(Sooo welcome to chapter 3/4! This will be a letter to Weiss from Whitley so it will be in Whitley's perspective. But fear not, the next chapter will be back to the usual 3rd person format. But for now, enjoy! -Francis the smol)
Dear sister.
Beacon has been quite an experience so far. The headmaster while seeming a tad...out of it to put it lightly, seems to know what he's doing. And so far the common people seem loud...undisciplined...yet they seem to possess a degree of potential and skill.
But I should get to the point. I was partnered up during the initiation. Miss Ruby Rose, a very lively but kind girl, naive even. Though kind she is also capable in battle, though a bit uncatious...I may have to help her with that. We did have a run in with a few beowolf's where I had to step in to help her. But later on she did prove her worth.
But details first of course, we approached the relics that seemed to be...chess pieces. As an avid chess player I picked my favourite piece, the white rook. Now it seems as we did this 2 others approached. A black haired girl that seemed to have knowledge of our families company. As well as a...hate towards it. The other girl was he sister of my partner, her name Yang Xaio-long. I have no idea why they have different last names, step sisters if I had to guess.
After some reuniting, Ruby hugging onto her sister, we heard a sound. We looked over to see a Ursa heading towards us, but before we could do much a energetic orange haired girl jumped off it. Yes...literally riding an Ursa for fun. Shortly after It seems her partner had caught up, a black haired boy with a single purple/pink streak. Nora Valkyrie and Lie Ren.
As for he last pair in this little circle of hunters and huntresses in training, the champion Pyrrha Nikos had shown up outrunning a Death stalker. And hanging from it's tail her partner screamed with a voice like that of a girls, Jaune Arc. He is an Arc so I'm skeptical of his...stupidity to put it bluntly.
Anyway eventually I had come up with a plan, Ruby distracted the Death stalker while I used blue dust to freeze it in place. As it stayed stunned in ice, Ruby listened to me for once and attacked it's stomach. Her semblance seems to be speed, she used it to completely destroy the beasts stomache area. Though this didn't finish it off completely. But it stayed stunned long enough that the Arc from before managed to hop down.
Though our celebrating was cut short. A Nevermore of all things interupted us.
I won't bore you the details of us failing to even damage this thing, but eventually my partner actually managed to come up with a strategy.
Ruby's sister and her partner managed to distract the creature, the black haired one I later found to be Blake Belladona managed to use her weapons to tie the creature up briefly. At the time time I used the glyphs to launch Ruby at it, combined with her speed semblance It launched her straight at the mountainside with her scythe in the Nevermore's neck. Of course I promptly used my glyphs to allow her to wall along the side of the mountain, she used her speed semblance to run straight up the mountain and eventually built up enough power and speed to decapitate the thing entirely.
Now the others, they seemed to come up with a plan on their own to deal with the Death Stalker. The Arc actually came up with the idea to have Pyrrha use her spear to cut the tail loose, then he commanded the orange haired girl from before to launch him at the tail and actually ended up slicing the tail clean off. The remainder of the tail ended up piercing the skull of the death stalker That's when the valkyrie girl used her hammer to launch the remainder of the tail all the way through and defeating the beast.
At last they had been defeated.
The Arc boy actually ended up the leader of him team. Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Prryha Nikos and Lie Ren. Team JNPR.
As for myself...
Ruby Rose, Whitley Schnee, Blake Belladona and Yang Xaio-long. Team RWBY, lead by...Ruby Rose.
While Ruby is kind and a gifted fighter, she is simply too immature and rash to be a leader! Personally I thought myself to be the best choice, but I suppose only time will tell.
But enough about beacon, how are things back at home my dear sister? I hope you are doing well and that father isn't being too harsh on you. Please keep in touch and write back as soon as you can.
Sincerly with love - Your brother Whitley Schnee.
