Ch. 1 Late Start

"Yang." spoke a low, calm feminine voice.

"Seems she's not wanting to wake up." she whispered to someone.

"Here, let me try." replied a haughty, higher pitched tone.

"Yang!" yelled out the same voice that spoke. "Hmm that didn't seem to work either."

"Step aside, friends. I got this." declared a lively, younger sounding voice. "YANG!"

A blonde haired girl still dressed in her street clothes stirred violently from her sleep and sat up on her bed. "Huh?! What?! What is it?!" spoke an alarmed Yang as her eyes attempted to adjust to the morning light. Once she could finally see, Yang realized it was Ruby, Blake, and Weiss all staring at her.

"Glad to see you're finally awake, sis." Ruby said with a grin.

"We thought you were going to sleep in all day." added in the faunus girl.

"And…" Yang took a moment to give a long yawn. "Why shouldn't I? It's the weekend already." spoke the blonde girl as she relaxed and fell back into bed.

"Actually, it's not. Today is Friday, and you're about to be late for class." Weiss pointed out as a matter of fact.

"Wait, WHAT?!" cried out Yang as she hurriedly launched out of her bunk. "I could've sworn today was Saturday. Crap, crap, crap. I'm gonna be late again." thinking out loud as the blonde brawler rummaged through her clothes for her school uniform.

"That's what you get for staying out late partying again." said Weiss in a motherly tone as she wagged her finger in the air.

"Give me a break, Weiss. It's me and it's near the end of the semester, how can I not be out celebrating?" replied Yang as she started to swap out her clothes.

"Well considering how many tardies and absences you've had, you can't exactly afford to be late anymore. Otherwise, the school might force you to take summer school to make up for all the classes you've missed. And none of us want that for you." stated Blake as she noted her concern for her friend.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. And that would be sooo lame."

"Sooo for the last two weeks of school no more missing class or showing up late, got it?"

"Got it." answered back Yang to her sister as she adjusted her school jacket.

"And no more partying either." added in Weiss. "At least until you're done." She smiled at the end of her statement.

"Fine, fine, you guys got me. I promise to stay focused on school until it's all over. There, I said it, happy?" replied Yang with her usual cocky smirk.

"Yep, now hurry up, slowpoke. We waited for you all morning." Ruby teasingly stuck her tongue out at her sister.

Yang grabbed her schoolbag and proceeded to head out the door with her teammates. "Hey, how come you guys didn't try to wake me up earlier by shaking me or something?"

"We've tried that before and you're as grouchy as an Ursa in the morning, or Weiss when she hasn't had enough beauty sleep."

"Hey!"

"Anyways, the last time we tried to you knocked all three of us to the other side of the room." explained Blake.

"Would you say that I was… un'bear'able in my sleep?"

Yang's fellow team members gave unamused glances to their friend's usual humor.

"It's way too early for that." cried out Weiss.

"Hey, I know." suggested the team leader. "I'll race you guys to class."

"Umm pass."

"Ruby, you beat us every time anyways."

"What? No, I don't." scoffed the silver-eyed girl trying to be cool. "I won't even use my Semblance. What about you, Yang? Yang?" Ruby looked in the direction of her sister to find her already gone. "Where'd she go?"

"You're way behind, sis!" called out the blonde haired girl who was already near the end of the hallway sticking her tongue out to her.

"I'll get you, Yang!" confidently answered back the young huntress as she began to bolt towards her sister.

"Are we really doing this?"

"It sure looks that way."

"Fine." said the heiress grudgingly.

"It should be fun." spoke the cat faunus with a smile.

Weiss simply smiled back as her and Blake also started sprinting through the campus to catch up with their friends. So begins a late but energetic start for Team RWBY's morning.
