A/N: Here is the second chapter in the aventure of Leo and Lux. I just wanted to say S/O to the person that followed my story. I appreciate you!

Chapter 2

Initiation Day. Beacon Cliffs

"Branch! More branches!" Leo said covering his face with both his arms as he flew through the air. "... Oh, crap." Leo added as he saw a big tree right in his path. He braced for impact sending his left shoulder first. The knight broke through the tree trunk crashed into the next.

He picked himself up. "Well, so much for a landing strategy" Leo said as he checked his equipment and weapons. "Now time to find Lux." He walked for a couple of minutes looking around for any signal of his sister. "I need to get to a more clear area." He said to himself. He reached a clear in the forest and started to look above the tree line for any signal of Lux, "C'mon sis where are you?" asked himself when he suddenly heard a sound behind him.

He turned around and picked his handgun on his left hand and aimed where the sound came from. He slowly moved towards a bush that was a couple of feet into the forest. "Is somebody there?" He asked to no one in particular. He pointed his gun in the direction of the bush ready to fire.

"Incoming!" shouted a girl in ample brown and purple clothing with a bow on her hand. She jumped over the bush and passed right besides Leo and stopped behind him. Before he could say anything he saw a pack of beowolves rushing right behind her. Without hesitation he started unloading his handgun on the first couple of grimm killing them and making the rest of the pack slowdown their pace. "Don't you just stand there help me with this!" Leo told the girl. She gave the soldier a blank stare. "Hey! Are you there?! Can't do this on my own." He said as he shook her.

She finally reacted and started shooting her bow at the grimm. She kept shooting arrow after arrow, each one of them reached its target in the head.

"Name's Yolanda" She finally said without stopping shooting.

"What?" Replied Leo as he switched for his sword.

"My name is Yolanda!" she repeated.

"I don't think this is the moment for introductions!" Leo shouted as he sliced a grimm in half.

"Well I don't like to fight next to strangers soldier boy."

"I'll tell you my name after we get out of this!" Leo added as he dodged a blow and decapitated a boewolf.

Minutes earlier

"Wheeee!" Cheered Lux as she flew trough the air. She enjoyed the feeling of flying through the air. When she started to fall she aimed for a tree and she took Spark from her back and transformed into twin swords form. She used one of them to anchor herself to the tree and descending around the tree trunk. When she was a couple of feet above the ground, she let herself go from the tree and landed doing a roll. She stood up and sheathed her swords on her belt, the one on her left hand behind her and the other on her left side. She looked around her, "ok, I'm in a forest. I need to get to a open area to signal my brother." She said inside her head. She started to walk for a couple of minutes.

"Why do I have to make the signal? It isn't as if Leo can't do it." She complained. "Ugh… Screw it! I'll do it here."

She heard howling in the distance behind her. She quickly turned towards the sound and reached for her swords and she scanned the area carefully walked slowly backwards scanning carefully the area. "All clear, keep yourself together Lux." She said to herself. "Time to give the signal." She stood, she raised her hand and an orb of light started to appear floating on her palm. The orb emitted a bright white light.

"Leo should be able to spot this."

"Watch out! Behind you!" Suddenly said a male voice coming from one a tree in front of her. The orb dissipated. Lux looked behind her and from the corner of her eye she spotted an ursa about to get a hit on her. She barely dodged it. She reached for Spark and got herself in combat stance when a bolt flew a feet next to her and landed on the ursa's head making it drop dead before disappearing.

The blonde girl turned around to see the guy that just saved her. When she turned she saw a young man. His hair was black and his skin tanned. He wore a green sleeve-less hoodie and khaki pants. He also wore an arm bond with an eagle emblem in the middle and a long feather attached to it, and two leather bracers, one on each arm. He carried a crossbow and a circular shield on his back.

"Are you alright?" He asked first taking of his hood and allowed Lux see his green eyes.

"Yeah, thanks to you!" Lux answered. "My name is Lux." She added.

"Hunter, Matlal Hunter. But everyone calls me Mat." The black haired man said.

"Nice to meet you." She said with a smile.

"Nice to meet you too!" He replied with a light smile. He transformed his crossbow into some sort a baton and hanged it from his belt. She hadn't noticed the red feather hanging from the handle.

"I guess we are partners." Mat said

"Yeah, I guess we are." Lux replied.

"We should get going, we don't want to be the last ones to the relic." He suggested.

"Before that I have to send a signal." Clarified Lux.

"Is that what you were doing?" Mat asked.

"Yes, that way I… we can meet with my brother." She said as she raised her hand and created another orb of light on top of her hand and launched it in the air.

"Now we wait for his answer."

Somewhere else in the forest

"That was the last of them." Announced Yolanda.

Leo looked around and put his sword on his back and Yolanda did the same with her bow. She removed her hood and allowed Leo to take a better look at her face. She had red fire hair, her skin was pale with a couple of freckles on her cheeks, but what stood out the most were her eyes. The right eye was a normal brown eye, but her left one was bright yellow with a slit pupil. "A faunus" Leo said under his breath staring at her reptilian eye.

"What was that?" she asked pretending she didn't hear him.

"No, nothing" He answered.

"Don't worry about the eye, it freaks everyone out at first." She said with a smile.

"Anyway, thanks for saving me. I don't know if I could've lost them." She added.

"Oh, no problem." Said Leo. "It was nothing really." He added

"So… what's your name?" she asked curiously.

"Oh right, my name is Leo Winter." He answered as he concealed his helmet inside the back of his chest plate.

"Nice to meet you partner." She said smiling.

Leo nodded with a light smirk. He immediately looked up above the trees and spotted a pulsation bright light suspended in the air. Yolanda turned around and saw the light that reminded her of a lighthouse. "What's that?"

"My sister." Leo said.

"Your sister?"

"Yes. Now give me a moment." He said. He made an orb of light appear on his palm. And he launched it way above the tree line. Both orbs started to blink before disappearing.

"Now what?" the Faunus asked.

"We meet with my sister and then we head to the temple."

"Safety in numbers, that sounds like a plan. I like it" Yolanda admitted.

The pair started walking in the direction the orb was.
