Quick note here, this story was originally on my other account. However I finally remembered this accounts info and am going to be uploading it to this account instead. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Chapter 1
The First Day
A new year started at Beacon Academy. The birds flew around a ship as it landed and let the entire group of new students exit. Most were in complete awe by the sight of Beacon. The massive castle-like structure that stood in front of them was easily a sight to be seen by all.
One student however continued past the rest and moved towards the door. A small, barely even five foot tall, girl had such a swift stride to her that made she appeared as if she was floating. She wore a purple shirt with matching pants with some black combat boots. Her face was hidden by a black hood and cloak but you could see her shoulder length silver hair.
The girl continued into the main hall where she saw Professor Ozpin and Glynda Goodwitch standing and waiting for the students. She made her way to the center of the room and waited for the rest of the students to follow.
"Early as always aren't you Ranger?" Ozpin asked the girl with a smile. She raised her head a bit and smiled back to him signaling a 'yes' to him.
Ranger was one of the many new students to become a Hunter or Huntress in training. She was invited to the esteemed academy by Ozpin when he stopped by Signal Academy when she was sixteen and saw her in action. Her seventeenth birthday happened no more than a week ago, and what better present that getting into the esteemed Beacon Academy. Eventually the rest of the students made it to the hall as well and Ozpin began his speech by clearing his throat.
"You have traveled here today in search of knowledge. To hone your craft and acquire new skills. And when you have finished...you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look amongst you and all I see is wasted energy in need of purpose. Direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step." Ozpin closed his speech and walked away as Glynda continued after him.
"You will gather in the ballroom tonight. Tomorrow your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed." Glynda followed after Ozpin once she finished leaving the students to have their free time.
Most mingled and got to know each other. During this free time Ranger moved to the side wall and sat down. She rested against a pillar and waited for the night to come.
"Hmm so that was the head honcho of this place. Interesting." A girl stated to the boy next to her.
"Yeah. I would watch out for that woman though. She seems strict." The boy replied to her referring about Glynda.
"Well duh! Eppi she's basically Ozpin's right hand! She has to be." The girl retorted.
"Well thanks Raven I didn't register that." Eppi replied to her statistically. Raven scoffed and they walked on.
Raven and Eppi. Quiet a duo. Although you couldn't tell from appearances, they were brother and sister. They shared little similarities despite both having black hair.
Raven had burgundy eyes whereas Eppi had olive eyes. Raven wore a black trench coat with maroon short shorts and a red low cut shirt and knee high black boots. She had about the exact same height and physique as Blake but the bust size of Yang. She tried to have as free flowing of an outfit without giving up on the sex appeal. Eppi however was far more conservative. He wore a nice light green shirt with a perfectly positioned white vest over it. His khaki pants and white tennis shoes, although not appealing, complemented the rest of his outfit well. Also, Eppi was a faunus. He had a nice fox tail to add to everything. He was at a rather average height of about five foot ten inches. He seemed to have a scrawny body but defined and muscular arms. Between the two of them Eppi was the more clumsy and goof of the family. Where as Raven was a natural rebel. But acted like the perfect student infront of her teachers.
"So where do you want to go now?" Eppi asked his sister.
"Good question. I guess for now we can find the ballroom. That way we know where we have to go later on." Eppi nodded in agreement.
"Alrighty then. I'll race ya!" Raven said as she dashed off.
"Hey wait a second!" Said Eppi as he chased after her. And the two ran off to find the huge room.
Ranger heard the commotion of the two running past her down the hall. She sighed at all the noise and closed her eyes to rest a bit. She almost fell asleep when she felt as though the ground moved around her. A large man stood next to her. She remained silent but the man spoke.
"Do you mind if I sit here?" He asked in a very low and monotone voice. Ranger waved her hand to signal she didn't care.
"Thank you." The man said. He then sat silently and rested next to her. Although she doesn't usually go out of her way to meet new people this man interested her.
"If you don't mind me asking, why did you sit next to me?" Ranger questioned the man.
"I noticed you sitting alone. Not looking to talk to anyone. So I sat here thinking I could do that as well." He replied bluntly. Ranger gave a light laugh and continued their silence for some time.
"Haha! I win again!" Raven shouted her victory. Eppi came up behind her panting heavily.
"That's only..." He breathed heavily. "Only because you cheat!" He managed to finish saying.
"Huh? What are you talking about? I only tripped you twice!" Raven stuck her tongue out at her brother. He waved her off and they looked at the large open room with several makeshift beds laying around.
"Well we found it. Now what?" Raven asked impatiently. She has always been one of those people who constantly needed to be doing something. Doing nothing was not in her schedule.
"We just got here. Can't you wait for just one minute?" A still tired Eppi pleaded to his sister. Raven rolled her eyes and let out a loud sigh and flopped down on one of the beds. Not fifteen seconds go by and she shot back up.
"You can stay here if you want. But I'm going to give myself a tour." Raven slowly trotted off from Eppi.
"W-wait for me! Can we at least walk this time though?" Raven nodded to her brother and they continued their adventure through Beacon Academy.
The crowd of people in the main hall left with only a few stragglers still conversing with each other. The two silent people along the wall remained in each others company. The large man stood up.
"Thank you for allowing me to join you. I enjoyed your company. I shall head to the ballroom now though. Goodbye." He said in his low voice.
"Wait." Ranger asked the man. He stood still and waited. "What's your name?" She asked him.
"Kilo. You may call me that." He replied to her and continued down the hall. Ranger was rather intrigued by this man known as Kilo. She stood up and followed after him. Once she caught up he looked over to her.
"Why do you follow me?" Kilo's serious personality knew no end.
"Follow? I'm simply going to the ballroom. I just happen to be with you." Raven retorted.
"Very well." Possibly Ranger's favorite thing about Kilo was that he rarely spoke and was always honest, or so she could tell from his blunt attitude.
"What is your name little one?" Kilo asked the small girl.
"Interesting to hear you strike up a conversation. I'm Ranger. It's my pleasure to meet you Kilo." Ranger jumped in front of Kilo stopping him and holding her petite hand out. Kilo gave a faint smile.
"The pleasure is all mine." He said as his hand lightly engulfed hers to shake it. Ranger looked up to the man and smiled back. Kilo saw her white eyes and thought to himself. He decided to leave the thought behind him and the odd duo slowly walked down the hall continuing toward the ballroom.
A simple beginning. Let me know how you guys feel so far.
