Introduction:

Nora Valkyrie, age 17, was walking around Beacon Academy. She was indescribably, unmistakably bored. She paced the same area forming scuff marks on the walkway from where she turned on her heel.

"I'm so bored!" She wailed at the top of her lungs. "Ren is busy in the library, Pyrrha is busy practicing with Jaune, Ruby is busy with cleaning up the cookie disaster in the living area, Weiss is busy being a total Weiss, Blake is busy reading, and Yang isn't even here! Why is it whenever I want to do something, everyone is always so busy! It makes me want to vomit!" Nora collapsed on her back and looked directly into the clear blue sky. Seeing the perfect day made her even more upset than before. "And to think, yesterday I was as sick as Zwei. Everyone was available then!" Her voice cracked. "Do they not like me? I mean, I am a bit hyperactive, but I mean well." Nora sat up and grabbed her knees. "I hate being all on my own. I was so happy when Ren was there for me, I thought I'd never face these long days on my own anymore." She stood up with determination. "Fine then! If I'm not going to be appreciated, then I'll just get my things and go on my own picnic!"

Nora began to trot back towards the dorms. She threw open the door and passed by the living area to hear Ruby's working grunts, she passed by the covered walk that led to the rest of the school, she passed by each room until she reached the dorm room for team JNPR. She slammed the door open and grabbed whatever was in sight and began to run back out when suddenly WHAM her head hit something big and hard. She started to fall backwards towards the floor and the room swirled and she felt like she was spinning. The room spun faster and faster until Nora was about to throw up. And just as suddenly as the sensation had started, it came to a screeching halt.

When she finally came to, Nora sat up in the room. She rubbed her eyes and felt a twinge of pain on her head. After her vision cleared up, she looked around to see nobody in the room and the door closed.

"That's weird, I could've sworn I left this thing open." She was about to open it when she heard two barks coming from under her bed. "What in the!" She pulled the covers up to notice a terrified Zwei cowering in the center. "Come on out here you little rascal." Zwei slowly made his way out from under the bed and looked up at her with big beady eyes. She smiled and rubbed his head. He started to loosen up and did two happy barks to show his appreciation. "Alright now, let's get you back across the hall to where you belong!" She scooped the corgi into her arms and walked to the door, twisted the knob, and opened inward. She was momentarily blinded by the piercing sunlight and when her eyes finally adjusted, she noticed a big colorful world right in front of her and a yellow sidewalk leading from her room into a forest. "What."
