Hi, if you don't know who I am, then you've come to the right place. My name is Kendall Henderson and I will be telling you all a tale of the most bizarre yet greatest adventure I've ever had.
So, beginning from the very start, it was Monday morning as the Sun rose on the horizon. It's beautiful bright ray shone upon those who were asleep that included me and my family. A ray of the Sun phased through my bedroom window and forced me to wake up due to its brightness. I really wanted to stay in bed longer, but it was a school day, so how could I argue?
"Alright, alright!" I tiredly and jokingly argued with the Sun. "Just say something next time." A yawn escaped from my mouth as I stretched my arms to full length and placed my soles on the bedroom floor. My physical appearance was just normal like every other human with my hair being black and I was still in my red pj's. Next, I went inside the bathroom to shower, picked whatever I was gonna wear to school (a blue shirt with black jeans and red sneakers), and went downstairs to eat breakfast. I reached the kitchen area and saw my mom was already preparing the food while my two elder sisters, ages 16 and 18, were watching the news on television. My dad wasn't around 'cause he got a call yesterday and his boss stated that he needed to go to work early in the morning. He didn't ask questions, though he wished he had knew what the reason was.
Anyway, after I was done with breakfast, mom drove me to school, gave me a kiss on the forehead, and bid me farewell. As I entered, not much had changed to the inside since last year which is something not really worth complaining about. Once a certain bell rung, it was time for science class with our good teacher, Mr. Beg Budhey. Or secretly, as some students call him with his back turned, Big Booty. I'd normally laugh at funny nicknames, but I better not laugh with his ears within close range of my voice. While in the science lab with him explaining about science and all that, my blonde lab partner, Henry Sullivan, leaned in closer to whisper without getting caught.
"So, ya got the game?" He whispered to me.
"What game?" I asked while playing dumb.
"Y'know, the-" Then, as I was attempting to stifle a laugh, he demonstrated what looked like punching moves, chopping, and especially, using his middle finger as a foot to "kick" his other hand. "-game!" In case you don't know, this game is created by Bandai Namco and Cero (whatever company that is) and is about armored heroes who protect the innocent and defeat powerful villains that you'd see in children's drawings.
"Oh, you mean that game! Why didn't you just say so?" He crossed his arms of irritation and pouted. Hey, might as well make fun of the situation, right?
"You're a troll." All of that annoyance was replaced by snickering that we exchanged. Soon, the school bell rung once again, ending the school day at 2 o'clock. I was really glad the day was over because then, I could return home and continue doing...whatever it is I do everyday.
While on the road, my mom looked at her rear view mirror and asked me, "So, how's school today, honey?"
And I replied with the very same answer almost every time, "Oh, just the same old, same old. Nothing special." Even with that answer let out, I could still sense that mom was waiting for another answer. If anything strange or special had happened there. Anything apart from the usual. "Mom, I understand that you try to find excitement in my school life, but seriously though. Let go." My voice became more stern which I wished I didn't use, but it had to be said and done. My mom sighed of defeat as she knew that not all exciting things happen in other people's lives and that she should make some in her own respective life.
"I guess you're right." Her sad face brought me back images of other times she was disappointed by something. But hey, what would you do if one of your parents relies on you to entice them with something from your life everyday? Yeah, that's what I thought.
We arrived home at approximately 7 minutes from where I was in school. After unlocking the door, my mother went straight into her room to manage some work while the same went for me as I went inside my room and slumped on a black rolling chair. I looked to my front where my laptop was and typed in a few letters, spelling out "Youtube" before hitting the Search button. The page began loading not too long and then, I started typing "Kamen Rider: Battride War Genesis DLC" but with more smaller letters and pressed Search again. Another page appeared and showed me several videos revolving around gameplays for the DLC characters. I haven't unlocked these said characters in the game yet because you need a Japanese account to actually download this stuff and there's NO WAY I'm gonna make up some fake street in Japan just so I could unlock three fictional characters in a video game! I'll stick to my discipline and the whole world should stick to their's too!
"Huh?" But, what I didn't expect was a random video popping up on my screen without knowledge of its arrival. "What the hell is this?" The title at the top merely said "Video" which gave me a suspicion of it being from an internet troll or not. I dragged my cursor around the screen and clicked everywhere except for the video, but ended up with failure and I couldn't make it go away. A heavy sigh, I performed. "Are you serious right now?" I thought of other solutions, but I was too tired to do any of them, so my only option was to click the video and let it play. "Fine. Whatever you say, oh mighty (possible) internet troll!" I clicked the video with the touchpad and began the video. Only, what I got out of it was a black screen with the red line thingy going from 0:00 to 0:06. Yep, definitely a troll video.
...Then again, maybe not.
"AAAAAHHHHHH!" I screamed because of a sudden white flash from the video that not only blinded but somehow managed to throw me towards the wall behind me too! Okay, I've experienced and/or seen things very weird before, but this goes far beyond that! My back colliding with the solid concrete wall resulted in me losing consciousness and landed on my bed after. Even if I landed on a soft surface, the pain was still taking over my body and made me want to scream. But for some reason, all I could do was lie there, motionless and hope for someone to help me. I wasn't ready to give in, but the pain was too much...it hurt real bad...and I may have been dead, for all I know...
As I was ready to meet my demise, two words came into my thoughts with a pitiful voice...
'Please,...help...'
Darkness...
That's all what I could ever see...and when there came darkness...there was also pain...coursing through my every vein, every vessel, every...everything...
It felt like centuries after I was thrown and passed out...centuries of waiting...and waiting...and waiting...until finally-
After what felt like an oblivion, my strength was suddenly gathering itself which then created enough strength for my finger to flinch slightly. This notified that I was alive, but how much life was left within me? I needed to get up, so with the help of my remaining will power, I brought in my fingers to make a fist, reassuring myself and used that fist to pull my arm up. Even if it was weak at the moment, it was my only hope of waking up from this eternal nightmare. "Ugh." A groan escaped my mouth when my fist slowly but successfully raised my arm, therefore giving more strength to my other hand as well and helped it push myself up from the cold hard ground. The only limbs I had to lift were my legs and feet and began lifting them up as well, but abruptly fell back down on the first try.
'Come on, you can do this...' He hoped for the best from his legs and tried it the second time. This time, he made sure to cancel out the throbbing pain in his back and put more force into it. After another feeling of eternity, my toes eventually touched the ground, letting the rest of my feet touch it and helped me stand up. I was thankful to God for letting me stand up, but still couldn't quite see anything. That's when I realized my eyes were still asleep. My instincts ordered them to open and with enough energy left, they slowly spread until they both shot open. Finally, I felt like it took forever for me to wake up from my coma, but still couldn't shake off the pain in my back. So, I placed both my palms on my backside and secretly prayed that it won't end like last time.
'Here's to hoping this doesn't end up like last time.' And with a strong push, I could hear my backbone cracking and it felt even more painful than previously. I probably shouldn't have done that, but at least, a fixed back is better than a broken one. "OH, GOD!" I half-regret saying that.
With a full 10 to 15 minutes of suffering with a fixed-back, my attention was drawn to his surroundings; I was currently in a dark alleyway in the middle of the night (or what seemed like the middle of the night to me) and looked above me to see something that made my eyes widened like saucers; the moon...was cracked. Well, actually, not so much cracked, but more like it had some of its pieces missing, making a crescent shape. Okay, now THAT is messed up! I thought the moon was supposed to be all round, not crescent shaped and missing a lot of bits. Then again, I'll admit that's not the oddest thing I've seen in my whole life. There was that one time when-
"Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a Dust shop open this late?"
Without knowing why, I heard a voice, one of a male adult, to be specific. "Huh?" It's strange. I specified the voice to be coming from a nearby building inside, but I didn't know how I heard it from this position or how it wasn't muffled. Maybe I'm only hearing things, but I couldn't be too sure. So, I started exiting from my previous spot and I found myself, looking at a small building from the west side. I was guessing the voice come from over here, but I knew that if this person is considered hostile or completely hostile, I am OUT. I took a few cautious steps forward as I was approaching the front of the building. It looked like a normal building to me, but I was mostly bewildered from the sign that said "From Dust Till Dawn". "Huh, I always thought it was 'from dusk till dawn', but I guess the owner decided to get crafty with the name. After all, I-". I had no clue of how much trouble I was in when I saw one of the few men dressed in black coats spotted me and informed his comrades. Way to go, dumbass. The one time you didn't want to draw unwanted attention to yourself and you get this. Perfect, just perfect!
"Hey, I think there's someone out there." I heard his voice which was not the same voice from before, but that man in the white coat may have my answer... As they continuously looked at me with their red shades, the presumed leader turned his back to see me just standing there helplessly. I gulped a little at the deadly look in his eye, but gained enough courage to analyze him; he was wearing white clothing with black gloves, a black fedora with a single red stripe, and had red hair. For all I could guess, he's probably not the best to negotiate with. He then revealed a mischievous and toothy smile, sending minor chills to spine and made my brain calculate possible actions he may perform next.
"Take care of him." His voice matched my theory, but I wasn't prepared when those bodyguard-looking guys came out from the shop and three of them unsheathed their red sword-like weapons. Two more pulled out their guns and made sure they had full ammo before pointing at me. I was so unarmed and my lack of fighting experience made the situation even worse. How was I supposed to defend myself against these guys? I have no weapons, I have no powers, I don't even have that much strength to knock someone out, and I especially don't possess any athletic attributes whatsoever. So, yeah. This was gonna end bad for me.
"Listen, kid. Either you leave..." One of the goons stated as he pointed the tip of his blade at me. "...or mess with us and die." Another gulped went through my throat and my brain immediately told me to leave. But, another part of me wanted to stay and fight to protect that middle-aged man's shop. I argued with myself a little in my thoughts, but I chose to stay and fight which I would facepalm at right now if there weren't four or five goons standing in front of me.
"Go on. I'd like to see you try." That cocky statement lead the sword-wielding goons to charge at me. I got myself into a fighting stance and amazingly dodged out of the way when a goon tried to slash me with his blade. In slow motion, I was able to grab him by the back and swung him about 4 times with surprising strength before releasing him into his comrades. He crashed into them which gave me enough time to examine myself; a mysterious red aura-like mist was flowing through my body, like it was my strength, but better. "Woah..." This only lasted 9 seconds before the goons got back up and charged again. But this time, I was ready. I punched one goon in the gut before he got a chance to swing at me, followed by another punch and a finishing uppercut. While I was in mid-air, I thought of an idea and used gravity to pull me down and swung my foot down onto another one's head. His body bounced off the ground, so to make sure, I spin kicked him into a wall, knocking him consciousness. Now, he feels what I felt like a few minutes ago. There was still one more sword-wielder as he swung his sword like the first one did which was a big mistake on my part. I dodged again, this time using the momentum from my dodge to strike my elbow to his back. He turned around to attack again, but that gave me a chance to grab him by the shoulders and delivered three swift knee kicks to the stomach before performing a spin kick again, sending him flying into a different brick/concrete wall.
"Well, that takes care of that-" As I dusted off my hands, everything went back to slow motion as a bullet sped its way towards my hand but barely hit and instead, went through the opening between my thumb and index finger. I backed away in shock as I turned my attention to the gunners who I almost forgot. Almost. "Oh, right. You guys." Since I don't have a ranged weapon of any kind, I decided to just run and hit. I ran forward to one of the two remaining goons while dodging bullets with much ease, even to my surprise, and jumped in the air, performing a front flip as I did. But, as I did that, my hands were close enough to grab the man by his shoulders and brought him down into the ground at the time I landed safely on my feet. I remembered about the second one and swung the body into his partner, making them both crash forwards.
However, these guys were still conscious enough to stand up, still willing to defeat me. I have to admit, these guys were pretty durable for ordinary goons. I respect that. As I readied myself one more time, I felt a powerful surge flowing through my body and to be honest, it kinda felt like pins and needles, only...multiply that with 5. I noticed both of them had shocked looks and gaped jaws as I looked down onto my feet; they were sparking. No, they were literally sparking with electricity. At first, I was silently freaking out, but that's when it hit me. "Oh, I remember this..." I saw them back up in a foolish attempt to scatter and leave, but I wouldn't allow such a thing. So without hesitating, I charged up my attack, making more power flow in me before I sprinted towards the remaining two who were still too shocked to move and performed a full front flip before aiming both of my feet towards the two men. I wasn't sure if one foot was enough to stop them, so why not go with two? The results of this was the goons getting knocked back due to the sheer force of my double-footed kick, but strangely only went into a comatose. I was expecting more of a "KABOOM", but on the bright side, at least I won't be called a murderer for killing two people, even if they were evil.
That fight took a lot of energy out of me as my panting struggled to regain my breath and after all of that, the previous mist had dissipated. "Okay, NOW that takes care of that."
"I don't believe so."
As my breath had now been regained, I turned my back to see the boss himself, holding a cigarette in his mouth as he saw all of his fallen men, lying on the ground and crushed into walls. Now that he's seen my abilities, he looked like he regretted underestimating me, or at least, I hoped so.
"Oh, right. The boss man." I said while getting into another battle-ready pose. However, he merely laughed at my action and pulled his cigar out of his mouth.
"Well, young lad, I must say it has been such an eventful evening..." Then, he dropped the small roll of tobacco on the floor and squished half of it with his red cane. "...and as much as I would love to stick around..." He pointed his cane at me when its end flipped ope what appeared to be a day scope, y'know, the ones that sniper rifles are equipped with. "...I'm afraid this is where we part ways." Without warning, it shot out a flare-like projectile towards me that got me to back-flip out of the way and let it miss. After I landed, I looked ahead of me and found the man nowhere to be seen. That was until I spotted the leader, Making a break for it and climbed up a nearby ladder up to a rooftop. Suddenly, I saw the shop owner but also a girl who randomly showed up from nowhere. She was wearing a black dress with a skirt, long black boots, and a long red cape, included with a hood. Her facial appearance had red hair, only more red, with a bit of black, and her eyes...how do I explain this? Her eyes were...silver. Very uncommon for a human, but we all have weird and odd traits, so I only ignored and the owner one simple question.
"You okay if I go after him?" We both asked simultaneously.
"Uh huh." He approved for us to chase after him. Before we did, however,...
"Jinx!"
The two of us headed for the building and I was about to grab the first rung of the ladder, "Hang on!" when that girl grabbed my hand before using her large red scythe (I didn't even notice until now) to shoot us up to the rooftop. Wow, that scythe is really freaking handy! Just as the male red head reached the top, the other red head and I arrived just in time as our feet landed on higher ground. I stumbled before regaining balance and saw the fedora guy just standing there with his back turned from us. "Hey!" She caught his attention as he stopped in his tracks.
"Persistent..." He commented on both of us. I noticed that she readied her giant weapon in case he decided to attack, but it's times like these I wished she watched a lot of superhero/secret agent movies. And as I predicted, his getaway ride was here, only it wasn't a car, but rather, an airship. The sounds of an engine and turbines only made it more obvious, but was messing with my hearing a little. Soon, a spotlight was brought upon me and the girl, giving the bad guy enough time to get on board the ride. As he turned to us, he pulled out a red crystalline-object, "End of the line, Red and whoever you are!" and tossed it, therefore making it land in front of us. Both of us were confused before he aimed his cane-gun at the crystal and fired another shot from it. As it got nearer, I knew this would go out with a "BOOM" which it technically did. "Woah-ho-ho-ho!" However, his celebrating didn't last very long as he saw what really happened; me and the red girl blocked ourselves, hoping that the crystal wouldn't explode. But suddenly, another mysterious figure protected us with some sort of magical purple seal-like shield it cast.
Okay, let me recap what's happened in these last few moments: I woke up in alleyway with a sore back, had to fight 4 or 5 goons using whatever type of power I acquired just now, approached their leader who soon escaped, met a girl who apparently carries around a giant scythe, and finally we were saved by some mysterious wizard who shielded us before we got blown to bits. I never honestly expected for all of this to happen, but it happened. So, there's no turning back.
Our vision was eventually cleared of the smoke to see our savior; it was another female, though she looked much older and she was a blonde, had a bun on her hair, wore a strangely-designed cape with the outside being black and inside being purple, and an outfit of what teachers would normally wear to school. I know this such an old joke, but I just gotta do it. SHE'S A WITCH! Whew! Finally got that outta my system. Her shield slowly disappeared and we were able to examine her more clearly. Oh, and she was also holding a wand. Ruby was amazed while I was only straight up flabbergasted and what made us even more of those was when she adjusted her glasses before she waved her wand like a wizard, sending streaks of purple light towards the airborne vehicle. Every last one of them made direct with it, causing it to falter and lose flight.
I nearly chuckled at the sight of the villain, also having trouble balancing. I'm sorry, but that's just too funny to not laugh at! Even if they couldn't see it, my vision enhanced all of the sudden, surprising me even further. But, it helped in someway because I could see the red head stumbling into where the cockpit was and I was able to hear him too.
"We got a Huntress!" He yelled to whoever was flying the airship. After that, I saw him take control of the airship while the former pilot was...wherever he/she was. Once he did, the thrusters on the ship turn sideways as if it was trying to make escape. Not on the witch's watch! She was surprised by this, but kept focused before her entire form glowed a little bit of purple and shot a light of bright purple that wasn't aimed for the ship which I was puzzled at first. But then, that light instantly became a mini thunderstorm right above the airship. I was still able to hear him over the sound of thunder and lightning. "The hell...?" I thought the storm was alone gonna deal with him, but as of now, she waved her wand down this time, creating shards of sharp crystal projectiles and making them rain upon the vessel. It took an amount of substantial damage, but it wasn't over yet.
Yet another female revealed herself from the airship. Seriously, what is up with the amount of girls and women today!? Because of one dark side of the inside, only her bottom was revealed, she wore high heels, and also a kind of red dress. The caped witch winced her eyes of...some emotion I can't really describe of as the red-dressed woman hand flickered a flash of red light before her dress was glowing like fire. Next thing we saw, she waved her hands a tad bit before firing a fiery shot at us and we'd have been toast if it weren't for the savior's second shield which absorbed the blast and what's left behind was a few drops of magma. What the fire sorceress did next was bringing her hand up which activated a circle-like surface below the witch's feet and erupted like a miniature volcano. Luckily, her skill set was as advanced as Master Splinter's and jumped before the fire even reached her, landing with her palm and flipped right side up afterwards. She then thought of something and waved her wand around which formed the pieces of the roof into the shape of an arrow and shot it straight towards the sorceress. Unfortunately, the evil red needed only three blasts of fire to destroy the entire thing, but it was unexpected that the pieces reformed and were really aiming for the cockpit where the leader was.
He took defensive maneuvers and made the airship tilt to the left which made the pieces ricocheted of the roof and disassemble. But once again, the blonde witch waved her wand once more and separated the pieces into three snake-like constructs that flew around the airship like water snakes swimming in, well, water. But soon, I could spot the sorceress preparing another attack that made a few rings surround her body before releasing a shockwave-like attack which fried all of the pieces, at last. We all stared at the ashes of the rooftop pieces and then, back at the airship and sorceress. Ruby looked at the witch and at me before somehow converting her giant Anime scythe into a giant gun-looking weapon. As she loaded a round into her newly converted ranged weapon, she fired a few shots at the airship, making the blonde look at her and then, at the airship with a stern and serious face, knowing it will have little chances of success. I already hypothesized the chances as the woman in red easily blocked the shots with her hand and summoned four or five circular seals below our feet. I was especially terrified at the possible outcome that could happen.
Lucky for us (and by "we", I mean Red and me), the witch pushed us out of the way with her "magic" with herself dodging the attack too. As the pieces barely missed us, me, Red, and the blonde witch fortunately got outta there, but also saw the airship door closing while the airship itself readied its thrusters and flew off into the distance. I couldn't believe those bastards got away...if they ever show their faces here again...
"You're a Huntress!"
My moment was rudely interrupted by the red head who said it out loud towards the "Huntress". At least, I'll have an alternate word to call her by instead of "witch" and other stuff.
"Can I get you autograph?"
Her face turned that of a scowl, an infuriated one, that is. The only words that came out of her mouth in a very stern matter was, "You two are coming with me." Seeing as how the girl looked both shocked and disappointed, I leaned in closer to her to tell here:
"I'm guessing that's a 'No'."
Well, this is just great. One moment, we were battling two bad guys in an airship, the next moment, me and the red head were being punished for saving AN ELDERLY SHOP OWNER! Come on, just because we got in the way doesn't mean we deserved to be punished! This is total nonsense! I want to see a lawyer!
Well, might as well tell the rest of the story, then. As a single ceiling lamp shone light upon our very faces, the Huntress began walking around the table we sat behind with two chairs, angry because we "put ourselves and others in danger".
"They started it!" She objected. Since I was on her side, I attempted something like this, as well.
"Yeah, just let us go, alright!?" Okay, now part of really regrets saying that in front of a probable authority figure, but I just couldn't stand for this. We were innocent!
"As much as I would love to do that, young man, I suggest a very similar yet punished method." Similar yet punished? That doesn't sound good. Well, actually, half-good. "If it were up to me, you'd be sent home..." She paused as she looks more into her futuristic tablet-looking device. "...with a pat on the back..." Red smiled happily at this method. She would be released without getting injured! But, we all know that's not the only thing.
"And a slap on the wrist." She said firmly as she turned her head and almost slap the red head's wrist with her back whip-like stick, making her shriek I surprise. Even I flinched a little at her action. This was only the 6th time an authority figure almost slaps me on the wrist and trust me, what I've been through, you do NOT want to experience it. "But...there is someone here who would like to meet you two..." We were surprised when her voice cooled down from her anger so quickly. Let me guess, it's gonna be Dumbledore, isn't it?
As she walked away to make clear a path to the door in front of us, came a man with gray hair, black and green clothing, and a pair of spectacles, as well. Well, it's not Dumbledore, but at least, it's close. While he approached, he also had a plate of cookies in his hand along with a mug of coffee. That wasn't the only surprise he had...
"Ruby Rose..." He mentioned in a calm tone which made the girl, now named Ruby, had a curious face about him too. The man then leaned in closer to us and spoke again, "You..." I could tell he was starring into Ruby's eyes, probably because they were silver. But, it's only a wild guess. "...have silver eyes." Called it!
"Um..." Ruby was getting nervous, but mostly uncomfortable on how he knew some much of her, I could tell. I was always good at reading other people's emotions and faces with simply one look. One time, I even helped a therapist help one of his patients by telling her thoughts and feelings during her recent situation. He turned away from her and was now facing me. I got ready in case he needed to ask any type of question.
"And may I ask who you might be?" Right, all I needed to do was tell him my name which was a lot less stressful than I anticipated, thank heavens for that.
"Um,...K-Kendall...Kendall Henderson." All the man did was "Hm-ed" in understatement. I'm glad for that.
"Kendall..." He repeated my first name from my answer as he cupped his chin to think for a moment. As he did, the woman showed us a video on her tablet device of me, kicking those goons asses. And I felt awesome! "So! Where did you learn to do this?"
"Um...wha?" I was too nervous to let out one lone word, mainly because I worried that he might no believe me.
"Go on. Take your time to collect your words. I will believe in anything you have to say." Well, since he's so much nicer than that witch, (Ahem!), sorry, "Huntress", I guess I got nothing to lose. With a calming breath to cool down, I spoke.
"W-Well, to be honest, this is the first time I've fought like this." They were all looking at me with slight disbelief, including Ruby. I was telling the truth, but no one seemed to believe me. Can't blame them, though... Until the "Professor" decided to break the thick wall of ice in time.
"Hm, I see..." Once he was satisfied, from the look of things, he returned his attention back at Ruby who was still nervous, but remained calm nonetheless. "And you. Do you know how to fight? And if so, where did you learn to do it?"
"S-Signal Academy." Her voice became more calm as ever and started to trust this man. As for me, I was still keeping my eye on the Huntress.
"They taught you to use one of the most dangerous weapons ever designed?"
"Well, one teacher in particular."
"I see..." He stopped as he placed the plate of cookies onto the table. Ruby looked down on the treats, then back at the two authorities, reassuring that they wouldn't mind and grabbed a cookie, and scarfed it down in one bite. I thought that was very impressive before I reached my hand out to grab one, however, Ruby started eating the cookies in an instant, one by one. Man, she's a beast for cookies.
'Well, I guess I'm not that hungry anyway. After all, I had breakfast back home and lunch at school. So, I won't risk anything to make people calling me a pig.' But, they just looked so good... My thoughts were interrupted once again by the Professor.
"It's just that I've only seen one other scythe-wielder of that skill before. A dusty, old crow."
"Mmmm! Thash muh unkul kru!" She noticed her mouth was full as she swallowed a mouthful of self-grinded cookie mush through her throat and into her stomach. She wiped her mouth before continuing to explain. "Sorry, that's my Uncle Qrow! He's a teacher at Signal! I was complete garbage before he took me under his wing. And now I'm all like - Hooowaaah! Watchaaaaa!" I attempted my best to hold a laugh from the last part of her explanation, using my hand to help me contain my laughter. The Huntress noticed my reaction and glared at me with a firm face. Some people just don't have a sense of humor, do they? I cleared my throat to stop my giggling and paid full attention this time.
"So, I've noticed." He put his coffee mug on the table before adding more to the topic. "And what is an adorable girl such as yourself doing at a school to train warriors?"
"Well,...I want to become a Huntress." The Professor saw the inspiration and potential had in herself, as well as the desire to become a warrior who protects the innocent, slays monsters, and reaching her full potential.
"You want to slay monsters?"
"Yeah! I only have two more years of training at Signal! And then, I'm going to apply to Beacon! You see, my older sister's starting there this year, and she's trying to become a Huntress, and I'm trying to become a Huntress 'cause I wanna help. My parents always taught to help others, so I thought, 'Hey, I might as well make a career out of it!'. I mean the police are alright, but Huntsmen and Huntresses are just so much more romantic and exciting and really, gah, you know!" Yeesh, with that much enthusiasm, you could accidentally stumble upon a forest full of monsters through blind bad luck. The two had to agree; her enthusiasm is very interesting, but I saw the Huntress looking at her like that and knew that she was unsure to where this situation was going. But, I just went along with and didn't think much about it.
"Do you know who I am?" The man asked for his recognition.
"You're Professor Ozpin. You're the headmaster of Becaon." Must...not...make...a...Wizard Of Oz...JOKE!
"Hello." He decided to joke around a bit.
"Nice to meet you."
"You want to come to my school?" Yep, I knew this was going to happen.
"More than anything." Ozpin looked back at the Huntress who only "Hmp-ed" at her request.
"Well, okay." Before ending their conversation, the Professor looked back at me with the same question.
"And what about you?" All eyes darted towards my direction which made me think more of my possible choices. As far as I know, I have two choices:
A) I could join this academy of their's and learn to fight monsters and save mankind.
B) I could just deny their offer and-
Nope, screw it! I'm going with A!
"Well, I really don't have anywhere else to go frankly, so I guess I'll just join the academy then." A proud smile was revealed from Ozpin as he was glad that he could help out another soul in need.
"I'm glad to hear."
Ruby and I smiled at each other as we both were getting transferred to Beacon Academy! Even if I couldn't exactly predict what would happen to me in the future, the important thing is I keep moving forward and always stay courageous. Plus, I gained a new friend! And there are probably tons of other friends I could gain along the way. But, one question still remains:
What was that aura surrounding me? And why does it remind me of someone in a fictional world?
Author's Note:
So, my first story has begun! Sorry the beginning part was short, but I felt kinda lazy at the moment. Not a lot more to say, so I guess I'll just you guys later! Peace!
