Green Prologue
Richard Blyce Egron was standing on the resort's balcony watching the ocean waves hit the shoreline. His brown hoodie was waving in the wind as the ocean breeze washed over him, cooling his whole self. Nametaker, his weapon of choice, was balanced next to him, leaning on the balcony railing. The ocean dew made his brown hair glow and sparkle, making it look like his hair was embedded with jewels. Richards red eyes glowed and stood out in the blue-green ocean water. As he looked over the deep never-ending body of water, something moved behind him.
"You must be Richard Blyce Egron. Hello." A mysterious man said behind him.
Richard then turned to look behind him to see a man that was probably in his mid to late forties. The man was dressed in green and had grey hair, and was holding a coffee mug in one hand, and a cane in the other.
Richard recognized him immediately. "Ah hello, Professor Ozpin. What are you doing here on this fine evening? I suppose that since you know who I am, and I know who you are, that this has to do with me?" Richard asked the professor.
"Yes, it does. I wish to ask a few questions, if you please." Ozpin responded.
"Of course! Ask away!" Richard responded. "What do you wish to know?"
Ozpin then took a sip from his mug. "Have you recieved combat training or have attended any combat school in your past, young man?" Ozpin asked him.
"Yes, sir. Enrolled to and assigned to EchoAcademy for 3 years, and graduated top of the class!" He said, grinning. "Made ol' Nametaker here during the first few months!" Richard then rubbed his Warhammer/Rocket launcher at that moment.
"Are you a skilled user of your weapon, Mr. Egron?" Ozpin asked again. "It is of utmost importance that you answer this."
"Of course I am! I had acquired a fatality score of 281 in my time at Echo, sir!" Richard said, proud and smiling.
"So I see…" Ozpin said, taking another sip. "Have you heard of the academy I run, young man? Are you familiar with Beacon?"
"Of course! Everyone envies those who get accepted into BeaconAcademy. The best of the best are only allowed, they say… wait a minute, does this mean that…..?" Richard said, trailing off. He was finally piecing together the chance meeting and the questions that he was asked.
"Yes, young man. You're correct. I am offering you a place in my academy. Shall you accept this proposition?" Ozpin clarified, revealing the reason why he came.
"Of course! I just need time to pack." Richard then exclaimed. "Thank you, sir, for offering me this position. It is a great honor to be asked in person by the great headmaster himself."
Ozpin nodded and started to walk away. "The airships arrive in a few months time. I suspect that is enough time to get ready?"
Ozpin then left the balcony and Richard was once again alone to watch the ocean. Richard was never as happy as he was in that moment in his entire life.
Wait till the others hear about this! He thought to himself.
And at that moment, he thought that the sunrise on the waves never seemed so bright as it was for him that day.
