Chapped 1
Welcome to Beacon
The blimp to beacon was seconds away from arriving at its destination.
One thing was for sure no one knew what to expect.
We start our tale with one man and his goal to find out the secret of the Dust thieves.
Shade Leaf kept his Gauntlet readied as he walked onto the grounds he looked at the school.
"Now's the time."
Shade began to walk toward school.
"So this is Beacon seems promising."
Shade wasn't looking where he was going and he bumped into someone.
Shade fell on his back and he saw Hiroki standing in front of him.
Hiroki looked back at Shade and then walked away.
"Sorry about that"
Shade sighed then laid back down on his back.
"Great first impression"
Shade noticed a shadow covering him.
He looked up and saw Dawn looking down at him.
"Need some help there"
She held her hand out to him.
She helped Shade up.
"Thanks"
"No problem."
"So what's your name?"
"Dawn Psy your name?
"Shade Leaf"
"A shady Leaf"
"Ha ha very funny"
They both began to walk to the school.
"So what's your reason for coming to Beacon?"
Shade lifted his eyebrow.
"Why do you want to know?"
"Well we need some kind of conversation"
"I want to become a huntsman I have the strength for it and my knowledge in creating weapons."
"Really what's your weapon?"
Shade shrugged his shoulders.
"What's the harm in showing her?"
Shade revealed his Gauntlet from under his cloak
"A Gauntlet?"
"Yeah but that's not all."
Shade pulled his blade out of his Gauntlet.
"It helps me hold my blade rifle."
"Ok now that's creative."
"Yeah you wouldn't believe how many tries it took to create this."
Shade placed his blade back into his Gauntlet.
"Alright my turn what's your weapon?"
A sudden explosion shook the grounds.
Shade looked behind him.
"Wonder what that was?Anyway.."
He looked forward once again and Dawn was gone.
"I wonder where she went off to."
Shade decided to walk back and see what that explosion was about.
He passed several people including Weiss Blake,Rwby and Jaune.
He saw the explosion marks left on the ground.
"I guess I was worried for nothing."
"Worried about what?"
Shade turned around and saw Erika standing behind him.
"Nothing I heard an explosion and thought something was wrong."
"Well you worried for nothing that girl in red sneezed when a lot of dust in her system."
"How did that happen?"
"Apparently she landed in some suitcases with dust in it."
"Why would someone have that much dust on them."
"This girl was a schnee."
"And suddenly everything makes sense."
Erika laughed
"Now that's funny what's your name?"
"Shade Leaf"
"Shady Leaf"
"I swear if someone calls me that again I'll kill someone."
"Sorry but your name isn't very common."
"Oh well what's your name?"
"Erika Hinotori"
"A Japanese name isn't so common ether you know."
"Yeah I know."
Erika noticed that no one was around them.
"Oh no we're gonna be late for orientation"
"Oh you have to be kidding me I knew I shouldn't have gone back."
They hurried to orientation and just made it as ozpin was about to make his speech.
"I'll keep this brief.You have traveled here today in search of knowledge to hone your craft and acquire new skills and when you have finished you have planned to dedicate your life to the people. But I look amongst you and all I see is wasted energy need of purpose, direction. You assume knowledge will free you. Your time at this school will show you that knowledge will only take you so far. It is up to you to take the first step."
Ozpin left the Mike and Glynda took his place.
"You will gather in the ballroom tonight tomorrow your initiation begins. Be ready you are dismissed."
Nightfall began quickly.
Shade was working on his Gauntlet.
"If I make the launch system fast enough I won't have to worry about."
"What are you doing?"
Shade nearly jumped.
Dawn was looking over him again.
"Nothing just the usual maintenance."
"You know you could just get a scabbard for your blade."
"No it's better this way but why do you keep showing up out of nowhere?"
"I don't know what your talking about I just walk towards you. You just are always focused on something other than your surroundings."
Shade laughed a little.
"I guess that's true."
Shade then noticed something.
He looked behind Dawn and saw Hiroki leaning against a stone pillar.
"Hey Dawn whos th-"
Dawn had disappeared again.
"Ok when I see her again I am definitely asking her why she keeps doing that"
Shade kept looking around he then noticed a certain blonde haired woman he knew.
Shade walked over to her.
"Yang?"
Yang turned around and saw Shade.
"Shade"
Yang hugged Shade"
"Oh my god how are you?"
"I'm good I'm good I didn't know you were going to this school."
"Yeah well it's not just me"
Yang moved to the side to reveal Ruby behind her.
"My little sister here got skipped ahead two years to join us at Beacon."
"Oh so your the famous Ruby I've heard about."
"My sister mentioned me"
"Yeah but enough talk of that my name is Shade Leaf."
Ruby began to talk.
"And if you call me Shady leaf I will jump out that window"
Ruby and Yang had confused looks.
"It's been a long day"
"Yeah you can say that again."
"I'll see you two later."
Shade walked back to his spot when he was suddenly pounced on.
"Surprise"
"Erika"
Shade pushed her off him.
He noticed that Hiroki has not move an inch since he went over to yang.
"Hey Erika do you know who that is."
Erika saw Hiroki.
"That's Hiroki Darque why do you ask?"
"I accidentally bumped into him earlier and he had a cold look at me."
Erika looked at Shade seriously.
"Hiroki is a mystery to everyone he's only known for his strength."
"Well tomorrow is gonna be interesting."
"Yeah well later."
Erika left and Shade was left with his thoughts.
"OK so today I bumped into some random guy who's so mysterious nobody knows anything except him being strong, A girl who keeps vanishing for some reason, a girl who pounced on me for some reason."
Shade smiled
"Hell of a day"
