Diamond Eclipse: Prequel

Summary: She was a jewel, shining so brightly under the stage lights. It was as if she was begging to be pulled into the shadows.

So, I'm back to writing fanfiction, and supporting the weird pairings with next to no fics... Oh, and look! I made a new multi-chap! Again. And it's with a new weird pairing (that i adore for some reason... it all makes sense in my head). Again! Someone please keep the bunnies away from me long enough so I can finish one of these things instead of jumping between them all -.- In other news: please leave a comment/review if you like the story. Otherwise I feel alone in my weird shipping world...

He had only been at Beacon Academy for a few days, and already he felt like slitting his wrists and watching the blood flow would be more entertaining than sitting through another lecture by one of the school's rather eccentric teachers. Scratch that, slitting the wrists of that hyped up red-hooded idiot would be far more entertaining. That is to say, such a scene would hold his attention for thirty seconds, maybe a whole minute.

Mercury doesn't bother suppressing his next sigh as he looks across the courtyard to see Ruby and her team are back from the city, along with Team JNPR. One of the few teams Cinder wants them to investigate, or rather one of the few people she wants to know more about; all in terms of combat prowess, of course.

So the plan Cinder had cooked up for the Vytal Festival would be ready.

When the festival actually began things would start to get interesting, but at the moment-

"Oooh, what's that book about? Must be exciting if you're already reading it, Blake."

"Uh...yeah." The faunus girl trying to pass as a human with her cute wittle bow slid the inappropriately named book back into her bag. "It's about agriculture."

"Really?" Ruby seemed to be unsure for a moment. "Is it that interesting?"

"Well, it goes over how to make your own garden with the correct tools." Blake paused, obviously thinking back to her book. "Mhm, you need a plow to cultivate the soil, then fertilizer so the plants have enough nutrients to grow. The sprayer it uses to spread the fertilizer can make it quite messy though. Oh, planting the seeds can take some time if you want the plants to come out right, and-" she stopped abruptly when her companion dressed in white glared at her.

Her partner - who's boobs were very nearly popping out of her small top - was stifling laughter. While Ruby just stared at Blake with wide eyes. "That sounds like so much fun! We could make our own garden! Who's with me?"

Her sister evidently couldn't contain herself anymore as she burst out laughing at Blake's horrified expression at such a suggestion. The heiress merely hid her face behind her right hand, shaking her head.

"Let's see the book, Blake." Ruby said, as she stepped toward her.

"No!"

He might as well be in hell. Hmm, maybe he could sneak a comic into his next 'class.' So long as Cinder didn't notice he would be fine. Since he was suppose to be observing the students and looking out for any that were exemplary enough to put on the list.

The same boring task as Emerald; he wasn't sure why she was so excited about it, having to actually interact with these students... It was tiring acting so chipper all the time - a fact Emerald herself had pointed out.

One of the few things that would possibly rattle them was if an accident occurred during a sparring match in class. Then maybe they wouldn't be so happy all the time or speaking in horrible innuendos for that matter.

"That was uncalled for, Blake." Weiss hissed as the group passed by his bench, Ruby jogging ahead of them, evidently having dropped the subject of 'agriculture.'

"Sorry." Blake murmured in reply. "But that is the essence of it. Unless you think I should have actually told her what the book was about?"

"You didn't have to go into detail. She would have dropped it faster if you hadn't."

"Come on, it's not that big of a deal, Weiss." Yang said with a grin, winking at Blake a second later. "Besides, it was pretty funny."

"Ugh." Weiss rolled her eyes as she picked up her pace, walking ahead of the other two. She spun around to face them a moment later when Yang laughed, causing Blake to join her this time. "You two are unbelievable!" She turned on her heel as they continued to laugh, causing her skirt to twist and rise for the second time within a minute, gliding up to reveal even more of her milky white thighs. The white-blue fabric of her skirt settled back into place quickly though as Weiss huffed, walking at a considerably faster pace away from her teammates.

That anger - or annoyance - at her teammates was accentuated with each swing of her hips. A rather hypnotizing motion as he watched her make her way to the doors of Beacon Academy. It was a shame she wasn't wearing something that hugged her bubble butt.

That Schnee would be delectable if not for her icy personality. Though, the dust company she was the heiress to easily outweighed that con. Not just because of the Dust they mined from the Schnee Quarry, but the money that came with that business model.

If he could get a hold of some of that dust and money she would be a lovely bonus; until Beacon fell into the fiery pits of hell, that is. It sounded much more entertaining than what he was currently doing: being bored out of his mind.
