Weiss was on the verge of falling asleep when a knock at the door interrupted her. After a long journey from Atlas, which included crash landing after dealing with a swarm of Lancers, and being held for ransom by a wandering group of bandits, whose leader just happened to be Yang's Mom, Weiss was exhausted. Sliding off of the bed in the rented house that Qrow managed to obtain, Weiss slowly walked over to the door. Whoever it was must have a good reason for waking her up in the middle of the night! They were going to Haven Academy tomorrow and put an end to whatever plot Cinder had in motion.

Opening the door slightly, Weiss was greeted to the sight of beautiful silver eyes, ones that she always delighted to stare into.

"Hey." Ruby gave her a smile, one that Weiss easily returned. It had been close to a year since they had last seen each other, and they were now different people. That much was obvious by Ruby's physical growth. Weiss could see how she was related to Yang, especially with the pajamas and tank-top she currently wore.

"Shouldn't you be sleeping with Yang. I'm sure you two have a lot to catch up on." Weiss smirked as she leaned against the doorway, crossing her arms which caused the sleeping shirt she borrowed from Ruby to expose part of her stomach, exposing her pale skin to the artificial breeze from the air conditioner. The pajama pants were Yang's, and were a few sizes too big and long for Weiss, but they were comfortable enough.

"Yeah, but she's snoooring so I won't be able to get any sleep." Ruby complained softly, careful enough to not wake anyone. Blake would have been able to catch every syllable with her superior hearing. "Plus you're a better cuddler!"

Weiss smiled while doing her best to hide her blush,and started to close the door. "Good night Ruby."

The dark haired girl stuck her leg in the gap, her aura protecting her from any bruising or injuries. "Wait!" Weiss opened the door again with a raised eyebrow. Ruby held a pillow she had brought out from behind her back and stared at the ground with a slight blush on her face.

"Can I sleep with you tonight?" Ruby squeaked as she held the pillow even closer. She was so cute.

"Of course, though I wasn't expecting the great Ruby Rose to be so straightforward. You should've brought me a bouquet of flowers and asked me out to dinner first." Weiss' teasing made Ruby's face and ears turn the same shade as her namesake.

"Weiiiiiissss!" Ruby whispered scandalously.

"All you had to do was ask." Weiss opened the door enough to allow Ruby to enter. Closing the door behind the dark haired girl, Weiss walked back to her borrowed bed and laid on it. She gave Ruby, who was still standing by the door, a head tilt. "What are you doing over there?" She patted the empty space to her side.

"Yay!" In a blur of roses, Ruby basically jumped onto the bed, and not even a few seconds later, the two were holding each other close, Ruby's head in the crook of Weiss' neck. She mumbled something under her breath.

"Hm? What did you say?" Weiss said, a small blush had turned her pale skin a shade of pink, with her arms wrapped around the scythe wielder.

"Are you worried about tomorrow?" Ruby said softly. She sounded worried, and apprehensive.

"Of course not. I'm sure everything will be fine." Weiss brushed a bang that blocked Ruby's eyes. "We're Team RWBY after all." More like RWY since Blake was still missing, but that was still more than half of the team. "With you as our fearless leader, anything is possible."

"Hehe you're so silly Weiss." Ruby sounded tired. "Can you sing me a lullaby? Like you used to?"

"Mhm." Weiss hummed. "I have a new one for you." Ruby enjoyed Weiss' singing, even back at Beacon, back when they were happy and life was normal as can be. Back when they were students playing heroes.

Ruby mumbled something that sounded like a yay. Weiss started to sing softly, just loud enough for Ruby to hear, but low enough to not disturb the others sleeping.

"There's a garden, where I go, if you meet me there no one will know…"

Everything would be just fine. They had each other after all.

"In the springtime, in the sun, we can be alone without anyone…"

Weiss formed a small smile at the sound of Ruby's light snores, she didn't even last a minute. Humming softly as she pressed her lips against the scythe-wielders forehead, Weiss felt her body relax for the first time in months. This was all she needed in life.

Everything was going to be fine.


Weiss was losing, there was no denying it. Even with her years of training, and honing her semblance, she stood no chance against the full might of the Spring Maiden, especially one that was an experienced bandit. Stupid Branwen tribe, stupid traitorous Lionheart! They could have worked together to defeat Cinder and Salem, but they chose to be criminals and traitors. Weiss hated them! But most of all, Weiss hated herself for being so weak. That still wouldn't stop her from doing her best. She wouldn't disappoint her Team, disappoint the remnants of Team JNPR, and especially not herself.

Weiss dodged a strike from the Spring Maiden's crescent blades, and parried a swing, using her glyphs to launch herself in the opposite direction of the bandit. Running a finger along Myrtenaster's blade as the Dust chamber rotated, the ancient Atlesian etching Weiss had carved herself on the blade came to life, turning the blade orange.

"Hyah!" Weiss swang Myrtenaster, unleashing a wave of flames directed towards her opponent. Vernal jumped back casually, avoiding the flames. She responded by firing a volley of bullets, forcing Weiss to form a glyph, the Dust chamber rotating to ice. A wall of ice rose from the glyph, providing her some measure of cover.

There was only one way Weiss could change the tide. Aiming the tip of Myrtenaster's blade towards the ground in front of her, a glyph appeared, one decorated with images of a very familiar sword. The Arma Gigas, the very one that gave Weiss her signature scar could help to turn the tide! The glyph parted like a door as armored arms started to pull themselves out.

It was half-formed when a yellow laser sliced through the ice wall, decapitating the weakened summon.

"Damn it!" Weiss muttered, barely raising Myrtenaster in time to block another swing from the bandit. Vernal's evil blue eyes stared into Weiss' own as their weapons locked together. Those few months in Atlas had turned her swordsmanship rusty, despite her best efforts to continue practicing.

There was only so much she could do without drawing too much attention from Father.

"Did you really think I was going to let you take the easy way out, Schnee?" The ugly woman growled. Not wanting to give the Criminal a response, Weiss narrowed her eyes and formed a black glyph beneath her, launching herself away from the Spring Maiden.

Vernal threw one of her crescent blades, forcing Weiss to form another glyph to deflect it midair. She caught her weapon easily, and started spraying bullets in Weiss' direction. Landing gracefully on the ground, Weiss launched herself back into the air, using Myrtenaster to deflect several bullets, and used her glyphs to dodge those that she couldn't with ease.

Launching herself away from Vernal again who tried getting closer, Weiss landed on the ground, stabbing it just barely with Myrtenaster. The summoning glyph returned, an arm was formed when Vernal struck, her crescent blades slicing through the half-formed arm and locking with Myrtenaster.

"You should have focused on fighting me instead of trying that again, you one trick beowolf." Vernal's feral grin would forever be locked into Weiss' nightmares. She fired a barrage of lasers straight at Weiss' chest, sending her flying through the air.

She struck the ground hard, shattering her aura as pain suddenly flooded her body. Gritting her bloodied teeth, Weiss forced herself to her knees, using Myrtenaster to assist her. She was definitely going to be feeling that when this was over, or at least until her aura returned to heal her bruises.

"No!" Weiss heard Jaune scream from across the commons, his voice pained. Before Weiss could even turn around, she gasped in pain. Something had pierced her side, each breath causing Weiss to wince and shiver from the pain. Looking down at the golden spear that had impaled her with wide eyes, Weiss felt like screaming, but no noise escaped her throat.

The golden spear disappeared, leaving a gaping, bloody hole in her side, with drops of her blood falling onto the ground. The ground rushed up to meet her.

'I'm sorry Ruby.'


"And this concludes our meeting." Batman said, standing up from his chair. Today's meeting had been a long one, but it was necessary.

"Finally! I thought it was never going to end." Flash complained as he stretched his back.

"Yeah me too." Captain Marvel added. That earned the two of them a glare that they both ignored.

"These meetings are to ensure that we are all on the same page." Diana spoke up this time. Each and every member were busy with their own cities, so the semi-monthly meetings were needed to inform everyone of any updates as needed.

"Agreed." Clark crossed his hands over his chest.

Just as Flash opened his mouth to retort, a bright light that appeared out of nowhere blinded Batman's eyes who immediately grabbed his cape to shield himself. A loud thud came soon after, and the light disappeared as soon as it came. A bloodied body was thrown onto their conference table.

"Medic!"

Welcome to another of my Weissikais!I felt inspired to write this after watching the RWBY x Justice League movie. While not the best, I had funish and enjoyed Jessica Cruz even if a lot of other elements were weak.
