Weiss woke up and stretched her arms. While her body was a bit sore from last night's…'exertions', she was in a very good mood.

Looking to her right, she found herself staring at her little angel. Galath was snoring slowly, his arms splayed out and his hair ruffled. Weiss spent a few minutes staring at her lover, before quietly sliding out of bed.

Grabbing a bathrobe from the side table, Weiss quickly clothed herself, noting the bruises that ran across her collarbone.

"I'll have to cover those later-"

Ding. The sound of the doorbell made Weiss jump. She wasn't expecting guests today.

"If I ignore them they'll go away-"

DINGDINGDINGDINGDING. The doorbell begun to ring endlessly, due to someone leaning against the button.

"...damn it." Weiss walked over to the door and yanked the door open. "WILL YOU STOP RINGING MY DOORBELL-"

"Hiya Weissy~!" Yang Xiaolong grabbed Weiss and pulled her into a hug. "I hope you don't mind if I crash here for a bit-"

"Get. Out. Now." Weiss said through clenched teeth. Her expression was fierce. Internally, she was panicking.

If Yang saw Galath. Weiss really didn't want to imagine the consequences of such a meeting.

"But, Weiissyyyy-"

"Now Yang Xiaolong!"

"Weiiis, please-"

"No!" Weiss felt a teeny bit bad for being so harsh, but her need to protect Galath overrode whatever guilt she felt. "This is a bad time Yang!"

A silence followed, long enough that Weiss thought Yang had left. As per usual, she was wrong.

"Weiss." Yang's tone immediately set alarm bells ringing in Weiss' head. "Is there a boy in there with you?"

Shit. Weiss silently cursed at Yang's logic. The one time she didn't want Yang to be smart, she becomes bloody Sherlock. "Of course not!"

"Then why won't you let me in?"

"Because-hwah!?" Weiss yelped as someone nibbled her ear.

"Weiss?" Yang's voice changed to one of genuine worry. "Weiss, are you ok?"

Weiss however, was no longer listening, as she had to focus all her strength into not moaning.

"Good morning~" Galath breathed into the heiress' ear, sending little shivers down her spine. "Did you sleep well?"

"N-not now." Weiss mumbled, her attention still on the door. No doubt Yang was straining to hear through the wooden divider. The silence she was hearing did not bode well-

Click. The sound of Ember Celica being cocked rang in Weiss' ears.

No, she wouldn't-

"Down!" Weiss shouted, jumping onto Galath and forcing him to the ground.

A moment later, the door exploded. Yang, eyes burning red, jumped through the wreckage. Upon seeing Weiss and Galath on the ground, Yang's eyes flared.

"Let. Her. Go." Yang said, her weapons poised to fire. "Now!"

"Weiss, get back." Galath muttered, having rolled over mid-fall to shield Weiss. Galath slowly stood up so he was facing Yang. "Who are you?"

"The lady who's going to break your legs if you don't get out of this apartment now." Yang replied.

"I see." Galath cracked his neck. "So we're enemies then."

"We are." Yang agreed.

"Guys-" Weiss tried to intervene, realising that a brawl was about to start in her apartment.

Before she could finish however, the two hunters had lunged at each other.

Yang's fist crashed into Galath's stomach at the exact same time his kick landed in her abdomen.

Both of them stumbled backwards, having each unintentionally countered their opponent's respective strikes.

In the next instant, Yang had lunged forward, her feet sliding against the ground while her fist was posed to strike Galath's face.

Galath, upon seeing Yang's rush, raised his arms in preparation for a counter.

Another exchange, with Galath using his left forearm to deflect Yang's fist so that it brushed past his cheek, while simultaneously lashing out with his right.

Yang however, managed to barely tilt her head to the side, dodging Galath's attack by an inch.

The two hunters once again separated, this time landing about three meters from each other.

"..."

"..."

Both parties stared at each other in silence.

"...you're pretty good." Yang admitted.

"You're not half-bad yourself." Galath replied. "If you hadn't broken into my lover's apartment and made me your enemy, I'd have been honored to call you a friend."

Weiss swore she could hear something in Yang's mind click.

"Lo-ver?" Yang intoned slowly, her gaze turning to Weiss.

"Yes." Galath continued, completely unaware of the horrible ramifications of what his actions were to soon bring. "I'm Weiss' boyfriend."

"...Weiiiiis." Yang's eyes begun to blaze again. "Why didn't you mention this to momma Yang?"

"Yang?" Galath's eyes widened. "You're Weiss' teammate!" Immediately, Galath fell to his knees in a seiza position. "I'm so sorry for attacking you like that! I didn't know!"

"It's alright." Yang replied, her attention still on the heiress, who was now shaking a bit. "Weiss didn't mention you to me either, otherwise I wouldn't have tried to punch your lights out."

"She didn't?" Galath too turned his attention to Weiss, who seemed to shrink even further. "But, she told me-"

"Yaaah!" Suddenly, Weiss' window exploded open. An individual rolled across the ground before righting himself, revealing himself to be Ferris Iscariot. "Ms. Schnee, get down-" Ferris slowly trailed off upon recognising the individuals within the apartment. "...oh, nevermind. Guess we should have run the audio through the database before jumping to conclusion-" Ferris once again stopped speaking upon realising what he'd just said. "-ah…"

"Ferris." Weiss Schnee's voice was calm, but a insane amount of anger was noticeable behind her tone. Subconsciously, both Galath and Yang took a step back. "What do you mean by audio?"

"Ah. Ah." Ferris opened and closed his mouth, but no excuses were coming out. "...I'm dead aren't I?"

As it turned out, he was right.


Fenris and Ferris Iscariot. The undefeatable couple. The strongest of Hunters in history. These two individuals were feared all across the globe as being [Invincible]. Their names would no doubt be written in history books as the paragons of power and might.

These two were currently kneeling on the ground, their foreheads planted on the floor.

"So let me get this straight." Weiss Schnee was seated on the couch directly in front of these two monster-class Hunters. Galath and Yang had retreated into the kitchen, a prospect that Weiss would normally be terrified about. The current situation however, took precedent over that. "You two bugged my apartment?"

"...Yes." Ferris said, shaking like a leaf.

"And you were listening to the audio?"

"Yes." Fenris responded this time. Unlike her partner, her voice was straight. "It was for security purposes-"

"Does this include the entirety of last night?" Had either Fenris and Ferris looked up, they would have seen that Weiss' face was completely crimson colored.

"..."

"..."

"I want an answer." Weiss repeated. "Did you, or did you not, listen in on my apartment last night?"

"...Perhaps you should consider using lubricant if it hurts so much-" Ferris begun, only to get his head smashed deep into the ground as Weiss' foot crashed into the back of his head.

"You did huh?" Weiss was literally spitting flames at this point. Her gaze turned to Fenris' prone form, which was now shaking slightly. "Any last words?"

Fenris looked up at Weiss, her eyes illustrating her acceptance of her fate. "Rain falls. Wind blows. The strong devour the weak. All is right in the world."

Weiss nodded her head in respect of Fenris' bravery. "Well said."

Then she kicked Fenris too, knocking her unconscious.


"Well, that was annoying." Weiss sighed, stepping into the kitchen. "Those two..ugh!"

Only to be immediately confronted with another major problem.

That was, she had left Yang and Galath alone.

Yang and Galath.

Yang.

The very last person Weiss ever wanted to know about Galath.

"Weiss~!" Yang shifted her attention from Galath to the heiress. "Why didn't you tell me you had such a good man!"

"T-thanks." Weiss stuttered, sensing the unspoken meaning behind Yang's words.

"Princess-" Weiss felt her heart flutter at Galath's words. "-why didn't you tell me that Yang was so funny! You always made her sound like an absolute demon-"

"Really Weiss?" Yang gave Weiss a smile that sent a shudder down her spine.

"-but she's amazing!" Galath finished, blissfully unaware of the time bomb he had just activated.

"See Weiss!" Yang glared at Weiss. "I'm amazing."

"Uh-um." Weiss stuttered, genuinely unsure of what to say at this point of time.

Yang, as if sensing her unease, walked over and wrapped her arm around Weiss' shoulders.

"Sooo since I'm now acquainted with your significant other, why don't you meet mine?" Yang gave Galath a wink. "I'm thinking a nice double date may be a good idea, don't you agree Galath?"

"That sounds wonderful." Galath, completely unaware of Weiss' internal suffering at the whole situation, answered. "I would love to meet Dusk!"

"Perfect!" Yang, not even waiting for Weiss' reply, clapped Weiss on the shoulders. "I'll see you guys this Friday at 8 then!"

Weiss felt her heart plummet into her stomach.

This was not going to end well.


"Feed me." Ruby said, her head lying on Blake's lap. A plate of strawberries with cream lay on the table next to the couch. "Aaaaa."

"Geez." Blake sighed, a smile on her face. She reached over and plopped a cream-covered strawberry into her leader's mouth. "There."

"Mmmm." Ruby chewed on the sweet treat, before letting out a tiny burp. "Ooops."

"Manners." Blake intoned, poking Ruby on the nose. "What would Yang say if she heard you do that?"

"She'd burp the alphabet." Ruby replied with a giggle.

"That...is probably true." Blake admitted. A silence permeated the room before Blake finally opened her mouth. "So Ruby, I think we should talk about u-"

"Gah!" The dorm room door suddenly exploded and Weiss Schnee stormed in. "You insufferable little-"

"Hey watch the language!" Yang said, following in after the heiress. A wide smile split her face as she watched Weiss collapse on her bed. "Why are you so against this anyway? It'll be fun!"

"Fun!?" Weiss glared at Yang. "You think it'll be fun!?"

"Well, yeah!" Yang grinned. "I mean, he seems like a nice guy and I want to know-"

"Yang. He's underage."

"I'm pretty sure that's a kink. You know, sleeping with older women-"

"Yang, I'm a Schnee."

"Yeah so-?"

"Do you remember what happened with Winter and Cassian?" Weiss placed her hand on her chest. "If the tabloids catches wind of what I'm doing, there's a good chance that the Schnee name will be tarnished beyond recognition."

"Is he worth it?"

"Wha-"

"Is he worth it." Yang repeated, staring Weiss dead in the eye.

"I-I-" Weiss stuttered. "I-I-"

"Don't worry, nobody but us will hear this." Yang prompted. "Just relax and say what you really feel."

"I-yes." Weiss nodded, feeling relief flow through her as she spoke. "Yes, yes he is."

"Good." Yang gave Weiss a sunny smile, which the heiress returned. "Now then, let's go clothes shopping!"

"Wait, what-" Weiss didn't even manage to finish her sentence before the blonde brawler dragged her out of the dorm room.

"Well...that was interesting." Ruby said, as the door swung shut behind the pair.

"Indeed."

"Now, were you trying to say something Blake?"

"Oh that." Blake waved her hand in front of her face. "It can wait."


AHAHAHA YOU ALL THOUGHT I WAS GONE DIDN'T YOU! WELL I'M NOT!

Though seriously, sorry for the delay. I've been busy to say the least. Plus writers block. Which may be noticeable in this chapter. I apologise.

Well, the ending of Season 3 really is something...yeah I don't really know what else to say but that.

I did like it though.

Anyway, comment what you think of either the chapter or the volume as a whole! I'm curious to hear your thoughts.
