Yo Peeps, GateMasterGreen here with a new fic to celebrate volume 2 and a new favorite character of mine: Emerald. If you hadn't guessed, Green is my favorite color, so Emerald became very dear to me. I now have three characters I love equally, the tree I am currently shipping in this fic. So let's begin.

Disclaimer: I shan't lay claim to this glorious show called RWBY.

Emerald hooked her thumbs in the waistline of her pants and took a quick view of her surroundings. The sun was setting soon, so many people were heading home and leaving the streets rather bare. She spotted a man, alone, sitting at a cafe table. Her eyes trained on his pockets, grinning at how full they seemed. Time for some... Repossession.

She strolled over, not looking at her target directly before bumping into the leg of his chair. She fell forward as the man turned, catching the tripping woman and not noticing her hand slip into his pocket and relieve him of his wallet.

"Sorry." She said smoothly. "I'm not from around here, so I got a little caught up with the sights."

The stranger helped her to her feet and chuckled. "It's fine. I don't get to help strangers often."

Just as she turned to leave, a voice called out. "Thief!" Emerald turned to see two teens, one in a large red cloak and the other in black form-hugging clothes and a bow. The younger girl being the one to yell.

Her cover blown, Emerald bolted, not looking back as she raced down the streets.

Blake, having told Ruby what she saw, watched in mild amusement as the energetic teen ran after the green-haired girl. She almost felt bad for Ruby's quarry. No one could outrun the cloaked crusader. Setting her thoughts aside, she rushed to catch up.

The cloaked huntress in training appeared before her prey in a burst of rose petals, the other girl slamming into her. Both collapsed in a heap, just as Blake caught up. The cat faunus snickered slightly, seeing their compromising situation. Emerald's hands were squeezing Ruby's breasts (probably trying to soften her impact) and her thigh was pressed between Ruby's own. Their faces were inches apart and both of them were blushing furiously.

"I have to admit, I didn't think my leader worked this quickly. Nice going, Ruby." Amber eyes glinted with mischief, the two girls on the ground flushing even more.

Ruby whined childishly. "Blaakkkee, stop it."

Blake helped them up and chuckled, turning to Emerald. "You need to return the man's wallet. I'll let you off the hook, if you do. You've managed to amuse me beyond the norm."

Ruby muttered. "Yeah, 'cause you're a pervert."

The faunus' bow twitched and amber eyes locked on silver. "Do you want to repeat that, Ruby? I'm sure Yang would like to hear about this, in detail." Ruby shook her head vehemently. Blake turned to Emerald. "Well?"

The dark-skinned teen shrugged and handed the wallet over. "It's not like I needed it, just wanted some fun. Though what happened wouldn't quite fit my definition of the word."

A few minutes later, the situation was sorted out. The man got his wallet back with an apology and the girls were seated at the same cafe, chatting.

"So, you're here for the tournament too?" Ruby asked, smiling. "Cool."

Emerald nodded. "Yeah. It ought to be interesting with what I've seen of the others who came. I heard that Pyrrha Nikos will be in this one."

"She goes to Beacon with us," replied Blake. "She's a friend of ours."

"She'll be tough competition, what with all her past victories in tournaments." Emerald quipped. "I'd expect her to win. If anyone." She stood and excused herself. "I'll see you around, you two. It's been nice talking to someone who doesn't annoy the dust out of me."

Ruby grabbed her scroll. "Wait. We should exchange some info. We could maybe hang out later!"

Emerald laughed at the girl's enthusiasm. "Is this your way of asking me out?" She teased.

Ruby sputtered. "W-Wh-what? N-n-n-not at a-all. I just hoped we could be friends."

Snatching the girl's scroll, Emerald tapped a few things. "I was just teasing, girl. Don't worry. Though, you wouldn't find me objecting. You're pretty cute." With that, she handed the device back. "See ya, Ruby. Blake."

The cat girl nodded. "It was nice to meet you."

XXXGMGXXX

An hour or so later, the two were back in their dorm, watching as Yang and Weiss bickered about whatever. Ruby broke them apart before sitting near the Weiss' bed, leaning on the frame.

Yang slipped down across from her and grinned. "So, what did you two get up to on the streets."

"Stopped a thief, nothing special." Ruby tried to play it off.

Yang quirked a brow. "Is there more to your little story?" She prodded her sister. "Tell me. I won't laugh."

"You would, if she told you what exactly happened." The two saw Blake reading her book, but it was her whom spoke. "She did make a friend, though."

Lilac eyes shifted to the cookie junkie. "It's nice to know you're making even more friends. I take it the thief is who you befriended, sis." Ruby nodded. "So... What are they like?"

Ruby smiled slightly. "She's actually very nice. She gave the guy his wallet back. She's got green hair and dark skin, which is pretty and-"

"Whoah," interrupted Yang. "You're starting to rant again, sis." She paused before a wicked smirk pulled over her face. "She's "pretty"? Does little Ruby have a crush?" Ruby blushed and covered her face with her hands. "She does!" Throwing a hand over her sister's shoulder, she continued. "Listen well and I'll tell you how to woo her!"

Ruby groaned. "Please, nooo."

"First thing's first! You need her number." Yang stated.

"She gave it Ruby on her scroll." Blake had once again spoke. "Ruby asked for it later, so they could hang out."

The brawler nodded. "Do you know if she'd possibly want to date, Ruby."

"Stated it as clear as day." Replied Blake. "She said she was teasing, but her eyes were sincere."

"So, it's settled!" Yang snatched Ruby's laptop, shoving it into the younger girl's hands. "Call her up and ask her out on a date!" She turned to Blake and Weiss. "Let's give her some privacy." All three got up and left, leaving Ruby alone.

Ruby unlocked her scroll and flicked through her contacts, settling on 'Emerald'. Her finger rested over the call button and she sighed. Should she? Yang and Blake looked sure, so maybe they were right. The only way to figure that out was to call. Hardening her resolve, she pressed the button.

Emerald's image flickered onto the screen, a smile on her face. "Hey, Ruby! What's up?"

"Hi, Emerald. I just had a question."

Emerald nodded. "You wanted to figure when we could hang out, right?"

Ruby shook her head. "No. I was wondering if you'd like to, maybe, um... Go on a date with me?"

A beaming smile was her response. "Sure thing. Just call me up when you have all the particulars sorted. I guess I'll see you then!"

Ruby grinned. "You got it! I'll see you around. Bye Emmy!"

"Emmy?" Emerald snickered. "I guess that works. Later, Rubes." The connection severed and Ruby shot up.

She danced in joy and ran to the door, flinging it open. The rest of her team was outside and she jumped Yang. "She said yes!"

Yang laughed and ruffled her sister's hair. "Look at you! Fifteen and a lady killer! I'm so proud!"

The other two congratulated her and they went back inside, settling down for the evening. That night, Ruby fell asleep with a smile.

End...

That's all for now. I hope to update soon. Tell me what you think. It's not BlackGem yet, Blake joins later. I'll see y'all later. Au revoir. This is GateMasterGreen, Signing off!
