Yeah, I'm just gonna let y'all figure out what happens 'cuz I'm just jumping to after their semester break.


"Alright, SHLD!"

I turned, seeing Sierra with a foot on her chair in the café, her uniform's skirt riding dangerously high on her legs as she said, "Now that break's almost over, we have some important business to attend to!"

"Like what?"

Hotel raised an eyebrow in mild amusement as he watched Yang catching food on the other side of the café in her mouth.

I sighed and said, "Even after taking extra classes? I didn't even get to enjoy my break since you're so intent on graduating with RWBY and JNPR."

"Damn straight I do," Sierra replied, getting up into my face. Lima continued knitting whatever it was as an apple suddenly flew between Sierra and I. We both looked in the direction of Yang, who quickly sat down and appeared to mutter, "Oops."

Hotel chuckled as Sierra continued, "…anyway, as I was saying-."

"LOOK OUT!"

Sierra's eyes suddenly turned red as the area around us turned gray. She sighed with annoyance as I saw Nora in a throwing motion with a pie in her hand. Sierra sighed with annoyance as Hotel said, "I think it was that new team, team SWRD that threw that one."

Her attention suddenly fell on the neighboring table, revealing one of the members attempting to quickly sit back down. Sierra's look of annoyance suddenly turned into a look of sinister intent as she quickly grabbed onto the pie, releasing the time freeze that was on it.

"Umm…Sierra," I asked nervously, "what are you doing?"

"Getting payback," she said evilly as she walked over to the group next to us.

I could only watch helplessly as time unfroze. Sierra tapped Saber on the shoulder, then said, "Here's payback asshole!"

An audible "SPLAT" filled the café as the metal tray slowly slid off of his face. He wiped the cream off of his face as Sierra froze time again, walking back up to us, unfreezing it as she sat down. I held back a laugh as Hotel chuckled, clearly holding back his laugh as well. I then shot a glance back at team SWRD, seeing the girl who had called Ruby a bitch from last semester reach for a knife.

No way. Is she seriously gonna throw that!?

And she did.

Just then, Lima pulled up what she had knitted; a team banner of some sorts with SHLD engraved on the middle as she said, "Done."

Unfortunately, her success was short lived as the knife ripped the banner out of her hands, making a clean cut right in the middle of the H and L. Lima blinked, but then frowned, then began to get watery eyes as she traced where her hard work had gone to, seeing the knife holding it up on the wall.

"Hey," I yelled, "watch what you're throwing!"

"Don't throw a pie at our leader's face!"

"Don't throw one at us in general!"

Sierra slammed a hand on the table. Both JNPR and RWBY stopped their impending food fight as the girl with team SWRD stood up. Both her and Sierra got into a stare down as Lima sniffled, then began to sob. I patted her on the back as I heard Saber say, "Dagger, let it go."

The girl looked at him, then sighed, sitting back down. Hotel stood up, walking up to the knife that held the banner, pulling it off the wall, handing it back to Lima. My wolf-girl partner's ears were folded down in sadness as Blake walked over, stroking her hair.

I sighed and said, "Maybe we ought to go, Sierra."

"Agreed," she replied, "SHLD, move out."

With that, we all stood up, Lima slower than us as she held the banner close to her.

"H-hey, Sierra!"

I turned back, seeing Sierra walk quickly past me. I followed her with my eyes, then turned to Saber, who looked saddened by her ignoring him. I sighed again and said, "I'll take the message for you."

He turned to me, opening his mouth, only to close it as he said, "…no…this is something I'd rather talk about with her personally."

"Well then, good luck," I replied, "'cuz you hurt my partner and her teammate. No guarantees that we'll have any idle talk anytime soon."

With that, I turned around, walking away.


"Okay," Sierra said, "now that we're out of dramaville, let's get down to business."

Lima continued fixing the banner as Sierra continued.

"We're excused for the first day of classes because we need to get rid of the highly dangerous Grimm in the Emerald Forest. This is a rendezvous mission with RWBY and JNPR, so don't do anything stupid, or that might jeopardize any of the other two teams."

Hotel and I nodded as Lima finally finished her work and once again said, "Done."

Sierra smiled, walking up to Lima and putting a hand on her shoulder, asking, "But before that…where do you guys think we should hang this?"

"On the door," I suggested. Sierra shook her head and answered, "If we put it on the door, then chances are it's gonna get shaken off if too many people knock or swing it open."

Point taken.

"Then how about," Hotel suggested, "over the desk?"

We all looked at the area over the desk. Now that I think about it, the wall over that part of the room really looked…empty. Of course, that was after we went to team RWBY's room where they had designed the room as a girl's paradise. They had that neat forest painting that Weiss had brought in.

And Ruby cut the blinds down once….

I couldn't help but smirk at the curtain with the sewing job on it as Sierra said, "Okay then! Over the desk it'll be!"

With that, we put it over our desk. I couldn't help but grin in satisfaction as the room finally looked complete with our logo and all of the painting we had done in our free time. As well as Sierra's collection of knives that were under her bed. And Hotel's ammunition under his. Jeez…why do we keep so much stuff?

"…You know," Sierra said, "I don't believe we've done our team motto for a while."

We all smiled as Sierra turned to us, sticking her hand out to us.

"Sierra."

"Hotel."

"Lima."

"Delta."

We all lifted our hands into air.

"SHLD!"


If y'all are still expecting that RubyXDelta lemon, it'll have to wait XP
