"Where could she be?" Weiss furiously paced the room, while Ruby and Blake watched with concerned looks. When the group had gotten back to the dorm room, they were surprised to find it empty.
"Weiss, I wouldn't worry about it, this isn't the first time Yang has been out all night," Blake spoke, trying to calm the heiress down. This was true, Yang did have a habit of pulling all-nighters, and it was something she had been telling herself since the blonde hadn't returned to the shared room last night. However, a voice in the back of her mind was telling her to go look for her partner.
"Really, Blake, considering how she has been acting lately, I don't know how you can be okay with this," Weiss shouted at the raven-haired girl, who was sitting on her bed.
"Of course I'm not okay with this, but there isn't much I can do." Blake shot back. "If I knew where she was, I would drag her back here, but I don't, so we just have to wait." Blake looked down at her feet, anxiety building in her chest.
"The least Yang could do is send us a message on her scroll. Would that be too much to ask..." Weiss continued on.
"Weiss." The white-haired girl looked at her leader, who had been sitting quietly on the bottom bunk. "Blake's right, Yang's not going to do anything that might get her in trouble, she'll be fine when she comes back," Ruby said, trying to reassure her team. Weiss opened her mouth, getting ready to fire back at the younger girl when a knock at the door interrupted her. The team looked at each other before Weiss stepped forward to answer the door.
"That's probably her now, I swear if she has lost her keys again." Weiss pulled the door open, ready to give Yang a piece of her mind. However, it wasn't the team's brawler standing there, it was a girl wearing sunglasses with brown hair.
"Coco." the red-themed team member eyed the upper classmate suspiciously. The team was thrown off by the unusual appearance of the older girl. "What are you doing here? it's not that you're not welcomed." Ruby quickly added the last part, Weiss rolled her eyes at her leader.
"How can we help you, Coco?" The heiress politely asked the older classmate.
"Hey guys, sorry to intrude, but I was looking for Yang." Coco peered over her sunglasses, scanning the room, at the sound of her partner's name, Blake raised an eyebrow. "But, I can see she's not here."
"No, she's been gone all night," Ruby informed the girl, Blake didn't miss the crease between Coco's eyebrows and the look of confusion on her face.
"Is there a reason you're looking for Yang?", Blake eyed the girl curiously, her eyes narrowed.
"When was the last time you saw her?" Coco folded her arms to her chest, questioning the girls, who just exchanged looks to one another.
"We were hanging out after class yesterday, but." Ruby paused for a moment, taking a second to decide whether she should continue. "She left shortly after that." This earned another strange look from Coco.
"So, you don't know what happened to Cardin, then?" They all shook their heads in response, the brunette let out a heavy sigh."Look, I don't know if it's my place to tell you, but Yang Broke Cardin's nose." Everybody's mouth fell open, trying to process the information.
"She did what?" Weiss's voice rang out through the room, knocking everybody out of there own shock. The heiress was livid at the news.
"Wait, what do you mean she broke Cardin's nose?" Ruby questioned the girl.
"Just how it sounds, Ruby, your sister was trying to help Velvet, but apparently she completely lost it." Coco leaned on the door frame.
"Lost it, what do you mean by that?" Blake stood up, walking towards the door.
"For what Velvet told me, after Cardin called her an animal, Yang lost her temper and attacked him. When she finally snapped out of it, she ran without another word," Coco told them. "Look, I know you're probably concerned, and you would like to talk to her when she gets back, but could you let Yang know I'm looking for her?"
"Yeah, that's not a problem, Coco. Thanks for letting us know." Weiss exchanged her goodbyes before shutting the door. As soon as the door closed she world around towards the remaining team members, her jaw clenched. "No wonder that oaf didn't come back last night, attacking students."
"Wait, so, it's Yang's fault for Cardin being a racist asshole." Blake shot back, shaking with anger. "She should've just let Cardin continue doing what he was doing," Blake shouted at the heiress.
"That's not what I meant, and you know it, but she can't get away with attacking someone, how will it look on our team." Weiss folded her arms, Blake clenched her fist.
"I would have hoped that our team would have defended her actions, for sticking up for Velvet." Blake stood nose to nose with the heiress.
"Yeah, well, how did that turn out for the White Fang?" Weiss's eyes narrowed.
"You can't be seriously comparing Yang to the white fang." Blake laughed in disbelief. Before Weiss could fire back, she was interrupted.
"Guys, that is enough," Ruby said firmly, standing in between the two and pushing the girls away from each other. "Look, guys, we don't know what happened, we just need to wait until Yang gets back."
"Fine." Weiss sighed, plopping down on her bed.
"I'm going out." Blake stormed past Ruby, slamming the door behind her.
"Sorry." Ruby looked to the heiress. "I shouldn't have compared Yang to the white fang." Weiss looked down, avoiding Ruby's eyes. "I just ended up getting a little heated." Ruby couldn't hide her annoyance at the comment.
"Weiss, I get it, you said it without thinking, but Yang is nothing like them, and I just hope you don't believe that." Ruby looked down on the girl sitting on the bed.
"Of course I don't," Weiss snapped at her. "But, whatever is going on with her, we need to find out." Weiss looked away from her leader. Ruby sat down next to the girl, a defeated look on her face.
"I know, your right. But, I don't think it will be as easy as just asking her what is wrong." Ruby rested her elbows on her knees, staring out into space. "Yang has always tried to hide her problems from me, it's like, she doesn't think I'm able to hand it or at least help her." Weiss gave the girl a sympathetic look.
" I don't think that's the case. Since I've known Yang, I don't think I've ever heard her complain about her problems. In fact, she normally, so happy go lucky, I forget she has problems too." The red-caped girl nodded her head in agreement. "But, I promise you, Ruby, we'll get to the bottom of this." The older girl placed her hand on the younger girls'.
Blake
The Faunus stormed through the halls, mumbling under her breath, thinking about the conversation running through her head. `What's her problem, anytime I think Weiss has changed, she says something that just proves me wrong.` She thought to herself, though she knew it wasn't true, Weiss was an entirely different person from when they first met. As soon as Blake pulled the door open to exit the building, she was shocked to find a blonde girl staring back at her, her arm outstretched to pull the door open.
"Yang." the Faunus looked over her partner, scanning the girl. Yang was wearing the same clothes from the previous day, Blake watched the girl with concern, Yang had bags under her eyes, her movement was sluggish. it was clear that the girl had not slept all night. "What happened?" before she could respond, a voice interrupted her.
"Hey, Yang," Both girls turned to see Coco standing in the halls behind Blake.
"Oh, Hey, Coco." The blonde looked anywhere but the older classmen. Coco peered over her glasses, looking the girl up and down.
"What happened to you, rough night?" Blake turned her eyes to copy the brown-haired girl's action. Yang scratched the back of her head before letting out a heavy sigh.
"Yeah, you could say that." The brawler forced a smile on to her face, but Blake could tell it was fake. "Anyway, what's up?"
"It's about yesterday, with Velvet." Yang tensed at the mention of the Faunus's name. "Look, I really appreciate what you did for her."
"Yeah, don't worry about it. As long as she is okay." Yang tried to brush Coco off, and Blake could tell this conversation was making the girl uncomfortable.
"Cardin has been messing with Vel since he has gotten to this school, about time someone got to him." Coco gave her a signature smile.
"Yeah, shame she couldn't rely on her team leader," Yang mumbled under her breath, but it wasn't quite enough as both girls heard her.
"What did you just say." Coco scowled at the girl in front of her, while Blake's mouth hung open, in stunned silence. She was shocked, it wasn't like Yang to be so blunt.
I think you heard me." Yang said, but her words held no fire behind them as if she was being forced to say this to her friend.
I'm going to ignore that you just said that to me. Only because you helped Velvet, but I can assure you, Xiao long, that isn't true. The only reason I haven't dealt with Cardin, myself is that Velvet asked me not too. " Blake could see that coco was visibly angry.
"Look, Coco, Yang has had a long night, she didn't mean what she said." Blake stepped in, trying to calm the situation.
"Fine, I hope that is all it is."Coco turned away from the two, leaving them alone. Blake turned, her eyes narrowing at the Blonde, who still had her eyes on Coco.
"What was that about Yang?" She snapped the girl out of her thoughts.
"Nothing, like you said, I'm just tired." Yang tried to walk past the Faunus, but Blake didn't move out of her way.
"Even if that was the case, that doesn't explain why you attacked Cardin." Blake folded her arms.
"Tell her, it was because you were jealous of the monkey boy." The voice spoke up, causing Yang to clench her teeth.
"I was trying to stick up for Velvet, is that so wrong." Yang threw her arms in the air.
"Of course not, but why did we have to find out by a knock on the door, because you were out all night." Blake pointed out. "Couldn't you at least send us a message."
"Blake, it's not like I was planning to stay out all night, it just happened." Yang pushed past the girl.
"Do you think I'm just going to believe that? Yang, you're seriously going to get into trouble. You can't just disappear like that." Yang rolled her eyes, which threw Blake off, it was rare to see the girl do this action.
"You would know about disappearing, wouldn't you." Blake recoiled, not expecting Yang to come out with something so cold, Yang knew she shouldn't have said it, but anytime she looked at the cat Faunus, she could only see her with Sun, jealousy still lingering from the day before.
"You know what Yang, do what you want, I don't care." Before Yang could apologize the Faunus was away. Yang stared to the ground, anger and disgust building in her stomach.
