Arbitary Author's Note: To start off, I'd like to say that I don't particularily like the term OC.

That said, here's a story with some OC:s in it. I'll try to follow the style and themes of the RWBY universe the best I can. This one's more of a teaser. Tell me what you think of it in a review!

This is my first story, so it will probably be bad and full of tropes. Don't hold back anything if you happen to be reviewing. Even the insults.

Beacon Academy.

There it is, then, huh. It looks much smaller up-close. Funny, really. I used to look at the clocktower every day from my window. Guess your perspective changes as you age. And when you learn how to kill some Grimm.

".. The robbery was led by a notorious criminal Roman Torchwick.."

Rena was snapped back to reality when the newsreader's rather enthusiastic voice describing the local Dust shop robbery in Vale reached her ears.

".. If you have any information about his whereabouts, please contact the Vale police department. Back to you, Lisa.", the commentator ended as a slurred female voice took over.

"Thhank you, Cyril. In othhher news, thiss Saturday Faunush civil rightsh protest turned dark.." the new voice started her turn, clearly tangling in her words. I guess it troubled you so much your drinking problem resurfaced, Rena thought, and pressed his face against the airship's window again.

I wonder how the teams are chosen, she started the same worried train of thought she had gone through for the last week several times. Realising this, she shook her thoughts clear. It's gonna be fine. As long as they don't suck.

The ship started landing to the ship-pad by the end of the long courtyard leading to the castle-like academy. Here we go. Alright. Don't stress. The large airship finished it's land with a soft bump, and the new students started pushing their way through the exit. They were clearly excited, and the same could be said about Rena, who was already snaking past the other arrivals. She stepped to the stone-tiled courtyard surrounded by lush gardens, pathways and statues. The main academy building loomed in the distance. She took in the outside air, and observed the courtyard in awe, with no worry or concern in her mind anymore.

I guess it really is as big as I thought. This is gonna be awesome.
