After the plane had descended, a blonde haired male rushed to the nearest trash can and emptied out whatever he ate. Tails made his way over to the grass area and proceeded to unscrew the bolts on the muzzle.

"So, finally here at Beacon Academy, and one step closer to becoming a hunter. I gotta say, I'm a little nervous about being here." Tails said.

"(Why?)" Rojas asked. "(You were the top student in Master Xiao-Hong's class and you recieved training from the professors here. Heck, we were fighting along side them since you were 11. Not to mention your lessons with the Dusty Old Crow.)" Rojas said, referring to Qrow Branwen. Qrow was another teacher of Tails. The one who taught him how to use that Single edged sword that was on his back, as well as a scythe.

"Not that kind of nervous. The excited kind of nervous." Tails said. He was halfway done with unscrewing the muzzle.

"(Oh.)" Rojas replied. Tails unscrews the other screws and takes off the muzzle. Rojas then trails his red eyes to the leash.

"(What about the leash?)" Rojas growled out.

"The leash stays on. It'll be a safety precaution." Tails said. Rojas began to whimper a little.

"(You know I won't hurt anyone unless you told me to.)" Rojas whimpered.

"I know, but I'd like to make sure no one attempts to take your life. The students here aren't exactly educated on you being my companion." Tails explained. Rojas whimpered and nudged Tails with his head.

"(Please?)"

"Sorry Rojas, but safety first. I'll take it off when we get settled in okay?"

"(Okay.)" Rojas whimpers. An explosion goes off and startles the two.

"(What was that?)"

"Let's find out." Tails said. He grabbed hold of Rojas's leash and lead him towards the explosion.

Upon arriving to the scene where they heard the explosion, they see a girl lying on the ground with a look of disbelief.

Tails looked around to see if anyone was around. No one was around, so Tails began to wonder what exactly caused it. Regardless, this girl was obviously upset.

"Welcome to Beacon..." The girl said. She continued to lay there until Tails's shadow casted over her. She opens her eyes to see the twin tailed fox offering his hand. Her eyes widened a little. Signaling that this was the first act of kindness since she was here.

"I'm Tails." Tails introduced as the girl sat up.

The girl smiles, causing Tails to notice her silver eyes for a brief second before she took his hand. As Ruby stood up she looked at Tails and was left in an awkward silence with him before making the poor attempt to start a conversation. "So... You like red?"

The two began to walk after that terrible attempt at starting a conversation.

"So, a 10 foot beowolf with a black mask that I'm currently leading with a leash, and you ask me on my personal taste? I'm flattered." Tails said, adding a teasing smile.

"Gah!" Ruby's cheels turned the same color as her hood. "Hey, I'm not good at talking to people... or Anthros."

"That's okay, I'm a bit of the anti social type myself."

"I'll have you know that I happen to be plenty socialist." Ruby pouted.

"Social." Tails corrected.

"What are you, the grammer police?"

"Detective Dictionary at your service." Tails joked. Ruby giggled a little at that. The giggle drove a question in to his brain that would bug him until the end of time unless he asked.

"Hey, Ruby?"

"Hmm." She asked with a smile.

"How old are you?" Tails asked. Ruby was a little taken back at the question, but only for half a second.

"I'm Fifthteen." She giggles nervously. "I guess I don't pass off as a seventeen year old do I?"

"I'm not seventeen either Ruby, so you're not alone."

"You're not?" Ruby asked. She was competely thrown off by the statement, considering the twin tailed fox's height. He was literally a foot and an inch taller than her, and that was minus the 5 inch tall ears. Then a question drilled its way into her head.

"Older or Younger?" She asked.

"Younger, sixteen."

"Whoa. You must be a skillful fighter." Ruby complimented.

"As are you. Ozpin doesn't just let anyone in to his academy two years early."

"Thanks." Ruby once again blushes at the compliment. Before another silence hits them.

"So... I've got this thing." Ruby said pulling out a scythe. She spun it a little as if to show off a bit before stabbing it into the ground. "This is Cresent Rose."

"Impressive Scythe, and it suits you. I'm guessing you made it yourself?"

"Yep, designed by yours truly, with blood, sweat, and crumbs." Ruby said as she hugged her weapon.

"Crumbs?"

"Yea. I ate a lot of cookies while I was building this." Ruby admitted. "I'm still finding crumbs in or on this thing."

"(She's a strange one.)" Rojas grunted as Tails snickered.

"So what do you got?" Ruby asked in an attempt to get off of the crumb topic.

Tails pulled his pants legs up revealing his metallic boots.

"These are the Blood Eclipse. They can fire normal bullets, or I can infuse them with dust for an extra punch." Tails said as he released his pants legs. Then he grabbed the handle of his sword and took it off his back. He spun it a few times before settling it in his left hand.

"And this is Dusty Crow."

"(Dumb name.)" Rojas said.

"Not a dumb name Rojas." Tails replied before realizing how dumb he looked talking to his beowolf companion. "Anyway, this is my secondary weapon that I use when I wanna go easy on someone. And as if that wasn't enough, I can transform this weapon into any weapon I'd like."

"That's sooo awesome!" Ruby said as her eyes shined on Tails's sword. Tails puts the sword back on his back.

"You've got three weapons!" Ruby squealed.

"I wasn't aware." Tails chuckled causing Ruby's face to turn red again.

"Sorry, I'm just really into weapons." Ruby admitted.

"I think you're gonna do great here." Tails said with a smile.

"Really?" Ruby asked. She was answered with a nod. "Thank you." Her cheeks began to turn a deep shade of red. She had not only met an awesome fox, but she met one that believes she'll do great here.

She stopped for a moment and looked at Tails's face. The hair that went over his eye gave her a mysterious vibe, but a good kind of mysterious. The kind Ruby found attractive. Especially Tails's baby blue eye. This antropomorphic fox was a looker. A good looker.

"Ruby?" Tails called, snapping Ruby out of her daze.

"Huh?! What?! Where?! Who?!"

"You stopped. The Courtyard. Tails." Tails listed.

"Oh." She said, flushing in embarrassment.

"I was unintentionally following you, but the entrance is this way. Come on." Tails said, adding a friendly, yet sheepish smile. Ruby quickly joins him. As the walked, one more question found its way into his brain.

"Ruby?"

"Hmm?"

"Was that you who caused the explosion?"

After an awkward silence, all Ruby could do was nervously chuckle.

"Welp, that answers that. Come on Crater-Face." Tails teased.

"Hey!" Ruby exclaimed.

And that ends the chapter.

Rate, Review, and Favorite. You won't regret it. Until next time.

Also, what do you think Tails is hiding under his hair. Maybe the previous chapter could give a clue? Hmm? Write your theories in either the review or pm me. You might be correct.

Peace out!
