Chapter 55: RWBY Ice Queendom (3)
~Third POV~
Negative Weiss soon comes out from her alleyway to capture Ruby as she takes off her glasses Ruby gets defensive but tries to reason with her with a small smile on her face, "Weiss! I finally found you!"
"Be silent!"
"Huh?"
Being caught off guard from this Ruby still has her guard up recalling how Negative Jack from the Team JNPR story was fighting him she held her guard as Weiss began to talk, "Who gave you permission to speak? An immature child, a rowdy child without even the most basic manners, wandering around without permission. What an embarrassment you are."
Silence envelops the two with Ruby pausing and her emotions getting the better of her responding to her offended, "I knew it… You're embarrassed to be around me!"
Weiss then replied coldly to Ruby while she began to get guidance through the book she carries looking for answers, "I told you to be silent. All right, Sister Winter, your verdict."
Opening the book, it shows a shadowy figure of Winter inside the book as she spoke out in echoes of the verdict, "The powerless returns to Dust. The wicked will wander the void. Punish the traitor to the Empire, and land imprison them for eternity."
*Clap*
Closing her book Negative Weiss puts it away on a robot dog Klein she brandishes her weapon out towards Ruby she gave a warning to her, "Prepare yourself, Ruby!"
*Shing*
*Woosh*
Waving her weapon out on Ruby as a small snow cloud rushed out of her direction Ruby began to talk to Weiss letting her emotions go high, "It was all a lie, wasn't it? About wanting bunk beds, about accepting me as a leader. Even Blake! We're doing this for you, Weiss!"
After Ruby's outburst, she readies her dream weapon but she lets go a tear after seeing her teammate's views on them high on emotions, "But I don't care anymore. I'll snap you out of it, and then I'll never talk to you ever again!"
Weiss expressed a sad frown at the news.
She took immediate retaliation as her Myrtenaster activated using an Ice Dust as her sword burned ablaze with ice magic inside the Ice Dust as she swung her blade at Ruby which she evaded just in time.
*BOOM*
The massive slash attack managed to destroy the buildings that were in Ruby's way as she avoided it using her semblance <Petal Burst> in time jumping from building to building with her semblance to avoid being attacked herself.
*Swoosh*
*Swoosh*
*Swoosh*
Just as Ruby ran Negative Weiss followed using her Semblance <Glyphs> as she used them to propel herself and create placemats for her to land and jump to catch up to Ruby as she found her within her sights.
*SWOOSH*
She jumped off her <Glyph> as she activated her Myrtenaster activating Fire Dust and with her <Glyphs> to create a beam-like attack following after Ruby destroying anything that would be in her way.
*Boom*
*Boom*
Ruby seeing this jumped to the air using her weapon she hasn't tried much to block it as the dust beams trailing her clashed against her weapon as Ruby enhanced it with her <Aura> but…
*BOOM*
"Ahh!"
Ruby couldn't hold out at Negative Weiss's attacks managed to harm her sending her flying down to the Atlas Dystopian city crashing into a roof then recoiling on a wall than to a stone floor covered in snow.
Ruby managed to quickly regain her consciousness she held out two coins in her hand she began to use the two coins.
*Thud*
*Shiii*
*Thud*
*Shiii*
Ruby used her first coin to create a door leading to an escape and another as a decoy to distract Negative Weiss from coming to attack her.
"I don't care anymore."
"I don't care anymore."
"I don't care any – "
*SHING*
That was when the decoy got slashed up as Negative Weiss appeared she ran towards where the real Ruby was she spoke out angrily, "I won't let you get away!"
*Thud*
/////
*Thud*
Slamming the door from the other side as Ruby caught a breather to herself as she questioned, "Was Weiss always this tough?"
Standing up again Ruby glances at her hand to reveal one last coin as she talks to herself, "The last coin… I'll use it to escape."
Nodding to herself she began to jump down and run further looking into the Atlas version city of Weiss as she talked to herself, "But I can't run yet. I have to do something about Weiss."
As Ruby ran, she was unaware that she passed an Alley Way that in the shadow showed Negative Weiss as she responded to Ruby's comment, "No, we're going to do something about you."
"Gasp!"
Ruby gasped as she heard Negative Weiss's voice as she steps out from the shadows as she reveals herself then attack Ruby, "Isn't that right… Ruby?"
Activating her <Glyphs> she propels herself against Ruby.

~Jack POV~
"Hehe…"
Laughing a bit to myself I felt a pat on Pyrrha's shoulder as she asked me in a confusion, "Hello Jack was it necessary for us to show up like team SSSN like that?"
Remembering a bit earlier I called my Team to see which teammates were the best we have and they both met up joining in my and Sun's antics just for fun.
When we introduced our teams Sun personally froze when he realized I have Pyrrha on my teammate showing off a bit as he frowned at this.
Then was the funny part that his team was pitying him as I so wanted to show off on Sun since he reminds me of my friend's attitude as I spoke, "Nah. It's just to show off I have the best teammates I could ever be fortunate enough to have."
Ren on the other hand being the voice of logic began to reply at that with a blank tone, "You mean both team leaders have a dick measuring contest right?"
"Ack!"
"How did you know!"
Playing around with Ren and half surprised at the same time embarrassed Nora laughed at this and my antics a bit taking this moment to speak out, "Hahaha! That's a funny leader! Ren is always like this bold and quiet. You least expect it."
Once more Ren began to slightly smile coldly at Nora he replied to her making her freeze on the spot, "Right Nora. Also, that coffee stunt yesterday…. No pancakes for a whole month."
Nora froze at that she began to slightly tear up as if her whole life was over, "W-wait Ren… it was by accident-t you wouldn't-t – "
Before Nora could finish Ren handed me his cooking stuff and told me in a neutral tone, "Jack can you place these away for a month. I need to make sure Nora follows what happens for a month with your <Deep Pocket> Semblance."
Glancing at the pleading Nora begging even to Ren was kind of sad, "Wait Ren no need to be rash…!"
But one look at the calm eerily smiles from him told me nope.
I'm not going into this one.
Nodding with the man I won't make a ninja angry at me as Pyrrha looks at our antics as a bit funny for her she spoke, "Bftt…Hahaha…. I can see our Team is certainly unique with our own quirks. I'm kind of glad you guys aren't like the rest I know."
At this Nora and Ren looked confused but I didn't miss a beat of this. I replied what she meant by that in an obvious tone, "You mean the meat heads or masses that can't understand or see you as a person but your fancy title?"
Pyrrha nods her head at this.
Totally nailed it.
Like that we continued to go ahead with our day when I remembered I still have to do my daily quest for the day, "Oh right. Sorry guys but I'm going to start the daily training I should –"
Before I could finish Pyrrha stopped me as she held her hand on my shoulder and smiled while speaking to me softly, "Right in that case you don't mind if we join? We could turn this into a team bonding if you don't mind of course?"
Stopping a bit I couldn't help but smile at this as I agreed to this since I could use this to learn more about my teammates at a personal level than my meta knowledge considering everything was different from what I remember, "Sure, I could use some partners in this. No Aura though."
They nodded as we all head to our Dorm to get our supplies but that was when I got a quest…

My teammates noticed my pause of action with Pyrrha looking at my face worried as she spoke to me with concern, "Jack? Why do you look so – "
Ignoring her for a bit but soon reconnected to reality again and with the sudden quest, I only have one question about this…
Where is Team RWBY…
That was all I thought before explaining to my teammates with the excuse of where exactly Team RWBY was during the whole time while in reality trying to figure out what is going on here.
And why does Weiss have the Nightmare?
