Hey guys Welcome to my RWBY fanfic!. there will hopefully be enough action and feels for you guys so i hope that you guys get hooked and want to see the next chapter.

Today was the day Ruby had been waiting Nearly two whole months for. She had singlehandedly stoped a crime gang from robbing a dust shop and had been accepted into beacon academy two years early for her combat prowes and was the most prestigious hunter academy in the world shure atlas was good but beacon was better because of how they treated students. Every student was different and honed their weapons and armore to suit their own personal style of combat.

Ruby had gotten little sleep since she had been accepted and had been eagerly waiting for this day.

When Ruby heard her alarm go off her eyes shot open,immediately she sprung from her bed and ran to the reeking mess that was her closet. She opened the door and immediately wished she hadn't, her closet was a landfill of dirty cloths and food wrappers and in one big heap fell to the floor in front of her.

She found the outfit she had set aside for today which was the only clean one and went to the bathroom to freshen donned her skirt put on some deodorant and ran down stairs. She slid down the railing and landed on the hardwood floor with a thud thats shook the house. Her dad scowled at her from the kitchen but had to avert his attention back to the bacon he was cooking for it had caught fire.

"morning Ruby." Her sister greeted her from the den.

"hey Yang." She replied gingerly trying to hold in her excitement. It hadn't worked though she was very easy to read partly because she was practically bouncing where she stood. Her sister hearing the enthusiasm in her voice began to roll her eyes. even though she was going to the same school as Ruby she still treated it as just a normal day.

"you excited for today." She asked in a sarcastic tone as she diped her head over the back of the couch to look at her sister.

"HELL yea I am!" She practically screamed.

"Ruby!" Her dad growled at her from the kitchen. "Language"

"Oh Sorry." She squeaked as she turned red from embaressment." I Just can't wait I'm so excited I can hardly contain it." In reality though she really hadn't contained it all that well despite her best effort to hide the fact." Anyway when are we supposed to be at the airship?" She asked with a little hint of anxiety in her voice

"Around 8:30." Yang said as she looked at her watch. "OH SHIT!" She exclaimed through a mouthful of bacon."Its almost 8:20 we gotta GO!"Yang did a backflip over the couch and shoved Ruby aside to get her bag. They both practically tripped over each other as they ran for their bags by the door ran to their father hugged him briefly and ran for the door.

"Wait you two!"Yang's hand froze inches away from the doorknob."Now I know your kids anymore but. He paused as he opened the refrigerator." I made you two lunches for your first day." He smiled a wide toothy smile as he held up two brown bags.

"Seriously dad you do know that they do have a cafateria there that gives us the food for free right?" Ruby scowled at her sister for her harsh words.

"Yang that's so mean he made us lunches and you won't accept it shame on you." Ruby took the lunch bag from her dad and smiled.

"I baked you some cookies last night and packed them for you in there." Ruby's eyes sparkled.

"Realy!" She squealed.

"Yep your favorite recipe to." He chided pleased that his handy work made his daughters day.

"Thank you thank you thank you your the best dad ever!" She said as she bounced up and down. She hugged him once again.

"Yang." Her father called in a singsong voice. I packed your favorite breakfast borrito."Yang was upon him faster than he could register almost as fast as Ruby.

"Oh my god your the best dad EVER!" She screamed as she put her dad into a bone crushing hug which he returned.

"Ooohhk hugging time is over you to need to go." Yang gasped as she looked at her watch. We only have eight minutes left hurry Ruby before it's to late." She grabbed Ruby and ran for the door.

They burst out the door of their cottage ungracefully and ran down the path that would take them to town,as they did they heard they're father saying he loved them but the goodbye was quickly drowned out by heavy footfalls and the thought of they're own hopes for beacon.

"Come on Ruby its almost time faster faster lets go!" Yang tried to yell but she was to exhausted after the nearly one and a half mile sprint it took them to get there. It was 8:31 and as they rounded the corner they caught sight of the airship and redoubled their efforts to get there in time. The airship was just about to take off but one of the attendants heard them yelling and spoke into the radio in his hand for the ship to halt as the pair came panting towards him.

The attendant tried to greet them but they instead of stoping to return his welcome aboard they simply ran past him without so much as glancing at him as they handed him they're tickets . He just closed his eyes and sighed before he informed the captain to take off.

"We...made...it." Ruby panted as she sprawl out onto a chair by the window. Yang did a fist pump motion into the air as she laid back on a bench beside her.

Though Ruby's home town of Patch was only an hour away from the Main city of Vale by airship and was a relatively short ride to Ruby it felt like an eternity."why are airships so slow." She though to herself her face pressed against the glass of the window. She watched as clouds whipped hadn't realized that a couple were staring at her from across the aisle and she hurriedly straightened herself trying to suppress a blush. only until she actually looked out the window did she notice beacon tower.

The shimmering monument that was Beacon tower loomed over the campus seemingly watching over everything,keeping a seemingly unwavering watch over the citizens of Vale and their ambitions. Ruby stared at the scene below her. She had never been in an airship this high before and she could see the entire city of vale as well as the section she that made up the city. She saw the large residential district of west vale the commercial district that surrounded that and the large loading and unloading docks of east vale where you could get anything you wanted at the many shops in the area. And just south of all that her tiny island home of patch sequestered away from the rest of the world her little paradise.

As She was about to drift off into a daydream a voice over the intercom came on.

"Attention all passengers we will be ariveing shortly please grab all of your belongings and priced to the nearest exit in an orderly fashion." Ruby quickly dined her bag and went to find Yang who was sitting at the front of the aisle she was in. Her sister was talking to some of her friends who had made it to beacon as well when Ruby approached her.

She appeared to be haveing an argument with a boy in a blue hoodie that was leaning against the wall.

"All I'm saying is that punching everything is not going to solve all your problems."

"oh yea well what will."Yang retorted with her hands on her hips that were pushed out to her right side.

"What will solve your problems is if you think about what you do before you do it or as us more sofisticated individuals would say common sense." He snickered

"oh yea well I'll show you some common sense right here right now if you'd like." She put up her fists ready to begin a brawl on the spot. The boy scolded her.

"Tisk tisk risk my dear dandelion that would Be very unladylike don't you think?" Yang scoffed

"I'm appalled that you would mistake me for a lady." She replied doing a small curtsy as she fanned her face with her hand.

"ha as if,if anything your a blundering bohemoth who can't take a joke."

"Oh ho ho you've done it now pretty boy get ready for a..." she stoped as she noticed her sister scowling at her. " oh Ruby what are you doing here?" Ruby raised her eyebrow.

"uhh I'm going to the same school as you remember?"

"oh yea I sorta...forgot." Ruby sighed heavily

"And Yang what did dad tell your about geting into fights with random strangers?"

"Ahem I'm standing right here, and also I am affended you would call me a pretty boy."

"uhh do you mind I'm trying to talk to my sister so could you stop being a pompous ass for two seconds.." She groaned at him. He raised his hands in defeat.

"I know when I'm not wanted,please continue with your conversation sorry I decided to open my mouth please accept my sincerest apologies." There was no hint of sarcasm in his voice,he bowed in fromt for her.

"sooooo as I was saying Yang dad wouldent want your to get into anybody trouble,I wouldent want you to get into any trouble,so please just promise me you won't get into anything serious...please?" Yang looked intimate Ruby's eyes and saw nothing but concern. She sighed heavily closeting her eyes.

Yang held her hand up as if takeing an oath. "I, Yang Xai Long do promise not to stir up any unwanted trouble amidst the common folk of our fair city and that USB a sister siting promise." She finished and put her hand down."You happy now?"

"Ruby nodes her headband in affirmation"Quite." Now apologize to him and meet me by the exit."

Yang's mouth shot open as if Ron say words burn Ruby interrupted her.

"There will be no but you are going to apologize to him even if I have to stand here and watch your do it." She growled

"uuhhh fine mom I'll do it." Happy that she got herb point across the little hooded girl briskly walked towards the exit sodtly humming. Yang turned around to face the boy who she threatened to pummel earlier,only he was looking looking at the ground thinking.

"Hey." She practically tossed the word at him. He looked startled at the new conversation."Look I shouldent have threatened to pummel your face into paste and...well what I'm trying to say is."

"I'm sorry." He finished for her. I shouldent have been such a jerk and I was only like that's because I don't get to mess around with people where I'm from a lot so I kinda just took my chance while I could and I'm sorry for makeing your sister worry,I can tell she means a lot to you." Yang was at a loss for words, a moment ago she had been ready rob him of his teeth but now she was touched at the unexpected words.

"well like I said I'm sorry for threatening you and calling you names it wasent real you nice."

"Appology accepted mrs dandelion." Yang smirked. Suddenly not the airship shook as they docked at the port of the school.

"well I'll see you around I guess."

" yea see you around." He flashed her some finger guns and winked. Yang rolled her eyes as Shen smiled.

"Yang!" Ruby becomes her sister to her through the crowd of people leaving the ship. "Come on I wanna get off already." Yang grabbed her backpack at her side and walked to her sister.


Ruby knocked into every person that was in her way determined to be the first one off the ship and onto the schools grounds. As she shoved the people around her struggling for dominance the people she waded through said silent swears towards her and only did she stop as a Faunus girl said something sounding suspiciously like "Stupid Bitch." She ignored the comment and kept looking back at her sister whom was actually talking to the boy she threatened.

Ruby took pride in her ability to inspire forgiveness in others,it was one of the qualities that made her like her mother. She began to grow impatient and called to her sister as she Saab the boy leave her.

"Yang,come on I wanna get offbeat already." She waited on her tip toes until her sister finally made it up to her by the door.

"Shall we." Yang guestured towards the door.

" we shal." She mocked in her best regal sounding voice as she walked out the door.

Ruby's eye sparkled at the sight of it, she barely suppressed the urge to shed tears as her sister came over and wrapped her arm around her neck and gave her a a soft squeeze. This was the day she had been waiting for she had no words to describe the way she felt other than"wow."

"Yea its pretty great isn't it sis." Yang said as she let go of her now struggling sister.

"Oh my god its so big i mean I knew it was big but this is amazeing." She exclaimed as she stretched her arm in a sweeping motion gesturing to the school. Just as the pair was about to head off to find where they're dorm was located the muffled clash of metal could be heard from just down the path.

"wonder what that is?" Yang said questioningly as she nodded in the direction of the noise.

"why don't we go find out?" Ruby replied as she briskly started walking towards the noise. Yang just rolled her eyes. As the two approached what looked like a training ground cheers could be heard as one of the two combatants had been thrown to the ground by a hard kick to the chest and as the fighter doubled over frantically looking for his sword a figure loomed over him and pointed their spearhead at the boys throat. "yield."the figure said in a tone that suggested it was not a request.

As the boy raised his hands up in defeat the woman pulled back her spear and looked the boy over contemplating something. After what looked like a brief reflection in her head she finally said. "your strikes are solid but they lack the punch they need try and bend your knees as you strike,also when you parry don't look at your opponents blade look at them and try to predict where they'l strike next."

The blond haired boy who had been beaten had a look of shame on his face. He sighed heavily before looking back up at the woman

"thank you miss Nikos." Before he could start to stand she offered him her hand,he grabbed hold and she heaved him to his feet.

"Come now." she said "you don't have to be so down about it you did great you just need some time and effort and who knows,you could some day be as good as me with a little practice" she said with a seductive smile. He perked up a little after hearing what she had said"and please,call me Pyrrha." The boy had a look of surprise on his face as he realized she was waiting for him to tell her his name.

"oh uhh Ark,Jaune Ark."He stuttered

"well it has been a pleasure sparring with you mr ark." She mused as she left to the locker room. Ruby couldn't believe her eyes the world renowned fighter the champion Pyrrha Nikos was here. She hadn't noticed her mouth had dropped. But her sister had though she walked over to her and with a fluid motion closed her mouth."close your mouth Ruby you'l catch flies." She said in a voice clearly trying to imitate a stern mother.

The boy who had been fighting with Pyrrha had started walking away. Ruby saw that he was obviously bumbed that he lost so being the great person she is she went over to him. "Hey." She called out to him

He flinched at her words not expecting the greeting"Uh hello." He studdered at the new arrival of conversation he was not ready for. "So did you see the fight?" He hoped that she hadn't because she was the first person to choose to talk to him all day and he dident want to ruin his chances of makeing a new friend. "No all I saw was that last part where she grounded you."

"Shit." He thought "she did see it." Just as he thought she was going to humilliate him she walked over to him and sat with him on the bench he had secured by the sand pit that was the sparing arena. She looked into his eyes and said."there's no need to be ashamed, I mean she's Pyrrha freaking Nikos the world renound fighter that's to be expected.

"So you don't think that I'm a failure?" He asked with the smallest strand of hope in his voice.

"nope, I mean do you think that I would have lasted any longer than you did she could probably can beat fourth year students with ease I think you did great. Those few words improved his mood immensely and confidence surfaced in his voice."thanks,say I dident catch your name."

"oh." Ruby exclaimed" were are my manners my name is Ruby guessing from what I heard your Jaune Ark.

"yep that's me." He exclaimed as his voice cracked he tried to cover up his embaresed blush with a partly confident smile.

"So what are you doing here Jaune?

"Oh we'll that's easy I'm here to fight monsters and save people."

"No like why are you here why did you decide to become a huntsman of all things."

Jaune hadent realy thought about it until now and had to think for a few seconds before he had come up with a decent answer.

" Well I-I guess I might here to...follow I my family's footsteps and be a hero and save those who can't save themeselfes"

"That's a prety goodbye reason for being here I'd say."

"Well why are you here Ruby?"

"it um well it's prety dumb you wouldent want to hear it."

"Nonesence my mother always told me that you should always trust in those who Steven willing to listen,now tell me Ruby why are you here?"

"well um I want to be like the heroes in he books you know the ones where they fight evil and save people on the way and live happily ever after."" It's rely dumb I understand if you think it's childish-."

" nope not at all I think it's a noble cause wirty fighting for and that you William do well trying to accomplish your goal."

"Wow this started out as a pep talk for you and Nieves I'm the one geting inspirational speeches." She chuckled.

" well that she what friends are for right they help each other."

"Friends." She questioned.

" Yea shure you can see urban that way I mean we are already prety my much open to each other why Not I mean I could benefit from haveing another friend."" Yea friend I like the sound of that Jaune Ark and Ruby friends, hasn't a nice ring to it don't you think?"

"Yea I guess it does, just don't be let it get to your head."

"oh don't worry I it won't I'm careful like that."

Ruby chucked again

"well I have to go find my sister I hope I see you around."she cheerped cheerfully.

"yea me to It was fun talking with you." He stated gleefuly as gen waved goodbye,no wonder off to find that locker room.. Ruby found her sister siting in the middle of a crowd of older students,she confronted her sister with malice.

"My dearest sister Yang I can't believe you would abandon me after being here not an hour." Yang looked at the congregatiin that had surrounded her with a worried glance and quickly grabbed her sister and took her around the corner of the training grounds. "Ruby." The Anger in her tone was apparent. "Stop embarrassing me in front of all my- she was cut of by Ruby's pissed looking face and decided to choose her next words carefully."Ruby." she pleaded can I at least have one more minute before we go aimlessly walking the grounds again.

Ruby's anger toward her sister soard to new heights at these new words. "NO Yang we are going to find our rooms and stay there for the rest of the day do you hear me. Yang had hoped her pleading would be enough but alas it was in vain. Once her sister set her mind on something she wouldent stop especially when she was angry.

so Yang opted to let her sister take the lead to who knows where. The pair made they're way down to the main office and discovered that they would not get they're dorms till the very next day when teams would be chosen. Instead of having a room they had to sleep in one of the many large common rooms that were on every level of the school.

After the unfortunate news they decided to find the caffateria and get some lunch and as Yang hoped Ruby would find some friends. Since Ruby had been advanced two years she had to abandon her friends at signal and because of that she had none currently at beacon. So Yang and Ruby went table to table trying to find somewhere to finally came across an interesting looking couple at a table with some open seats.

"So there I was on th-."

the girl was cut off from going any further in her story as Yang and Ruby took their seats across from the other two. It was an odd pairing to say the least the girl wore a navy blue t-shirt that had the words 'boop' embroidered on the chest and she had ginger hair and green-ish blue eyes. The boy siting next to her wore a green over coat and jeans,he also had a single pink streak in his hair and deep magenta eyes.

The two stoped to look at them before the girl unexpectedly blurted out"Hello fellow student what brings you to our fine castle this day!" The unexpected greeting startled ruby and nearly threw her off balance.

"sup." Yang smiled."So hows your guys day been."

"Its been..." The boy paused and looked at his partner who had begun slurping up noodles loudly. "Eventful,to say the least." "my names Ren nice to meet you,and that over there would be Nora." Upon hearing her name Nora paused her slurping and smiled her teeth full of food.

"Heloooo." the ginger haired girl said in a singsong voice.

"My names Yang,this is my sister Ruby."She gestured at her sister who immediately shrank but managed a quiet"hi."

"Nice to meet you both,how has your day been going so far?"

Yangs head thudded against the table loudly.

"Exhausting."

The boy narrowed his eyes " I see, care to elaborate on that."

"I would but I'm currently to tired to answer that question."

"My day has been pretty good." This time it was Ruby who took up the conversation. Its beautiful here don't you think?"

"Yes indeed the grounds are very remarkable and not to mention where we are possitioned above the city I bet it makes for good sunsets."

"That sounds like it could be cool we should do that sometime." Ruby bit so subtly hinted.

"I think it would be a great idea to indulge in some relaxation before our classes start up in two days."

Another thud shook the table.

"Uhhhh school and work." Ruby groaned as she pulled the brown bag out of her backpack her dad gave her. She opened it and began to savor the deliciously sweet contents inside.

"Hey you mind if I have one?" Nora asked.

"Shure." Ruby said through a mouthful of cookie as she reached into the bag for another one. " hey do you want one to Ren." She asked politely.

"No thank you I've had enough for today but thank you for asking."

"no problem friend." Yanng you want one to?"

Her only response was her raised hand. Ruby dug into the bag some more and finally found another cookie which she threw into her sisters hand whingave a thumbs up. Yang sat up and took a large bite from it.

"Mmmmm dads recipe,Ruby you are one very lucky girl."

Ruby blushed a smile she took a bit from her cookie

"Aww your just jealous he made me cookies and not you."

"Well for your information I have something better than you're cookies."

Ruby almost fainted at the words.

"Yang nothing is better than dads cookies nothing I tell you nothing." Her voice got a little higher than she wanted and earned her some stairs from some of the other students.

"Sooo Nora what do you think of my fathers cookies?"

Nora suddenly belched loudly patting her stomach.

"Mmmmm that was was delicious your dad is almost as good a cook as Ren,maybe better." She mistcheviously smiled at him.

Ren just raised and eyebrow and continued to read something on his scroll.

"You know Nora if you feeel that way you should get their father to make you pankackes in the morning."

Nora's expression fell.

"No no no I dident mean it like that I was just playing around,right guys." She looked nervously at the other two sitting across from her. The sisters looked at each other for a moment trying to figure out why pancakes were so important.

"Uhhh yea what she said."Yang assured him

Ren went unfazed by her words and continued to scroll through articles while sipping his tea.

"Do what are you guys doing here together are you guys friends did you just meet or are you guys more than friends..."she trailed off trying to think of another thing.

"oh no we aren't together tigether we're just good friends we've known each other for years and are kind of attached to each other."We also don't have any parents to help us out with anything so we just are trying to do what we can to help others just as unfortunate as us."

"Oh I'm so sorry to hear that." Ruby said

"Yea that's aweful I can't imagine what it would be like without my parents." Yang started to shudder at the thought."

"Oh don't worry about it were used to it by now and it doesent realy bother us since we have each other,right Ren." she asked as if she dident know the answer hersel.

The boy slowly closed the apps on his scroll turned it off and politely put it in the table takeing another sip of his tea.

"Yes Nora we are used to it by now."

The girl smiled some more as her statement was proven true. The group engaged in small talk here and there about the school and what classes they were takeing and once they talked about weapons Ruby wouldent shut up despite her sisters attempts. But after an hour or so the other two left to find their dorms and the sisters decided it was a good idea as well.

They learned earlier that they were to sleep in the halls and the common rooms since no one was assigned teams yet.

"Oh man." Ruby groaned. " can't believe we have to sleep on the ground we didn't even bring anything to change into but our armor" The outrage in her voice was apparent but there was nothing they could do until they're luggage arrived the next day. Ruby cut her losses and laid to rest next to her already snoring sister. After the day she had sleep was a welcome thought to entertain,as she closed her eyes she imagined what the next day would bring dreams of action and adventure in mind Ruby grew drowsy next to her sisters darkened outline next to her curled up into a ball and soon she feel asleep.
