Im going to thank the ONE follower who felt it was worthy to follow this story. I wont lie I kind of find his story hard to write mainly because im trying to fit it to be parallel to the event of Rwby proper (to some degree, once we get to volume 2, the fic will take it own direction.) but this is uncharted territory so its not exactly my best to begin with, since I'm still trying to figure somethings out.

This chapter focuses more on the OC team, but still has a bit of the original cast. Funy enough I still havent written a certain cat Faunus into the fic, but not to worry, she will play a VERY important role once we reach a certain episode as well as later down the line.

The next morning Yang found herself in the locker room where every student left his or her weapon for initiation the previous day before the "slumber party" as Yang had put it. To say she was excited was a bit of an understatement. Only the second day at Bean and she was going to be set with her partner for life!

Ok maybe that was a small understatement, but what else could she say to express her emotions. She hadn't felt this excited since the ay she discovered her semblance! Or the day her sister was born. Or the day…. yeah she had quite a few days and the list could go on and on, but lets stop there shall we?

Presently she had just finished strapping her gauntlets on her wrists, waiting for Ruby to grab her weapon from her locker. She almost ignored the sounds of two of her classmates' going past her talking about how they weren't together (not that she cared about learning the specific behind the conversation since she wasn't eavesdropping. it seemed Ruby shared the same sentiment sine she muttered "what are those two are so worked up about?"

Yang turned around deciding to engage her sister in a conversation before they ended up going to the Cliffside "ahh who knows?" she replied cheerfully as she folded her arms, noting her sisters slightly upbeat demeanor compared to the previous day. "You seem awfully chipper this morning. Ruby almost looked like she was going to melt as she finally reached into her locker and grabbed her weapon as she hummed in response. "Yep. No more awkward dialog and getting to know you stuff." She began stroking Crescent Rose like a baby 'Today I let my sweetheart do the talking" she gave a sigh,

Yang bit her lip. She admired Ruby' enthusiasm, but she was still young "as she clearly didn't take into account that she was going to be on a team with several other individuals, all of whom were likely going to be strangers to her. She placed her hands on her hips, giving Ruby a sympathetic smile "Remember Ruby, you're not the only one going through initiation. If you want to grow up you'll need to meet knew people and learn to work together."

Ruby ground, hanging her head "You sound like DAAD!" she muttered in disdain as she placed her weapon back in her locker momentarily before turning to face her sister "First of what does meeting people have to do with fighting and second I don't NEED people to help me grow up! I drink Milk" Yang held back a snort at her sisters words. She seemed so serious when she said that I was hard to remember that Ruby wanted to be a huntress and was still a 15 year old kid that didn't know any better. She definitely had some growing up to do so what type of big sister would she be if she didn't impart some wisdom on the young girl? "What about your teammates?" she asked gently

That seemed to reach Ruby and she looked away uncomfortably before saying "I…. I don't know… I'll be… on your team… I guess…

Yang shifted uncomfortably. She certainly didn't NOT want Ruby on her team but it was like Ruby hadn't listened t anything she said. Besides even then Yang wanted to be on a team with friends, and a certainly multi eye colored hunk…. Even as she thought that she began playing with her hair nervously 'Maybe you should try being on someone else's team!" she said nervously, trying to hide her growing blush.

Ruby seemed to completely miss Yang's thoughts entirely and stomped over to the blonde giving her a fierce look of anger "My dearest sister Yang are you implying you don't wish to be on a team with me?! She snapped.

Uh oh…. Think Yang think! The blonde thought as she fumbled to fin the right words. 'What?! No! I…. Just…" oh god this was harder than she thought. "Think it would help to break you out of your shell!"

What!" Ruby yelped "that's-"

Skylar held back a groan listening to the Blonde Bombshell apparently known as Yang (what he could hear their conversation from across he room, it wasn't like she was being subtle never mind the younger one sounding like she was on steroids, but oh well what could he say. Like Yang had mentioned they weren't the only ones going through the initiation, so unless Ruby ended up as his partner he wouldn't have to worry bout that save for when they had classes or ran into each other every once in a while no that that was a bad thing. After all he was here to make friends, even if most of his energy was spent fighting monsters.

Sighing, Skylar opened his locker and pulled out his sword a large Silver intricately designed sword. A rather peculiar weapon when first noticed. Unlike most swords, the hilt wasn't short but almost the length of the young man's forearm. It was wrapped in a red cloth, likely t0 prevent blisters if Skylar gripped the swords hilt t hard in combat. The blade itself was a different matter entirely, with it being several feet long, the outer edges of the blade were silver much like the handle, with the inner section being red, much likes the cloth on the handle. At the base of the swords blade was a decorative line passing through a circle.

Why Skylar had built such a weapon as a child he wasn't sure. While his parents did teach him the basis of combat, His father had used arm canons, while his mother used gauntlets that had retractable blades that came out of them. Yet even when he designed it, something just told him that it spoke to him.

Skylar attached the sword t his belt, before closing the locker. He knew that the initiation wasn't going to be tough, but he couldn't help but feel something was off about today

"Hey you ok?" a feminine voice asked. Skylar turned towards the sound of the voice and was surprised t see a young woman with short blonde hair and deep aquamarine eyes, with an outfit that remembered an armored tightfitting dress. Her chest and shoulders had white intricately designed pieces of armor that vaguely resembled seashells, while underneath said armor was a indigo colored dress which reach to just above her waist, with the frills being a softer violet and decorated with a blue line going around her skit. Her feet were coverer by what appeared to be high heels, and Skylar could vaguely see armor that may go up into her dress.

All in all, this person looked a lo like a warrior princess. Maybe even a little too literally. Oh well, it wasn't like Skylar to complain about anything as such. He didn't know this girl after all. Might as well change that. Extending his hand the young man introduced himself "Skylar Caelum" he said with a charming smile.

The young woman looked at him, then his extended hand likely assessing the situation, puzzling Skylar. Surely this woman knew how to introduce herself. A moment later the amazon reciprocated the gesture, shaking Skylar's hand gently. "Helen Morcan." She said her voice becoming very smooth and formal.

After a few moments the two let go, with Skylar gesturing around the room "I take it you are prepared for the initiation?" he said.

Helen gave him a grin and pulled out to tonfa's, "Are you?!" she quipped back, giving her weapons a twirl, showing that the could also act as pistols.

Skylar grinned. ""Lets find out!" he said.

Later Skylar stood at the cliffside overlooking the Emerald forest, Helen beside him s well as a young woman with dark hair, excitement bubbling up inside him. Ozpin the headmaster f Beacon, along with the vice headmaster Glynda stood before him and about two dozen other students, mentally preparing them for what was too come

The grey hired man calmly sipped his coffee, before addressing the group."For years, you have trained to become warriors, and today, your abilities will be evaluated in the Emerald Forest."

Well that was to be expected. This was the initiation after all.

Glyndacontinued for the headmaster "Now, I'm sure many of you have heard rumors about the assignment of "teams." Well, allow us to put an end to your confusion. Each of you will be given teammates... today."

Ozpin"That being said, the first person you make eye contact with after landing will be your partner for the next four years. After you've partnered up, make your way to the northern end of the forest. You will meet opposition along the way. Do not hesitate to destroy everything in your path... or you will die.

"Way to provide the Moral Professor," Skylar muttered, glancing at Helen. Other than Yang she was the only person he wanted as his partner at this rate. Also were these two lovebirds or something? They were finishing each other's sentences like a married couple!

"You will be monitored and graded through the duration of your initiation, but our instructors will not intervene. You will find an abandoned temple at the end of the path containing several relics. Each pair must choose one and return to the top of the cliff. We will reguard that item, as well as your standing, and grade you appropriately. Are there any questions?" Ozpin finished

Skylar didn't listen to anything more after that; he was ready for the examination. Holding onto his sword, he braced himself for liftoff from the panel he was n. a moment later he took off soaring into the sky like a bird.

Meanwhile Yang watched as Skylar was thrown in the air trying to see where he was going to land. Like a predator watching his prey, she determined is trajectory so that he could follow him, and make him…. hers.

After several minutes of flying through the air, Skylar began his fast descent towards the canopy of the forest. Curling into a ball, the young man increased his falling speed as he approached the foliage, while also grabbing his sword. He crashed through the leaves of the trees, keeping an eye out for any thick branches or trunks. Calculating the necessary preparations, Skylar took his sword and stabbed his sword into the nearest truck, immediately stopping any momentum his fall had created. This unfortunately caused Skylar to lose al the air in his lungs from the sudden stop, almost making him lose his grip on his weapon, but he held firm, gaining ground before he twisted his body so his feet were on the trunk he was presently attached too, before push off of it, taking his sword with him and summersaulting towards the forest floor at a much more controllable rate, before landing on his feet, completely unharmed. Standing straight, Skylar briefly looked at his handiwork, before walking towards the north, where the relics, and his partner would be waiting for him.

On the other side of the forest, Helen Landed on a branch, sturdy enough to hold her, before se jumped off, landing on the ground, before standing up and getting her bearings. Clearly she was in the lush forest, but she kind of lost her sense of direction whilst trying to land. Needless to say she was kind of lost.

However before she could take a step in any direction, she heard a rustle in the bushes behind her

Helen quickly whipped out a pistol, aiming it at the bush ready to fire at any sign of Grim, unfortunately for her, what she was about to see was far worse than anything she could imagine.

Instead of a Grimm, out popped a suave nicely dressed young man, whose cloths vaguely resembled that of a butlers, including a buttoned up shirt, but far more armored, having a vest that looked more appropriate for a solider, though more ornately designed to fit with the butler theme of his outfit, but much like Helen, wore combat boots.

His hair was messy and brown almost shoulder length, with dark brown eyes and a very attractive face, if Helen was any other girl. Unfortunately for this young man, he was not…

"Paris!?" She snapped, her voice rising several decibels as she shrieked in displeasure.

Paris blinked surprised to see the last person he suspected to be his partner here of all places. Well it wasn't like they hadn't met before, since there was that slumber party the night before. That's where the two had met unfortunately, and needless to say, Helen was not amused

Despite this Paris gave the young woman a sly grin "Oh Hello darling" he quipped, wriggling his eyebrows up and down.

Helen growled, pointed her pistol at Paris's foot and fired a warning shot, causing Paris to yelp in surprise and jump back out of instinct to avoid being hit.

Groaning, Helen turned and walked away from her now partner. OF all the people to be stuck with!

She could only hope that Skylar wasn't so unlucky.

Gripping his sword by his side, Skylar stood in the middle of a clearing within he forest, concentrating all his senses on listening to even the slightest of movement. After walking for what seemed like ages, he still hadn't found anyone to be his partner, nor did he hear anyone else around that he could tag along with until he did find a lone student. If only Ozpin had a better way to determine whom would become partners, then he would be able to avoid….

A twig snapped underneath a foot, causing Skylar to turn around in the direction of the noise. He hadn't even moved so that definitely wasn't him.

It was the growls that tipped him off to the presence of Grimm before he saw the blood red eyes peering from the bushes, dripping with a savage blood lust. Then came the front left paw, and then the right as a massive beowolf emerged from the foliage growling in fury. It looked directly into Skylar's eyes, before pouncing, las extended and ready to kill.

Skylar jumped forward, and before the beowolf could strike, Skylar slashed at the beowolf, slicing through its body in one foul stroke, sending the malevolent beast to the underworld.

"Waste of effort." Skylar muttered as he began to walk in his original direction, unaware of another pair of red eyes in the bushes until he heads the blood curdling roar directly behind him. Turning, he was met with the sight of another Beowolf inches from his location. Acting quickly, Skylar leaped and rolled out of the way, narrowly missing the Grimm's claws. On his knees now, Skylar shot the grim a glare, as it turned and raced toward him. However before the grim could strike again, a dagger flew from the thicket behind the young man, striking the Beowolf in the eye, killing it instantly. The corpse fell to the ground in a heap in front of Skylar, who took a moment to look at it before standing and turning to see his savior.

A young woman with long black hair in a ponytail and dark green eyes stood before him. Unlike Helen, this woman's clothing her less modest, with her top being a grey crop top showing some amount of cleavage with an intricate black scarf holding the top up with the other end wrapped around her neck. Her pants were black with grey chaps that end at her calves and an overlong belt, twice wrapped with a pouch by her side most likely where se kept her weapon.

The young woman walked past Skylar almost ignoring him and she grabbed her dagger from the Beowolf corpse yanking it free and gingerly shaking the blood off of it. Afterword's she sheathed her weapon and turned towards Skylar giving him a pointed glare "Are you going to stand there or are we going to go after the relic?" she asked harshly, though her voice suggested she was teasing him.

Skylar didnt respond looking at his new partner up and down... Even taking away from the fact her outfit would make most mens blood boil, she was actually cute. "Skylar Caelum" he said with a smile.

The young woman retuned his smile "Robin Grayson" she responded.

That wraps up the introductions for the team this story focuses on! Future chapters will fill in on their backstories and each member will have SOME sort of connection to the main RWBY cast or one of the supporting characters. Please leave your thoughts or any ideas,
