- Chapter One -

- Welcome to Beacon -

The mid-day winds up above the city of Vale rustled Charlie's hair, causing its already tousled shape to become even more unruly as he stood at the rear balcony railing of the airship taking him and dozens of other students to Beacon Academy to start the New Year. He watched as the landscape of the kingdom passed by below him, buildings, parks and courtyards filling the city for miles around. At the edge of the city borders, he could see the shimmering red sea of the trees in Forever Fall to the North, and to the South the green trees of the Emerald Forest.

A few people below saw the airships passing overhead, most of them ignoring them, those that didn't sparing enough time to stop and wave up at the airships. From this high up, Charlie couldn't tell who they were, although he was nearly certain that they would be children, waving to the future protectors of the world.

Although children would have a certain level of innocence to them, everyone knew of the Huntsmen and Huntresses who protected the various people of Remnant from the creatures of Grimm. They would pretend to be heroes during their breaks at school, battling imaginary foes, protecting the people and saving the day.

On his way to the airport, Charlie had happened across a young child and his mother, the pair of them heading to take him to school. The boy had stopped in awe, excitedly pointing out Charlie to his mother, bouncing up and down on the spot. Charlie had spent a few moments to speak with the small child, who was determined to go to Signal Academy once he was old enough, and eventually apply to Beacon to become a Huntsman, being the hero he had always wanted to be.

Charlie had smiled politely, and supported the young boy's dreams, assuring him that if he stuck to it, he could become one of the greatest Huntsmen ever to live. After that, he had excused himself from the pair, continuing on his path towards the airport, able to hear the excited ramblings of the child behind him as he continued on his way to school.

Charlie couldn't help but smile as he remembered the adorable moment. Unfortunately, his moment of peace watching the landscape pass by as the airship flew through the air was quickly ruined however as his sister jumped onto his back, jamming his chest against the railing before him.

'Ow! Dammit Robyn!' Charlie shouted, shoving his sister off of his shoulders and rubbing his ribs where the iron bar had impacted.

'Oh, don't be such a wimp Charlie,' his sister replied with a smirk, giving him a gentle shove on the shoulder, having to stand on her toes to do so, her short form only reaching the centre of his chest. 'It's probably not a good idea to start crying over nothing on your first day at school.'

'Shut up,' Charlie snarled at her, pushing her away with a palm to her face. Robyn attempted to fight him, but was unable to match his strength as he walked back inside the airship. He rolled his eyes as he heard her strutting inside behind him.

His sister was also attending Beacon with him. While he had decided to leave the hotel room the two of them had booked for the night just for a place to stay before heading for Beacon, his sister had been determined to spend another hour in the room, getting ready for the day to 'make a good first impression' on the other students they would be meeting.

She had turned up a few seconds before the airship took off, smiling the whole way, and even sticking out her tongue at her brother, and punching him on the arm as he commented on her tardiness.

'At least you took Father's advice in dressing at least a little professionally,' Charlie taunted, glancing towards his sister's attire, which was a mixture between a more formal set of clothing, like his own, and an informal set of clothing.

Like himself, she wore a buttoned collar shirt with a long tie reaching to the waist. Whilst his shirt was a dark red and his tie a light black, hers was a baby blue and her tie a pale white. A short white business vest sat atop her collared shirt, and a blue half-overcoat lay above that. In comparison, Charlie wore a full double-breasted coat, a dark black on the outside, and a deep red on the inside. She wore white pants, half covered by knee knee-high boots of a pearly white colour, whilst he wore a pair of deep black pants, with ankle high combat boots.

Slung across her back was a large, mechanical war bow, accompanied by a thick quiver filled to the brim with arrows. The bow was a bright white in colour, with a few streaks of blue across its surface. The material of the quiver was a slightly darker blue than that of her jacket, which caused it to blend quite nicely with her clothing.

Charlie's own weapons, a pair of short black daggers were resting in their sheaths, located across his belt at the small of his back. A light red glow was emanating through sections of the weapons, indicating a pair of red dust crystals were currently inserted in the handles of the blades.

To finish off their opposing looks, whilst Charlie's hair was short, tousled and an ash-black in colour, Robyn's was long, straight and a bright blue colour. Their eyes were also opposing each other, his eyes being a dark, smouldering red and hers a bright blue.

To most people, the two would appear to be nothing more than friends, complete opposites of each other in appearance. Certainly not twin brother and sister. However, the closer of a look taken, you could notice subtle similarities between the two.

'Haha, very funny,' Robyn replied, poking her tongue out at him, raising her fist again threateningly, although it only resulted in a small chuckle from her brother. The pair dodged past another student who was stumbling around, hand clasped over his mouth, obviously looking for somewhere to throw up.

'We should only be a few more minutes away from Beacon now,' Charlie said, putting his hands in his pockets as he walked. 'Please don't make us look like idiots when we all get off the airships.'

'Pfft, why are you saying that to me? It's you who's going to make us look bad brother,' Robyn said jokingly, giving him another punch in the arm, which Charlie narrowed his eyes at.

Ever since he could remember, his sister had always liked to punch him. Granted, she always hit him very lightly, and at this point it was almost a ritualistic social aspect of their lives. Of course, if he had wanted he could easily avoid her attacks, he just never saw the point in it.

'Ew, Yang! You've got puke on your shoe!'

'Gross gross gross gross gross gross gross!'

'Get away from me! Get away from me!'

Robyn heard the small commotion behind her, and with no time to react, watched as her brother deftly stepped out of the way, before a small girl in red and black stumbled into her from behind, knocking the pair of them to the ground.

The girl looked much younger than the rest of the new students Charlie had seen on the airship. Her face had a youthful look to it, and her silver eyes were full of innocence as they widened in panic as she realised she had just knocked somebody over.

'Ooof! Sorry!' the small girl said, quickly jumping off of Robyn and helping her to her feet.

The young girl was wearing a black corset, complete with red lace up strings across her abdomen, and a frilly red under layer beneath the black material of her corsets combat skirt and protruding from her sleeves. A belt sat across her hips, a pouch and silver rose on the right and singular bullet shells on the left. Black stockings covered her legs, and a pair of ankle high, laced up combat boots. And to complete her look, a red hooded cloak hung from her shoulders, pinned on by a pair of silver crosses at each shoulder. A red device was hidden beneath her cloak, strapped to the back of her dress with some form of mechanical sheath.

'Don't worry, it's alright!' Robyn said, patting the girl on the shoulder as she got to her feet. 'No harm no foul, right?'

'Besides, I give you permission to do that again,' Charlie joked, patting his sister on the shoulder, who quickly threw off his hand and raised a fist threateningly towards him. Although he was already so much taller than her, which made it hard to judge heights, the red-haired girl seemed to be taller than his sister. Just more ammunition to tease her with.

'Sounds like you two have an interesting relationship with each other then,' another girl smiled, whom Charlie guessed to be Yang, still shaking her boot to get the last flecks of puke off.

Yang wore a short, brown leather jacket, exposing both her cleavage and midriff. In fact, the only thing hiding her cleavage was what appeared to be a bright yellow tube top beneath the jacket. An orange scarf sat around her neck, both ends hiding behind her waist-length, untamed blonde hair. A set of lilac eyes gazing at the twins. Bright yellow bracelets sat atop her wrists, above a pair of black fingerless gloves on each hand.

A pair of black minishorts lay beneath a leather miniskirt, exposed at the front, but wrapping completely around her backside. A white cloth was draped around the inside of the skirt, shorter on the left side, extending to be longer on the right. A pair of tall leather boots covered the lower half of her legs, orange socks protruding from each boot, each extended to a different length, the left reaching above her knee, and the other crumpled to be below the knee. A dark lilac sash was tied around the top of her left boot, just below the knee.

'Yeah, just the usual love-hate sibling relationship,' Charlie answered.

'Oh, my bad,' Yang said, a sheepish look on her face now. 'I didn't think you two were related. You kinda don't look anything alike.'

'And you two do?' Charlie asked, raising an eyebrow. 'You don't look like each other, but you're still sisters.'

'How did you know that?' the younger girl asked.

'Good intuition,' Charlie replied. 'Also because of the way you were both talking to each other.'

'Right,' Yang said. 'Well, it's nice to meet you both. I'm Yang, and this is my little sister Ruby!'

Ruby gave the two a small wave, accompanied with a small, but nervous smile.

'It's nice to meet you too,' Robyn replied. 'I'm Robyn, and this is my brother Charles, but everyone just calls him Charlie.'

Yang's eyes flitted between the two of them. 'So, is one of you adopted, or do you have a different parent?'

'Neither,' Robyn answered with a smirk. 'We're twins.'

At that response, both Ruby and Yang leant backwards slightly, eyebrows raised as they looked the pair up and down, disbelief evident in their eyes.

'We get that response quite a lot,' Robyn said.

'I guess we shouldn't really react like that,' Yang answered. 'You already said yourself that we don't look all that much alike.'

'So, which schools did you come from?' Ruby interrupted. 'I haven't seen you before, so you aren't from Signal. Sanctum maybe?'

At this, both Charlie and Robyn's smiles lowered slightly, looked between each other before turning back to the sisters. 'We aren't actually from any of the combat schools around Remnant. We were home schooled ever since we took an interest in Huntsmen and Huntresses.'

'Home schooled? You guys must come from a pretty rich family then,' Yang replied, with a sudden new interest in the pair and a grin on her face, giving Charlie another look up and down, causing him to chuckle internally.

'You could say that,' Charlie replied. 'I'm sure you've heard of Arduin Technologies?'

At that, both sister's eyebrows raised. The twins took that response as a yes.

Arduin Technologies had been founded very early in the history of Remnant, initially creating weaponry for armies before expanding out to create new technologies to aid people in their everyday lives. The Cross-Continental Transit System was co-created by Arduin Technologies and a few other corporations in Atlas, and one of their greatest creations during their time. Many forms of transportations were created by the company, and between these and other various creations, Arduin Technologies had become the most well-known companies across all of Remnant. Nearly a century ago, they had also entered the Dust business, mining, creating, combining and experimenting on the substance. Although the company was reasonably new to the Dust business, they were one of the top-rated companies throughout Remnant, rivalled by only military based companies, as well as the Schnee Dust Company.

'No way,' Ruby whispered in awe.

'Yeah, but please don't make a big deal about it,' Robyn begged. 'It's really not that easy to make friends when you're in our positions. People either don't want to because they don't feel like they are good enough to be around us, or they just want to try and manipulate our friendships for their own personal gains.'

'You got it!' Yang said with a salute and a slight wink, causing Ruby to cover her face with her palm.

A few moments afterwards, the airship slowed down, and came in for a landing to Beacon's docks along with the various other airships which had been flying in from other sections of Vale. The four made their way out of the exit to the airship, making sure to give a slight berth around the poor blonde who was heaving his breakfast into a nearby bin.

Whilst all of the students making their ways off of the airship were all standing in awe of the sheer size of Beacon, Robyn and Charlie were the least dumbfounded out of everyone, having seen their fair share of large houses, academies and various other buildings. However, even with all of their previous experiences, Beacon was still a beautiful sight to behold.

A long path surrounded by trees and wide open grass stretched from the docks towards the tall buildings of the academy. Various pathways led off from the main stretch the closer to Beacon they walked, each of them leading in various directions, each leading to a different section of the campus grounds. Probably not the fastest route, but maybe the most scenic.

'This is amazing!' Ruby exclaimed, jumping on the balls of her feet as she walked alongside her sister and the Arduin twins. 'I've only ever seen Beacon from afar! It looks even better up close!'

Charlie leant towards Yang, tapping her shoulder to get her attention. 'Is it just me, or does your sister seem a little bit younger than the rest of us?'

Yang sighed. 'Yeah, she got into a little situation in downtown Vale a few days ago, and somehow managed to get accepted into Beacon because of it.'

'That seems a little suspicious,' Charlie pointed out.

'Yeah, it kinda is. But I'm happy for her,' Yang replied, smiling as she watched her sister gawp at the various weapons being carried by other students. 'She's wanted this for such a long time, it's great to see that her dream is coming true.'

Robyn smiled at Yang's reply, and was about to say something else to her before Charlie's voice rang out across the walkway. 'Ruby, watch out!'

There was a huge cacophony of noise as Ruby spun around, right into a large baggage cart, loaded to the top with various white cases, sending the boxes flying. The two bellhops, let out a quick sigh before stopping the trolley and moving to pick the cases up.

'You couldn't have said that a little sooner?' Robyn hissed at Charlie as they ran towards Ruby to help her up.

Charlie ignored his sister's remark, lifting the small girl to her feet before bending down to help pick up the cases. As he did so, he noticed the symbol emblazoned across the lid of the case.

'You've got to be kidding me,' he whispered under his breath, just before a shrill voice cut through the air.

'What are you doing?!'

Charlie sighed, handing the case to one of the bellhops before standing up and turning to face the source of the voice.

As he had guessed, it was Weiss Schnee, the Heiress of the Schnee Dust Company. Unlike many of the other times Charlie and his sister had seen Weiss, she wasn't in one of the fancy dresses of the likes she would wear to the formal occasions where they would always see her, but in a more combat oriented attire.

A white dress hung from her chest, ending halfway down her thighs in a frilly, patterned skirt. Black lace poked out from the top of her dress in the centre of her chest. A white ribbon was tied around her waist, holding her rapier at her left hip, and a small white pouch at the back. A white bolero jacket with the Schnee family symbol on the back sat atop her dress, sleeves ending in a wide brim, and a bright red interior standing out from the rest of her outfit. White heeled boots gave her extra height, enough to match, if not be slightly taller than the already incredibly short Ruby and Robyn.

Her hair had grown in length since they had last met. Her white hair was tied into a ponytail on the right side of her head, the rest of the locks draping down to her waist. A small black tiara sat in her hair, the only other piece of jewellery she wore was a small black penchant around her neck. Ice blue eyes pierced into Ruby's face with anger.

It had been a long time since he had last seen the heiress, but he roughly estimated that if she were to remove her boots, she would still be shorter than his smaller sister, or the poor Ruby who was poking the two ends of her index fingers together nervously.

'Uh, I'm sorry! Please don't me too mad!' Ruby quickly babbled. 'I didn't see the cart behind me and I tripped into it. I'm sorry!'

'Sorry?' the Schnee Heiress asked with a sneer. 'Sorry won't take back any damage you've just done!'

She walked towards the luggage trolley, lifting one of the cases and opening it to inspect the contents. Seeming satisfied, she closed it, placing it down on the pile of other cases and turned back to the small group, noticing Charlie standing beside the cart as she did.

As soon as her eyes stopped on him, there was a moment's hesitation, before they narrowed even more than they already had. 'You.'

Both the Arduin and Schnee companies were rivals in business. Unfortunately, this also extended into personal matters, and so their families had never managed to get on. Charlie and his sister had met Weiss Schnee a few times throughout their lives, mostly at social gatherings they had been taken to with their parents. The two families mostly ignored each other, only acknowledging the other when circumstances forced them.

Unfortunately, the few times they had met the heiress, any words that had passed between them had been condescending, or offensive. Charlie had never partaken in the poor behaviour, however his sister was more than glad to verbally abuse the heiress.

Charlie let out a sigh. 'Yes, me.'

'Why am I not surprised to find you where some form of catastrophe has occurred?' she snarled at him.

'Hey!' Yang interjected, getting between the two. 'He didn't even have anything to do with this! Don't pull him into it, he was trying to help out!'

'Oh really?' Weiss replied, turning to face Yang. 'I don't remember asking you for your opinion.'

'Funnily enough, she doesn't need to wait for you to ask when it's her sister you're insulting,' Robyn retorted, causing Weiss' eyes to fix to her.

'Of course you would be here too,' Weiss hissed at her. 'Where one of the Arduin twins goes, the other is always close behind. You're both like a pair of lost puppies, always right beside the other.'

'Please can we all just stop arguing with each other and keep moving on?' Ruby begged, eager to get away from the conflict between them all.

'Wouldn't you just love that?' Weiss snapped. 'Make a mess of my belongings and just move on.'

'Hey, I said I was sorry, princess!' Ruby yelled back.

'Actually, it's heiress,' a new voice said, causing the group to turn and look at the newcomer.

A girl with black hair and a well tied black bow atop her head had approached the group, one of the Schnee cases in hand. She held the case out for one of the bellhops to take, who did so very graciously, placing the final missing case on the top of the pile, before the pair began their journey towards the Academy once more.

The girl wore a white blouse, slightly covered by a black vest, buttoned up at the midriff, showing a little bit of stomach between the vest and a pair of white shorts. From them down was a pair of black tights which faded to a deep purple as they reach her black, ankle-high boots. Black ribbons wrapped around her wrists, and a black sleeve ran from just above her wrist to just below her shoulder on her left arm, a silver band sitting at the top. A sheathed sword sat across her back, another ribbon trailing from the hilt. Golden eyes danced across all of their faces, taking in as much information as they could.

'Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world,' the girl continued.

'Finally! Some recognition!' Weiss said smugly.

'We already know you,' Charlie replied, getting nothing but a small noise as a response as the raven-haired girl continued.

'Personally, I prefer the ethics of Arduin Technologies,' she said knowingly, looking towards Charlie and Robyn. 'They have a much better labour force and certainly have business partners with better reputations than those of the Schnee Dust Company.'

At this, Weiss' look of smugness changed to one of anger. 'How dare you!'

Ruby giggled, trying to be silent, but attracting Weiss' attention once again. The heiress looked as if she were about to say something, but instead turned her head and walked off, leaving them all standing in the middle of the pathway, people walking around them.

'Well, that could have gone better,' Yang said, looking between the members of the circle. The raven-haired girl barely acknowledged her comment before turning and walking off, pulling out a book from under her arm which the rest of them hadn't noticed until now, tilting her head down to read as she did so to continue her reading.

'Not really,' Robyn said, shaking her head. 'She's a bit of a grouch.'

'Ditto,' Charlie agreed. 'That was the best scenario we could have gotten.'

'That was the best possible scenario?' Ruby asked, to which Charlie simply nodded and continued to walk along the path, the rest of the group following him. At least until Ruby went to check her scroll, realising that it wasn't there.

'Uh oh,' Ruby started panicking, frantically patting down her pockets. 'I think I left my scroll on the airship! I'll be right back!'

And with a shower of rose petals, the young girl dashed off, heading back down the pathway towards the docks, the stream of rose petals dodging and weaving through the other students still making their way towards the school.

'Should we wait for her?' Robyn asked Yang.

'Nah, she'll know where we went,' Yang replied, continuing to walk forwards.

It hadn't taken them much longer to make their way towards the large amphitheatre in the centre of the campus, however the time they spent waiting for Ruby near the entrance was starting to stack up. Just when they were about to head back out to look for her, Charlie caught a glimpse of the girl, her red cape sticking out like a sore thumb amongst the rest of the crowd.

'Ruby! Over here, we saved you a spot!' Yang shouted and waved across the noise in the hall, having seen her little sister as well.

Ruby waved back, making her way towards the rest of the group with a very familiar looking individual.

'Is that...?' Robyn started to ask.

'Yep,' Charlie responded before she could finish her sentence. The pair of them took a step back from the group to allow the blonde-haired boy into the group.

A black shirt with a hood on the back lay beneath a set of basic, white combat armour, strapped on with various leather straps. Brown fingerless gloves covered pairs of oranges sleeves reaching up to just above his elbow. Two belts hung from his waist, one holding up his pair of well-worn jeans, the other holding a sword inside a white sheath on his left hip and a pair of black converse covered the bottoms of his jeans. A mop of straggly blonde hair sat atop his head, and a pair of deep blue eyes looked out from underneath a few strands that were straying from the others.

'Aren't you the guy that threw up?' Yang asked.

The guy sighed. 'Yeah, that's me.'

'Yeah, but it's okay Yang,' Ruby interjected, cutting off her sister's reply. 'It turns out he has motion sickness and couldn't help himself before.'

The fire in Yang's eyes died slightly. 'Alright then. So, what's your name?'

The group spent another few minutes introducing each other to Jaune. Once they had finished, the sound of a microphone being turned on got the attention of everybody in the room. Everybody turned to face the source of the sound.

On the stage before all of them stood the academy's headmaster, Professor Ozpin. Charlie and his sister had heard various things about Professor Ozpin from their parents after their decision to apply to Beacon Academy. There wasn't much their parents could tell, other than the high regard they had for Ozpin.

'I'll try to keep this brief for you all,' he began, stepping closer to the microphone. 'Firstly, I would like to congratulate you all for making it this far already. Being accepted into this academy is one of the highest achievements possible for people of your age.'

'However, when I look around all of you here today, all I see inside you are dreams, hopes, and wasted energy. You have built up ideas of what it is you will be doing at this academy throughout your time here, however you must realise that this establishment has the purpose to make you the line of defence for all of the innocent people of this world against the many evils you can find throughout Remnant.'

'Tonight, you will all be gathering within the ballroom. You will stay there for tonight, and be assigned your own dormitories tomorrow evening. In the morning, you will be called to the cliffside, where your initiation will take place. Keep an ear out for the announcement, lest you be late.'

'Your personal belongings are being loaded off of the airship as we speak. They will be delivered to the ballroom for you. Please try to be sensible tonight, and have a good day students,' Ozpin concluded, moving away from the microphone, taking a sip from his cup of coffee as he did so.

As soon as he was done talking, the people in the hall burst out into conversation once more.

'Well, that was really cheery,' Yang commented.

'It was still better than the shouting session Weiss gave me,' Ruby joked.

'You!' screamed the voice of Weiss Schnee from directly behind Ruby.

The sudden shout was enough to scare Ruby into her sister's arms, screaming, 'Oh no, it's happening again!'

The next few hours went by in a blur, and before the group knew it, the sun had set behind the horizon, and the shattered moon was glowing brightly in the sky. The ballroom was now packed full of all the new students who were camping out for the night. Sleeping bags and mattresses had been provided for everyone, as well as pillows, even if people had brought their own.

Jaune and the Arduin twins had decided to stay with the two sisters, rolling out their sleeping bags on the closest mattresses to the pair. Robyn had already climbed inside, ready to fall asleep at a moment's notice. Charlie on the other hand was across the room, making small talk to some of the other students. Robyn had small laugh as she noticed Charlie accidentally start talking to a red headed girl, who had far too much energy for her own good, and was subtly trying to escape the conversation, but to no avail.

At that moment, Yang appeared from nowhere, landing on her mattress, talking to her younger sister, who was concentrating on writing a letter.

'It's like a big slumber party! Isn't this great Ruby?!' Yang asked her sister, arms folded behind her head.

'Yeah,' Ruby replied absentmindedly. 'I don't think dad would approve of all the boys though.'

'Maybe not, but I sure do,' Yang answered, letting out a small purring noise as she surveyed all of the various boys in the room. Even in her half-asleep state, Robyn noticed the blonde girl's eyes linger on her brother's form for slightly longer than the other students, causing her to sigh and shake her head slightly, but with a slight hint of jealousy. It had only been a few hours and already he was attracting the eyes of many of the girls in the room.

'What are you doing?' Yang asked her younger sister.

'Writing a letter to the rest of the gang at Signal,' Ruby replied. 'Just letting them know how the first day went.'

'Awww, that's so cute!' Yang said, before a pillow went flying towards her head, knocking her backwards on her bed.

'Shut up!' Ruby said grumpily. 'I didn't get to take any of my friends with me to school like you did! It's weird not knowing anybody here.'

Robyn had to agree with Ruby. Although she wasn't younger than any of the other students by two years, she had only come to Beacon with her brother. The both of them had been home-schooled their entire lives, and Charlie was her only real friend.

'I understand what you're saying Ruby,' she said, sitting up slightly on her bed. 'Charlie and I don't know anybody else here other than you two really. Although you may have left your previous friends behind, at least you'll make some new friends here.'

'And a negative friend too,' Ruby grumbled, turning onto her back. 'I didn't really make a good first impression on Weiss.'

'There's no such thing as negative friends, just enemies!' Yang said, trying to cheer up her sister, only to get hit with another pillow from Ruby's collection.

'Listen, you haven't even been here that long yet Ruby. There are bound to be friends all around you, you just haven't met them yet.'

'Besides, you've already made three new friends,' Robyn input. 'My brother and I, as well as that Jaune boy.'

At this, Jaune who was walking towards his mattress, which was placed beside Charlie's, found his way into the conversation. 'Did I hear my name?'

'And there's that girl in the corner who sorta came to your rescue,' Yang said, pointing towards the raven-haired girl, who was sitting by herself, reading a book under the light of a candle.

The older sister stood up from her bed and grabbed Ruby's arm, 'Come on! Time to make another friend!'

Robyn let out a small laugh as she watched the younger girl struggle against her sister's strong grip. They moved too far away for her to hear any conversation, so she decided to close her eyes and attempt to fall asleep.

'So, are you two really twins?' Jaune asked from a few beds behind her.

She opened her eyes again, rolling on her side to face him. 'Yes, Jaune, we are.'

'But, you're both just so… different!'

'Yeah, we've been told that many times,' Robyn said. 'It is something that happens, it just isn't very common. Fraternal Twins, I think it's called.'

'So, what makes Fraternal Twins and not Identical Twins?' Jaune asked curiously, receiving a look of humour from Robyn.

'Are you really sure you want to be having this sort of conversation right now Jaune?' she asked him, making him blush ever so slightly. He opened his mouth to answer, but before he could say anything, the sound of arguing reached their ears. From the sounds of it, it was Weiss Schnee again, and possibly Yang?

'Do you uh, think we should go and break them up?' Jaune asked.

'No, Charlie will be there any moment now,' Robyn said, snuggling up to her pillow. 'He's good at appearing whenever there's some sort of argument that needs to be stopped.'

Within a few moments of her saying so, she could hear the sounds of the conflict dissipate quickly, and the calm voice of her brother as he stopped the fight.

A few moments later, she heard the rest of the gang return to their beds, and the five of them quickly fell asleep, although not easily due to the strangely loud snoring coming from the energetic girl across the hall.

Sooo, I kinda decided after a really, really, really, reallllyyyy, long time of reading different fanfics, 'Hey, why don't I give this a try?'. Enter me actually posting this (which is my first attempt at writing anything on here, EVER) so I was really nervous when the time came to post it. Who knows, maybe somebody will like it, or maybe nobody will. Either way, ever since I started thinking of this story I've constantly been developing it in my head, and I just needed to get it out of there. So if you made it this far, congrats! If not, you won't be reading this and won't see it anyway!

Anyway, enough blabbing from me. If all has gone well, when this is initially uploaded there should be the next three chapters uploaded alongside it, just so I could determine whether people were interested or not (cause I've kinda noticed people tend to ignore stories when they have less chapters to them, probably because they don't want to wait for more chapters to get uploaded).

But I'm still blabbing, so I'll just stop typing now. Any minute now...

Any minute...

Okay, sorry, bye
