Chapter 22 The Date

"Loving someone and having them love you back is the most precious thing in the world."

-Nicholas Sparks, The Rescue-

(Time skip: three days later)

(Location: Emerald Forest near Beacon Academy Vale Remnant)

Dozens of Grimm were been sliced from every direction while others were getting shot dead center. The Beowulves didn't had a clue what they were facing since it was too fast for them realize and by the time they figure out who was their enemy, they have been killed. Ursai's were slayed as well as the small amount of Boarbatusk that regrouped to try and take down this person but it was futile, they were sliced in half. Those that were far away got shot as more of the dark creatures were charging at the mysterious being killing their kind. The sudden red blur with black took down more Grimm when it made a long jump getting in the middle of more Ursai and Beowulves. The blur was followed by many rose petals circling around like a whirlwind it was none other than the leader of team RWBY Ruby Rose.

The silver eyed girl was wearing her training uniform only this time she was wearing her red hood with her belt and bag that allows her to carry many ammo dust cartridges for her rifle and scythe Crescent Rose. Gazing at the many Grimm surrounding her she didn't showed any fear but instead a grin that reflects confidence. She changed her baby into sniper rifle mode disappearing into the red blur followed by the trail of rose petals. The shots fired hit their respective targets with quick ease she changed it back to scythe mode slicing left and right. The petite girl turned to her last opponent an Ursai the creature gave a growl and the team leader didn't needed to use her semblance to beat it. One Grimm was no threat to her so she waited for it to make it's move and the Ursai charged wanting to shred the girl with its sharp claws.

Not too far the Flash was watching over her progress watching over his scroll. He was making sure her aura levels don't go into the red zone. Low aura means she won't be able to use her semblance or use it to shield herself from enemy attacks. He smiled watching Ruby's progress throughout the months admitting she has become faster than she used to be becoming one strong and skilled huntress. It didn't change a fact that she was still in training but at her age she has already fulfilled quite the accomplishment getting into Beacon two years ahead. He rolled his seeing the petite has used her semblance to run on a tree and take a long jump shooting her rifle at the Ursai. The creature was shoot in the head she finished it off slicing its head in scythe mode.

"That's all of the Grimm in this area. Good job."

"Good job? I was amazing, stupendous, magnificent, one of a kind! I deserve more credit than just good job" the petite crossed her arms giving a slight pout.

"And I say you were showing off with that Ursai just now. It doesn't matter how good or how fast you have become, you should never underestimate the enemy. Its that kind of behavior that leads to been reckless and it could get you killed."

"I know that already I'm not been reckless, I had that Ursai taken care of. I wasn't showing off" she protested.

The scarlet speedster kept his gaze at the petite not believing a small smile spread his lips" so you really weren't showing off just now? The part where you climb that tree and jump after it seemed like it. You could have taken it out with your scythe or rifle."

"Nope I wasn't."

"Ruby be honest with me."

"Okay fine so maybe I wanted to show off a little. I only wanted you to notice that I've become faster and stronger because of you."

"You don't have to show off to make me notice your progress. I already noticed you a while back and that was before you could only go a hundred miles per hour not when you can go at three hundred. What matters when you go out there to fight whether they're Grimm, villains or the White Fang you have to look after yourself and be aware of your surroundings."

"Barry er..I mean Flash I know. My uncle told me something similar before I graduated from Signal, and so did my dad. You shouldn't worry too much I'm a huntress in training and I'm a team leader, I can take care of myself."

"Well I can't help it if I worry over you I care about you a lot…." he paused not realizing what he just said he wasn't thinking clearly, even with his mask on anyone could see he was blushing.

Apparently Ruby heard him and she smiled while her cheeks got red feeling embarrassed. Again her heart was beating faster that strange feeling was at it again by now she realized this was no ordinary feeling, no silly crush. This was something strong and pure and with time she has slowly come to terms with it understanding the meaning of it. The conclusion was that she likes Barry a lot and in the terms of more than a friend. She was certain it was in the same level as how Blake feels for Oliver that she eventually confessed to the archer vigilante which lead to the result of them forming a relationship. The hardest part of this was taking the courage to tell the speedster the truth, telling him how she feels. That was something she will never be able to do she could fight dozens of Grimm, lead her team to a big battle but revealing her feelings for the scarlet vigilante was her impossible task.

"Let's move on to another part of your training" Flash wanted to bring a new topic that isn't his feelings for the RWBY leader" have you finally learned to make your vocal chords vibrate using your semblance?"

"Does this answer your question?" the silver eyed girl was talking in an echo voice similar to when he makes his vocal chords vibrate.

"Finally got the hang of it" he smiled glad to know all that practice did her good.

"It took me a while but now I can talk all echoish. Best of all I sound cooler with making my evil laugh, MUAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH"

Flash stood shocked at how creepy her evil-like laugh sounded when it was like an echo, he smiled an idea popping into his head" you should try that on Weiss see if you can scare her."

Ruby's silver eyes lit up as the speedster seemed to have read her mind she giggled" way ahead of you."

"Okay you've come along way since we started. You have improved greatly and I couldn't be prouder at how fast you have gotten."

"Oh! Are you going to teach me phasing? I would like to know how to phase like a ghost."

"Phasing?" the scarlet speedster stood a bit shocked" Ruby that's very advance, I don't think you're ready to learn that."

"But you just said I have improved a lot don't you think I'm ready to go to the next level? I think I have earned the right to learn something more advance."

"I admit you have gotten that fast but phasing is very hard to learn and master. I only did it once and I managed to do it through a panicked situation."

"I remember when that crazy guy put that bomb on you strapped on a speed meter and it will detonate if you pass five hundred miles or if you stop running. I think it was scary and cool at the same time. But you managed to phase through a truck and the bomb couldn't so it exploded without you in it" the scythe wielder recalled when she saw through the Flash's memories from one of his fights against the villains of Central city.

Barry could never forget that day when insane criminal James Jessie aka" The Trickster" put that speed bomb on him he could have died if it wasn't for the words of the disguised Eobard Thawne as Harrison Wells telling him to harness his powers in order to be able to phase through solid materials. He succeeded phasing through a gasoline truck like the silver eyed petite said it was because of his words that he was able to finally connect the dots and figured out that the impostor Wells was the Reverse Flash, the speedster that murdered his mother. Phasing was truly one of the many abilities of been a speedster that was very usable, Ruby learning it could be a breakthrough. But he knew better than teaching her something so dangerous and if she wasn't ready the consequences could be bad, like her getting killed.

"You have been a great teacher and I couldn't have never gotten so fast without your help. So please teach me phasing."

"It's too early for that. I haven't tried it since that time and I don't think I'll be able to do it now. Back when I lived in Central I got very fast but here, I'm only half faster of what I used to be. If I can't learn it in the level I am now I don't think I'll be able to do it at all. I want the two of us to learn things together, that also includes phasing."

"And maybe someday we can both unlocked the speed force, the ability to go the speed of light and time travel…."

Ruby still pouted not liking his answer she wanted to learn phasing now. Even if his words were true and he made a valid point. Her progress in the training has been very positive getting faster than she never thought she'll be able to get to, as well as increasing her aura levels. But she still needed to learn so much more she might be able to learn phasing, but that won't is not now. Or maybe there was another reason for her to learn the ability like she wanted to show the speedster she was ready. Her cheeks reddened wanting his acknowledgment so she can be treated as his equal. Maybe that way he might like her, see her more than just a young girl maybe he will see her as a woman. That feeling was returning as she shook those thoughts and face the scarlet vigilante with a nod.

"Fine..but you better teach me phasing soon."

"I haven't let you down and I'm not starting now. Don't worry Ruby I'll teach you. Okay we're not done yet there is one more thing we can do in this training. Actually now that you have gotten faster we can start a new type of training."

"New training?! What is it?!" her silver eyes lit up so excited.

The Flash gave her a smile" you have to catch me."

"Catch you as in a race?"

"Are you up for it?"

"Ready!" the silver eyed petite was excited this will be the first time she will have a race with the speedster vigilante.

"On your mark...Get set...Go!"

Both left at the same time a red blur filled with yellow lightning and a red blur with black and rose petals filling her trail. It happened so quick that they must have given over fifty laps around the entire forest and it seemed like they were even. But the scarlet speedster was only starting he gave a quick smile at the girl trying to catch up to him before he increased his speed. Ruby gasped as she tried her very best to catch up, to reach him but the way he got faster was starting to make her doubt herself. Can she really out speed hi, the Flash? The same vigilante who has taken so many dangerous villains including the Reverse Flash, who was considered stronger and faster than him. Now here she was trying her hardest to pass him or even touch him for that matter and she was failing.

"Come on Ruby focus all that training for nothing. At least get three feet closer to him…."

But she knew in her heart she wasn't going to win, she won't reach him, she won't pass him she won't even increase her speed that will out match he's. Because she felt herself reaching her limit she was getting tired she has used her semblance for so long, her aura levels were dropping fast. Even with everything she put up in trying she was about to trip ending in a very painful accident. She realized too late she has fallen off but she never hit the ground because she was caught in the nick of time. Her silver eyes drifted to the speedster smiling at her by now she knew he was going to catch her preventing a very nasty fall. The RWBY leader has blushed losing count how many times he has carried her bridal style and every time it gets better than the last time. No words would come to her only wanting to be like this forever, trying ignore her fast beating heart.

"You see? How can you expect to learn phasing when you can't even out speed me? That's why you should focus more in becoming faster before we can move on to phasing okay?"

"I'm sorry you're right. Guess I got too excited" she smiled sheepishly.

"The important thing is you did your best. You have accomplished a lot in this training, there's no need for rushing in."

The silver eyed leader smiled as the speedster stood quiet looking in thought. He didn't know why this was getting tougher he made a decision to go through with it, he even asked Oliver for some advice and the archer told him straight. To go for it worst case scenario the scythe wielder will turn him down but apparently Oliver was pretty sure she wasn't going to refuse. There was only one thing to do to mold up the courage and tell her and get his answer before tonight. But it wasn't easy as it looks Barry was getting nervous remembering how hard it was to ask Linda out. He will never get used to it especially when Ruby was staring right back at him curious to his silence. The petite leader was waving her hand back and forth to see if she will get a reaction from the speedster.

"Right sorry about that. I had a lot on my mind" he chuckled.

"You're spacing out a lot you're starting to become like me" and she stuck her tongue at him childishly.

"Must be contagious" his comment made her laughed but he straightened himself" say Ruby, I've been wondering if you're going to be available tonight?"

"Tonight? Hm...I haven't made any plans with my team I guess I'll be available, why are you asking?"

"There's this new carnival in town…."

"Oh yeah I've heard of it. It arrived yesterday it looks very fun I would like to go" chirped the scythe petite.

"That's the reason I'm asking if you're available. Would you like to go with me tonight?"

"…..."

Ruby stood shocked thinking she heard wrong her head playing tricks on her. Did Barry just asked her out on a date?! He said he and her so it was obvious it will only be the two of them going to the carnival. The idea of been with the speedster together alone made her blushed, again the increased speed of her heart beat and that feeling getting worse. She was thinking the possibilities asking herself what to do? What now? Accepting or decline his invitation every possible choice was making her so nervous. If she declines she will regret it for the rest of her life and if she accepts she won't be able to survive because of her shy nature. It will be impossible to get the thought of going on a date with the same boy she has like for so long. Then her brain stopped working standing still rooted in the spot, in the Flash's arms.

"He's asking me out….me! He wants to go out with me…."

"Ruby….?"

"…."

"You okay?" the speedster got worried at her long silence.

"Huh? Oh yeah...I'm okay..I think" she muttered the last part.

"Look I didn't meant to make you nervous. I understand if you don't want to go, it's okay. If you want to we can invite everyone, you invite your team and I'll invite Oliver and maybe Snart and Mick will come. Even if I'm pretty sure they won't like coming to a carnival. But hey, we can make a teammate bonding day."

"But I..." she started her face flushing red" would you prefer...if it was only just..us….?"

"Yeah, I did asked for just the two of us to go. But like I said its okay if you don't want to-"

"I want to" she whispered.

"What….?"

"I said yes I would like to go with you...just us" she laughed nervously her face still red.

That was enough to bring a smile to the vigilante" okay. How about I pick you up tonight at your dorm at six?"

"Sure" she smiled overjoyed.

"Come on I'll take you back to Beacon since you can't use your semblance anymore."

(Scene change)

Oliver grinned blocking all of Blake's quick attacks even when she was using her semblance to increase her speed. He has learned to blocked those attacks with ease and by now he could read her attacks pretty much. Both were using wooden swords and it seemed like they were evenly match but it was the fact they have sparred for a while now they could balance and read any of their attacks. Still the archer vigilante saw it easy to take all those attacks without worrying and it was the same for the raven haired girl. Every now and then whenever they crossed blades their eyes will meet, there was that playful glint in them like they were having fun with these matches. That was particularly one of the reasons but mainly they will grow stronger together for future encounters with the White Fang, the Grimm and probably the Queen.

As for their relationship almost a week since they've gotten together and everything was doing great. Blake has been spending more time with him and she admitted not regretting to form a relationship with the archer. Oliver was also happy and enjoying every bit of her company as much. Needless this relationship was on a great start and they have promise each other to talk about their problems and anything that might bother them. His experience with past relationships have taught him a valuable lesson of not to make the same mistakes from before. He secretly swore to always be there for the cat faunus in good and bad times because getting together was the best thing that happened to him since he arrived to Remnant. The archer grinned blocking another quick attack as the raven haired faunus did a back flip and went behind one of the pillars of his private gym.

"You know hiding from me is pretty much useless" he reminded her of his semblance, the part where he can see right past any solid object.

"Who says I'm hiding?"

The vigilante was surprised when the faunus appeared in front of him he didn't saw her coming. She'd probably used her clones to advance her steps but she was able to pull it without him seeing her movements, he was impressed by her stunt. Blake wasn't hiding from him she was planning ahead and she succeeded it made him grinned and how clever she can be. He has noticed the slight change in her clothing instead of wearing the long black spandex she usually wear for their sparring matches, she was now wearing a short black spandex on the knee level. Now the archer had a better look at her legs and her entire body, how well were her curves. Maybe this was her plan all along to wear provocative clothing to catch him off guard and had the advantage over him. She wouldn't go too far would she? He didn't know the answer but his followed up attack was successful sending the faunus to the ground.

"You're lowering your guard too much."

Blake replied with a sweep kick that throw him back to the floor he was met by the sight of her wooden sword. The look in her amber eyes was enough to tell him she was amused by his comment as she will lowered her guard that easily. He should have known better to think that or even underestimate her she has progressed a lot in her training. She was skilled, faster and more agile since the time her accepted her proposal to train her, now he was certain she was ready to fight Adam. The vigilante didn't realized she has gotten closer to him meeting his eyes from this position he had a good view of her cleavage from her sports bra though it wasn't that much. The faunus didn't had that much for a bust but he didn't care it was enough to fuel his hormones. Honestly Oliver wasn't really into women with big breast he prefer them average it explain why many of the women from his life fitted that description.

"Am I?" she challenged him for his remark.

The archer countered with a sweep of his own sending the raven haired faunus in the air but she never hit the ground. Like the cat she was, she landed on her feet going straight with an attack. Oliver blocked and went for a charge his wooden sword was inches from her neck. Blake wasn't impressed that he got her good, because it was the same with her. The vigilante felt the point of her wooden sword from his back, an attack like that will be enough to cut his spinal cord and probably leave him paraplegic. In return for the conclusion of the match he smiled at her, the same type of smile that will make her heart melt. The faunus loved that smile of he's it will drive her heart crazy it was adorable and sexy. She was trying so hard not to give in to her hormones and jump his bones which it was something that was fueling her for reading her favorite erotic book.

"I was kidding…."

The raven haired faunus was about to smile before she was pulled by the vigilante and got a fierce kiss which she gladly accepted. It was so passionate that got a reaction from the amber eyed girl she straddled on his lap wrapping her arms around his back. Oliver did the same his hands caressing her back not caring if her body was covered in sweat, it was the same with Blake. The more sweat his body had the better she will enjoyed the experience remembering something similar she read from Ninjas of Love. When Kureha saw Izamu bathing in the waterfall that eventually she fell victim to her lust and made love to him. She was so close to go further and make the archer hers the temptation was so strong. But nothing happened the vigilante broke the kiss getting up and offering a hand to the faunus member of team RWBY.

"I should probably warn you when that happens again."

"I don't mind there's no need for the warning" she smiled he can surprise her like that for as much as he likes.

"So I've been investigating Black Fist and their recent activities lately" Oliver decided to bring a new topic" I found out there has been activity throughout the northwest forest of Vale, apparently Grimm numbers have been decreasing dramatically. Now that would be good news for any huntsman but this is a complete different matter. They've been capturing the Grimm from that area and now I've been trying to locate where they're sending them."

"I still think it's crazy" the cat faunus gave a sigh" this is the same group that will capture, torture and even kill any faunus and now they're doing the work of a huntsman."

"Only difference they're doing it because somebody is paying them for the job. Usually huntsman and huntresses get pay in any kind of mission that involves Grimm. However we don't know the intentions of whoever is paying Black Fist to bring him Grimm. If he's killing them for fun, or keeping them as living trophies. That's all I've gathered I still don't know if this can be seen as a threat, or is it worth looking into."

"I think it's worth investigating whatever reason this person has, its probably not good. He could be...I don't know..experimenting on them."

"Grimm experimentation?" the archer stood in thought Blake was probably onto something.

"It's all I can think of. The truth he's using Black Fist to do the work for him can be consider a threat. They are an anti faunus group."

"Maybe this Grimm experimentation has something to do with harming faunus…."

"If that's true then this client could be a supporter of Black Fist. That will explain why he's willing to pay them for that kind of work."

"That's all we can do, make up speculation after speculation. Nothing accurate that will give us a lead."

"I think you've done enough for now. You should take a break."

"That's what Barry always say I work too hard I should take a break every now and then. It bothers me he's right...sometimes" he smiled while she smiled too.

"You always find the truth no matter how long it takes. Hang in there you know I'm always willing to help you if you need it. The same goes for my teammates and even team JNPR."

"And I appreciate your assistance and everyone else's. But maybe this investigation isn't that important at the moment. The Vital tournament is a week away and I still haven't gotten anywhere with the identity of the Queen. I know she's planning something and it involves the tournament I don't know in what way but whatever she's planning she will make her move during the competition."

"We'll just have to wait for the tournament to see what unfolds everyone is looking forward to it especially Ruby and everyone else. We're competing."

"My team will also be competing I still don't know if there's any team work going on there. It's gotten complicated ever since Snart and Mick have developed their semblance. As usual Ozpin thinks that this is a good turn into their rehabilitation as he calls it, he's too positive for his own good."

"Maybe you should be more positive. I've seen Mick has been acting different since he's been participating in Yang's "program" that's what she calls it anyway. She says he's been very cooperative and more kind to others. Weiss has also mentioned Snart has been showing good signs in her program. I think they should be given a chance to be trusted."

"I don't know what to think. On one part I feel like they deserve a chance on another, they shouldn't be trusted. I'm not the only one Barry feels the same way we talked about it a few days back."

"Take your time at least you can think about it until the tournament begins."

The archer kept his smile taking her hand making his faunus girlfriend to sit with him in their usual spot from the training room. It was the same corner they always seated, the same one where she first tell him about Adam and her problems with Weiss because of her views with the faunus and the White Fang. Every time they get seated in this corner they will enjoy each others company even more. There were no comments from Blake always happy to be with him after some training his presence will make her comfortable, safe, enjoyable and good. He kept the hold on her hand and she replied giving it a gentle squeeze pleased of the hold. Their eyes met before he reached with his free hand pulling some bangs of her hair back to get a clear view of her beautiful face he will never get tired of staring at it.

"On another topic. I have a surprise for you its actually something I've been wanting to give you since we got together. To me a relationship can't be a relationship without a first date so…."

"Yes….?" she was smiling her heart beat increasing getting so anxious knowing what he had in mind.

"I prepared for us two dinner reservations for tonight at the Glittering Pearl."

"The Glittering Pearl?" the raven haired faunus thought was shocked thinking she heard wrong.

"You sound surprised. Why would that be?" he smiled.

"Not much only that the Glittering Pearl is the most expensive restaurant in all of Vale. It's the only restaurant where rich people will go, there are no exceptions. If Weiss's family decides to go to a restaurant it will be that one nowhere else" of course Blake didn't included the possibilities of other expensive restaurants outside of Vale like the ones in Atlas the Schnee's family home town.

"It's true the Glittering Pearl has its reputation for been extremely painful for anyone's wallet. But I doubt the people that go there cares at all, still I did booked us reservations for us there."

"Can I ask how you managed to buy us reservations?" the faunus was smiling.

"Why are you asking?" he smiled back" you sound like you find it hard to believe."

"I doubt been a teacher assistant offers the best salary enough to buy us a table at Vale's most expensive restaurant" she kept her smile.

"You're right I'm not ashamed to admit it. It's actually a very interesting story" the archer paused wrapping his arm around her as she gladly accept it leaning her head to his shoulder.

"It was just another night in the restaurant. Lots of chatter, many wonderful dishes, lots of champagne. Then this well armed group of robbers demanding to get all the lien of the restaurants along with every expensive jewelry the guests were wearing. Just when things were going to go their way the Arrow arrived."

The raven haired girl rolled her eyes having an idea what happened to get reservations at the restaurant.

"So he beat the robbers tied them up and as the police arrived to apprehend them, the owner of the restaurant was so grateful for his help. He said" if there's anyway I can ever repay you?" and the Arrow replied" there might be something you can do for me good sir. Can you reserve a table for two for tomorrow night for my friend Oliver Queen and his girlfriend?"."

Blake laughed like she never had before using his title as vigilante and aid for the innocent to earn at table at an expensive restaurant.

"Now we have reservations for tonight for free."

"Free? Are you telling me everything is free?" the faunus stood shocked.

"The table, the food, the champagne everything free of charge. Did I forget to mention the location of our table is in the VIP of the second floor? It has the best view of the city."

The amber eyed girl stood in awe no words will come out. Everything he has done was amazing he didn't just saved the people from the restaurant, he got reservations in the restaurant as a thank you from the owner and it was in the best location with the perfect view of the kingdom of Vale and best of all it was all on the house. It was a clever thing to do and he mainly did it just so they can have their first date. Honestly she hasn't said anything since they got together and she didn't had a clue how to send such event because it was her first time in an actual relationship. But she was glad he wanted for them to have a fist date showing that he was serious about this he has shown how much he cares for her. At this moment she will never regret deciding to be his girlfriend, she couldn't be any happier.

"Still" Oliver resumed" I haven't gotten your answer if you want to go with me, so what do you say Blake? Wanna go out with me tonight?"

The cat faunus gave her replied pulling him closer and giving him a soft kiss on his lips. It only lasted for a few seconds but it was enough for the archer vigilante to be at a loss for words. As she broke the delicate kiss she was smiling, and it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen from her. It was the smile of true happiness something to never expect from someone who has been through a lot of her hardships during her childhood. Ever since they made it official Oliver was determined to make her happy, and kept that smile on her face. She will no longer suffer any grief, any kind of pain only joy and love.

"Pick me up at my dorm at seven, I'll be ready."

"I'll be there at seven sharp" he smiled it was impossible to contain his joy.

Then suddenly the archer heard a soft purr. His eyes snapped turning to the amber eyed girl who was blushing from the embarrassment. The sound was similar to a cat purring whenever it was been cuddle and although it was softer than the usual feline purr it was clear, that it was coming from the faunus member of RWBY. Oliver raised an eyebrow looking amused at the girl whose cheeks were still red the same expression a kid will give when his mother has caught him doing something wrong. If her expression could get any cuter he will have to put her in the same level as Ruby in the cutest expression contest.

"Blake….?"

"I…."

"Is that you?"

"Yes…." she gave a sigh" I used to control it a lot but now, its impossible."

"A special trait for being a cat faunus?"

She gave a nod sighing again" back then it was so easy and mostly I didn't had to because I rarely lack it. It never happened…."

"Happiness….?"

"With how close I've grown with my teammates, the friends I've made in Beacon, now you and me together I can't control it. It's been happening lately because I'm...happy more than the times when I was with the White Fang under Hector's reign and been with my adoptive parents. This is an all new joy I'm experiencing and I don't want it to stop."

"And it will never stop" he smiled pulling her closer.

"Do you think...I'm weird?" she blushed aware of her purring.

"Never. I have never seen you as a weird person Blake and I'm not starting now. I have a one of a kind girlfriend but it's better this way. If you purr I can tell when you're happy or very happy."

She chuckled at his humor but he was right they shared another kiss and her purring got a little louder. Both were thinking the same thing, looking forward to their first date tonight.

(Scene change)

Jaune and Pyrrha were having one of their sparring matches in their usual place on the roof of the school. Both have been training hard preparing for the tournament which it was an event many huntsmen in training have been looking forward to. The event where the school from the four kingdoms compete against each other to declare which one was the best. Which are to be classified best of the best and so far the match between the JNPR leader and his partner was intense. But Jaune has decided to wear something different to prepare himself against the red head champion. He has changed his sword Crocea Mors and was using a wooden sword, the same style he uses on his sparring matches with Oliver. His shield was also wooden and his chest plate was plastic he wasn't equip with anything that was made of metal.

The blond knight figured out if he wanted to have an advantage against his partner he needed to wear non metal things. That included his armor and his weapons, it was the reason why he was fighting her with wooden weapons and a plastic chest plate. Now using this type of equipment on a Grimm will be suicide but against someone with a semblance of magnetism it was exactly what he needed. So far he was doing well holding his own with every attack the red head was giving him. It looked like they were both on equal ground neither were letting their guard down, or letting themselves open for an attack. Pyrrha has grinned impressed at his partner's performance he was really thinking and calculating every single he was making. It seemed like she has met her match, maybe there was a chance he could beat her.

Pyrrha has been trying not to smile because she was focused in blocking her partner's attacks. She was impressed at how far the knight has gotten after all this time and she still find it hard to believe it's been almost a year since they started at Beacon. Jaune has become stronger, faster, wiser and his performance as team leader has also improved. But she wasn't given herself all the credit because Oliver had a hand in this too, both has prepared the blond to become a true huntsman. She blocked a quick attack and used her semblance throwing her shield hitting him square in his face. But as he was about to get up he was faced by the red head's sword Milo as she quickly accepted Akouo back. Looks like the match has been decided it was another win by the former champion of Mistral.

"Well done Jaune. You almost got me in this match."

"You said the same thing in our last match" he accepted her help.

"True but you have improved greatly. It was clever to use non metal weapons and equipment but you forgot one small detail" she smiled pointing to her weapons" my semblance work on my weapons too."

"Oh right I did, maybe this is as close as I'll ever get to defeat the mighty Pyrrha Nikos."

"You'll be surprise of all the opponents I've ever faced. Perhaps you're closest to almost beat me."

"Get out you're trying to embarrass me" he blushed it was working.

"I mean it Jaune. With time you will become stronger than me or anyone from our team, I guess it's meant to be. Your family is a lineage of brave strong warriors who became heroes, you're not any different. It only took a little longer for you to reach that step."

"I'm no hero Pyrrha just someone trying to become better so I can protect my friends."

"That usually is how heroes are born. They get strong to make something better of themselves, then protect their comrades, then everyone and then the rest of the world. Hero is in your blood I won't doubt that."

"Okay…." the blond was blushing from the compliment.

"I think that's enough for today. We should head back."

"Pyrrha wait" Jaune took a breath as he took something from his pants pockets.

"Yes….?" she gazed at him with a smile.

"I have these tickets to see the new Spruce Willis movie tonight...well I originally bought them so I could ask Weiss out…."

That was enough for the red head's happy mood to change. Hearing the rest of the sentence and the name of the Schnee heiress made her cringe with that feeling known as jealousy. It has never surprised her she knew, all of Beacon probably knew his crush for the white haired girl of team RWBY. It upset her that to this day he hasn't learn his lesson he hasn't taken the hint yet. The heiress will never like him or be interested in him that way. It made her jealous how she wanted him to notice her more than just a friend and a teammate. Was he like the rest of the boys she have met? They all thought she was too good for them that they decided not to get near her. It was the prize to pay for been so famous now it seems Jaune was starting to feel that way. Before she could feel her heart breaking she heard the blond clearing his throat like he was correcting himself.

"What I meant is. It's true I bought them to ask Weiss out, but that was the first time I bought them. Now I bought them again and I have no intention of asking her again I finally realize it's better if I remain as her friend. I got enough hints that she's isn't the one…."

"Really?" she was shocked her bright green eyes widened.

"Maybe it's better this way but I'm not desperate to find that special someone. Right now I want to focus on my training and trying hard to graduate Beacon and maybe, I can finally get some real transcripts" he smiled and she did the same.

"But today there is someone I would like to ask to go with me tonight to watch this movie. There's only one person I could think of and that's you Pyrrha. What do you say tonight at seven at the movie theater in downtown Vale?"

"You want me to go with you to the movies?" the red head was shocked.

"Yeah if it's okay with you. I understand if you don't want to I can return the tickets and get my money back-"

"I would be honored" she smiled her cheeks the same color as her hair.

"You want to go? Really….? You're not pulling my leg right?"

"No Jaune I would like to go with you to the movies. I see nothing wrong with it."

"Wow...I never thought you would say yes. I was ready to return the tickets" he gave his usual goofy smile, the same smile she loves to see so much.

"What time is the movie?"

"It starts at seven. But we should get there early to buy popcorn and get the best seats" he was smiling widely getting excited for tonight.

"Then I will be looking forward for tonight" she was overjoyed at least he wasn't thinking about Weiss.

"This might not be a date but at least I get to spend some alone time with him" she was happy even if they were going as friends it was a good start.

(Scene change)

Ruby was slowly walking the hallways of the team dorms making sure there was no one around. After some training with Barry and making jokes with him she decided to return to her dorm to take a bath and change to her usual attire. Now it wasn't like her to act so cautious it was like she was a ninja in stealth trying to infiltrate a heavily guarded fortress. Maybe it had to do with the speedster asking her out to the carnival tonight of course she was pretty nervous but so excited too. She was very worried a certain blond older sister finds out and will start bombarding her with so many questions. Questions the silver eyed petite will like to avoid at all cost now getting to her dorm without her teammates spotting her will be the impossible task. She knew they were there and hope Yang wasn't present, really hoping the blond brawler was with Mick helping with the rehab program.

"Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?"

"Hey sis!"

"Ah!" Ruby fell on the ground from the startled and speak of the devil her sister was behind with a smile on her face.

Somehow the red cloak petite could tell that smile of hers was a disguised from keeping her mischievous grin from appearing. You know something was up when the blond brawler will give her trademark grin. Her bad feeling has grown worse its like intuition was screaming at her" you're in trouble you won't get out of this alive". Her older sister was going to kill her from the embarrassment she knew it because she knows her better than anyone. The big challenge was coming up with a good lie to convince her but it all depends if Yang notices something strange like her behavior that's why acting cool and normal was her only choice. The silver eyed leader gave a smile getting up thinking what to tell her, yet that disguised smile from the blond wasn't going anywhere.

"Done with the training for today?"

"You bet I did great I showed Barry I learned to spin my arms very fast creating tornadoes and I also learned to do the echoi voice" she finished using the echo voice.

"Whoa...you sound strange when you do that."

"I'm going to the dorm to get a nice shower and change my clothes."

"Hold it sis" the brawler grabbed the petite from proceeding.

"What….?" she tried not to get nervous.

"Hm...you're hiding something."

"I'm not hiding anything see?" she showed her hands.

"Not like that. You're keeping something from me..what happened?" now Yang has revealed her grin.

"What are you talking about?"

"Please Ruby are we really doing this? You know you can't keep anything from me I will always find out one way or the other, so spill it? What happened during your training with Barry?"

"How do you even know that something happened?!" she blushed.

"Big sister intuition and also you just gave me the hint" she kept her grin another victory for Yang Xiao Long.

The RWBY leader had her mouth wide open for a moment" I hate when you do that it's not fair! I can't keep anything from you for like ten minutes it's so frustrating" she gave her cute pout.

"Come on sis spill it. I can't keep this up all day something did happened during training, right?"

"I...I guess Barry wanted me to try and catch him as part of the training and I failed big time. He's still too fast for me" the scythe wielder gave a sigh.

"Get to the good part already" Yang was so eager like she was watching a movie the only thing missing was the popcorn.

"Then I was about to collapse from using too much of my aura before he caught me in his arms and I don't see a problem with that because I like it when he does that-"

"He caught you in his arms?!" her lilac eyes were shining" that is so romantic!"

"Anyway he told me about the carnival downtown…." she paused still blushing remembering when the speedster asked her out.

"I heard about it, it looks like lots of fun."

"Thenheaskedmetogowithhimtonight-"

"Calm down Ruby I didn't understood a word you just said. Speak slowly, what about the carnival?"

"He…."

"You can tell me sis" Yang smiled so eager to know it was hard to contain it.

"He...asked me to go with him to the carnival tonight…."

"He asked you out?!" her smiled widened.

At that moment the blond was now dragging her little sister back to their dorm. Weiss was writing something in her notebook while Blake was in her usual spot reading a book title" The Odyssey" it was recommended by Oliver she seemed to very into it. Ruby was really nervous now she was afraid this was going to happen her sister telling her teammates making a big fuzz about it. She didn't saw it as a big deal sure the boy she has like for a while has finally asked her out but there was no need to make something big out of it. But apparently Yang didn't saw it that way, this was a day to celebrate and what better way to do it by telling your teammates? The blond brawler took a glance at her sister, grinning she was blushing this was something that couldn't be ignored. There was no way she was throwing away this opportunity.

"Guys! You're not going to believe this!" she shouted getting the attention from the rest of the team.

"Yang don't!" followed the silver eyed leader.

"You know about the carnival that's new in town? Well guess who asked who to go with him there tonight?"

When they didn't answered the blond pulled the scythe wielder before them" Barry asked Ruby out!"

"Congratulations" Blake gave a smiled at the petite.

"Well it's about time" followed the Schnee heiress" I was starting to wonder when he was going to have the guts to asked you out."

"Hey guys!" now the brawler was calling out to their next door neighbors" Barry asked Ruby out!"

"Are they finally together together?!" came Nora's voice.

"It's happening sooner than we think!" followed the blond.

"Yang!" the flushed Ruby has closed the dorm's door" you're not supposed to be telling the whole school about this!"

"On the contrary sis I think all of Beacon should know my little sister is finally going on her first date. This is a very important day for you and I want everyone to know all about it. Remnant must know Ruby Rose is the luckiest girl ever."

"Remnant?!" the petite leader's face has gone to a new shade of red.

"Don't listen to her Ruby she's just happy you're finally going on a date" said Weiss.

"Way happier than the rest of us" followed the cat faunus.

"But you don't have to make a big deal out of it. I know you're happy for me but I just want it to be a regular normal day not something special."

"But it can't be a normal day Ruby it's your first date! And it's happening with a boy that you really like so its really something special. Most girls will go out with a boy they hardly know and that's the point of a date, to get to know him better. In your case is special because you already know Barry enough. This date is also a big opportunity for you to finally tell him how you feel."

"You really thought that ahead" said the heiress.

"Tell him!" the petite leader was blushing again at the thought of telling the speedster the truth of her feelings.

"It doesn't have to be at the start of the date. The appropriate time to tell him should be at the end before he send you back home" said the brawler.

"Let's leave that aside for now and focus on what's more important" said the white haired girl while Yang wanted to argue that confessing what's the most important part of her sister's date" Ruby please tell me you have something decent to wear for the date."

"Um...heh heh I think I have something. I did thought of going with my usual clothes."

"No just no, that will not do. You can't possibly think of going with your black and red blend to a special day like this one. You're hopeless on your own that's why I volunteer to help you wear the right clothes."

"Hold it Weiss why does it have to be you? She's my sister so I should be the one to help her with the wardrobe" pointed the lilac eyed blond.

"Not wanting to offend you or anything but your taste in clothing isn't exactly something I would call...appropriate."

"What do you mean by that?" her eyes turned red.

"Your clothing is a bit tight and how do I put it...revealing" the heiress chose carefully her words.

"There's nothing wrong with my choice of clothing."

"Your usual clothing is revealing."

"Bull crap what I'm wearing is okay I'm more worried about your clothing."

"And what is wrong with my clothing?!" Weiss have gotten upset at the blonds comment.

"Um guys….?" Ruby tried to break them apart but she was failing.

"Do I have to say it? That skirt is too short."

"It's a combat skirt! And it's not short it's length is below the knees."

"That's not how it looks to me and I think Snart agrees because he had a better look at it from underneath" Yang grinned.

"What?" the silver eyed leader was shocked along with Blake.

"You promised me you wouldn't say a word about that!" the heiress was blushing remembering when the rogue leader looked on her skirt back at the mall when they fought.

"After making a comment of my taste of clothing I decided to let it slip."

"You're so mean!"

"Coming from the ice queen that's a compliment."

"Would you guys knock it off!" Ruby got between the two arguing girls" why don't you guys give me tips for what to wear for my date with Barry, both of you?"

Honestly she didn't like it just as she said. She didn't wanted to make a big deal of it but apparently it was for her sister and her partner. But if having both of them helping her find the right set of clothes will get them off her back then she will let them do whatever they want.

"Actually" Blake cut in before they could reply" I could use some help with picking the right clothes. I have a date with Oliver tonight."

"You have a first date too this is awesome. Where you going?" Yang couldn't get any happier.

The raven haired faunus wanted to stay quiet but that will be futile her partner will keep bugging her until she spill the beans" he's taking me to the Glittering Pearl."

"That is truly thoughtful of him, Oliver has good taste where to take a girl" Weiss smiled in approval of course she will know about the restaurant.

"Wait wait I thought I heard you wrong Blake" Yang looked shocked" did you just said he's taking you to the Glittering Pearl?"

"Yes…."

"The Glittering Pearl? The same most expensive restaurant in Vale? That Glittering Pearl?"

"There's only one last I checked so yes."

"How can Oliver afford that place? That restaurant is only for wealthy people like Weiss."

"He has his ways" the faunus gave a smile remembering how the archer got the reservations.

"I'm sure you're going to enjoy your evening with Oliver. Thought I haven't visited the restaurant yet my father did once and he was pleased with the place and its service" said the heiress.

"Okay so we have two dates and both need some clothes shopping" Yang stood in thought" Weiss I think it will be better if you buy something for Ruby, I'll go with Blake."

"Acceptable, Ruby I'm going to prepare for your first date. I'll help you get the most suited wardrobe you'll need for tonight."

"Fine but no heels" the silver eyed leader frowned remembering how much she hated walking on heels since the dance.

"Of course not you're going to a carnival not some fancy restaurant" the heiress rolled her eyes.

"To the mall!" said the blond brawler.

"To the mall!" followed the white haired girl.

"Arf!" Zwei stood in his corner wagging his tail like he was agreeing with the team.

(Scene change)

Ozpin stood gazing at the window from his office his eyes on the city of Vale. He kept a hold on his mug while there seemed to be some paperwork to do on his desk, his job as headmaster was the last thing on his mind. One week that's all that was left for the Vital tournament to begin and by now the preparation were almost complete security was among the many issues. Ironwood has taken the responsibility to make sure nothing goes wrong inside and outside of the city. The General has sent scouts all over Vale including its borders where Grimm activity was heavy. His biggest concern all the information given to him Qrow and Oliver no doubt the Queen was going to make her move during the tournament, that was pretty clear. The only thing he didn't know when she was going to strike and how? The Grimm were to play in her plan but that was all he knew and the length of information he has gotten.

The headmaster took a sip from his coffee trying to savor it's hot rich taste and it wasn't easy with his deep thought. The last thing he wanted was for his students to get involve in something that could turn into a full scale war. It was better to prevent any violence that letting the next generation of huntsmen and huntresses take that responsibility so soon. The sound of his door opened didn't broke his thoughts knowing well it was Goodwitch since he has called her to his office. The blond teacher was probably in the middle of some work because she was Glynda she never takes a break from school work. To her breaks were a waste of time that was her strict life style. Taking another sip he felt the woman behind him and able to see her from the reflection of his window.

"I thought you were kidding when you contacted me. Are you sure you want to do this?"

"I've never been so certain in my life Glynda. They have proven to be trustworthy it's time they know the truth."

"I think it's still too soon to make any decisions of the matter. No student aside the teachers knows about this."

"But we both know they're not students but rather heroes. They have been through a lot of hardships before arriving to this world and they gave their lives for their cause. They're ready to know with what's in store in the days ahead we're going to need their help. This is also an important piece of history from Remnant as travelers from another world they must learn it."

"Very well I won't disagree with your decision. But I do hope you know what you're doing."

"Please contact James and Qrow. Tell them to come as soon as they have some time off from their duties."

"I know James is always busy it will be hard to reach him. Qrow on the other hand, he's probably at that bar getting drunk as usual" the blond huntress gave a sigh.

"That will be all right if they take their time coming. I heard from Mr. Queen and Mr. Allen will be leaving tonight to spend some quality time with some of the students" a smile spread over Ozpin's lips taking a sip from his mug.

"Then there's no hurry to relay the information?"

"None whatsoever I can wait" he watched Goodwitch gave a nod before leaving the office.

"After all...The Queen is the most patient of them all. She has already made all the preparations necessary to make her sinister plan in motion. All we can do now is wait for the storm to arrive, can we survive it?"

(Scene change)

(Location: Vale shopping mall downtown)

As soon as team RWBy arrived they have immediately split up taking different directions within the shopping district. Weiss took Ruby to a different store and Yang did the same with Blake. They were determined to get a new clothes for their partners because they were about to have their first date with the boys they like tonight. Of course both girls wanted them to look their best for something as important like a date. While Ruby was still protesting that it was still a big deal and they shouldn't blow it over proportions, Blake was pretty comfortable she was calm. The blond brawler gave the Schnee heiress a thumbs up before leaving with the cat faunus doing the right thing in handling her sister's wardrobe for her big night. The heiress took the silver eyed girl further to the one department store she could trust that has the clothes fitted the leader's date.

Ruby sighed not looking like a happy camper. You think any girl will be thrilled to go to the mall and buy clothes well apparently she wasn't that kind of girl. Here she was being dragged by Weiss to one of the department stores she has come to buy clothes before. According to her they had a branch in Atlas where she went and bought some heels and dresses. Now the Schnee heiress was determined to find the right appropriate clothes for her partner while red cloak girl was dying of boredom. They just got here she already wanted to leave and the white haired girl looked like she could be happy for both of them. The team leader had no idea why girl would get so happy to come a department store it was a big mystery to her. She was bored she wanted to go somewhere else more fun.

"How long is this going to take?"

"Until we find the right clothes" was her only reply checking through the many types of dresses.

"I don't want a dress. I don't want to stand out from the crowd or anything."

"I'll be the judge of that. There's quite a variety of different wardrobes here. This is exactly why I love coming here I just know we'll find what you're looking for."

The silver eyed petite gave another sigh they weren't leaving for a while that was certain.

"Ruby why don't you make yourself useful and instead of dying of boredom you help me in the search? The clothes are for you after all."

"You're acting like you were shopping for yourself" she muttered.

"What was that?" warned the heiress.

"Nothing" she quickly replied.

"Look at it on a bright side. The sooner we're done here the sooner we can leave."

"Okay I'll help I just...I don't want to bring too much attention. I still think this is no big deal and you're...blowing things out of proportion. Don't get me wrong Weiss I'm very happy you're willing to help me find a dress and I appreciate it but...I guess I want to be myself not someone else."

"Not a big deal? It's not a big deal?" the heiress looked back at her shocked" Ruby it's your first date! You must absolutely look your best! First impression is what matters the most and I'm making sure that goes when Barry sees you. If you want everything to go well on your date you will let me pick the right clothes for you."

"All right but how about I find the clothes I want and you can give me your opinion if you like it or not?"

"That's the idea now hurry up and while you're at it" the white haired girl smiled spotting some blouses and skirts that will look great on her partner" try these on."

"I just said..never mind I'll try them on" the scythe wielder gave a sigh taking the clothes walking to the fitting rooms.

"I must admit they never cease to impress me. They always offer the best in women fashion" Weiss gave a smile liking the many varieties of clothes.

"I agreed to that statement."

The heiress smiled spotting Coco Adel leader of team CFVY she remembered the second year leader likes coming here because it was among her favorite stores. She noticed she had a bag of the store looks like she has already done a purchase.

"Sup" saluted the beret and shades girl.

"I'm not surprise to see you here Coco. This department store is among the best for its high quality clothing.

"True it's the best when it comes to fashion but its painful for the wallet."

Weiss had to agreed to that she was aware the pricing for many of their sets were considered" expensive". Even if she had the money to afford it she didn't know about the CFVY leader because she was sure she didn't come from a wealthy family like her.

"I see you already bought something."

"You bet I will never miss out a chance to buy the latest in fashion. You're buying something too?"

"Yes I am but not for me. I'm here to buy something to a friend she-"

"Weiss! I need help!" came the shout from the silver eyed petite.

"That will be my partner and team leader. She has a date tonight and she desperately needs some advice in fashion, if you excuse me" the heiress gave a sarcastic smile before heading to the fitting rooms.

"Ruby what in Monty's name happened?!"

"It's this stupid dress you gave me! I was having trouble putting it on and now its zipper is stuck on my bra!"

"What kind of lousy amateur would make such a mistake?!"

"I don't like these types of dress no zipper please. Why can't we get something more basic?"

"You mean all black and Gothic?"

"What's wrong with Gothic?"

"You're going to a carnival not some rock concert."

"There's nothing wrong with looking rockish. Besides, Barry told me I look good in my regular outfit."

"Do you really want to catch his attention tonight or not?"

"Of course I want to."

"Then quit acting like a child and get your act together."

"Okay fine just get this dress off of me!"

"Hold still! What the-for dust sakes Ruby what did you do to make this zipper get stuck in your bra?"

"Nothing it suddenly got stuck get it off!"

"Argh! Look what you made me do?!"

"I didn't do anything you're the one that broke it!"

"The dress is ruined because of you! Now I have to pay for it. What a waste for such a great piece of clothing."

"Can we get something else? Something that doesn't have a zipper please."

"I will say it again Ruby Rose you are hopeless!"

"I'm not hopeless I'm just simple."

"Simple minded yes that's something I can agreed to."

They didn't realized that Coco was still present and she has listened to the entire conversation. She chuckled amused while she felt sorry for what happened to the dress good clothes should never be ruin or destroy.

"Talk about a fashion disaster."

---

Blake unlike Ruby she was anxious. Not that she was an expert on the topic but as her first date it was supposed to be special. Something great, wonderful, amazing, a unique experience. At the same time she was nervous she never thought she will ever have a relationship, let alone go out on a date. Of course when she was with Yang it was hard to feel nervous the blond brawler was being way cheery than her usual self. They went to a department store where the clothing was really pretty and show some sex appeal. Her taste in fashion was acceptable it was still a question of what exactly the cat faunus was looking for. Because it was her first date her choice of clothing should be unique something that will make Oliver give her a good compliment. Or something that will make him blushed among other things.

"I really have to get rid of these thoughts. It's only a date nothing else…."

"What do you think of this one?" Yang smiled staring at a nice red and white evening dress.

"…..."

"Blake?" she turned to the faunus who looked spaced out" hellooooo anybody home?"

"Hm...oh right, what is it?"

"You're supposed to be happy we're here and instead you're thinking of Oliver naked."

The amber eyed girl blushed deep staring at the grinning blond" it's nothing like that. Why do you always think in those things?"

"Why do you always think it's not?"

"Because I'm not like that. I don't always think about that when it comes to me and Oliver" her conscious actually laughed calling it the biggest BS she has ever said.

"Okay I believe you now let's concentrate in finding a nice dress so you can knock him dead. What kind of dress are you looking for?"

"I don't know I thought you volunteered to give me any suggestions...useful suggestions."

"What do you mean useful suggestions? I always give you useful suggestion."

"Not quite" the faunus muttered.

"How about this one?" the blond brawler saw a new dress that caught her attention.

Blake took a glance at the dress. It was black with the skirt below the knees. It was more elegant than the dress she used at the Beacon dance it was beautiful and she could imagine herself wearing it. But most importantly she was looking forward to see Oliver's reaction to it, will he like it? Will he hate it? Will he blush at the sight? A smile spread over her lips looks like she has found the dress she'll be wearing tonight. Yang seemed to have read her mind just by looking at her she gave a nod of approval before taking it and hand it to her partner so she can try it on in the fitting rooms. Minutes later the faunus member of RWBY emerged from the fitting rooms wearing the dress she has picked. The blond brawler was impressed she looked even better than she thought and she knew a certain archer vigilante will flip when he sees her.

"You really know how to pick them Blake. Oliver will be having a nose bleed when he takes a look at you."

"Not expecting that kind of reaction of him, he's not like that. But I do hope he likes it."

"He's going to love it I'm sure of it. You have the dress now let's check the lingerie area."

"Lingerie? I don't need underwear."

"Blake you need to wear something provocative underneath your dress in order to create" the mood"."

"Excuse me? You're not thinking what I'm thinking" the faunus was blushing slightly.

"Anything can happen in the first date" anything". I'm sure you'll want to jump his bones before the end of the night."

"I'm not that desperate! I mean I want to...but it doesn't have to be so soon. We've been together for almost a week." she blushed mentioning she was willing to go that far with the archer.

"Okay I get it and I understand you want to take it slow with him. That's how it should be but, just in case you want to take it beyond the safety zone or maybe Oliver decides that then it will be for the best to come prepare. You know what I mean?"

The raven haired girl kept her blush as the blond put her arm around her" just imagine yourself wearing a sexy piece of of lingerie in a room and there stood Oliver looking at you with lust in his eyes."

Her blush got worse imagining it especially after reading ninjas of love and imagining herself to be the female protagonist and the archer the male protagonist. Yang was grinning seeing that her words were having an effect on her partner she decided to resume.

"Then he carries you in his arms to a bed and whispers to you" Blake you're one hot pussy…."."

"What?"

"Cat" she finished.

"I guess...it won't hurt to buy some...underwear" she mumbled.

"What was that? You're have to speak louder" the brawler finished in a singalong tone.

"I said we should buy some underwear" she blushed.

"All right let's find you some hot and sexy lingerie that will make Oliver pierce you with his love arrow."

"That sounded wrong" the faunus's dirty side of her mind was playing her inappropriate images between herself and the vigilante in her head.

"I know that's the idea" Yang grinned at the double meaning behind she was enjoying this day a lot.

So they went to the area where the undergarments were and it made Blake regret she ever agreed with her blond partner. Yang has shown her some samples that made her blush like a tomato because they were so...naughty. Many were barely covering anything at all, others left anything for the male imagination and others were meant to give them nothing but nose bleeds. The blond brawler was encouraging her to pick a really nasty one that was topless so she can give Oliver quite the surprise but the cat faunus disagreed with her choice. Finally the raven haired girl picked something that was considered" decent" in her eyes though the brawler gave it a thumbs down not liking it. She paid for everything and left the store meeting Weiss and Ruby who seemed to have finished with the shopping.

"You guys are done?" smiled Yang.

"Don't say a word" Weiss frowned.

"What happened?"

"Your sister is probably the most troublesome person I have ever met. Not to mention so picky" the heiress turned to the rosette and the RWBY leader stuck her tongue at her.

"I'm just glad we're done with this dumb shopping. I don't know how can girls stay for hours looking for clothes that they might not buy" said the young Rose.

"It's all part of the shopping spirit which clearly you have none. Because of you I had to pay for that dress you ruined."

"Not my fault the zipper got stuck in my bra. I only wanted to buy one set of clothing and you looked like you wanted to buy the entire store."

"I told you it's the shopping spirit, all girls and women have it except you!"

"Actually she can buy the entire store if she wants to" said Yang pointing that the heiress's family has the money for such task.

"That's not the point! The point is I'm not doing this again. This is clearly the last time I'm taking you shopping Ruby."

"That's great I don't want to come back to this place ever."

"Well we got what we came here to buy. Should we head back to Beacon?" said Blake.

"Right we have a lot of work to do. Weiss you'll be in charge with preparing Ruby for her date, I will handle Blake."

"Wait a minute. I agreed to help her shopping for the clothes not help her to prepare."

"Ruby needs a nice make over and you are the only one who can do it. Don't you trust your make over skills?"

"Fine I suppose I can turn her into something that can be refer to as" pretty"."

"Hey I am pretty!" pouted the silver eyed girl while the Schnee heiress ignored her.

"Great looks like our mission remains operation make over is now beginning" said the brawler.

"I'm the leader I get to say when our mission starts. All right team RWBY let's get back to our dorm we have a mission to fulfill, Weiss I'm counting on you to turn me into a gorgeous girl."

"And you Blake are in safe hands with me" winked Yang.

"Should I be worried?" the faunus felt she had a right to feel that way while the blond gave a laugh.

(Location: Outside of Team JNPR dorm Beacon)

Jaune was patiently waiting for Pyrrha ready to take her to the movie theater in downtown. He was looking forward to see the latest Spruce Willis movie that he has being eagerly waiting to see. The blond leader was wearing his jeans with a blue shirt, black jacket just in case it gets chilly outside and a pair of white sneakers. In his opinion he thought he did good in the clothing it was just the movies and it's not like he was going on a date with the red head champion. That thought made him nervous his cheeks turning red it wasn't like that after all Pyrrha was his partner and friend. Then again he did end up going with her to the dance, but they were going as friends that was it. Taking a more logical point of view there was no way he had a chance against someone like her, she was too good for him.

"Why am I thinking too much about it? Pyrrha and I are good friends. Yeah just friends...right?"

The blond knight scratched his head not knowing how to answer that question. The Arc was too lost in thought he didn't realized the dorm door opening, someone coming up smiling at him.

"I'm ready Jaune."

The turned to see his partner and friend before he stood rooted to the ground. Pyrrha was wearing a short sleeve red blouse, which he noticed she was showing a very nice cleavage. He never realized she has such a nice bust but he stopped thinking further about that sexy detail. The rest of her clothing was a denim skirt below her knees, exposing her belly he has always thought her belly is sexy too. Finally she was wearing a pair of dark chestnut heels the rest was the same. She still had her long pony tail and her tiara he realized the accessory must be a gift from her family. The red head still hasn't said anything to him about her family but he understood if she didn't wanted to even if he already told her about her family remembering he mentioned to her about his seven sisters.

"That's Pyrrha she's...wow" he blushed.

"You look great Jaune" the red head smiled blushing at his appearance.

"You too…."

"Shall we get going?"

"Huh-oh yeah. If we go now we're sure to get the best seats. Just you see Pyrrha you're going to love the movie it's awesome."

"Sound like you already saw the movie" she giggled.

"No I haven't. But I've seen other Spruce Willis movies and they were great, I just now this one will be the best."

"Lead the way" she smiled.

As they left the door to the dorm opened and Nora stuck her head watching both teammates depart. Of course the Valkyrie realized Pyrrha has like Jaune for a while like the rest of the students because it was that obvious. Now there were times she wanted to walk right at the blond leader and scream it in his face how the red head feels about him. Nothing will make her happier than helping her friends and Jaune needed a small push to realize the girl next to him likes him. The blond leader was too dense to realize he might like her that way that's where she comes in, she already made a plan to hook them up. Just when she was about to follow them to the movies she was grabbed from behind by her partner and childhood friend.

"Nora, don't."

"But Ren I want to help them be together together."

"It's a kind gesture but that is up to them to decide. Jaune has to realize if he does like Pyrrha. Just let them spend this day as friends."

"Phooey I wanted to go to the movies too. Jaunie is dense as an Ursai's skin he'll never know if he likes her" pouted the hammer wielding girl.

"I wouldn't be too sure about that. Jaune is dense not that much I think he might know but he's still trying to figure out if he should make the move."

"Ren the way you said it is making me more anxious. I have to go!" she ran but the magenta eyed teen kept preventing her from leaving.

"You're not going anywhere."

"You can't keep me from leaving."

"Do you want pancakes?"

"Deal!" she smiled going back to the dorm.

(Time skip)

Oliver and Barry were walking the hallways heading for team RWBY's dorm. They were on their way to pick their dates for this evening and also prepared in wardrobe department. Barry was wearing a denim jacket with a red shirt, jeans with black and white sneakers while Oliver was dressed the opposite. An elegant tuxedo since he was taking Blake to the most expensive restaurant in Vale. In the speedster's case he was taking Ruby to the carnival nothing fancy just pure fun. The archer kept his glance at his partner it surprised him he looked calm when the times he talked to him of asking Ruby out the speedster will get embarrassed or nervous. But now the meta human was happy really looking forward to this evening and he didn't blame him. After almost living in Remnant for a year they finally feel like they have fitted in this world.

"I still find it hard to believe you asked Ruby."

"Believe it I did and I don't regret it. The carnival will only be in Vale for four days now's the best chance to ask her. I want to take her to a real fun place, nothing like where you're taking Blake."

"What can I say? I'm more of a classy guy."

"You mean the boring type?" the speedster smiled.

"Everyone's a critic but I'm pretty sure that's not how Blake feels. I'll find out when I take her to the Glimmering Pearl tonight."

"A fancy, expensive boring restaurant this is exactly what I'm talking about. A date should be about having fun with that special person, together."

"We'll be having fun in the restaurant."

"No you don't. You guys talk while eating what's the fun in that?"

"A date isn't just about having fun. Talking about your problems, personal life other experiences to share those moments with that person. That's what a date is all about, at least to me."

"I guess you're right but we can agree to disagree."

"Agree to disagree then" the archer gave a chuckle.

"I think you guys are both right" Yang smiled she stood by the door of RWBY's dorm" Ruby and Blake are still making final preparations for their big night, you guys will have to wait a little more."

"We are early than usual we can wait" said Oliver.

"Great" the brawler took a glance at the archer" not bad Oliver, Blake will like it and you will like when you see her in her dress."

"Always appreciate the compliments" he smiled.

"Now Barry there's something we need to talk about before you go. By the way really happy for you for finally asking Ruby out and about time too" she friendly elbowed the speedster on the sides.

"Oh boy here we go" Oliver sounded amused.

"What?" the speedster had no idea what was going on.

"Come on Barry we knew this was coming. Your going to date the little sister of the over protective older sister. It's the part when she will threaten you if you do anything inappropriate with her."

"Inappropriate….? Wait Yang I would never do that to Ruby I…." he blushed.

"Technically Oliver's right nothing personal Barry I know you're a good guy and all. But my sister's safety is my top priority especially her virginity that's why I have worked on this" the blond brawler took pieces of paper.

The scarlet vigilante took a glance at the tittle" rules for dating my little sister? You're kidding right?"

"Nope. Now the rules are many but I'm only going to focus on a few. So listen good because I won't repeat them."

"She can't be serious" Barry sweat dropped and Oliver was looking more amuse.

"Okay hand holding is allowed, kissing is allowed too, if you kiss on the lips...no tongue" she gave him a warning glare with her eyes turning red for a moment" touching is acceptable except her breast and butt and definitely no touching her cherry. You do that...you die no exceptions" her eyes turned red again while poking his chest.

"I said I'm not planning on doing any of that to her. We're only going to the carnival and have fun, and by fun I mean play the games, ride the rides, eat and talk that's it. How about putting some trust in me? You have trusted me before why can't you believe in me that I will bring back Ruby safe and a virgin."

"Speaking of virgin if you are planning in popping her cherry, you're only allowed to when she turns eighteen. That means you have to wait three years...wait, two and a half Ruby's birthday is next month" Yang resumed taking a glance at the official dating rules.

"Okay I get it you have my word I will not do nothing that involves the "s" word. Better yet I'll give you my word as the Flash that Ruby will return a virgin, how's that?"

"Sounds good now let's make it official" the blond took a pen showing him the papers" sign here as evidence that I read you some of the rules."

The speedster had to rolled his eyes as he took the pen and signed his name on the doted line.

"And here."

"…..."

"And here."

"….."

"And here" she passed another sheet of paper with doted line to sign.

"Really?" he blinked while Oliver was trying hard not to laugh.

"Can't forget here, this one is important."

"What the….? Life insurance? Why do I have to sign life insurance?"

"Just in case I have to kill you. You signed it Ruby will benefit herself from all the lien you will leave behind after I murder you" she smiled.

"Seriously Yang now I think you're over reacting."

"It never hurts to be safe. Anyway thank you for signing all the papers I appreciate for taking your time to listen to me."

"I'm starting to have second thoughts" the speedster smiled while the brawler rolled her eyes.

"Barry?" Oliver went to him" while we were on our way here you mentioned something about taking Ruby to this make out point you discovered after the carnival."

"What?" the speedster stood shocked at the dirty move the archer was pulling.

"Make out point?" the blond turned to the speedster with eyes burning red.

"Don't listen to him Yang he's lying. I'm not going to take her to any of that" Barry glared at the amused archer.

The brawler kept glaring at him before she started laughing" nice try Oliver but I trust Barry."

That was enough for the speedster vigilante to feel relief. The dorm door opened as Weiss emerged.

"Yang, they're ready."

"Oho they can come out the boys arrived early."

The first one to stepped out of the dorm was Blake and Oliver's attention was only on her. The amber eyed faunus's choice of clothing was captivating she has always looked good in black. The black dress did well in showing her curves revealing her beauty to the next level. He will be lying if he say he wasn't blushing but this, she looked even better than the dress she was wearing at the dance, her face had nice make up with eye liner and dark red lipstick. Beautiful, gorgeous, sexy those were the thoughts running on his head. After this he didn't regret making the reservation at the most expensive restaurant in the city, because she deserves it. She deserves the best and only the best he smiled at the cat faunus who was smiling back at him, her cheeks red. Tonight was going to be a great evening and he was going to make sure to be the best experience for the raven haired girl.

"Perfection."

"You look amazing."

"Same to you" she smiled not caring if she was blushing.

"Yeah yeah she looks great it doesn't matter" Yang said waving her off while Blake rolled her eyes at her partner's attitude.

"It matters to me" said the archer making the faunus smiled even more.

"What matters is that we saved the best for last" the blond kept smiling" Ruby come on out!"

From the door came the silver eyed leader and all eyes were on her, namely Barry. Her black and red hair was combed nicely along that it had a pink hair clip. She had make up similar to Blake but her lipstick was more bright red her clothing chosen by her was different from the cat faunus. A black jacket with a gray sleeveless blouse with a red skirt reaching below her knees, with white socks and black sneakers. The speedster stood in shocked gazing at the petite mesmerized by the sight. When he saw her wearing the red dress at the dance he thought she was pretty and she looked good in it. But with this, even if it was considered formal wear she was dropped dead gorgeous. Yang grinned watching him blushed and the same with her sister this date was going to be great. The rest of the team and Oliver thought the same thing.

"Well Barry, doesn't she look great?" asked the blond brawler.

"Uh...yeah...she's...wow and...wow" the speedster cleared his throat speechless.

"Th...Thanks Barry" the rosette stood embarrassed.

"What are you guys waiting for? Go already and enjoy your date" the blond gave her sister a thumbs up.

"Right we should get going don't worry I'll bring her before midnight" said Barry while Yang got close to him.

"Remember the rules" she whispered.

The speedster rolled his eyes taking Ruby's hand leading her away. Blake and Oliver have left as well but Yang kept her eyes on her sister accepting the hand hold from Barry. It was hard to believe her little sister was going on her first date and it was with a boy who was good and worth it. Then again she wasn't going to let some rude and probably perverted jerk take her, she will kill him before he gets the chance to ask her out. She didn't wanted to admit but she was growing up and she knew she wasn't going to stay little forever. Memories came flowing to the blond when Ruby was younger, the times they spent together with their parents, the times when she used to read her bed time stories. Not realizing her lilac eyes were getting teary she will always see the petite as her little sister blood related or not.

"She'll be okay."

"Hm..." the brawler turned to Weiss she quickly dried her eyes not knowing if the heiress noticed.

"Ruby will be fine she can take care of herself and she's with Barry. He's not going to let anything happen to her, so there's no need to worry."

"I know she's in good hands. I just wish I could keep an eye on her to see how her date will turn out. It's not everyday I get to see my little sister in her first date."

"Stalking her will be wrong. If you try it I will stop you" the heiress gave a disapproving glance.

"Like you'll be able to stop me" the blond gave a smirk.

"Don't tempt me. I can use one of my time glyphs to slow your movements."

"Chill out ice queen I'm kidding" she grinned at her pun.

"That is so lame."

"Next to go on a date will be you."

"Don't you dare start with that" the heiress frowned, yet her cheeks got red.

"I just know Snart will ask you out. Guess he's not that "cold" after all."

"I'm done here" the white haired girl went back to the dorm not wanting to hear another pun from the blond brawler.

(Scene change)

(Location: Near Vale Movie Theater)

Jaune couldn't be any happier spotting the Vale movie theater ahead. He was looking forward to watching the new movie from his idol that was Spruce Willis. The knight was eager it was clearly written on his face Pyrrha was able to tell he was that happy to see the movie. The red head champion was happy too but it wasn't because she was going to see the movie, it was something else. Honestly she wasn't much of a fan for action films namely with her partner's favorite actor. The only thing that mattered to her is that she was with him, she was spending time with him, bonding with him, staying by his side that was enough for her. She was pleased, happy for this evening and she was feeling the same way when Jaune went to ask her to dance with him back at the dance. The fact he chose over Weiss was truly a deed that made her have more respect for the blond leader.

"Whether it's a date or not I am happy he asked me to go with him."

"Two tickets to Dust with the vengeance please" the JNPR happily smiled taking some lien from his wallet.

The ticket seller from the both accepted the money and gave him the two tickets. The blond gave him to Pyrrha as they entered the movie theater. The red head was a bit surprised seeing the large amount of people even when it wasn't a weekend. Jaune took the chance to buy the pop corn and the soda so he pay for everything with his money. He remembered his father telling him in a date" the man always pay for the lady" so he took his advice to heart. Once that was out of the way both team members and friends went to the respective area where the movie was playing. They took their seats in the best place the blond knight thought was possible looking very eager. He offered pop corn to the red head which accepted and before they knew it the area went dark showing the sign the movie was about to begin.

"It's starting" smiled the JNPR leader.

Pyrrha just smiled at his eagerness she will also enjoy the movie and the evening. After all it was just her and him.

(Location: Carnival Amusement Park Downtown Vale)

Ruby couldn't be more excited right now, she overjoyed, better yet she was beyond overjoyed. The Rose petite kept her wide smile as Barry lead her to the entrance of the carnival and just like any other evening it was full of people. It was the reason why the speedster was holding her hand to make sure she doesn't get lost in the crowd. Ever since she heard that carnival was coming to Vale for a four night event she so badly wanted to go. Originally she wanted to go with her team along with team JNPR and even team ACFH but going with Barry alone was even better. She got the best deal ever and it was hard not to blush at the thought of going on a date with him. Not just any date, her first date she couldn't contain her excitement and being nervous too. Remembering the look the speedster had when he saw her with her outfit for tonight.

"Calm down Ruby take a deep breath. There's no need to get this nervous and happy its only my first date, with Barry and...OH MY GOSH! HE'S HOLDING MY HAND IT'S SO WARM! And he looks so cute with those clothes I can't control myself! I hope I don't faint from too much excitement, please Monty don't let me faint. Can I really do this? Is there even a manual on dating? I could sure use one right now."

The speedster vigilante turned to the silver eyed petite making sure he was still holding her hand. The last thing he wanted was her getting lost in this big crowded place. But he made sure to hold onto her hand tight he has already stole a couple of glances at her. The RWBY leader was so beautiful especially with make up on everything about her was radiating with ever lasting beauty. He was determined to make tonight very special for the scythe wielder, that she experience the most fun ever. Not to mention it was the perfect evening for him to tell the rosette how he feels it was something he's been thinking for a while. He even talked to Oliver with some advice since he was already in a relationship with Blake. It was now or never he won't back down and he wasn't planning in staying quiet forever.

The scarlet vigilante took his turn waiting in the line to buy the tickets. Arriving early gave him the advantage to buy them quickly not waiting too long to do the long line. Once he got the tickets he lead the silver eyed girl inside the carnival where they got a quick view of the whole place. Even with the many people the carnival was bigger than they thought. With the many places to go the speedster gaze where to go first. Ruby signaled him by pulling his jacket to get his attention she was pointing at him to the roller coaster. Barry smiled at the girl looking like she has read his mind they went to make the line for the ride. It took a while but it was worth it they were lucky to get on the front of the cart and the ride started turning into a high speed wild ride. It wasn't as fast as the Flash or as Ruby's new developed speed but it was still fun.

Nevertheless both have enjoyed the roller coaster ride and wanted to try all of them during their stay. After they were done they went to other types of rides from ones that they let you fly, to aquatic ones, others were a bit extreme like one that they lift you high in the air where you have a perfect view of the entire carnival park and after they dropped you off so quick it feels you have left your stomach back at the starting point. After the rides they went to the arcade section where they found games that the actual arcade in downtown doesn't have. They played all kinds of games even virtual ping pong, virtual tennis and virtual table hockey. They were there playing for over an hour when Ruby's stomach started growling and Barry gladly obeyed her non-talked request taking her to the food court area of the park.

The food court was Ruby's dream come true because they literally everything she loves. From cotton candy, candy apple and even her favorite strawberry milkshake with chocolate chips. The speedster didn't wanted her to get sugar rush so he bought her things like pizza or burgers, he did so avoiding her sad puppy eyes. That special attack was very effective when the silver eyed petite was so cute and adorable so he avoid them like he was dodging deadly poison Nevermore feathers. Not wanting to see her using it to a more stronger level he decided to fulfill one of her request to buy her something sweet so he bought her some cotton candy. He also bought some food for himself because he was getting hungry too, both enjoyed it while getting seated on a bench. After waiting an hour from their eating because the scythe wielder wanted to get on more rides which made Barry rolled his eyes with a smile.

They went to a couple more roller coaster type rides after that they went to the carousel which the scythe wielder had some friendly fun riding on one of the horses. After some convincing from the speedster Ruby finally agreed to go with him to the Ferris wheel. They did the line and put together in one of the carts, slowly they were going up getting the best view of the carnival and all of Vale. The RWBY leader stood in awe at the view gazing from the window while Barry was in thought. The reason he convinced her to go with him here was to tell her his feelings and right now, he was pretty much nervous. He planned for finally telling her tonight while the petite looked like she didn't had a clue what was going on in his head. If he somehow messes up he won't be able to live with himself.

"I can do this, its not that hard. I was able to tell Iris how I felt and it didn't turned good." the speedster vigilante couldn't the thought from his head.

"Wow we're so high! It's even higher when I was on that bull head with Yang heading to Beacon. I can see everything from up here there's Signal academy, there's Beacon, there's the CCT I can't even see From Dust Till Dawn too!"

"And you didn't wanted to go to the Ferris Wheel" a smirked spread over the speedster's lips.

"I'm happy you convinced me" the scythe wielder gave a silly smile.

"So how's the date so far? You like it?"

"Are you kidding?!" the silver eyed leader thought he was joking" I'm loving it! I've never had so much fun ever" she blushed smiling it was better than she thought.

"I'm happy to know at first I was a bit hesitant. I was thinking um..I don't know if she's going to like the carnival she might think its childish."

"Uh uh it's not childish its awesome! It's even better because you're here...I'm always happy when I'm with you" she muttered the last part her cheeks red getting embarrassed.

"Okay it's not childish Ruby Rose approves of the carnival" he smiled and she gave that bright smile that will lift anyone's spirit.

"Barry...thanks for tonight. I knew it was going to be lots of fun but not this fun."

"No problem" he smiled back.

Suddenly the Ferris Wheel stopped leaving the teens at the top with the great view. Both knew this was the part of the ride where it stops for a couple of minutes before it resumes moving. The scarlet speedster couldn't be happier at this turn of events because this gives him more time to come up with the words to tell the petite leader the truth. Almost a year since his arrival to Remnant, almost a year since he first met her and just a couple of months ago he realized his feelings for the red hooded cloaked girl. Though he was aware Ruby was young and innocent the right choice will be to have a slow and steady relationship with her especially when Yang has already threatened to kill him if he does something inappropriate to her little sister. He wasn't in a hurry because it was Ruby he could wait forever just having her by his side was enough.

"Just to let you know, I'm happy you said yes because it makes it easier to what I have to say…." he paused and the silver eyed girl stood paying attention to him" there's something I've been wanting to tell you."

"When I arrived at Remnant I thought I could never be able to fit in, in this world. That I could never see this world as something precious or worth fighting for I was wrong. I have come to see Remnant as a world that means a lot to me and its worth risking my life to protect it. I've come to love the people and the many friends I have made…."

"Silly I already know that" Ruby kept smiling with her cheeks red.

"You also know you're the best thing that ever happened to me in Remnant. You will always be the best thing that happened to me you're very precious to me Ruby and I…."

He chuckled" looks like I messed up, I knew I was going to have a problem with this."

"What's wrong?" the silver eyed petite stood confused.

"I...I'm having problems because ever since I met this girl reading a weapons magazine at the dust shop I used to work I knew there was something about her that drove me towards her. She's young, short, very pretty, kind, cheery with the most adorable smile I have ever seen, funny and strong she's very strong. I've seen her fighting and yeah the Grimm have a right to be afraid of her…."

"What?" Ruby felt a strong pain in her heart" there's a girl Barry likes….? She reads weapons magazines just like me and she's a huntress too!"

"We became good friends, the best of friends. After she attended Beacon our friendship grew stronger into something I never thought will be possible. For a while I started denying that I might have developed feelings for her but ever since Christmas...I knew it was true that I've fallen for her. I never thought it will happen it caught me off guard but it did happened. I admitted now this girl is very special to me I can never imagine been away from her for too long, or not having her by my side. I lover her very much and I hope she feels the same way too…."

Ruby didn't know what to say she stood seated looking speechless. She could literally feel her heart shattering into millions of pieces and for the first time in her entire life, she was experiencing heart break. Barry the boy she has like for almost a year like another girl who was a weapons maniac and a huntress, just like her. The irony was ridiculous and here she was listening to the whole thing by the speedster himself. What was the point of asking her out if he was going to rub it in her face that there was another girl who has stolen his heart. By now her face was filled with tears and she wanted to get off from the Ferris Wheel so she can ran away from here and don't look back. But her thoughts were interrupted, the pain was still there as the vigilante looked at her worried.

"Ruby what's wrong? Why are you crying?"

"I'm...okay…." she sobbed.

"You're not okay tell me what wrong now? Please" he pulled her closer.

"….."

"Ruby I'm not going to stop until you tell me what's bothering you. You don't cry for feeling okay."

"I'm just thinking how lucky you are...you found someone…."

The speedster smiled before chuckling.

"What's so funny?" the silver eyed petite wanted to get angry at him for thinking hurting her feelings was something to laugh at.

Barry kept the close space between as he reached to dry her tears, he smiled" It's you Ruby...You're the girl I like."

"…..."

"I like you for a while now and I planned tonight to finally be the day to tell you. I couldn't keep quiet any longer you have no idea how important you are to me."

"Really….? You like me?" the RWBY leader stood dumbfounded.

"Yes I do" he smiled.

"Oh...Oh heh silly me for thinking that you like someone else" she blushed embarrassed feeling stupid then she stood in thought" by saying "like" you mean more than a friend right?"

"Yes."

"Like as in together together like?" the petite copied Nora.

"Yes."

"Oh…." once that was confirmed Ruby followed to blushed deep red.

"I want you to know whether you feel the same or not I want us to be together. But I would like if its okay with you that we can take this...relationship slow and steady. You're still young but it doesn't mean we can't spend time together, or hold hands or even hug."

"Or...Kiss….?" the scythe wielder's face got redder.

"We can discuss that later but right now I want to know your answer. Ruby do you feel the same?"

"…..."

The silver eyed petite stood in her place this time she was shocked while her face remained the same color as her cloak. It's like her brain has stopped working and she was now frozen unable to move and unable to reply to Barry's question. Inside her head, in her brain dozens of mini Ruby's got together in an office getting seated in a long rectangular table. The Ruby's were the same but they were different in appearance they were wearing a variety of clothes. One was wearing a maid uniform, another a Girl's Scout uniform, another a cowgirl outfit, another a Japanese kimono, another a US soldier uniform, another one an astronaut attire, another a scuba diving outfit and so and on. The Ruby wearing a judge outfit hit the sound block with her gavel ready to begin the reunion.

---

"All right let's start this session. We must decide and vote on what Ruby's answer will be."

"Do we even have to get together for this? The answer should be obvious it's yes" said cheerleader Ruby.

"I'll say I'll say she's right we all know how much she likes Barry" followed cowgirl Ruby speaking in a Texas accent.

"Yeah so we should all vote yes. Then she will kiss him and remove his clothes and do all kinds of things on him" giggled the Ruby who was only wearing a bath towel.

"Leave it to the pervert to ruin this reunion" said US soldier Ruby with a glare at the perverted girl.

Mime Ruby was doing the box while everyone sweat dropped at her.

"Okay who invited her?" asked the annoyed biker Ruby.

"I called for everyone to be present" replied Judge Ruby.

"But she can't speak and she's freaking annoying" the girl wearing a black leader jacket with jeans and black boots was still glaring at the Mime member.

"Everyone please let's stay on topic okay?" said maid Ruby.

Kimono Ruby started talking giving her opinion on the topic but nobody understood her because she only speaks Japanese.

"And this one doesn't speak English!" biker Ruby pointed to the Japanese girl.

"By the way would anyone like some tea?" asked the maid.

"Got any Jack Daniels?" said the cowgirl with her eyes lit up.

"I don't serve alcohol my apologies."

"Well I'll be a monkeys uncle."

"Houston we have a problem" followed astronaut Ruby.

"I miss Monty Oum!" cried school girl Ruby.

"Anyone watched the new Batman vs Superman movie?" said comic nerd Ruby.

"Order!" Judge Ruby hit the sound block with her gavel making everyone shut up" I want all of you to stay on the topic at hand. You no alcohol, you we won't drink tea either, you I don't care about some silly comic book hero movie. You there's nothing that can be done about Monty Oum he's in a much better place now, you you are no longer on the Moon so stop saying that stupid Houston line and you I just happen to know Japanese so I very well understand our kimono friend."

Kimono Ruby talked as the judge gave a nod turning to the rest of the group" she says that Ruby loves Barry very much but she's still unaware of the extent of that love. Thus the answer she should give him is yes so they can start a slow steady relationship. In doing so she will understand the length of her love for him."

"That is very wise I agreed" said doctor Ruby.

"Who wants to see Ruby banging Barry-" pervert Ruby had her mouth covered by biker Ruby.

"If you have nothing good to say or non perverted then don't say anything all."

"You mean riding him like a stallion?" cowgirl Yang smiled before spitting some tabaco.

"Ewww gross!" said the disgusted school girl.

"She wants to take the Flash express into pleasure ville" cheered the perverted girl" faster than a speeding bullet I know her first org-" suddenly she was tied up from head to toe by the bike girl.

"I warned you pervert."

"Thank you" the judge couldn't be any happier" it would appear we have all discussed the matter, now it's time to vote. All those in favor that Ruby should tell Barry yes."

Everyone raised their hands.

"All who believe she should tell him no?"

Only one mini Ruby raised her hand.

"Who did that?!" said the outrage biker girl.

"I did!" emo girl Ruby got up from the table" she's only going to get hurt why bother? She's only asking to be alone and feel the cold and endless darkness, there is no such thing as happiness only pain."

"I take that back" biker girl took a quick glance at Mime Ruby who was still doing the box and glance back at the emo girl" this one is more annoying!"

"Too bad we outnumber you in votes Ruby will answer yes and she will accept Barry in a relationship."

"Your all making a mistake."

"Nobody asked you!"

"Then it's decided" Judge Ruby hit the sound block with her gavel" Ruby's answer is yes!"

---

"Ruby?"

"…...….….."

"Hey, you okay?" Barry got worried staring at the silver eyed girl.

"Hm..oh Barry...sorry you say something?"

"You've been quiet for a while I got worried something was wrong with you."

"Nah I'm okay" she smiled" I still trying to process that you have told me you like me" she blushed.

"Yeah I know it sounds so sudden but you don't have to give me your answer now I will understand-"

"Yes…." she whispered.

"What?"

"I...I said yes. I..I..I like you too. I have for a while I honestly didn't know when it was that I starting feeling this way for you, but I know its there. Yang helped me figure it out or I would have never known."

"So you like me too?" he gave a mischievous smile while the petite leader gave a shy nod" then you know what happens next…."

"Uh...we get to be...you know...together together?" Ruby kept her blush while fidgeting.

"In a relationship yes. But like I said I want us to be slow and steady there's no need to hurry, you're young and I want you to mature from it. I'm not saying you're immature."

"No no it's okay I know what you mean. I'll be sixteen next month and I know I have a lot to learn since it's the first time I'm in an actual relationship."

"Your birthday yeah Yang already told me. Good thing I know, I can start looking for a gift."

"A birthday gift?! What is it? Tell me please" the RWBY leader didn't hesitated giving him the sad puppy eyes.

"Not yet you'll have to wait" he smiled watching her do her cute pout" but I can give you something now."

"What is it?"

"This…."

Without warning he pulled her face closer to him making the petite leader blushed to a whole new level. Time stopped when the speedster has kissed her lips in a soft tender kiss. Ruby didn't know what to say or what to think she only felt like she was flying, like there were fireworks, like she was hit by a joyful jolt of electricity every single positive and wonderful feelings were cursing through her entire body. She never thought her first kiss will be so unique, so amazing, so wonderful and so...magical. Her heart was ready to burst or escape from her chest, from how happy she was feeling. The moment was sadly broken when the Ferris Wheel resumed moving and Barry had to break the kiss. Either he should chuckled or be amused staring at the silver eyed girl whose face was so red, it was even redder than her cloak.

"Looks like we're going back to the ground. So where else do you want to go?"

"…...…..….."

"Ruby?"

Then the RWBY leader has suddenly fainted from the warm pleasant intensity of that kiss. It should be expected her first kiss will have such an effect on her. Luckily the scarlet speedster caught her just in time before she could fall to the ground. He was very happy because this evening has turned out exactly as he planned. The date was a success she accepted to go with him to the carnival, she had lots of fun, she returned his feelings and now she has fainted from their first kiss. Now all he needed was to enjoy the rest of the evening and he knew Ruby was going to enjoy it too. After getting to the ground and leaving the Ferris Wheel he went to the nearest bench to lie the petite down until she wakes up. Thinking the best way to wake her up was to buy some candy apple or a strawberry chocolate chip milkshake.

(Scene change)

(Location: The Glittering Pearl Restaurant)

Blake was expecting a great evening for her first date but she was never ready for what Oliver had in store for her. As the archer vigilante claimed he brought her to the most expensive restaurant in the kingdom of Vale. But she never expected to see the restaurant empty they were the only ones present, the archer told her he made private reservations for them. The comment made her smiled her boyfriend has promised everything he told her, even the table he reserved. He showed her to the table in the VIP section where it really showed the best view of the entire restaurant packed with a bottle of an expensive brand of champagne with two beautiful designed glasses. That wasn't all the owner himself was the one who took their order and gave them the best service they could ever received. Her first date has become a unique experience that has changed her life for the better.

So here she was after Oliver seated her on their reserved table like the true gentlemen he is. Their food arrived on time and she was quite surprised to find out she was given the tuna salad special with casserole and it tasted heavenly. It was nothing she has ever tasted the delicious taste of the tuna mixed with the salad along with the casserole was exquisite. She stood quiet for a while so she could continued savoring the flavor while the archer kept on eating a chicken pasta with white cheese sauce, he was also enjoying the meal. After they were pretty much done with their meal they took a break to enjoying the scenery the full view of the city from their VIP table. Oliver took a glance at the faunus girl she truly looked beautiful on this evening on the contrary, she was always beautiful.

"Are you enjoying the evening so far?"

"As much as my plate" she replied with a smile.

"I can see that. Good tuna?" he smiled.

"Good is not the word I would describe it. That dish was beyond amazing. I guess its to be expected from the most expensive restaurant in Vale."

"Glad to know you like it. I actually found this place by accident during one of my missions. It happened before I saved the restaurant from those robbers. I was chasing a hit and run and passed around here, at first I thought it was a jewelry store" he chuckled while the raven haired girl did the same.

"It does have that look when you gaze at it the first time."

"Then the name" The Glittering Pearl" sounds like a jewelry store to me. After the mission I decided to check it out and I don't regret it. I knew this will be the perfect place to take you, then the prize just for reserving a table was a little too much for my budget it wasn't going to happen until that robbery took place. I never thought a robbery to the restaurant will be the second best thing that ever happened to me."

"Sometimes luck happens to everyone, I honestly never thought I would ever come here. With or without people in it."

"The same goes with a private reservation usually this place should be full on a weekend, but as you can see it's just us" Oliver smiled how much she was enjoying this evening with the faunus girl.

The waiter arrived to their table, more precise it was the owner of the restaurant who was personally the couple for this evening. He was an older man with light gray hair, dark eyes with a mustache wearing an elegant tuxedo. The man had this essence of politeness and a figure that has a lot of income it was no surprise being the own of a very successful and expensive restaurant he had lots of capital. The owner gave the couple of kind smile noticing that they have finished their dishes. Though these people didn't seemed to be below the high class he didn't care because this was a request from the archer vigilante to reserve this night for Oliver Queen and his girlfriend. He wasn't the kind of man to judge others from their social class, he was fair and that was very rare to find in high class society.

"Pardon me Mr. Queen and Miss Belladonna I do hope you have enjoyed our dishes."

"We sure did Bastion we found them very delicious, my girlfriend approves of the tuna salad special" the archer turned to the faunus who nodded in approval.

"Pleased to know it is our purpose and goal to see customers approving of our dishes. Now would any of you like some desert or will that be all?"

"I will have to politely decline I am full, what about you Blake?"

"I'm full too there's no room for desert."

"You can bring us some water I doubt my lovely girlfriend would like more champagne" he smiled seeing the amber eyed girl blushed slightly because she drank more of the beverage than him before the arrival of their food.

"Will do Mr. Queen do not hesitate to call on me if you need anything else. And Mr. Queen, please give my thanks to the Arrow without his help I would have pretty much be in a hospital bed right now or worse."

"I'll make sure to tell him Bastion thank you for everything" he smiled at the owner as he left the table.

"He seems like a good person."

"He is, not cold heart rich type but respectable type. He volunteered to treat us instead of ordering one of his employees it shows his dedication to his work and to repay the Arrow."

Blake gave a nod her amber eyes traveled to the bottle of champagne next to her. Oliver was right she did drank more than him which lead for the battle to become half empty. Then she noticed her boyfriend starting at her with that amusement expression, was he reading her mind? She tried not to blush while giving a cough ignoring the topic of her drinking. To be honest she has never drank any alcohol in her life there weren't any members in the White Fang who were fans of alcoholic beverages. They were more focus in doing missions than participating in any pleasantries.

"No more champagne for you Miss."

"I wasn't thinking about that" she frowned.

"Were you?" he smiled" you were staring at the bottle that gives me the impression you want to drink more."

"I don't."

"You almost drank the whole bottle I was almost worried. The last thing I want is for you to get a little intoxicated on our first date."

"I deserve to drink some because its our first date I got curious. I never had any."

"Good point I won't argue anymore. You deserve to have a taste."

"Oiiver?" the faunus started with a smile" thanks for all of this."

"You don't have to thank me its our first date I needed to make plans for this. There's also something I want to talk to you Blake, I've been thinking what you said about trusting Snart and Mick. I still find it hard to trust them I never approve of having them helping us, in fact I never approve of been in charge of a team. This was all Ozpin's idea in the first place to make the four of us into a team. He forced us to work together, two vigilantes and two criminals it doesn't add up, there are too many flaws for this team to happen and yet I have to accept this task because I know that as hard as it is to admit it, we need them both Snart and Mick we need their help from whatever the Queen has in store for Remnant."

"I understand how you feel Oliver. It was the same for me and everyone we were probably forced to accept our responsibilities."

"That's not true Blake you decided to go to Beacon on your own will. You decided to become a huntress and so as everyone else who went to the academy. It was your decision to become a student not Ozpin's."

"That may be true but are you forgetting the initiation test at the Emerald forest? The first person you make eye contact will be your partner for the next four years, doesn't that sound force? Launching us in the air randomly? Using chess pieces to determine teams? Everything sounds force from my perspective for all we know Ozpin planned all along which students will become team members, he might have already know there was going to be a team RWBY and knew to make Ruby leader. It's the same with team JNPR and CRDL with making Jaune and Cardin as the leaders of those teams. In other words all of our teams were forced in a way, that's why I understand your situation."

"You have a good point but it doesn't changes the fact that Ozpin didn't made you go to Beacon. You made the decision not him. When he first came to me and Barry he wanted us to work for him because he thought we could help him in making Vale safe. I never doubted that the Flash and I we have made a huge difference decreasing the crime in Vale as well as decreasing Grimm activity. But sometimes I wonder how much he knew about us."

"What do you mean?" asked the cat faunus.

"Ozpin heard about us from hearing so much throughout the media, or so I thought" he paused seeing the amber eyed girl paying attention to him" but now, I feel he has known about us since we arrived in Remnant."

"Before you two started as vigilantes in Vale? That's impossible how would he know? Even if he has many sources of information he couldn't possibly know your arrival here."

"That's what I think anyway since arriving to this world I have met some unique individuals, Doctor Fate is the first and now Ozpin. I won't question his motives, I know he wants what's best for Vale and the other kingdoms, Doctor Fate is the one who worries me. I haven't seen or heard from him since that time with Barry in his sanctuary before he sent us here. What could he be planning by sending heroes and villains here? What do you think?"

"I think you're over thinking things too much" Blake gave a smile taking his hand.

"You're probably right. We're here to enjoy the food and each others company not to frustrate you with my problems."

"You're not frustrating me Oliver I'm just saying you shouldn't be over thinking things when you don't even know the answers" the raven haired faunus paused seeing Bastion arriving bringing them a jar with water and new glasses filled with it.

"Thank you Bastion" the archer smiled.

"If you need anything else please let me know" the restaurant owner gave a bow before leaving again.

"Okay moving on to another topic Snart and Mick have developed their semblance something I wasn't expecting and I'm not surprised that Ozpin isn't worried about it."

"I know Yang told me. She unlocked Mick's aura while he was in one of her" rehabilitation exercises" I honestly don't know what to think."

"Ozpin did told me of Yang and Weiss volunteering to be rehabilitation coordinators, at first I thought he was kidding but then, I thought it was the end of the world. I understand Yang willing to do something like that but not Weiss."

"You got it right Yang convinced the headmaster she wanted to volunteer too"

"That explains it. According to Ozpin Snart and Mick are doing good with the rehabilitation process, maybe things aren't so bad as I thought."

"Well Mick is showing progress he hasn't frown or have made any of his usual sour faces. He actually likes anything that Yang throws at him and the same for Snart. I had my doubts at first I remember Weiss was so angry with Yang's idea she didn't wanted to do anything with Snart. But after she got back from her home she's been strangely getting along with him, I know weird" said the faunus member of RWBY.

"I really hope Ozpin knows what he's doing. I have always had a hard time trying to read him now that the rogues have their aura and semblance they're more dangerous than before. They could pose a real threat to the kingdoms and the collars aren't going to last long."

"Think of it that its better this way. Now that they can get rid of their collars we'll finally know if they have change or they remain the same criminals."

Oliver stood impressed by her deduction" that's really clever so we should take it as a good thing?"

"Pretty much. Also you will know if you can trust them to be team players for the team."

"That's true I find it hard to come up with a decision when it comes to trusting those two."

Suddenly they heard the sound of beautiful slow music playing. The archer vigilante smiled knowing this was Bastion's work this was the VIP section of the restaurant after all. He smiled to Blake as he got up from the table extending his hand keeping his smile.

"May I have this dance?"

"Sure" she smiled getting up from the table.

He took her hand taking her to the middle surrounding the many tables. With the half shattered Moon in full view from their position and the slow music playing this was the perfect place and mood to share a dance. The archer pulled the faunus closer to him meeting her eyes and followed the movements according to the soft rhythm of the music. Pretty soon Blake wrapped her arms around his neck pulling him closer enjoying the dance it was just like the first time they danced back at the Beacon dance. The cat faunus couldn't be any happier than she was now everything about this evening has turned out even better than she thought. Perfect place, perfect time, perfect mood Oliver has shown her how good he can be when it comes to setting up a date. For her first date this was simply the best and she hope their future ones are as good as this one.

"Oliver?"

"Yeah….?"

"I don't want this to end" she whispered holding onto him.

"It doesn't have to" he whispered back" we can stay here as long as you like. Bastion isn't going anywhere until we're done here."

The amber eyed girl went to gaze into his eyes" we can stay here a little longer?"

"As you wish then" he smiled while removing a strand of her hair from her face.

Without another word or thought she leaned in to kiss him passionately and her complied accepting the kiss. They have come to love so much the taste of their lips it has become an addiction like a healthy drug that they could never get rid off. The archer was happy with himself knowing tonight went excellent and he could tell Blake truly enjoyed it. It wasn't long before the faunus started giving soft moans pretty soon she realized the taste of his lips wasn't enough to satisfy this hunger that has been slowly growing inside of her for a while. She wanted more not just his kiss, but his touch as well she was actually getting aroused remembering the last pages she read from ninjas of love. She cursed mentally as she sadly had to broke the kiss with the vigilante remembering the words of her partner when they were shopping at the mall.

"Anything can happen in the first date" anything". I'm sure you'll want to jump his bones before the end of the night."

"Damn you Yang for been right."

"You okay?" asked the worried Oliver he didn't expected to break the kiss so suddenly.

"I'm fine. It's getting late we should head back to Beacon."

"You just said you didn't wanted this to end?" he was confused at her sudden change of attitude.

"I know but I'm feeling tired thank you for tonight Oliver I really had a great time" she smiled.

"Okay...if you feel that way I'll tell Bastion we're leaving so he can close the restaurant."

"Don't try to get the wrong idea Oliver I'm okay, just tire…."

"It is late" the archer checked the clock from his scroll it was almost midnight" you're probably right."

"I have to find a way to get rid of these thoughts. I almost blew it losing control. There's no need to hurry I can wait until the right time and I don't want to pressure him in moving too fast with our relationship."

Luckily for her Oliver seemed to buy her excuse even if she was angry with herself. If she stayed here for another minute she will end up doing something she won't be regretting. They just got together there was no need to rush things. Maybe this was a sign that she should stop reading ninjas of love no matter how much she love the book. Further reading will only make things worse for her this never happened before because she was never in a relationship. When she was single reading such book was her guilty pleasure and she could fantasize anything without worrying about any restraints. Of course that all changed once she got together with the archer vigilante. She mentally sighed while smiling at her boyfriend showing him that she has loved tonight. No doubt she wanted to go on another date and maybe next time she will show more restrain.

(Scene change)

After watching the action movie Jaune and Pyrrha have decided to return to Beacon. Now usually they would want to take a walk around town but since it was late the decided to call it a night. Both teens were happy walking the halls of the school, one was happier than the other. The red head champion was over joyed she knew it wasn't a date but still her partner chose to take her to spend time with him by doing something he likes, which it was watching the movie he's been looking forward to see for a while. That was enough for her and also the blond leader was telling her his opinion about the movie while exaggerating a bit, clearly he was pleased with the movie they have watched. Spending time with Jaune alone will always be the best thing that has ever happened to her, not caring any of her past achievements as a fighter and huntress in training.

"I have to say it again. Best Spruce Willis movie ever."

"I admit it was fun to watch, truly filled with action. But they over did it with the dust special effects."

"It's an action movie Pyrrha you can never have enough dust special effects. I love this one Spruce Willis will remain my favorite action movie hero. Still his other movies are good too the first two sequels before this one, you gotta love them."

"Two sequels?" the red head didn't knew there were movies of the same genre with the actor.

"You haven't seen "Die Tough by Dust" and "Die Tough by Dust 2"? I have them on Purple Ray discs if you want to we can see them later. I also have a couple of actions movies from different actors like "Above Siege" staring Ethen Seagal and Exterminator staring Harold Schwarzenegger."

"I didn't know you were such a big action movie fan Jaune" she smiled.

"Well now you know I'm just glad you join me to watch the movie Dust with the Vengeance. Honestly I didn't wanted to go alone and it will be a waste not to use the second ticket."

"….."

"Jaune….?" she started" is it all right if I ask you a question?"

"You just did" he smiled and happy to see the red head chuckling at his lame joke" no for real what is it?"

"Why me? Why did you chose me to go with you to the movie theater? You could have asked Ren or Nora for the matter."

"I don't think that will be a good idea" Jaune gave a shiver imagining the Valkyrie going to the movies and making a big fuzz or doing something crazy, out of ordinary something more like...Nora.

"Not just them, you could have asked anyone else aside from our teammates. Like Ruby or Weiss…."

"I told you I didn't wanted to ask Weiss, I got the message clearly she's not interested in me that way."

"Then why me?" she turned to him her bright green eyes on him searching for an answer.

"You're asking as if you didn't like going with me" the blond gave a hurtful expression thinking she didn't enjoy his company, maybe he made a mistake asking her.

"No that's not true I had a wonderful time with you. I am very happy you asked me Jaune I just...I just want to know why you picked me?"

"Why you? I guess because you're my partner and my friend. You have always been there for me, you're the reason I have gotten strong also thanks to Oliver. But you were the one who unlocked my aura, I would have never last a day in Beacon if you haven't decided to give me a hand. That's 's why I chose you, who else to invite to see one of my favorite movies than the person who has always believe in me?"

Pyrrha stood frozen listening to every bit of his words and her heart was ready to leap for joy. She has blushed at how heartwarming his speech sounded to think he will see her that way it was an honor and for that it made her so happy. She ignored the many times her heart was skipping beats hearing his answer to be acceptable she was exceptional to him not because she was Pyrrha Nikos the six times Sanctum champion but because she was just Pyrrha to him, his partner, his friend the girl who helped him become the person he is today. She stared at the blond leader his cheeks have gotten red looks like his speech has caused him to feel a little embarrassed it made her giggled.

"I see...then I won't say another word. I'm flattered you feel that way Jaune, it means a lot to me."

"It's the truth there was no one else I could think of to invite than you. Look Pyrrha its true that I wanted to bring Weiss at first but not anymore. I just...I don't want you to think that you were...you know, a second place medal or something."

"Not at all Jaune. Hearing your words just now I know you never saw me as one and I never thought of myself as one either. For that you have my gratitude."

"Okay heh" he gave a silly smile which it was one of the smiles she loves to see from him" anyway I had a great time tonight I hope we can go to the movies again, what about you?"

"It was the best night of my entire life and I do hope you invite me again. I will look forward to it" she smiled with so much honestly she really did wanted to go out with him again.

"Its a promise then, we'll return to the movie theater."

(Scene change)

(Location: Team RWBY dorm)

"Is she coming?"

"No."

Weiss was looking through the half opened door with Yang behind her. The Schnee heiress was been used as the blonds eyes waiting for Ruby to arrived. Because it was late the girl have already changed into their sleeping clothes and one of them looked very anxious, more precise a certain blond brawler. Yang was eager and worried for two reasons, one she wanted to know how her sister date went and two she was worried because it was passed midnight and she hasn't arrived yet. One thing was certain she was going to kill a certain scarlet speedster for not bringing her sister on time. It was ridiculous the person who considers himself the fastest man alive and he was late to bring the silver eyed leader. She was controlling herself from unleashing her anger, the speedster was in big trouble.

"Well Barry has officially dug his grave. He better pray to Monty I don't see him" her eyes turned red briefly.

"How about now? Is she coming?"

"For the last time Yang no!" Weiss sighed annoyed at the blond for been inpatient" I know you're worried about Ruby but you have to stop asking me every minute."

"Excuse me if I can't help but worry that my little sister hasn't return when its almost one in the morning."

"You have every right to be worried for her but try not to over react. Don't forget she's with Barry so she'll be fine."

"That's what I'm afraid of" the blond muttered as her lilac eyed widened remembering something before Barry picked up her sister.

"What if Oliver wasn't kidding and Barry did took Ruby to a make out point? He better not be trying to deflower her. I don't care if he's the fastest man alive I will kill him if...heh then he will be the fastest man dead nice."

"What are you laughing about?" Weiss turned to her worried.

"Nothing just of a pun I remembered saying a long time ago."

"First you're worried about Ruby and now your reminiscing of your past puns? Honestly Yang I'm starting to get worry for you" the heiress noticed movement in the hallways she took another glance outside of their dorm" I hear footsteps someone's coming this way."

"Finally it must be Ruby" the brawler felt relief" okay places."

Both went back to their beds pretending they weren't waiting for their leader's return. Weiss decided to polish her nails while keeping her eyes on the door and Yang stood without getting to her upper bunk bed. She started tapping her right foot impatiently waiting for her sister to emerge from that door. She wasn't happy with her she should know better than arrived late at night especially when she reminded her to return to Beacon on midnight not after. As soon as she saw the doorknob been turned she couldn't take it anymore, and marched straight at it. When it was opened she was expecting to see Ruby but she was disappointed realizing that it was the other team member that also had a date.

"Oh it's just Blake" she frowned.

The cat faunus raised an eyebrow at her partner's comment then she looked at Weiss.

"She's worried that Ruby hasn't arrive yet."

"She's not back yet?" the amber eyed girl got a bit worried knowing it was late.

"She's an hour late" the brawler wasn't happy.

"Have you try calling her?" asked the raven haired girl.

"I did called her scroll and I keep getting her voice mail, I think something happened to her. I swear if Barry has done something to her I will use him for a speedster pinata."

"Barry isn't going to hurt her, she's in good hands."

"That's what I told her, Ruby will be fine" replied the Schnee heiress.

"I know he's not going to hurt her it's just…." Yang gave a look that it was enough for both girls to realized what she was talking about and it made them blushed deep.

"Barry would never do that he...He's not like that" said the heiress.

"I'm with Weiss we know Barry enough and he isn't that kind of person. I think you're over reacting."

"Then why isn't she here yet? Why hasn't she call me back? I told her clearly to return by midnight and its…." the blond checked the clock in her scroll" it's now one in the morning with ten minutes and no sign of her no call from her yet and…."

The brawler paused when the door opened revealing her younger sister. Ruby looked nervous and asides from her expression her teammates couldn't stop staring at the giant teddy bear she was carrying with both arms. Of course she knew she was in big trouble because she passed her curfew just like her big sister told her and arrived an hour late. Yang immediately walked up to the silver eyed petite ready to bring down her wrath on her. The rosette knew she was upset because her lilac eyes have changed color to her semblance red. Now this was the part when she will give a pretty good excuse that will spare the blond from bringing down the entire wrath of Yang Xiao Long. Still she wasn't going to do that because one, she was a terrible liar and two she couldn't bring herself to lie to her big sister. So she went with the only alternative, telling the truth.

"Where were you?" Yang kept her tone in check trying not lose her temper.

"Okay sis I know you're angry with me but let me explain my reason for coming late. Me and Barry left the carnival at eleven twenty. Since we still had time I wanted to go to that ice cream parlor downtown, the one that is open late….?"

"She's right. The Ice Cream Palace located in the eastern section of downtown Vale is open after midnight" Weiss used her scroll to check the information in a way, she was making sure her partner was telling the truth.

"Okay so you went to have some ice cream with him. Still it doesn't explain why you arrived an hour and ten minutes late" the brawler crossed her arms her eyes were still red.

"I'm getting to that. I wanted to try the ultimate banana split combo with strawberry syrup and chocolate chips. It took them twenty minutes to make it, then it took like twenty more to eat it, I couldn't finish it completely so Barry gave me a hand."

"And what else did Barry gave you a hand in?" the blond was tightening her fists.

"Yang that sounded wrong" Blake interjected.

"Because its exactly as I'm saying it! Well...I'm waiting sis."

"After that we started talking. We talked about many things mainly about weapons and way to help me get faster. I had no idea we were there for so long, then I checked my scroll for the time and I was so scared. I noticed I had a missed call from you but I couldn't bring myself to call you."

"Why didn't you call me?"

"Because...I was so scared you were going to yell at me if I call you."

The brawler gave a sigh as her eyes turned back to normal" Ruby you're right I would have yell at you but in not calling me you only made me get more worried. I was asking myself "what if something bad happened to you?" "What if you and Barry were ambushed by Grimm or Torchwick?" You made a mistake and I understand you have to promise me you will never do that again. Next time keep your eyes on the clock and obey curfew young lady."

"Promise" she smiled happy that she was no longer in trouble with her older sister.

"And just like that she's off the hook" Weiss seemed amused.

"Can't help it if I have a soft spot for my sis" Yang mentally smiled.

"What's with the big teddy bear?" Blake asked staring at the big toy.

"Barry won it for me in one of the carnival games!" the silver eyed petite was very happy.

"Arf!" Zwei ran at the teddy bear and started jumping on it.

"Zwei seems to like it" the Schnee heiress smiled at how cute the small dog looked playing with the big toy.

"Speaking of that little coward where is he? I thought he will be a gentlemen and at least walked you to the dorm" Yang expected the speedster didn't came because he knew she was going to beat him up for returning her sister late.

"Barry couldn't walked me here because he said Professor Ozpin called him to his office."

"What a lame excuse he obviously didn't had the guts to face me, he knew I was going to punch his lights out."

"Oliver told me the same thing looks like the headmaster wants to talk to them about something" said the cat faunus.

"Whatever it is must be something very important if he called them to his office at this hour" pointed Weiss.

"Anyway it's late, team RWBY time for bed!" Ruby was about to head to the bathroom before her sister grabbed her by the shoulders.

"Not so fast sis, you haven't said anything about your date with Barry. How was it?" now the brawler was very eager to know how was her sister's evening in her first date.

"I must admit I'm curious to know" followed the white haired girl.

"Guys….?" it was impossible for the rosette not to smile remembering everything that took place on her date" I know you guys are dying to know the details but I'm tired, I want to shower, change these clothes and get to bed."

"Fair enough it is late after all" the heiress understood her partner's point.

"I promise I'll tell you guys tomorrow."

"Same with me" followed Blake not shy about telling them about her date with Oliver.

"Okay I get it, it's late and I am sleepy. But answer me this question sis" Yang got serious for a moment" are you still a virgin?"

Weiss and Blake were shocked while blushing and Ruby had the same expression but she followed by reacting different from her teammates.

"WWWHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTT!"

(Scene change)

Oliver and Barry were in the elevator that leads to the top of Beacon Tower where Ozpin's office was located. They just recently finished their dates and they were now on their way to visit the headmaster because they got a text message from him. According to the message he wanted to see them immediately because it was important. As usual Ozpin didn't give details of the situation or why he was calling for them, but they already knew one thing. Whatever he wanted to talk to them it must be a very important matter because it was almost one thirty in the morning. Both vigilantes remained quiet waiting to reach the designated top floor they weren't that bothered at the hour they were been called by the headmaster. The archer looked in thought he didn't know why but he had a bad feeling about this, about his reason for calling them.

"Any idea what Ozpin wants with us at this hour?"

"Not a clue" Oliver was honest he really didn't know.

"So" Barry wanted to make small talk before arriving at their destination" how was your date?"

"It was great Blake really enjoyed been in the boring fancy restaurant, and you?" the archer smiled remembering when his partner teased him of his choice of place for a date.

"Ruby had a lot of fun in the carnival, I mean we both had a lot of fun and…." the speedster smiled" I told her, she feels the same and we're together."

"Congratulations. Just remember Barry she's young don't go too fast with her."

"I know I know…."

"She's only fifteen."

"I know already. I told her that our relationship has to be slow and easy no rushing in, and she understands. I won't do anything to put our relationship in jeopardy."

"Wise choice I don't think Ozpin or any of the teachers of the school will approve of your sleeping with a fifteen year old student."

"I'm fast Oliver not stupid, before anyone finds out Yang would have already killed me and dug my grave" he rolled his eyes.

"That's pretty much true, always fear the older protective sister" the archer smiled as the elevator finally reached the top floor.

They left the elevator walking the straight corridor that leads to the double doors of Ozpin's office. The doors slid open revealing the office of the headmaster and it was quite a surprise for the vigilantes. Now they were expecting to see Goodwitch accompanying the man but they never expected to see General Ironwood and Qrow present as well. As soon as they entered Oliver's bad feeling started growing it was making him feel uneasy. What could Ozpin would want to discus with them that needed the presence of the General of the Atlas military and one of the strongest huntsman in Remnant? Their eyes were on the two vigilantes, their expressions were quite serious. It was strange to see Qrow all business like since they have gotten to see him joking and drinking hid ass off.

"Mr. Queen Mr. Allen welcome would any of you like some coffee?"

"It's all right I don't feel like drinking it" said Barry.

"No thanks" followed the archer.

"First of all I would like thank you both for coming under such short notice. I understand its late and you two have just returned from a date with two of our students" Ozpin kept his smirk hidden.

"Which is consider to be immoral and unethical" Goodwitch always pin pointing the cold truth.

"Is this the reason why you called us?" the speedster was starting to get nervous.

"Relax Barry it has nothing to do with you crushing on with my niece or Oliver crushing on with the faunus girl" said Qrow with a grin yet he kept his flask with him ready to take a drink.

"True this is a very important matter" replied Ironwood.

"I will take a guess it has to do with Torchwick, the White Fang or the Queen?" said the archer vigilante.

"I'm afraid its a different matter and like James said it is very important" Ozpin got up from his desk walking to gaze at the long crystal that was the window of his office, his eyes were on the kingdom city of Vale.

"What I'm about to tell you is top secret information that only the individuals present in this room knows about. You two will eventually know with the condition that said information must never leave this room, are we clear?" his tone was so serious it actually caused a shiver on the vigilante's spine.

"What is this information Professor Ozpin?" asked the speedster.

"You two have been part of this school for almost a year now. During that time I have come to trust you as the heroes that you are wanting to protect Vale and the rest of the kingdoms. We know of your origins, heroes from another world where you met your end to your life there and were sent to this world because of Fate."

"It was Doctor Fate to be exact" thought Oliver.

"Now I believe the time has come for you to know the secret history of our world. Part of Remnant that hasn't be told or taught to the students of this school or any of the schools in the four kingdoms for the matter."

"What could be this secret history that has kept hidden from the future huntsmen and huntresses of Remnant?" asked the archer.

The headmaster turned to the two heroes with a smile" Mr. Queen, Mr. Allen tell me, what is your favorite fairy tale?"

-DC SPOILERS SECTION-

Supergirl season 1- OMG the Flash made an appearance in this week's episode so cool I have become a shipping fan of Barry/Kara SuperFlash FTW

Flash season 2- This week's episode was very interesting with Barry traveling back to the past and now thanks Eobard Thawne he will become faster in order to stop Zoom. Also the episode itself explains how Barry ended up in Supergirl's Earth because his experimenting with the Tachyons including a new Tachyon device he had on during Supergirl's episode that Cisco probably built instead of traveling through time he ended up traveling to another world.

Arrow season 4: nothing to say much except that I don't like Felicity keeping a distance from Oliver. I understand her getting angry at Oliver for not telling her about his son William but she shouldn't be making him feel miserable I can't stand emo Oliver honestly.

Next time: Overdose
