Chapter 3
Beacon Academy, the most prestigious school in Vale.
The epitome of academia, the foremost in learning…
Clique central.
Like all schools, there was the nerd group, the jock group, the popular group…
Then the Light Club, Beacons own elitist students, almost like a Cult most of the time. You either had to be born to riches, be liked by the entire school, or kiss serious ass to get in.
The King and Queen of the L.C., Weiss Schnee and Cardin Winchester, pretty much ruled with an iron fist. Even though they weren't actually in any relationship, being friends, as well as heirs to the wealthiest families in 3 territories, made them near untouchable by authorities, both legal and academic.
Yang looked around the main courtyard, noticing signs and posters for extracurricular events, namely the drama department's adaption of Monty Oum's 'Salem', starring Coco Adel, Cardin Winchester, and… Pyrrha Nikos.
That name… That girl.
Sudden memories flooded her mind.
Pyrrha throwing the metal disc like it was nothing
Pyrrha grabbing her hand as they fled down the stairs
Pyrrha's eyes looking her over as she drove her home…
A slight warm feeling spread through her chest as she remembered that last bit.
'What the… Where'd that come from?' She thought, raising an eyebrow at her own mind.
She spotted her friends Blake and Ren sitting at a table nearby, apparently playing Dragons and Dungeons or something.
Before she could move towards them, a scuffle at the main doors caught her attention.
"I know you're the 'King of Rich', Winchester… but that barely makes you a good person."
"Aww… did the little jock girl take too much testosterone?" Came the snide answer.
'A Winchester picking a fight. That's a new one.' She thought sarcastically.
Cardin Winchester was bigger, brawny, and apparently dumb as a sack of bricks… he'd just challenged Nora Valkyrie, captain of the co-ed football team, to a fight.
Being the first female captain of the Beacon Football Team, the Valiants, was no easy task… but Nora more than made up for her smaller stature with crazy strength and stamina… and a surprisingly fast mind to boot.
Winchester and Valkyrie continued to bicker as Yang watched.
Blah Blah, your daddy, blah blah… For as smart as Nora was… she wasn't really making any headway in the argument. Pretty much the only thing you could make fun of with a Winchester was his all-powerful daddy and his empty head.
The fight lasted a few minutes, before the schools student security behemoth, Yatsuhashi Daichi, stepped in, separating the two quickly.
Easily big enough to take on Nora sitting on Cardin's shoulders, both students wisely backed away.
Yang, her amusement gone, continued to the table, joining her friends.
Sure enough, Blake and Ren were playing their roleplaying game… Yang elected not to join, however. She wasn't one for extensive imagination.
"So… I heard you went out with Pyrrha Nikos last night." Blake said. Straight and to the point… pretty much the only thing about Blake that was indeed straight.
'That was cruel' Yang thought to herself.
"Do you know… if she likes these kinds of games?" Blake asked.
Ren shot her a knowing smirk.
Seems like Beacons resident gothic ninja had a crush.
"I don't know… not like we really hung out. We were together for, like, ten minutes."
Blake shrugged her shoulders, giving the generic 'oh well' face, before looking back at the game.
"Want to play this D&D game?" Ren asked.
"Nah, I don't think the author knows how to write a game like that." Yang answered, smirking.
"What?" Blake asked.
"It's a joke. I have to get to Chemistry… I'll catch you guys later."
"Oh… Okay. Tell Pyrrha I said hi!"
"…Will do."
Yang said, turning away toward the main doors.
She absorbed herself in her own thoughts over last night once again, not paying much attention to where she was going until a flash of red caught her attention.
A flash of red right infront of her.
"Yang? That's your name, right?" Pyrrha asked.
She was waiting infront of the double doors.
For her?
"Hehe, yeah… don't wear it out…?" She answered unsurely.
"Ok cool…. Another question: Do you… Do you want to skip school, maybe?" Pyrrha asked, this time she seemed unsure.
"What? Why? Like… you're the star student? Why skip school?" Yang said, trying to wrap her mind about this sudden shift in academic personality.
"Eh… One day isn't gonna change my life. Let's go!" Pyrrha said, grabbing Yang's hand and pulling her down the stairs.
'Man… I was actually ready for school this time… Aw fuck it.' Yang said before regaining her balance and following the red headed mystery.
