I exited the aircraft beside my sister passing a blonde boy pucking his guts out in a garbage can. I had to plug my sensitive nose to stop from gaging at the smell. We speed up our pass to get out of range of the smell and sounds as fast as possible.
"Wow, so this is Beacon." I said in amazement looking up at the impressive building before us. "View from Vails got nothing on this." "Yeah." I said slightly breathless as I looked up at the academy, it was massive, no massive was an understatement for what this was. "You happy?" She joked grabbing my hood as it started to slip off my head as my ears twitched in excitement. "I am." I smiled up at her. She stood an inch taller then me with my heels on.
"So are you ready to make some new friends?" She asked me excitedly. "Why would I want to do that already have you?" and Cinder, Roman didn't count because he's my significant other so he wasn't just a friend like Cinder or Yang. Although Yang was my sister but if I counted Yang as my sister and Roman as my significant other that would mean I only had one friend, Cinder, and that just sounded sad. So Yang would stay counted as a friend so I didn't sound to sad. "Well actually my friends are here now sorry got to go bye." She rushed off with a group of people leaving me alone before I could say or do anything to prevent her sudden departure.
I sighed she means well but she doesn't know the whole story I don't want friends if I had friends I would only get hurt when they found out where my allegiances lie. She will eventually leave me, my own sister I knew she would Yang was a huntress through and through and she loved that job even though she was only a student there was no way she would leave it just because of what I was, because of what I stood for. We would become enemies I knew it deep down not that I would admit it, it hurt too much just to think that my very own sister who I loved would leave me, but I knew my whole family would one day I just hope they'll one day understand why I'm doing what I am. I'm not evil nor is my cause, but they wouldn't be able to understand that. At least not yet. I shook my head to disperse my thoughts, I was determined to enjoy myself today.
Turning around I almost walked straight into a luggage trolley. "What the heck are one of these doing here?" I questioned myself confused by its sudden appearance behind me. "Careful do you know how much damage you could cause if you knock one of those over." A sharp voice snapped. "huh?" I turned again to you see a white haired girl and a short combat dress at her side a sword, a variety of different dust cartridges attached to the hilt. "Inside of those cases are dust purified by the Schnee corporation, be careful if not treated right it could do some major damage." "Ok". I put my hands up in mock surrender not wanting her to angrier with me. "Well I need to be going now, so bye" I pulled a Yang and using my semblance disappeared in a burst of speed leaving behind a trail of rose petals. The last thing I need was start my first day at Beacon with was a fight with the Schnee heiress.
I knew who that girl was even though I didn't get her name she was Weiss, Weiss Schnee the heiress to the Schnee dust company. The same company known for its controversial workforces, and questionable Business partners her company is one of the ones that the White Fang has been targeting, what they were doing is not right using us fauna the way they did. I didn't want to get into it with her though, I don't want anyone to know who I am, not that I'm a fauna. At least not at the moment, I wasn't a fool I knew sooner or later my race would be reveal whether by choice or not I did not know.
Passing by a girl with long raven locks a black bow on her head and her nose in a book I smelt a cat, a cat fauna hidden behind her bow would be a pair of kitty ears if I I chose to look. I recognized her as a member of White Fang her name was Blake Belladonna and she was someone I knew from the White Fang. The two of us whereby very close but she was a good person, at least I wasn't going to be alone here I thought as I ran past her.
After a short search I found auditorium where everyone was gathering. I spotted Yang's head of a bright yellow hair and headed over to her. "Yang" my tone was serious and my arms were crossed as I approached her. "Ruby" she sounded nervous as she should be after ditching me like she did. "So how's it going little sis?" "Well" my tone was dangerous even to my own ears. "I bumped into some girls luggage and hand to listen to her yell at me before I could get away." "Yikes is she all right?" she tried to add some humor to the situation with that comment but it wasn't helping.
"You!" I visibly jumped at the loud voice next to my sensitive ears making me jump into my sisters already waiting arms, ever since we were little when every loud noise this occurred I always ended up jumping into her arms so she was already used to my reactions. "She's back." "I wasn't done talking to you. Here read this." She held a dust pamphlet in front of my face before resiting what sounded like the warning label that came with dust. Setting me down on my feet again Yang decided to try and play peace keeper. "Now now you two I think you guys just got off on the wrong foot." "Maybe you should start over." The white haired heiress gave a "hump" and walked away.
"Or maybe not". "It's ok Yang I didn't want to be friends with a Schnee anyway." "Oh" she knew my view on the Schnee family and didn't say any more. I looked to the stage as the speakers hummed to life at the sound of a throat being cleared. "I'll keep this brief, you have all travel here Today in search of knowledge in order to hone your skills and to acquire new skills and when you are finished you plan to dedicate your lives to the protection of the people, but I like amongst you and all I see wasted energy in need of purpose and correction you assume knowledge will free you of this but your time here will only prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to make the first step." He walked away his speech finished.
Mrs. Goodwitch stepped forward. "You will gather and bond tonight tomorrow your initiation begins, be ready, you are dismissed.
"Huh kinda off". "it's almost like he wasn't even there." I said offhandedly. It was obvious that he had other things on his mind it was like he's going on autopilot. No, exactly like autopilot.
