RWBY - New Horizon

Chapter 15 - The badge

The following morning as Weiss sleeps peacefully in her bed she is suddenly jolted awake by the piercing call of a whistle. Turning to the source of the sudden noise she finds her three other teammates already dressed in the academy standard uniform comprised of a red plaid skirt, stockings and a brown jacket with a tan vest and white shirt underneath with a red ribbon tied at the collar. As Weiss grumbled about the rude awakening from the floor, Ruby stepped onto the heiress's bed before announcing good morning team RWBY.

While the others wore the standard uniform, Ruby had taken the liberty to sling her trademark hooded cape over the top of the brown jacket.

"What in the world is wrong with you?" questioned Weiss while still laying on the floor.

"Now that you're awake, we can officially begin our first order of business."

"Excuse me?"

Before the heiress can question further her attention is snapped to the older sister as she announces the first order of the day as decorating while Yang currently has her arms full of various posters, pillows, hair care products and various other knick-knacks that appear to belong to the two sisters.

While Weiss still tries to understand what is still idled by sleep going on Blake raises her still shut case reminding them they also need to unpack and as soon as the words leave her lips Blake's bag falls open scattering luggage over the floor.

"And clean up."

Ruby quickly blows the whistle once again in Weiss's face knocking the Heiress back over before Ruby begins her attempt at an uplifting speech.

"Alight! Weiss, Yang, Blake and their fearless leader Ruby have begun their first mission. Banzai!"

With this, Yang also exclaims Banzai while Blake gives a slightly less enthusiastic Banzai much to the young heiress's frustration.

The group then set out to make their room more personal with Yang attaching posters to the wall while Weiss also adds a fancy looking painting to the opposite wall. Blake neatly arranges her books on the bookshelf under the window before pulling out a certain black and red book titled 'Ninja's of love' which she promptly clings to her chest in embarrassment before quickly hiding it back in her case. Ruby also attempts to hang up curtains by the window, but due to her short stature, she uses crescent rose as an extension to hook the curtains up to the curtain rail. Proud of her work Ruby spins on the balls of her feet, but due to her weapon still being laid on her shoulder the blade easily slices through the fabric of the curtains.

With everything put away and the curtain reassembled with disorganized stitching and staples the four look at their room complacent of their accomplishment until Weiss raises the problem of the beds since there is now no room to lay the beds out side by side with all the clutter in the room.

"This isn't going to work."

"It is a bit cramped."

"Maybe we should ditch some of our stuff."

"Or ditch the beds... Oh, and replace them with bunk beds!"

At their leader's unusual plan, Weiss points out that this 'plan' sound incredibly dangerous but Yang chips in that it also sounds super awesome. With Blake agreeing that this would be more efficient the four set out to convert their beds into bunk beds albeit with Wiess reluctantly helping with the sounds of sped up construction filling the room.

Having finished the makeshift construction, Ruby happily cheers that their objective has been complete as the four look upon the fruits of their hard work. One side being Blake and Yang's one bed is laid on top of the other with multiple books stacked together acting as a makeshift prop. The other side being Ruby and Weiss's are not connected at the legs. Instead, Ruby's bed being precariously hung from the rafters above with a criss-cross of haphazard ropes and pulleys.
