Across The Stars ( RWBY AU )

Chapter 3: Assignment

Early the next week, the group of friends can be seen chatting to one another, leisurely eating their fill of morning delights. Yang and weiss are arguing to one another, same as always, while the rest are busy exchanging stories from their recent grimm extermination on the outskirts of vale. there activities were interrupted when the school's inter-com system suddenly came to life and a stern voice can be heard coming out of it, getting the attention of the students gathered in the mess hall.

"May teams, RWBY and JNPR, please head on over to the headmaster's office. I repeat. May teams, RWBY and JNPR, please head on over to the headmaster's office, thank you."

The voice of none other than professor glynda goodwitch, informed the students that are assembled in the hall. The teams in question look at each other to try and find the answers to why they were being summoned so early in the morning. They haven't even done anything to warrant the professor's attention... yet.

"Well come on guys, let's find out why we're getting called in for." Ruby says to the group, she gets up and gathers her tray and drops it off on the way out. The rest followed suit and joins her to the exit of the building.

"So, what you guys think were being gathered to the headmaster's office for?" Yang inquires her friends, slowly approaching the office of their headmaster, which is located at the top of the CCTS tower.

"I don't know. But something tells me, it has something to do with the whole 'ruby blowing up the cafeteria with cookie mix' fiasco a couple of days ago." Blake responded, giving her two cents to yang's question.

"Yup, go figures." She shakes her head, disappointingly, at her sisters antic.

"Hey! its not my fault that was gonna happen. I was just using my semblance to speed things up!" She grumbles. Remembering that fateful day.

"Uh ruby... Darling, I don't think that's such a good idea."

Jaune warns her beloved, looking at the way she uses her semblance to mix the batter at subsonic speed. The entirety of the dorms kitchen was a mess. Spoons, ladles, spatula, and whisk are hanging off the walls while some are embedded two inches deep on the ceiling. Flour and baking powder littered the whole area and clothes of the two.

"Nah, it's fine. It's not like I'm gonna bring the whole place down on us." She dismissively said, looking up at him, her face is covered with cookie batter and powder seemingly floating above her head.

And then, as if though the brother gods themselves were listening in on her. The untouched edge of the metal ladle she is using to stir the batter at maximum speed, made contact with the upper edge of the metal bowl resulting in a tiny spark that touches and egnites the floating powder in the air, When they notice this it was already to late. Jaune was looking at her with a face that she can only describe as 'I told you so.'

"Ehehe, sorry?"

Is the only thing she said before the entire room they were in combusted, spraying cookie batter at the already messy walls of the kitchen with them included.

"And then after that, professor goodwitch ordered the whole team to clean up the mess you made. My fingers still hurts from all the scrubing."

Weiss looks at her hand and remembers the ordeal she went through. All that scrubbing and scraping, yet the stubborn thing hasn't even budge with the amount of force she applied to the stuck batter on the walls.

'WHAT WAS THAT THING MADE OUT OF!' She internally screamed, wondering how her team leader made such a resilient substance out of cookie batter.

"Ok guys there's a lesson to be taught here, when someone says it's not a good idea, it usually means it's not a good idea." Jaune says to everyone. While also turning his head to ruby with an all knowing look.
