The person who answered the door however wasn't Weiss, it was a younger girl with black and red hair. She tilted her head to the side with a look of confusion on my face when see saw me. I assume this is one of Weiss' teammates.
"Can I help you?" She suddenly spoke in a childlike voice,
"Is Weiss here?"
"Yea, she's here...why?"
"I'm one of the servants that was sent here to oversee her."
"Are you one of her maids? That's so cool!" her expression changed to one of amazment and curiousity. Though I dont blame her, it's not often you meet the daugther of a rich family and her servant.
"I guess you could call me that...but unlike maids I've been trained in combat to protect my master."
"Oooooh a combat maid! What weapon do you use?"
I pulled out one of my knives from it's sheath, "I use knives, I was trained in close combat."
The girl stared at my knife with sparkling eyes. I assume she really likes weapons, "Anyway, may I come in?"
"Come on in!" she opened the door wider and moved aside allowing me to walk in. The first thing I see when I walk in are makeshift bunk beds that are held up together by rope. They look unsafe...it's almost as if they could give out at any moment. The girl who opened the door jumped onto the top bunk. The bed however didn't move in the slightest. Either that girl is as light as a feather or those beds are more secure than I thought.
"Hey Ruby, who's this?" I look over to see a blonde girl on the bottom bunk of the set of beds,
"She's Weiss' combat maid."
"That's...really simplifing it..." I clear my throat as I introduce myself, "My name is _, I'm a servant of the Schnee family."
"My name is Yang, nice to meet you." Yang gets up and extends her hand,
"Likewise" I shake her hand as the other girl jumped down in front of me,
"I'm Ruby" she gave me a small salute, "And the girl up there is Blake."
I look up at the top bunk and notice another girl with dark black hair and a bow on her head. By her scent she's a faunus, but I dont see any ears or anything. It must be hidden by her bow.
"Hello." I say to her,
"Hi..." she replied back quietly, she laid down staring at me. Maybe she's wondering why I would serve the Schnee family. It wouldn't be the first time I've heard that question, there were times when I went out in public with Weiss I was often apporached by other faunus. They would ask that same question, even after I answered the question for whatever reason they seemed unsatisfied.
Suddenly footsteps can be heard from the next room. By the sound of the footsteps I could determine that the person is wearing boots. This is Weiss, for whatever reason she always wore boots. Sure enough the person who came into view was Weiss, when she caught sight of me her eyes widen.
"_?" She smiled and threw her arms around me in a tight hug, "It's been so long! What are you doing here?"
"Your father sent me here, I didn't have much to do back home after you left so he sent me here."
"Well regardless, I'm glad to see you."
Weiss and the others told me everything that has happened in the past months. From all of them meeting eachother, to fighting a Nevermore, and most recently fighting a group of terrorists at the docks. I was amazed and somewhat jealous they did so much, while I was cleaning and cooking. But nonetheless, I'm glad no harm was done to Weiss. I'll be sure of that now that I'll be fighting alongside her.
"I'm so glad to see you after so long, and who knows maybe you'll get wrap up in our crazy adventures as well." Weiss smiled which was rare to see around other people,
"If that does happen I'll do everything in my power to protect my mistress." I stood up and took a bow which caused Weiss to fluster,
"Hey! No need to be so formal!"
The blonde haired girl named Yang grinned widely and nudged Weiss' shoulder, "Wow, you have some dedicated maids."
"Shut up! She's not just a maid to me! She's a very close friend to me."
"How did the two of you meet anyway?" The quiet one, Blake finally spoke out,
I was about to answer before Weiss interrupted me, "I'll tell you guys all about it tomorrow but for right now it's really late and I need my beauty sleep..." she rubbed her eyes,
"Oh...I will take my leave then..."
"Hey, stop by when you wake up. We'll all go to get breakfast. I'd like to actually have breakfast with you instead of just you serving it to me."
"I'd like that very much mistress."
The remainder of the night was spent saying our good nights and what time I should meet them. Weiss has some very colorful friends, but I'm glad she's so close to them. It really shows how much she's grown. With nothing left to do I went back into my room which was now dark. The others must be sleeping, so I shut the door as quietly as I could and slipped into bed.
