Yo, mates. Black Fuego here with another one shot. This one was inspired by a scene in the game Persona 4, specifically the gang's fun night at Club Escapade. I originally planned to use all twelve characters for this, but I had a hard time trying to make it work, so I dropped it down to eight. It is my favorite part of the game and I just had to write a scene based on that. As usual, pairings and time placement will be mentioned. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own RWBY or Persona 4, but I do want to live in either world though. A man can dream…
A Game of Kings at the Club
Timeframe: Just over a couple months after the Forever Fall field trip. (Set during the events of chapter 9 of BLAD of RWBY and JNPR)
Couples: JaunexPyrrha, RenxNora, WeissxBaltazar
"Finally! Midterms are done!" Ash cheered as students left the classroom. He and his leader, along with Blake, Weiss and Team JNPR were in Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck's classroom and had just finished the last of their midterm exams and they were very happy about that.
"It is good that we don't have to take tests anymore," Jaune said, rubbing his head, "I swear those questions were hard, and I've been studying with Baltazar and Ruby for weeks."
"I still don't think that was a good idea Jaune," Weiss commented. "Ruby is a good student, but she has a really hard time paying attention in class if the subject is not about weapons. And as for Baltazar…well see for yourself." She pointed beside her and Jaune noticed that Baltazar had his head down and was sleeping soundly, his glasses set aside.
"Wow, that is one sleepy boyfriend you have there, Weiss," Nora said, looking at the passed out leader. "Is it because he's a Tiger Faunus? I heard that cats like to sleep a lot and he is essentially a big kitty." The comment made Blake quirk an eyebrow at her.
"She is right, but I think Baltazar is an exception," The secret Cat Faunus thought, "I take a few naps on occasion but nowhere near as much as him."
"He gets it from his dad," Weiss explained. "However I don't think you should be one to talk, Nora, considering how often your boyfriend sleeps." She turned her head to her boyfriend and smiled fondly, "You're right about one thing, though. This lovable twit is pretty much one big kitten." She began to scratch the teen's head, which made him purr in content.
"Aww that's so adorable," Pyrrha gushed at the scene.
"Aw man! My leader is so lucky." Ash sighed, "I've got to find me a girlfriend soon, or else I'll end up the desperate lonely single guy in the group."
"Ash, you are the desperate lonely single guy in the group," Ren pointed out, which made Jaune laugh. "Don't forget that Jaune and I have girlfriends of our own. Pyrrha and Nora, remember?"
"But you've only been going out with Bombette for two days, dude!" Ash exclaimed.
"So? People usually mistake us for a couple anyways, now we just don't deny it." Ren admitted with a shrug.
The lonely single guy glared at his male friends, "Dude…you suck."
"Hey everyone! What's up?" Yang called as she, Ruby, Dia and Levy entered the classroom. She noticed what Weiss was doing to Baltazar and grinned. "I see you're giving that hubby-to-be of yours a little reward for his efforts, future Sis."
"How many times do I have to tell you to not call us that?" Weiss complained with a light blush. "We're only dating, not engaged you brute. And besides, even if we were getting married, Ruby isn't even going out with the little troublemaker yet. We can't be sisters until they're engaged at least."
"Glad to know that you're not opposed to having us as sisters, Weiss," Ruby said happily, yet was blushing herself after hearing the comment of her and her best friend being engaged.
"Anyways, I've got something important to say. Mind waking Sparky up so he can listen, future Sis?" Yang asked.
"Let me do it," Ash offered before Weiss could respond. "I've got something that I've been wanting to try for a while now." He stood and walked over to where the sleeping Faunus was and cleared his throat. He spoke again, in a perfect imitation of Dr. Oobleck. "Mr. Azul, where in Vytal did humankind wanted to centralize the Faunus population?!"
"Menagerie!" Baltazar shouted out, waking up from his nap and his eyes flashing blue in surprise.
"Huh…that actually worked. I have to remember that next time," Dia mused.
"I'm just happy he actually paid attention in class," Levy smiled. "The answer he gave was right."
"Alright, now that Mr. Sleeps-a-lot is awake, I'll make my announcement," Yang said, which gained everyone's attention. "We've been studying our butts off for weeks in order to pass our exams, and now the exams are over and I'm certain that all of us passed. I think that deserves a reward, don't you think, guys?" She received nods in response. "Good, now listen up. I managed to get ourselves one heck of a deal. Get ready to party, guys, because we're going to a club!"
"A club?" Everyone asked.
"Yup!" Yang grinned, "And it's a good one too! I've been there a couple times before and it was awesome!"
"Flare, are you sure we're allowed to go?" Baltazar spoke up, his glasses placed haphazardly on his face and his pupils dilated to orbs in confusion, "You know that the two of us are in trouble because of-"
"It's fine Sparky, I talked to Ozpin about it, our punishment's not happening until Monday, whatever that is, so we still have the weekend free until then," Yang explained, causing the others to shiver slightly as they recalled what happened that got the fire and lightning pair in trouble in the first place.
"Actually, Sis, I won't be able to go," Ruby confessed. "There's a grand opening for a new candy shop today and Nora and I want to go check it out."
"We're gonna buy as much snacks as we can carry!" Nora confirmed.
"I won't be able to attend either," Levy said, "Tukson's Book Trade is having a sale and I promised Blake that I'll go with her."
"We're sorry for not being able to make it," Blake apologized.
"It's fine, don't worry about it. If you can't come, then you can't come," Yang smiled and looked to the others. "How about it, guys? Who wants to go to a club?"
"I'm in!" Ash and Dia cheered.
"I've never been in a club before. It sounds like fun," Pyrrha smiled.
"If Pyrrha's going, then I guess I'll go too." Jaune said.
"Why not? I've got nothing else to do," Ren shrugged.
"Hold it you guys," Weiss called out, "I think this is a bad idea. Who knows what could happen at a club?"
"Oh come on, Weiss, live a little." Yang whined.
"No, Yang. I don't think we should go," She shook her head turned to Baltazar, who had managed to fix his glasses to their proper position. "Can you help me convince her that this is a bad idea, please?"
The tiger ninja said nothing as he looked at his girlfriend before turning to his old roommate. After a few moments, he let out a sigh. "When do we leave?"
Yang cheered and Weiss stared at him in disbelief. "Seriously?"
"What?" Baltazar asked, "I've known Yang long enough to know that if she wants to do something she thinks is fun, she'll do it no matter what. When it comes to stuff like this, it's best to just go with the flow and see what happens."
Weiss frowned; somewhat upset that everyone, even her boyfriend, was ok with going to a club they know practically nothing about.
"Please, Weiss just come with us," The ninja pleaded, "It'll be fun. And if things go south, we can blame everything on Yang, right guys?"
"Right," everyone agreed.
"Hey!" Yang yelled feeling insulted.
The heiress held a thoughtful pose, contemplating on whether or not to go with her friends. After a few moments, she came to an answer.
"All right, I'll come," she sighed before turning to Baltazar, "But you owe me big time, mister. This is way out of my comfort zone and I know it's out of yours too."
"Just relax, Weiss," Baltazar smiled, "I have a feeling that tonight's going to be an interesting night."
-Later that night-
"Well guys, this is it! Welcome to Club Xing!" Yang introduced.
The club was quite nice in the opinion of the Beacon students, there was a dance floor, moving lights, a D.J. and even a bar. When Yang said she knew a good club, she wasn't kidding.
"…I feel like burning my dread for some reason," Ren stated, which made most of his friends stare at him oddly.
"Woah…so this is a club!" Jaune said in awe.
"Whoo! I'm totally ready for this!" Ash cheered.
"Don't be too excited you guys," Weiss warned.
"There's nothing like this back home…" Pyrrha muttered with amazement in her voice.
"Wow, even Pyrrha's into this," Dia muttered to herself. "I have to admit though, this place looks awesome. Even better than the one I went to on Passion Island."
The group began to follow Yang to their destination when Baltazar spoke up. "Wait a minute…I think I know this place." He turned to the blonde brawler, "Say Yang, isn't this the club where you took out a bunch of thugs, tore the dance area to shreds and punched the old owner so hard he flew out of the window over a few months ago?"
Everyone focused their attention to Yang, who smiled sheepishly and scratched her neck. "Heh heh...it isn't, but it is nearby. First time I was there I had to look for someone and I may have gone a little overboard when Junior sent his men at me."
"I remember you talking about this before," Weiss spoke up, "Didn't you say you had the owner by the genitals while you were interrogating him?" The comment made the guys in the group wince in sympathy for the poor man.
"Yup!" Yang admitted proudly, "I just waltzed in here, interrogated the owner and literally held his nuts for ransom if he didn't cooperate, beat up his goons, and socked him in the face hard enough to leave an impression in his skull. Went a little wild after he pulled out a bit of my hair, but it was a good night."
"…That would explain a lot." Jaune said, knowing how violent she gets if someone messed with her hair.
"Hold up!" Dia shouted, "You mean to tell us that you took out the owner and his men, practically tore the club down, which I have no doubt other club owners have heard about, and you're actually allowed to go to this club? How?"
"I know the owner," Yang grinned, "Now come on guys, let's get going. I reserved us a room upstairs so no one will bother us."
"She was even able to reserve a room?" The archer questioned. She and the rest turned to the Baltazar with hope that he could explain.
He simply shrugged, "Don't look at me. I'm as clueless about this as you guys are."
A few minutes later everyone found themselves in a small room with a couple of couches, some posters and a small table with drinks on it. They can still hear the music but it was not as loud as earlier. On the large couch, Ren, Jaune, Ash, Pyrrha and Dia sat together while the smaller one had Weiss, Yang and Baltazar together.
"Are you sure this is alright?" Jaune asked as he set his drink down, "Isn't this expensive? And you still haven't told us how you're still allowed here."
"No worries," Yang grinned, "You see, a couple years ago I helped out the new owner by rescuing his daughter and a bunch of other kids from some kidnappers. After he bought this place and repaired it, he told me that if I ever come here with friends I should let him know and we'll be able to get a room and drinks for free." She turned to her former partner and had a small, bitter smile on her face. "You remember that incident, don't you Sparky?"
"How could I not," Baltazar replied dryly. "I mean, that incident was what damaged my eyes so much that I need glasses in the first place."
"I see," Jaune nodded before smiling, "Well in that case, I'm gonna order more."
"Woooo! I'm not gonna hold back either," Ash cheered, his voice sounding a little different. The slur in his tone caught everyone's attention.
"Ash, are you ok?" Dia asked her partner, "You sound really weird right now."
"Oh, you're sho cold, Dia," Ash scoffed before going into a thinking pose, "Hmm…Dia? Dia…Dia…" He then turned to everyone with a goofy grin on his face, "This I-Dia of Yang's ish very great, isn't it? Hehehe, that's a great one!"
Everyone stared at the laughing powerhouse in disbelief.
"Wow, man, you're already in high gear," Baltazar commented.
A giggle was heard and everyone turned to Pyrrha, who was laughing lightly with a small blush on her face.
"I-Dia? Hahahaha!" The armored huntress began to laugh hysterically, much to the surprise of her friends.
Ren couldn't believe his eyes, "Wow…she seems really loose right now, doesn't she?"
"Hey wait a minute!" Jaune called out and looked at Yang, "Yang, did you order us liquor?"
Yang had a shocked look on her face and a fairly large blush as well, "I-I told them to give us soft drinks! They're non-alcoholic!" She groaned and spoke again with a slur in her voice, "…I told them. Really, I did! Really!"
Dia looked at her drink in surprise, "Sheesh, and I was wondering why it was so hot."
Weiss stared at the drinks in worry, "Is this really alcohol?" She turned to her boyfriend, "Hey Baltazar, do you smell-"
She was interrupted by Yang standing up and shouting at everyone, "King's Game!"
"…What?" Baltazar asked fearfully.
Yang explained with a hiccup, "At times like this, adults play the King's Game. It's the law…*hic*"
Nearly everyone sweat dropped at her explanation.
The brawler noticed this and glared at everyone weakly, "What's your problem? You guys must think I'm shtupid or shomething. Is it because I'm a blonde or a kid or what?"
"Ah, Yang," Dia called out, "Jaune and I are blondes and we're all the same age remember? Don't you-"
"Morons!" Yang interrupted, "I'm going to play the King's Game and ain't no one gonna stop me!"
"Baltazar, stop her now!" The heiress pleaded.
"How!?" The musician asked, "I've never seen her like this before, Weiss! I don't know that to do! It's freaking me out!"
"Vomit Boy! Get the chopsticks ready!" The inebriated blonde shouted.
Jaune stared at her in fear and confusion, "What? Why me?!"
Yang just glared at him and clapped her hands, "The King's word is law! Chop-chop!"
"I-Its already started?" Baltazar questioned as Jaune scrambled to get some chopsticks.
"…I can already tell this is not going to end well," Ren muttered to himself.
After a few minutes Jaune came back with some chopsticks. Yang took them and began to write on them with a black marker she found.
Dia looked at her fellow blonde girl curiously before asking, "So…what's this King's Game again?"
Pyrrha explained with a noticeable slur in her voice as well, "Ok…one chopstick makes you the King when you draw it and the others have numbers on 'em. The King picks a number and says what that person has to do. But whoever has which number is a mystery until the King gives the orders, hahaha."
"Woo! Pyrrha, you sure do know a lot. You tell 'em!" Yang cheered, holding a red marker.
"P-Pyrrha?!" Jaune exclaimed in shock, "Where did you learn this stuff!?"
Before he could get a response, Yang stood up and held out the chopsticks, "C'mon, everyone draw!"
Everyone drew a chopstick and waited for someone to announce themselves as the King.
"Ok, so…who's the King?" Yang asked cheerfully.
Ash stood up excitedly and held his chopstick high, "Ash's is red! Red! Is Ash the King?"
The sober members of the group all shared the same thought, "Oh God, we're doomed."
Ren looked at the red headed powerhouse strangely, "Why are you talking like that?"
Ash did not hear his friend and gave his order, "I, the King, command thee to smooch the King without delay! Smooooch!"
Dia looked at her partner with shock and a heavy blush on her face, "S-S-Smooch?!"
"Ash, don't do it!" Baltazar warned. "Half of our group are guys and half of the girls are taken, remember? It's not going to work!"
Ash ignored his teammates and proceeded to finish his demand, "Please, God…grant me a girl. Number three!"
"AAH!" Jaune screamed, standing up in fright.
Ash saw this and immediately tried to fix his mistake, "I meant number two!"
Weiss glared at the drunken fool, "No take-backs, you idiot!"
"You were number two, weren't you? Hehehe…that rhymed!" Yang snickered.
Baltazar sighed and face-palmed, "I warned him…"
Pyrrha on the other hand began to cheer, "Smooch, smooch!"
"Pyrrha!" Jaune gasped in shock, surprised that his girlfriend was encouraging this.
Ash turned his head to the blonde teen next to him, "J-Jauney…so you were after my luscious locks!"
"W-What?" The frightened Jaune squeaked, "N-No I wasn't!"
Ren's eyes widened as he imagined what was going to happen. "He wouldn't…"
Ash smirked, "Ok…but it's my first time. Be gentle." And with that he tackled Jaune to the ground.
"He would," Ren sighed as his leader struggled to get free.
"Whoa, hey, stop, get off of me! AHH! REN! PYRRHA! H-HELP!"
*SMOOOCH!*
The sober members of the group just stared at the pair in shock, unable to comprehend what had just happened in front of them.
Yang grinned widely, "Ohoo…only the first round and two contestants have dropped out already!"
Dia turned to her with a questioning look, "Huh? Is it that kind of game?"
"I am so frightened right now," Ren muttered, with Weiss and Baltazar nodding in agreement.
Yang stood up with a fist in the air and announced, "On to round two!"
A few moments later everyone drew again, with most of the group wishing that someone sensible was the King this time.
"Who's the King?" Yang asked eagerly.
"That would be me," Ren answered calmly, holding up his chopstick.
Weiss let out a sigh of relief, "Someone decent. No crazy orders this time…"
"That's not how it goes," Pyrrha pointed out with a silly smile, "If the last King's order was a smooch, then the next one has to be more extreme."
"What?" Weiss asked, hoping she heard her wrong.
Pyrrha just giggled and looked over to her white haired friend, "Weiss don't be such a party pooper!"
"Yeah! 'Weiss' sho sherious, girl? Just relax!" Yang laughed out, happy with her pun and ignoring the groans of her sober friends before a thought came to her, "Hey! I gotz an idea! The person who gets picked has to rest their head on the King's lap!"
Dia looked at her fellow blonde in shock, "Eh?"
Pyrrha shook her head, "Nah, make 'em sit on his lap."
Weiss began to blush a little at the thought, "P-Pyrrha!"
Yang had a big grin on her face with her next suggestion, "Oh, or…they could have to hug him!"
"…Is hugging really considered more extreme than a kiss?" Baltazar wondered out loud.
"Don't encourage them!" Dia and Weiss shouted at him.
Pyrrha had a large grin on her face as well with her suggestion, "Better than that, a piggyback ride!"
"…What kind of suggestions are these," Ren thought out loud.
Yang turned to the new King with an eager look on her face, "C'mon, King! Who's gonna do what?!"
The dual pistol user became nervous at the sight of his friends staring at him, especially the drunk ones. He began to think of which of the orders that were suggested to him will give him the least amount of trouble if Nora ever found out about this night. After a few moments he thought of one, and sincerely hoped that things won't end badly for him in the future.
"Uh…I guess I'll have number one hug me?" It was the best he could think of. The piggyback one sounded too dangerous and he'd doubt that Nora would be ok with someone resting or worse, sitting on his lap. He knew that she should be ok with someone hugging him…hopefully.
"Yes! I'm number one!" Yang cheered, and stumbled towards the frightened Ren and proceeded to sit on his lap, wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly, putting his head in her ample chest.
Baltazar just stared at the scene with wide eyes, "…I know so many people that would kill to be in your position, Ren."
Weiss on the other had gave her teammate a harsh glare, "Yang, what are you doing? Do you know what Nora will do to you if she sees you hugging Ren like that?"
Yang responded with a giggle and began snuggling her 'King', "Well how else are you supposed to hug someone who's sitting down?"
Ren sat in silence, unsure of what to do at this point. "Please, God. If, no, when Nora finds out about this, make her go easy on me."
After a few uncomfortable minutes Yang got up and staggered back to her seat. Ash and Jaune also returned, with Jaune having a traumatized look on his face.
"You hanging in there, bud?" Dia asked in concern.
"I think I'm traumatized for the rest of my life…" Jaune muttered.
"Ahahaha! Me next! Me!" Pyrrha laughed out, "I'm the King! Actually the Queen!"
"We didn't draw chopsticks yet," Baltazar pointed out, but he was ignored.
The red headed huntress continued, "OK then…let's have someone talk about something really embarrassing that they'd never tell anyone. Hmm…let's see." She looked over to Weiss and gave her a huge grin, "Ah, Weiss! I choose you!"
Ren let out an exasperated sigh, "You're breaking the rules, Pyrrha." He tuned to the heiress with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry about her, Weiss. Just ignore her."
"Actually, that won't be necessary," Weiss reassured, causing everyone to stare at her strangely. "I'll go along with this, on the condition that you guys answer a certain question of mine after I finish."
"OK!" Yang agreed cheerfully.
"Wow that was a quick response," Jaune muttered.
"Well since you all know about what I considered to be one of my more embarrassing moments, thanks to a certain someone," Weiss glared at her drunk teammate for a moment, "I might have something else that should work. It was when I was a kid, only about twelve. I was staying with Baltazar and his family at the time because Dad had some business to do and he wanted someone he trusts to look after me. Baltazar was riding his bike around town with me riding with him on the back, and the two of us were simply exploring the area a little. However things went south as we were heading back. About half a dozen dogs or so blocked our normal route back home and I believed that they were hostile. My clueless best friend at the time, however, thought that they were friendly and went closer to them. Sadly my beliefs were correct and the next thing we knew, we were biking for our lives with a small pack of angry dogs running after us." She shook her head at the memory, "I swear those beasts were chasing us for ten minutes straight before they gave up. And I'm pretty sure they would have left us alone if Mr. Friendly over there didn't try to play with them."
Everyone looked at the heiress for a moment before turning to her blushing boyfriend, who had his head down in embarrassment and shame.
"You're never going to let that moment go, aren't you?" The stealth expert mumbled.
"Not at all," The glyph caster confirmed, "I love you, but honestly, you can be such a gullible twit sometimes." She gave her boyfriend a smirk, "That and you owe me for dragging me here in the first place."
"So we're even?" Baltazar asked hopefully.
Weiss's smirk never left her face, "Not even close."
Before Baltazar could say any more, Pyrrha spoke up, "That was so embarrassing! Isn't Weiss embarrassing?"
Dia just stared at the rifle/spear user in disbelief, "Pyrrha, Chief was the one being embarrassed. Weren't you listening at all?"
Ren and Jaune hung their heads in depression with the blonde speaking up, "I wanna go home…"
"I'm sleepy," Yang muttered before dozing off.
"…Ok, I gave my story, now I can ask my question," Weiss said. "I'm just going to ask it flat out: How in the world did you three become so inebriated?" She pointed at the three drunks in question.
Dia looked at the heiress in confusion, "What do you mean, Weiss? They were drinking, we all were, and that's how they got drunk."
Weiss shook her head, "We weren't drinking. It's like Yang said earlier, these are just soft drinks. There's no alcohol at all here."
Pyrrha just laughed when she heard that, "Good one, Weiss!"
"I wasn't joking, Pyrrha," Weiss sighed, "I pretty much knew that there was no alcohol in this club the moment we got here. If there was even a hint of liquor in this place Baltazar wouldn't be here. I was about to ask him to double check earlier before Yang interrupted me, but since he's still here, I'm sure that there's no alcohol in our drinks."
"She's right," Baltazar confirmed, "I had some bad experiences with alcohol before moving to Vale so I trained myself to detect even the smallest hint of it in order to stay away from that stuff if I can. I also remember hearing that this club got rid of its alcoholic drinks when the new manager took over so that Beacon students can come here without the teachers worrying about drunks in their school. I can honestly say that there is no alcohol in this club."
Dia stared at the two questionably, "Eh? So does this mean we're all drunk off the atmosphere or something?"
Jaune became confused as well, "Is that even possible?"
"Who cares?" Pyrrha giggled, before becoming drowsy herself. "Whee, I feel good…good night." And with that she fell asleep as well.
Jaune began to worry about their situation, "Oh man, how are we supposed to get back when two of our friends are passed out drunks?"
Dia shrugged, "Maybe they're gonna get their piggyback ride after all?"
Ren rubbed his head and sighed, "Oh man, all of this is giving me a headache…is this what a hangover feels like?"
"Ash is still totally ok!" Ash slurred out cheerfully. "Let's keep drinkin' 'till mornin'!"
"Bring it on…" Yang mumbled before passing out again.
Everyone sweat dropped at the exchange.
Baltazar gave the two a deadpan stare, "As we've said, you haven't been drinking any alcohol."
Weiss on the other hand pinched the bridge of her nose in annoyance, "I am surrounded by idiots…"
-Epilogue-
"No way, that really happened?" Ruby asked with wide eyes. It was the day after the club night and nearly everyone was in the cafeteria eating breakfast. The only ones not in attendance were Pyrrha, Yang, and Ash, who were still asleep due to last night's events.
"It did, and I don't want anything like that to happen again," Baltazar said after retelling Ruby, Blake, Nora and Levy about last night.
"…How in the world did those three became inebriated," Levy questioned, curious as to how it happened.
"We're still trying to figure that out," Weiss sighed.
"So…did you and Ash have fun last night?" Blake asked JNPR's leader mischievously.
"I don't wanna talk about it…" Jaune muttered in a traumatized tone.
"There, there," Dia said and patted her fellow blonde on the back in order to calm him down.
"So Yang gave you a hug, Ren?" Nora asked calmly, scaring everyone on the table.
"Uhh…yes?" Ren answered nervously.
"Did she hug you tightly?" The sweet tone in her voice made everyone shiver in fright.
"…Yeah, she did," Ren confessed, "She said that it was the only way to hug someone who was sitting down. I was very uncomfortable at the time."
"Nora?" Jaune began, his voice trembling a little, "Are you going to hurt Ren? He really didn't have a choice in the matter, and the other options he had weren't much better."
She gave her leader a curious look, "Why would I do that? Like you said, he didn't have much of a choice." She turned her head back to her boyfriend, "However, you will have to buy me sweets from the new candy shop for the next month for letting Yang cling to you."
"I can live with that," Ren sighed in relief. He feared that Nora was going to have a much more violent reaction.
"Good," The bomber grinned, before getting up. "Now if you guys excuse me, I have something that I need to take care of." With that, she left the group.
Baltazar and the girls stared at the leaving huntress, fearing the worse. They turned to the rest of JNPR saw that they had calm expressions.
Dia spoke up first, "Is she...?"
"Yup," the two answered quickly.
Weiss began to feel nervous again, "Should we...?"
"Nope," the pair replied.
Everyone just stared at each other and thought the same thing, "Yang is so dead."
"AAAAAH!"
Everyone jumped and turned to see not only Yang, but Pyrrha and Ash as well, being chased by Nora, who was holding Magnhild in its hammer form and had a diabolical grin on her face.
"Come back, Yang!" Nora called out cheerfully, "I just want to have a little spar with you!"
"NO THANK YOU!" Yang screamed for her life.
"WHY ARE YOU CHASING US TOO?" Ash questioned loudly, "WE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING!"
"LESS TALKING, MORE RUNNING!" Pyrrha shouted.
The three of them ran outside with Nora right on their tails. The others sweat dropped as they heard the sounds of explosions nearby.
"Well…that was a thing," Blake droned.
"Indeed," Ren nodded.
"I think it's best to leave them alone for a while," Levy suggested.
"Good idea, Levy," Ruby agreed, along with everyone else. She then brought out a large plate of cookies and placed them on the table. "So who wants cookies?"
Everyone raised their hands, "I do."
And with that, everyone enjoyed some of Ruby's chocolate chip cookies, blissfully ignoring the sounds of Nora blowing up their teammates to kingdom come.
Author's note: Alright, finished. Lost some inspiration a little on the way, but I'm fairly satisfied with how it turned out. I've watched the drunk in the club scene so many times on Superjeenus's LP of Persona 4 Golden and I loved every minute of it. I just had to write something based on that part. I changed it up a bit and combined a few things from the scene, but I'm happy with it regardless. With this done, I'll be focusing on chapter 4 of BLAD of RWBY and JNPR. It will be shorter in comparison to its previous chapters, especially 3, so hopefully it won't take too long. See you all next time.
*Edit* Made a few corrections and additions since this technically took place within an actual chapter of my story.
