Alright I know I already have a story on the go, and i haven't updated at all, but it will get done. I might revise it and fix a few things because I didn't like some of the content myself. Anyway I'm starting this story because I just got into RWBY recently and I am HOOKED. So I figured, why not? Here's the result. I've decided to replace Jaune with our protagonist, not because I don't like him, but because it's just so much easier to write this without him, and frankly I couldn't be bothered to try and make it work. So I hope you like it, here it is.
I do not own Naruto or Rwby. Both belong to their respective owners.

"What was it now… Bokken? No… Bison maybe? BACON. That was it. My god this school sure sounds delicious for a fancy-ass battle specialized state of the art-damn it all I'm late! The air craft thingy leaves in three minutes!" The boy ran as fast as his admittedly strong legs could take him, getting weird looks from the onlookers waiting for the arrival of their own aircraft.
He could see his flight terminal from where he was in the large airport. He (regretfully) ran past a commercial ramen stand and made a mad dash towards the closing metal doors supposedly leading to his future.
Thinking he made it, he let his guard down and didn't notice an empty candy wrapper at his feet, effectively tripping him. Falling to the ground, dread filled his body when he realized he wouldn't make it. Just when he was about to give up hope, he heard a voice coming from behind the no longer closing doors.
"Please wait!" he heard. Looking up, he saw a smooth, feminine but still quite obviously strong hand being held out to him. Following the path made by the woman's arm with his eyes, he locked gazes with the most beautiful girl he's ever met.
She had eyes greener than the forests back home. Her hair, covering a bronze circlet headpiece, seemed to be so red that the reddest cherry would seem blue in comparison. Observing the rest of her, he noticed she was quite muscular, but it did nothing to take away from her charms. Even from his position on the ground, he could tell she was very tall; only being a few inches shorter than himself. She was dressed in a strong yet form fitting gold and red armor.
Noticing that he was staring and making her quite uncomfortable, he quickly got to his feet and apologized profusely. "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to stare like that. I don't know what got into me…" he scratched the back of his head bashfully.
"Haha, it's quite alright," she said, "I get it quite a lot, unfortunately…" At this, Naruto was quite embarrassed. Before he could say anything else, a flight attendant came and interrupted their conversation.
She looked at them exasperatedly, "sir, ma'am, we're leaving. Please board the aircraft." At this, both teens had the decency to blush.

He looked through the aircraft window with boredom. He was about to sigh until he heard the girl from earlier call out to him. "Hello again!" she said amicably.
Turning around, he waved at her and smiled. "Yo! Sorry about earlier… err… can I help you?" He didn't mean to be rude, nor did he wan to push her away, but he did wonder why she wanted to talk to him.
Leaning against the rather large window frame beside him, she set her gaze on the sights below her. "Well since we're probably going to the same school, being on the same aircraft headed to it and all, and you and I have already met, I figured I would introduce myself to you. Who knows? We might even be in the same classes. Anyway, My name's Pyrrha. Pyrrha Nikos."
Standing up straight to greet her properly, he grinned. "Nice to meet 'ya Pyrrha! The name's En." He held out his hand, and his smile widened when she shook it"
'En huh? That's obviously a pseudonym, but for what? I wonder what he's hiding,' thought Pyrrha as she stared at the enigma standing in front of her. Still, she could tell her new comrade would be a valued ally in the near future. 'Oh well. It'll be what it'll be. We only just met. I don't expect him to trust me right away.'
Being able to finally get a good look at her new acquaintance, she quickly noticed his imposing stature. He was easily over six feet in height, since he was, in fact taller than her. He had incredibly bright blond, nearly yellow hair that seemed to dangle messily around his face, accentuating the odd whisker-like markings on his cheeks. His cobalt blue eyes that should have been clashing horribly with his tanned skin seemed to fit perfectly on him.
The redhead noted that if it weren't for his uppity personality, his feral appearance and his tall and fairly broad body would have surely made for an intimidating individual.
The aircraft came to a sudden halt. A loud voice echoed throughout the avian structure, "Attention all students. We have arrived at Beacon academy. Please make way to the closest exit in an orderly fashion immediately. Thank you for your cooperation."
The duo followed the crowd out the door. Once outside, they couldn't help but admire the spectacular structure in front of them. Suddenly En slammed his fist into his palm in realization. "OOOOH okay I guess Beacon makes way more sense. Bacon does sound a little silly I guess."
Pyrrha looked at her companion incredulously. "You thought the most prestigious combat academy in all of Vale was called bacon? How- I'm not even going to ask…"
He smiled at her and chuckled, "that's… probably for the best… hehe."

Once they arrived at the building, the two were escorted to the opening assembly, along with the other students. It was a rather large room, though it obviously needed to be, seeing as it was still packed with first year students like themselves. All conversation and shenanigans in the room ceased as a man with white hair and a monocle stepped on the elevated center platform, observing each student before introducing himself as the principle, prof. Ozpin and giving a speech that seemed to act as means to inspire them in some weird way.
Pyrrha seemed to find it all very interesting, since she was actually paying attention. However, En apparently found absolutely anything else in the room interesting. While the principle kept on talking, he was trying his hardest not to bore himself, having the attention span of an epileptic goldfish.
He was snapped out of it as he noticed everyone voiding the room. He gave Pyrrha a look and she seemed to understand what it meant as she gave him a sigh. "Professor Ozpin told us to get ready for initiation. Just.. follow me, okay?" Her new friend really needed to work on his listening skills.

Once they arrived at the locker room, Pyrrha left to get ready, but En decided to go look around and meet new people. They had a few minutes, and making friends was always a good idea. Lost in his thoughts, he accidentally bumped into someone.
"Ouch…" cried the very young voice of the person he knocked over. It was an unusually young girl, two or so years younger than himself, dressed in a red cloak that accented the red highlights in her black hair. She had greyish-silver eyes that fit her pale complexion quite well. Helping her to her feet, he smiled apologetically.
"Sorry about that. I should've been looking where I was going…" he started, hoping for a name. She seemed to catch on to what he was trying to imply. "Nonono it's fine, really. No one got hurt right? Hehe…" she started awkwardly, "o-oh and my name's Ruby."
"Oooooh Ruby looks like someone made a new friend," said a new approaching voice, "see? Not that hard right? So fella, what's your name? I'm Yang, by the way."
Yang was a quite attractive young lady. Again, about his age, with thick yellow hair, probably even more so than his own. She had lilac eyes, and wore a coordinated yellow and brown crop top-like outfit.
"Nice to meet you, Ruby, Yang. You can call me En. Are you two friends?" he asked, not sure of what to make of the duo.
Yang laughed, "Nah, we're sisters, I guess its probably not the most obvious thing in the world."
Observing them both carefully, they were nothing alike. Their personalities and physical appearance were near opposite of each other. Deciding not to put too much thought into it, he just let it be. "Huh. Who would've thought." Noticing that he should probably get ready himself, he bid the pair farewell and good luck in the upcoming trials that awaited them.
Once he got back to his locker to get all of his things in place, he noticed Pyrrha talking to a white haired girl. The redhead was trying to be nice, but obviously felt a little uncomfortable. When she saw him, she immediately gave him a pleading look.
Walking over to the pair, he greeted them enthusiastically. "Yo! How's it going?" At this, the shorter white haired girl seemed to fume in anger. "Have you not a CLUE who you're talking to? Try to have a little respect. I am Weiss Schnee. Heiress to the Schnee dust company. And this is THE Pyrrha Nikos,"
Pyrrha felt a wave of despair and dread wash over her. She finally found a friend who treated her and saw her for who she was, not because she was someone super famous. She knew the second Weiss introduced her that it would all change, and she would lose her only friend because she would seem unreachable.
Failing to stop her, Pyrrha almost felt like crying when the Schnee continued, "She finished first in her class at Sanctum, and won the Mistral Regional Tournament four years in a row. She is in every way, shape and form a celebrity, and above a commoner like you!"
About to abandon all hope, the Greek warrior was surprised when En answered, "wow Pyrrha, you're pretty cool. Learn somethin' new every day I guess. Nice to know, ya? I still don't get what makes her so much better than me though…"
Weiss was getting annoyed with the blond. "Are you serious? She's the mascot for Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Flakes for Christ's sake! The nerve of-," she was interrupted as En turned to face a much calmer, but still quite surprised Pyrrha.
"Oh wow, those are actually pretty good. I've had a bowl or two before, and they definitely taste a lot better than most cereal. Good fer' you Pyrrha, I'm impressed," he said quite excitedly.
The shocked girl went from surprise, to confusion, to happiness then to plain old amusement. She laughed good naturedly at her odd friend. "Haha, I guess they are, aren't they? Shame they aren't as healthy as they taste." Smiling, she couldn't help but feel grateful that her new companion didn't see her any differently, even after being told of her accomplishments. Though she didn't know him for long, she could definitely tell that he was a great person to be around, and secretly hoped their friendship would last.
Weiss, being fed up with the whiskered wonder, just stomped off. "Gaah! I give up!" she could be heard screaming down the hall of the locker room, and was getting looks from the students she passed by.
Chuckling, Pyrrha tapped the boy on the shoulder. "Alright En, we should go."
Smiling at her, he nodded and followed her out the door.

"Alright. Does every one understand?" Glynda Goodwitch, presumably the vice-principal of Beacon, stood next to Ozpin after giving the rules and objective of their student initiation. She looked at each student in the eye to make sure they understood.
Standing on a launching platform with a determined look on his face, En nodded to Pyrrha, wishing her good luck, and gave a thumbs up to Yang and Ruby.
"Any questions? Good. The trials commence immediately." And with the final words from the principal, the launch pads activated, sending students flying one by one.
His hair shadowing his eyes, En let a wide grin cross his face. "Let's do this… 'tebayo."
And Done! Alright, I promise to try and update both of my stories, also I'll try to finish up the first chapter of a Bleach fic I'm working on. Hope to see you all soon!
