Chapter 1
"...and furthermore, the beowolf could not best me, and I triumphantly returned from my battle just in time for supper. Thank you for listening". Professer Port had just finished yet another one of his stories that essentially put all students (save Weiss) to sleep. "But if you think that story was riveting then you wont believe this next one".
Ruby groaned from boredom. She found it depressing that someone could take something as cool and dangerous as the grimm and find anway to make it boring 'Well he is a teacher', thought Ruby, 'It's not like they're good at making anything fun. Well I guess Professor Goodwich's class is fun. And Oobleck is always hyper and kind of funny I guess. Oh and uncle Qrow is such a cool teacher too and not to menti-'
"Did you hear me? Ahem, ?" said Professor Port.
Ruby's head shot straight off the desk and looked at the Professor "Uhhhh yes?" she answered.
"Good, be on your way then" he said as he continued his story to the rest of the class.
"Waah?" said Ruby. 'Be on your way? Whats that supposed to mean?'
"Well are you coming or what?" said a clearly annoyed voice from her right. Ruby turned to see Weiss waiting for her at the end of the row. "Well are you?".
"Uh yea yea lets go to uh the place we have to go to...together...hehehe" said Ruby
As they walked out of the class Weiss angrily whispered to Ruby "You have no idea where we are going do you?"
Ruby hung her head in shame."Noo".
"Uggh you absolute Dunce. Would it kill you to pay attention in class at least once in your life?" said Weiss as they entered the hall.
"Thats not fair!", whined Ruby, "Professor Port's class is beyond boring and it's not like anyone else pays attention".
Weiss rolled her eyes. "I do thank you very much".
"Yea well your not that fun either now are you" grumbled Ruby to herself.
"What was that?" asked Weiss suspiciously.
"Nothing!" exclaimed Ruby.
After minutes of silence Ruby spoke up.
"So um where are we going again?" mumbled Ruby.
"We're going to see Professor Ozpin. Apparently he has a mission for us and-"
"THEN WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR?!" yelled Ruby excitedly. Weiss yelped as Ruby grabbed Weiss and ran to Ozpin's office. Ruby loved going on missions above anything else the school had to offer. Fighting was her thing and while sparring was fun, going on missions was when she truly felt like a huntress. Because of her excited running, it only took them a few minutes to reach Ozpin's office.
The duo approached the great wooden doors of the Headmaster's office and entered them, only to find him expectantly waiting for them. He gestured for the two to take the seats in front of his desk and he began to debreif them.
"I have called you two to go on a...well unique mission. There is a beowolf nest of five, two fully grown and three younger ones, in the forest of Forever Fall near Talon's Peak that needs to be cleared out. Intel says that there are no other grimm within the area so expect only the Beowolf. You'll leave in aproximently 35 minutes after accepting and an airship will send you 5 miles away from the nest. On your scrolls you will find all the intel for this mission, including where to find the nest from the drop off site and the rendezvous point where the ship will pick you up after completing said mission. Do you two accept?"
'Easy', thought Ruby, 'this'll be a peice of cake'. " We accept".
"Wait, um professor", began Weiss, "you said that this mission was unique but it sounds pretty simple. I mean its nothing me and Ruby haven't done before."
"Ahh yes well about that." said Ozpin. "There have been similar reports regarding the nest that states that a young man, presumably a faunus, is living in a cave within 500 feet of the beowolves and is going completely unnoticed by the grimm. Though these reports are, however, unlikely as the grimm's sense of smell would have caught him and he would be either be dead or far away from there once they did, it still makes this mission peculiar. You may go get ready now, the ship 30
As the girls left the room Ozpin began to worry. 'If these reports are true...then could it possibly be him? And if it is, then what could this mean?' He looked up and saw the girls walking to thier rooms to get prepared for this possibly dangerous task. He saw Ruby excitedly jumping around while Weiss tried to contain her partner. 'Oh how I hope im wrong about my suspicions...for their sake'
