Okay, before we begin I have something I need to say. STOP LEAVING REVIEWS ASKING WHEN I'M GOING TO UPDATE THIS STORY! YOU ALL KNOW WHO YOU ARE, SO STOP DOING IT! I WILL UPDATE ON MY OWN TIME!

*STILL DON'T OWN RWBY OR ED, EDD N' EDDY!*

Through the Pastures and the Fields We Carry On!

As our group of young protagonists continued their trek to Weiss's brother's house, the atmosphere was surprisingly pleasant. Weiss was leading the charge with Eddy walking next to her, Ed and Ruby trotting close behind, Penny and the rest of their teams making up the bulk and Double D and Blake bringing up the rear.

"Can your brother send me brainwaves too, Weissy?" Ed asked excitedly.

"If only you HAD a brain, Ed." Weiss replied.

"Come on, Weissy, have a heart!" Ed pleaded.

"Yeah, I want your brother to send me brainwaves too, Weiss!" Ruby added.

Yang just laughed at the antics of her boyfriend and her baby sister. It was refreshing to be out here in all this greenery without having to worry about any foul creatures of Grimm, but that didn't mean none of them were on their guard.

"Bark! Bark!" barked Zwei.

"You're right, Zwei. Something tells me that all is not right here." Jaune said to the corgi, who was let out of Ruby's bag just a few minutes ago.

"Courage! Courage, Eddward!" Double D said to himself.

Blake put a comforting hand on Double D's shoulder, getting a smile from the boy. A smile that drew a small blush from the black cat Faunus.

"YEE-HAW!" cried Eddy as he hopped over a fence.

The others just walked through the door, which surprisingly was unlocked, everyone walking down a grassy hill that seemed to give way to a large pasture. Well, more accurately, Ed lost his footing and tumbled down the hill. But Double D and Blake stopped in their tracks when they noticed a sign on the gate.

"Private property? Um, fellows…?" called Double D.

Timidly, he took a step past the gate. Not that Blake entirely blamed him for being so cautious. He told her about the time when all the other kids of the Cul-de-sac began to disregard all of the rules and how it caused him to go temporarily insane. Especially since he ended up calling everyone's parents and telling on them.

In essence, Double D himself ended up breaking the number one rule. Don't squeal.

Once Double D and Blake had crossed the gate, the boy booked it for the others.

"WAIT, STOP!" shouted Double D.

Blake quickly closed the gate and ran off to catch up with everyone else. She too didn't want to risk anything by trespassing on someone else's property.

"GUYS, COME BACK! WE'RE TRESPASSING!" shouted/warned Blake.

But no one seemed to heed her and Double D's warnings. In fact, Weiss just seemed to brush them off as easily as Eddy did.

"Trespass, shmespass! It's a shortcut." Weiss said nonchalantly.

"Hey Weiss, not that I don't approve of the sudden change in personality, but why're you actin' like this?" Eddy asked.

Weiss just smiled and kissed her boyfriend on the cheek before slinging an arm over his shoulder, grabbing a nearby stick in her free hand as she did.

"I'm just happy to finally be free for once! No longer do I have to be Weiss Schnee, heiress of the Schnee Dust Company. Now, I can just be a regular teenage girl! A normal girl with normal knees, as Ruby would say." Weiss explained.

Ruby grinned at that statement as ran a little faster to catch up to her BFF. But Ed just tripped over his own two feet and fell on top of Nora at the base of the hill. He peeled his face up off the ground, letting Nora gulp down a breath of fresh air before they both saw something that made them get stars in their eyes.

"LOOK GUYS! MOO-MOOS THERE! MOO-MOOS EVERYWHERE!" Ed shouted, referring to the cows.

"They're soooo cute!" squealed Nora. "Can we keep on, Ren? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? CAN WE?!"

"No, Nora. We cannot, because these cows already belong to someone." Ren said.

Nora pouted at her childhood friend/not-so-secret crush while Ed just ran ahead, attempting to pet as many cows as he could. That was almost the exact same excuse he gave her when she asked if they could adopt a baby sloth.

"Not to worry, Nora. I'm certain my brother would be more than willing to let you adopt a calf. After all, he's raised a billion cows! A regular stampede of them!" Weiss bragged.

That little bit of information caused Ed and Nora to look at the white haired girl in awe. Even as flies swarmed over Ed's head due to his own natural stench.

"Your brother's got Moo-Moos, Weissy?" Ed asked excitedly.

Weiss frowned as she saw the swarm of flies over their heads and swatted them away with her new walking stick. Clearly, Yang hasn't fully instilled the meaning of good hygiene into her boyfriend yet.

If only it weren't so gosh darned hard to stay mad at the loveable oaf.

"Haven't we poked and prodded fate enough for one day?! I'm frightened!" whimpered Double D.

"Poor little ol' Sockhead. You're so neeve." Eddy said.

"I think you mean 'naive', Eddy." Pyrrha corrected.

"That too."

Weiss skipped along - yes, SKIPPED - with a wide toothy smile on her face. Something that is rarely seen on the face of Beacon's resident Ice Queen.

"Eddy's right. My brother Whitley would NEVER let anything bad happen to me! And I'll tell you what, I'll put in a good word for all of you."

"Thanks Weiss!" Yang said, a smile making its way to her own face.

"Indeed, thank you. Your brother certainly is a kind, upstanding and generous human being." Double D said, feeling a little calmer.

"He's got Moo-Moos, Double D!" Ed said with excitement.

Zwei barked excitedly as he ran around the group with his ever present smile on his face. And he was even happier when Ruby started running alongside him.

"Yeah, well… When exactly are we going to get to your brother's house, Weiss?" Blake asked.

But the girl's response was NOT what any of them were expecting.

"Beats me. I don't know where he lives."

Only Eddy, Ed, Nora, Yang, Ruby, Penny and Zwei weren't affected by that news. While one half of the group kept moving forward, the other half stopped in their tracks. Double D was the first to recover as he ran in front of Weiss and the others.

"PARDON?! Are you saying that all this time you've been leading us to nowhere?!" Double D demanded.

Weiss just used her walking stick to hoist him up by his sock hat and move him to the side before getting rid of the stick.

"No, I'm taking you to Whitley's place, smart guy. You just need to figure out where it is." Weiss said.

"Oh, let me Weissy! I have a good figure!" Ed said.

While everyone else ran off ahead, Double D and Blake facepalmed while the rest of their concerned group sighed and dropped their heads in defeat. It was clear that they weren't going to get through to their friends at this rate.

But that doesn't mean that they weren't going to try. And Jaune was gonna start them off.

"THE HILLS ARE ALIVE, YANG!" shouted Ed.

"Yeah, with the sounds of a handsome man!" Yang said, looping her arms around one of Ed's.

"More like the sounds of an idiot." Eddy quipped.

"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!" Jaune ordered in his 'Team Leader Voice'. "We're not taking one more step until we know for sure where your brother is, Weiss!"

Although his tone left no room for argument, Weiss wasn't at all intimidated.

"Did you forget to pay the brain bill?" Weiss asked/quipped.

Just as Jaune was about to reply, Pyrrha caught up and tried to reason with her friends.

"But Weiss, you never even told us that you HAVE a brother until just today! We've got nothing to go on!" Pyrrha said.

In response to this, Weiss and Eddy just ran between their two friends' legs, making them cross their legs and look embarrassed at what just happened. Had these guys no concept of PERSONAL SPACE?!

"Better hurry up, Whitley Bro's a-waitin'!" Eddy said.

Jaune and Pyrrha were still a little bit insecure about what just happened, but had no more time to actually BE embarrassed as they were both bowled over by an overly excited Ruby. The hooded girl was now clinging to Weiss's leg as she looked up at her partner with big doe eyes.

"Weiss, wait! Do you think I could get your brother's autograph?" Ruby asked.

Weiss snickered a bit before pulling out her wallet and taking something out of it.

"Ta-Dah!"

Weiss revealed the item to be a postcard, and on the back was her brother's signature. But we don't see it well enough to actually determine where it was sent from.

"Like this one?" Weiss asked/bragged.

Ruby sat up and suddenly got stars in her eyes as she looked at the piece of paper in front of her.

"Weiss's brother's autograph…!"

Ruby began grinning like a maniac, thinking about how awesome it would be to have one. And then…

*YOINK!*

"Thank you!" Ruby said.

You guessed it. She swiped the postcard right out of Weiss's hands. And the white haired girl was not at all pleased by this.

"Give it back, Ruby! Whitley sent ME that postcard!" Weiss yelled.

She pounced on Ruby and initiated a kind of wrestling match with the girl, willing to do almost anything to get the postcard back.

"You're gonna wreck it!" Weiss exclaimed.

"Autograph, Weiss!" whined Ruby.

"I'll autograph your face with my foot! Gimme it!" Weiss growled.

But Ruby managed to hold the card just out of the girl's reach. Clearly she was determined to keep that 'autograph', and wasn't letting it go without a fight.

"DIVE, CAPTAIN! DIVE!" shouted Ed as he bodyslammed the two girls into the ground.

But none of them noticed that Penny had managed to take the postcard from Ruby just before impact. And she was now looking at it with rapt attention.

"A postcard? This could be the very clue we need!" Penny said to herself. "Double D, I must borrow your magnifying glass!"

Weiss was still searching both Ruby and Ed for the postcard, and just opened Ed's jacket sleeve to look for it. Bad idea, as she was hit right in the face by the stench of a thousand dumpsters. Apparently, Sheldon Junior left some lingering smell in that jacket.

She quickly closed the sleeve and looked away to take a breath of fresh air. That's when she saw Penny looking through Double D's magnifying glass as she held her postcard. And that did not sit well with Weiss.

"Hey! Give that back!" Weiss demanded.

She ran off, allowing Ed and Ruby to breath. And oh look, Ed found a crayon.

"A postmark will lead us directly to… DRATS! It's illegible!" Penny said.

But she soon got a face full of angry Weiss as the girl took the postcard back from the robot with a soul.

"You probably smudged it!" Weiss said.

Penny frowned as Weiss walked away with the postcard. Was it something she said?

Meanwhile, Ed was using the crayon that fell out of his pocket to draw on something. But the crayon was promptly taken by Double D.

"May I borrow this, Ed? Thank you." Double D asked, not waiting for a response.

Meanwhile, Eddy had joined up with Weiss who was now carefully putting the postcard back into her wallet. She was still a bit peeved about Ruby and Ed's earlier actions, and didn't mean to snap at Penny like that. Oh well, she'd resolved to apologize later.

But she was suddenly hit in the face by a cow's udder, making her stumble back and fall on her butt.

"ED!" shouted Eddy.

As for Weiss, she just pulled the udder off of her face to reveal that… Oh, so that's what Ed was drawing on. It was a poorly drawn portrait of Weiss with a mustache. Heaven knows why.

"I drew a picture for your brother, Weiss. Think he'll like it?" Ed asked.

Weiss seemed a bit uncomfortable. A few bad memories were beginning to surface, and she needed to get as far away from that picture as possible.

"Uh… Hey Blake, where'd you go?" called Weiss.

That's when Ed lost his balance and got squashed from the neck down by that cow. And the cow didn't seem hurt at all. Although it did moo in slight discomfort.

After walking for a few minutes, Weiss came across the whole group, sans Ed, gathered in front of a spider web. On the web were various leaves that Double D had written on with the crayon he took from Ed.

"Weiss, Blake and I have found several key communicatives we've unknowingly had with your brother!" Double D reported.

"That's right. And among those are his shuddersome blizzard Dust recipes, his scandalous scams, oh and my favorite, merciless pranks on April first. Together with several other contentious, callous cons lead us to believe that your brother's quite the jokester." Blake reported.

"You'd better believe it! He's the king, baby!" Weiss said.

She flicked Blake in the nose, making the cat Faunus shoot an annoyed look at the Schnee heiress. She's been spending WAY too much time with Eddy.

"Yes, well… Where might one groom this tendency to pranks and puerile practical jokes?" Blake asked.

In the background, Ed was just looking on with that same stupid grin he usually has on his face. But he was in fact listening to everything that had been said… And he got a brainstorm.

"I GOT IT!" yelled Ed.

He took out a comic book and slapped it on the spider web for everyone to see.

"It says so in my comic book! 'Pranks and puerile practical jokes at the Honeybrook Gag Factory'." Ed said while reading the Ad aloud.

"My, what a strange coincidence." Penny said offhandedly.

Right before Nora ripped the comic off the web with wide eyes and a scowl on her face.

"HONEYBROOK?!" she asked incredulously.

She started grumbling something about 'sloth haters' and 'honey gulpin' know-it-alls' as she read the ad. It seems like there's bad blood between the valkyrie and this strange village.

"Nuh-uh, Nora!" Ed said, taking back his comic. "No autograph, no comic book!"

Nora facepalmed at Ed's stupidity. She doesn't want the comic, if anything, she wants pancakes! But she won't be getting any since Ren doesn't have the ingredients or a place to make them. That's when an anime lightbulb appeared over Yang's head.

"WAIT, THAT'S IT WEISS! Your brother might work at the Gag Factory! Or at the very least, be a regular customer!" Yang theorized.

That caused Weiss's grin to return ten fold. So much so, she could put the Joker to shame.

"I bet he's there right now!" Weiss said.

"OH BOY, OH BOY! I FORGET WHAT WE'RE DOING!" shouted Ed, wagging his butt like Zwei does his tail.

*To Be Continued…*

I'm sorry for yelling earlier, but I just HAD to get that out of my system. You guys have GOT to understand that I don't like getting reviews that ask when a story is going to be updated. Especially if you spam those reviews. And about the poll for my Jaune 23 story. I've decided to just flip a coin on that one. Won't happen until later though, so there's still time. See ya next chapter!
