The knight and the one she escorts

Day one of seven

Weiss POV

It had been around two hours since Ruby and Weiss got on the airship still holding hands both of them not wanting to let go. There was talking between the two but not much both of them where enjoying each others company. So they just sat there and thought to themselves Weiss thoughts where full of Ruby like how happy she was to be able to hold Ruby's hand like this. She was also thinking if she let me hold her hand then maybe she feels the same way about me this really is my chance. Ruby was thinking how cool it was of Weiss to be so forward and grab her hand like that maybe Weiss well tell me how she feels about me and ask me out I hope so I've been waiting so long for this. Was what the two where thinking it was quiet the entire airship ride until a man came out into the seating area.

"To all passengers getting off at oak tree village we will be arriving shortly if this is your stop please prepare your things" Weiss looked at Ruby to ask her something.

"Hey Ruby is this our stop" Ruby looked up at Weiss with a big smile and said it was she looked more then a little excited. "Okay so where do we go from here do we catch another airship"

"No after we land we have a lot of walking to do this is the only airship we will be taking we have at least six hours of walking ahead of us so it's" Ruby paused to look at her scroll for the time. "9:07 AM right now so at around 3:00 PM we should find a place to rest and then continue for about two more hours" Weiss was a little overwhelmed by how much walking they would be doing she knew the grave was far but she had hoped the airship would have taken them farther.

"Are you kidding me how far did this thing take us. Wait a second if we are going though this village then where are we going to sleep don't tell me where sleeping outside."

"Weiss you don't have to worry about that there are a total of three villages until we reach patch" Ruby held three fingers up with her left hand still holding on to Weiss's hand with her right she was putting down one finger as she went though the villages. "Oak tree village the one we will be landing in is one the next one is about eight hours away it's called pine tree village and then six house away is maple tree village. So the plan is to get from oak tree village to pine tree today and then tomorrow from pine tree to maple to patch it's about three hour from maple to patch. Then once at patch we can spend three days there and get home with the remaining two days see essay right." Weiss was not looking forward to all the walking they would be doing but more then anything had a question

"Okay I got all that but let me just ask what's with all the villages having some kind of tree name and why doesn't patch have one." It was a simple question one Weiss thought Ruby would have the answer for but sadly Weiss didn't get what she wanted.

"I don't know cause there's a lot of trees maybe" Weiss was about to say how stupid she thought that was she was hoping for something but she lost her chance the airship had reached a stop it seams while Ruby and Weiss where talking they had made it to Oak tree village with them now fully stopped Weiss dropped the topic getting ready to get off. Not really wanting to Weiss let go of Ruby's hand to get up and grab her luggage with her weapon Ruby did the same putting her remaining cookies in her backpack. After they both had there things they headed for the exit Ruby was the first to step off with Weiss right behind her what Weiss saw was breathtaking she was convinced she hadn't seen anything more gorgeous besides Ruby of course she was number one. Ruby was walking in front of Weiss not that she noticed cause no matter where Weiss looked all she saw was nature. There was trees on either side of her with nothing but flowers covering the base's of the trees as she began to walk from the airship to the front of the village. She could hear birds chirping and singing from the trees that where everywhere. As they got closer to the village she could see a big wooden gate with oak tree village on it once inside Weiss was once again taking aback at what she saw. Even inside the village trees where everywhere they lined the edge of the village almost making a gate out of trees all the buildings where made out of wood shops house's everything. But what really caught Weiss's eye was a few dozen feet in front of her she saw a round wooden water fountain after seeing it Weiss went up to get a better look leaving Ruby behind. Once Weiss was there she saw wood carvings on the base of the fountain of bears dear birds all kind of animals. Weiss assumed this was a wishing fountain since coins had been thrown in the fountain as Weiss was looking at all the little details such as the carvings and the one water spout it had at the top a man walked up to Weiss.
