"THAT WAS SO... FREAKING... COOL!" Blake gushed as she stared at her hands in astonishment.
Weiss smiled at her friend's enthusiasm. "Yeah, that was kind of awesome."
Blake giggled as she covered her mouth, only to have her hair stick back up. She felt a small jolt release out of her body into the air, "Oh no."
Weiss tilted her head, "Oh gods, not agai-"
The power shut down again. Everyone gasped once more.
"YEAH!!!! IT'S BACK!!!" Nora yelled in the darkness.
"NORA!" Ren yelled.
"Sorry, Ren!" She replied.
"God dammit, Blake." Weiss said.
"I'm sorry!" She whined, "I can't help it!"
Weiss patted her back, "Just focus again and let's get out of here."
The ravenette nodded and reached for the same light switch. She channeled her aura and brought the rest back into her palms until there was none present in the system.
The lights slowly flickered back to life and the sound of students groaning in unison echoed through the hall.
"Wow, I disappointed a lot of people," Blake smiled.
"You seem proud," Weiss commented.
Blake shrugged, "I am."
The Ice Queen tried to stifle her laugh, "Let's get out of here before you cause another power surge, Sparky."
"SO NOW YOU'RE THE ONE WHO MAKES THE NICKNAMES?!" Aphrodite shouted.
Weiss rolled her eyes, "Get over it."
The two walked through the halls to the exit. Before they could leave the building, Ruby pulled them aside. "Wanna go to the mall right now?"
"Sure!" Blake agreed.
Weiss stared at Blake, "Are you sure you don't want to practice first?"
Blake glanced at Weiss, "I'll be fine, I'll just be more aware this time."
"Why not?" Weiss said.
"GREAT! By the way, JNPR is tagging along!" Ruby beamed.
"Fine," Weiss put her hands on her hips, "but Jaune better stay away from me."
"No promises," Ruby said.
"Is Yang coming?" Blake asked.
Red shook her head, "She's on a date."
"Maybe we'll see her there," Weiss said.
"Yeah!" Ruby enthusiastically yelled, "I want to meet them!"
JNPR walked over to the three. "Ready to go?" Jaune asked.
Ruby pumped her fist in the air, "Let's go!!!"
After school, RWBY and JNPR headed to the mall. It was a busy day; citizens were bustling about, trying to get home from their jobs. The sun was shining and burning onto the sidewalk pavement. The group passed many tall buildings and markets.
Ruby beamed, "This is the perfect day to be outside!"
"It's wonderful," Pyrrha commented.
Jaune walked beside Weiss, "Hey, Snow Angel."
Weiss was taken aback by her nickname and scowled, "Don't call me that. Ever. Call me Fi-, I mean, Weiss."
Jaune grinned and blushed, "Okay, sorry Weiss."
