Hey guys! Here is chapter 27, and we are going to take a look into how Yang can afford all she spends. I am going to put this chapter out, and one more after this, then it's time for the CHRISTMAS SPECIAL! So that is something to look forward to. pretty small footnote (if you could call this a footnote), aside from that giant CHRISTMAS SPECIAL, so lets get right into it.

"Okay, I so have, lets see, 10 items already, did you want anything from here Blake?"

"Oh, did you get that one that I pointed out?"

"Yep. I'm going to go order all this then."

Yang had been in the middle of her planning. She made somewhat frequent orders from the catalogs she subscribed to.

"Yang, are you sure you can afford all that?"

"Of course I am, Weiss. I made sure I have enough."

"Speaking of which, how do you plan on paying for this? I am not giving you money anymore, at least not nearly enough for this."

"Well, I have my own ways of getting my own money."

"And what ways would that be?"

"Um, Yang, you don't do, anything like 'that' to get money, do you?"

"Anything like that? What? I don't... Ohhhhhh. No! Nothing like that!"

"Oh thank god."

"I am a little insulted you would think that, Weiss. Though with all the bank I make all the time it isn't hard, so I can't really blame you."

"So, how do you get all this money, and if you have a lot of money, why did you use mine when you spent too much a few days ago?"

"Well, I am not one to turn down free money. And can you keep a secret?"

"Yes, why?"

"Alright, this is how I get my money. Flashback!"

"..."

"What are you-"

"I said FLASHBACK!"

"What are you doing Yang?"

"Damn it Narrator, do your job!"

"Who are you talking to Yang?"

Okay, okay, I will do the flashback, calm down.

4 DAYS AGO

"I'm not sure why I let you talk me into coming with you to get drinks every week, Yang."

"Because you luuuuuvve me."

"Yea, I do."

Blake and Yang had just got to their normal club (Which just so happen to be Juniors club, the only one they ever go to), they took up their seats at the bar, got their first rounds, and took their drinks. Yang knew Blake wasn't the best with holding her liquor, but she also knew Blake rarely drank to her own limit. Blake always had to keep herself stable, because Yang would drink way too much 9 times out of 10.

"Okay, Yang, I think, I think I had enough."

"Can you walk?"

"What is a walk? I think I can walk."

Blake stood up on unsteady legs, she managed to stabilize herself, and walked out with Yang.

Yang led Blake through the streets. Blake thought they were going home, but it turned out that they went to a seedy part of town known as the Gamblers District. It was home to any form of gambling, card games, slot machines, craps, roulette, you name it. This was the only place in all of Vale that allowed gambling, and was also the part of town that had many other illegal types of dealings.

"Oh, we must have taken a wrong turn somewhere, silly me. Well, while we're here, why don't we make a few bets somewhere."

"Well, Yang, Maybe, I don't think, We, should definitely do that."

Damn, Blake is more drunk than usual this Friday.

"Here lets sit down at this table."

"Hey Yang! Come to try your luck again another night eh?"

"The day I stop testing my luck is the day I stop breathing, you know that Bobby."

"Yea, that's good old Yang for ya. So, same bet as normal?"

"That's the one."

Yang knew how this worked, she had done it many times. She took Blake to go out, Blake got blitzed, she took her here, she made the first few bets, and let Blake's own gambling problem take its course. Every Friday they came here, Blake never remembered a thing the next morning, and Yang always came up a few hundred dollars richer. Tonight was no different, well, aside from the fact that they made a lot more than just a few hundred.

"Alright, you cashed out about $100 bucks so far Yang, not doin as hot as usual today?"

"My luck apparently hasn't been good to me lately."

"Hey, why don't you use this last small bet, and play that machine over there."

Bobby, her friendly Blackjack dealer, pointed towards an isolated machine. It wasn't too special, had all the same bells and whistles as any other machine there.

"Whats so special about that one?"

"They say it has never payed out before, and the Jackpot on it is at something like $3000 right now. More people would try for it, if they ever even won their bets back. Everyone is afraid of it, since it will suck you dry if you keep tryin it, but you just got one left, so how bout a go? can't be too bad."

"Whats your call, Blakey?"

Yang knew that while Blake may have had a gambling problem, she still had a good nose for machines and tables that payed out. Blake didn't respond in words, only taking the last bet, and sticking it in the machine and sitting down at it.

"I take it that's a yes."

The wheels went spinning, turning and turning. They thought it wouldn't stop, and that the machine finally kicked the bucket, until the first wheel made an abrupt stop, with a loud cling.

"1 Super 7."

cling

"2 Super 7's!"

The last wheel kept going like a broken record, still not stopping. After a few seconds it finally made its stop.

cling

"3 Super 7's, we won the jackpot! Woohoooo we're gonna be loaded!"

"I may not be able to walk on my own and think right now, but, ummm, where was I going again? Oh, yea, but I know my gamblin."

"Yes you do Blakey, now lets cash this in!"

The cashier reluctantly handed over the check for $3100. He has seen the two many times, and knew that every time they left richer than when they walked in.

PRESENT DAY

"So you two do this every Friday?"

"Yep, and we get enough to pay for anything we would ever want with it."

"And you never helped me with paying for your bills or expenses?"

Yang could tell Weiss was getting a bit irritated that she never payed for her own costs, aside from things Weiss had no part in.

"Um, yea, those expenses and all. I will make sure I get on those from now on."

"You'd best take care of them from now on!"

"Umm, uhh, would paying for our trip to the mountain resort tomorrow make it up to you for now?"

"... I suppose."

"Great, then that's settled."

At that moment the door was kicked open and a fuming Blake came through.

"It would be wise to not talk about things like that and not make sure I was around, Yang!"

"AHH! BLAKE! OHGODOHSHITOHCRAP, umm ummm, how much did you hear?"

"All of it! And I don't quite appreciate you abusing my gambling problem! So we are going to have a "talk", and sort out what I shall do to punish you!"

"Oohhhh noooooo, I am soooo boned right now!"

"Oh, look at the time, I told Ruby I would help her with that thing and all, so yea, I'm just gonna..."

Weiss rushed out of the room, not looking back as she herd noises of unspeakable horrors coming from their room as she left.

"I hope Yang survives the night. She is the one paying for our trip tomorrow..."

So there was chapter 27, I felt like I should shed a bit more light on how Yang affords things, and the fact that Blake actually has a gambling problem, and that's why her and Yang make bets on everything. And, if you haven't caught on yet, the next chapter is them going to the Vale Mountain Resort (I have no idea if this is a thing in canon, or if it ever will be, but I am going my own ways with this fanfic.) It's going to be the last chapter before I do my CHRISTMAS SPECIAL! See how big it is? It's going to be a fun, heartwarming time for team RWBY, and I hope you guys stick around to read about it. If you do plan on sticking around, and like how this is going, please follow/fav and drop a review, and I will see you all in the next installment. Byee!
