Blake sighed in relief as she felt the warmth of the hot water against her skin. Despite being a cat Faunus, she did find warm water to be quite relaxing. Already she could already feel her muscles loosening from the sensation the shower so generously provided.
Still, she couldn't but think back to her dust experiment in Professor Peach's class. Someone had rigged her dust to blow, all while she was still present at her desk. Impressive, she had to admit. But that didn't help her in finding the culprit.
Team CRDL were obvious choices as they were known to be Beacon's resident bullies, but Blake had a hard time linking them to her lab accident. Team CRDL weren't skilled enough to go unnoticed by her trained senses. That, and she highly doubted they had the knowhow to rig cheap dust to explode.
So, who went after her experiment then? And how did they manage to sabotage it while she was still present?
The 'B' of team RWBY was stumped. She might have good deductions skills, but she was far from being a detective. She would just have to think on this some more later and retrace her steps. In the meantime, she should finish-up in the shower and get changed.
As she grabbed her luffa and began the process of washing away the remnants of her saboteurs' handiwork, she never even noticed the faint glow from earlier enveloping her body.
She did feel a small tingle running down her spine, but more or less chalked it up to the shower being pleasant. When she was finally done with her scrubbing, she placed her luffa back down and reluctantly killed the water. She peeled back the shower curtain and stepped out on the cold floor, wishing she'd remembered to bring her slippers into the bathroom.
Oh well, she grabbed her towel from the wrack and began to dry off before wrapping it around her torso. Within a few minutes she was exited the bathroom now fully dressed and clean, though she did feel a bit... off. Or maybe she'd just been too relaxed under the hot water?
"Well, looks who's all cleaned-up." Yang smiled as she wrapped her arm around her teammate's shoulder. "Feel fresh?"
Blake smiled. "I do actually."
Strange. Had she always been eye-to-eye with Yang?
