Yo, I noticed this story isn't getting that much love, but that doesn't matter, because I'm mainly writing this for me because I love this series so much. So anyways, on with this chapter! The sparring classes are finally coming up soon, so Jaye gets to show his mad SKILLZ jk he doesn't really, but that's not the point.
'Step forward Miss Schnee, and prepare yourself!' Professor Port exclaimed with glee. Weiss, now in full battle gear, poised herself before the snarling cage, Myrtenaster leveled to strike.
'Go Weiss! Represent Teeaaam RRWBY!' Ruby shouted, pumping her fists, and Weiss turned on her angrily.
'Ruby! I'm trying to focus!' The heiress reprimanded her, and Ruby's face fell.
'Oh, sorry…' The red-head mumbled, lowering her hands quietly. Returning her attention to the cage, Weiss took a deep breath.
'Alright, let the match, begin!' The professor slashed the lock off the cage, and a Boarbatusk burst through the door, almost immediately charging at the white-haired girl.
Weiss twirled to the side so avoid the charge, slashing at the same time, only for her weapon to glance off the body armor of the Grimm. Pausing for a moment to collect herself, Weiss charged to meet the beast head on, only to have her sword jammed between its monstrous tusks. The Boarbatusk thrashed around, trying to free itself, throwing the Ice Queen around in the process.
'Come on Weiss! Show it who's boss!' Ruby cheered, and Weiss shot her a glare. The momentary distraction proved a mistake, as she relaxed her grip, allowing the beast to throw her sword out of her grasp and across the room. Stunned by the sudden loss of her weapon, Weiss was knocked to the ground by a follow up from the Boarbatusk.
'Oho, now what will you do without your weapon?' The professor asked triumphantly, moustache twitching, raising a single eyebrow. Weiss got to her hands and knees, throwing herself desperately out of the way to avoid the Boarbatusk's second charge.
Rolling to her feet, she dashed for her sword, sliding to the ground to retrieve it. Grasping the handle, she pulled herself to her feet to face the Grimm, who stood across her, pawing at the ground.
'Weiss! Go for the belly! There's no armor underneath-!' Ruby tried to contribute again, before Weiss cut her off, whirling on her in annoyance.
'Stop telling me what to do!' She yelled, her cerulean eyes sparkling with anger. Ruby's face fell again, a look of hurt and confusion plastered across it.
The Boarbatusk charged Weiss again, rolling across the floor at a tremendous speed. Activating her glyphs, Weiss shielded herself from the attack, the Grimm bouncing off the glyph like it had hit a wall. Backflipping into the air, the young huntress-to-be launched herself off a glyph positioned behind her, shooting towards the boar.
The Grimm, still struggling to get off its back and into its feet, had no chance to avoid the attack, and Weiss plunged Myrtenaster into its exposed underbelly. The beast squealed, its legs wriggling in pain, before it fell silent, barely a moment later. Weiss dropped to her knees next to it, hand still on the sword plunged in its belly, catching her breath.
'Bravo! Braa-vo! It appears we are indeed in the presence of a true huntress in training.' Professor Port swung his fist, satisfied. Weiss stood there, panting, holding her sword in front of her, as if unsure as to whether the dissolving creature was dead. She straightened up quickly, sheathing her sword haughtily.
'I'm afraid that's all the time we have for today. Be sure to cover the assigned readings, and, stay vigilant.' The professor cautioned, stressing the last two words with a hand in the air.
'Class dismissed!' On those words, Jaye shot awake with a snort, head jerking off his hand, and looked around blearily. He noticed the heiress standing in the middle of the theatre, and cocked his head in confusion.
'When the heck did Weiss change clothes?' He asked, turning to Yang, who stared at him in disbelief.
'What? You didn't notice her leaving to change into battle gear?' Yang asked incredulously, and Jaye shrugged. The blonde stared at him, noting his slightly dazed expression and slack jaw.
'Wait, were you sleeping the whole time?!' She questioned, and when Jaye didn't answer, punched him in the shoulder.
'Your eyes were open! The whole time!' She punched him again, and Jaye slid out of the booth to avoid her onslaught. He noticed Weiss stalk out of the classroom, Ruby hot on her heels, and wondered what in the blazes had happened.
That Night
'Ruby, I think you have what it takes to be a good leader. Just know, that I am going to be the best teammate you'll ever have.' Weiss smiled at the red-head, handing her a cup of coffee. Ruby smiled back, swirling the cup in her hands.
'Good luck studying.' Weiss wished her, dropping down from Ruby's bed. She popped her head back up.
'That's wrong by the way.' She pointed out, smiling even wider than before. Ruby grinned as the heiress left, and Weiss stopped at the door.
'Hey Ruby? I always wanted bunk beds as a kid.' Weiss called to her, pulling the door shut. She paused for a moment, smiling at the door.
'Why the change of heart?' Jaye's voice sounded from nowhere, and Weiss jumped, startled, turning to see the dark-haired boy leaning against the opposing wall.
'Where did you come from?' Weiss rubbed her arm, turning away from him. Jaye pushed himself off the wall, walking towards her, soap and towel in hand.
'The bathroom. Yang told me what happened.' He said, stopping in front of her. Weiss stared at him, defiant. She turned away haughtily.
'Now you answer my question.' He stated, casually spinning the bottle of soap in his hand.
'Just did a bit of self-reflection.' Weiss shot back, crossing her arms. Jaye raised an eyebrow, and she turned away from him. There was no way she was going to let him find out she'd been told off by Professor Port. Jaye sighed, throwing his towel over his shoulder.
'Alright Princess, if you say so.' He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, pushing past her into the room.
'This isn't like you, you know. It's creeping me out.' Weiss told him, and Jaye shut the door behind him. The heiress glared at the door for a moment, before stalking off haughtily to the bathroom.
