A Trading of Hearts: Cold becomes Warm, and Warm becomes Cold Vol. 1

Round Two! Proceeding On!

Y/N POV

After Yang's and my Street Fighter match last night I, we had both gone to our dorms and gave each other our farewells til tomorrow. Yang's next match was tomorrow and my team had already talked about who to send to the doubles rounds. We had all come to an equal agreement it would be Sapphire and I.

I walked inside my dorm room to see Brans and Blake smiling and talking while holding a book in their hands. "Brans I didn't know you read books," I said aloud. Both of them jump a bit and flinch before sighing and relaxing at seeing it was me.

"Y/N! You scared us!" Blake exclaimed looking to me with a small blush.

"I can see that. Any reason why Brans is holding a book willingly?" I ask looking at the two of them with a small knowing smirk. Both of them blushed a bright red and began to stutter a bunch of nonsense. I chuckle to myself and walk to my bed.

"Well Brans here asked me if I could help him with any recommendations on books," Blake said nervously. Her face still a light rosey red from my comment from earlier. I chuckle slightly before turning around and waving them off.

"Well in that case, I'll be at the library. I can pick up a couple books too. Maybe join the club. Anyways, I gotta get to the arena. I'll see you guys there! By the way, I ship it," I finished before finally taking my leave. Leaving Blake to blush and Brans to have a confused look on his face.

Sapphire POV

Ruby and I were walking around the festival before Yang's and Weiss' match was up. We decided to see what food booths there were, and what other things we could see coming in from around the world. Though, today, our main focus was placed on the food court area. Many restaurants had booths around. Including the popular ones like Caboose and Freckles fast food, Tucker's sushi, and Grif's donuts.

We continued to look around until we heard that Yang's and Weiss' match was coming up. We looked to each other and grinned. "Beat you there!" Ruby yelled before she started running to the arena.

"Hey! No fair!" I yelled before running after her. Chasing her on the way to the arena. Slowly but surely, I was gaining some ground before I was neck and neck with her. She looked at me before sticking her tongue out and using her semblance to go faster.

Soon I had caught up to her and bent over to catch my breath. I sprinted nonstop just to catch back up with her. "Rosebud," I started. She looked to me and giggled nervously at me. I grab her hood and put it over her face. "Now we're even," I say before going to our seats.

As we had joined up with the others, we saw Y/N holding up a sign cheering for Yang. I look to Ruby who was smiling at Y/N. In truth, I could not help myself from smiling either. After the obstacle he had just gone through, it is quite a nice change to see him smiling and cheering Yang on.

When we looked towards the fight we saw Yang fighting Neon and Weiss was fighting Flint. Neon had been taunting Yang about her body shape. Saying something about her being top heavy. While on the other end, Flint was telling Weiss his life story. How his father ran a dust shop which was taken down by Weiss' father. If I was being honest, it doesn't surprise me in the slightest that her father would do that. What with all those sketchy partners that he has been making deals with. How he would have some sort of vengeance if he beat Weiss.

Yang was getting frustrated at Neon. All the teases and all the comments starting to get to her head before she released her semblance and sort of evening up the playing field. Weiss ended up low on Aura just before the red. Allowing her to stay in the match before she pushed Flint into a geyser and knocking him out. Leaving Yang to deal with Neon. Which she handled with just a dust shot when Neon was blasted into the air by a geyser.
