Assassins

Giggity Giggity Gotcha!

WEDNESDAY

"So, what's your plan to kill me?" Weiss asked the faunus.

Blake couldn't help but laugh. "Yeah, like I'll tell you."

"You guys are gonna go at it, aren't ya?" Yang grinned.

"You better watch your cute ears and your back, Belladonna, because I'm coming after you," Weiss teasingly threatened.

"What? Are you going to have your minions do your dirty work as always?" Blake countered with a smirk.

A crowd slowly formed once again as Weiss and Blake had their staredown and "ooooooh'd" at the burn.

"Of course not," Weiss huffed. "In the end, I'll have to shoot you."

"I'd watch yourself 24/7 then..." Blake leaned in. "Because I refuse to lose."

"Fine," the white-haired girl huffed. "We'll see who ends up cracking under pressure first."

The two knew that now the game was just as much psychological as it was physical. They needed to pull out all their guns, literally and figuratively.

Pyrrha sighed. "Woah, things are getting heated..."

Yang whispered in Pear's ear. "Whose side are you on?"

Pyrrha held her chin in thought and she glanced back between Weiss and Blake. "I would have to say Blake just because she didn't shoot me. What about you?"

"I want both to win, but if I had to pick, Weiss." Yang replied.

"Why?" Pear was shocked the blonde wasn't on the kitten's side.

Yang shrugged. "Don't you think it would be hilarious if that tiny thing won?" the blonde laughed. "Oh, god. Beating EVERYONE, even against the big, tough, burly guys."

"That would be funny, but her reason for winning sucks!" Pear whined.

"We all had our own selfish reasons for winning," the blonde said. "But I do agree that she's the last person that needs the money."

"You never told me how good she was." Pear reminded.

Yang's eyes shifted to Weiss. "Maybe your level. I wish you saw the battle."

"So, no one else knows that she's pretending to be horrible?" Pear asked.

"Yep," Yang said while popping the p. "They just know she's good at strategy...but she knows I know, and I bet she already knows that I told you at some point."

That sent a shiver up Pear's spine. "Still betting on Blake."

Weiss was walking in the hallway towards her next class. She had a strange feeling that someone had been following her since the day started. She wasn't sure who was following her, but she felt a pair of eyes on her at all times.

I bet it's either Blake or a person on her side...good thing they can't do anything in school. This is just all part of her plan...too bad, Belladonna! You'll be the one to crack first!

Weiss sped up her pace to get further away from the rhythmic footsteps tailing her. Once she turned a corner, she stopped in her tracks, intent on getting a view of the stalker.

Once the stalker followed Weiss around the corner, the Ice Queen spun on her heel and caught a glimpse of red hair before the figure dove into the nearest trashcan. The trashcan tipped over with the stalker in it and caused a loud commotion.

Weiss walked over and placed her hands on her hips as she looked down at the stalker. "Dammit, Pyrrha! You're on Blake's side?"

"Eheheh," Pear barely managed a laugh as she tried to wiggle out of the trashcan. "Surprise?"
