The air ship landed. Sean walked off, Olivine's coat around his shoulders. his eyes were distant, lost, and mournful. Behind him, two coffens were being carried.
What was to be a welcome home party, turned into a funeral. Of the four sent to deal with the Grimm, one returned. This was their first fight for the year. What went wrong? How did this team so close, a team of misfits that loved each other, die so horribly.
Only Sean knew the answer of what happened to Team CAOS, and he would not tell.
Sean stepped off of the airship.
His smile rose. Qrow had been adament about him staying on Signal grounds until it was time for initiation at Beacon.
He streched his arms, letting the air sink in.
"I'm finally here!" he yelled, before letting out his insane laugh.
People stepped away from him when he did that.
Amber avoided her laughing classmate.
"Why couldn't you have gone to Atlas?" she asked under her breath.
"Cause I LOVE Vale!" he shouted in responce.
Amber jumped as she noticed Sean had snuck up on her.
"You asshole!" she shouted as she fired a shot from Romulus.
"Whoa!" Sean said, avoiding the bullet. "Don't make me pull Hades on you."
Amber held back her embarassment through her anger. "I hate you. I really hate you."
Sean smiled, tilting his glasses down. "Come on pretty lady. You can't hate me."
She couldn't hide her blush now. So she just pulled Remus on Sean, forcing him to jump back.
"This will be fun," he said, walking away.
Amber just let out a small scream of annoyance. She walked toward to auditorium.
Carmine got out of the ship. beacon stood before him.
"I made it dad," he said to the sky.
He looked and saw a girl standing in a tree. Her bushy tail waving as she watched people walk by. He could feel like she is use to spying on guys for some reason.
"Hey," he said to the Faunus.
She turned. "Yeah?"
"Why are you spying on people?" he asked.
She blushed. "Just, you know, uhh..."
Carmine laughed a little bit. "Anyway, is that the auditorium?" he asked.
She nodded.
"Thanks," he said, walking off.
She laughed a little bit. She decided it was time to join her fellow hunters and huntresses in training. Olivine climed down, and walked toward the auditorium.
Ozpin looked over the students gathered before him. He took a drink from his cup, like usuall. and preapred for his speach.
"I look before you. I don't see hunters. I don't see huntresses. I see wasted ptoential. Some of you come from outside the kingdom," he said, looking toward Olivine. "Some of you have humble beginings," he said, directed at Carmine. "Some of you have problems," he said, his moving toward Sean. "Some of you more than others," his said, his noticably on Sean. "Regardless, none of that will aid you now."
Ozpin stepped away. Sean started clapping and cheering afterward, puzzeling Ozpin.
Glynda stepped up. "You will all sleep in the caffiteria tonight until initiation tomorrow." When she stepped away, Sean started cheering again, leading to people stepping away from him.
Amber layed down. She sighed.
Amber thought back to the orphanage. She needed to send them a letter about how she was doing. Her smile grew.
"You look pretty cute," came a familiar voice.
Amber opened her eyes, and saw Sean.
Her smile turned to gritted teeth. Her eyes turned from polished amber, to orange flame.
She pointed Romulus at Sean, and fired. She always had her weapons on her, even in sleep. Despite this, the bullet missed, and embedded itself into a beam.
"You asshole!" Amber shouted
Sean whistled. "Pretty," he said, looking at the beam.
Just like that, Sean was ignoring Amber.
Amber sighed, and sat back down.
"Are you okay?" a female voice asked.
Amber opened her eyes again, to see a Faunus girl with green eyes looking down at her, her brown squirrel tail waveing in the air.
Amber started blushing.
Olivine looked uneasy. She looked down at her gown, and tought her breasts were causeing the awekward silence. Olivine backed away. "Sorry."
Amber stood up, still lbushing. "No, its fine," she relpied, putting her hand out. "My name is Amber. Amber Assino."
Olivine smiled. "Olivine Shurwood." They shook hands.
Sean walked. "Hello my lady," said to Amber. "And good to meet you Olivine."
Amber got mad, and almost punched Sean.
Olivine laughed. "Your boyfriend is funny."
Amber burst into full embarrassment. Sean started laughing. "Yeah, I am a good boyfriend."
Amber punched Sean in the face. "He's not my boyfriend!" she retorted.
Sean rubbed his cheek. "Come on Amber, it was just a joke."
"Then quit joking," Amber replied. "I don't want people to get the wrong idea."
Sean laughed it off, Amber chewed him out, and Olivine laughed.
Carmine watched as the three others caused noise.
"They sure are loud," Carmine said to the guy reading a book next to him.
The man nodded, and went back to reading.
"You know any of them?" he asked.
"Nope," the man replied.
"Not much of a talker, are you?" Carmine asked.
The guy closed the book. "Not when i'm reading." He held out his hand. "Walker," he said.
Carmine nodded. "Carmine. Carmine Quartz."
Walker shook hands, and noded. "Your Vergil Quatz's son, aren't you?"
Carmine retreated his hand. He sighed. "Yeah."
Walker noded. "Got it. I won't bring him up."
People gathered at the cliff.
Ozpin began to speak. "Today, all of you will be sent into these woods." He gestured to the forest. "You are to journey through here, and find the artifacts at the temple located in this forest. Grab an artifact, rturn to this cliff, and you will be put into your team of four."
Silence.
"That all?" someone asked. His name, Brandon Coleman.
"Not precisly Mr. Coleman. The first person you make eye contact with in this forest is your partner, and will be on your team for your remander of time at Beacon.
Silence again.
Amber knew who to avoid. He would not be her partner!
"Any questions?" Ozpin asked.
Sean raised a hand. "Aew we walking there, or are you throwing us into the air?"
Everyone went quiet, and Ozpin laughed.
"Qrow taught you well Mr. Frye." He sipped his coffee, and the pads began to launch students into the air.
