A/N: I don't even known anymore. Why am I only productive at 9 pm? I don't know. Prompt from Halleydoedog on Tumblr.
Chapter 8: Laser Tag
"Oh no, Jaune, you can't escape me that easily!" Ruby shouted, cocking the laser gun that glowed red.
Jaune ran through the course, heart hammering fast beneath blue glowing armor. He was almost to base! So close! And then at the last second, he tripped on his shoelace, only to be shot in the chest by red-laser-toting Pyrrha.
"I'm sorry!" She called from the other side of the room.
Jaune sighed, walking out of the arena sadly.
…
Blake leaned against a wall, deciding to wait for her prey to present itself.
Hearing laughter, she fired a red beam at the wall, missing Yang by mere inches.
Using her semblance to narrowly avoid a blue beam from the shadows...but she was quickly shot in the back by Ren, who had waited for her to move.
Yang pointed to the exit, and Blake bitterly left.
…
"Pyrrha! Help!" Ruby called, as she was forced into a corner by Yang and Weiss.
"Sorry, sis." Yang smiled, taking aim at her. Just as she pulled the trigger, her equipment went dead.
Ruby looked around her sister to see Pyrrha aiming at Weiss next… But Weiss was too agile. She moved quickly, avoiding the beam so that Ruby caught it in the arm.
"Pyrrha!" Ruby yelled indignantly.
"Sorry!" Pyrrha said, surprise taking over her features when her own equipment went dead. "Aww." she said, walking past Ren towards the exit.
Weiss turned around, "Alright, Ren-" She was cut off by a red beam hitting her left arm, "Drat!"
Ren sighed, "Nora.." he turned around to face her standing in a corner.
"Boop!" she tapped his nose, "Ceasefire?" she asked innocently.
Ren looked at her; it wasn't like her to not be competitive, "Nora, the teams-"
Nora crossed her arms, "I don't wanna shoot you." She set her gun down. She outstretched her hand, "Truce?"
Ren smiled, "Nora-"
Nora practically tackled him in a hug, gently kissing him. He loosened his grip and put one hand on her waist. Wow, he thought, this is a bit unlike Nora, especially in public. Why is she-
The next few moments were a blue blur as Nora grabbed his laser gun out of his hand and shot his chest point blank.
Well, that's certainly my Nora. "Lesson number one! All's fair in love and war!" Nora marched off triumphantly, leaving Ren standing there wondering what in Remnant just happened.
