Chapter 21

The furious pounding on the door was only just as irritating to Sasuke as it was to Emert as Persia continued to bang on the door to the bathroom. It wouldn't have been nearly as bad if he was doing anything else at the moment, but Persia wanted something from him, even while he was taking a dump. Too bad for Emert and his sensitive nose on this one. He shouldn't have made them eat burritos last night. The poor guy slept with an air freshener by his face the whole night.

"I'm almost done," he called out.

"Well hurry up! The Princess wants to talk to you about something."

Sasuke sighed and ran a hand over his face. Persia had a low tolerance for those that hated other Faunus and Weiss was one of the worsts. Sure, she had a Faunus teammate that she seemed to care for, but not nearly as much as she did for others of her group. One could say that she spent more time with Ruby than she did Blake or Yang, as Sasuke could hardly remember a time where she didn't talk to either girl for prolonged periods of the day. In fact, if he were remembering things based on the time he spent around them, she had only ever spoken a grand total of about eighteen words to each girl.

"Okay…" He could see her shrugging her shoulders and leaving after that in his minds' eye. She had plans for today once class was over. She favored be punctual and maintaining good grades. If there was ever a person he could say was a clone of Sakura, it would be Persia in smarts alone. Finishing up, he washed his hands, brushed his teeth, and walked out. Sure enough, Weiss was in their room and trying to not stab the sleeping Emert that should have been up an hour ago. "Can I help you?"

"Yes," she turned to him and waved a hand in front of her face. "Preferably outside."

The former Uchiha looked over to his sleeping Faunus friend and then to Jasper as the man walked inside the bathroom and hastily shut the door. "Sure," he replied. "Let me wake up Emert first. He needs to get around."

"Why is not up yet? I thought he has a sensitive nose or something."

"He does." Sasuke grabbed the air freshener from beside his sleeping friends' face and shook him a few times. "Wake up! Time to get ready for class."

"Hjuhn poo tsluth raw," he slurred incoherently while rolling out of bed, horrifying Weiss in the process with his full nudity. She turned around sharply and focused on the door, and more importantly, freedom from the smell of human waste and full frontal male nudity. She prided herself on knowing the full anatomy of a man from a book and not seeing one or feeling up close and personal. She was too young for that. Emert made a whining noise as the stench hit him. "Oh god! Heightened sense of smell sucks worse than… well it's the worst!" He got to his feet, grabbed some boxers, and looked at the heiress. "You're future husband will look better than me, Weiss. I know it."

"Get dressed, take a shower, and get ready for class," Sasuke grumbled with a shake of his head. It was hard not to laugh.

"In that order?"

Sasuke erupted into a fit of chuckles at the question. Emert grabbed some clothes and made his way to the bathroom only to realize that Jasper was inside and he would have to wait. During which time, Sasuke and Weiss stepped outside and began walking towards their first class. "So what's up?"

"Is Naruto sexual active?"

Sasuke came to a complete stop to look and judge the heiress on her question and sanity. Weiss presented the question with a business-like expression of coldness and detachment from the subject at hand. Already the gears were turning his head as to why she would ask such a question. Naruto had a pretty simple understanding of females, so the idea of him making a move on Weiss was likely, but not something he'd do. Weiss already showed her feelings for him by way of berating him, dissing him, and flat out calling him stupid on several occasions. She even went to Ozpin on the notion that Naruto was not fit to be a teachers' assistant by any means, grounds that were a hundred percent true, but not one that Ozpin was willing to admit to.

But there was a flip side to that.

Naruto was understandably dumb when it came to understanding something as simple as being told off by any girl. Sasuke wasn't sure how many times he saw Sakura berate Naruto for not getting the memo that she hated him. She wanted nothing to do with him and he still kept going back to her. Even now with the threat of death looming over her if he returned he wanted to go back. Maybe that was why he wanted to go back? Have his mind read, see their conversation, check out Sakura's mind, see that it was true, and then ship her off to the executioners block. So if Naruto had suddenly take an interest in Weiss without his knowledge then bravo since that was a dead horse no one wanted to beat with a ten foot stick aside from Jaune, and even then, Jaune was begin to relent.

"Can I get some backstory on this?" he asked calmly.

Weiss huffed in annoyance as she glanced at her nails while explaining. "Ever since the White Fang rally, Blake has spent a lot of time in the library doing research on them. She wants to know what happened. We all do." She half lied there. No one knew about their secret operation over the weekend and she was going to keep it that way. She hadn't even finished going over all the information just yet, but she was getting a picture. A lot of other dust stores were being robed as well. Her father was going insane by the amount of money he was losing. As a result, Dust prices were now going through the roof. Before long they'd be higher than the average minimal wage worker. "But last night she said she went to the library and I went there to find her. She wasn't there. I returned to the dorm and waited with Yang. About one in the morning she showed up and confessed to being with Naruto."

"And you think they had sex?"

"She had the signs of it." Sasuke snorted. As far as he was concerned, Jaune had about as much a chance with Weiss as Naruto had with Blake. And if there was something there, his all-powerful eye sure couldn't see it. "You don't believe me? She walked in with a faraway look in her eye very familiar to someone when they've… done it." She stuttered and for a moment lost her composure.

"So you're basing this on a look? That implies you've had sex and know what it looks like because someone has pointed it out to you."

Weiss jabbed her finger in his chest and snarled at him. "I have not had sex. I am pure as the snow itself. I am a pure flower of innocence when it comes to that."

"Then how do you know what it looks like?"

"I…" Her eyes hardened and she started walking faster. Sasuke shook his head and followed her. "That's none of your business."

"Then it's none of your business on whether or not he's had sex."

"The two of them should not be together. For one, she's older than him."

"Oh here we go with the age thing again…" he muttered out loud. It always came back to that. Age. Age. Age. AGE! Why wouldn't this world be like theirs in just that field? That wouldn't hurt the world to have a few thirteen year olds out there running around slaying monsters and stopping crime or rescuing a cat from a tree. He did it. Kakashi did it. He was pretty sure Ruby already did it. The only person he knew that didn't do it was probably his brother because of how powerful he was. He never heard about those stories growing up. He wouldn't have liked them either. Another reason for why his world was just backwards, maybe. Or maybe it was an early sign that he was the one messed up in the head when all he wanted to hear for stories about his brother was his missions that took him all over the world to kill people.

"Age thing?" Weiss repeated. She slowed her pace to match his. That caught her attention.

Looking for a quick escape on the subject, he found none and answered it with a half lie. "Back home, where I'm from, it's a do or die kind of place. If you can fight, you're expected to fight. So people that can fight are often given special privileges for their age. You can kind of see it around here as well if you look really hard. Like those gifted students that are younger than us but still somehow end up here because they're either really smart or really skilled at what they do."

"That's not really the same as what you just freaked out on," Weiss pointed out accusingly.

Staring at her and wishing to shut her up, he changed topics. "So you haven't had sex and yet you know the look. That implies one of three things. You've seen someone in the afterglow of it, you've had sex and refuse to talk about it, or you actually have watched a real porno, not the fake stuff the industry puts out." Weiss stopped and pointed an accusing finger at him again. Her mouth moved, but nothing came out. "You strike me as someone too pure to have watched a porno, so that rules that one out. And you also don't act like you've had sex, otherwise you'd be more mellow." And that is the pot calling the kettle black. "Or, you've seen a family member after having sex. Given your age difference between yourself and your sister, I'd wager it was her."

Weiss turned and started walking. Sasuke followed.

"So it was your sister. You have to cover for her from your dad?"

"I'm not having this conversation." Sasuke grabbed her wrist and yanked her towards him hard. She punched him in the face but lacked and real strength to do nothing more than hurt her hand. "Let go of me!"

"You started this conversation. Now you're going to finish it. You can't just accuse someone of having sex. And even then, why does it matter? Who fucked who, when and where doesn't affect you at all! If I had sex with you right now, does it affect Yang?" Weiss opened her mouth to scream at him some more but he clamped a hand over her mouth to keep her quiet. "Exactly. It doesn't affect her." He released her. "If Naruto had sex with Blake, good for him. I'd actually congratulate him for finding a woman. Even if it was for a one night stand or a mistake. You know why? He had a shit life and the one girl he loved always hated him. He was too stupid to actually look for another girl. Saddest part of it all is that he was blind to the one girl that did love him, and as it turns out, they were just like your family."

"It's still wrong," Weiss argued, ripping her hand from his grip. "The age difference alone is wrong. She's about to be eighteen soon. He's what? Thirteen… maybe fourteen. There's a law against that stuff. Anyone dating someone younger than eighteen when the other person is older is considered a crime and can be considered a pedophile."

"I'm well aware of how that law works and believe me, he is too. But there are workarounds for it. Your father is a businessman. I'm sure you've seen workaround for problems like that. It's called not letting anyone know. Showing it only behind closed doors. That isn't uncommon, even here. Maybe once a week there is someone that is doing it openly and they suffer for it. Sometimes the parents' consent to it because they knew each other for a long time. Do you think if they started dating right now, Ozpin would throw the book at him when Blake turns eighteen? I highly doubt it!"

"So you'd allow her to take advantage of him?"

Ozpin is taking advantage of him for his skills and power. At this point I'd rather have him as a student here because he wouldn't be able to send him out on jobs like the last one. Sasuke wished he could tell her that but knew that in the end he couldn't and was content with that in some dark way. "Weiss," he rubbed the bridge of his nose, "do you think so little of him? Sure, he's an idiot. I could sit here all day and tell you all the stupid things he did when we were little, but I'm not going to waste a day away like that. Naruto might not be the wisest of people, but even he knows when he's being played. Trust me on that. He's good at reading people."

"Well he still shouldn't date someone like Blake."

"Why? Because she's a Faunus?" Weiss's eye twitched in fear. "I've known since the day I met her. I just don't care enough to regulate who he should and shouldn't date. Doing something like that is no better than what my family tried to do with my older brother when they wanted him to marry his cousin to keep the bloodlines we have intact. My blood is special, but it's not nearly as special as yours blood, I'm afraid." He grabbed her wrist and squeezed it tight. "Just because she's a Faunus doesn't meant she can't love a human. It's the same way for him. So if they do have something going on behind our backs, don't interfere."

"And why shouldn't I?"

Sasuke released her, his eye darkening. "Have you ever lost someone you want to bring back? Maybe they didn't die, but they were suddenly out of your grasp and you wanted them back so much that nothing else mattered? Naruto has also had this feeling of loneliness inside him that he would do anything to remove from himself. Have you ever really looked him in the eyes? Have you truly ever stopped to wonder what he hides behind his mask of joy? I've seen it once before. His loneliness is without equal. I thought I was once truly the loneliest person in the world until I met him. Born with nothing, kicked from the orphanage because he was a different, and treated like garbage from the day he was born, Naruto had never known anything other than the emptiness and sorrow. And I'm sure that if you look closely into the eyes of Blake you'll see the same thing."

"I have looked into her eyes!" Weiss snarled at him.

"Then you clearly missed what she hides behind them."

"And what about you? What do you hide behind your eye?"

"Disappointment, regret, sorrow, hatred, and a tinge of loneliness," he confessed sadly. Weiss didn't flinch under the power of his words. "I can see clearly what you hide behind your eyes. "I can see into your very soul. Make no mistake about that, Schnee." Sasuke walked past her. "And I wouldn't ask either of them about what kind of things they do in their spare time."

"What did you do with Blake last night?"

Naruto arched a thin brow as he waited in line to get lunch. There was one thing Naruto would claim to never miss out on, and that was free Ramen. As much as Velvet wanted him to stop eating it, he never would. Cute girl, but she ate more vegetables than he'd willingly eat in a life time. Maybe that was her bunny side poking through? Did Faunus actually do that? Did they have traits from their animal counterparts? Did that mean Blake would get curious about everything and like only fish? She ate his Ramen when it was fish.

Still, there was a more growing concern over their question. Sasuke would never be that direct when asking him a question. Usually Sasuke was sideways about his questions with him. This was straight and narrow, getting right to the point.

"And how are you this fine evening? That's good to hear. No. I'm not taking any strange jobs right now, Sasuke. Yes, I am looking forward to my hunting trip with Port." Naruto rambled off as he grabbed the delicious bowl of Ramen from the counter. Sasuke followed him with a sandwich and some chips, clearly unhappy with his less than stellar answer. "She came by to talk last night. Why do you care?" Naruto paused and glanced around the lively cafeteria before adding, "And how did you know she came by to visit me? Stalking me?" as he sat down.

Sasuke sat down in front of him, popping the top on his bottle of water as he answered him. "Weiss came by and visited me about it. Had other questions pertaining to the event of last night. Not that I really care, but a need to know had certainly arisen, given some culture differences between our area and this area."

"Why do you care?"

Sasuke took a long pull from his drink before answering with, "Culture differences," and going back to drinking his water. Naruto rolled his eyes. "Has Ozpin or anyone else talked to you about the laws of this place?" Naruto inhaled deeply through his nose, a gesture that Sasuke knew all too well. Naruto either had read up on the rules of this world and ignored them or hadn't read them, and simply didn't care about them either. Both options truly seemed reasonable given the situation at the moment. "Blake is seventeen, about to be eighteen."

"Yes. Because the subject of birthdays comes up so much in our conversations," Naruto confessed irritably. He slurped up some of the noodles while Sasuke gave him a withering glare. "Nothing happened. And again, why do you-Wait better question. Why does Weiss care?"

"Okay we'll change the subject. I just thought I'd bring it to your attention that Miss Stick Up Her Butt thinks something is going on between you. At least the law isn't against you if you decide to date her." Naruto coughed and nearly choked on his Ramen. Sasuke reached over and patted him on the back. "Hey are you okay?"

"…Yeah…" he coughed out. "Do you want me to date Blake or something?"

"What you do is whatever you want. I don't care. All I care about is that you be happy."

"Well I am happy." Naruto finished his food and got up to leave. "So what about you and Weiss?"

"What about her?"

Naruto snorted and walked off. He had things he needed to take care of before the day was out.

"You're going to town tonight?" Yang asked Blake.

The cat Faunus rolled her eyes at her partners' antics. She already knew about what was going on. Blake was going to town to get more ammunition for her weapons. Ruby was quick to believe her, but Weiss and Yang were less believing of the whole thing.

"Yes… I'm going there to do some shopping."

"Without us?"

"Do you really wanna go shopping with me?"

"Depends on what you're after."

Blake stared silently at her partner. Weiss was buffering her nails as she listened in for her cue to step in.

"Are you going for panties?"

"No."

"Drat," Yang snapped her fingers and gave her feline friend a big grin to show she was playing. "Oh well. I've already seen your panties." She purred and Blake felt a need to claw her face as a result. If she wasn't as tired as she was, she might actually have done. But she needed her strength for what she had planned for today. "So why the sudden need to go to town? They have most everything we need here."

"I need something from town that I don't to talk about."

"Is it the book?" Blake froze in place and Yang smirked. "It is, isn't it? Did they make another already?"

"It is not about getting a new book! Yang, just let me have some alone time."

"We have a bathroom for a reason."

"Yang!"

"What? We do."

Sighing, Blake hastily thought up a reason for why she needed to go town today. She couldn't openly state that there was a place not far out of the city that select members of the White Fang used as a hub for information. Rallies were one thing, this was different. Only high ranking members of the White Fang could gain access to it and only trusted and skilled members could guard it. It would have detailed plans on what they were up to and why they suddenly were robbing dust stores each hour of the night.

"Is it a hot date?"

"…Yes!" Blake nearly wanted to scream at Yang after she let those words slip. Weiss stopped messing with her nails long enough to look up from what she was doing and over to the hidden Faunus. Yang even stopped to smile even wider then before and practically bounce in place. "I just… want to be alone with… him… For the night… Okay?"

"I'm so happy for you!" Yang pulled Blake into a hug that nearly had the cat Faunus screamed in pain. Aura shielding was a great thing, even against people that had inhuman levels of strength. Setting her down, she jumped in place. "So who's the lucky guy? Or are you covering and it's a girl?"

"It's a guy." Blake wondered what Yang would have done.

"So who's the lucky guy?"

Blake stopped and looked at the ceiling. She was digging a pretty deep grave right now. She didn't want to drag them to a place that only she knew about and how their security worked on said place. They hardly ever updated their equipment at the places if it wasn't attacked, which given that no one truly knew of its existence meant it was hardly every attacked. Even the name they got it under belonged to a human, not a Faunus. They got it when things went south for the White Fang and they became what they are today.

She picked up her pace as Yang began to ask more questions on the matter. Blake tuned her out as she rounded the corner but that was when Yang grabbed her and gave her a toothy grin. "You will tell me right now who it is, or so help me, I'm following you over town."

The hidden Faunus got the message. Yang would stalk her to see where she was really going and then report it back to Ruby if it was a place she never said she was going.

Her eyes looked between the waiting Yang and the unhappy form that was Weiss. A few students passed them by and she took a deep breathe. No way would this backfire, right? "It's Naruto."

Yang released her and then looked to Weiss. The Schnee blinked, reached into her pockets and withdrew ten lien. "Told you!"

"I don't support their relationship." Weiss hissed through gritted teeth.

Blake took a calming breath and felt a moment of triumph. She could go uncontested now. No one would be watching her. She'd be free to go where she needed to and there would be no repercussions.

"Have you guys seen Sasuke?"

Blake's eyes snapped open and she felt her entire world go numb. Her head spun so hard to the left that she swore it spun around fully like an owls' before her gaze landed on the familiar whisker faced blond. If he spilled the beans she's be screwed and they'd know something was up.

Yang grabbed Naruto up in a tight hug that lifted him off the ground. "I'm so happy for you!" She sat him down and tapped his nose. "So how did it happen?"

Confused, Naruto scratched his head and said, "Well Sasuke walked around a corner while I was speaking to Port about the hunt we're going on and when I went to find him, he was gone. Can you help me find him? I really need to talk to him?"

"Not that you dolt!" Weiss hissed, finally having enough. She was out ten lien to this idiotic blond and his female counterpart. Thank god they weren't dating. The world would be doomed with their children throwing around puns and being hyperactive. Yang was hyper, sure, but Naruto was like hyper eating sugar and then that hyper sugar eater eating more sugar. The very thought of them procreating was just terrifying in Weiss's mind. "We're asking about how you two started dating!" She pointed from Blake to himself.

Naruto's head slowly craned to Blake's and she offered a sheepish smile. Blinking, he glanced back to the heiress and said, "I got her some yarn to play with," as though he were unsure of himself. Yang's grin nearly split her face in two with how wide it got. She threw her head back and laughed hard enough to lose control of her legs and fall flat on her back in the middle of the hallway. "Why do you care?"

Weiss stepped around the laughing blond girl and poked Naruto in the chest. "So then why are you going out with her into town tonight when classes are tomorrow? We have one more day of class before the weekend?"

"I booked it for today because they didn't have any other spots opened until next weekend," Blake lied smoothly. Naruto looked to her for a moment and then to the unbelieving Schnee. "You're just mad that I have a boyfriend before you do." Weiss's face became as red as Ruby's hood at the jab. "Now if you'll excuse me, I need to talk to my boyfriend in private." She grabbed his shirt and pulled him away. Yang hadn't even managed to recover from the earlier joke and was now left in Weiss's capable hands.

"Sorry about that," Blake confessed as she released him. Naruto blinked and looked at his shirt where she had been holding. He smoothed it out. "I'm going into town and I needed a cover story."

"Why?"

"I just do, okay?"

"Well I'm involved now." Naruto jabbed a thumb in the general direction of the girls. Blake could hear Weiss berating a laughing Yang still. She was trying to get her up so they could return to their dorm and start homework. "I know a lot more than you seem to think I do," he told her. She froze and stared at him. "I'm not stupid. Not as stupid as I seem. So where are we going?"

Blake's gaze softened. "To an old hideout."

A/N

And that's that chapter. This chapter was one that was partially done a while back and I just needed to get to it. So that's why this chapter sort of came out pretty fast from the last update. I just had other projects that I was working on that sort of got in the way of completing this chapter sooner.

That said, one of the other projects should be out soon, hopefully by tonight, and its another Naruto RWBY story with a different style to it. Like I've always said, I write what I wanna read and I've yet to find a story like what that one is that I'm working on as well.
