Author's Note- I decided to revise the first couple of chapters and clear up a bunch of stuff that ended up confusing in the chapters that I haven't put out yet. I moved the time of events up a little bit and changed a couple details. I have also added a bit of back story for Weiss (sorry if it gets boring, it won't really be relevant for a while, but I wanted to write it. I'm a band nerd, get over it). You can skip most of it if you want. Most of chapters 1-3 have been compressed to make this, so my chapters will be a little longer from now on. Anyways, thanks for reading, and if you have any comments or anything put it in a review or something. I really appreciate people for reading this and I hope I didn't screw this up by remaking it. (Note- I will keep the other story up, and if you think that one is better than I can just do that. Thanks)

Weiss breathed in deeply and stepped out of her car, stretching her back out as she did so. She had finally arrived at Beacon University after a long several hours on the road. She was ecstatic to be starting her first year in college, yet nervous at the same time. She began to wonder about all the experiences that lie ahead. Weiss was ready for her adventures into the modern world to begin so she could finally make a career.

Weiss was majoring in business, upon the request of her father, a wealthy businessman whose company was renowned across the world. Originally he had not pushed Weiss to study business, but in her later years of private teachings he had pushed the aspects of business upon her. He had told her that he expected her to inherit the business once she finished college, and that he wanted her to major in the subject. Weiss was not thrilled at the idea, having planned to major in other things, yet she knew that disobeying her father was not an option so she began to study the subject.

She began taking business classes and, with assistance from her father, excelled at understanding the aspects of business and economics. She was happy that she had a good future planned for herself, but she still felt disappointed in not being able to study her chosen subject.

Early on in her life she began to possess a keen ear for music. She began to learn the piano via a private tutor, and soon did not need them. She was extremely gifted at the instrument, and excelled at various wind instruments as well. She had hoped to major in music, and help to teach other people throughout Vale. Unfortunately, her father was never around to witness her giftedness, mostly on the account of his business, therefore he did not understand her reasons behind her wanting to study it.

Weiss tried to convince him for several months, even getting her mother to vouch for her and to explain how good she was at playing. However, both of them knew that in the end, her father's word was above theirs regardless. In one of her final attempts at persuasion, Weiss asked her father why her older sister, Winter, couldn't run the business. Her father looked her dead in the eyes and said to her.

"It was the intention for both of you to run it, yet Winter showed more potential in a more successful field of study."

"But I can be successful if I study this!" Weiss complained.

"That you may, but you are the last one that is able to care for the business, and you will be more successful than you ever will in your chosen profession." He stated adamantly.

Weiss knew she couldn't win this battle, and eventually backed down. She desperately wanted to study music, yet she couldn't help not knowing that her father was right. Most careers in music didn't bring in as much income as others, and with no other siblings she was the only one left to inherit the company. She could try as much as she wanted, but in the end she had to follow her father and take over the company.

And there she now stood, exhausted after a long drive, in the middle of the parking lot of one of the most prestigious universities in all of Remnant. She sighed and grabbed her registration papers. She walked into the main office of the school and stood in line with the other students waiting to check in. Eventually she got to the front of the line and registered with the lady. She was assigned a dorm, #207 on the eastern side of the campus, and was given a list of information on what to have for classes and other school related events. Before she left, Weiss had a quick question to ask.

"Do you know who my roommate is going to be?" she asked the lady.

"One moment." She said. She scrolled through the information on her computer and a moment later answered, "Your roommate is a girl by the name of Ruby Rose. She checked in earlier this morning."

"Thank you." Weiss replied.

"Our pleasure Ma'am, and welcome to Beacon." The lady answered back.

Weiss exited the building and drove to where her dorm was located. As she got out of her car she could clearly see a light coming from the inside, meaning her roommate was most likely inside. She went and knocked on the door. She heard movement come from within, and soon the door was opened by a large blonde girl with more than…adequate features about her.

"Hello." Weiss said.

"Hello," the girl answered, "who are you?"

"My name's Weiss, I'm the person assigned to this dorm." Weiss replied, "And who are you?"

"I'm Yang," she answered once more. "So I guess that would make you my sister's roommate. Come on, I will introduce you to her."

She motioned for Weiss to follow her, and they went to the main room that contained two beds, one for each roommate. On the one farthest from the door sat a red-headed girl looking out of a window. Before approaching the girl, Yang leaned in and told Weiss something silently.

"I just want to tell you, Ruby has some really bad social anxiety problems, so she is most likely going to have a tough time these first few days. I'm going to stick around as much as I can to help her out, but once she gets to know you hopefully you can try and help."

"Okay?" Weiss said, not quite sure what she was getting into.

The two girls then walked over to where the girl was sitting. Yang stepped forward and began to speak to the girl.

"Ruby, your roommate is here, you've got to try and meet her."

Ruby whispered something softly to Yang.

"Come on Ruby, you have got to at least try and get to know her. She seems really nice, and she is going to be around more than I will once the semester starts." Yang told her.

Ruby took several deep breaths and looked at Weiss for a few moments before speaking.

"Hello." She said softly

"Hello…Ruby I think. I'm Weiss, your roommate." Weiss answered.

The girl starred at Weiss for several minutes without saying a word. Then she put her head down suddenly and began to stare at the floor. Her face also began to turn a bright red color, as if she were embarrassed about something. After another moment or so she jumped up and rushed past Weiss and Yang and into the bathroom. There was an audible noise heard as she locked the door from the inside. Weiss stood there, very confused as to what had just happened.

"Did…did I do something wrong?" she asked Yang.

Yang sat down on the bed and placed her head in her hands. "No, that went just as I expected it too. It has nothing to do with you; it's just that her anxiety is really bad, especially around new people."

"Is she going to be okay?" Weiss asked.

"Yeah, once she gets to know you and get comfortable with everything she should be fine, it will just take a while" Yang replied.

"You can start bringing your stuff in if you want. Do you need any help with it?"

"No thanks, I don't have a whole lot of things." Weiss answered.

She began to bring her stuff inside while Yang tried to convince Ruby to come out. When she finished, Ruby hadn't come out yet so Yang was still at the door. This gave Weiss a chance to examine the dorm.

Beacon's dorms were much larger and nicer than most other colleges. This was mostly because it was one of the best schools across Vale, so it was able to acquire large amounts of money. They had put this money into making the dorms more comfortable, and with this enforced a policy that you would have the same dorm for the entire time you were enrolled. The dorms were cozy, Weiss thought. Most of them contained a bedroom, bathroom and another small room, although some were bigger or smaller depending on their location.

Weiss believed that it would fit her and her roommate's needs, but also brought up a concern she had.

She wasn't sure about Ruby yet, and she hoped that she would turn out to be someone Weiss could easily get along with. If not, then it would be a long few years she would have to endure.

Side Note- One of my favorite authors just started writing one of his stories again and you should check it out. It was what got me into fan fiction and it deserves to be read. It's not the greatest but it's pretty good. It is Operation Family Bonds by xXlyra16Xx. (It is the second part of a story so read that first) Thanks, tackyjarl
