A/N: Aha! An authors' note from Shadow! Bet you didn't see that coming!...What do you mean you did!?

Swiss: Shadow, quiet now. We have a story to write!

Also I'm a little late... My bad. This chapter is basically just a load of fluff with a cliff hanger at the end, and you know how much I love cliff hangers.


Ryner sat down on a bench and rubbed off the face paint. "You seem to be having fun..." A voice stated behind him.

Ryner's heartbeat stopped for a second. He turned to see a man he had been hunting for a long time.

"Torchwick."

"So you remember me Blade." He mused. Ryner reached for Forgiveness and Oblivion. Torchwick motioned behind him and men with guns appeared. "Now now, no need to resort to violence." He told Ryner.

"How convincing." Ryner put bluntly.

"But straight to business, a friend of mine wishes to speak with you." Torchwick said, ignoring Ryner's last statement with boredom evident in his voice.

"Well, this friend of yours can kiss my ass." Ryner stated in anger.

"Trust me, the way she talks about you, she'd love nothing more." Torchwick shuddered. "Just be in the back alley of Dust till Dawn at 14:00 on Saturday, not a second later." After saying those words, he left.


{Selene}

Selene slowly rose from her sleep with a empty feeling at her side. She opened her eyes to see that the girl she had been sleeping with was now where to be seen. She rubbed the sleep out of her eyes and stood us wonder around the room finding no trace of Ruby. Selene frowned and still in her bed clothes she left her room to search.

Moon sighed. "Honestly this is not what you should be worrying about. Keeping an eye on Legion should be our top priority."

Selene walked down the corridor. 'Ryner can control it.'

"But what if he can't Selene." Moon insisted her voice taking on that motherly tone she sometimes hated. "If that power is unleashed again who knows what kind of devastation could be brought. Our focus is to keep this world safe, not for you to chase around a silly fantasy of lo-"

"Can't you just let me be happy for one second?" She stopped in her tracks, realising she had spoken aloud out of anger. She breathed deeply, calming her nerves. 'I care about Ruby okay. Right now that's all I want, to care about someone. Can you just let me?'

Moon paused for a second before finally sighing again, but this time in defeat. "I can see your happy, and yes things seem to be stable for now, I just hope you are ready for the future. She is on the roof."

Selene let out her breath and ascended the stairs. 'Things will be fine. Besides, now I have to protect someone now.'

Selene made it to the door to the roof, and opened it on a still darkened sky and saw Ruby looking out towards the stars, her back to Selene, who walked up slowly trying to disturb her in case she was deep in thought. She eventually gave up on waiting and spoke softly. "Ruby?"

Ruby jumped a little, turning and upon realising who it was smiled in delight. "Oh hey Sel. Did I wake you I'm sorry."

"No you didn't but I got worried where you had gone." She said walking up to Ruby hoping the night would hide her blush of embarrassment. "For a second I thought you…" she stopped herself.

"I thought what?" Ruby said, her head cocking to the left slightly which Selene always found adorable, but not enough to make her feel any less guilty.

"I thought you had changed your mind." She admitted, looking at the ground twiddling her thumbs. She had always been worried since the moment she first kissed Ruby the younger girl would change her mind.

But Ruby caught Selene by surprise by taking the lead. Pulling Selene into her and kissing her lightly on the lips. Even though she hand to get on tiptoes to kiss her, Selene felt herself liking this more dominant Ruby, one who wasn't afraid to take charge.

"I don't think I can change my mind if you're the only thing that's on it right now." She said smiling and resting your head on Selene's clavicle. "This is new to me, having this kind of feeling but I don't want it to end it's like a sunset you watch it rise every morning and don't want it to end so you come back the next morning and you feel the same things over and over and over and over-"

Selene presses her hand over Ruby's hand giggling. "Okay you proved your point." She laughed lightly before kissing her deeply. "I can't get you out of my head either."


[Ryner]

Ryner groaned as he awoke to a heavy feeling on his chest. He looked downwards and mentally panicked.

Yang was lying on top of him, in her undergarments. Eventually Ryner could no longer take the pressure. "How did you get in here!?" He yelled in confusion. Yang stirred awake.

"Not so loud..." She moaned cutely. She then caught sight of where she was and looked at Ryner with a predatory grin. "Hey, Ryner." She started to crawl towards him on her hands and knees. Once she got there Ryner wrapped his arms around her waist. Soon they both started to lean forwards and their lips met.

And the bell for classes rang.

"Fuck!" Ryner yelled. 'Just as it was getting good to.'

"You disgust me brat." Legion huffed.

'Whatever, you're just jealous because you can't get laid.' Ryner retaliated smugly. Legion then proceeded to sob in the back of Ryner's mind.

"Better get ready for class." Yang sighed. "But...we'll pick this up later." She whispered seductively, making Ryner's face tinge with red slightly.

"I look forward to it." He smiled.

The walk to class and the walk to his seat was taking up with him thinking of the other night. Tourchwick's sudden appearance wasn't so much a problem, but it was this 'friend' of his that had him worried. Whoever 'She' is, if she mad Roman look like that, she must be pretty fierce.

"Whoever this person is they don't scare me." Legion huffed.

'They don' scare me.' Ryner thought. 'But it's obviously a trap.'

Ryner couldn't keep his head off the table. "Mr Hunter, would you care to demonstrate hand-to-hand combat with Mr Arc?" Goodwitch glared at him. He looked at her nonchalantly.

"Sure." This made Jaune sigh in defeat.

As they took their positions' Ryner gave Jaune some advice. "Legs farther apart, hands raised, low and hunched stance. Hunched forwards…" Jaune looked at him confused for a second and then caught his meaning. He did as Ryner told him to do, but a little doubtfully.

"Begin!" Goodwitch called. Ryner charged forward with lightning speed and threw a right hook. But Jaune actually managed to dodge it, much to everyone but Ryner's surprise. Ryner grinned and threw a springboard heel kick, only for Jaune to duck it. "Good." Ryner said. Right before throwing a series of vicious kicks and punches. All of which Jaune ducked, sidestepped, hopped over or blocked.

"I'm impressed." Legion stated.

Ryner nodded and finished off the fight with a colossal kick. Jaune made a bad judgement and tried to block it. The kick broke through and hit him in the face, knocking him out cold.

"Whoops."

"Well done Mr Hunter, but I would appreciate it if you restrained yourself in the foreseeable future." Goodwitch glared.

After class Ryner decided to talk to Ruby. "Hey, Ruby." She jumped three feet into the air. Ryner caught her.

"Oh, hey Ryn!" She replied as Ryner put her down.

"Why so jumpy?" He asked, curiosity getting the better of him. "Nothing!" Ruby shouted, hiding whatever it was behind her back.

"A daisy chain?" Ruby heard Ryner ask from behind. She squeaked and jumped again. Ryner didn't bother catching her. "This is for Selene isn't it?"

"How did you know?"

Ryner sighed. "You're not the most subtle in your feelings. Neither is Selene."

"Is it that obvious?" Ruby blushed in embarrassment, shuffling her feet.

"Very." Ryner deadpanned.

"Very." Legion confirmed.

"Ryner quit teasing my sister." Yang came out of nowhere, making Ryner scream like a girl and jump into Ruby's arms in a very fairy-tale princess like fashion. Ruby giggled and Yang broke down laughing.

"It's not funny!" Ryner pouted adorably. Legion was laughing like a maniac yelling something about 'vengeance'.

"Uh, hey Yang." Ryner said, wrapping her arms around her and kissing her lightly.

"Oh, no." Yang replied. "A kiss, no matter how good, isn't gonna save your reputation now." She finished with a giggle, then kissing Ryner on the cheek.

"Not even a little?" He asked, giving her the puppy eyes.

"Hmmmmm, fine. I don't see why not." She said.

"Erm, guys." Ruby said, her face blank. Ryner turned to her, almost forgetting no one knew about him and Yang, or him and anyone for that matter. "Why are you kissing eachother?"

Ryner stood with Yang holding his arm cutely, both their faces conveying obvious guilt and embarrassment. "Yeah, I'm gonna go see Blake now." Ryner told them and left, leaving Yang to try an explain things to Ruby.

Ryner found Blake in the library. He slid over the table and leaned on his elbow facing her. "Hey Blake!" She looked up to him. "Don't you know this is a library?" She asked.

"Oui?"

"You know you're supposed to be quiet right?"

"Oui?"

"Do you even care?"

Ryner thought for a moment. "No."

Blake sighed at Ryner's response. "Why are you here?"

"To see you!" He responded in a childish fashion. She smiled at this.

Ryner then leaned inwards and mashed his lips into hers, surprising her, but eventually she fell into it. He smiled, opening his mouth slightly to let his incisors nip gently on her bottom lip, reciving a slight moan in response from the black hair girl. Soon he felt her tongue pushing against his lips, asking for entry, which he granted whole heartedly. As they were doing all this Ryner's hand was slowly moving up to her chest, as Blake's hand moved down to the zip on his trousers.

The librarian coughed behind them. Turning both their faces crimson.

"As much as I'm a supporter of allowing hormones to flourish, please remember that there are other students who use this library." She smirked.

"Yes Miss!" Ryner yelled. He then winked at Blake. "See you later." He smirked. Making Blake smirk as well.

So far, the day seemed to be going quite well for Ryner. He walked towards the lunch hall upon hearing his stomach growl and he walked by Pyrrah who sat against a wall looking over her shield.

"Hey, Strawberry Pie!" Ryner called to Pyrrha.

"Strawberry Pie?" She asked.

"You know, Py, Pie, red hair, strawberry?" She looked at him funny. "So, whats new?" He asked.

"Just practicing." She said in a cheery tone, covering the nervousness of being around the man that took her first kiss. She got butterfly's just by bumping into him.

"Really? Can I join?"

She smiled at this. "Sure, why not?"

She swung at Ryner with her weapon in gladius form, then switched to the flintlock rifle and sent a laser into his chest. It launched him across the hall. "I'm sorry!" She called, worried she had ruined her chances with him. But no, he laughed and drew Forgiveness and Oblivion.

"No I'm good! Do that again!"


Selene walked into the lunch hall with Ruby. The two tried their best not to stand too close to each other least they give away that had something, even though it was probably the headline to the school newspaper by now. As they walked through the door the next thing they saw was Ryner flying across the hall, Pyrrah with her rifle smoking. "I'm sorry!"

"I suggest we stay out of it." Selene said backtracking out of the door as Ryner stood back up.

"No I'm good! Do that again!"

Selene walked but up the corridor with Ruby, laughing about the look on Ryner's face when he landed on the floor when Ruby suddenly grabbed Selene's hand, pulling her into an empty room to her left, closing the door behind her. Selene was taken back. "Ruby what-"

But before she could say more Ruby strolled over to Selene and kissed her, sliding her arm through Selene's waist and resting it on her back. Selene was surprised by this new wave of confidence Ruby was showing, but loved it, quickly sinking into her dominant kiss even though the other girl was on her toes slightly. Her lips felt warm against Ruby's, their mouth opening and closing in tandem, perfectly in sync and sending small shivers up Selene's spine.

Finally they broke apart, Selene half tempted to bite on Ruby's lower lip to stop her but decided against it. She opened her eyes, seeing Ruby smile slightly blushing, and Selene stroked her cheek smiling back. "What was that for?" She asked giggling slightly.

"Oh no reason." Ruby batted her eyelids. "I just really missed kissing you is all."

Selene was the one blushing now. "You only have to ask Rose." She kissed her lightly, locking her fingers with the younger girls. She was glad Moon was asleep or she probably would be hearing a lot of stern words about public displays of affection. Ruby smiled back, and Selene stepped towards the door to leave but Ruby held her back.

"Can we stay here a little longer?" Ruby pouted. Selene just sighed and nodded, letting Ruby do a little dance before moving back to her letting her embrace her once again. She couldn't ever say no to her.

Line Break:

The whole day had pretty much gone the same. Selene and Ruby were inseparable. They spent lunch together, sneaking bites out of each other's food while no one was looking. They went on walks strolling around the campus and occasionally pushing each other against a wall to kiss each other or just giggle. Selene had no idea what she was doing but loved every single minute of it. She couldn't describe it Ruby made her feel…

Happy.

Selene had never been this happy. With Ruby all of those things she had been fearing never came to her head. All the things she had done, to her tribe to others, they evaporated with a single touch, even looking at Ruby made her brain melt and her heart would do several flips inside her chest. Whenever Ruby was touching her the feeling was electric, addictive. All day she would reach out the brush against Ruby's arm just to feel her warm skin again, and Ruby would shudder too, blushing slightly and making Selene barely resist the urge to jump on her and kiss her in the middle of the hall or a corridor or even the bathroom, basically anywhere they were at the time even if it was crowded.

Eventually though the day was ending and Selene invited Ruby to her room again, which Ruby accepted quickly without a second thought. Selene loved the way Ruby worked, and as she watched her prepare popcorn for their movie she loved how she would scratch her head trying to figure out the microwave, the way she would jump up on her toes with every second the timer counted down, smiling slightly. The Ruby would catch her look, and smile. "What?"

"Nothing." Selene said as she walked over, sliding her hands around Ruby's belly holding her from behind. Moon was awake by now trying her best to make a disapproving noise that might catch Selene's attention but failing. After so many years she had learnt to block her out for the most part. Ruby closed her eyes smiling, falling into Selene a little but was awoken by the bing of the microwave finishing. She jumped a little and took the popcorn out, quickly realising it had just been heated and danced it around in her hands.

"Hot hot hot hot hot." She placed it down on the table before blowing on her hands smiling, proud of her achievement at cooking. Selene was trying her best not to laugh and Ruby just put her hands on her hips glaring but smirking at the same time.

"You're a funny one." Selene said, kissing her on the forehead before pulling her down onto the bed next to her, wrapping her arms around her and burying her face in the black and red hair. Ruby smiled closing her eyes. "No you don't." Selene said squeezing Ruby in a hug to keep her from falling asleep. Ruby's eyes flew open.

"Sorry." She blushed.


Ryner slammed into the wall, hardly able to take a breath before lips were upon his, lustfully opening and closing letting their tongues fight each other for dominance. It was a long story, basically after Ryner had "Lost" against Pyrrha, he had left the hall with lips stick on his cheek from the victor which unfortunately was seen by non-other than Yang, whose eyes immediately became red as she grabbed Ryners hand before he could speak and dragged him into a nearby empty classroom, where she immediately began to show her ownership of him.

Not that Ryner was complaining.

She gripped her back, sliding his hands lower down but was stopped by her who moved then back up, much to his disappointment, but soon he felt her lips move to his neck, which made his mind go completely blank, apart from on part of it.

"Tell this heathen girl to unhand my vessel!" Legion roared. "You should be going back to kill that smarty pants girl who bested you not courting in an empty room!"

'Legion.' Ryner thought trying his best to think through the kisses Yang was giving him. 'Shut the kiss up.'

Yang moved herself back to his lips, and by now Ryner could think of nothing else. She had done it, he was under her spell. He was her slave, ready to follow her every will even if it meant never looking at another girl again. Well, he thought to himself, not every girl.

Then his minds ticked into action again, and suddenly now all he could think about was the other girls he's kissed. Weiss, the stuck up princess who actually had a soft spot to her. Blake, the mysteriously sexy lip biter. Pyrrha too, the innocent one. Why was he thinking of them while he was kissing Yang, the hot, fiery one? What was wrong with him?

He pulled out of the kiss, and Yang looked at him annoyed. "What is it?"

"Nothing." He said, his brain conflicting with itself. Then another thought surfaced. Tourchwick from the night before. His meeting with his friend. He pushed Yang away slightly, his mood killed. But she caught him before he could leave, the red eyes returned to their lilac.

"Something's wrong. Tell me." She had lost all her angry tone, and was gripping his arm worriedly.

"Nothing. It's okay." He lied, trying to pass off a smile before kissing her lightly and leaving the room. He descended the stair, half a mind to punch a wall. He wanted nothing more than to run back into that room and resume with Yang but for some reason he felt this Friend of Roman was bad news.

"Alright Roman." He said aloud. "This better be good."
