Chapter 1.

Although she is one of a few students, Ruby Rose is NOT the only student to get into Beacon Academy earlier then they should've. A young girl named Zoey, a 15 year old girl, made it into Beacon as well. She impressed Ozpin when she fought a few of her bullies who were tournament winning champions, at her school when he happened to walk past the fight, although she wasn't talented in fighting, something about her impressed Ozpin. Shy and anti-social, Her and Ruby would become great friends, however their stay at beacon would be interesting as a new threat shows up and Zoey's past comes back to haunt her.

Zoey on the surface was just a shy, anti-social girl. She always isolated herself, never talked to anyone if she didn't have to.
Her grades weren't great but not terrible at the same time, nothing really special about her aside from the tragedies of her past.
She doesn't know why she gets picked on, she just does, one group in particular seems to go out of their way just to make Zoey's life a living hell.

Zoey's school days are simple for her; go to class, eat, get picked on (which she is used to), go home, sleep, and repeat. she wasn't happy with this life, she's just ok with it, she's used to this and knows that nothing will change, or so she thought.

The day was passing on as usual, she went to class, took a test, got picked on and went to get lunch in the cafeteria and went to her normal spot in the back of the school, alone. She was surprised to hear someone talking, she was shocked when she realized the voice was talking to HER.

"Hiya."

The voice made Zoey jump, almost spilling her tray of food as she looked up to see a girl standing in front of her. The girl looked older than her,
had blue hair and green eyes. This was new to Zoey and she didn't know what to do, she just froze in place staring at her food until she heard the voice again.

"You know its rude to ignore someone when they are talking to you." The voice said annoyed.

Zoey was shocked that someone wanted to talk to her without picking on her or beating her up.

"M-Me?" Zoey barely manged to ask.

"Yeah you, Who else?"

"Its just that, no one really... I don't..."

The voice cut her off. "I get it, no one really talks to you. but when someone DOES you can at least acknoledge them."

Zoey is at a loss for words. "S-Sorry"

The girl sits next to Zoey. "C'mon you can at least try and defend yourself."

"S-Sorry" Zoey repeats. The girl was annoyed by that answer. Zoey just stared into her food not knowing what to do. She stared so intensely that she didn't notice the girl was snooping through her backpack.

"Well well, What do we have here?" Zoey turns and see's that the girl got into her backpack and pulled out her stuff.

"Hey, give that back"

"Cool whats this?" the girl asked as she pulled a staff like object

"Its my weapon" She said defensively. The girl smiled at her. "This is cool, what is this?" the girl asked.

Zoey was shocked that someone was interested in something she loved. shes not good at fighting but Zoey loves weapons. Especially her own.
And the fact that someone was interested made her suspicious. the last time this happened she got a bucket of fish dumped on her.
Zoey didn't like lying, so she told the girl a vague truth. There were some secrets she didnt want people knowing about her weapon.

"I made it myself" Zoey replied. "School policy and all."

The girl looked at the weapon curiously. She knew that Zoey was vague, but decided to play dumb, that didnt stop the girl from voicing her opinion on the weapon "Not bad, but they could use some improvements."

"What kind of improvements?" Zoey asked. "The ones that make things better." The girl replied

"And your in luck I still have some parts from my friend at my old school in Atlas"

Zoey was a bit surprised at this. "You'r from Atlas? "Yep, but I moved to Vale around 7 years ago. And I've been home schooled for the past 3 years."

Zoey never met anyone outside of Vale, but them again she barely meets anyone from Vale. One thing caught attention her though. "Wait. if you home schooled, then why are you here at Steam Source. The girl was still smiling. "you seriously haven't picked up yet? i'm a new student here at Steam Source."

Zoey realized why someone was talking to her in a friendly way, she didn't know who she was. Zoey barely knew who she was, almost no memories of her childhood except for the past 2 years at Steam Source. she knew that this girl would get bullied to if she was seen talking to her. Zoey didn't want her to get hurt cause of her.

"your new so you don't know do you?" The girl was a bit confused "know what?" "listen, thanks for the talk, it was nice but i think you should avoid me now." The Girl's Smile and cheerful attitude did not falter. "Why would i want to do that?" "Well, i'm not exactly liked here at Steam Source." Before the girl could reply Zoey continued "And i don't mean im just hated, i get beaten up everyday."
This changed the girls expression.

"Everyday?" "Yeah, mainly from this one group." The girl's expression was a mix of pity and curiosity. "Why don't you just tell the school? Get them suspended or something." The girl noticed Zoey's scar around her eye. its not too big and was hidden under the shadow of her hat. "is that from them too?" Zoey pulled her hat down a bit and answered. No, i've had this for a long time. but this."
she lifted her shirt a bit too show her torso was pretty much made of bandages. This kinda annoyed the girl. "Do you even fight back?"

Zoey not wanting to answer made her realize that the conversation went off track. "Not important. the important thing is that you should avoid me for your own safely." The girl just stared for a bit before asking a question. "What group?" This confused Zoey. "What?. "You said that one group mainly beats you up, who are they?" The girl was calm when asking this. not angry, not sad, not anything but calm.
Zoey guessed what she was going to do. "telling the principle wont do a thing." The girl just remained calm. "why is that?"
"because the group are tournament winners. If they get in trouble they cant compete in tournaments, and if they cant compete, the school cant get any credibility or lien."

The Girl just remained calm. "Man i knew you got picked on but that's just..." Zoey caught what she said. "Wait, you knew i got picked on and you still came to talk to me?" The girl smiled. Remember what i said earlier? i said: I get it, no one really talks to you.

but when someone DOES you can at least acknoledge them.
Zoey just remained quiet. "Besides i know everyone here is an asshole, i knew that the second i walked in the school." "What made you think i wasn't" "It was mainly the fact you were leaving the cafeteria alone with a couple of douche bags throwing food at you. you obviously were not friends with anyone since everyone laughed.

Zoey didn't know what to say. she didn't need to, the girl spoke first. "you never answered my question." "What?" Zoey asked confused.
"Do you even fight back?" Zoey just remained silent. "Why don't you defend yourself?" Silence still. "Maybe you can." The girl said to herself.
Zoey heard her. "What does that mean?" Zoey asked still confused. before she could answer the bell rang

"I'll tell you after school, come by the park behind the school" the girl said as she was picking up her backpack

Just as the girl was leaving, Zoey realized something

"Hey wait!" Zoey called out. "You still have my Staff!"

"Just get it after school." she said. "Don't worry, I wont break it." She said cheerfully. "I need something to make sure you show up" The girl just smiled "See you after school Zoey." and went into the school before Zoey could say anything else. Zoey chased her but lost the girl in a sea of students.

Zoey didn't know how to feel about the recent event. she was confused on what just happened. she didn't know this girl and she just shows up and acts as if they are friends. are they friends? She doesn't even know the blue haired girls name. Zoey thought this to herself over and over. She wanted to avoid the girl so she didn't cause her problems but she needed to get her weapons back. they were special to her.

Zoey Arrived at the park as soon as school ended. she waited for about 30 minutes before someone approached her, and unfortunately for her, it was not the blue haired girl.

Professor Ozpin was just taking a stroll through town, being a few days before school would start he wanted to take a nice short walk to relax. He didn't have a destination, just wanted to have a nice walk with a cup of coffie. he realised that he was in a part of Vale that he hasn't been to in a long time, passing by Steam source academy,
a rather run down school that he expected to be closed a long time ago. not many of his students came from here, however there have been a few people from here. He decided to go by the park.

No reason really, he just felt like something was there. It felt like the universe was yearning him to go to the park, that something there would catch his interest. As he was passing through he noticed 5 kids.

A girl with pink shaded hair on the ground in pain, A girl with Blue hair yelling at 3 kids who were laughing at the girl on the ground, 2 boys who seemed to have a source of negativity around them, and another girl with glowing brown hair who seemed annoyed by the girl with blue haired girl. Seeing the girl on the ground in pain, and someone yelling at the other kids who laughed made it obvious what had happened; the 3 kids were bullying the Pink haired girl and the blue haired one was intervening.

He recognized the 3 bullies. They had won multiple tournaments in the past. They had a good record for kids in this part of Vale, and they were on his radar to invite them to beacon in a few years if they kept their record up. Suddenly the pack of bullies, who he recognized as "The Colors of Oblivion", got fed up with the girl with blue hair and started beating her. One of the bullies pulled their weapon and kept hitting the blue haired girl in the head.

Ozpin started his way toward them until the girl with pink hair got up, with her weapon drawn. "LEAVE HER ALONE" The girl screamed, the bullies stopped and just stared at her, then the rest drew their weapons. Sipping his coffee, he watched from a distance. The pink haired girl was fatigued, and already kinda beaten, her stance showed she was obviously an amateur at fighting, and she was going to fight a champion winning team who still had their strength.

"This is going to be interesting." Ozpin thought to himself as the kids ran toward each other with their weapons ready.
