I DONT OWN RWBY, WISH I DID BUT I DONT SO ENJOY.

"Okay class we have a new student, and we decided it would be more interesting to introduce her through a fight so do I have any volunteers for welcoming our newest student?"

Ruby practically bounced out of her seat with excitement as she flung her arm into the air waving it wildly, as if she wasn't the only person with their hand raised.

"Okay Ruby down you come then"

Jumping to her feet she practically ran down the stairs to the stage, reaching the edge of the ring just as the doors opened and a girl dressed all in black and white glided in. The girl wore a white cloak the main body of which seemed to be covered in feathers while the top and the hood was a plain white cloth, she wore a plain black cropped vest and tight black pants tucked into knee high black leather boots, the other noticeable thing about her was the large staff she carried it was about the same height as her and had a small glass ball at the top as well as long coloured swirls twisting up the shaft of the staff.

Everyone watched as she approached the stage stepping up she pushed the hood back revealing a pretty heart shaped face with eire glowing mismatched eyes one was a very pale silver while the other was such a dark grey it was almost black, and her hair was a mass of thick raven coloured curls although a single strand that fell in the almost black eye was a shocking white. Nodding to the teacher who said "Everyone this is Dove White, Dove this is Ruby Rose and she will be your opponent in your first fight. Whenever you both are ready you may begin"

Ruby pulled out Crescent Rose and it formed into its scythe form, laughter startled Ruby into to looking at Dove and she saw her almost doubled over in laughter, "You think my weapon is funny?!"

Shaking her head slightly Dove sucked in great lungfuls of air and managed to wheeze out "Not funny just the irony"

"What irony?"

Straitening up though her face was flushed and her shoulders still shook slightly she lifted her staff and brought it down hard and from the top end of the staff a long curved blade extended forming into an impressive looking scythe.

"Oh we have the same weapon, I can kind of see why that is funny now." A small giggle escaped her. "Right now lets get down to the fight, we can talk more and exchange scythe tips after if you want."

Nodding Dove dropped into a ready position, Ruby mimicking her. The computer system counted down from three then announced 'fight' shooting forwards sparks flew as the two scythes clashed, spinning away and swinging her scythe in a wide arc Dove lunged forwards again, and again and again. The pair clashed repeatedly but the matched weapons meant it was hard to score any hits.

Finally deciding enough was enough Ruby folded her scythe turning it into a huge gun and firing at Dove, who was forced to arc backwards turning the near fall into a neat walk over. Flicking the scythe it turned into a staff again, launching from her crouched position she swung the staff and as she did it all the long colourful channels seem to swirl to life glowing brightly. The light gathered at the ball at the top of the staff and at the peek of her swing the staff shot off multiple brilliantly coloured beams of light which seemed to slow at the top of there arc and as dove lifted one arm and swung it down towards ruby they all dropped falling before seeming to gain direction again and shot straight towards Ruby. Moving so fast she seemed to blur Ruby sprinted out of the target range of the light and as she stopped expecting to see the light hit the ground and blow up, she was astounded to see Dove spin throwing both her arms out towards Ruby and as she did the lights swerved to follow her direction once again on course to collide with her. Moving again to avoid the lights a brief game of cat and mouse ensued ending with Dove's lights slamming into Ruby and sending her flying, the power of the shot was clear to see as after one hit most fights would continue but that one hit from Doves staff dropped Ruby's aura into the danger zone.

Shocked and surprised applause drifted around the room, although no one really seemed to know what to say. The teacher approached and said "thank you Dove and thank you Ruby, why don't both of you go and take a seat and we will begin with our scheduled sparing both of you shall be exempt today as you have already fought."

Dove pov

As soon as the teacher was done speaking I walked over to Ruby and held out a hand for her to take, when her hand grasped mine I realised just how tiny she really was. Pulling her to her feet I smiled and said "so how would you like to trade scythe tips now?"

Laughing lightly she said "Sure, you can sit with me and my team" trailing after her as she led the way to her seat, I watched the crowd as they murmured amongst them selves snorting and shaking my head at some of the things I heard. "Whats so funny?"

Smiling I said "Half the class are trying to guess what my semblance and the other is coming up with reasons for why i'm transferring into the school so late."

"Why are you transferring into the school so late?"

Smirking I said "I got kicked out of the last one"

"Wha...how? what did you do?"

Biting my lip I said "I may have destroyed half the school in a fight with a rival"

"Oh my gosh that is awesome, you are gonna love my sister Yang"

When we reached the group I took note of the members, there was a stiff looking girl with white hair and bluish silver eyes, a warm looking girl with waist length yellow hair, and finally a quiet black haired girl. I barely had to look at the dark haired girl to know she was Faunus, cat probably I could feel the tingle of familiarity on her. Apparently she could too as she blinked at me and then seemed to search me for my identifying feature, little did she know it was right in front of her, no one ever saw the huge white wings draped across my back posing as a cloak.

Smiling I attached names to faces as Ruby introduced them, stiff white girl was Weiss, warm yellow girl was her sister Yang, and the dark haired Faunus was Blake. shooting them all a warm smile I said "I would introduce my self but you all already know my name, but it is nice to meet all of you"

"Yes its nice to meet you too Dove" Weiss sounded as stiff and formal as she looked.

Yang and Blake both just nodded to me before returning to their quiet conversation.

Nodding back I took a seat next to Ruby and smiled as we started trading scythe information, like care and sharpening tips and also chatting about how she wields Crescent Rose compared to me and Harvest Cloud (her weapons name).

I just caught Blake whisper to Yang "She is Faunus" and saw Yangs surprised expression

Yang responded by whispering back "How can you tell? I can't see anything different about her"

"Like is drawn to like, I can feel it"

"Oh...how do you think she is hiding her trait"

Shrugging slightly Blake replied "Not all are immediately apparent, she will tell us when she wants to"

Frowning I turned my attention back to Ruby just in time to catch her telling me the lesson was over and we need to go, nodding I stood and followed to group to the lunch hall.
