A/N: This chapter takes place before the events of the first chapter. I wanted to make this as a tribute to the legendary creator of RWBY. It's a simple chapter with a simple story but here it is.

"Reeeeeenn. Ren, wake up!" Nora's face was close to his, her nose only an inch away from his cheek. She held something in her hands, trying not to spill it on the bed.

Ren slowly opened his eyes and groaned, the sunlight barely reaching his face through the curtains of their room. He isn't a morning person and he never will be, but Nora is a polar opposite when it came to that.

"Nora…" He slurred. Ren covered his eyes with his blankets to block the sunlight. "It's Sunday. Can I please sleep in?"

Nora set down her special item on the floor before lifting the blankets up from Ren. "No! I have something special for you!" She cheered, emphasizing the word with a slightly high-pitched sound.

Ren slowly sat up, groaning once more. Nora bent down and lifted up a bed tray. Ren noticed a familiar smell as Nora placed the bed tray on his lap. He looked down to find a plate of Magnhild shaped cookies, two heart shaped pancakes, and a glass of milk.

"I made it just for you! You always make breakfast for me and the team, so I wanted to give something back." Nora stated gleefully, hiding her hands behind her back with a huge grin on her face.

"You didn't have to, but thank you." Ren replied, an appreciative smile dawning on his face. Nora giggled and awaited for Ren to taste her specially made breakfast.

He looked down at his breakfast and began to silently inspect it. As a master of pancake making, Nora's looked well made. The cookies, however, were questionable since it wasn't necessarily a breakfast food. Ren wondered how she could even make the shape of her weapon from cookies in the first place.

He took his knife and cut a piece of the heart shaped pancake. Nora's eyes twinkled in anticipation and awaited for Ren to tell her how great it was.

Unfortunately for Nora, Ren didn't think it was as amazing as she thought it would be. In fact, Ren could definitely tell something crucial was missing when she was making this. He kept his facial expression neutral as always to not upset his girlfriend.

"Well, well, well? Isn't it great! Of course, it's not as amazing as yours, but after watching you make it all the time, I'm sure that it tastes great! I learn from the best! Well, not learn, but watch!" Nora bragged, making random hand gestures to match her dialogue before putting her arms back behind her back.

Ren kept trying to think of what ingredient she forgot to mix in her pancakes when he noticed something on Nora's hands while she boasted. His magenta eyes found a few bandages on her fingers, which could explain why she was trying to hide her hands behind her back.

He assumed that Nora probably spent a long time trying to perfect the pancakes. Ren made a smile, which made Nora giggle since he looked funny with his bed hair. "It's delicious Nora."

Ren gently took her arm and pulled her in for a kiss on the cheek, which made Nora blush instantly. "I-I'm glad you like it." She stuttered before gaining her energetic, bubbly composure once again.

He continued to eat the pancakes, having the milk drown down the weird taste, as Nora sat on Jaune's bed waiting for him to finish. "Where are Jaune and Pyrrha by the way?" Ren asked.

"Oh, they left early to go into Vale. Jaune has something very special planned for Pyrrha! I help plan it, of course." Nora smiled, watching Ren eat her pancakes that she worked really hard for.

Once Ren finished his pancakes and surprisingly delicious cookies, Nora took the tray and set it on Jaune's bed. Ren finally got out of bed and stretched his arms.

"Let's go on a date! We can go watch the new movie that came out! Oh, we can also go have a picnic in Forever Fall! This is going to be fun!" Nora rejoiced excitingly.

Ren went towards his closet to grab his dark green tailcoat. It has been a long time since they had a proper date because of the amount of work and studying team JNPR and RWBY had to do together. "That sounds like a good idea."

He got dressed quickly as Nora bounced around the room, excited to spend time with her beloved Ren. He opened the door and the orange-haired Valkyrie linked arms with him. Ren took her hand, making Nora blush in embarrassment. She wanted to hide her burn marks from him.

"Next time, put more milk in the pancake mix." He advised with a small smile, finally figuring out what was missing.

"…And it was the great Grimm king that attacked the walls of Vale, which forced the great hero to come out of hiding and save the day!" Nora exclaimed, explaining her crazy dream to Ren as they both walked out of the large airship.

Ren was used to her crazy dreams, this one in particular being more interesting than her usual stories. They walked through the city of Vale, the early morning sun shining on the couple. The two of them found the movie theater and bought tickets for the latest movie 'Red Vs Blue XIV: Dead Fantasy & Haloid'

As they entered the movie theater, the two had ten minutes until the movie trailers would end and the actual movie would start. Nora looked around the theater until she saw a particular game that she knew Ren would love to play.

Nora pulled Ren towards the game machine. She had a sinister grin, pulling out her wallet and pointing it at him. "I challenge you, Lie Ren, to a dance off!"

Ren looked at the gaming machine that they were going to play. "Dance Dance Revolution?"

Nora began inserting her lien into the DDR machine. "We have ten minutes to kill, let's do it!" She began to choose the song that she was going to dance to.

Ren shrugged and stood behind her, waiting for her to take her turn. When it came to dancing, many people consider him to be a pro. Ren could dance to almost anything perfectly. His skills were shown during the prom dance on their first year. Nora just pulled him in and he began to dance on instinct. The Hunter-in-training just followed the rhythm and managed to do it perfectly along with the rest of his teammates.

The song began to play and Nora started to dance to the beat. Ren moved his head to the tune, watching Nora enjoy herself, almost getting a perfect score. She made a peace sign at Ren and grinned. "I'm going to win!"

Ren chuckled and rolled his eyes. He was about to tag in when a group of guys came through the entrance, obnoxiously talking to each other, disturbing everyone who was in the theater. One of them pointed at Nora and they approached the Huntress. Their mind was filled with revolting thoughts, their eyes disrobing her while they strolled towards them. "Hey, baby, want to hang out with us?"

Ren stood in front of the group of guys, glaring at them. "Please leave her alone."

The group of guys looked up at him and pushed him aside. "What, are you guys together?"

Nora linked arms with Ren and glared at them, too. "Yes, we are together, together. Now if you excuse us, we have a movie to watch."

The couple began walking towards screening room when they were cut off by the group of guys. "That's cool, but he doesn't look so tough. Why don't you leave him for us? We're much more fun than this guy."

"We are Hunters and Huntresses-in-training and we wish to not cause trouble. I suggest you let us through, please." Ren advised, trying to be polite.

One of the guys pushed him aside and scowled at him. "We weren't talking to you."

Nora grabbed the person's wrist and twisted it, causing him to yelp in pain. "Ren, let's break their legs." She insisted with a scary glare. No one should dare try to bother Ren when she is right there.

Ren considered it, but he decided for a more…civil solution. "How about a dance battle? If you can score higher than me on this machine, I will leave Nora to you." His nails almost made his palms bleed at how clenched his fist was when he said those last few words, but he was confident in his abilities. If anything, he would just wait outside of the theater while Nora broke their legs the moment they try to touch her. Nora let go of the person and held onto Ren's arms once again.

The group of guys looked at each other and smirked. "Deal, you'll regret making this bet." The first guy stepped up and winked at Nora. She furrowed her eyebrows and stuck her tongue out at him. He chose a rather easy song which he got a mediocre score on. His three friends did the same thing.

Ren walked up to the DDR platform and chose Challenge mode. Nora ran up to him and gave him a long, seductive kiss. "Kick their butt!" She cheered.

He smirked and began to dance like he never danced before. Ren followed every move of the dancer on the screen, from every arm movement to even doing a backflip and landing in a split. Thankfully, he was flexible so the split didn't hurt him one bit.

The group of guys watched as their chances fade away, Ren getting a perfect score. They contemplated on beating him up until they remembered that Ren was a Hunter. Aura users are much more powerful than regular people, so the group decided to not try it. They left the theater, frustrated and embarrassed at the humiliating defeat.

Nora jumped into Ren's arms and gave him another kiss on the lips. "I've never seen you do that since my birthday a few years back. That was amazing, let's do that again."

Ren looked at the clock on the wall and sighed. "We missed the first twenty minutes of the movie. Do you stall want to go inside?"

Nora thought about it before having another brilliant plan in her head. She faced him and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Of course! It's rather early so no one would be inside that particular movie so we can definitely do something else." Ren looked into Nora's eyes, trying to reject her offer. Though, like Jaune and Pyrrha, it has been slow because of the amount of work they had to do for Beacon.

Ren began to walk out of the theater, carrying Nora princess style. "Movie theaters are for watching, Nora."

Nora pouted and crossed her arms. Ren made a small smile before they began walking towards a hotel. "The hotel may be a different story, though."

The orange-haired Valkyrie cheered and wrapped her arms around his neck. "Yay!"

Jaune and Pyrrha sat on their king-sized hotel bed, trying to cover their ears. They needed to block any noise from entering their head at all costs. With the help of Nora, Jaune planned the perfect date for Pyrrha with flowers, romantic dinners, view of the sunset, and the one thing that both of them wanted most, time alone together.

Pyrrha was revved up to go, waiting for Jaune to finish his shower, when she felt the wall beginning to vibrate. Jaune got out of the shower, letting Pyrrha see every inch of him when he noticed Pyrrha's ears were against the wall. "Pyrrha?"

"Shhh!" She shushed Jaune while trying to listen to the other side. Jaune pressed his ear on the same wall, but they could only hear a bed colliding with the wall and muffled noises.

That quickly changed when two very familiar voices started to make sounds that neither Jaune nor Pyrrha wished to ever hear. The muffled noise quickly became clear when the couple on the other side moved from their bed to the wall.

Jaune and Pyrrha grabbed their pillows to cover their ears, not wanting to hear any of it at all. They spent their entire night covering their ears, neither one of them checking to see if the couple finished what they were doing or not.

The next morning, Ren and Nora walked out of their hotel room. They were reinvigorated and ready to head back to Beacon for their classes. "Jaune?"

Ren saw Jaune and Pyrrha walk out of the bedroom next to them. They had bags under their eyes, their hair wasn't done, and they radiated an aura of exhaustion. The zombie-like couple squinted in their direction, refusing to make eye contact with any of them. They heard some very raunchy things come out of both Ren and Nora's mouth, but neither one of them wanted to remember.

Nora tilted her head. "What's up, sleepy heads?"

Pyrrha made a slight growl at her. It was Pyrrha's perfect date night and she was slightly peeved that it was ruined by her two teammates. "Let's just get back to Beacon." Jaune muttered before yawning.

Ren and Nora were confused at them, but they were too happy from last night to care at the moment. Team JNPR began their way back to the airships, Jaune and Pyrrha never looking at Ren and Nora the same way again.

A/N: I hope you enjoy this little thing I made up. When I heard the news, I couldn't believe it. I thought it was a terrible nightmare. I wouldn't consider myself a Rooster Teeth fan, but I have always been interested in their works ever since the RWBY trailers came out. I only considered myself a fan when I started watching videos other than RWBY a few days ago. Even though I didn't watch much of him, he was still such an amazing guy.

Rooster Teeth, his family, and all his friends have my sincerest condolences. Talented animator, loving husband, best of friends, and inspiration to all. God's speed to you, wherever you may go.
