15 chapter 15

Morning has arrived at Beacon as Ruby, Blake, and Yang are looking down on the sleeping heiress. They woke up earlier to get a head start on some of the activities that they wanted to get done before class begins.

Ruby places the whistle in her mouth as the other two clamp their hands over their ears to try and block the noise.

One high pitched blow later, Weiss bolted up wide awake with a scream.

Weiss tries to calm her fast beating heart from the jump scare and glares at Ruby.

"There better be a valid reason to blow that infernal trinket in my ear Ruby!"

an annoyed Weiss said. She looks at the clock to find out that it's 7:00 in the morning. According to the schedule, classes start at nine o'clock.

"We have a lot to fit in two hours so we may as well get started. We got to decorate our room, wake Luffy up, get breakfast..."

Ruby started listing off her personal checklist before Weiss cut her off.

"Okay, why exactly do we have to wake him up? He can get himself out of bed."

Weiss said with a bit of irritation.

"If only it were that easy. Whenever he sleeps, it's nearly impossible to wake him up with loud noises." was Yang's reply. The heiress lets out a sigh of exasperation as she accepts the answer.

"Fine, but Ruby... we don't have time to decorate and have breakfast before class. I still need to change into my school uniform."

Weiss reasoned with her team leader/partner. Ruby ponders on how to at least do something about their room and still be on time for class.

"Okay, while you get ready, we'll get Luffy up and at least get the bunk beds set up."

Ruby said with cheerfulness at the thought of having bunk beds. This was already planned out when initiation ended and she talked to Luffy about having his help.

Weiss quirks a brow at her, wondering how they would manage that. Nonetheless, she approves of the plan since Ruby seems confident enough to fit that in two hours.

While Weiss went to the bathroom to change and Ruby pushing the luggage to the side, Blake and Yang moved over to the door next to theirs. Using the access code that Yang got from Luffy last night, they unlocked the door to find the raven haired boy sprawled out on the bed snoring. The room itself looked bare with only a bed, desk, bookshelf, and a huge backpack that is as tall as the ceiling.

Blake was caught off guard by the luggage in the room and much less so by the fact that Luffy is sleeping topless. She thought he was one of those guys that want to show off from the night before initiation. She gives Yang a dull look when she spots her partner giving a shit eating grin for some reason.

"So Blake, what kind of 'pack' do you like more?"

Yang teased. Blake knew if she chose one or the other, Yang would still have something to say. Either pick the boy with a noticeable six pack or a backpack that looks like you can hide a few people inside for 'fun activities'. So she just didn't reply at all.

Why was the blonde constantly teasing her so much when it came to Luffy?

Yang walked up to the foot of the bed and grabbed Luffy's ankles and flung him over herself before slamming him against the floor face first. Blake was about to protest on the wake up call before remembering that the rubber man can't get hurt from that.

Still though, wouldn't it be better to shake him awake.

"Eh... morning already?"

Luffy said as he is wide awake. He doesn't even realize that he got unceremoniously planted on the floor by his cousin.

"Yep, good morning sleepy head. Go on and get changed, we need your help with making bunk beds for our room before breakfast."

Yang informed Luffy who yawned and waved her off before realizing he was about to miss a meal. After that, he took the set of clothes and dashed into the bathroom.

"Did you really have to do that to wake him up?"

Blake asked Yang incredulously.

"Hey, you can't just do a soft shake of his body and expect a heavy sleeper like him to wake up. You have to be rough with him." Yang responded. Blake contemplated on Yang's logic before turning her attention to the large object in the room.

"Well... while he is getting ready, what exactly is in that?"

Blake inquired, gesturing to the giant backpack. Team JNPR came into his room shortly after hearing a loud thump, only to gawk at the colossal object upon entering.

"Mostly tools and equipment for making more pellets and medicine. But right now, we need tools, nails, and wood."

Yang listed off to them. She opens up the bag and fishes out a toolbox with a box of nails and planks.

Jaune stares at the items she's holding and then shifted his gaze to the bag next to her. All he could do is come to one conclusion.

'Just how much can this guy lift?' he thought to himself with a hint of fear. When he first met Luffy, he was carrying the same backpack like it didn't weigh anything.

"Wow! His room feels a lot more bigger than ours. All of our rooms are kinda cramped with four beds."

Nora said with jealousy.

"Nora, you're not barging into Luffy's room because it's bigger."

Ren told his childhood friend who pouted at him.

Luffy walks out of the bathroom in his uniform with some minor alterations. All he did was roll up the sleeves up to the middle of his bicep and kept his sandals, yellow sash, and straw hat.

"Yosh, time to make bunk beds and eat some food."

Luffy said with enthusiasm. Yang hands him the tools and materials needed for the project as he walks out the door.

"Is woodworking one of his skills from his semblance?"

Pyrrha guessed.

"Yeah... among other things."

Yang replied as she followed Luffy with the others in tow.

Ruby and Weiss were waiting outside their dorm and spotted Luffy.

"Morning Luffy, I moved our stuff out of the way to give you more room to work with."

Ruby informed him. The straw hat boy grinned at the two before activating his semblance. A sky blue glow appears with a symbol of a mallet.
