Yang jiggled the door unlocked, throwing it open the loudest way possible. The dorm was clean but ultimately undecorated, not that Yang would change that much, she didn't have much in the realm of worldly possessions she could drag along to school, all her stuff either too massive or too fragile.

Yang dropped her bags at the door of the bedroom, landing with a loud thud. "Hello, anyone home?" She searched the dorm, coming back to the living room with a wild smile and a shrug. "I guess we're alone here." Proudly proclaimed Yang.

Ruby laughed, "Hey, at least no one will have to deal with your mess." At this point, Ruby and Blake had firmly planted themselves on the couch while Yang did her search.

Blake looked around calmly and smiling; she looked as if she was thinking of what to say. "This is random, but even though I just met you guys, you seem pretty cool." Blake, red-faced, cleared her throat. "That is if you stay so cool." Yang had now sat on the other side of Blake 0n the couch.

Ruby and Yang smiled brightly, pulling her into a hug. "Well, if you think we're cool now, you're gonna think we're fucking amazing once you get to know us better," Yang said, but that moment didn't last long before a knock on the door startled the trio, and a fluffy orange-haired girl lugged two giant suitcases through the door. She stared at the girls, obviously not expecting there to be people in the sweet. "I… Are one of you miss Xiao Long?" The ginger asked with an Irish accent, Yang raised her hand, making a peace sign. "Why that is superb; my name is Penny." Penny stood there like she expected something to happen. "I'm going to unpack now."

Penny entered the bedroom, almost tripping over Yang's things, and the trio exchanged confused looks. "She seems nice." Said Blake. The room fell into an awkward silence; it was a long time before penny came back out wearing a completely different outfit than the one she had on before. Earlier she wore, jeans and a tan sweater, but now she wore a black undershirt, tan vest, a black and green skirt with green leggings.

She sat down on the floor in front of the TV facing the girls, facing them. "So miss Xiao Long, please tell me about yourself."

"Well, there's my sister." She pointed to Ruby." I also just met Blakioboo." Motioning to Blake, "And I have no redeeming qualities." Ruby elbowed Yang in the arm. "Okay, I have five redeeming qualities, I'm a kickboxer, and these are the four, the girls and the guns." She pushed her boobs together and flexed her arms.

"I see." Penny sat there quietly; her freckled cover faced abruptly turned a bright shade of red. "Oh, I get it now." She stood up and walked out of the room. "I'm sorry I have work to do." A blatant lie to hide her embarrassment.

Ruby elbowed her sister again. "You scared her away with your evil boobs."

"Hey, it's not my fault; she couldn't handle the girls." She said, shrugging.

"Could we get something to eat because it's like noon, and I haven't eaten yet." The sisters smiled and nodded in confirmation.

"Should we ask Penny if she wants to come?" Said Ruby, but the other two were already out the door, Ruby reluctantly followed.

The trio walked around the campus from store to store; the ground was still damp from the night before. They finally found themselves at a small Chinese restaurant; Yang pointed to the shop, "Sound good?" The other two nodded and walked in, Blake ordered sweet shrimp, Ruby got dumplings with a bunch of fortune cookies, and Yang got an extremely spicy and sour chicken.

"So Blake, what part of the program are you in?" Asked Yang between bites of her food.

"Well, my dad has always been a hard ass about grades and me being a doctor. So mainly psychology, but my main program is literature." She sipped her drink before continuing. "I'm going to guess that Ruby joined for mathematics or teaching, and for you, Yang, I'll go with something with physical education."

Yang put her around Blake. "This girl is smart; I like her." The girls spent the rest of the day exploring the campus, sharing laughs, and enjoying each other's company.

Night came around the corner like a fastball, and the ladybug colored duo said their goodbyes to Yang before head to their room. Ruby's automatic action was to plant herself on the couch. At the same time, Blake decided to check the outcome of one of her worst decisions; she had her phone off. Now on, it chimed to life like a choir; she found message after message from her boyfriend asking the same if not similar questions followed by threats.

"Hey, you okay, Blake?" She looked away from her phone, face pale as a ghost. She thought for a moment, but she decided to go against the reasonable part of her brain. So she smiled.

"Yeah… it's nothing." Ruby watched her closely, trying to read her expression.

"If you say so. Just saying, we're roommates now so you can talk to me. It's like being sisters without being related." Blake just nodded. Blake decided to go straight to bed, making up some excuse about being tired, and Ruby fell asleep later in the night on the couch while watching a movie.

When she woke up, Blake wasn't home, so Ruby decided to wander the halls to find a certain prissy white girl who had utterly destroyed her peaceful walk.

"No, excuse me, I refuse to live in this shit hole! It certainly does NOT meet the requirements I sent you people when I agreed to join this program!" The girl from yesterday flustered and red-faced, and Ms. Goodwitch still faced, standing her ground.

"I'm sorry, miss Schnee but you get the same room as everyone else and we told your father that you could possibly modify it anyway as long as you pay for the remodeling after your time here ." Pissed, the girl turned away from Ms. Goodwitch with shaking fists. She stomped past Ruby, ramming her shoulder into her, causing Ruby to stagger into the wall.

Surprised Ruby looked for Ms. Goodwitch to see if she was watching going to say something, but she'd already left. "Hey, excuse me!" Yelled Ruby. The girl turned around, still pouting like a child. "Apologize for walking into me."

"Why? You were in my way." Ruby dumbfounded just stared at her. "What, are you stupid?"

"I have never met someone so rude!" Ruby stepped closer, beginning to get in this girl's face. "I'm normally a level headed person, but you're pushing my buttons."

The girl sneered. "Good." Ruby stared into the girl's eyes and took a deep breath.

"Alright, I think we started on the wrong foot yesterday, and today, I'm Ruby." She extended her hand for the white-haired girl.

Not interested reached into her jacket pocket and pulled out a pale blue business card and handed it to Ruby. "I don't care who you are. Just take this and leave me alone." Ruby looked down at the card;

Schnee Energies

Second Daughter of Jacques Schnee; Weiss Schnee

And when she looked up, Weiss was gone. Ruby, now frustrated, made her way back to her dorm. When she turned the corner for her room, she stood at her door was a punk-looking boy, wore black pants, and a spiky leather jacket with unnaturally red hair. "Um… can I help you?" Asked Ruby.

The boy shocked spun around, hiding his hand behind his back. "Hey… yeah, do you live here?" Ruby nodded. "Okay, cool, so you know, Blake. I'm her boyfriend." Ruby remembering the tone Blake used to referring to her "Boyfriend" and reluctantly asked if she could do anything for him because she wasn't home, well as far as she knew. "Yes, could you tell her I've been trying to get in contact with her?"

Ruby nodded, "Yeah, I can do that, but she's sleeping right now." She looked around the dorm for any sign of Blake being home; she found empty energy drink cans and her phone lying face-down on the counter. Blake had fallen asleep writing with her laptop on her lap, which had long shut off.

Ruby giggled and decided to relay the message to her tomorrow...
