FRIDAY

"BeaconHS_Assassins2015: You have until 5 PM to get your target to make it to round three! GOOD LUCK!"

She frowned when she received the beacon. She had all week to catch her target, but they were an elusive one. There was no way she would get out by not hitting her target on time, since she went through so much trouble just to get back in.

She was sitting in the classroom, which was mostly silent during a study hall. Little did she know, a certain blonde's eyes had been watching her for quite a while.

"Yo, princess." Yang leaned in, "What're you scowling about now?"

Weiss glared at the blonde, took her phone out of her lap and set it on the table. "The latest beacon..."

"Oh, are you having trouble?" Yang grinned, "I could totally help, you know."

The offer peaked the white-haired girl's interest. "What's the catch?"

"You know me so well~" the blonde sang. "You know how you're buying Ozzy burritos for a month?"

Weiss' eyebrows raised, "How did you know that?"

"He went through the school hallways this morning and kept shouting, 'WEISS IS BUYING ME BURRITOS FOR A MONTH! SUCK ON THAT!'" Yang giggled, "Kinda hard to miss."

"Your point?" Weiss impatiently asked.

"I want you to buy me burritos for a month!" Yang declared.

The Ice Queen gave her a glare, "And what's in it for me?"

"You get more help," Yang said. "Neptune is already on your side. If you let me help out, you get Ruby as well. It's kinda like a two in one deal. Plus, I've noticed that you're struggling."

Weiss scoffed, "And you have been doing so well."

"I actually have. Blake, Ruby and I took down my assassin AND target yesterday." Yang replied, "Since I know my assassin, I see no reason I shouldn't help you out," she paused. "And get burritos in the process..."

"Fine," the Ice Queen reluctantly agreed. "Who's your assassin? You know, so we can watch out for them."

Yang gave her a sly grin, "Yatsuhashi Daichi."

"Tough guy..." Weiss muttered.

"If we are going to do this before five tonight, I need to know your target." Yang said.

The white-haired girl sighed and whispered, "It's Ren."

Yang's eyes widened, "Oh god...that's gonna be tough."

"Very," a glimmer of hope in Weiss' eyes, "but now I have you, Neptune, and Ruby."

"Exactly," the blonde replied. "Just be sure not to tell anyone, especially Blake."

"Of course," Weiss said.

"Do you think Cardin would want to help?" Yang asked.

Weiss' expression turned to a glower, "He would want to get revenge. But let's not tell him, no one likes him."

"Good point," the blonde agreed.

The bell rang for class to end and the two sauntered through the halls crowded with people.

"Oh god," Yang said as she gazed at the floor. "Remember when you jumped on top of me here?"

"YOU DESERVED IT!" Weiss accused, "I'll find some dirt on you some day..."

Yang smirked, "Yeah, good luck with that. But to be fair, I guess I did deserve it."

A certain thought weighed on Weiss' mind. "You did, but what's the other catch?"
