A/N: So this is my very first attempt at writing a fan fiction, so I hope I do somewhat well during this. Oh one last thing before I go, check out a story titled Ancient Secrets by Lazerbear7, It is a very good story along with his other story. This story will, for the most part, go along with the actual show. This first chapter will be in 3rd person and the rest will most likely be in 1st. Enjoy!
'Damn it, the shop's about to close up' Thought a young man as he ran through the streets of vale and into the dust shop looking for energy crystals and dust for his weapon. He picked up a few crystals and vials of the volatile substance and made his way to the checkout but not before noticing a girl in the back that looked just about his age reading a magazine titled 'Weapons" and listening to a loud rock song through a red set of headphones with roses on both sides. She had a very strange, although nice looking, set of clothes on. She wore a bright red cloak that was pinned to her shirt with cross style pins, she also had a belt containing several different pouches with what he assumed to be ammo for the large box she had strapped on the back of her belt. In addition to all of that, she had black and red combat boots, a black shirt and skirt both with red trimmings, and black stockings.
He himself was about 5'5, very scrawny with very little muscular strength. He was a wolf Faunus with both ears and a tail. His hands, although boney, had retractable claws that he rarely ever used. His clothes consisted of a long black robe with a hood that hid most of his face in a shadow, preventing anyone from seeing his wolf ears. The robe itself helps hide his tale and thin structure. He pushed back a strand of long black hair back into the hood and took a look at his eyes in the reflection of the glass counter. They were a deep blood red with specks of blue here and there.
'Damn, he thought, she's actually pretty cute'. He immediately wiped that thought out of his head. 'There's no way I could even come close to talking to her, she probably already has a boyfriend anyways.' He finished paying for his dust, but as soon as he was about to turn and leave he saw a large group of men wearing black suits and red ties with black hats and glasses with swords and guns strapped to their sides enter through the front entrance.
"Well hello you two, it is a very nice evening to rob a dust shop don't you think?" said a man in a white, black, and red suit, smoking a cigar and wearing a black bowler hat while carrying a cane even though he didn't look injured. Will couldn't shake the feeling he should watch out for that thing if it came down to fighting. He pulled the hood on his cloak tighter over his head to avoid eye contact. He slowly started to reach for his weapon, something he was very proud of.
His weapon, Naze, named after one of his long dead ancestors, was a two meter long black collapsible spear with wires running up through the shaft and into the blue tinted blade causing an electric charge to be applied to the blade when his aura was directed into the spear. The weapon could also launch the blade at a high velocity into its target and retract using the wires to pull the blade back into the shaft. It was also capable of generating glyphs when the need arose.
"Hey, hey, hey, kid let's not get violent here, all we want is the dust, and you can go with your life." At that very moment one of his henchmen went flying out the shop window and sprawling into the street. The boss took one look and nodded in the direction the first thug came from and the next moment the other two followed suit. This gave the young man the time he needed to pull out and extend his spear, giving a shock filled jab to the boss of the thugs, causing him to fly back out the front door. Before the young man walked out he looked over at where the girl in red was to see if she was ok. Her headphones were now around her neck and in her hands was a large scythe easily two times her size, with an unhappy look on her face. She had no visible Injuries on her so he turned and ran outside to confront the thugs and their boss.
When he opened the door he saw the reason of why that cane seemed so out of place pointed directly in his face. It turned out that it was a cane gun. He quickly flared his red and black aura and he made copies of himself surround the man and caused them to move at a seemingly impossible speed, which confused the cane gun wielding thug and caused him to get dizzy and almost toppling to the ground. Right before he regained his balance, he received another aura filled shock from Naze and was knocked back once again. The cloaked kid looked over to see the young girl finish off the smaller thugs and start chasing after the leader, who was now climbing up a fire escape to the roof of a nearby apartment building. The young girl pointed the head of her scythe at the ground and immediately shot up to the roof in a puff of smoke and-wait-were those rose petals? The cloaked boy stood there, confused as he cast a jumping glyph and flew up to the roof beside the girl only to see the boss get into a bullhead and, to his surprise, a woman firing what seemed to be pieces of the roof using a riding crop as a catalyst only to have them destroyed by an amber eyed woman inside the bullhead before the vehicle sped away. To his surprise, the young girls' eyes got very wide as she said "You're a Huntress… CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH?" The huntress only gave her and angry glare as an answer.
He and the young girl sat in a dark room with only one light as the witch rambled on about how irresponsible their actions were. He zoned her out, and finally got the chance to examine the two women. The young girl had dark hair with red tips and very bright silver eyes. The older woman, whom he now knew to be a huntress, wore a white and black shirt with a black dress and a shredded purple and black cape. She had blond hair and very bright green eyes, with a pair of silver glasses over them. She wore her hair in a bun with a small amount off to the side in a spiral. She was holding a scroll on which he could see various things such as charts and reports.
The huntress suddenly slapped her riding crop on the table and looked straight at the young man and asked "You haven't said a word this entire time, what is your name?" "Will." He said in a very soft and quiet voice. "Well Will, What do you have to say for yourself?" 'Shit,' thought the young man. In the same quiet voice he responded with "I only did what I thought was right, I didn't even get the original energy crystals and dust I came to get." The older woman scoffed and said "Well there is someone who would like to meet you two." She stepped aside to reveal a tall silver haired man in a green and black suit with glasses holding a plate of cookies, a mug of coffee, and a bag from the dust store around his arm.
He looked closely at the young girl and said "Ruby Rose, you have…silver eyes." And set down the plate of cookies, which Ruby immediately started to devour leaving one aside for the kid next to her, and handed Will the bag. Will looked inside and saw more Energy dust and crystals than he originally bought. He went to say something but the silver haired man stopped him and said "Consider it a reward for your bravery." As response, Will cowered deep into his robes and noticed the man observing him "Yes?" Will asked. "It's just that I haven't seen you before. My name is Professor Ozpin, I am headmaster at Beacon Academy and this here is Glynda Goodwitch, one of the teachers. Now, what is your name?" All eyes in the room were on him, "Will." He replied quietly obviously scared of what was to come.
"Well, Will, Ruby, do you mind telling me where you learned to do this?" said Ozpin as Glynda pulled up a recording of the two fighting. Ruby immediately replied saying "I was taught at Signal by my uncle Qrow." She then looked over expectantly at Will as he nervously said "M-most of it was s-self-taught but m-my family trained m-me, specifically my f-f-father." He stuttered out. "Self-taught Hm? How much did your father teach you?" replied Ozpin as he took a large sip from his mug? "J-Just the basics." As he thought about using an illusion to escape this man and two women blatantly staring at him. "I see. This recording does not show much except for a couple of jabs which, surprisingly, considering your build, knocked the enemy back quite a ways. Can you please explain?"
Suddenly getting excited, which surprised everyone, about getting to brag about Naze, "Well, Its name is Naze and it has wires running through the shaft into the spearhead which, when charged with a small amount of aura, activates the energy crystal which delivers a large electric shock to my foe." Finished Will, quickly ducking back into his robes and started to prepare his aura to cause an illusion in the form of a bang on the wall so he could sneak out. He heard the bang and made a break for the door, but before he could Glynda was in front of him looking angry which caused him to create three copies of himself all of which found a separate corner to cower in before Miss Goodwitch grabbed the real Will and dropped him back into his seat while he started to cower again.
"Well now that that is over, please refrain from doing that again. I have a proposition for you two." he stated "how would you two like to join beacon?" Immediately Ruby and Will perked up. Ruby screamed yes while Will just nodded speechlessly and relaxed in his chair, mouth still wide open. Ozpin smiled and said "Good, now if you will excuse me, I have some paperwork to do regarding two new students. Have a good day. Glynda, could you please guide them out after they come to their senses?" "Yes sir" she replied "Good, I will see you tomorrow. I expect a lot from you two these next four years." Ozpin said as he left thinking 'now this could get to be a very interesting year.' He chuckled to himself a bit and continued to Beacon to do the paperwork.
