Helping Hands

Prologue

The door slammed against the wall with trembling force as Yang Xiao-Long let out heavy sigh bordering on yelling in an unconcealed gesture of frustration. She slammed the door back behind her, crimson eyes closing tightly shut. "I'm gonna fucking scream."

Blake and Weiss exchanged looks from their respective beds before they carefully eyed the brawler. "What happened now, Yang?" the brunette asked.

"I saw another guy making moves on Ruby!" the blonde angrily lamented. "He was getting all close and nonchalantly patting her shoulder and whatnot! And this morning I saw Velvet of all people being all shy around her as if it wasn't obvious what she's actually after."

Her teammates sighed in unison. It's a well-known fact that Yang Xiao-Long is fiercely protective of her little sister, Ruby; no suitor is good enough for her in the brawler's eyes and the blonde goes great lengths to keep said suitors at bay. Every day there was at least one incident with Yang either threatening a student or whisking the adorkable redhead away for one reason or another.

Perhaps with good reason, to be honest; the young leader was cute, kind, charming in a cutesy way, and sexy (also in a cutesy kind of way). It was a just as well known fact that Ruby Rose was a bit of an unknowing lady-killer who managed to win the hearts of many; including those of her two teammates ever since they had first attended Beacon Academy. She was, unknown to herself, a tease and the object of many affections as well as source material for wet dreams and venting of stress; her cute face, that small round butt and taut hips—

"You do know that Velvet is usually like that, right?" Blake attempted to defend the fellow Faunus.

"No, this was different; she was all shyly flirting with Rubes, you know?" Yang groaned. "She's a senior, why the hell is she going after younger girls?! Is it a fetish, a preference?!"

"Calm down, Yang," Weiss interrupted. "It's not uncommon, you know? Surely you've glanced at the younger huntresses attending the academy from time to time."

The brawler glared at the fencer. "That's different!" Yang shot back. "My little sister is too pure to be in a relationship! Ugh, just the thought of her doing…sex…things…" She gagged and shook her head. "Besides, there's no-one good enough for her here! I bet you all the lien I have that people here only want to get inside each other's pants and I won't allow my sweet little sister fall victim to them!

"Speaking from experience are we?" Blake immediately held up her hands in a placating manner as the brawler snapped her head in the brunette's direction. "Calm down. I meant no offence."

"I'm not in the mood, kitty-cat," Yang spat at her. "I'm seriously at my wits' end. Every day it's the same routine of keeping others away from Rubes. Just yesterday I had to fend off Cinder and her friends – again with the seniors! Each year it's getting more and more difficult to be there for her with different schedules and whatnot. I don't know what I'm going to do."

Something clicked inside the Faunus' mind and she looked over at the fencer. The exchanged looks and nodded slowly as they tried to not show their wicked enthusiasm.

Truth be told, they had it bad for Ruby – so bad that the only reason they had not made a move on her was because they were in the same team as the blonde obstacle. And as much as Yang was their friend and teammate, she could be a bitch sometimes, obnoxiously so.

"You know, Yang," Weiss began. She rose up to her feet and stepped over to the brawler as she squeezed her shoulder in comfort. "We never really interfered because we saw it as a family-thing; your duty to look after your sibling. It's clear however that this is starting to wear you down."

"And like you said, with different schedules you can't always be there, thus leaving Ruby vulnerable. I think it's admirable that you protect her like this, but you can't do it alone. You need help; our help."

Yang eyed the pair, her eyes returning to their original colour. "You guys… Would you really do this for me?"

"Of course! We would be glad to watch Ruby's back," Weiss said. She was practically beaming. "I too think it's wonderful what you're doing for your sister and as your friends and teammates we will gladly help you."

"We will help you keep others away from Ruby," Blake added. "You can count on us."

The brawler's body relaxed and a smile curved her lips. "That…would really help…Thank you. I should have asked you sooner. Of course I can trust you; you haven't done anything towards Ruby since we started here. I know you aren't into her."

It took the monochrome pair all their strength to not snicker at that remark, but they were pulled into a bear hug as their friend sighed in relief.

"Thank you guys. I can rest a bit easier now knowing that my friends are helping me out."

Blake and Weiss glanced over at each other with sinking feeling in their stomachs.

"Welp, I'm off! I need to head for my next class and Ruby's should be over in a few minutes, so this is great timing for you both!" She smiled at them and headed out. "Call me as soon as something happens!"

The door slammed shut. Weiss looked up at Blake, uneasy and frowning. "I kind of feel bad now…"

"You and me both." The brunette sighed. "Maybe we shouldn't do it—"

The door was suddenly kicked open as Yang stepped back inside. "Oh, I almost forgot! I may have lost your library-card you lent out to me, Blake; sorry about that! And Weiss, I forgot to mention that Professor Port was looking for you regarding your school project. Gotta go—!"

"Hey, w-wait! When was this?!" Weiss called out.

"Oh, uh…maybe a week ago? It slipped my mind, honestly. Anyway, thanks a bunch, gotta run!"

…

…

The pair exchanged looks again, veins popping out over their foreheads as they nodded in agreement.

"Let's go find Ruby, shall we?"

A/N: So I have been feeling out of it when it came to writing, which has taken a toll on commissions and requests, but it's time to rectify that! So here you go, another trip down my weird mind. I haven't decided whether this will be Yuri, Futa, or a mix between the two. Let me know what you'd like to see, won't ya?
