Chapter 2
Initiation
Nion slowly woke up with the sun shining in her eyes. Her body was being shaken as she looked up to the person shaking her.
"Time to get up." A purple haired girl told her as she stopped shaking her.
Once her vision came back from the blinding light of the sun, she saw Dusk shaking her, "Morning.."
Dusk smiled softly and stood up. She put a hand towards Nion as Nion takes her hand and stood up. Dusk's hair was in a side ponytail, tied up by a pink ribbon. Nion stretched out and groans.
"What do we have to do today? What's the initiation or team building thingie?" Nion asked as she yawned out
"Well first, we need to get breakfast. Then we will be told by my au-by Winter where we need to go." She hesitated during the sentence.
Nion paid no attention to the hesitation as her mouth waters, "Food..."
Dusk giggled and started to lead Nion to the line where the food was being served. She sniffed the air as she murred out. Fooooooddddddd Nion's stomach growled as she forgot to eat last night. She was very hungry as she tried reaching ahead of Dusk to get food. Dusk lightly batted her hand away as she giggled.
"look like someone forgot to eat," She chuckled and grabbed two bags, one for herself and one for the hungry friend.
Nion reached out for her bag and grabbed it. There was a breakfast burrito, chocolate milk, and a pear. She reached inside and grabbed the breakfast burrito as she started to eat it. Not as bad as I thought. Never had one before. Nion smiled brightly after taking the first bite as Dusk giggled watching her. The two friends started to eat as the two other girls from last night that Nion saw, sat next to Dusk and Nion. Nion looked toward the girl reading a book.
"Hi, my name is Nion Birnan." Nion said to the girl smiling.
The girl looked over and smiled softly, "My name is Peridot Nikos. This my friend, Lilac Gwendolen. She doesn't talk much."
Dusk chuckled, "That's fine. My name is Dusk Schnee-Rose. A pleasure to meet you two."
Lilac just simply nodded and ate her apple.
Dusk turned towards Peridot, "What's your semblance and weapon?"
"I can control plants up to...30 meters? Yeah, 30 meters and I use a staff-rifle." Peridot spoke softly as she smiled
Lilac sighed, "My semblance is weird. I use knives."
Nion scratched her head, "Mine...is weird as well heh..."
Dusk nods and rolls her eyes, "Don't worry about if it's weird or not. Be proud of the power you have. I am able to blink about 120 meters in my line of sight, but the farther I blink, the more aura it takes. I also use a scythe-dmr called Night's Rose."
The black haired girl sighed softly, "My semblance is that I'm able to stop time for a short amount of time. Up to thirty seconds. For inside, the time stops in the room. For outside, 30 meters in every direction of me."
Nion continued to scratch her head, "Mine is really a show and not really tell the type of semblance..it's hard to explain hah..."
They nodded as they all finished their food. After that, the bell rang as Winter's voice came over the intercom.
"Please report to the fields for your team assignment." She said as the intercom shut off
The four new friends all stood up as they went towards the fields in silence. I wonder who my team will be. It would be cool if it was these girls, we already know a little about each other and we might be able to work well together. Hopefully... Nion thought to herself as she stayed behind the three girls that she had met.
All the students arrived at the fields as Winter Schnee stood in front of them all. She had her hands behind her back as coughed.
"Ahem..this is your team coordinator, Dawn. He will be explaining what you will be doing and how teams will be formed. Well, at least the partner system." Winter spoke loud enough so everyone could hear. She then was replaced by a monkey Faunus, with his tail swaying behind him with red hair and green eyes.
"My name is Dawn Caster. You can refer to me as Dawn, I don't mind that one bit. Today you will be going into this forest behind me and searching for chess pieces." He held up a knight chess piece and showed them the bottom of the pieces. That one had a colored dot on it. "Each of these chess pieces will have a colored dot on the bottom of it. These will dictate who will be on your team. So let's say, Mrs. Schnee, Mr. Solas, Mrs. Rose, and I all got a chess piece with a red dot on it. We would all be a team together, but if three of us got the same color, but one of us didn't. We would have to look for the person with our color. If you can find your team in the forest less work for me. Once you find the chess pieces, you must return to here. There will be grimm out there, so tread carefully...You are dismissed...oh wait! The first person you see in the wild is your partner. The first color you find is the color you have to look for your team. Good luck."
All the students looked down and cursed as they got sent up into the air unexpectedly. Nion was laughing like a maniac as she found this fun. Dusk was readying her scythe so she can land safely. Peridot scanned the floor for flowers to catch herself with. Lilac was looking around as she kept her beanie on as she dug a knife into a tree and fell down to the floor. Nion grabbed onto a branch as she fell down, losing sight of everyone. She looked around as she didn't spot anyone so she started to jog
