Beacon. The prestigious academy where people are trained to be Hunters and Huntresses. My brother Tenzo and I have have been accepted into this academy and today is the day we arrive. We have arrived from the Land of Fire, more specifically Konohagakure, at the request of our father. Father thought it best that we learn the techniques of the Hunters from Vale so we may teach new generations of our clan in their ways. Our clan, the Uchiha Clan, has been doing extremely well recuperating after the near extinction at the hands of Itachi Uchiha, and thanks to Sasuke Uchiha we have been restored to our former glory after a mere six generations.

"Six? Kageki its been more like ten." Tenzo said, looking over my shoulder at my journal.

"Six sounds better than ten. Our clan suffered a huge loss that day and it took forever to get back to its former glory. Six just seems quicker and better than ten."

Tenzo blinked a few times. "Are you stupid?"

I glared at him, "You know I graduated top of my class at the academy right? Don't question my intelligence and I won't question your competence."

Tenzo rolled his eyes, "Chill little brother. Why are you even writing in that anyway?"

I thought for a moment. "Because I can. Someone has to write down our clan's history."

"Kageki, we already know it's history."

"Then why are there still rumors as to why we almost went extinct?"

"Because people are idiots."

I sighed and put my journal away. We've been on the airship for a while now and Beacon has finally come into view. We could see the academy and all it's supposed glory as well as get an aerial view of the city, and I'm not gonna lie, it was almost as good as the view of Konoha from atop the Hokage Monument. Our view was interrupted when a blonde guy staggered past us, clearly suffering from some kind of motion sickness. I saw him stagger around the ship, passing a few people, and two in particular caught my eye. Two girls stood about ten meters from us, one with long golden hair, the other with short, black and red hair. I debated with myself on whether or not I should go talk to them when a news story popped up talking about a robbery last night. Some weird looking guy who was smiling in his mugshot appeared, then they switched to a story about a protest about some people.

"Tenzo, are you watching the news too?" I asked him.

"Yep, apparently they have people here called faunus who, from what I gather, are like a mix of human and some kind of animal."

I looked back at the screen when they mentioned how the protest turned violent due to a group known as The White Fang. Tenzo scoffed.

"These White Fang people wouldn't stand a chance against the Akatsuki."

"Tenzo, you are aware that most of the former members of the Akatsuki are not only dead, but also that each one could almost destroy an entire village, alone. Hell, Nagato DID destroy Konoha alone. It took us years to completely fix it. And Itachi Uchiha was one of the strongest living Uchiha at the time, the same Uchiha who almost brought our clan to extinction. There was also Obito, Deidara, Hidan, Kisame, Kakuzu-"

"I get it Kageki, don't compare our shinobi with these people."

"You sure? I can bring up the Fourth Shinobi World War if you need more proof."

Tenzo glared at me and was about to retort when the news screen disappeared and was replaced by a hologram of another blonde woman. She introduced herself as Glynda Goodwitch, and told us about Beacon a little bit, and also informed us that our luggage would be transferred to a locker upon our arrival. When we finally disembarked i opted to keep my katana blade with me. Tenzo disappeared on me so I wandered the grounds for a bit. I heard an explosion in the distance but thought nothing of it. I found my way to the opening ceremonies and saw Tenzo joking around with random women. Is it going to be like that here too? I thought to myself. All the time in the village Tenzo and I would have girls fawning over us purely because we're Uchiha. I always hated it and tried my best to ignore them all but that only made things worse. I was looking forward to finally having some peace since no one here knew of the Uchiha, but it seems that it's going to be the same. Well, at least for Tenzo it is. Tenzo did always love the attention, although it made him slightly arrogant. The headmaster appeared and made his announcements, and afterward it was announced that we would all be sleeping in this hall tonight. I couldn't hold back my sigh of annoyance. I looked over at Tenzo and I saw him grinning like an idiot. He leaned over to one of the girls he had around him, whispered something to her, and she giggled and took her friends away. After that he turned, saw me, and walked over.

"You saw that?" He asked me.

"How could I not? You always seem to have your own little fan-club."

"Hey, you did too. Not my fault you're such a loner."

I rolled my eyes. "So how many of those girls did you promise to sleep with?"

He put his hand over his heart in mock hurt, "Ouch, that hurts man. Actually, I asked them if they could leave me alone for the night so I can spend some time with my little brother."

I narrowed my eyes. "And the truth is?"

"You think I'm lying?"

"Yes."

"Jeez, have some faith Kageki."

Tenzo pulled a small book out of his pocket and tossed it to me. When I caught it I turned it over and looked at the cover. It was one of my brother's Icha Icha novels, the ones that used to be written by the Toad Sage Jiraiya. After his death a mysterious writer continued the series until it's completion. Tenzo somehow got his hands on the whole set and he's been reading it constantly. I'm amazed he still has them considering he isn't old enough to buy them himself.

"Why are you giving me this book? You know I'm not old enough for this."

Tenzo grinned. "Oh don't worry about it. It's actually got a great plot, and I know how much you hate books that have a terrible plot."

I glared at him and he held his hands up.

"Relax, I'm not tricking you. Just try it, ok?" He started to walk away.

"Where are you going?" I asked him.

"To answer your earlier question, two."

I stood there watching him walk away, confused as to what he meant. I looked down at the book and decided it wouldn't hurt to give it a try. I looked around for a good spot to start reading and saw a black-haired girl with a bow reading next to a candle a few feet away. I walked over and sat on the other side of the candle.

"Do you mind if I read here too?" I asked her.

She glanced up at me with golden eyes, then went back to reading.

"I'll take that as a no then." I mumbled to myself as I sat down and started reading. After a while the two girls I saw on the airship walked over to the black-haired girl and started talking to her. It wasn't going so well from what I observed, but I did learn their names. The gold one was called Yang, the other was her sister Ruby, and the girl whose candle I was sharing was named Blake. After a bit a white-haired girl showed up and the conversation started to get loud. I heard that her name was Wiess and from what I heard, her and Ruby were responsible for the explosion I heard earlier. They started arguing nonstop and i was about to tell them to quiet down when I saw that Blake had picked up the candle. She was about to blow it out before realizing that I was also using it to read.

"Is it okay for me to put it out?" she asked me.

"Go ahead."

She blew out the candle and darkness enveloped the hall.
