Chapter 1: New School, Old Friends

A/N: Hey guys and girls of the Internet, I am TheNegaAsian. This is my first fanfiction, so don't be so judgey. Also, RWBY does not belong to me, however it does belong to Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth. Enjoy the story, hope you like it. Now I'll shut up.

"Holy crap, man! This is unbelievable! I cannot believe that we're going to Beacon Academy!" My best friend Dante exclaimed, dancing around as we looked out the window of the airship.

We were heading to Beacon Academy in one of the famous airships. This moment is what we have wanted our entire lives. Since Dante and I became friends a long time ago, the both of us have wanted to be Hunters. The great warriors that use the power of Dust to destroy our great enemy, the creatures of Grimm, and protect all of mankind. I remember reading and hearing stories about great Hunters and Huntresses, just like our parents used to.

As I relished in these memories and moments, I yell brought me to reality. "Out of the way!" The voice demanded. I turned around, seeing who interrupted my daydreaming. A blonde teen in a black hoodie and white armor shoved past me. I grabbed his shoulder, about to teach him a lesson. Then I noticed he was holding his hand over his mouth, a tiny bit of vomit leaking out.

"WHAT THE HELL MAN!? WHY ARE YOU HOLDING THAT IN LIKE THAT?! FIND A TRASH CAN AND LET THAT CRAP OUT!" I screamed at the blonde. He simply shook his head and ran off, searching for a trash can albeit.

Meanwhile, Dante was laughing and chuckling the whole time I berated Vomit Boy. "Damn Gray. Never heard you get that angry before." My friend teased, trying not to smile.

I looked back at Dante, staring at him seriously. "That guy was gonna barf on me. I don't like getting barfed on. I don't want to be expelled from this school from me putting that kid in the hospital." I spat at the black haired teen, shifting my Multiuse Archery Blade Staff, that I named Wolf Bane, on my back.

As a news report went on about a criminal and stuff, I watched the barfing teen run around with his hands over his mouth, trying to find a trash can like I told him to. He ran past two girls, who instantly caught my attention. They were most likely sisters, telling from how close they were to each other. One was dressed in a black and red corset and skirt, a red cloak flowing behind her, black leggings, a few clips of ammo on her belt, and a rectangular object on her back. She had short black hair, although I did notice that she had red as well.

That made no sense, because her sister was a blonde with flowing hair that reached her lower back. Her dress style was also different than her sister. I mean she was wearing a brown vest with poofy sleeves over a yellow shirt, although both seemed too big for her massive rack. Around her neck was an orange scarf, which seemed to have no apparent end. She wore a brown belt with pouches, really short back shorts, a white skirt that hang off her jacket, and brown boots to finish it up. With this clothing, she seemed like she was trying to get the attention of others. However, I looked past all that because everything else about her seemed very familiar.

The two girls screamed, running away from the puking blonde. I chuckled lightly at their cute childish chasing and screaming. Then Dante noticed them too, looking very closely at the girl in the red cloak. "Do you like her or something Dante?" I teasingly asked. "No offense man, but she seems way to young for you." I laughed as I finished teasing him.

He shook his head and glared at me. He turned back to the girl, but spoke to me. "No. I know her. She went to Signal. I met her after you left Vale. I don't know why she's here though. She's two years below me."

"Oh. Well, than if you want to know why, why don't you go talk to her!" I playfully yelled at him. I teasingly shoved him towards the two girls as we walked to them, getting Dante's well-known Stare. I laughed and looked at the two girls again, but one of them was staring wide-eyed in my direction. I glanced behind me to see if there was something there, but no, there was nothing. I looked back towards them, beginning to notice the blonde smiling and running at me. I squinted at her, trying to remember who she was, because she definitely knew me. Then it hit me. "Yang?!"

Then she hit me as I was tackled to the ground in a bear hug. She happily screamed, "Gray! You're here!" She hugged me for a few more seconds then let me up, dusting off my armored grey leather jacket I wore. As I recovered from the tight hug, she hugged me again. "I can't believe it's you. It's been soooo long."

"I know. I barely recognized you. You've changed." I smiled as I reconciled with her. Back before I had to leave the kingdom of Vale for 2 years because of my father getting a new job in Atlas, Yang was one of my best friends besides Dante at Signal. For a matter of fact, a month before I moved, we started dating. I loved her then, and that feeling has been coming back since I recently saw her. But she probably won't forgive me for when I broke up with her. I try not to remember that night, where we fought on my leaving. "It's good to back." I muttered as I hugged my ex-girlfriend.

After a few seconds, she left the hug and grabbed my hand. "Oh wait! Come meet my sister. You never met her when we were dating." She exclaimed, leading me to the girl in the red hood while skipping.

Well, at the same time, Dante waved me to come over to him. "Gray, I want you to meet someone." He told me as I was in earshot range. Beside him was the girl in black and red that is Yang's sister.

When Yang and I were close enough to Dante and the girl, Yang and Dante simultaneously announced, "Gray, this is Ruby." Right as they heard the other's voice, they mercilessly glared at the other.

As Yang glared at my best friend, she spoke in a harsh voice, "You know you didn't have to say anything. I could have introduced Ruby."

"Yeah, well I spent more time with Ruby than you did at Signal, and I'm in the same year as you. I'm her best friend." Dante responded in the same tone.

"I'm her sister." Yang said with her shut-the-fuck-up look that I've seen so many times on her face. "So shut it Snake Boy."

Dante smiled as if he thought of something good to say back. "Well you didn't act like it back at Signal." He insulted.

Yang stared down at the floor, acting discouraged with an angry look. She then flicked her wrists down to release both her Semblance of flames and anger, and her Dual Ranged Shot Gauntlets, Ember Celica. She then faced Dante. "You didn't just say that!"

Dante in turn pulled out his Bladed Firearm Tonfas, which he cleverly named Snake Fang, and responded, "What if I did, huh?"

Yang laughed shortly, confusing Dante. She then surprised Dante by tackling him to the floor, fists flying. The two fought each other in a cartoonic fight cloud, blocking my view of the epic fight. Then, I started to laugh as I heard Dante's weak screams of pain. I then noticed Ruby beside me, enjoying the fight just as much as I did. I cleared my throat. "Hey." I held out my hand to her. "My name's Gray. Gray Quicksilver."

She looked into my silver eyes with hers and introduced herself in a cute voice, shaking my hand. "The name is Ruby Rose."
