Forced Equality
AN The stories title might be changed and this fanfiction was written purely for fun.
RWBY is owned and created by RoosterTeeth.
Summary: The White Fang has come up with a new violent and forceful way to make faunas the superior race and involves a certain heiress.
"Allllllright Team RWBY! Another great day of classes and then our Team weekend!" Ruby bellows waking up the rest of the team with all her cheer. Groans rumble throughout the room which only causes Ruby to smile. Yang leaps down from her bunk, slams into Weiss and stumbles back onto Blake's foot.
"Yang could you please act with some sort of decorum?" Weiss said but immediately ended what would be an argument by walking into the bathroom with her belongings to get ready for the morning.
"Sheesh. She needs to chill, its Friday!" Yang exclaimed. Blake moves around Yang and stomps on her foot to get to her wardrobe. "UM OW." Yang says nursing her foot as Ruby just quietly giggles to herself about her teams antics. Yang quickly gets over it and also gets ready.
"So first lesson to start the day is… Grimm studies. Yay." Ruby says unenthusiastically. Two groans respond.
"Friday officially ruined." Yang grumbles.
"Well I for one think Professor Port's stories are to be learned from. It is always beneficial to hear a Huntsman's exp-" ignoring Weiss' wisdom as she enters.
"Last one there buys drinks!" Yang races out with Ruby, leaving Blake and Weiss behind in the dorm room.
They both glance at each other. "It's early." Blake reasons and Weiss nods her agreement and they both prepare to casually walk to the cafeteria. As they step out the dorm door however Blake turns to see Weiss sprinting down the hallway. "HEY!" Blake shouts at the betrayal as she also makes a run to breakfast.
Arriving in the cafeteria late and out of breath she walks up to the table with both Team JNPR and Team RWBY at their table with Weiss slightly out of breath. "Hey Blake! Late to the party. You owe us drinks." Yang muses.
"I suppose I do," she states looking Weiss in the eyes. "don't I?" Weiss has the decency to look guilty. "I'll go with you Blake." She offers. "You sure you won't sprint away?" Blake counters.
"Of course not." Weiss offers again with a nervous look. At the vending machine Weiss ends up paying for the drinks out of guilt for the faunus girl.
"How generous of you." Blake remarks, gathering her drink choices.
Walking back to give their team mates with the drinks they hear shouting near the vending machine and turn to look in that direction only to find Cardin Winchester harassing yet another faunas student. "Are you sure an animal like you even deserves to be here?" Cardin gets in the dog faunas' face and spits while Blake just looked in horror and shame at the scene unable to do anything. "Disgusting," but before Cardin could say any more to the faunas he was suddenly launched back into a wall and effectively knocked out. Blake looks at the lingering snowflake crested glyph in shock.
"Weiss?" Blake asks.
"He had it coming." was all Weiss responded with and continued to walk back to their friends. Blake just scowled at the response but inwardly felt elated that the heiress actively tried to defend the faunas in her own way. To Blake it only showed that the heiress' views on the faunas have somewhat improved.
"Thanks Weiss." she told to her retreating back and Weiss just hmph'd trying to play it cool.
"Okay. So carbonated water for Yang, carbonated water for Ruby, carbonated water for Weiss and Water for me." Blake gave out the drinks. Ruby and Yang looked horrified at the drink choice but Weiss took it as penance for tricking her.
"Your the worst Blake!" Ruby shouted in mock anger while Yang scowled at the drink like an enemy.
"I lost so had to do the right thing… with some assistance." Blake acknowledged Weiss' addition. "It'll wake you up ready for Port anyway." She reasoned. Ruby handed Weiss an apple and Yang gave Blake a tuna sandwich so they could all eat quickly and get to class early, no thanks to Weiss' timing preference.
As they ate they listened to another one of Nora's crazy stories but most likely glorified event and/or dream, something about… pancake grimm? Once they finished breakfast they all headed over to professor Ports class and prepared to try to stay awake. "I'll see you all on the other side." Ruby said dramatically as she took her seat on the edge of the bench.
"Oh hush, don't be so dramatic." Weiss said with a faux frown, neatening her pages on the desk ready to write Professor Port's entire lecture onto paper. Blake took her place next to Weiss as Yang sat down next to her, now in their seats it wouldn't be long before Port showed up to blurt a story.
"Soooo, what you got planned for us tomorrow sis?" Yang leaned onto the big wood desk in front of her.
"Well I'm glad you asked Yang because the other day I noticed our weapons looked a bit saddened and needed some high level, luxurious maintenance and I know just the pla-"
"What Ruby's true intentions are is to go to see the new bakery in Vale due to their popularity in cookie baking under the guise of weapon maintenance. Am I wrong?" Weiss interrupted with a smirk towards Ruby.
"...no." She responded glumly. "But! I do think we can also give our weapons some pro love and enjoy our day out in Vale for some very special team bonding!" Ruby tried to fix.
"I'm down." Yang said with a grin.
"As am I." Blake agreed and everyone looked to Weiss who sighed.
"While I'm not opposed-"
"Great! That's a plan for tomorrow!" Ruby quickly said as Professor Port walked into class.
"Okay students settle down." Port said with a loud cheery voice to quiet his students. "We'll be focusing some more on the topic of beowolf anatomy!" He seemed excited, everyone knew it was just the beginning of another long story with no actual anatomy. Ruby already began the process of doodling while Weiss waited for the story to make sure not to miss anything, Yang leaned back to stare at the wall directly and Blake was already zoned out but looked somewhat attentive.

The bell signalling the end of Grimm studies. Team RWBY exit in a hurry towards Professor Goodwitch's combat lesson. "Oh man! I can feel it, she'll totally pick me today! I'll get to meet other weap- people and their styles some more!" Ruby exclaimed happily, bouncing up and down the corridor.
"Ruby please, you get to watch people fight either way." Weiss imputed.
"Hmmm, its not the same Weiss! I like to test my baby." she countered hugging her scythe to herself.
"Weiss you won't win in this argument." Yang said with a pat to her back.
Barging through the bustling students already exiting Professor Goodwitch's classroom Team RWBY once again took their seats at another one of their regular desks and awaited their teacher. "Okay, plan. If its doubles we'll beat them easy with all our plotted strategies but if its practice then a group free for all." Ruby said in a hushed voice.
"Excuse me? A free for all?" Weiss sounded offended.
"Hey Weissy its okay to admit you prefer one on one." Yang threw that insult in the air for grabs.
"Apologies for preferring not to use underhanded strategies." She took the bait. "Besides, I'm plenty competent enough to beat down a brute such as yourself."
"Your on Princess, if you beat me I'll be your pack horse for a week." Yang exclaimed with a chuckle. Weiss just smirked which made Ruby start to worry.
"Well for all your sakes I hope you don't think about winning because you can't beat a ninja in a battle of wits and stealth never mind a free for all." Blake decided to add fuel to the fire.
"Ha you-"
"Students we're outside for team practice so get ready." Yang was interrupted by Professor Goodwitch as some students resounded "Yesss" around the classroom, Ruby included.
"Alright team! Lets go!"
Outside on the field Team RWBY gathered in a large circle preparing to have at each other. Glancing left and right to Yang and Weiss, Ruby sped forwards towards Blake with a swing of her scythe, immediately slicing through a shadow clone. Momentarily horrified at slicing her team mate Blake took advantage and got behind Ruby to kick her in the back. Yang and Weiss both recognised each other as a threat and sprung forward as well.
Yang led on with a large hook but Weiss sidestepped and struck her in the side. Hissing in pain Yang swept Weiss off her feet with an unexpected kick. Quickly assessing damage Weiss glyphed out the way to create space.
Blake and Ruby finally breaking the pattern of clone murder, Blake managed to catch Ruby on her ribbon and forced her on her back, jumped and prepared to bring her sword down. Using her semblance Ruby sped out of the danger zone and backed up to size up her opponent. Looking to her right she saw Weiss doing the same. In the momentary distraction Blake already moved forward for another strike but stopped as a clone was left in place and kicked Ruby in the back once again.
"Ugh, Blake stop kicking!" Ruby groaned in frustration.
"Sorry, I wasn't aware there were rules in a free for all." Was the reply she received.
"Fine!" Ruby explained, she ran around her opponent with great speed, kicking up the sand of the training grounds. Swinging at where Blake thought her opponent would be ended up in a failure, and the trick with her ribbon was rendered useless. Looking up and around there were no grapple spots to save her, the click of Ruby's scythe was all she needed to know she was currently out her area of expertise. Sighing as Ruby realised and started to chuckle, she confirmed her loss.
"Ok, Ruby. You got me this round."
"Yes! Haha, maybe next time Blake." Ruby said with too much confidence.
"Maybe next time I pick the place to spar, under a nice tree. Out of this sun." She tried to play off the loss.
"Heh heh." Ruby chuckled. Ruby set off to go ambush the other two.
"Don't you dare Ruby! This is my win!" Yang bellowed still punching at Weiss, growing frustrated with her dodging. "Come at me already Weiss!"
"You think I'm stupid Xiao Long?!"
"At least our spars are tame and without… extra baggage?" Blake considered.
"Yeah… lets um, get some drink… nice ones." Ruby offered. They both left the other two to settle yet another bet.

"Okay class! Good session! Some more strenuous than others but well done. In time for next lesson I want you to bring your teams best strategies and put them to practice so prepare! Class dismissed." Goodwitch ended the lesson with a clap and students dispersed.
"Man, I'm beat. Port and double Goodwitch in one day? If it wasn't a Friday I'd think it'd be the worst day." Yang said with a stretch.
"So how'd your guys' match go?" Ruby asked Yang.
"I'd like to say a win but…" Yang began.
"Oh please. It was a tie at best." Weiss finished with a scoff.
"Try me any day Princess, I'll beat you again with ease."
"What you lack is finesse."
Before the argument could continue a camera clicked in the distance causing the team to pause and turn. "Uhm, sorry" Velvet timidly apologized. "I really needed some more weapon photos and it was too perfect an opportunity to miss." she explained quietly, Ruby began bounding up to velvet- talk about weapons no doubt- until Yang pulled her back.
"No problem Velvet, we weren't doing anything. We could just show you them you know?" Blake answered.
"Oh! No it's ok! A photo is all I need." She stated happily and walked towards the cafeteria for food.
"Ok?… Anyways! Lets head back to the dorm Team! And prepare for our trip to the bake- weapons maintenance… people." Ruby corrected. The team followed her back to the dorm and settled in till dinner.
"So what are we actually doing in town?" Weiss asked.
"Well, I'm glad you asked Weiss because I made a whole trip plan… in my head. And thought we could drop our weapons off for a good spa day, trek to the bakery and pick up their delicious goods, wander around town, buy what we need to buy, scope down the area for any potentential threats and pick up our beauties before heading back!" Ruby explained with vigour and the butchering of a word.
"Right so scoping for threats with no weapons. Fun." Blake said drily.
"Come on Blakey. As if theres going to be actual threats in a city like Vale." Yang defended.
"Oh yeah. Maybe the WhiteFang and Co just up and disappear for our evening out." Was Weiss' sarcastic reply.
"Guys! It's not like we're defenceless! Besides, our weapons need this TLC." Ruby tried to reason.
"Ok, ok. But I don't feel like this is a good idea." Weiss stated with a little more worry than was necessary.
"Meh, no one is dumb enough to mug Huntresses to be." Ruby said with a smile.

AN. Probably a few spelling mistakes but I did attempt to rewrite this story twice lol. This piece has been sat in my folder for a while now and I decided it was time to put it out there. I would love reviews, I know my writing is dodgy and I try to put in too much detail that it becomes boring but any tips and tricks to help that die would be great ;) Reviews are appreciated but not compulsory. I will write the next chapter by the 27th maybe before :D
Thanks for reading!
