Welcome to chapter 1 of my new story, it's been a while. This chapter is mainly to set the ground work and to see if anyone will actually enjoy this story since if nobody likes it there is no point to continue. So without further ado enjoy and please tell me what you think.
The crimson colored forest of Forever Fall is where team RWBY found themselves training today. The Grimm of course were no match for their combined might but that didn't stop them from practicing, even making a competition of who could get the most kills.
Yang was in the lead followed by Ruby, then Weiss, then Blake.
"You can do better than that" Yang teased her sister as she put down another Beowolf.
Ruby took a slice at another Beowolf but she kill was taken by Yang shooting it dead. Weiss went after the ones Yang wasn't and Blake made sure none got away.
"Stop stealing my kills!" Ruby yelled with pure frustration
The competition continued until the girls decided to call it a day and headed back, Ruby barely having taken the lead.
"That was so cheating" Yang declared
"Was not!" Ruby fought
"We did agree no semblance" Blake commented, helping her partner
"A huntress has to adapt to the situation" Weiss helped her partner
Their squabble was interrupted by their scrolls simultaneous ringing, signaling a new message. The message was from Professor Ozpin, asking Team RWBY to come to his office.
"Wonder what that's about" Yang commented
"Only one way to find out" Blake responded
"Alright, Team RWBY let's move out!" Ruby excitedly declared
It took about fifteen minutes for the team to get back onto the campus of Beacon and into the elevator leading up to Ozpin's office. As they neared the top Blake could overhear a conversation.
"I just don't think I can do this" a unknown voice said
"I think you'll be amazed with how much you can polish your abilities with a little guidance" that was Professor Ozpin's voice
Blake couldn't hear anymore before the elevator door opened. Behind his desk sat Professor Ozpin and next to him was a girl.
The girl had a slightly dark complexion and wore a gold beanie on top of short purple hair, other than that she wore purple jeans and a gold sweater. Her most notable features were her eyes, one red, one yellow as well as her missing arm which left a hollow sleeve.
The girls of RWBY stepped out of the elevator and into Ozpin's office.
"You called for us, sir?" Weiss asked
"Yes, thank you for coming" Ozpin started "I have a….special assignment for you four"
"Special?" Ruby got excited
"This should be good" Yang smirked
Ozpin turned his head to the girl at his side. Softly he said "Go on, introduce yourself"
"I'm...Reverb" the girl quietly said, not making eye contact
"I'd like you to train Reverb. In a month I'd like her to pass the entrance exam." was all Ozpin said before the room went silent
The room was silent for half a minute due to the shock of the statement, the first person to speak was Reverb.
"You can't be serious" Reverb said, moving to cross her arms but instead her left arm fell to her side
"I assure you, I am quite serious" Ozpin retorted, turning to look at Reverb
Trying to sound as impressive as possible Ruby requested "Might we have a recess to reconvene?"
With an amused smirk, Ozpin nodded.
The girls of RWBY turned around and started discussing, not knowing Reverb could hear them.
"Guys what are we gonna do?" Ruby asked her team
Coldly, Weiss stated "I don't see how this benefits us"
"I dunno" Yang said while looking at Reverb out of the corner of her eye "This could be fun"
"I'm for it" Blake said which surprised her teammates
"That's the spirit" Yang smirked
During her time with the White Fang, Blake had seen many new recruits with that same look Reverb had on her face. Scared, alone, nowhere else to turn.
"You of all people?" Weiss asked in disbelief
With a soft smile Blake said "I have a good feeling"
"Well if Yang and Blake want to do this I say we at least give it a try" Ruby said despite how nervous she was
Weiss wasn't happy with the decision but accepted it as the team turned around
"We are willing to try training her"
Ozpin smiled at the choice of the team.
"Reverb" she said slightly angry.
Ruby let out a "eep!" and his behind her partner.
Ozpin turned to Reverb and handed her several thousand lien.
"Why don't you five go and get Reverb the proper equipment" he suggested
Blake found it odd Ozpin called Reverb by her first name.
Reverb took the cards, put them in her front right pocket and headed towards the elevator. She held the door open with her left leg and asked "You coming?" looking at the stunned girls
The four girls hurried into the elevator after Reverb who pulled back her leg while Yang hit the button for the ground floor.
