Weiss Reacts to Aliens Among Us, Part 1!

A/N: Welcome, one and all, to Weiss Reacts, and the second day of our Emergencefest! This time, we'll be featuring the interquel to Emergence, Aliens Among Us! And hopefully it'll be less of a fail than last chapter, although I doubt it! Something! I dunno. I'm babbling now. Too much Volume 3 hype. Anyway!

More thanks to Chris7221 for letting us cover his work, again, and let's get on with the chapter!

DISCLAIMER: RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth, otherwise all of that team that faced team SSSN last episode would be in maid outfits.

Aliens Among Us belongs to Chris7221.

All mentioned franchises and characters belong to their respective owners.

"So, this fic's the interquel to Emergence." Ruby noted, reading the blurb to the next story in the fanfic binge team RWBY had spontaneously decided to undertake. "…heeeeey, we're not aliens! We look like normal people!"
"I dunno." Blake shrugged. "I think my ears might be a bit unusual on a world with no Faunus. Or my golden eyes."

"And purple eyes might come off a little weird…." Yang pointed out.

Weiss frowned, shaking her head. "…did they dye my hair before they did that? I'm not sure they did. I'm sure if they gave you contacts, they gave me hair dye."

"Don't think they did."

"….white hair isn't that common….." The heiress muttered. "This is…..not good."

Blake scoffed dismissively. "You think that's not good? Check our names that they gave us."
"…..Ruby Jones? Huh." The reaper nodded, approving of the alias. "That fits. I guess. I don't know why, but it fits."

"…Anna Weiss. Fair enough." Weiss nodded slowly. "I would rather a more…..fitting name, like Angela, or Lieselotte, but…."

Blake shook her head. "…the name Bella just…..brings back bad, bad memories. That was a very, very irritating day.

And couldn't have they been more imaginative? At least Ruby's sounds different enough, my name's literally just my names in reverse order with the –donna part removed!"

"Heh. Beth wasn't feeling it then either. I mean, she had to clean that up, didn't she? Nora did leave a huge mess with her mom's railgun…." Yang reminded them, chuckling, before staring at her own name. "….Linda Anderson.

…why do I get the most boring name?! At least Ruby…..might be named after her voice actress, and Blake gets a cool name! I get the boring one! Why can't I be named, like, I dunno…Sabrina, or something?! Or, hell, a pun on my voice actress's name!"
"That's what you take issue with?!" Weiss snapped, glaring at her. "And what's wrong with my name?!"

Ruby looked to both of them. "Heeeeey, guys, let's quit arguing, and let's read the fic before we whine about names, kay?"
"Sounds like a plan, but I protest being given a boring name…." The brawler huffed and pouted, crossing her arms as Weiss shook her head, pinching the bridge of her nose.

"You're the oldest girl on the team and you act like a five year old. Have I ever told you that?"
"Do you want a chronological list?"

"That's not a good thing if we can make a chronological list." The heiress muttered irritably.

New Arrivals

"How dare he say my sister is not cute in a 'hot romance way'?!" Yang screeched, looking offended. "I'll show him cute…."
Weiss grumbled. "I'd rather you don't. And I'd rather he doesn't find Ruby cute like that, thanks. I'm not sharing."

"Awwww….." The reaper giggled. "You want to keep me all for yourself now, do you?"

"N-not what I said!" Weiss cried, blushing slightly. "D-don't get the wrong idea!"

Yang pumped her fist. "Yesssss, I'm probably the super-hot girl that he's talking about. Damn straight, my sexiness is universal!"

"…tch. These fools." Weiss scoffed, looking disgusted at the people daring to talk down to her. "If it wasn't for the fact I was trying to stay hidden, I'd beat some sense into their thick skulls. Tch."

"And I am the sexy girl!" The brawler declared triumphantly. "Yes! All hail oppai! Gaze upon these puppies, boys~"
"A boxer, really? ….good Dust, you narcissistic moron." The heiress grumbled, shaking her head.

"You're just jealous that I have-"
"I HAVE AN ADEQUATE CHEST!"
"I was going to say admirers." Yang completed her sentence, grinning. "Get your mind out of the gutter, princess~"
Weiss stared at her angrily, clenching her fists, unable to respond to the comeback.

Yang was far too good at pushing her buttons.

Lunch Break

"Pretentious, rich, entitled idiots." Weiss looked down, irritated. "Yes. Very funny. I'm amused. Ha. Ha."

Yang snorted. "Sounds about right. You're pretentious AND rich. Entitled, I'll give you."
"I'm still amused."

Blake stared at the screen. "And Yang rejected someone? After they liked her body?"
"Hey! I'm not that kind of girl! Well, okay, maybe I am." The brawler admitted, shrugging. "But, you know, if there's anyone I'd go out with, it's the smart ones. The dumb ones don't listen. I dunno. Maybe I find smart people attractive.

The smart ones are the ones who're always by your side, a little quiet, a little determined…..always good with, I dunno, computers…."
"You mean like Blake?" Weiss noted, causing the catgirl to stare at her in surprise.

"W-Weiss!"

"Eh…..not…..necessarily." Yang hesitated for a moment. "I mean, it…..kinda could be. But…..not necessarily."

'That's complete bull. I know.'

Ruby snickered. "Otacon? Seriously, of all the things he could get otaku mixed up with, Otacon?! That's arguably just as geeky as being an anime fan if you know who he is!"
"First dibs. Yeah. I'm way out of your league, jock-wannabe." Yang snorted dismissively. "I'll take the guy who knows who I am, thanks. He seems to have a little brain in his skull, unlike Mister Musclebound over there."

Afternoon

"…yeah, I don't think coming from another country excuses poor spelling." Weiss muttered. "If you're going to use a name, learn what it is or you just look plain foolish."

Weiss sighed. "Twilight jokes. Well, there's worse jokes, I suppose."
"See, I'm putting money on this Aaron guy figuring us out." Yang snapped her fingers, clapping. "That guy, he knows. He knows."

Blake looked to the side wistfully. "I know how that feels….."

"…..did you say something?" The brawler looked over to her, raising an eyebrow.

"Nothing."

Ruby clapped. "That sounds like heaven. I regret not taking Dust Engineering this year…."
"If you weren't so obsessed with weapons, maybe you'd have remembered to!" Weiss snapped, causing Ruby to laugh nervously.

"…and brain or co-how vulgar! I would never use such language! Even if some moron was irritating me and accosting me about coming straight out of a TV show he's watched!"

Yang blanched at the mention of having to do maths. "…..why."

"I'm not that bad at maths." Blake mused. "I can do enough."
"Yes, not bad. Not bad enough to make those blasted button cameras and giant stupid robots you troll us with!" Weiss snapped.

First Day Done

"YANG!" The heiress growled. "WHY?!"
"Hey, if the snow angel's cursing, then pigs be flying!" Yang shrugged, giggling.

Ruby frowned. "…I think I'd do alright."
"Formal education? I can do my own research." Blake scoffed.

Yang looked down. "Yeah, you're going to have to teach me. They're spot on about me being bad at maths."
The heiress stared at her, raising an eyebrow. "You're bad at everything."
"Let me have some pride, Weiss!"

"You have far too much of it as it is!"

Game Day

"This reminds me of all the times we've watched our friends do matches against other schools." Weiss mused. "…also, what kind of a fool separates sport by gender?"
"It's a weird world." Blake pointed out. "….and Yang'd be the best cheerleader."
The brawler shrugged. "Can't deny it. I'm just that cheery~"

"….I could see this going horribly wrong in our world." Ruby noted. "I mean, I know how this sport works, but this kind of football would just…..you know, what with Semblances and Aura and-"
"It would be an absolute mess." Weiss completed for her.
"Yes! That!"

"…..I never did understand why they called it 'football'. There's an actual sport that's been called football for centuries before that, and they have the gall to rename that to soccer?" Weiss remarked, looking offended. "Tch, how ignoble a fate for such a sport."
"You like sports?" Blake looked over at her, curious.
"No, I hate the idea that a sport with almost no actual footwork is called football."

"…oh, seriously? I decided to go out with that guy?" Yang looked annoyed. "That's just…..that's disappointing."

All Hallows Eve

"Trick or treating. Well, I guess I'm not surprised." Weiss sighed. "No matter how old you are, you're still Ruby."

The reaper chuckled, rubbing the back of her head. "Hehehe….candy's nice."

"…..if parties on that Earth are anything like hours, they'd better be prepared for property damage." The heiress remarked. "Thank Dust Nora's nowhere near there."

"Apparently she ends up on Earth after Convergence." Blake pointed out.

"…Earth is doomed."

"Hot girls in anime outfits? Damn straight." Yang winked. "If I do say so myself, I could probably rock a Mami outfit…..Blake might be able to rock a Lust costume, too…."
"Don't imagine me in something like that!"
"Relax! It's just a dress, good Dust. Have you even watched the show?"

"…..we failed to buy anything of note." The heiress sighed. "As expected. Well, hopefully we aren't entirely doomed for costumes."
"My dress is purple." Blake grumbled.

"Doomed." Weiss repeated emphatically. "Absolutely doomed."

Party Time

"Like I said, always." Weiss sighed, shaking her head and smiling. "Ruby…."
"We missed it this year, though." Ruby frowned. "Stupid assignments, you made me miss out on Halloween cookies…."

"Sexy Riding Hood? I'll rock that, thanks." Yang chuckled. "Also, Daenerys? Weiss? Really? Dany?"

The heiress paused, staring at her teammate confusedly. "…..who?"
"Gah. Screw it. You wouldn't get it anyway."

"…a drunk moron trying to hit on me." Blake rolled her eyes. "I'd make him grit his teeth for that one."

Yang scoffed. "….I wouldn't kill him. I'd…..probably muck him up a little, not kill him. I'm not that out-of-control."

"Oh, good Dust." The heiress grumbled. "We're all drunk. This reminds me of that stupid King's Game…."

"That was fun!" Yang remarked, remembering the party. "I mean, we got autographs from freaking Risette, come on!"

"We also made ourselves look like fools in front of an international idol, not to mention the general public."

"Eh, we make ourselves look like fools in front of people all the time! She knows how it works, she was the one who suggested it to her friends!"

"NO EXCUSE!" Weiss snapped.

Blake clapped slowly at Yang's reaction to being questioned about her origins. "Lying by hiding in plain sight. Smooth."

"I have my moments of brilliance." The brawler declared, smirking. "And I was drunk!"
Weiss rolled her eyes, scoffing. "That Yang thinks better drunk than you do sober."

After The Fall

"I'd hit that." Yang remarked. "I dunno. Maybe geeks really appeal to me. I'd still prefer to be treated like a person though…."

Blake nodded in assent. "He could learn a lesson from us meeting Fire Emblem characters. And just call me Blake if you're that insistent! That sounds far better than Bella!"

"Schnee Heiress Embarrasses." Yang giggled. "I'd pay for that headline."

"Of course you would." The heiress gave her a disdainful look. "And I'd assume you wouldn't care about a similar headline for yourself?"
"I'd be a legend if I got that!" The brawler declared audaciously. "You kidding?"

"….mansion. Mansion." Ruby thought carefully. "…..you live in one, right?"
Weiss nodded in confirmation. "The Kreuzelburg, yes. Why?"
"…..wasn't it trashed when your dad and granddad…..you know….fought?" The reaper inquired, carefully trying to tread around the context of the fight itself.

"…..we had it repaired." The heiress responded, nodding slowly to Ruby. "It wasn't bad enough, even if the fight supposedly blew out half the side of the castle."

Yang blinked at the cavalier attitude to millions of Lien in property damage. "…..good Dust."
"It did take a huge chunk from our family's fortune, but it was fixed eventually. And hopefully what caused it all forgotten." Weiss continued, looking slightly troubled for a second, before shaking her head and forgetting the thought.

Ruby had a guilty expression on her face. "I'm sorry I-"

"No, it's fine. You have the right to bring it up, Ruby. And I shouldn't hide from it." The heiress shook off her apology, smiling at her. "Besides, we beat him, did we not? It should be forgotten. It's the past."

Yang smiled. "Of course. Now, let's get on with this, yes?"

Two Weeks

"Pancakes and eggs. Huh." Yang nodded approvingly. "Sounds like the perfect breakfast."

Ruby frowned. "You know, about this whole expensive….expenses, thing, maybe we could take up jobs?"
Weiss scoffed, shaking her head. "Yang, take a job? She'd get fired."
"You know I actually work, right?" The brawler retorted.

"…you know, I'm curious now." Blake nodded slowly. "Where do you get all your money from?"

"…I'm not telling you where I work." The brawler remarked, winking. "That's for you to find out~"

"Awww….." Ruby giggled. "This Connor guy likes me. I think. If he does, I dunno if it's on the romance side or not."
"Hopefully not, otherwise Weiss here might get a little jealous~" Yang remarked, chuckling.

"Be quiet."

Lest We Forget

"Remembrance Day on Earth is quite like our own Day of the Fallen…." Weiss noted, poring over the chapter content. "Equally as sombre, too."

Blake nodded slowly. "The similarities are pretty clear…..it seems some things never change, no matter what world we're talking about."

The Day of the Fallen was a Valean day of remembrance, established to remember all the Hunters who had died in service to the kingdom- Ruby's mother among them. The day usually consisted of a moment of silence across the kingdom as a ceremony, presided over by the ruling council, who usually provided a speech asking everyone to remember fallen comrades in the service of the defence of the realm. The day also had a feast at the end, to celebrate the achievements of past Hunters; after all, the fallen Hunters usually fell in some epic battle, defending their homeland, and their achievements deserved to be commemorated as much as their deaths mourned.

This was the day of the year Ruby usually went out to visit her mother's grave, apart from the days before the Vytal Tournament or anything significant.

All four girls remained silent, nodding slowly before moving over to the next chapter.

Learning

"Poor boy." Weiss remarked. "Ruby, as much as I love you, you are far too hyperactive for your own good."

Ruby pouted, whimpering. "B-but…."

Weiss blinked. "I'm not that icy! Even if that moron keeps calling me a fictional character. How rude! I should have a word with the author about this!"

"I dunno. You're pretty intolerant of morons." Yang pointed out. "I mean, you hate dunces enough to keep hitting them."
"I hit you to stop you from saying stupid perverted things. There's a difference."

"Screwed up kids from a bad household. One out of two isn't bad." Blake quipped. "…..although my father's quite kind."

"Oh, yeah, you barely speak with Ysengrim…." Yang remembered, nodding. "When'd you last talk with him?"
"A few days ago, on the phone." The catgirl replied. "We just….talked, I guess. I dunno. Maybe he knows I can take care of myself now.

Not that I don't miss him, sometimes….."

"…oh, are you serious?!" The heiress snapped. "You write a story about myself and your sister. Of course."
Yang shrugged nonchalantly. "Hey, write what you know, so they say."

"…..Crimson Flowers?" The reaper inquired, looking at her sister strangely. "That's even worse than Linda Anderson."
"…..s-shut up, I'm not that creative!"

All Expenses Paid

"Eh. I've been on enough jets. I can safely say airships are better." Weiss commented, after thinking carefully.

Yang shuddered. "I'm not liking this. This seems waaaay too much like those old movies where they get aliens and cut them open….."
"Yang, you managed to kill their world's versions of terrorists with several punches. If they wanted to dissect you, they'd have to try harder." Weiss pointed out. "…..and….well, that's disappointing. They're attempting to load our weapons with substitute ammunition.

….if I'm not mistaken, that might not be so advisable, although then I'd be criticising Crescent Rose's craftsmanship."

"I made Cress perfect!" Ruby cried in protest.

"So we're apparently genetically the same to Terrans except for me, and I'm apparently literally part-cat." Blake noted, before sighing. "…..well, I can't say I'm surprised."

Weiss started looking more interested at the end of the chapter.

"So, if we weren't tough enough, we wouldn't have survived our trip to this alternate Earth? That's…..well, logical, considering where myself and Yang were….."

Shooting For The Stars

"Moon rocks? Pfft. I can get that anytime." Blake scoffed.

Ruby frowned, crossing her arms. "But it's not the same."

"Inhale enough moon dust and you apparently go insane. Or so they say." Yang mused to herself.

"Ha. Ha." Blake gave the brawler a shifty look. "Funny joke about aliens."
"Well, we are technically aliens…I mean, all those old movies basically had people in rubber suits as aliens. We're not any different, except we're cuter and I'm sexier~"

"So our homeworld's a different planet here?" Weiss inquired, curious. "Huh. That means one could fly to space and visit it, in theory. That makes the theories about how we ended up on that planet, with people who look almost like us, even more complicated…."

"Interstellar? Eh." Yang shrugged. "It's a good film."
The reaper looked over at her, her mouth open in a small 'o' shape. "…..can we watch it? Can we watch it?!"
"…not now, I want to save up for something." The brawler declined. "I want to save up for the new Fire Emblem game, dammit, I'm psyched for it! And also because Reflet and I made a bet about who'd beat the game first with Nohr and Hoshido. She wants Nohr, I want-"

Weiss rolled her eyes. "Yes, your bet with a woman who lives on the other side of a dimensional wall is very interesting, now can we read this fanfic, please? It's one of the few I've found that isn't stupid and perverted, so I'd like to read it!"

From The Other Side

"…..yeah, I'd be a little irritated if I had some idiot calling me a fictional character." Blake admitted.

Yang pouted. "…all that trauma turned me from being awesome to being not so awesome. Boring."

"And Ninjas of Love is art! Not smut!" The catgirl cried, blushing at the implication.

Weiss grumbled. "Art does not entail indecent acts involving trees, a pixie and a frustrated wizard, Blake."

"Y-you need to have a certain knowledge to appreciate it right!"

"...he'd still better not be trying to go out with Ruby." Weiss muttered. "I'll just have to give him a slap around the head."
The brawler giggled. "You're jealous of a fanfic character."
"Be quiet!" The heiress snapped in response, giving her an irritated glare. "I am not! And good Dust, I am not that cold! I feel misrepresented by this story!"

"Huh? Me? Not like girls?!" Yang gasped, horrified. "W-what kind of weird screwed up psycho world did I come from?!

And you don't need muscles to like girls, you weirdo! Weiss doesn't and she has a girlfriend!"

"One where you're hopefully nothing like a dog in heat." Weiss remarked without missing a beat. "And what are you implying about my physical strength, Xiao Long?!"

"I'm implying you're built like a twig."
"And you're built like a barrel!"

Ruby sighed, shaking her head as her girlfriend and sister began squabbling again. "Oh, good Dust."
"I feel sorry for you." Blake rubbed her shoulder. "You're caught in the middle of all of this."
"Yeah…..I love them both, but they can get a little overbearing…." The reaper admitted, looking a little awkward as her teammates continued hurling vitriol at each other.

To be continued….

A/N: Chapter count: 15/39

Next chapter, the other chapters and then, hopefully, Convergence! Excellent!

So, I hope you enjoyed that, leave your ideas, suggestions, criticisms, reviews, thoughts and comments, and I hope you have a GREAT day! Until next time!
