-knows how long for someone to use them. Ruby sat down at one of the consoles and entered in her information. She greeted with a desktop screen and several icons.

"OK….Dusttube it is." Ruby said as she launched up the browser. Ruby spent a half-an-hour on the website watching videos before she played a few flash games. She was about to log out when something caught her eye. The writing was in a strange language that she had never seen before.

"Hmm…this looks cool?" Ruby said half-heartedly as she was running out of fuel an about ready to head back to the dorm. The icon was a silver banner with three strange looking tanks in the middle, they were treaded? Ruby had never seen a treaded tank in person so maybe a game with them would be the next best thing! Ruby clicked the button and was transported to a website that showed a big silver logo at the top.

"World of tanks? Hmm." Ruby was studying the picture in the background. There were several tanks in the background. The vehicles had various markings on them. This perplexed Ruby as no military on Remnant had that decal on their military vehicles.

"What is this…oh there's a trailer." Ruby clicked the play button and started watching.

Sometime later

Yang was worried, like really, really worried. Her sister wasn't answering her calls on her scroll, nor was she responding to her messages.

"What if she was kidnapped?!" Yang started spewing nonsense at this point.

"I'm sure there's a simpler..." Blake started as yang interrupted.

"She's gone and she hasn't answered her scroll!" Yang started hyperventilating at this point.

"As Blake said, Yang, I'm sure Ruby is still…." Weiss started but was cut off by the oxygen-deprived Yang.

"She's not here and we didn't see her where we were." Weiss sighed as Yang kept blabbering on. Then. Blake had an idea as she sat down on her bed.

"Why don't we look for her?" Yang shot up and she locked eyes with Blake.

"That may just be an idea that will work." Weiss sighed as Yang left the room and Blake just shrugged at Weiss. They hand spent the past 20 minutes looking through all the classrooms in the school and hadn't come up with a single trace of where Ruby was.

"Well I don't know where she could be." Weiss said with a shrug. Blake was about to say something when she noticed a faint glow coming from under the door to the…computer lab?

"Someone's in the computer lab?" Blake said as Yang and Weiss looked equally confused as why someone would use the computer lab. Then one thing clicked in all their heads, Ruby gets bored, Ruby wanders, Ruby finds weird places to entertain herself in, team spends long time finding her, rinse and repeat.

The trailer had just finished and Ruby was sitting there starring slack jawed at the screen. Ruby found her hand slowly moving the mouse towards the bright red "Download Now!" Button when the door to the computer lab burst open. Ruby fell of her chair and clicked high and right closing the page.

"RUBY! Are you in here?" Ruby was upside down off the chair as she yelled back.

"Yes Yang, now help me up." Ruby flailed as Weiss and Blake assisted her up with Yang silently laughing in the background.

"What were you doing here?" Weiss asked Ruby as Yang was still laughing near the door.

'Hmmm I think I'll just keep the game to myself for now' Ruby thought as they all started leaving the computer room.

"I was just bored and decided to watch some videos and play some games." Ruby said as she shrugged and walked into their dorm.

"Alright, Yang and I are going to study in the library for Professor Ports test on Monday." Blake said as she pulled Yang out of the room by her ear. Ruby could hear Yang's protests against studying on the weekend, alas, Blake was having none of it. Ruby turned to Weiss who just stared at her before turning around and sitting down at the desk and starting on some papers her father sent her over the weekend.

Ruby let out a long sigh before climbing onto her bed and booting up her laptop. 'What was that game called? Oh right, World of Tanks.' Ruby mused as she searched on the internet and came across the page.

"OK let's see…." Ruby mumbled to herself as she found the "create account" button and started the download process. She quickly skimmed through the tutorials and noticed that the game works on a HP system.

"That's interesting…." Ruby said to herself as she was watching the video on armor thickness and how to angle your armor. Ruby flipped back to the launcher and saw that it was almost done. She was quite excited to play this game, it was different that the other games she played with yang one Play Cube 3. The game appeared to have seven different nations that Ruby had not heard of. Ruby just paid no mind to that as the game finished downloading and the big red "PLAY" button lit up. Ruby was bouncing slightly on her bunk as her laptop booted up World of Tanks.

The login screen appeared and it showed a tank hiding behind a pile of rubble while a smaller tank circled around it, although its shell appeared to be bouncing off the side of the turret while a much larger gun poked in from the screens direction. Ruby tapped in her credentials. She hit enter and several turning gears appeared as the game loaded the garage.

When the loading was done Ruby was treated to an underground warehouse of sorts, there was an open door in the back and sparks were flying by it. 'This looks quite dirty' Ruby mused as she looked at the center of the screen and saw the most adorable vehicle. It had what looked like two machine guns poking out the sides and was really tall and stubby on the sides and rear. It was a Vickers medium MK I, or at least, that's what the game called it. Next to its name was a button that said "research".

Ruby clicked the button and was brought to another page where it showed lines drawn to various picture and with vehicles on the far right. Ruby spent several minutes glazing over the various types of tanks and the nations. She learned that there were five different types of tanks. Light, Medium, Heavy, Tank Destroyers, and SPG's. She didn't really fancy the SPG as it looked like a tank you sat back in supporting those up front. She also didn't take an interest in the Heavy tank as it looked too slow and bulky for her liking. Next was the Tank destroyers, quick, agile, and packing a punch. Seemed like her kind of tank. The light tanks looked too flimsy and weak for her taste. Finally came the medium tanks, also capable of punching above their weight while retaining some armor and speed.

Ruby decided after a few minutes that she was going to pick both the Medium tank and the Tank destroyers simply because she couldn't settle on which one was better. She also picked the country that was named the "UK" by the game. Ruby hadn't gotten a chance to look at the tanks stats or the armament as she accidentally clicked the big, red "Battle" button.

"Looks like I can just… whoops!" Ruby panicked slightly as she moved to click the cancel button as the screen faded to black and the picture of a map popped up with a list of players appeared. Ruby observed that they all had the tank they were in next to their name. Ruby was near the top of the list. The ma she was playing on was called "Mines", it appeared as though she started in the southern end of the map.

She swiveled her camera around as a clock started ticking down. Her left hand moved to the standard WASD key position, while her right hand tightened on her mouse. The clocked ticked down, engines revved, 3….2….1…GO! Ruby sped forward at a blistering 14 Kmh. Ruby was less than thrilled.

"What! Why is it soooooooooo slow?" Ruby whined as she followed the tank in front of her up a central hill. The tanks slowed to a crawl as they ascended the gentle slope. Then out of nowhere a red dot popped up in front of them and a tank was underneath of it. Ruby assumed it was the enemy, put her sights on it, and fired! The shell missed by so much it would have hit in a different postcode than Ruby's target. Ruby waited and fired again, this time waiting for the circle in the middle of her screen to get smaller. Impact! A red -44 rose from the red tank.

"Wait! Oh… it's a hit point system… Ohhhhh." Ruby carried on as the enemy started firing, except he had an auto cannon.

"OW, OW, OW! Stop it!" Ruby quietly yelled as to not disturb Weiss, who had taken up a studying position at their desk. Ruby's health was dropping fast as she skirted around a rock just as an ally blew up behind her. Three more explosions were heard as the counter at the top started shifting. 2:4, 2…. No now 2:9. The list of her teammates was slowly getting darker as more and more of her ally's fell. A red tank sped around the corner and Ruby fired a single shell into it. The tank exploded as its turret flew off and instead of red letters, gold letters with a -130 and three bullets flew up from it.

"Whoa… nice ammo rack!" The chat said as one of her teammates congratulated her.

"Thanks :)" She typed back as two tanks rushed around the corner and pelted her with shells. Her health hit zero and she exploded, well her tank at least. Ruby looked at the death screen and the burning wreckage of her tank as the game instructed her to return to the garage. Ruby obeyed and was pushed back into the garage. She had only been waiting for two minutes when the burning wreck of her tank popped up in front of her. She sighed as the results popped up. Several thousand credits and 200 EXP. Ruby perked up as she went to the research tree and silently squealed as she purchased the next gun, an auto cannon, and the next treads and engine for her tank. Ruby gave out a sigh of relief as she heard Blake and Yang approaching? How long had she been doing this?

"How long was I on here?" Ruby asked herself as she looked at the clock. Two hours had passed in the time it took her to do one battle and install the game. Oh well, she'll get to play another time, maybe tomorrow? Yeah that would work. Ruby sighed one last time before logging out and closing her laptop.

A/N: Hope you guys liked it. It was a little hard writing this, but if you do play with me in WOT you may be featured as a character in the next chapter. See you on the battlefield.
