The going was painfully slow for the heiress, her splattered form barely making any progress to reform in the darkness. Weiss struggled against the bindings of the mat, motivated by the thought of repeating this torture for eternity. The fruits of her labor almost paid off, managing to peel slightly out of the mat. Sadly for Weiss, the strain of everything that had happened finally caught up to her as she soon passed out.
"N-no- s-so c-lose" She muttered, reaching up with a flattened hand.
Weiss was dragged into a deep sleep, not waking up even when the lights came on. Her tiny body was somehow able to avoid a few footfalls as she slept, before one just barely scrapped over her- ripping the tiny Weiss from the mat completely. Weiss's eyes shot open in pain as she felt herself get scraped off, her eyes watering slightly. The pain was soon replaced with fear as she attempted to move her still 2D body, but she just ended up barely twitching. Looking at her arms, although dirty, and 2D, they looked normal, a glimmer of hope shone in as she realized that she at least looked human, albeit a sticker of one. The freedom of coming loose from the mat was quickly overcast by the all too familiar shadow of a foot. The tiny speck could only whimper as Penny stepped down upon her, the hope of escaping from the mat flickered as she was once more compressed by the ball of another girls foot.
The grime and dirt gathered from the previous tramples must of done something as she didn't feel like she was sticking to the mat or the foot quite so easily. Her body just meekly hung from Penny's foot as she lifted off, falling away partway through the step only to get stepped on from a slightly different location.
The robotic girl continued to chew out the tiny sticker that was loosing its stick under her foot like a hydraulic press. Every step, Weiss would move down the foot, every step Weiss would be flipped into a different position. After four steps the poor sticker made it to the arch of Penny's foot, lacking in pressure she almost instantly came off in the next step- drifting helplessly in the wind currents before just barely getting her legs caught under the heel. The pressure caused Weiss to gasp as her stomach was stepped on, her eyes watering up as she joined Penny for a few more steps before getting accidentally scraped off by a minor weight ajustment.
Weiss screwed her eyes shut as soon as she saw Pyrhaa and Nora overhead, knowing what was about to happen. She only opened her eyes after she felt Pyrhaa step on her left side. She peered up at the goddess that had stepped on her for a moment as the tiny Weiss attempted to say something, only to get wisked away once more. Her tiny form peeled off mid step only to get caught under the toes of Nora as she energetically wandered next to Pyrhaa, lost in conversation.
Both Pyrhaa and Nora were completely unaware of what they were doing as they trampled the paper this Weiss, her fluttering form constantly sticking and peeling off the two girls feet. Nora's energetic swinging legs seemed to create the perfect wind to keep Weiss from escaping.
Chewed by Nora's toes, crushed under the Amazons heavy heel, smashed under the ball of Nora's foot. It was never ending, occasionally she'd stick to the same place for a few steps, imbuing horror in the tiny Weiss's heart- only for her to be thrown out into a different location.
Weiss didn't know when it happened, but she soon realized she was being trampled by other students as a damp sock replaced the previously bare feet. Her body stuck to the fibers for a few steps, only coming loose to get slammed under a boot for a few steps. Every time she was freed from one student she would instantly get picked up by another. She didn't get much chance to process things as she was pounded into oblivion. She almost felt glad as she just barely recognized Ruby's foot. Weiss's weak fingers quickly curled around the nylon fibers without her really thinking about it as she crashed into the underside of the giant foot. She just wanted to escape the constant trampling of strangers, risking the chance of getting crushed into the nylon. Regret slid into the tinies head just as Ruby put her foot down. Weiss's fingers were instantly forced to hold on as the weight crushed them into the threads of the nylons.
Not noticing Weiss squish under her foot, Ruby clumsily made her way through the crowd. An onlooker would of seen it as a funny scene as the leader of RWBY danced around, occasionally getting spun, but for Weiss it was hell as she was demolished under the heavy foot falls, the twisting foot, the clumsy unpredictable steps and the sweat and smell from Ruby's old nylons. It was obvious that Ruby had been putting off doing her laundry again.
"Aaaand free!" Ruby announced, hopping out of the crowd. "Why on earth is is this crowded?" She asked out-loud, unable to hear the sticker under foot screaming as she stood still.
"Beacon has a very good gym, I believe it's usually quite popular around this time" Penny announced, bobbing up and down on the balls of her feet."
The conversation continued for a few moments before Ruby was on the move again. Weiss's tattered form dangling from the ball of the hyper girls foot, unable to let go as she was dragged over the mats. Weiss screamed internally as the mat floor was replaced with the floor of a treadmill. Her mouth hung agape for a moment before her body clicked into desperation
"RU-" She attempted to scream her leaders name.
Ruby hopped onto the treadmill, silencing her teammates cries as she began pushing buttons, unsure exactly what she was doing as the treadmill started to point upwards. Ruby ignored it, pushing the other button for speed, wiggling her toes happily as she felt the machine begin to move. She began to walk, focusing on the balls of her feet as she chatted with Penny on the other machine.

Ruby panted as she began doing her last set of rows, pulling on the rope one last time. Her feet rolled upwards as she pulled upwards revealing the smear on the ball of her foot, it wasn't even remotely human looking.
"Haaa- I swear this was easier before" She panted, sweat dribbling down her face.
"I am most surprised, from previous analysis I assumed you wouldn't try this hard in a gym environment" Penny stated, barely noticing Ruby rubbing her feet over the mat while resting on one of the not very popular rowing machines.
"Eh? Really? I kinda have to be in shape to do this job, and this way I get to eat cookies-" Ruby replied, almost licking her lips as she rolled off the machine. Her body instantly spread out as she collapsed into a sweaty heap, lying on her stomach.
Weiss finally got her first break today, her mind drifted as she baked on Rubies dripping wet foot. The entire day had made her see how good she had it on the mats, at least she had breaks in between. This was constant oblivion, pounded under the foot of her leader who obviously favored cardio over strength training. Half hour walk, an hour running, an eternity squashed under foot as her tormentor curled a dung-bell, dug into and grinder under for 20 pushups, a standing break and finally rows on a rowing machine. She couldn't take much more.
"Alright, one cool down walk on the treadmill then I think I'll call it a day-" Ruby stated, not moving, "After my body decides to move-" She groaned, not noticing the gum on her foot suddenly panicing at the thought of more exercise followed by being in a boot. Penny however, noticed the strange blob on Ruby's foot. Originally she thought that it was just a hole in the nylons but on closer inspection it looked like Ruby had picked something up.
"One moment- friend Ruby appears to of stepped in something-" She stated, reaching down.
"Hu? What is it?" Ruby asked, glancing over her shoulder as Penny pinched Weiss- tugging the poor thing from Ruby's stocking. Penny looked it over for a moment,
"A faded sticker of some kind-" She stated, tuggling slightly and noticing Weiss's elasticity, "Or... putty?" She tilted her head, causing Ruby to look it over.
"Eh- it's textures like a sticker, but it's image is kinda faded. Whatever-" Both girls shrugged it off, dropping Weiss in an overfull the bin on their way out.
Weiss was balanced on top of the pile, close to falling out. As much as she didn't want to be in a bin, she knew this was the best chance to reform. Her body slowly began to regain it's 2D sticker shape when...
