Chapter 2: shadows child.

"Finale call for dustship 10753 to beacon academy from mistral station." Played the speaker on top of the ticket station.

Esper opened his eyes and picked up his bag and weapon, checking his ticket before getting up off the bench he made his way to the gate to board the ship. Once Esper's things were stored he toke his seat next to the window of the ship and closed his eyes.

thinking to himself "This is going to be a long flight might as well get some sleep".

"We will be landing in beacon academy in five minutes." Called the pilot of the dust ship.

Forcing his eyes open Esper noticed a weight on his left arm and shoulder. looking down he saw that a girl about his age with pale skin and brown hair with what he believed to be long brown rabbit ears, rolling his shoulder gently to wake her up and feeling the weight on his arm lessen.

" Hey there little bunny, would you mind releasing my arm i seam to have completely loose feeling in it" Esper gently said to the faunus girl.

With a squike the girl let go apologizing profusely" oh god I'm so sorry I didn't mean to fall asleep on it I'm so sorry."

With a smile " it's ok i didn't mind, the names Esper Florence, what's yours?."

With a shy smile "oh sorry the names Velvet Scarlatina and as you can see I'm a faunus."

With a soft smile Esper just got up and brushed her nose with his long black monkey tail.

"So am I" he said.

With a loud thud the ship landed, collecting his thing and helping velvet get hers they headed for the door at the back.

With his bag on one shoulder and his weapon in the other, Esper stepped into the landing pad of beacon Academy. Velvet beside him he looked over and could see three other dustship each with the different kingdoms symbols on the sides. With his Faunus eyesight he noticed six other people take his attention away from every other student that was making there way off the ships.

First was tall boy with dark skin and burnt orange skin and pure white eyes, armored gauntlets on his arms with no visible weapon.

"Got to learn more about him" Esper whispered to himself

The second and third people was a boy and a girl. The boy was very tall and quite massively built with grey hair and was wearing a black trench coat over a metal chest plate with armored gloves and boots. A massive two handed sword could be seen poking over his shoulder.

"don't want to get hit by that sword" Esper though to himself.

The girl had long crimson red hair down to her knees tied two ponytails on either side of her head, she was wearing a bodysuit that matched her hair and had two knives on her hips.

The fourth and firth were two girls, one with orange shoulder lengthy hair And A Combat Vest Covered With Knives But The Item That Toke Esper attention was the shortsword resting in the knock of her lower back. The other girl had dark brown hair and black beret and black and brown sunglasses, carrying a briefcase but again no weapon like the orange haired boy

"hard to judge someone when you can see a weapon" Esper though.

The last one was another boy that towered above the rest and also wielded a two handed sword but unlike the grey haired boys it wasn't as wide or as long and seemed to have a little hook on the end, he was muscular but again not as much as the grey haired boy. He was lightly tanned and had short black hair, he wore a pale green long sleeved robe with brown pants and black boots. , also had a bracer that started at his wrist and come up just over his shoulder.

Looking back at the school Esper and velvet set off looking for the entry assembly
