RWBY and the Goose

The day was set to be just like any other normal day. The alarm had gone off and team Ruby was getting ready along with everyone else when she suddenly remembered what day it was. "Oh my gosh," Ruby screamed while drying her hair, practically throwing her towel into the air, "today is pairing day!" "Pairing what," responded Yang confused? "Don't tell me you forgot," Weiss said, " for a whole week we're going to be paired with a second year team and train with them." "Seriously," Yang whined,"a whole week, but I had plans I was gon-." Ruby cut Yang off "But aren't you kinda excited Yang," Ruby said, "We'll get to pal around with some second years isn't that cool." "I'm already friends with Velvet," Yang replied, "Hmm maybe we'll get paired up with team CFVY wouldn't that be cool," Ruby said. Blake was showering however, given her Faunus hearing she was still able to tell what they were talking about. Blake walked out of the bathroom and said "That would be nice but, but I'd like to meet some different second years, I don't know very many of them." "That's because you need to get out more," Yang teased. Blake shot a sour look at Yang but Yang quickly asked, "I wonder who we'll be paired up with," Weiss quickly responded, "We won't just be paired up with any old 2nd year team, it's only the best of the second years that get the privilege of teaching the younger students." Blake quickly followed up "While that was the case I hear that these days most if not all second year teams qualify, it's just a question of whether or not they choose to be a part of it or not." "I also found out that a majority of the teams actually say no to it," Blake continued. Weiss said "I'm surprised you know that Blake," Blake replied with "Well I did ask around a bit, getting paired up with a second year team sounded kinda cool so I did some research." "Ooh I didn't know you had a thing for older guys," teased Yang in a sultry voice. "No it's not like that," "hey guys what time were we supposed to go," Ruby asked? Weiss who was still getting dressed replied "We are supposed to be their at 7:30 for a presentation and to find out who are going to be paired with." They all on cue looked at the clock, it was 7:19. They had about 11 minutes to finish getting ready and to rush to the auditorium which would prove to be an interesting challenge. Quickly all of them scrambled to finish getting ready and stormed to the auditorium.

As they arrived they quickly scanned around, and after a small search were able to find the members of team JNPR. They attempted to both quickly and quietly rush their way through the various lined up teams next to them. All the other teams quickly turned their heads to inspect the new arrivals, Ruby made an uncomfortable look, while both Weiss and Blake tried to hide their faces. Yang on the other hand made a mischievous almost goofy smile. They settled down next to team JNPR, and listened to what remained of Ozpin's speech. It was Ozpin's usual lecture, a combination of both proverbs and ambiguous advice nothing too particularly new though he seemed to have an emphasis on safety. After the lecture had finished Glenda quickly stepped onto the stage and begun announcing the various pairs. She ran through each pair quickly but tried her best to make sure she was coherent. Her list seemed to be in no particular order "Team CRDL with Team HAVN (pronounced Haven), Team JNPR with Team RHNO (pronounced rhino), Team RWBY." And with that the anticipation was building in all four of the girls. They had hoped to be paired with their friends at team CFVY, or maybe perhaps with one of the more well known teams like HAVN however what followed was something that left them a bit stumped. "Team GOSE,"(pronounced goose) the four girls all let out a sort of collective "huh" or "what." It didn't bother them so much that they had never heard of this team GOSE, what had actually bothered them was the name, team GOSE; it was a bit underwhelming to say the least. After Glenda finished with the other teams everyone began scattering around looking for their respective teams. Jaune showed a bit of worry about being paired up with team RHNO. Team RHNO fitting with the name was known for their insane training sessions and intense fighting spirit. Despite at first it being a bit hectic most teams were able to find themselves quickly. The seconds years were the ones doing most of the finding, as they had been informed beforehand who their pair would be. As most of the teams were leaving team RWBY didn't know where to start, they were so stumped by the name they didn't bother to look at the screen to see the faces of the team they would be paired with. Each of the girls were facing a different direction looking around when they heard a soft and warm voice speak, "team RWBY right?" All of them quickly turned to find 4 guys all standing next to each other like ducks in a row, "Nice to meet you," the voice said "we're Team GOSE."
