A.N- Well, i can figure out how the damn poll works. So im just going to write smaller chapters, but i can also work at school now too. Anyways i want to say that i have an amazing editor, Operator Blake 'Roxasrock. You have probably read his storys and if not stop reading this and read his stuff. Its amazing. Anyways that means that i will get chapters out but i will be updating them once when he gets around to editing my stuff, cause he has his own stuff. Now, enough of this A.N, heres the story!


I made my way too the cliff with Crocea Mors in hand. I walked off towards the cliff where everyone was meeting and heard two people yelling. 'Who is that? I thought I was early' I silently made his way up the cliff until I hid behind a tress. I made sure that I was out of sight from their eyes, breathing slowly so they couldn't hear, even if they were a Faunus. Ozpin and Glynda were the two people having a heated conversation "I told you I know everything that goes on in this school"

"YOUR INVADING PERSONAL PRIVACY! YOU DONT INSTALL CAMERAS IN. THE. LOCKER ROOMS!" 'What are they talking about?'

"A necessary evil, but look at what we just found out. Miss Belladonna is a Faunus, and I'll have to ask mister Knight why Ruby and Yang walked away from him." 'WHAT! THE CAMERAS SAW BLAKE AND I?!'

"OZPIN THATS NOT THE POINT! YOU DONT"

"The safety of the school is my priority, if I have to bend a few laws to attain that, I will without question." Ozpin put his mug down and stared at Glynda. I could tell that they were testing which one would break first.

Glynda was the first to bend "We will talk about this later, for now how do you think Jaune figured out about the test? He knew about everything we have planned, are we going to switch them now?"

"No it's too late now; he IS a very interesting character. So is Blake. Do you remember anything about either of them that stands out?"

"Well mister Knight doesn't seem to know anything about girls." 'Well that was uncalled for' "Wait...he did ask me if your speech was from the last head master. I said yes, would that count?"

"Yes it would, this is very interesting. I think this year will turn out much better than expected" Ozpin replied "But I think we should just ask him ourselves, will you come down Mister Knight?"

'Well, I'm screwed'


"Mister Knight, you are one lucky person" Ozpin said while drinking from his mug

'I am?' "I am?"

"Yes, because we will ask you about all your powers after initiation, because the other students are going to arrive at any minute. Now, you will be allowed to find miss Belladonna, actually how about we bend the rules instead of breaking them and I will make it easier for you. I will make sure that you two are on launch pads next to each other, because I know how hard it is to be a Faunus. I can tell you like Faunus and that you will treat her with the respect she deserved. But both of you will come and talk to me after the teams are arranged, understand?" Ozpin sipped from his damn mug again. 'What's in that mug, coffee? A liquid that makes it so he can use 100% of his brain all of the time? My god, he is smart'

"How did you find me?"

"That's your question, really" Glynda asked when she recovered from her shock of hearing Ozpin's speech.

"It's a valid question Glynda. I saw you in the corner of my eye when Glynda and I" he sipped from his mug, and I could almost see his damn smirk "were having our staring match. Now go on and talk to Phyrra, I know you helped her before"

"How?" I asked amazed, I had never seen someone with this much knowledge before.

"I am the head master of this school, and I need all the power I can get. Never forget Jaune" he lowered his mug from his face and looked straight into my eyes "Knowledge is power. Now go and mingle." And he brought the mug back up to his face and took a sip.


I saw that a few people started to trickle in along with Cardin and his goons as well as Phyrra. "This is it Jaune, today is the day we prove ourselves."

"Yeah, it is" I was still shocked from my conversation with Ozpin from before

"Something troubling you?"

"Yes, but I don't want to talk about it, is that ok? So, are you going to take up Weiss"

"Sure Jaune, actually I was hoping to get paired up with you, or at least on your team."

"That would be nice, but like I said last time I wanted to be with a specific person. But I would love to be on the same team as Phyrra Nikos." I said goofily as I bowed when I said her name. She giggled and put her hand to her face.

"Thanks, so do you have any idea about what initiation is going to be."

"No" 'I don't think Ozpin would like it too much if I told everyone what's about to happen.'

"That's a bummer. Now, have you seen any major Grimm?"

"I may have saw a pack of Ursa, does that count?"

"Yes, that's valuable info Jaune. You know what they say about information right?"

'Wow, that's just annoying' "Knowledge is power, I know." I said in an annoyed tone.

"So, you won a tournament or something?"

"Yeah, the mistral tournament. Most people know of it, but I guess you don't."

"My fault Phyrra, was isolated with my family until around 15."

"Its fine, I actually prefer it to be honest" She replied to me sheepishly.

"Why is that?"

"Because when someone puts you on a pedestal by yourself, its very hard to make friends or any long lasting relationships. They all think that I'm already better than them."

"That's stupid" I put it bluntly "If I never met you then I wouldn't put you on a pedestal. I mean if I knew you were a tournament winner you would be talented yes, but you could be a snotty bratty girl, like Weiss" We both chuckled as I took a breath and continue "but now that I met you, I'm happy to say I want you to be my friend" I smiled goofily as I put out my hand toward Phyrra's and waited for her to give me a fist bump. She laughed and then extended her hand to me and I exploded and she then laughed even louder. I saw Blake coming up the hill and decided to tell her the grim news.

"Bye Phyrra, see you later. Good luck!"

"Bye Vomit Boy!"

"NOT YOU TOO!"


"Hey Jaune, how's it going?"

"Ozpin knows everything we said in the locker room" I put it bluntly

"I'm goo- WHAT! HOW!?" Some people started to look this way, so I needed her to calm down.

"Calm down Blake, we don't want to attract any attention."

"Jaune, I'm scared" I looked into her eyes and felt fear, more so than I have ever felt before. It made me feel like hiding in a corner for the rest of my life, it was almost like I could see the fear. Within it I could feel the pain of being beaten and ridiculed and saw a glimpse into what Blake's life was like before Beacon.

"It's ok Blake; he's not like many people that hate Faunus. He wants an explanation from both of us, about you past, and how I knew everything about the test. He will help us become partners though."

"I'm not going to talk about my past" the feelings she gave off were so hard to deal with, I felt like hugging her right then and there.

"We'll cross that bridge when we get to it, alright?"

"Fine, I'm going to sit and think for a while. I'll see you in a bit." She turned and walked away from me, leaning on the tree I was hiding behind before 'How much irony can happen in one day?'


More students started to trickle in and I could see Yang and Ruby arguing.

"Let's just make a deal to try and find each other!"

"Ruby you need to be with people you don't know!"

"STOP SOUNDING LIKE DAD!"

"CALM DOWN, BOTH OF YOU!" I yelled as I let some aura trickle out. 'I realize that I'm screwed and will have to tell Ozpin eventually, so I might as well use most of my powers, right?' I thought trying to convince myself of my decision. The air around me turned slightly colder; maybe a tenth of a degree but Ruby and Yang both felt it. They both stopped talking and looked at me. "Ruby, yang is right. No arguing" before yang could stick her tongue out I said "But that doesn't mean you shouldn't be on Yang's team Ruby. You need to work well with your team and I'm guessing you two work very well together. So a compromise for both is that you are both on the same team and Ruby has a different partner. Or Ruby you can be with me, that is if you got to choose." I let my aura dissipate and the air went back to normal.

"Ok" they said at the same time with sullen voices 'probably don't want me to get angry'

"So" Ruby started saying "what do you mean if we get to choose? And how do you do the temperature thingy?"

"You will find out eventually"

"Come on vomit boy tell us" she said her hips walking seductively towards me, showing a bit more cleavage than normal

"Yang, what are you doing?"

"Oh, nothing" She said while she put her arms around my neck and gave me a wink. I could feel the jealous states of many guys wanting what I had, while I felt my own face heat up. She then went in my ear and whispered "don't worry Jaune, I'll defiantly said your real name tonight" and I couldn't handle it. My was mouth was stuck, and my eyes spaced out. "I think..broke him Rubes" and indeed she did, as I could only make out a little bit of the conversation

"Yang! Why...you always...this to...friends."

"I didn't know...will...so strong his...would break" I started to recover from my "paralysis" and made out most of their words from then on.

"I wanted to know what he knew about initiation...you not?"

"Well I did but I didn't want...break him" as I recovered all cognitive function, I started to speak

"Never again" I huffed out because speech was still hard for me at this point.

"Don't worry Jaune, I was just saying the tr-" that's when Ruby put her hand over Yang's mouth.

"I'll take her away Jaune, we'll see you in a bit" Ruby said as she walked off holding Yang's ear with Yang begging her to stop the entire time


I walked around to take the scenic view, I saw someone in pink imitating an animal. I walked over behind the girl in pink and asked "is that a sloth?"

"SEE REN! I TOLD YOU!" The girl in pink yelled at the boy with green clothes but pink eyes who was apparently Ren. "WHATS YOU'RE NAME?" She asked in the most bubbly voice I have ever heard

"Jaune Uhhhhhhhh Jaune-"

"That's a weird name but ok Jaune-Jaune"

"My names not j-"

"Just leave it, it won't help with Nora. Like she said before everyone calls me Ren. Full name is Lie Ren though. What's your actual name?"

"Jaune Knight" I said although I did get some protests from Nora

"So, what do you think is going to happen at initiation" Ren asked me while I was trying to tell Nora my real name even though Ren told me to just give up.

"Oh I don't know" I turned to him and he looked away 'there's no way he's doing that, is there?' "So, how do you deal with Nora?"

"Many many years of practice" we both chuckled while Nora pouted "So, why did you want to go to Beacon?"

I decided to answer with a partial truth "I wanted to fix the world, get rid of the Grimm"

"All by yourself?" He seemed very calm. 'He is different, if I think I'm right then he's trying to psycho analyze me. That's probably how he deals with Nora; I'll have to be careful around him"

"No, I'll need friends to help me"

"Your goal is a very good one, I will make sure that I help you with it" and he gave a me a slight nod over to professor Ozpin and Professor Goodwitch who started to gather everyone for initiation.


I lied. A.N i wanted to make Ren and Nora meet Jaune before they got launched off but its kinda hard for me to write them. Any reviews on how to write them would be great, thanks!
