So here's chapter two, this is out a little faster than the chapters will normally be coming out, I just happened to have chapter two almost finished by the time I published chapter one. It's also a little longer, which is what I'll be going for with the rest of the chapters hopefully! So without further ado, Chapter Two!

Weiss's first class, Advanced Calculus, went off without a hitch, she sat in the front, as always, was the first to answer every question, as always, and of course, completed the assigned work in the last half-hour of the ninety minute class without even checking her answers in the back of the book. The bell rang to signify the end of the period and she began swiftly walking to her Advanced History class. Other students would stand and talk to their friends, but Weiss always went straight to her classes, never seeing the point in standing about doing nothing when there is work to be done.

As she entered the room she was greeted by probably the only girl that she could consider her friend.

"Hello Weiss," the onyx haired girl said with a light smile.

"Hello Blake. How has your morning been?"

Amber eyes flicked back to her book as she replied, "Not particularly eventful, though there was a new girl in my speech class this morning."

"The silver-eyed girl, yes I met her this morning."

Blake looked up and said, "Actually this girl had lavender eyes, with long blonde hair, said her family had just moved here last month."

"They must be sisters," Weiss replied, and described her encounter with the brunette girl at her locker earlier in the day.

Blake motioned for Weiss to sit at the desk next to her at the front of the room, and she sat down, taking notice of what her friend was wearing. Blake had gone with her normal clothes today, electing to look like she always did instead of wearing anything special. She was wearing a simple white button-down blouse and black skirt that went down to her knees, her purple leggings ending in a pair of black heels, not very tall, only about an inch, but stylish all the same. Her long black hair had a deep velvet bow tied in it, and her black wool jacket laid across the back of the chair.

They were definitely contrasting, at least to the casual observer, but Blake's quiet nature and love of literature was what drew the two of them together, Weiss finally able to find someone quiet to study with, and Blake someone to talk about her favorite novels with. It was an odd friendship, but it suited them nonetheless.

Class was about a minute from starting and almost everyone had arrived, when they heard a loud crash from outside the hall.

"I'm really really sorry!" Ruby burst into the classroom backwards, crashing into another student, "Eep! Sorry!"

"Speak of the devil and she will come," Weiss muttered.

Ruby turned around to see that everyone was staring and, gulping loudly, retreated to an empty desk in the back of the room.

"She doesn't look that bad," Blake observed, "Just a little disheveled. I would probably be in the same position if I had to jump in to a class two years ahead of me in a place I've never been before."

"That does not excuse clumsiness, she needs to be more careful or else she will end up hurting someone." Weiss huffed, "Now, who is teaching this class? Someone named Dr. Oob-"

The bell rang and at the same moment a flurry of papers rose up at the desk as a teacher that surely had not been there a moment ago appeared standing behind it.

"Hello ladies and gentlemen, My name is Dr. Bartholomew Oobleck and I will be leading you through the fantastical journey that is the history of our world!" If Ruby had looked a little disheveled walking into class, Oobleck was the very definition of the word. His white button-down shirt was only half tucked in, his green hair wild as it stuck out in tufts all over his head. His yellow tie was hanging crooked and loose around his neck, and his shoes were two different colors. The only thing he seemed to have straight were his glasses, behind which shone a pair of very intense brown eyes. "Now I see you all have chosen your desired seats, good. Everyone stand! I have taken the liberty of forming a seating chart for all of you! This seating is non-negotiable, and will be permanent for the first semester!"

The students groaned as Dr. Oobleck activated the projector hanging from the ceiling and brought down the screen. Everyone stood there as the class layout faded into view. Weiss immediately noticed that she would not be seated next to Blake. Blake would be in the front left of the class. Weiss searched for her name and scowled as she saw her name in the back middle of the classroom. Weiss hated the back of the room. As she moved to grab her seat she heard a loud yelp behind her followed immediately by being knocked headfirst into her desk.

"YOU DOLT! WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING!" Weiss shrieked, looking up to find a very flustered and frightened Ruby standing over her.

"I'm so so so soooo sorry! I was just climbing over to my desk and I slipped and-"

"Does it look like I care what your reason is?!" Weiss seethed, "Why didn't you just go around like a sane human! You are a danger to everyone around you!"

Dr. Oobleck jumped in, "Now Miss Schnee, I have to ask you to stop shouting, I'm sure that what Miss Rose did was an accident and that she did not intend to harm you. Do you need to see the nurse?"

Weiss brushed herself off and took a breath, still angry she said, "No, I do not. Thank you Dr. Oobleck.

"Then take your seats! I see that you and Miss Rose are seated next to each other so that should give you an opportunity to work out these issues!"

"WHAT!" They both exclaimed

"I can't sit next to her," Weiss said, "She'll probably end up breaking my spine with her clumsiness!"

"Hey, I said I was sorry princess!" Ruby fumed.

"It's heiress, actually," Blake said, "Just wanted to make sure you get your titles right."

Weiss glared at her icily, and Blake sat in her seat, barely suppressing a chuckle.

"Oh I see," Ruby sneered, "Prissy little rich girl just doesn't want to get her clothes ruffled. How much did daddy pay for those anyway?"

The entire room was in shock. They could swear the temperature in the room fell sharply. No one had ever spoken to Weiss Schnee like that before. The last person who had done this in freshman year had been forced to move because their parents couldn't get jobs or secure any form of credit anywhere in the vicinity of the school. Everyone knew her father was the one who had secured that, so no one else ever spoke back to Weiss, doing their best to keep their families from ending up bankrupt.

Weiss allowed her darkest, most icy glare settle on Ruby in that moment, throwing all of her anger into those silver eyes.

Ruby wavered under her stare as she realized what she had said. she put her hands over her mouth and tried to become as small as humanly possible. "Oh crap, I'm sorry Weiss, I'm really sorry! I don't normally talk that way I was just upset I didn't mean anything by it please don't be mad!" Ruby rambled on about how sorry she was, almost never stopping to take a breath, until Weiss spoke.

"Just sit down and don't ever speak to me again"

"Okay," Ruby's gaze fell, and she sat, a defeated expression on her face.

"Alright! Now that that's all settled," Oobleck exclaimed, "let's all open our textbooks to chapter one!"


As the class ended and lunch began Weiss watched as Ruby bolted from the room, moving almost impossibly fast. I guess she's hungry, Weiss thought as she waved to Blake, a silent agreement that they would meet in their usual spot for lunch. She went to her locker and was annoyed to see the red girl talking to some tall, tough looking blonde girl with lavender eyes. This must be the girl that Blake met this morning.

Weiss walked up to the two girls, brushing them aside, saying in a superior voice, "Excuse me, my locker is here and you two are in the way."

"Eep! Sorry Weiss!" Ruby said, backing away. The blonde girl, however, did not.

"Hey! I heard about what you said to my sister, I think you owe her an apology!"

Weiss regarded her coldly, taking a moment to examine the girl before her. Upon inspection, the girl's hair was very blonde, more of a gold really, bright and vibrant, almost as if it had it's own energy source. There was an intensity to her lavender eyes that made it appear as though the color was changing to red. The girl had earrings that resembled a flame dangling from her ears. She was wearing a brown leather jacket that looked not quite as stylish as Weiss's own jacket, but was clearly more for fashion than function. Under that was a yellow tank top with the same symbol as her earrings on the left side of her rather large chest. She wore black skinny jeans that were cut off at around mid thigh, Weiss had to wonder how that fit into the dress code. To finish off her look she wore knee high brown leather boots with above-the-knee yellow socks, one of which had been pushed down to be level with the top of her boot.

"Why should I apologize?" Weiss asked harshly, "She was the one that bumped into me! I've got a bruise forming on my forehead from where I hit my desk!" To prove her point Weiss moved her bangs aside to show that indeed there was a small bruise forming above her right eye. "And she was rude and disrespectful, insulting me in front of the entire class!"

Ruby jumped in at that at that remark, "I really am sorry about that, sometimes I get worked up and I just say whatever pops into my head. I never meant to hurt your feelings."

"Oh trust me you didn't, I don't spend time caring about insults from people like you." Weiss huffed.

"And what's that supposed to mean?" Ruby asked

"I don't care what hyperactive children with poor judgement say to me that's all."

"Hey! It's only a two year difference!"

"And apparently those two years would've been used to give you coordination and fine motor skills, even though that's something most children have by the age of three, you clearly have yet to acquire those skills."

"Hey!" the blonde girl butted in, "You shouldn't talk to her that way! She's just trying to be nice. She feels really bad about what happened, in case you haven't noticed! You guys don't have to be best friends or anything, just let her know that it's okay so she won't beat herself up for the rest of the day!"

Weiss looked back at Ruby, and for the first time she noticed the girl's face. Her silver eyes were pointing at the floor, and they were brimming with tears. She really did look as though she was about to break down. Weiss sighed. Contrary to popular belief, Weiss did not enjoy hurting other people. Making people feel inferior and actively hurting their feelings were two different things, and Weiss was of the school of thought that believed that a person's individual pain was hard enough to deal with on a daily basis, and there was no excuse for adding to someone's pain. That bitch from freshman year was an exception, Weiss thought.

Weiss's expression softened a little while looking at Ruby, and she put her hand on the girl's shoulder and said, "I accept your apology, Ruby, and I admit, I may have, overreacted a little bit." Ruby glanced up a bit, but still had a teary expression, "Okay, a lot. I'm sorry, I was just shocked is all."

Ruby looked up all the way and looked Weiss in the eyes, "Thank you Weiss." She said, a small smile forming on her face and a gleam in her silver eyes.

Hmph, that's kinda cute, Weiss thought, Wait, what? Where did that come from? I haven't thought anything was cute since… since Blake's cats were kittens. Weiss cleared her throat, feeling her face flush a little at the thoughts she was having. "Now that we've taken care of that, I don't believe I caught your name." Weiss turned to the blonde girl.

"My name is Yang! I'm Ruby's older sister!" Yang stated, as though being Ruby's sister was the proudest thing in her life.

"Well then, Ruby, Yang, I'm glad we could look past these problems. I have to go meet my friend for lunch, but perhaps I'll see you around school later, maybe without the crashing into things."

Ruby nodded enthusiastically, "I hope so, See ya later Weiss!"

"Yeah later," Yang said, still looking a bit suspicious of Weiss.

With that, Weiss turned and entered the library, which just so happened to be next to her locker, which Weiss always considered to be incredibly convenient.
