INTR. MOVIE THEATRE - NIGHT.

Team RWBY is seated in the movie theatre awaiting the show to commence. They managed to get the row to themselves despite the theatre being somewhat packed.

RUBY

This is so exciting! I've been waiting to see this movie forever!

BLAKE

I never pegged you for the scary movie type.

YANG

Are you kidding me, she loves the horror genre.

RUBY

Yeah! That's where you get all the best action scenes. The chase, the gore, the weapons! And he has a scythe like me!

WEISS

I'm sure that's not the comparison you want to go for.

RUBY

Of course not, besides mine is much cooler.

Yang cocks her Ember Celica.

YANG

It's also a gun.

RUBY

Yeah!

Ruby cocks the sniper rifle of Crescent Rose.

WEISS

How utterly barbaric!

BLAKE

Spoken like the Ice Queen herself.-

WEISS

Hey! You promised to stop calling me that!

WEISS' knight summon walks down the aisle. The knight then kneels before her and presents a bag of popcorn.

YANG

Did you just have your summon bring you a snack?

WEISS

Well, of course, I'm not trying to miss a minute of the show.

Weiss takes the popcorn from the knight and pats it on the head.

WEISS (CONT'D)

Thank you kindly.

The summon disappears.

RUBY

Hey! Keep it down over there the show is about to start!

WEISS

Quiet you!

BLAKE

Don't you think that's a blatant misuse of your semblance?

WEISS

You weren't saying that when you were asking me to get our drinks now were you?

FLASHBACK. INTR. MOVIE THEATRE - AFTERNOON.

Weiss' mini lancer is shown flying down the aisle carrying two drinks on its back. The mini lancer flies in front of Weiss. Weiss takes her drink.

WEISS

(Baby voice) Thank you lancey!

MINI LANCER

Buzz Buzz!

The mini lancer flies in front of Blake. Blake cautiously takes her drink off the mini lancer.

WEISS

Well?

BLAKE

Well what?

WEISS

Aren't you gonna thank lancey poo!

Blake blushes and looks away.

BLAKE

I'm not calling it that.

END FLASHBACK

INTR. MOVIE THEATRE - NIGHT.

BLAKE

Touche.

RUBY

That is it! If you guys don't wanna watch the movie fine, but I for one am trying to enjoy myself.

Yang chews her popcorn.

YANG

You know you shouldn't be yelling during the movie.

WEISS

Yeah, where are your manners?

BLAKE

Weren't you the one who wanted to come and see this anyway?

Ruby stares at Yang, Blake, and Weiss dumbfounded.

RUBY

WHAT?!

Old Man Shoopkeep taps Ruby on her left shoulder. He points to the exit doors suggesting that she leaves.

RUBY

Me! What about them?! They're the ones disturbing everyone!

MOVIEGOER 1

Hey, what gives!

MOVIEGOER 2

Shut up!

MOVIEGOER 3

I paid good money to see this premier. Keep it down!

Old Man Shopkeep drags a kicking and screaming Ruby down the aisle.

RUBY

Hey, let go of me! You're gonna regret this. It was just getting to the good part!

Ruby is dragged out of the theatre. The double doors close.

WEISS

Well, that was almost as entertaining as the movie.

BLAKE

Should we go after her?

Yang is drinking her soda and uses her fingers to count down from three. As soon as Yang puts all of her fingers down Ruby dashes in with her semblance past Weiss, Blake, and Yang. Knocking down some of Weiss and Blake's snacks in the process.

YANG

Great, you're back. You didn't miss much.

RUBY

No thanks to you.

Yang rubs Ruby's head.

YANG

Oh, come on. You know that never gets old.

BLAKE

What just happened?

WEISS

Are these rose petals edible?

Yang

I haven't died yet.

RUBY

Shh! At least don't spoil the ending!

Weiss picks up a rose petal and sniffs it looking concerned. Blake tips over and falls out of her seat. Ruby and Yang continue to eat their snacks and enjoy the movie.

THE END
