Chapter 3: Weekend Plans...
AN: Hope you guys liked the longer chapter in CH 2. I'll try to shoot for chapters that are 2k to 2.5k while starting out.
Beep Beep Beep
"Ughhhh... Ruby! You forgot to turn off the alarm again it's the weekend!" Yang complained as she threw a pillow at her younger sibling.
"Hey! We need to get packing, I don't expect that Ozpin wants his newest graduates to freeload on the fact that they have dorm access still! Wow... I'm starting to sound like Weiss now... Creepy..."
Weiss gave a small chuckle as she heard Ruby said how much she had begun to sound like her older partner.
"She isn't wrong Yang. We should get our stuff packed up and drive to our apartment, we can figure out what we want to do from there." Blake stated.
"I guess you're right Blakey... All we really should need to pack up is our clothes, dust, and ammo right?"
"We also can't forget our weapons remember? We put them in our lockers just like usual." Ruby said like they would have forgotten such an important detail.
"We'll simply pick them up on the way out Ruby. The lockers are on the ground floor and are near an exit anyways." Weiss stated
An hour later, Team RWBY finally is packed up and is riding over to their new apartments on the south side of Vale.
"It's so much fun to finally be able to drive!" Ruby exclaimed with much enthusiasm.
"Hey dolt! Watch where you are in your lane!" Weiss nearly screamed
"Sorry... I kinda lose focus when I'm excited like this"
"Yea, and you also have a brick for a foot, because we are going 10mph over the speed limit Ruby..." Weiss deadpanned
"Dust Weiss... You take all the fun out of driving..." Ruby pouted
"I'm just trying to not die before I turn 30." Weiss deadpanned
"Oh come on Weiss, I'm not THAT bad of a driver..."
"No, but you aren't that great of a driver either Rose..."
"No, you aren't. You certainly are not worse than your insufferable sister..."
"Come on Blake! It'll be fun!" Yang exclaimed
"Yang, we both know how recklessly you drive Bumblebee, please just let me drive. I don't want to have to pay a speeding ticket with our first job's pay." Blake said with a motherly tone
"Fine... I know you'll be careful with my bike. I'm just overprotective of it. My dad got it for me on my 16th birthday, took all the lien he had from teaching at Signal for him to buy that bike. It was originally grey, but he spent extra to get it painted yellow just for me"
"Well, maybe we should add a little black to it? You know, for contrast?" Blake questioned.
"I see what you're doing… Sure, If we are both going to ride it, we ought to make it ours instead of just mine! We can do that before we go to the bar in a week."
"Then I guess it's settled. Let's get our stuff strapped on and head out. Ruby and Weiss probably beat us there with how fast your sister drives that little car…"
"Trust me, I can get us there faster. I know ALL the back roads and alleyways that she can't fit through."
"Ok Yang, let's get our helmets on and win this race!"
"Oooh, getting competitive now Kitten?"
"I always like a good competition, you know that!"
"Well, you're gonna have to drive hard and fast!"
Within twenty minutes, Yang and Blake had managed to arrive at their apartment on the south side of Vale, with Ruby and Weiss who left fifteen minutes before the bees did, arriving ten minutes later.
"Ugh, Weiss! You made us lose! I told you we should have turned down Valeshire road!"
"Sorry Ruby, I'm still not well accustomed to the roads in Vale yet. I lived in Atlas for so long, and always had a chauffeur."
"It's ok. Next time though, let me use the Vaze app on my Scroll. It has active traffic tracking through everyone else on the road, so if someone reports an accident or something up ahead, it can re-route us!"
"Alright you two, can we just get our key and get our stuff unpacked? I'd like to get a little rest in before we go out and do some more stuff today." Blake questioned
"Yea, and I'd like to set up that room that's gonna be our weapons and gear room. My babies may be compact, but they still weigh a lot on my wrists." Yang said enthusiastically
"Fine… Weiss, let's get our stuff out of the trunk."
"Hey! Be careful! Myrtenaster's in that box!"
"I will! Have you forgotten how well I take care of my sweetheart?"
"She does have a point…"
"I hope Yang is done working on that weapons room. We are gonna need it be done quickly, I don't want to keep Myrtenaster in the box for much longer."
Inside the apartment complex
"Helloooo! We need our apartment key. We just recently purchased an apartment, name's Yang Xiao Long." Yang told the receptionist.
"Oh! Hello Ms. Xiao Long, Let's see… Ah! Here's your apartment, and your key, you will be in Apartment number 205."
"Thanks miss!"
"You are welcome!"
"Well Blake, let's go get that weapons room prepared so Weiss and Ruby can go put their weapons up."
"Alright, do you have the box of Dust vials and crystals? And the metal cabinets for the weapons?"
"Yep, everything is here!"
"Well, let's haul it in there and get set up!"
In a matter of five minutes, Blake and Yang got the CCTS Uplink room converted into their armory. Then Weiss and Ruby entered the apartment, as Blake and Yang decided to leave the door open and went into the newly converted armory.
"Sweet! It looks awesome!" Ruby was excited for something better than a locker room.
"Yep, we color coded the cabinets so that each of us would never argue over who's is who's." Blake stated.
"Good, I don't want to open up my locker one day, and there be Yang's combat outfit and folded up gauntlets…"
"And I wouldn't want to find Myrtenaster in my locker!" Yang retorted.
"Well, let's get some rest and we can figure out what to go do with our free time." Weiss stated.
Two Hours Later
"Ok, so, let's see… Oh… It's raining… I guess we don't really have much we can go do in the rain…" Ruby pouted.
"We have our board game!" Yang proclaimed.
"Oooh, Right! I'll go get it!" Ruby proceeded to speed off to where she left her things and pick out the "Conquer Remnant" strategy game to play. "I'm back! I assume you guys remember how to play?"
"I think we could use a refresher, it's been about 3 years since we have played…" Blake deadpanned.
"I concur" Weiss said flatly.
"Alright, well here's the rules…" Ruby began.
AN: I had hoped to give this to you guys right on the dot Midnight CST of New Years Eve, buuut... A game of Grimm Eclipse got in the way... But I hope you all enjoyed it, and don't forget to R and R!
