Krieg's POV

I expected this to happen.

Everyone else had already left the classroom. I ended up staying with Port as punishment, not for concealing a weapon but for using said weapon...makes no sense. At this point I really didn't want an argument. During my stay, the young girl in white came into the classroom and walked towards the 'burly' man.

Weiss: Professor Port!

Port: Ah, Miss Schnee! And to what do I owe this fine pleasure?

Weiss: I... I enjoyed your lecture!

On what? All I got was "When I was a young boy, blah blah blah blah blah."

Port: Of course you did, child; you have the blood of a true Huntress in you.

Weiss: You really think so?

Port: Most surely! Hmm... Something's troubling you.

Weiss: Yes, sir...

Port: Dear girl, confess to me your strife!

Didn't think you were a therapist.

Weiss: Well... I-I think I should have been the leader of team RWBY!

What?

Blinking, I spoke up.

Krieg: No.

Weiss: Great. You're here.

Port: But he is right.

Weiss: What? You're really going to listen to this troublemaker?

Krieg: This "troublemaker" has more experience with leadership than your ego can feed you.

Weiss: Excuse me?!

Port: I've believed in Professor Ozpin for many years, and the man's never once led me astray!

Weiss: So you would just blindly accept his decision even after seeing how exceptional I am?

Port: With all due respect, your exceptional skill on the battlefield is matched only by your poor attitude.

Weiss: How dare you!

Port: My point exactly. I see a girl before me who has spent her entire life getting exactlywhat she wanted.

Weiss: That's not true....! Well... not entirely true.

Krieg: So answer me this.

Standing from the desk, I slowly walked towards her.

Krieg: In times of war, you're never going to get your way. That's just a fact. Being a leader does come with it's perks, but the responsibility that comes with it is a lot. Are you really prepared to step up when things go wrong; When the people around you fall in defeat; When the mission becomes comprised? A leader will step in front of a bullet for their team, but based on what I've seen with you and Ruby, you'd throw her in front to save yourself.

Weiss: I would not!

Krieg: Really?

Weiss:.....

Krieg: She's annoying, yes, but she has heart. Instead of trying to bring her down, you should be trying to push her to greater heights. Be an actual teammate instead of a reliability.

Walking out of the classroom, I heard her scream from behind me.

Weiss: Wait!

Krieg: What?

Weiss: How do you know all this?

Krieg: Experience.

Weiss: So you're a leader.

Krieg: Was. Huge difference.

Walking out of view, I entered the hangar. The first thing I saw was a passed out Blake in the corner of the place, a book in her lap.

Krieg: What the hell?

Morior: MISS BELLADONNA CAME OVER TO READ IN SILENCE.

Krieg: I can tell.

Approaching the woman, I grabbed the book and looked at the title.

Krieg: Ninjas of Love. Never heard of it.

Morior: WHAT IS THE STORY ABOUT PILOT?

Opening the book, I began to read a single line.

Krieg: "No shadows can conceal the lust of one enigma for long." Oh this seems like it's nothing special.

Morior: A ROMANCE NOVEL.

Turning the page, I noticed a rather uncensored image. In horror, I turned  the next page and blinked as many times as I could, trying to get the image out.

Morior: WITH PICTURES I TAKE IT?

Krieg: Oh yeah.

Morior: AND YET YOU'RE CONTINUING TO READ IT.

Krieg: The story is surpringly good. I just wish they hadn't put the pictures in it. I didn't think she was into this kind of-.

Blake: Krieg.......

Krieg: AH!

Oh god!

Turning around, I saw Blake awake. Her yellow eyes widened and her cheeks blushing with embarrassment, the same as mine.

Blake: Is that my book?

Krieg: Yeah.....it uhhh.....it is.

Blake: Can I......have it back please?

Krieg: Yeah, take it.

Handing the book back to her, I slowly backed away from her, like a man trying to escape a potential bear attack.

Blake: I'm sorry for falling asleep in here.

Krieg: No, it's fine. I'm just gonna go do the same....in my room.

Blake: Oh okay. Goodnight.

Krieg: You too Blake.

Morior: GOODNIGHT MISS BELLADONNA.

Blake: Goodnight to you too.

Opening and closing the door, I exhaled in relief as I heard her leaving the hangar.

That was too close.

Morior: THE TWO OF YOU SEEMED FLUSTERED PILOT.

Krieg: Yeah, I had her dirty book in my hands.

Taking off the school clothing, I laid on the bed with only my underwear.

Morior: A SYMPTOM OF MUTUAL FEELINGS TOWARDS ONE ANOTHER.

Krieg: Don't say it Morior.

Morior: SIMILAR SYMPTOMS HAVE BEEN SHOWN WHEN YOU'RE WITHIN 5 METERS OF MISS BELLADONNA.

Krieg: Shut it.

Morior: YOU'RE LOVESTRUCK TO A MINOR DEGREE PILOT.

Krieg: I'm disassembling you tomorrow.

Morior: GOODNIGHT PILOT.

Krieg: Goodnight.
