Run, that was all she could do at the moment. With three enemies hot on her heels, it would take a work of luck and a bit of a miracle for her to make it out of this alive. Despite being armed with state of the art battle armor, it made no difference whatsoever if her opponents had it as well. She could hear the sounds of gunfire blaring in the background, her comrades meeting the enemy in a heated engagement.

"Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck, not good," She said to no one in particular.

With a shotgun in hand, all she could do was wait for the right opportunity. Everything was riding on what she was going to do next, it was victory, or death. While she jumped up in the air, she spun around mid air and threw a grenade behind her. The first two pursuers were able to run past it safely without repercussions, however, the man furthest back did not fare so well, and was caught in the blast, killing him.

One down, she continued to run for a mere second, before activating her thruster pack and launching herself backwards, towards her pursuers. Being directly behind the one in the back, she grabbed a hold of him, spun him around, and dug her knife right into his skull. Her victims body going limp, she whipped her shotgun towards the last target, pulling the trigger and unloading a round of buckshot into his chest. For added measure, she threw a punch in his direction and wiped him from existence.

"Get shit on," She called out after unleashing death on her prey. With victory achieved, she was able to sit back and relax, basking in the glory of her achievement. "And another victory for the ice queen!"

The 'ice queen' in question, was none other than Weiss Schnee, a well known Youtube star that does a lot of video game videos, as well as work in live action short videos. As Weiss watched the victory signal display across her screen, she couldn't help but feel proud of herself for yet another stellar performance. She was especially happy about the fact that she had this good of a performance while she was live streaming her footage, something she had enjoyed doing very much.

"Alright guys, that'll about do it for tonight, but before I go, I have a few things I want to talk about first with all of you," Weiss said as she exited the game and threw the video of herself into full screen. "So first off, thank you all for coming out to watch the stream, I had a lot of fun playing for you guys. Hopefully a few of you were able to join me in the game, and if you were, then thanks for being such great people to play with, whether I was on your team or not."

Looking at the numbers on her screen, she saw that there were about 5000 people that were currently watching her stream at that exact moment, that wasn't including people who had tuned in and had to leave for whatever reason. This was a great night for her, and knowing what she knew, things were looking up for her.

"Now, I got some really great news," Weiss continued. "As most of you know, I've done a few odd videos with Duck Beak Productions, joining in for one of their sub groups, Danger Close's, game videos, as well as the occasional DB Short. Well, as of this monday, I'll be working with DB Productions full time as a part of the Danger Close Crew! I'm really excited about this, and I honestly can't wait to get underway with this, it's a huge opportunity for me and I'm really looking forward to working there."

As she looked at the chat and people's reactions, she could see all the high support coming in from the people watching the stream. Seeing a reaction like that made her feel just wonderful.

"Of course, that means of course, I'll be moving down to Texas over this weekend, and I've been packing for the past week," Weiss went on. "It's also why I'm cutting this stream kinda short, I'm actually going to be driving down there all day and night, and I'll be unpacking and getting into my new apartment all day tomorrow. There won't be much in terms of content tomorrow because I'll be very tired, so hopefully you guys get to see some good stuff coming from me in the coming days with Danger Close. I may not be creating much content on my own channel, but I'll still make videos for you, I'll still be live streaming, and I would really love it if you guys could check out Duck Beak and Danger Close's content, it's great stuff and you'd all enjoy it very much. And with that, I bid you all a very fond farewell. Thank you all for watching, and I'll see you all later!"

Once she ended the stream, Weiss felt a sigh of relief. Taking a look around at her room, she felt a strange feeling pass through her. She had lived in this room for pretty much all of her life, had anything she wanted because of the family she grew up in. Now she was leaving to start her own life, and it felt very surreal to her.

'Looks like I'll be living out on my own soon,' Weiss thought to herself. Most of her belongings had already been packed up, only her computer and the things that she needed to do one last stream being left behind. Given how much she actually had for the stream, it would take about 10 minutes to pack everything that was left.

As she pulled out the game she was playing for her stream, and putting the finishing touches on saving her stream, and saving the video and audio that she would upload to her Youtube channel to a portable hard drive, Weiss heard a knock on the door. "Come in."

Looking to the door, Weiss saw that her sister Winter had decided to come up and see her. Winter, as well as Weiss' other sister Willow, were both helping her move into her new apartment. It was such a great thing that Weiss' younger sisters were both willing to help with the move, the bond between the three strong.

"Hey there, nice work on your stream," Winter said. "I would've caught it sooner than I had, but I was getting some sleep for the long drive ahead of us. Willow's still asleep now as well, so I'll wake her up while you start to pack the rest of your stuff."

"Alright, thanks," Weiss replied as she did a second check on the content, just to be sure. Noticing that Winter looked as if she had something on her mind. "Ok, I know that look, what's up?"

Winter wasn't surprised when Weiss asked what was going on, her older sister had a near keen instinct on knowing what she was thinking. "Are you sure this is what you want to do?" Winter asked Weiss. It wasn't that she doubted Weiss' decision, there were some outside factors that were playing into the entire situation. "You know what would happen if you go through with this."

Weiss knew what Winter meant by that, their father and what he thought of Weiss' choice in career. Weiss' father had hoped that she would be going into work in the family business, one of the most lucrative and controversial oil companies in the world. Weiss never wanted to get into the family business, and so once she taken a likening to creating video content, Weiss knew exactly what she wanted to do in her life. Needless to say her father didn't understand, nor did he agree with what she was doing, giving her a choice between having the millions that she had grown up with, or having the career she wanted. He didn't believe that it was worth doing, but Weiss wasn't dismayed by the prospect of a harder life ahead of her.

"I know exactly what is going to happen," Weiss said as she started to take her computer and everything else apart to pack up. "I'm gonna prove to him that I can make a living doing this, prove that I don't need him to get by in life. Might as well start now."

Instead of a response, Winter hugged Weiss, comforting her in a warm embrace and a caring moment. "You'll do great Weiss, I just know it." Winter let go of the hug and held her older sister's arms. "I'm gonna go wake up Willow. She's probably gonna take a shower while you're packing, and so should you once she's out. You got a big day ahead of you tomorrow." On that note, Winter walked out of the room to go gather the youngest of the Schnee daughters. Once she was out of the room, Weiss went back to work on getting her things together.


Weiss was tired by the time she reached her apartment. The sun had come up and it was bright and sunny by the time Weiss had reached her destination. She had driven a moving truck from New York all the way to Austin Texas, a long journey that had taken all day and night to go through. Winter and Willow were driving Weiss' car down, and two servants that went along in a third car. Weiss' father didn't go along with them, claiming that he was to busy to waste his time on foolish endeavors. Even though Weiss' mother couldn't go with them as well, Weiss was fortunate that she had sent the two helping hands, at least to handle the heavy stuff.

As Weiss and her siblings parked, Weiss had to imagine if her roommate had arrived yet. When she had rented the apartment, she had to find someone to room with, incapable of signing the apartment on her own. While she had wanted to ask one of her siblings, Weiss knew that it wasn't a doable option. She was fortunate that there was someone who was looking for an apartment herself, and after striking up a quick conversation with the girl, Weiss was able to get the apartment she had wanted.

Fortunately, Weiss was sure that her roommate wasn't there yet, meaning she was in her full right to claim whatever room she wanted. Weiss opened up the back while Winter, Willow and the two helping hander her mother sent with them arrived at the back of the truck. "Alright, I'm going to meet with the building director real quick. You guys grab some of the smaller things for right now, so that we can get the first few things in quickly"

It didn't take Weiss long to get the keys to her new apartment, learning that her roommate was indeed not there yet. Making her way back to the truck, Weiss grabbed a single back so that she could keep a hand free and open the door to the apartment. Upon opening the door, Weiss looked at her new home for what she believed would be the next few years of her life.

The apartment was nice and open, the front door opening up immediately to the living room. The kitchen was immediately on the right, decently sized and furbished with state of the art appliances. Off in the back left corner of the living room was one of the two bedrooms, leaning against the back wall. The other bedroom was over on the right wall near the back, next to the kitchen. Knowing exactly which room she wanted, Weiss went to the room along the back wall. In between the rooms was the area for the bathroom, as well as a walk in closet, and the left wall led to the patio.

As they got Weiss' belongings into the room, Winter struck up conversation with Weiss and Willow. "Hey, so what do you know about your roommate?"

"Not much, just her name," Weiss responded. "Her name is Yang Xiao Long, my age apparently."

"Doesn't seem like much to go off of, don't you think?" Winter teased.

"You could say something like that," Weiss replied.

"When do you think she's gonna get here?" Willow asked. Walking back with her sisters down to the truck, they noticed that a slightly large blonde woman made her way through the front door.

When Weiss thought she was large, she didn't mean that in a derogatory way. The fact was that the girl was much taller than her, and her bust was considerably large. Aside from that, she was quite fit and in great shape. Weiss felt her cheeks heat up a little bit at seeing the woman standing there, wearing a tank top and short shorts, showing off as much skin as she felt she could get away with.

"Hello~" The blond sang out. "I'm guessing one of you lovely ladies is my roommate?"

Gathering her wits, Weiss was quick to get herself back in order. "That would be me," Weiss replied while offering a hand to the blonde. "Yang right?" When the blonde accepted the hand and nodded at Weiss question, Weiss continued. "Sorry for not entirely remembering, it has been a while, and we really didn't chat that much while we were here together."

Weiss was surprised when the blonde wrapped an arm around her. "Eh, don't worry about it, we've got plenty of time to learn about each other." After hearing that, Weiss couldn't help but feel happy about that little possibility.

"Yang, are you gonna start grabbing your stuff or not?"

Hearing the call of another person, Yang, Weiss and the rest turn their attention to the young girl that had recently arrived in the apartment, followed behind by two older looking men.

"Sorry, was just saying yellow to the roommate," Yang said. "Oh, speaking of which…" Yang pulled Weiss over to the newest arrivals. "Guys, this is my roommate Weiss." Yang gave Weiss the chance to wave, albeit a bit awkwardly, before introducing Weiss to the new arrivals. "Weiss, this is my lil sister Ruby, my dad, and my Uncle Qrow."

"Pleasure to meet you Weiss," Yang's father said, extending his hand. "Taiyang Xiao Long, but please, just call me Tai, most everyone else does."

"It's nice to meet you too," Weiss answered, before gesturing for her sisters to come over. "These are my sisters Winter and Willow."

"Hello," said Winter.

"Hey," Willow said.

"We still got some stuff to bring in," Weiss interjected. "So we don't want to be rude, but we should get back to it."

"Gotcha, if you guys need a hand, just let us know," Yang said back. "These old geezers here need to stay on top of their game."

"Oh really?" Tai cut in. "I think I feel a strong need to grab a beer and watch you do all the work now. What do you think, Qrow?"

"Yeah, I think the ball game's about to start, and you know how much I wanted to catch that," Yang's uncle replied.

"Well, if you old farts are gonna watch the game, then I'll have to join you," Yang teased.

"What about me?" Ruby inquired.

Laughing, Yang placed her hand on the younger girls shoulders. "Relax Rubes, I'm still planning on getting this done soon. Come on guys, let's get going, we got work to do." Yang led her family out to get her stuff in.

During the entire interaction, Weiss and her sisters couldn't help but watch with sheer awe as they saw the family dynamic between Yang and her family. It was somewhat similar to Weiss' relationship to her sisters, but taken to a higher degree. Weiss had a feeling that the two of them would get along, somehow.


AN: NEW STORY! Gotta explain a few things before I get going. This is an AU where Weiss pretty much works at this story's equivalent of Rooster Teeth, specifically in Achievement Hunter. I am going to be writing a story where it features more of the actual videos such as the Let's Plays, the Vs., Go, etc. I've had this idea for a while, something that I think could be really cool.

I'm officially dubbing this AU the Youtube AU! If you guys want to write stuff within this AU, I would love it if we could get some of the Let's Plays that I won't be writing written out. As I said there is going to be a second story written specifically for Let's Plays, so when that comes out, you'll get an idea of who portrays who in Achievement Hunter.

This story though, is more or less going to be about what happens with Weiss' life behind the scenes in her life with her new job. There is going to be Freezerburn, if you couldn't tell already, and I hope that makes at least this story enjoyable.

Anyway, if you have any questions, or if you have ways that this story could be improved, feel free to leave a review or send me a message with anything you wanna say. I like the feedback and it helps me improve as a writer.

Thanks for stopping by this story, and I hope you all have a good day.
