(your POV)

After a long walk, I finally managed to get to the docks. On the way I passed a bakery that sold cookies at half price if I bought a dozen. Ruby is going to love this. I'm a little surprised that I bought the cookies instead of stealing them. I suppose Ruby is a good influence for my he-he. Now I just have to find the others.

Yang: Big bro, over here!

I look at the place where my sister called me and she and the rest of the RWBY team were under a sign that said "welcome to vale".

Me(mind): That was fast.

Me: Sup girls!

Blake: Hello.

Ruby: Hi (y/n)!

Weiss: Yeah yeah, can we keep going?

Yang: Hey (y/n). Wait, what is in the bag?

Me: Oh, this bag? It's just a bag that has a dozen of chocolate and strawberry cookies.

Ruby: Can I have one!? Pleeeeeeeaaaasssseeee!

Me: The bag was for you Ruby. So yeah, I guess you can have more than one.

Ruby jumps up and hugs me tightly as she hangs on my neck. If it were lower, right now Ruby would be hanging me by the force that she is applying in the hug. 

Ruby: YOU ARE THE BEST (Y/N)!

Me: Ruby... Personal space please.

Ruby let's go of me and her face takes on a little crimson color. Is she catching a cold or something?

Ruby: S-Sorry (y/n)!

Me: It's ok. Anything for my flower princess. How are your arms Yang?

Yang: I still have to use the bandages but thanks to my aura, they are much better.

Weiss: CAN WE CONTINUE PLEASE!?

Me: *whispering* What's her deal?

Ruby: *whispering* Don't know.

Weiss: The vytal festival! Oh this is absolutely wonderful!

Ruby: I don't think I have ever seen you smile this much Weiss. It's kinda weirding me out...

Me: That shows that the ice queen has a human heart after all.

Weiss: Shut up you dunce!

Me: And just when I thought we would get along. 

Weiss: *ignoring me* How could you not smile? A festival dedicated to the cultures of the world! There will be dances, parades, a tournament! Oh the amount of planning and organization that goes into this event is simply breath taking.

Yang: *sigh* You really know how to take a good thing and make it sound boring.

Me: Welp, she is the ice queen after all.

Weiss: Quiet you.

Yang: Remind me again why we are spending our Friday afternoon visiting the stupid docks?

Ruby: Ugh, they smell like fish.

Me: It smells better than the food that Martel cooks.

Blake: Is that bad her cooking?

Me: Eating your own boots is healthier than eating her food.

Weiss: I've heard that students visiting from Vacuo will be arriving by ship today. And as a representative of Beacon I feel as though it is my solemn duty to welcome them to this fine kingdom.

Blake: She wants to spy on the so she'll have the upper hand in the tournament.

Me: That's the ice queen we all know and love.

Weiss: Ah! You can't prove that!

Me: We are on a docks. waiting for students we do not know from another academy when we have no obligation to receive them.

Weiss: Thats not-

Ruby: Whoa!

We all focus our attention on where Ruby was looking. It was a stolen dust shop, which was also smashed from head to toe. It seems that my good friend Roman was busy with his job. I walk next to a ruby where the policemen are standing.

Ruby: What happened here?

Detective1: Robbery. Second Dust shop to be hit this week. This place is turning into a jungle. 

Yang: *scoughs* That's terrible.

Detective 2: They left all the money again.

Me(mind): That's odd.

Ruby: Huh?

Detective1: Yeah, just doesn't make a lick of sense. Who needs that much dust?

Detective2: I dunno, ya know what I mean?

Detective1: You thinking the uh, White Fang?

Detective2: I was thinking about the dragon of greed.

Detective1: I heard that he was arrested and executed in atlas.

Me(mind): Best police officers ever.

Detective2: Right now I'm thinking we don't get paid enough.

Weiss: Hmph. The White Fang. What an awful bunch of degenerates.

Blake: What's your problem?

Weiss: My problem? I simply don't care for the criminally insane. 

Me: Auch. I'll be a reformed criminal, but I'm not crazy.

Blake: The White Fang is hardly a bunch of psychopaths. They're a collection of misguided faunus.

Me/Weiss: Misguided!?

Weiss: They want to wipe humanity off the face of the planet!

Blake: So then they are "very" misguided.

Me: The White Fang uses the excuse of seeking equality in order to justify their actions of violence towards innocent people. It reminds me of an old assassin named Scar.

Blake: Either way, it doesn't explain why they would rob a dust shop in the middle of downtown Vale.

Ruby: Hmm.  Blake's got a point. Besides, the police never caught that Torchwick guy I ran into a few months ago...

Me(mind): Roman is VEEEERRRYYYY lucky that nothing happened to Ruby that night. 

Weiss: That still doesn't change the fact that the White Fang are a bunch of scum. Those faunus only know how to lie, cheat, and steal.

Me: Now, that's just racist.

Yang: And is not necessarily true.

???: Hey! Stop that faunus!

We all ran to the railing of the docks and saw how in the prow of a boat there was a monkey faunus running of two policemen.

Monkey: Thanks for the ride, Guys!

Me: That guy looks like the third-class thief type. It simply makes crimes as if they were the pranks of a child, but at first it is fun but then it becomes tedious because of the attention yo-

I was interrupted when the same monkey crashed into me while he was running away from the cops and made my bag with cookies fall to the ground. Before I could lift the bag from the ground, the two detectives stepped on it as they chased the monkey, crushing all the cookies. I could feel the blood in my head swelling the veins in my forehead.

Ruby: NOOOO! THE COOKIES!

Me: *eye twitching*...

Ruby: Big bro?

Me: He.Is.SO.DEAD!

I started running as fast as I could while chasing that damn faunus. When I catch him, I'm going to make him suffer the same pain that those innocent cookies suffered.

Detective 1: Stop right the-

Me: OUT OF MY WAY IDIOTS!

I hit both detectives away from my path so I could run faster and they ended up next to trash cans. He turned around in a corner trying to escape from me, but when I turned to follow him I collided with an orange haired girl and we fell together to the ground. When I looked up he had already climbed on the roofs and escape.

Me: What a "Great Day". (Mecha: Wink)

???: Of course it's a great day, sir.

Yang: Hey big bro, do you need some privacy♪?

Ruby: *angry* GET OFF FROM HER, (Y/N)!

I got up quickly and turned away from the girl I had just knocked over by accident. That was embarrassing.

???: Salutations!

Me: Um... Hi. Sorry for bumping you.

???: It's okay.

Yang: Are you... okay?

???: I'm wonderful. Thank you for asking.

Yang: Do you... wanna get up?

This girl is strange on many levels. She seems to be thinking if it is a good idea to get up off the ground or if it is better to lie there.

???: Yes.

She quickly makes a jump, allowing her to get back on her feet while we go back to give space to this ginger girl.

Penny: My name is Penny. It's a pleasure to meet you!

Ruby: Hi penny. I'm Ruby.

Weiss: I'm Weiss

Blake: Blake

Me: I'm Greed.

Ruby: He is (y/n).

Me: *mumble*

Ruby: What was that?

Me: Nothing.

Yang: Are you sure you didn't hit your head? *gets a elbow in stomach by Blake* Oh, I'm Yang.

Penny: It's a pleasure to meet you!

Weiss: You already said that.

Penny: So I did!

Me: Then again, sorry for running into you.

Ruby: Take care, friend!

We walk away and go back to our previous talk.

Yang: She was... weird.

Me: She was funny.

Weiss: Now. Where did that faunus riffraff run off to.

We all stop walking when Penny appears in front of us, literally appearing out of nowhere. Me and Weiss looked frantically back and forth, trying to understand how Penny appeared in front of us.

Penny: What did you call me?

Me: Yaaaannngg.

Yang: Oh, I'm really sorry, I definitely didn't think you heard me.

Penny: No, not you.

She walked past Yang and stood in front of Ruby.

Penny: You!

Ruby: Me? I-I don't know, I- what I- um.

Penny: You called me "friend". Am I really your friend? 

Ruby: Uummmm...

Ruby looked at us trying to come up with some response. While the others shook their hands in denial, I held up my thumb while retaining a monotone expression.

Ruby: Ya, sure! Why not?

The rest of the rwby team fell comically at the decision of their leader while I tried to contain the need to explode in laughter.

Penny: Ahaha! Sen-sational! We can paint our nails, and try on clothes, and tallk about cute boys!

Me: You will not do that last part in my guard.

Ruby: Excuse my brother, he's a little overprotective.

Penny: He sounds like my cousin, his name is Mecha and he likes bad jokes a lot.

(Mecha: How did I get in here again?)

Yang: Maybe one day you can introduce him to me and get me a date with your cousin. 

Me: Nope. No cute stranger guys for either of them.

Yang: Soo, what are you doing in Vale?

Penny: I'm here to fight in the tournament. 

Weiss: Wait... you're fighting in the tournament?

Penny: I'm combat ready!

Weiss: Forgive me, but you hardly look the part.

Blake: Says the girl wearing a dress.

Me: Oh, here we go again.

Weiss: It's a "combat skirt"

Ruby appears quickly next to Weiss and give her a low high five.

Ruby: Yeah!

Weiss: Wait a minute. If you are here for the tournament, does that mean you know that monkey-tailed... rapscallion?

Penny: The who?

Weiss: *showing a picture of him* The filthy faunus from the boat! 

Me: When did you draw that?

Blake: Why do you keep saying that? Stop calling him a rapscallion. Stop callin him a degenerate. He is a person!

Weiss: Oh, I'm sorry. Would you like me to stop referring to the trashcan as a trashcan, or this lamppost as a lamppost?

Blake: Stop it!

Weiss: Stop what?

Me: *mind* This is going to be a great day.

(Mecha wink)

(Time skip night)

Basically the fight between Weiss and Blake over the white fang continued throughout the afternoon, for a point I had to deal with other issues with my team and abandon Ruby and Yang. While Roa was completely traumatized by his date with Miss Goodwitch, who apparently has very ... peculiar tastes. Dolcetto was not in the dorm, that's strange. Right now both Roa and Martel were sleeping, I was preparing to do the same until I heard someone knocking on the door. I approached the door and listened to the sound of sobs.

Me: Who is it?

Ruby: *sob* I-It's me.

Me: Ruby?

The moment I opened the door, Ruby quickly entered the room and hugged me while letting tears fall from her eyes.

Me: Whoa! What happened?

Ruby: B-Blake is a f-faunus, and s-she leave t-the dorm, a-and-

Me: Okay. I'll help you look for Blake tomorrow. For now try to sleep.

Ruby: Can I sleep here? Please, I also had a horrible nightmare.

Me: That explains why you knock on my door at one in the morning.

Ruby: Sorry.

I lie on my bed and make a place for Ruby to sleep next to me.

Me: Well, what are you waiting for? Get in.

Ruby: *blushing* T-There? Can't I use the empty bed?

Me: That's Dolcetto's bed. He could come back in the night and find you in his place.

Ruby: O-Ok.

Ruby lies down on my bed, while I cover her with the sheets so she does not get cold during the night. The moment I finish covering her with the sheets, Ruby embrace me and bury her head on my chest.

Ruby: Good night, big bro.

Me: Good night, Flower princess.

After a few minutes, let the darkness of the night cover me. I just hope I do not have to talk to Selim again.

AAANNNDDD DONE!!!

Cinder: Now that was a strenuous chapter. today I will be the one to make the farewell at the end of each chapter. You see, our dear writer Mecha has been very busy with his work lately. That makes it more complicated for him to write, especially when he tries to make the chapters longer so that you can enjoy them more.

Cinder: I hope you understand that even a cyborg needs to rest from time to time.

Mecha: *doors burst open* All right! *pant* I'm here for my characteristic phrase.

Cinder: I told you to take a rest!

Mecha: I know, I know. Shall we do it together?

Cinder: *sigh* Fine.

Cinder/Mecha: I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Cinder: I feel weird saying that all the time.

Mecha: You'll get used to it.
