They go to the mall

And so, Blake and Weiss found themselves waiting outside the entrance of the Vale Central Mall at the appointed time.

Weiss had her arms crossed and a scowl on her face while Blake looked annoyed. They had argued long and hard about this but eventually they had both decided to listen to the Blackmailer's demands. They would look for a way to try and turn the tables if they could, but for now they simply had to buy time. Weiss had hired a hacker known for discretion. Perhaps if the Blackmailer kept sending them messages, they could eventually find a way to trace them back and find the person responsible.

"I can't believe we're doing this." Blake complained for the fourth time since the two had arrived. She sighed in dejection. Besides, it had been Weiss's idea to streak naked through the city. In a way this was her fault. But now wasn't the time for blame. The two of them had to stick together.

She felt uneasy, like they were being watched or something bad was going to happen. Usually in her books if someone was being blackmailed they would be lured to an empty location, but instead their blackmailer had asked them to come to a crowded mall. There was definitely something fishy about that.

Blake's scroll beeped as it received a message exactly at the appointed time. Weiss leaned over to read with her.

'GOOD, BOTH OF YOU SHOWED YOU CAN LISTEN TO INSTRUCTIONS. IF YOU WANT ME TO KEEP YOUR STREAKING VIDEO TO MYSELF THEN I'M GOING TO NEED YOU TWO TO DO SOMETHING FOR ME. WALK AROUND TO ALLEY NEXT TO THE DUMPSTERS NEAR THE MALL ENTRANCE. BEHIND ONE WILL BE A RED PLASTIC BAG WITH MORE INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOU.'

Blake sighed. More instructions for them.

"Weiss, can the hacker you hired trace this message?" Blake asked.

"Maybe, but it isn't an instant thing. It takes time. The more messages we get, the faster it will be. For now I'll forward it to them but we're going to need to play around for now." Weiss said.

The two girls moved to the designated location and fished out the plastic bag. Inside were a curious collection of items. There were two flu masks, one black and one white, along with white fox ears that looked like what Weiss had worn during their streak, as well as a folded piece of paper.

'YOUR TASK IS SIMPLE. BELLADONNA WILL UNCOVER HER EARS WHILE SCHNEE WILL WEAR THE FOX EARS. BOTH OF YOU WILL THEN STRIP COMPLETELY NAKED AND STREAK THOUGH THE MALL BEFORE RETURNING HERE. YOU MAY USE THE MASKS IF YOU WISH. I WILL BE WATCHING. IF YOU DO NOT COMPLY IN 10 MINUTES THEN YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN.'

"...That bastard." Blake snarled. "Who does he think he is? We get blackmailed for streaking and he wants us to streak more?"

The flu mask would only cover half their face, mostly their nose and mouth, but it would at least hide some of their identity. It was at least better than nothing.

"Weiss, we absolutely can't..." Blake began, only to cut off in shock that Weiss was already stripping down, her shirt already off and her white bra exposed to the open air.

"We don't have a choice Blake. We need time to find this perv and we won't get it by refusing his commands." Weiss said as she lowered her skirt, leaving her in her underwear. "Now you should hurry and get ready."

Blake looked around the make sure the alley was still clear before giving a tired sigh as she began to remove her clothes. Before long, both girls stood completely nude in the alley, their clothes hidden behind one of the dumpsters in the plastic bag. Both of them wore their matching color flu mask. Blake's cat ears were exposed and twitching while Weiss wore the fake fox ears. She had carefully arranged her hair so that it wasn't readily apparent the ears were fake. The two of them just looked like two naked Faunus ready to streak.

"I can't believe we're doing this. Again." Blake said angrily as she crept toward the entrance of the alleyway. Looking out carefully, she could still see the normal crowd of people around the entrance of the mall. The two of them were going to be seen again. This time in broad daylight and with many more witnesses.

"We just have to stick together and keep running. We absolutely CANNOT get caught by the authorities." Weiss said, sporting an apparently blush.

"Just don't focus on the crowd. Just keep running." Blake said mostly to herself.

The two of them took off, jogging at a reasonable pace towards the mall.
