Hi everyone. Hope you enjoyed the last chapter. And from now on ill use romanji when it comes to drivers . Now on to the next chapter
Chapter 2: A Riders training and the New Age
Azure stared at the man who was in front of him. He had scraggly silver hair with brown eyes. He wore shaded glass spectacles and a small, purple, cross-shaped pin on a cowl around his neck. He wore what seemed to be an unzipped black suit over a buttoned vest and green shirt. He also wears black trouser shoes and long, dark-green pants. The thing that caught Azures eyes was the fedora on top of his head and a white scarf around his neck. Before Azure could open his mouth to speak two figures jumped between them. The appearance of these figures shocked him as they both appeared to be riders
The first figure wore a black bodysuit like most riders. The rider looked to be female if the shape of the armour was any indication. She wore white armour over the upper part of the black bodysuit and around her shins. Decorating the white armour was gold and silver accents that looked like a swan spreading its wings. The helmet was similar to the armour, white with gold and silver accents. Around her waist was a silver belt with what appeared to be a swan decorating the centre. Her look was topped with a white cape flowing behind her.
The second figure wore a black bodysuit as well, making Azure wonder if it was a fashion trend for riders. Around the bodysuit he mostly wore bulky blue armour around his upper body with the forearms and legs being silver. Around his waist was a sliver belt with a folded up blue device attached to it. His helmet was blue and silver with red eyes. But what caught Azures attention was the sides of his helmet looked the like the pincers of a stag beetle
The two riders looked ready to attack in case Azure tried anything until Ozpin cleared his throat "Now now. Don't be hostile. Let me talk to the young man." The two riders thought for a moment before nodding and stepping aside. Ozpin looked at Azure "I am so sorry for my companions. They are a little on edge due to Decade's reputation. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Ozpin, Headmaster of Beacon" Azure nodded "I know, anyone who lives in Vale knows of the headmaster of best schools in the kingdom"
Ozpin coughed then nodded "Fair point. Anyway these are my companions Glynda Goodwitch, or in this form she goes by Kamen Rider Femme" He gestured towards the white armoured rider "and this his Bartholomew Oobleck, or when he's transformed Kamen Rider Gatack" He then gestured to the blue rider. "If you don't mind I would like you to come with me. I want to ask you a few questions" Azure hesitated for a minute before nodding and began following Ozpin
At Beacon
Both Azure and Ozpin were sitting within his office. Behind him was Glynda, who had detransformed, She appeared to be a middle-aged woman with very light-blonde hair tied back in a bun with a curl hanging down the right side of her face. Her eyes are bright green and she wore thin ovular glasses. She had dangling teal earrings that match the hanging pendant on her collar. She wore a white long-sleeved, pleated top that had a wide keyhole neckline and gauntlet cuffs that flare in pleats at the wrist. She wore black boots with bronze heels, and a cape that was purple inside and black on the outside. She also had a row of diamond-shaped bronze beads on the back. Above this line of beads appeared to be an emblem of a tiara.
Ozpin took a sip of his coffee mug before speaking up "Do you mind telling me about yourself?" Azure shrugged "I don't really know where to start." Ozpin coughed into his hand "The beginning would be nice" Azure nodded "I guess. I spent a lot of my life in an orphanage in a town between the Vale and Atlas border" This made Ozpin raise his eye "An Orphanage?" Azure nodded "The very first memory I have is being abandoned on a doorstep in the pouring rain, The lady who ran the place took me in and raised me like I was her own" Ozpin nodded "I see. She must have been a very kind woman"
Azure nodded "Granny Fushi treated all the kids equally. She was kind yet stern at the same time, she was the perfect role model to us" He reached into his pocket and pulled out his photo "That's her there" He pointed to the old woman in the picture. Ozpin nodded "I can see that's you" he pointed to the young Azure "But who are the other two" Azure smiled and pointed at the other boy in the picture "That's Onyx. He was one of the few friends I had in the orphanage. He always tried to prove how "cool" he was but he was a really nice guy" He then pointed to the girl in the picture "This is Neo. She was my best friend. We did everything together and we were really apart from each other. She's mute so she always carried around a drawing pad to tell people what she wanted to say" He gave a small smile which Ozpin noticed "You really care for her" This made Azure nod "yeah… But by the time I had realised my feelings she had been adopted and had moved far away" He put the picture back in his pocket
Ozpin pushed his glasses up "so how is the orphanage now" Azure looked down sadly. "It's gone. The town the orphanage was in was attacked by Grimm seven years ago. The kids survived but Granny died making sure we escaped. All the kids were taken by Huntsmen and Huntresses to another orphanage. I stayed there until I became a legal adult and tried to live my life the way Granny wanted me to" His fists were trembling at this point as Ozpin bowed his head "I'm sorry for your loss" Azure quickly shook his head "It's fine. Granny always said we shouldn't fixate on the past as we could end up shackled by it"
Ozpin decided to change the subject "May I see your driver and book?" Azure nodded and handed him the two items "Interesting. You have access to Kuuga from Kiva" Ozpin said making Azure raise an eyebrow. Ozpin decided to elaborate "The true power of Decade is the ability to copy the form and abilities of different riders. But I wonder how many forms you will achieve now" Azure only looked more confused making Ozpin sigh "When we received our powers we were told this "The birth of Decade symbolises the coming of a new age. Now that there's a new decade new riders will soon reveal themselves."
Azure took a moment to let this all sink in as Ozpin stood up "I have a proposition for you. Become a teacher at this school and help me find the new riders. We will other you food, shelter and a steady income" Azure looked shocked at this "B-But I don't know the first thing about teaching! Also I have a job at Tukson's book store" Ozpin pushed his glasses up "In regards to the teaching; we want you to become a training instructor. We will also train you for the six months up to the new semester. We will not force you to do this. It is your choice. Do you want to help train the next generation of huntsmen" Azure thought for a moment before nodding "Ok. Ill become a teacher and help you find the new riders" He shook Ozpins hand and the two men smiled at each other
Later
Azure decided to return to the book store to deliver the news "EH?! You got a job to teach at Beacon?!" He was taking it well. Tukson sighed at this "If it's your decision I can't stop you. Just promise me you'll at least visit from time to time" Azure smiled and shook his hand "Thank you for everything Tukson. I promise I'll come visit" Azure then left the shop as Tukson smiled "Im gonna miss you kid"
3 months later
How could Azure describe his first few months at beacon? Terrible? Hellish? Every bad adjective you could think of? All of the above. His training was done by Oobleck, who in civilian form had messy green hair with brown. He had a white shirt that was partially tucked into dark-green pants and its collar raised. He also a slack yellow tie along with mismatched brown and black shoes. He also had round glasses that appear to be opaque. 200 push-ups, 200 sit ups, 200 squats and 10 laps around the academy with an hour of sparring in civilian form and every day it increased. Luckily around the second month he had gotten used to this routine and had become really handy with his ridebook in both sword and gun form. Azure looked nearly the same as he did those months ago with the exception of their being more muscle on him.
He had entered the combat room, expecting to see Oobleck, but to his surprise he saw Ozpin there waiting for him. "Its time we began the next part of your training" He said as he attached what appeared to be a red driver around his waist and held up a black rectangle like device and pushed the button
"SKULL!"
"Henshin!" He said as he inserted the device into his driver before turning it
"SKULL!" His form had changed to him wearing black armour around his body with silver accents with his helmet being a silver skull with a crack through the forehead. Unusually his fedora and scarf was still on his head and neck "Hurry up and transform" He said as Azure attached his driver to his waist and pulled out the Decade Card "Henshin!" He then inserted the card into the driver and closed it
"KAMEN RIDE: DECADE!" Azure's armour had formed as Ozpin closed the distance quickly and punched him in the side of his helmet, making him skid back a bit. Decade then charged at Ozpin and threw a punch, which he dodged, before bring his knee up. His knee hit Ozpin in the chin, which made him stagger and Decade quickly went for another punch. However Ozpin quickly reacted by grabbing Azure's arm before tossing him over his shoulder into the ground "You can't defeat me with only decade's form" Decade quickly got up and pulled out a random card from the rider book "Hope this works" He then inserted the card into the driver and closed it
"KAMEN RIDE: KUUGA!" Decade's form had changed to a black bodysuit with red wristbands, a red chest plate with red shoulder pads and a black helmet with red eyes and what appeared to be two gold horns "Woah.. So this is Decades power" He marvelled at the form change for a moment before charging at Ozpin. The two began trading blows as any hit one would throw the other would block. D-Kuuga then tried inserting a new card into the driver and closed it
"FORM RIDE: KUUGA DRAGON!" D-Kuuga's form changed again. Now the parts of his armour that had turned red had become blue and the shoulder pads were gone. Ozpin threw another punch but D-Kuuga quickly dodged the punch before kicking him in the chest and pushed him back "So this form is much faster than the other forms" He theorised as he charged at Ozpin and quickly threw a few punches that hit him, but clearly weren't doing much damage "but it's not as strong" he then took out another card and inserted it into the driver
"FORM RIDE: KUUGA PEAGASUS!" His form changed again. This time parts of his armour had turned green and more armour had appeared on his shoulder. Ozpin went in for another attack but D-Kuuga was able to hit him directly in the chest and tossed him to the other side of the arena. D-Kuuga closed his eyes as he felt the wind shift from his left. He side stepped and tried to attack Ozpin with a spin kick but Ozpin grabbed his leg and pushed him to the ground "Shall we finish this?" Ozpin asked as D-Kuuga pushed him back before transforming back into Decade "You bet!" He shouted as he took out the yellow Decade card and inserted it into his driver as Ozpin took out the black device in his driver and inserted it into a holder on his hip
"FINAL ATTACK RIDE: D-D-D-DECADE!"
"SKULL: MAXIMUM DRIVE!"
Both men jumped up as energy swirled around Ozpin's leg as the large holographic cards appeared in front of Decade. Both men yelled as their kicks collided with each other, However Ozpin's kick was stronger and Decade was blown back before reverting to Azure "ow. That's gonna hurt tomorrow" He said as he stood up as Ozpin's transformation was de activated "Forgive me for being rough. I got too into the fight" He said with a grin on his face "You did well in that fight. I hope you master all of Decade's power" Ozpin said these words as walked out of the arena. Azure sighed before standing up "all of Decade's power huh…" Azure said as he stared at the Decade card
3 months later
Azure was looking over the list of students for this year "Any of these people could be a new rider?" Behind him was Oobleck who nodded "while it might seem unlikely we can't ignore any possibilities" Azure couldn't argue with that logic and stood up "Well I'll just see what the new students are like then" He then left the room
Meanwhile
We cut to a fair-skinned young girl with silver eyes and black, neck-length, choppy hair that gradates to dark red at the tips. Her name was Ruby Rose
She wore a black long sleeved dress with a high collar and red trim on the sleeves, a black waist cincher with red lacing up the front, and around her skirt was a red trim. She also wore a pair of thick black stockings and black combat boots with red laces, red trim around the top and red soles.
She was being hugged tightly by a blonde girl who was her big sister. Her hair flowed in a loose and messy manner and she had lilac eyes along with a pale skin complexion. She was wearing an orange infinity scarf and a tan vest, which had puffy cap sleeves and black cuffs housing small golden buttons. Underneath it was a low-cut yellow tube top underneath, emblazoned with a black burning heart symbol. She was also wearing black gloves underneath yellow gauntlets with black designs. On her bottom was a brown asymmetrical pleated skirt with a white inner skirt and a belt carrying a pouch and a banner emblazoned her symbol in gold. On her feet was a pair of brown leather boots with orange socks each on different lengths with a purple bandana tied on her left one. Her name was Yang Xiao Long
"Oh, I can't believe my baby sister is going to Beacon with me! This is the best day ever!" She exclaimed.
"Yang, stop." Ruby pleaded as she tried to gasp out for an air.
"But I'm so proud of you!" Yang said as she released her sister.
"Really Sis, it was nothing."
"What do you mean? It was incredible! Everyone at Beacon is going to think you're the bee's knees."
"I don't want to be the "bee's knees", okay? I don't want to be any kind of knees! I just want to be a normal girl with normal knees."
"What's with you? Aren't you excited?" Yang wondered why Ruby looked a bit down.
"Of course I'm excited... I just... I got moved ahead two years. I don't want people to think I'm special or anything." She sighed.
Yang wrapped her arm around Ruby's shoulder "But you are special." Their conversation was suddenly interrupted by a holographic screen displaying Vale News Network channel, reporting the latest update on Remnant's phenomenon. The news channel was also displayed a screenshot of the Dust robber Ruby fought, which turned out to be a wanted poster.
" The robbery was led by nefarious criminal Roman Torchwick, who continues to evade you have any information on his whereabouts, please contact the Vale Police Department. Back to you, Lisa."
The screen changed again into the said news anchor-woman. Beside her was a picture of Faunus, humans with animal traits, holding a protest. Each holding "WE ARE NOT ANIMALS!" signs followed by a logo of red glowing wolf head with three scar marks.
"Thank you, Cyril. In other news, this Saturday's Faunus Civil Rights protest turned dark when members of the White Fang disrupted the ceremony. The once peaceful organization has now disrupted..."
The broadcast was soon cut off by a hologram of Glynda Goodwitch.
"Hello, and welcome to Beacon."
"Who's that?" Yang wondered.
"My name is Glynda Goodwitch."
"Oh."
"You are among a privileged few who have received the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy. Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future Huntsmen and Huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it."
" You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world." She said as her hologram disappeared.
As they had reached closer to the Beacon Academy, all of the passengers looked through the glass window, including Ruby, who looked at the town below, followed by Yang.
"Oh, wow! Look, you can see Signal from up here!" said Ruby in amazement.
"I guess home isn't far after all!"
"Beacon's our home now." Yang assured her.
Suddenly, they heard a passenger groaning and hunched over nearby, running to the back of the ship.
"Well…. I guess the view isn't for everyone." Yang said as she rolled her eyes.
"it was a nice moment while it last." Ruby stated. "I wonder who were gonna meet"
Yang rolled her eyes "I just hope they're better than vomit boy
"Oh, Yang, gross! you have a puke on your shoe!" Ruby shouted in disgust.
"Gross, gross, gross, gross, gross, gross, gross, gross!" Yang wailed.
" Get-Get away! Get away from me! Get away from me! Get away from me! Get away from me!" Ruby screamed to push Yang away from her.
As the ship had landed in Beacon, they and the other passengers proceeded to went outside the ship.
"Wow." The three was amazed by Beacon's building.
"The view from Vale's got nothing on this!" Ruby said.
Suddenly, Ruby became that of a starry-eyed floating Chibi figure as she was amazed by the other student's weapons. That also explained why she was etching to become a full fledged Huntress she always wanted to be. Carrying unique weapons as they kill monsters for free.
"Omigosh, sis! That kid's got a collapsible staff! And she's got a fire sword!" she wailed.
As Ruby was trying to get closer to the latter she mentioned, Yang pulled her back before turning back to her original body posture, while she was screaming with an "Ow".
"Easy there, little sister. They're just weapons!"
"'Just weapons'? They're an extension of ourselves! They're a part of us! Oh, they're so cool!"
"Well, why can't you swoon over your own weapon? Aren't you happy with it?" Yang turned back to Ruby.
"Of course I'm happy with Crescent Rose! I just really like seeing new ones. It's like meeting new people, but better..." She replied as she took out her weapon, Crescent Rose, in its Scythe mode.
"Ruby, come on, why don't you go try and make some friends of your own?" Yang wondered, playfully pushing her sister's hood down.
"But… I already have you. Why would I need friends?" she said as she took her hood off.
"weeeeellll.… it just so happens my friends are here. Gotta go catch up. 'Kay see ya, bye!" she bid farewell to Ruby as she was dragged by a group of her other friends.
"Wait, where are you going?! Are we supposed to go to our dorms? Where are our dorms? Do we have dorms?" Ruby wailed as she watched Yang being drifted away.
With Azure
Azure stood in the courtyard looking at the new students to see if they any of them would be a rider. "Hmmm. No-one interesting so far" He continued this until he heard shouting
Back with Ruby
Ruby fell backwards to a luggage cart, sending some suitcases flying.
"What are you doing?!"
She heard a yell from someone who owned the luggage, a girl in white. She had a long white hair that was pulled by an off-center ponytail at a base of a small tiara. She had a pale complexion and icy blue eyes. She was wearing an apple-shaped necklace along with a pair of thin rectangular earrings.
On her torso was a pale blue bolero jacket over a similarly colored thigh-length dress with a piece of black lace making up the dress' neckline. The bolero's inside was red and blue inside the wrists. On its back was a symbol of a snowflake dress. She was also wearing a pair of white, heeled wedge boots that went to mid-calf with the insides were also in red.
"Uh… Sorry!" Ruby apologized as she finally got up.
"Sorry?! Do you have any idea of the damage you could've caused?"
"Uuuhhhh…."
"What are you, brain-dead? Dust, fire, water, lightning, energy!" She yelled as she held out a vial of red Dust, shaking it at Ruby.
"I… I know…" Ruby could hardly spoke from the cough caused by the Dusts that came to her face.
"Are you even listening to me? Is any of this sinking in? What do you have to say for yourself?!" The girl yelled more.
Ruby suddenly sneezed due to the amount of Dust she received. This caused a small explosion in the courtyard they were in.
The explosion was covered in flames, snowflakes and lightning, which was directed at the girl in white. As the eruption ended, a bottle of the Dust vial was seen landing on a feet of a figure. She picked it up as she noticed a certain logo on the bottle.
"Unbelievable! This is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about!" She yelled as she was covered in soot, though it quickly disappeared.
"I'm really, really sorry!" Ruby apologized.
"Ugh, you complete dolt! What are you even doinghere? Aren't you a little young to be attending Beacon?"
"Well, I–I…."
"This isn't your ordinary combat school. It's not just sparring and practice, you know! We're here to fight monsters, so... watch where you're going!" the white girl yelled again.
"Enough" Both heard a yell and saw a man with dark blue hair and green eyes walk up to them "Who are you?" The white haired girl said with a frown on her face. Azure responded by holding up the teaching ID Ozpin gave him "I'm Professor Azure. The new combat instructor" The white haired girl's eyes widened and quickly bowed "I'm so sorry for the commotion" Azure shook his head "I'm not the one who should apologize to" The white haired girl raised an eyebrow as Azure looked at the two girls "both of you apologize to each other" He looked at Ruby "while it's true you were in the wrong for knocking her luggage down" He then turned to the white haired girl "But you are also to blame for escalating the situation" The white haired girl looked like she wanted to argue but held her tongue "Now both of you, shake hands and introduce yourselves"
Both girls looked each other and shook hands "Im Ruby Rose!" Ruby said with a grin "…Weiss Schnee" The white haired girl said. Azure nodded "Good. Well I'll see you two later" Azure left as the two girls stopped shaking hands "I'm so sorry again" Ruby said as Weiss Sighed "I accept your apology" Ruby giggled "Thanks Princess" Weiss's eye twitched at the nickname as a new voice was heard "It's heiress actually."
They suddenly turned to a girl in black and white clothings. She had a long wavy black hair with amber eyes complemented by a light-purple eye shadow flaring backwards and a light skin complexion. On her hair was a black ribbon tied as a bow, and around her neck was a black detached scarf-like collar.
She was wearing a black buttoned vest and a white sleeveless undershirt that exposed parts of her midriff. On her arms were tied black ribbons with a black detached sleeve and a silver band on her left one. She was also wearing white shorts with a zipper on each on its front legs. Along with it were black low-heeled boots that gradually fade to purple as they near her shoes. Outside the stockings were white Belladona flower emblems.
"Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world." She explained.
"Finally! Some recognition!" Weiss retorted.
"The same company infamous for its controversial labour forces and questionable business partners." The girl in black added.
"Wha- how dare you- the nerve of- ugh!" Weiss groaned as she took the bottle of Dust vial from the girl and stormed away in frustration. Her luggage was later carried by her servants.
"I promise I'll make this up to you!" Ruby said to Weiss.
I guess I'm not the only one having a rough first day... So, what's..." She was about to ask the girl in black, but she just walked away without a word.
"Yeah, welcome to Beacon..." she sighed as she collapsed to the ground.
She kept lying on the ground until a shadow was looming over her. It turned out that the shadow came from a blonde blue-eyed teenage boy. He was wearing a white diamond-shaped chestplate and white spaulders with rerebrace.
Underneath his armour was a black hoodie with detached orange sleeves. He was also wearing wrist-length fingerless gloves with a small metal plate on each of its backs. On his bottom were blue pants with a white patch on the left, as well as black high-top sneakers with "Left" and "Right" written on their respective shoe's soles. He was also seen carrying a sheathed sword on his left waist.
"Hey… I'm Jaune." He said as he held out his hands.
"Ruby. Wait, aren't you the guy that threw up on the ship?" Ruby wondered.
A bit later
The two continued their talk while walking alongside the courtyard.
"All I'm saying is that motion sickness is a much more common problem than people let on!" Jaune argued.
"Look, I'm sorry! Vomit Boy was the first thing that came to mind." She laughed.
"Oh, yeah? What if I called you Crater Face?" Jaune's argument made Kyle chuckled a bit.
"Hey, that explosion was an accident!" Ruby argued back.
"Well, the name's Jaune Arc! Short, sweet, rolls off the tongue - ladies love it!"
"Hmm… do they?" Ruby teased.
"They will! Well, I-I hope they will. My mom always says that... Never mind."
"Hey, we all gotta start somewhere, Jaune." Ruby assured.
"Well, I just hope it's not the bad one."
"Don't worry, you're not the only one here."
"So… I got this thing!" Ruby pulled out Crescent Rose in scythe mode as she stabbed it to the ground, causing Jaune to gawk at her.
"Whoa! Is that a scythe?"
"It's also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle!" Ruby added.
"A-wha…?"
"It's also a gun!" she smiled as she cocked her weapon.
"Oh. That's cool!"
"So, what've you got?" Ruby asked.
"Oh! I,uh…. I got this sword!" Jaune said as he unsheathed his sword, followed by Ruby's "Ooohh".
"Yeah, and I've got a shield too!" he then pulled his white scabbard off as he raised his arm and the scabbard expanded itself to become the said shield.
"So, what do they do?" she asked while touching the shield.
"The shield gets smaller, so when I get tired of carrying it, I can just... put it away..." he replied as he shrunk the shield, turning it back to its scabbard mode and placing it to his belt.
"But… wouldn't it weigh the same?" Ruby wondered.
"Yeah, it does." Jaune said dejectedly.
"Well, I'm kind of a dork when it comes to weapons, sooo... I guess I did go a little overboard when designing it." Ruby giggled.
"Wait – you made that!?" Jaune was shocked upon it.
"Of course! All students at Signal forge their own weapons! Didn't you make yours?"
"It's a hand-me-down. My great-great-grandfather used it to fight in the war." Jaune explained.
"Wow, so it means that your sword is a family heirloom, then?" Ruby wondered.
"You could say that."
"Well, I like it! Not many people have an appreciation for the classics these days." Ruby smiled.
"Yeah, the classics…." Jaune muttered as he sheathed his sword.
"Anyways. Why'd you help me out back there? In the courtyard." Ruby wondered as she turned to Jaune.
"Eh, why not? My mom always says, 'Strangers are just friends you haven't met yet.'" Jaune replied as the two started walking again.
"Hey, where are we going?" Ruby wondered about which way they should go.
"I don't know, I was following you guys." Jaune replied.
Ruby and Jane finally made their way to the hall. Inside the building were dozens of huntsmen and huntresses crowding a giant auditorium. As they went inside, they heard Yang's shout from afar.
"Ruby! Over here! I saved you a spot!" Yang shouted as she waved her hands at her sister.
"Oh! Hey, I-I gotta go! I'll see you guys after the ceremony!" Ruby said as she rushed to Yang.
"Hey, wait! Ah, great. Where am I supposed to find another nice, quirky girl to talk to?!" Jaune groaned not noticing a red haired girl staring at him.
Yang grinned at Ruby "How's your first day going, little sis?" Ruby responded with a glare "You mean since you ditched me and I EXPLODED?!" Yang winced a bit "Yikes, meltdown already?" Ruby shook her head "No, I literally exploded a hole in the front of the school! There was some fire and I think some Ice" Yang smirked "Are you being sarcastic?"
Ruby frowned again "I wish! I tripped over some crabby girl's luggage! She yelled at me and I sneezed then exploded and she yelled some more! But then this teacher came along and made us shake hands and she accepted my apology so it wasn't completely bad" She then noticed Weiss behind her and quickly hid behind Yang "I said I was sorry!" Weiss responded by shaking her head "I thought about what the teacher said and he was right. I was partly to blame for escalating the situation. So I won't yell at you more"
She held a pamphlet in front of Ruby's face "Just read this pamphlet if you really want to start making things up to me" She then walked off, making Ruby scratch her head "That wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it was gonna be" Yang smiled at her "So you made a new friend" Ruby shook her head "I don't think "friend" is the right word here"
They were interrupted by Ozpin who was prepping the microphone on the auditorium. Finally, Ozpin proceeded to begin his speech.
"I'll… keep this brief."
"Brief? What's that supposed to mean?" Ruby wondered.
"You have traveled here today in search of knowledge, to hone your craft and acquire new skills, and when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look amongst you, and all I see is wasted energy, in need of purpose, direction."
" You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step." Ozpin finished his speech as he took his leave.
" You will gather in the ballroom tonight; tomorrow, your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed." Glynda said to the audience.
"He seemed kinda… off." Said Yang, wondering about Ozpin's speech.
Even Ruby noticed it too, "It's almost like he wasn't even there."
Later
The night finally came to Beacon, where the students slept at Beacon's ballroom. Among them, Ruby and Yang were already in their pajamas, with Ruby in her black sleeveless shirt with a heart-shaped monster head on it and white pants filled with red dots, and Yang in her bright orange tank top emblazoning her burning heart symbol with black shortpants on her bottom.
Yang was cooing at the boys who were either in their pajamas or even shirtless, but she groaned when she saw Jaune wearing a feetie blue pajamas who waved at her. Seriously, Jaune really had a bad sense of appeal in those pajamas.
Yang then turned at Ruby, who was writing something in a piece of paper, "What's that?"
"A letter to the gang back at Signal. I promised to tell them all about Beacon and how things are going." Ruby said.
"Aw, that's so cuuute!" Yang exclaimed, causing her to got knocked out by a thrown pillow at her face.
" Shut up! I didn't get to take my friends with me to school! It's weird not knowing anyone here!" Ruby shouted, unsure about her acceptance in Beacon.
" What about Jaune? He's... nice! There you go! Plus one friend! That's a hundred percent increase!" Yang cheered.
"I guess" Ruby pondered.
She then continued, "Look, it's only been one day. Trust me; you've got friends all around you! You just haven't met them yet!"
Ruby sighed, "I just wish I could get a good start here…"
The two soon noticed a candle being lit nearby, with the girl in black from before leaning against a wall, reading a book. She was also wearing a black sleeping gown with her bow still on her hair.
Yang, who also noticed the girl, suggested to Ruby "Well, how about starting… from her?"
"Her? Hey isn't she…" Ruby wondered as she stared at the girl.
"You know her?"
" Not really. She saw what happened this morning, but left before I could say anything." Ruby answered.
"Well, what are we waiting for?" Yang said as she grabbed Ruby's arm to drag her into the girl's spot,in which Ruby was struggling desperately before Yang finally let her go.
"Hel-looooo! I believe you two may know each other?" Yang called out to the girl.
" Aren't you... the girl that exploded?" The girl wondered.
" Uh, yeah! My name's Ruby! But you can just call me Crater... " she stopped, still embarrassed over it, until she continued, "Actually, you can just call me Ruby."
The girl went back to her book by replying, "Okay."
Yang, displeased by her sister's unwillingness, whispered at her, "What are you doing?"
"I don't know - help me!" Ruby whispered back as she smiled to the girl again.
Yang finally decided to back her up, " So... What's your name?"
"Blake." She introduced in exasperation.
" Well, Blake, I'm Yang, Ruby's older sister! I like your bow!"
" Thanks!" Blake said irritatedly.
" It goes great with your... pajamas!"
"Right..." Blake simply replied.
There was a bit of a silence, until Yang decided to break it, "Nice night, don't you think?"
"Yes, it's lovely! Almost as lovely as this book! That I will continue to read. As soon as you leave!" Blake bluntly retorted in exasperation towards the siblings.
"Yeah, this girl's a lost cause." Yang said to Ruby.
"What's it about?" Ruby asked Blake about her book.
"Huh?"
"Your book. What's it about?"
"Well... it's about a man with two souls, each fighting for control over his body." Blake explained.
"Oh, yeah... That's real lovely!" Yang sarcastically remarked.
Ruby also talked back, "Well, I love books. Yang used to read to me every night before bed. Stories of heroes and monsters... They're one of the reasons I want to be a Huntress!"
Blake laughed a little by hearing it and asked, "And why is that? Hoping you'll live happily ever after?"
"Well, I'm hoping we all will. As a girl, I wanted to be just like those heroes in the books... Someone who fought for what was right, and protected people who couldn't protect themselves!" Ruby explained.
"That's... very ambitious for a child." Blake said as her smile turned into a frown, "Unfortunately, the real world isn't the same as a fairy tale."
"Well, that's why we're here! To make it better."
"Oh, I am so proud of my baby sister!" Yang said as she lifted Ruby to the air.
"Cut it out!" Ruby said as she struggled by kicking her feet out, which soon evolved into a dust cloud with flying stars and figthing limbs.
The girl in black laughed slightly at it and said, "Well, Ruby, Yang, it's a pleasure to ha-"
Her words soon cut out by a furious Weiss who stormed in to them with her light blue pajamas, "What in the world is going on over here?! Don't you realize some of us are trying to sleep?"
The fight stopped with Ruby trapping Yang's leg, as she and Weiss exclaimed, "Oh. You again." She and yang said while looking at each other
"Shh! Guys, she's right! People are trying to sleep!" Ruby said, backing Weiss up. Weiss nodded at this as the lights went out
Meanwhile
Azure was looking over all the new students files "So any students seem promising?" He asked Ozpin who nodded and handed him eight pictures "These ones especially" Azure looked over the eight pictures and recognized Ruby and Weiss among them "You sure?" Ozpin only nodded as the screen zoomed out revealing the decadriver that then closed
Next time on Remnant Rider:
Ozpin: Now begins the initiation
Ruby: we have to work together
Azure: Wow. They're really good
? : Brother. Look. A rider.
Hey everyone. HOLY CRAP THIS CHAPTER WAS LONG. From explaining Azure's backstory to revealing the power of Decade and the introduction of RWBY. It was crazy. I didn't add the first part with Ruby meeting Ozpin because I didn't want to make the chapter any longer. Plus everyone should know it by now. Okay then. As the chapter stated some characters will become riders and I want you guys to decide. One rule. They have to be Neo-Hesei as the older characters are early Heisei riders. Well good night and message or review on which character is which rider
