"You wanna run that by me again," Sun said.
He and Ruby had managed to sneak from Glynda's classroom all the way to a secluded corner in the courtyard without getting spotted by Yang or Neptune.
"Like I said, The Vale Amusement Park, it's the perfect place," Ruby said excitedly.
"And what makes it so great?" Sun asked a bit confused.
"Cause Yang would never set foot in that place,"
"Why?"
"Cause she hates the mascot there,"
"The mascot? You mean that chipmunk guy?"
"Yeah, Curly the Chipmunk. Yang hates chipmunks with a passion,"
"Really? Of all things chipmunks?"
"Yeah, one day when we were younger our Uncle Qrow was watching us we were out in our backyard playing around. We had found a chipmunk's nest up in our treehouse and we needed to get him out because he was really mean. We tried to get our uncle Qrow to help us but he was already passed out on the couch so we came up with our own plan,"
"I thought you said your uncle was watching you," Sun said
"No, I said he was 'watching' us," Ruby said
"What's the difference?"
"Well one way is where someone would maintain eyesight of who they are watching. The other way is where we promise uncle Qrow not to burn anything burn while he sleeps and he gives us candy later," Ruby explained
"That doesn't sound very-,"
"Sun, let me finish my story,"
"Yang put on a pair of gardening gloves and a mask, and I grabbed an old pillowcase. The plan was for Yang to grab him and put him in my pillowcase and then we would release him into the woods somewhere. The plan was working up until the point where Yang was about to grab the chipmunk, from that point on the plan went downhill. You see when Yang actually tried to pick up the chipmunk the little guy instead ran up her arm,"
"Oh my gosh!" Sun exclaimed
"Sun don't interrupt. That's rude,"
"It ran right past her face and straight into her hair. The next few minutes were utter chaos as Yang rolled around on the floor trying to get him out, I stood there scared and confused about what to do. Eventually Qrow heard Yang and came running out and up into the treehouse and saw Yang rolling on the floor."
"You just stood there the entire time?"
"Sun, I'll never finish this story if you keep interrupting me,"
After a while he got her to calm down but by then the chipmunk had gotten so tangled in Yang's hair that the only way to get him out was to cut him out. This hurt Yang more than the chipmunk did, but she let Qrow get the scissors and cut him out. Luckily for her Qrow was actually pretty skillful with scissors considering he was drunk at the time."
"Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah. You're uncle was drunk when he was cutting your sister's hair?"
"Yeah. So?"
"Isn't that, I don't know, kinda dangerous?"
"What. No. Uncle Qrow is used to being drunk,"
"He's used to being drunk?"
"Yeah,"
"How does someone get used to being drunk?"
"I don't know, but he manage to do it," Ruby said with a shrug. "Either way back to the story, so after Qrow had finished cutting Yang's hair she was still in tears, and I was still scared so Qrow decided to start baking cookies. After a little bit the smell of cookies managed to calm me and Yang down and we helped Qrow clean up the kitchen and eat the cookies. The whole experience was kinda funny but Yang was never able to stay calm around chipmunks again."
"Ruby that was a very interesting story," Sun said with a laugh.
"Yeah, I know, but it is a wonderful coincidence for us," Ruby said cheerfully.
"Alright, so we know where to go but how are we going to get there?" Sun asked
"Well, I'd imagine that we would take an airship into Vale and then take a taxi to the park, the only problem is that, even though Yang wouldn't follow us into the park she would try and stop us from getting there and I have no idea about Neptune," Ruby said
"Well, I'm sure I can get Sage and Scarlet to keep Neptune busy all day Friday, and didn't you say that Weiss and Blake would be willing to help?"
"Yeah they did, we can definitely get them to distract Yang,"
"Great, I'll tell Sage and Scarlet, you go tell Blake and Weiss,"
"Alright, I can't wait," Ruby said as she ran off towards the dorms.
Sun watched Ruby for a moment before going to off find Sage and Scarlet. The only places Sun could think of that the two quieter members of his team would be was either the library or the training room. Sun decided to head to the library first.
After a short walk Sun arrived at the Beacon library and inside he saw Scarlet over in one of the armchairs reading a book.
"Hey Scarlet, whatcha reading?" Sun said sitting down the chair opposite of his friend.
"Oh, it's just a book Blake suggested," Scarlet said holding The Man with Two Souls.
"It's about a man with two souls and how each one struggles to-"
"Yeah, yeah that's super interesting," Sun said impatiently
"What do you need Sun?" Scarlet asked
"I'm glad you asked," Sun said "I need you and Sage to distract Neptune all day Friday,"
"Why?"
"Cause I'm trying to take Ruby on a date but Yang and Neptune won't leave us alone,"
"Speaking of Neptune, have you seen him today?" Scarlet asked
"No I haven't, and to be honest that's a bit worrying but if it gives me time away from him I don't mind it," Sun replied
"Alright then," Scarlet said "Yeah sure I do what I can to distract Neptune tomorrow,"
"Awesome, thanks Scarlet, you are the best," Sun said jumping up from the chair and started heading towards the door
"Just remember Sun you owe me!" Scarlet shouted as Sun left the library
"Alright now I just need to get Sage involved," Sun then jogged over to the training hall where he found Sage practicing on some dummies
"Hey Sage can I ask you a favor?" Sun asked walking into the room
"Sure. What is it?" Sage said leaning his large sword against the wall
"Do you think on Friday you could help Scarlet distract Neptune so me and Ruby can go on a date?"
"Yeah sure," Sage said "But only if you promise to help me with something later,"
"Yeah, totally, what do you need help with?"
"Don't worry about it right now, I'll tell you later," Sage then picked up his sword and started hitting the dummy again.
Meanwhile back in the team RWBY dorm room Ruby was having less success in convincing Weiss to help out.
"Come on Weiss we need your help," Ruby pleaded
"No you don't," Weiss replied "Blake should be enough to distract Yang,"
"But it would be better with more people," Blake said "And besides if Yang manages to ruin this date Ruby and Yang are going to be fighting for weeks and you won't be able to get any work done,"
Weiss let out sigh and pinched the bridge of her nose "Fine, I'll help but Ruby you have to do my laundry for a month,"
"Deal," Ruby jumped up and wrapped Weiss in a hug "Thank you so much Weiss,"
"Ruby get off me," Weiss said struggling to push Ruby down.
Else where in the school. "And that kids, is how I managed to singlehandedly destroyed an entire beowulf pack,"
Yang and Neptune were they only students in the entire room.
"Hopefully my invigorating tale was able to help you understand the importance of not skipping class," Port said to the two students "Now have a good day,"
Yang and Neptune gathered their stuff and quickly left the classroom.
"I can't believe he made us stay all afternoon," Neptune whined
"Yeah, it sucks," Yang said "Aw who knows what Sun and Ruby were doing without us supervising them,"
"I'm not too worried, I mean neither one of them are the smartest,"
"Yeah, I know, but I just have a feeling that we are going to have a bad time soon," Yang said
