Weiss Reacts to Hot Springs Episodes, Part 2!
A/N: Welcome, one and all, to Weiss Reacts! Hehehehehe...well, let's just say that Winter has absolutely no idea what she's up for. Also anyone else hyped for Fire Emblem Fates? I know I am. Excellent. Well, time for Winter to absolutely embarrass herself and shenanigans to happen! Are you excited for those? I know I definitely am! Also, because you people have kept asking for it, and I want to do it, a crossover with Lucina Reacts is currently in the works. Stay tuned!
DISCLAIMER: RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth, otherwise we would have a Huntress character based on magical girl anime.

"It really is nice...to be able to take a break from the insanity of Beacon." Weiss sighed, sinking into the water, resting her arms on the heated rocks on the side of the pool.
"Heh." Yang chuckled, resting her head on the stones. "You need to loosen up some more. You're always so...uptight."
"Between you, Velvet trying to sneak into my room and steal my underwear, and Dust knows what else? I think it's just a bit hard to relax." The heiress retorted. "But...I suppose, if you actually make the effort to be less of a jerk, then I might be able to relax."
Yang frowned at that. "Oh come on! That was uncalled for!"
"Shushshushushushushush." Ruby cut them both off with a finger, closing her eyes and trying to enjoy the steam. "Guys, just shush. Shuuuush! I'm trying to enjoy this! These...these springs are peeeerrrfect."
The hot springs the inn boasted really were amazing- the perfect temperature, just right to bathe in, with the hot mist making it a little hard to see, but making it all the warmer in this cold temperature. Yang, Ruby, Weiss and Blake were lounging in the spring, enjoying the heat of the water on their freezing skin. Nora was sitting in the corner with a wooden tray floating in the water and a stack of buttermilk pancakes piled upon said tray, lying with her head on a pair of folded towels she'd bunched up behind her head as a pillow.
"How did you even get those in here?" Blake inquired, pushing a strand of hair out of her eyes- her normally long hair had been tied in a bun to keep it out of the water. Yang had declined to do so, but then Blake wagered she'd prefer wet hair to having to bind her beloved hair.
Nora wiggled her fingers. "I used my magical sloth powers to sneak it in!"
"She popped a smoke bomb in the changing rooms to do it." Yang corrected her, causing Weiss to shoot her a glare.
"NORA!"
"I need my pancakes!" The girl protested. "I can't live without them! It would be inhuman to deprive me of them! D-don't hurt me so!"
"...I don't even..." The heiress put a hand on her temple, rubbing it to get rid of the headache Nora had just inflicted upon her. "...Nora, I swear, if I get banned out of my own family's property, I am going to personally execute you."
Nora pouted at that. "Oh come on! That's mean!"
Blake shrugged. "You know, she has a point. It'd be pretty humiliating to be banned off family property because your friend did something ridiculously stupid..."
"I just wanted my pancakes..." The berserker responded, whimpering sadly. Ruby frowned.
"Don't worry, Weiss doesn't mean that." The reaper reassured her, before turning to Weiss. "Right, Weiss?"
Her expression was the most pleading face the heiress had ever had the fortune of beholding, with watery eyes, pouting lip and that strange quality that made others look pitiful- but worked fine on people like Ruby. Perhaps it was a side effect of the steam, or maybe Yang's theory about cute people being able to make stupid things look cuter was right.
Weiss sighed. "Fine, Ruby. I won't completely destroy Nora if she ruins my reputation. Just partially. Happy?"
"Very." Ruby smiled at her. Nora cheered.
Yang, meanwhile, rubbed her chin, looking over at Weiss. "Hm...there's something...different about you."
"Different?" Weiss looked up, running her hands through her hair instinctively. "What do you mean different?"
"...maybe you've filled out?" Yang started wading through the pool to Weiss. "Hm..."
"Yang, what are you-YANG! N-NO!" Weiss blushed profusely as Yang's hands started wandering. "WAIT! NO! S-STOP! PERVERT! W-WHY ARE YOU TOUCHING THERE?!"
"Hm...you really are starting to fill out. In all the right places, too." She smiled up at her deviously.
"Y-YOU DIDN'T NEED T-TO DO THAT TO SEE, I-IDIOT!"
Ruby stared at the display, blushing. "U-um...s-she's my girlfriend, you know."
"Join in, then!" The brawler called, inviting Ruby over.
"D-don't you dare!" The heiress cried out in embarrassment. "G-gh...w-why..."
Blake, meanwhile, looked away, blushing and shaking her head.
Nora merely sliced a bit of pancake off for her to eat. "Hm...it's a little dry. Needs more maple syrup!"
She poured some of the sugary syrup onto her beloved pancakes, blissfully ignoring the vaguely intimate events going on around her.
Meanwhile, over the wall of the hot springs...
Velvet peered over the wall, gazing down at Yang's ministrations upon her beloved heiress. She seethed.
"...h-how come SHE gets to do that? S-stupid pervert..." Velvet hissed. "S-she's defiling W-Weiss-sempai's purity!"
"Is it foggy enough?" Pyrrha called from underneath. "Can they see anything?"
Vivi clambered onto Velvet's shoulder, peering down with her. "Pipipipi?"
"...well, apart from that blonde oversexed deviant pervert defiling my Weiss, nothing. It's quite foggy."
Pyrrha popped on her goggles. "Excellent. Wait, can these switch to infrared?"
"...just turn the dial once." The bunnygirl stated. "You know what the plan is, right?"
"Understood." Winter clapped happily, smiling. "Oh my, this is so exciting!"
Pyrrha sighed. "I still can't believe we brought Miss Schnee..."
"Nonsense. You require my experience in holding surprise dinners!" Winter protested. "It would be almost illogical to leave me out- after all, it happens to be an art gentlewomen are talented in."
Vivi just gave her an incredulous look, as if to say "Truly?" or "Seriously?".
Velvet looked down at the lady. "So, you know your part of the plan, right?"
She held up two clear orbs full of mist. "Understood, Miss Scarlatina...but I still don't understand what these are for."
"A distraction to make the surprise easier to do!" Velvet cried. "Just set them off so me and Pyrrha can go surprise those two! You want to help us surprise them, right?"
"Oh, right!" Winter nodded hastily. "I do apologise. I shall get on that immediately." With that, the lady quickly dashed off to take care of her part of the plan. When she was out of earshot, Pyrrha frowned.
"...for as much as I dislike Miss Schnee, I still feel bad for using her like this." Pyrrha stated, frowning. "Are you sure this is necessary?"
"I want my Weiss-sempai, you want your Jaune-kun, and all is fair in love and war. Besides, Yang would do the same thing. Now get into position! We don't have time to worry!" The bunnygirl snapped. "Get ready! They're about to make it a lot easier for us to get our quarry.
The spearmaiden sighed. "Your determination would be admirably, if it weren't...about trying to get Weiss to love you."
"I WILL SUCCEED DAMMIT" Velvet cried desperately. "NOW GO"
Pyrrha did so, scurrying off. Vivi sighed, shaking her head as she slapped her forehead with a stubby arm.
"Pipipipiiii pipiiii piiiipipi."
"No, I am not taking this too far!"
"Pi."
"Slippery slope? What do you mean slippery slope?! I won't slip down this slippery slope!"
"Piiii pipi." Vivi stated again, shrugging. "Pipipipi.
"...ggh...meanie..." The bunnygirl pouted at her own creation, patting her lightly on the head. "Why do you have to be so mean, Vivi? Also, why is the only person I can share anything with an animated plushie?"
"Pipipi." Vivi huffed as she clambered onto the top of Velvet's head to look down on the people in the hot springs. "Pipipiiiii."
Slowly, the bunnygirl slipped on her goggles, flipping them to the infrared function, before studying the area where Weiss was wading in the water. Her mouth slowly opened, with a line of drool starting to form from it.
"Heehee..." Velvet giggled, before grabbing her rope ladder.
It was time to put her ultimate plan into action.
Meanwhile, down in the hot springs...
Weiss shivered, clutching her hands to her chest. "I feel...violated..."
Yang sighed. "We're close friends, and we're both girls. It isn't that bad."
"...y-you didn't need to be so thorough with trying to find out whether I was filling out, y-you pervert..." The heiress muttered irritably. "Pervert..."
Yang winked at her. "Well, you know. Maybe you might actually be getting a growth spurt~"
"I DON'T NEED A GROWTH SPURT!" The heiress snapped. "I-I AM PERFECTLY ADEQUATE IN SIZE! PERFECTLY!"
Nora burped, pushing aside her finished tray of pancakes. "Ahhhh. Nora full now. Can we play game now?"
"Yeah, actually." Ruby nodded in agreement. "We've been sitting here doing nothing fun at all, and we're in a hot spring! It should be fun to be here! We should do something fun!"
"You're right." Blake looked around the pool, judging its width and length. "...hm. It's a pretty big spring. We should have a race."
"A swimming race?" Weiss stared at her in disbelief. "In this?"
"Not too fast." Ruby added. "We wouldn't want to make ourselves too sweaty in here of all places, after all."
Nora frowned. "But you shouldn't swim on a full stomach! The stomach sloths don't like being disturbed!"
"Then why did you have pancakes then?!" The catgirl snapped. "You weren't even supposed to bring those in!"
"The Queen demands her pancakes at all times!" The berserker replied. "And the Sloth God would disapprove if I forsook his beloved pancakes!"
Weiss rolled her eyes. "I'm not sure if it's the Sloth God or you who likes pancakes so much..."
Yang cracked her knuckles. "A race sounds fun. Alright, I'm game!
Last one has to get everyone else dinner!"
Nora smirked. "WOOOO! RACE TIME! YOU'RE ALL GOING TO BE BUYING ME PANCAKES FOR DINNER!"
"Pancakes aren't a dinner-"
"PANCAKES!"
Weiss huffed. "Well, I for one do not intend to lose." She waded over to the end of the pool where Ruby was, with the others following closely behind.
Yang rolled her head on her neck. "Alright, let's do this! All of you suckers are buying me dinner!"
"Let's go!" Ruby shouted out, allowing all the girls to start paddling towards the other end of the pool.
"Ow!" Blake cried. "Dammit! Water in my eye!"
"All's fair in love and war, Blakey!" The brawler yelled behind her, grinning, before Weiss overtook her.
"Quit wasting time boasting then!" The heiress remarked. "Dunce!"
"Hey! That's not fair!"
"All's fair in love and war." Weiss responded, before stopping at the end of the pool. "And I guess I win."
"Tch! I won't lose!" The brawler remarked, before wading across with several strong strokes of her arms. "Come back here!"
Blake shook her head, blinking. "Ugh...guys. Don't you think it's getting a little steamy in here?"
Nora scoffed. "Don't be silly! You're just pretending to do that because you got hit in the eye and are trying to make us all lose!"
"No, seriously." The catgirl looked around confusedly. "It was pretty steamy already, but now...I can barely see the other end of the pool."
Ruby looked around, rubbing her eyes. "What the...yeah! Why is it so steamy?"
Weiss grumbled. "It's far too steamy...is it getting hotter?"
"No." Yang shook her head. "It shouldn't be, at any rate, unless there's an eruption or something, but this isn't a volcano, is it?"
"Last I checked, our facilities built on volcanoes weren't built on active ones." Weiss thought carefully. "Hum. I wonder..."
The heiress trailed off, thinking carefully. Nora blinked, flailing her hands around.
"I can't see!" She whined. "Too much fog!"
Blake sighed. "Well, we're going to have to live with it. It'll probably dissipate soon enough. It is an open air spring, after all."
Yang pouted. "You guys are cowards. It's just a little steam. That hasn't stopped anyone! Right, Weiss?"
Silence. Yang crossed her arms.
"You don't have to rub it in, y'know." The brawler remarked. "Hmph. Always taking things seriously."
In the heavy steam, none of them had noticed a burlap sack lower itself over the heiress' body wrapping itself tightly around her form and yanking her up onto the wall, her squeaks and cries for help muffled by the sackcloth.
Velvet yanked the squirming sack holding Weiss onto her shoulder, pumping her fist and grinning happily.
"YES! IT WORKED!" The bunnygirl cried triumphantly. "I DID IT! YES!"
"Mmmmph!" Weiss warned her from inside the sack. "Mmmmpppph!"
"And she's..." Velvet sighed happily. "...naked..."
Vivi sighed. "Pi."
"What are you even talking about, Vivi? I just want her to love me!" The bunnygirl whined. "It's the way of the Scarlatina! Mama Velour did it, and Grandma Marcia did it!"
"Pipipipi..."
"W-well...then Ruby will just have to share!"
Pyrrha scampered across, holding a squirming sack of Jaune behind her back. "My mission's complete."
Velvet rubbed her hands together. "Excellent."
Winter scurried back towards her partners-in-crime, smiling. "Did I do good? Were they surprised?"
"They were certainly surprised." Pyrrha muttered, looking somewhat guilty. "Certainly so."
Velvet sighed happily. "Well, is our escape vehicle ready?"
"I...had to ask nicely, but they prepared a car for us." The lady stated, frowning slightly. "Also, why are they in sacks?"
"It's for the surprise factor!" Velvet declared. "You know, so they don't see anything!"
Winter tilted her head. "Hum. I...have never heard of such a method, but I like the concept."
The spearmaiden looked over at Velvet, frowning. "Winter, please, go ahead to the car and tell them we're coming."
"Alright." Winter hurried off, as the bunnygirl looked up at Pyrrha.
"Yes?"
"We should tell her the truth. I just feel...guilty." The spearmaiden sighed. "She may be my rival for Jaune-kun's affections, but this just isn't fair."
"No! Not when we're so close to having our loves to ourselves for once!" Velvet whined. "Come on! Winter can't know. Not yet!"
"It ...fine." Pyrrha closed her eyes. "I just...think it's not fair to manipulate her like this."
Meanwhile...
Yang looked around, shaking her head. "No, I haven't found Weiss. Where'd she go?"
Ruby frowned. "Well, she didn't go past me, so she didn't leave the springs."
Nora's eyes flitted about, scanning the pool. "...wait. Did any of you see Velvet or Pyrrha yet?"
"Velvet or-" Yang suddenly realised what was going on. "Oh, Dust dammit."
The catgirl turned to her quickly, confused. "What? What's going on?"
"Velvet and Pyrrha kidnapped her. Likely kidnapped Jaune, too." The brawler explained. "Great, wonderful. Just wonderful."
Ruby pouted. "Again? Do you guys have anything set up to protect Weiss?"
Yang clicked her teeth irritably, shaking her head. "We didn't have set up time. We had no idea this might happen."
Blake sighed, wading towards the end of the pool. "Hang on. I might have something."
"You...might have something?" The reaper inquired, tilting her head.
"I forgot a few things back at Beacon." Blake explained. "I'm having them delivered."
"Delivered?" Yang tilted her head. "By what, the Lagann? Or are you revealing the Megadeus?"
"No, something better."
...
Velvet frowned, adjusting the belt of her seat while in the car Winter acquired. "You're old enough to drive?"
Winter nodded as she carefully drove the car down from the mountain. "Of course. I know some good restaurants near here. Would you like me to drop you off there?"
"No, no, I'll tell you when to drop us off..."The bunnygirl shook her head hurriedly. "Trust me, I know a good place for us to, ah, have dinner..."
Pyrrha simply looked guiltily up from the seat behind. "Of course...yes, have dinner..."
"WAIT WHAT THE-" Velvet shrieked, pointing at the road in front of them, seeing a person in the headlamps. Winter braked quickly, staring at the person.
"Who's that?!" Pyrrha yelped, staring directly at the person, who was strolling in front of the car. Winter tilted her head, scratching it. "...um..."
"Misses Scarlatina, Nikos and Schnee." Norn enunciated clearly into the car. She was wearing her maid costume, as always- dirtied by the trek up the mountain- and carrying two bags of luggage. "What are you doing?"
Vivi sighed. "Pipipi."
"C-come clean?!" The bunnygirl cried. "W-what are you-"
"Come clean?" The lady turned to them, confused. "What do you-"
Norn's expression did not change. "Miss Vivi is saying that you have been manipulated."
"Manipulated?" Winter stared at her in disbelief. "How?"
"They have made use of your services to transport your sister and Mister Arc away for their own purposes instead of what you have thought they were." The robot maid stated bluntly. Winter looked disappointedly at the bunnygirl in the seat next to her.
"Is this true, Miss Scarlatina?"
"O-Of course not! I-"
"It is." Pyrrha sighed, shaking her head. "And I'm sorry. Miss Schnee, I'm really sorry. I'll...make it up to you, somehow."
"NOOOO!" Velvet screamed, leaning over to take over the wheel. "We're going to get away! QUICK-"
Norn stood up stock straight, placing her hand on the back of the car. "Engaging Protector Protocol. Directing power to arm servos."
"...w-what the..." The bunnygirl tried to move the car forward. "Why aren't we-GAH! WE'RE MOVING BACKWARD!"
Pyrrha gazed out of the back window to see that Norn was dragging the car back up the mountain with one arm. Her face was still emotionless, without a hint of pain or any sign that this took effort for her to do.
"NOOOO!" Velvet cried. "We were so CLOSE!"
Pyrrha closed her eyes. "I am ready to accept punishment." Vivi simply hung her head mournfully.
...
Half an hour later, in the girl's dorm...
"...so you dolts...manipulated my sister...into going along with your stupid kidnapping schemes." Weiss seethed, glaring down at Pyrrha and Velvet, now fully clothed. Jaune was sitting just outside, having some hot chocolate made for him by Norn.
"...i-in our defence, she wanted in-" Velvet raised a finger, but Weiss smacked the table next to her to silence her. Winter frowned at her younger sister.
"Now, Weiss...please understand. Miss Nikos has apologised for her part, and I do wholeheartedly accept her apology."
The heiress closed her eyes, breathing heavily for a second, before turning to the spearmaiden.
"You're free to go. You're forgiven."
"...I'm sorry about this." Pyrrha nodded hurriedly, before running out of the room. The heiress turned to Velvet.
"Winter, you may want to leave the room. Perhaps Jaune needs something." Weiss stated calmly. Winter nodded in agreement.
"Understood."
As she ran off, Weiss turned to Velvet, breathing deeply.
"...d-do you forgive me?" The bunnygirl inquired hopefully. Vivi was already scurrying off her shoulder, running for the door. She felt the killing intent seeping off the heiress, and she wanted no part of her mother's punishment.
Weiss sighed, smiling sweetly at her. Velvet didn't notice her hand was slipping towards Myrtenaster's hilt.
"Oh, of course I forgive you." The heiress responded. "Of course."
"Yay-"
"But..." She flipped Myrtenaster's setting onto the blue setting, slowly drawing it from its scabbard. "Crimes must be punished even if you do forgive others for them.
You got my sister involved, and you have committed a crime worth a punishment. And the punishment for this one...is execution."
She drew Myrtenaster, the blade shimmering with ice crystals. Velvet swallowed nervously.
"...uh oh."
The bunnygirl recoiled in fear as Weiss slowly set in towards her, still smiling serenely.
"Don't worry, this won't hurt a bit. This will hurt a lot."
Needless to say, Velvet's pleas for help filled the inn that night.
