Chapter 1: The Nighttime Dust Robbery
It was night time, and on the roof of a dust store sat a young man of 16 years. His hair was a nice shade of blonde, in which it glowed during both day and night. His eyes were a nice blue, and his attire consisted of a white muscle shirt, a white vest that was zipped up 2/3 of the way, along with a black collar that was kept up, and around his neck was a pendant with a gem that matched the color of his collar. He wore black pants that had a silver chain hanging over his left leg, and shoes that were black, with green stripes on the side. His name was Grey Storm. He was mostly a carefree person, and enjoyed making friends wherever he went. You'd think people with this kind of name would be a serious and partially anti-social, but that wasn't the case with Grey.
(POV: Grey)
I was looking at the stars, a hobby of mine that I often did when I felt like it. I was enjoying the peace and quiet, until I noticed five strange looking men walking towards the store. One of them had a cane, and wore a hat and a white coat. The other four were wearing black suits with red ties and glasses, complete with a black hat as well. I watched as they entered the store, and decided to wait.
Oh, wait! I haven't introduced you to my weapons yet! Sorry! My gauntlets, which I primarily fight with, are called Fierce Fangs while my swords are Flamberge, Glacier, and Sky Chaser, each representing fire, ice and wind respectively. They can also transform into pistols. Anyway, back to waiting.
Only a few moments later, I heard a crash and looked down to see that a young girl had tackled one of the thugs through the window, holding a scythe that was at least twice her height. Her hair was black with red tips, and she had silver eyes. I was certain that I had seen her before. Soon after, the other 3 came running out, in which I decided to join in on the fun. I proceeded to send 2 of them flying away, with the girl following suit with the other. A dozen more came soon after, but I unleashed my Flamberge and Glacier swords, and sent the goons away, along with help from the girl. Right after that, the man in white came out and proceeded to talk. It was then that I recognized that it was Roman Torchwick.
"You were worth every cent. Truly you were. Well Red, I think we can all say it's been an eventful evening, and as much as I'd love to stick around, this is where we part ways."
Soon after, he shot at the ground and proceeded to escape to the roof, with Red following right after. I decided to give chase after the two. It wasn't long until I caught up with them, but now Roman was attempting an escape in a Bullhead. We tried to stop him, but he threw a red dust crystal at us that exploded when he shot it. However, a blonde woman with green eyes appeared before it happened and protected us. She proceeded to use some awesome magic to try to stop them.
And by them, I mean that there was another person on board that switched places and proceeded to counter the attacks. Soon after, they both got away.
Next thing I know, I find Red and myself in a dark room with a single light shining down. A person then enters the room. He had gray messy hair and had glasses on. I knew who he was. He then proceeded to talk to me, while he showed me footage of the fight me and the girl got into.
"Well, nice to meet you, Grey Storm, and Ruby Rose. I'll get straight to the point. Ruby, where did you learn to fight with a scythe, and who taught you how to use those dangerous swords, Mr. Storm?"
'Ah, so that's her name! She goes to Signal as well! Wait, how does he know mine though…?' I thought to myself as I answered first.
"While I did have a master who taught me hand-to-hand combat, I actually trained myself with swords as I grew up. I have a fondness for fighting, along with helping those in need. I always had the dream of becoming a Hunter to help people." I said, and he looked satisfied with my answer. Now it was Ruby's turn.
"As for me, I learned to fight like that while I was training with my Uncle Qrow. As for the scythe, I built it myself since it was required." It was true, since students at Signal were required to build their own weapons. Her answer was also satisfactory for him, and he once again talked.
"As you may know, I am Professor Ozpin, headmaster of Beacon Academy. What I am about to ask of you may change your life. Will the both of you become students of Beacon?" He finished talking, and both Ruby and I shouted "YES!" This was awesome! Already able to join Beacon even though we hadn't finished the years at our other academy, Signal? WHY NOT! This was going to be an experience to remember!
