Finally got a new chapter in. I will be commenting on reviews starting this chapter.

Anon. Y. Mous: sorry if I misled you on the armor part, what I have intended is that because of some new neuro chips the good Captain can initiate a mental command triggering a teleporter becon on the armor and a series of chips in the nervous system make sure it's in place, how that works I'll just say it's the emperor's genius, questioning is heresy. As for shipping Titus, the most I will do is father figure relationships.

Loremaster endsong: well since Roman did a gentle underhand toss, it would be understandable.

"Oh, I can't believe my baby sister is going to beacon with me! This is the best day ever?" The only response Ruby Rose could muster as she was slowly crushed to death by her sister Yang was a wheezed "please stop."

While that managed to get the blonde brawler to let go, it did not diminish her excitement, "but I'm so proud of you!"

"Really sis, it was nothing."

"What do you mean? It was incredible! Everyone at beacon is going to think you're the bee's knees."

This statement caused Ruby to become exasperated, "I don't want to be the bee's knees, okay I don't want to be any kind of knees. I just want to be a normal girl with normal knees."

"What's with you? Aren't you excited?"

With a sigh the reaper continued, "of course I'm excited... I just... I got moved ahead two years ahead of schedule. I don't want anyone to think I'm special."

With that Yang put an arm across Ruby's shoulder in reassurance, "but you are special."

Suddenly the sisters heard a thump behind them and they turned to see a black haired boy in atleasian combat fatigues (imagine U.S. Marine fatigues) getting himself off of the floor while muttering something about killing someone named 'Gabriel.' Ruby was the first to the proverbial punch, "are you alright?"

After he got back up he responded "yeah, I'm fine."

Once he caught sight of Ruby, he developed a look of recognition and popped a question towards the reaper, "aren't you the girl from the dust robbery?"

"Yeah, how do you know of that?"

In response his eyes widened to comedic proportions as he said, "because I can read minds."

As a result Ruby's eyes did the same and let out a gasp of amazement, "whoa."

The boy's face then returned to normal as he then added, "just kidding, my father actually has connections with Ozpin. That's part of the reason how I managed to get into beacon."

He then proceeded to offer a handshake as he introduced himself, "I'm Alex Ironwood."

Ruby accepted the offer and responded in kind, "Ruby Rose."

With introductions out of the way he then turned to Yang and continued, "and this must be the famous 'blonde brawler' Yang Xiao Long, I heard about your clubhouse stint in case you were wondering."

He then took her hand and proceeded to kiss it saying, "it is a pleasure to finally meet you Fraulein." Said action achieving the desired effect of Yang blushing redder than Crescent Rose.

Before the owner of said weapon could tell the two to get a room, the newsreel fizzled out to reveal a hologram of a blonde woman who appeared to be an authoritative figure that began to speak, "Hello, and welcome to Beacon."

Yang quickly voiced her confusion, "who's that?" But the woman continued, answering her question, "My name is Glynda Goodwitch."

"You are among a privileged few who have received the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy! Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future huntsmen and huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world."

With the welcome message complete, the hologram switched back to the newsreel, prompting everyone to return to their conversations as a blonde skinny boy ran towards a nearby trash can and proceeded to hurl. This caused Ruby to comment, "I guess the view isn't for everyone."

Alex merely shrugged and said, "it's probably just motion sickness. Well, I'll see you girls later."

With that he turned to leave before promptly turning around and calling out to Yang, "oh and one more thing Yang. There's vomit on you shoe."

This caused her to panic, "eww, gross gross gross!"

At the same time Ruby was near shrieking, "Stop, get away from me, get away from me!" While Alex was walking away chuckling at their antics.

...

The first-year students were due to arrive first. With the airship transporting them arriving in just a few minutes, Titus decided that it would help in familiarizing himself with them if he at least observe them upon landing. Although he was already familiar with ms Rose, even though he questioned her early placement into the schola. While he did not doubt her combat prowess, he worried that she might not be able to handle the psychological pressure. Whilst ruminating he came across the aforementioned red reaper spinning around in a dazed state after being left in the dust by and older blonde girl [probably her sister] all while muttering about dorms, "aren't we supposed to go to our dorms? Where are our dorms? Do we even have dorms? I don't know what I'm doing."

As she finished blabbering she fell back into a baggage tote, angering the owner, a 17 year-old girl with snow white hair and a dress to match. "What are you doing?"

The only response Ruby could muster was a timid "sorry."

This only irritated the girl further as she continued, "sorry!? Do you have any idea of the damage you could've caused!?"

The boy accompanying her, who appeared to have attire similar to that of an imperial psyker, picked up one of the cases and attempted to placate her, "will you relax sister, all she did was fall into them, there's not even a scratch."

His attempt however failed as she snatched the case from his hands and continued her rant towards Ruby as she opened it and grabbed a vial from the case, "this is dust, mined and purified from a Schnee quarry."

The only response from the reaper was a confused look, further angering the Ice Queen causing her took shake the vile, "are you deaf? Dust, fire, water, lightning, energy, is any of this ringing a bell?!"

As she continued shaking the vile, dust was being dispersed into the air, prompting the boy to grab her wrist and warn her, "that is enough Weiss, any further shaking of the vial could lead to an accident." this caused the girl identified as Weiss to scoff, "what are you talking about, the vial is..."

Before she could finish speaking Ruby suddenly sneezed causing the airborne dust to go volatile and explode causing the vial in question to launch towards two nearby individuals, a golden eyed brunet and a silver haired wolf faunus.

In the aftermath of the blast, the only reaction mustered was a simple statement from the boy following a wheezing cough, "like that."

Feeling the need to interfere before things got out of hand, Titus made his way up to the group, "is there a problem that i should be aware of?"

Before the boy could respond the Ice Queen interrupted, "yes there is a problem sir! This clumsy dolt nearly caused irreversible damage to Schnee Dust Company property and blew us off the cliff!"

This caused Ruby to snap, "hey I said I was sorry princess!"

At that moment a semi-deep voice interjected, "it's heiress actually."

Those words drew the attention of the gathering two the source of the voice, finding the two individuals from earlier, the faunus being the one who spoke.

The girl accompanying him then continued, "Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, the largest producer of energy propellant in the world."

Upon hearing this the Schnee developed a smug grin and said with arrogance, "finally some recognition."

Her grin immediately disappeared when the faunus continued, "the same company infamous for its controversial labor force and questionable business partners."

Making things worse for her, the boy accompanying her commented, "yep that's us, 100%."

This made her finally snap, "who's side are you...you know what, I don't have time for this!"

With that she furiously strode away from them leaving Ruby to call out to her, "I promise I'll make this up to you."

As soon as the Ice queen left the boy decided to break the awkward silence, "sorry about that, my sister can get very touchy about these kinds of situations, I'm Gabriel by the way."

"Ruby, Nice to meet you." The Reaper then turned to the giant beside her and spoke, "oh hey Titus, didn't expect to see you here."

"Well, seeing as I am just starting as an instructor, I thought it would be best if I familiarize myself with the students I will be teaching." Not mentioning the fact that he was further evaluating her.

Just then, the blonde Yang had earlier dubbed 'vomit boy' got their attention, "um excuse me, do any of you know where the auditorium is? Because I'm lost."

With the last few words he sagged his shoulders in defeat, his inquiry prompting the ultramarine to respond, "it is in the main building straight ahead, the directory can guide you from there."

After the boy gave a nod of appreciation, Titus turned towards the other two students, "I suggest you two do the same, orientation begins in 15 min."

With that he took his leave of the three students. Upon his departure, Ruby turned towards the blonde and asked him, "aren't you the guy who threw up on the ship?"

A nervous chuckle in response confirmed her suspicions, also prompting Gabriel to inquire about it, "motion sickness huh?"

"Yeah it's a curse."

...

"I'm just saying, motion sickness is a much more common problem than people let on."

Ruby responded by saying, "look I'm sorry but 'vomit boy' was the first thing that came to mind."

This irritated the boy as he tensely responded, "oh yeah? Well what if I called you 'crater face'."

"Hey that explosion was an accident!"

"Well the name's Jaune Arc, short, sweet, rolls off the tounge, ladies love it."

Gabriel then stuck his head in between the two and questioned Jaune's claim, "do they?"

"Well they will, at least I hope they will, well my mom always says... never mind."

At that moment, the Schnee decided to change the subject, "so, what kind of weapons do you guys have?"

The question made Ruby beam with pride as she responded by pulling out her signature weapon crescent rose.

A startled Jaune then launched an inquiry about said weapon, "is that a scythe?"

"It's also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle."

"What?"

The red reaper then operated the cocking mechanism and dumbed it down for the Arc, "it's also a gun. So what do you guys have?"

The Schnee was the first to respond by bringing out a pair of simple gauntlets with dust canisters lining the wrists, "these may not look like much, but depending on which type of dust is currently in use, I can use these bad boys to manipulate the corresponding element, like gravity for example."

Upon completing the description, he demonstrated by snapping his fingers and as a result causing Jaune to float in midair and with another snap, sending him crashing down.

Ruby ended up starry eyed at this, her weapons excitement getting the best of her. After a few momemts Gabriel proceeded to wave his hand in front of her face, "Remnant to Ruby, come in Ruby."

She finally snapped out of it after a few more tries and then turned to Jaune, "so what do you have."

"Well, I got this sword, and I also have this shield." as he mentioned them he pulled out the two specified items.

"Oooohhh."

Gabriel eyed the weapon with curiosity and asked the blonde praetorian, "is that croeca mars?"

"Yeah it is, you know it?"

"I did some reading on it back in Atlas. How did you get a hold of it?"

"It's a hand me down, my great-great-grandfather used it to fight in the war."

At that moment Ruby interjected, "sounds more like a family heirloom to me. Well I like it, not everyone has an appreciation for the classics these days."

"Right, the classics."

After a few moments of silence, Gabriel makes an out of the blue comment, "oh we're here."

True to his word, the trio had finally arrived at the building set aside for orientation.

...

At the moment the trio arrived at the auditorium, they heard someone call out from within the crowd, "Ruby, over here? I saved you a spot!"

Before Ruby went to reunite with her sister, she bid farewell to her two companions, "there's my sister, I gotta go, I'll see you guys later."

Her sudden departure made Jaune a little down as he said to himself, "oh man, where am I supposed to find a nice quirky girl to talk to?"

This prompted Gabriel to respond upon noticing a famous redhead give Arc a look of interest upon hearing his words, "well, I think I just found one. Come on I'll introduce you." With that he pushed Jaune towards the back of the auditorium despite the boy's protests.

Meanwhile Ruby made it to her sister who proceeded to ask, "how's you first day sis?"

This caused the reaper to snap in response, "you mean since you ditched me and I exploded!?"

"Yikes, meltdown already?"

"No, I literally exploded. This girl kept yelling at me and I felt really bad and wanted her to stop..."

As she continued speaking, a young, dark-skinned tiger faunus appeared behind her. He wore an orange Deel with black sashes and trousers and quickly spoke. "Does this have something to do with the blast at the docks?"

This caused Ruby to jump into Yang's arms with a startled cry, "oh God it's happening again!"

Yang, on the other hand, was merely confused. "I'm sorry, the what-now?"

"Apologies, I did not mean to startle you. I was merely inquiring as to the explosion earlier. I take it you were involved?"

Upon hearing this, Yang's eyes widened in surprise as she said, "oh my god you really did explode."

The faunus waved his hands in dismissal. "Not to worry, that happens to me all the time. I'll tell you, Dust-infused arrows are far more difficult to handle than people elt on."

Suddenly the noise in the auditorium died down. The cause of it was Headmaster Ozpin, who began speaking as he pushed his glasses back towards his face. "I'll...keep this brief. You have traveled here today in search of knowledge. To hone your craft and acquire new skills. And when you finish, you place to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But, I look amongst you, and all I see is wasted energy. In need of purpose. Direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far...it is up to you to take the first step."

Upon completion of the speech, Goodwitch took over speaking, "you will gather in the ballroom tonight. Tomorrow, your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed."

With that, the students were left to ruminate on the headmasters words. In said commotion, Yang spoke up, "what was up with that? Kinda seemed like he wasn't all there."

The Faunus agreed with that sentiment. "I agree, but he has given us much to think about. By the way, we have not been introduced. My name is Saul Kahn."

"Yang Xiao Long. And this bundle of adorable is my sister Ruby Rose."

Said bundle blushed in embarrassment as their new acquaintance gave a hearty laugh.

...

The ballroom was hectic as the first year students set up sleeping areas within the ballroom. Amidst the crowd, Ruby was writing while Yang flopped down beside her saying, "it's like a huge slumber party!"

"I don't think dad would approve of all the boys though."

"I know I do." Upon saying that, Yang proceeded to ogle the hot bodies populating the ballroom, until Jaune walked into view wearing a light-blue onesie and waved at her, to which she weakly returned the favor, "never mind. So what are you writing?"

"I'm writing a letter to my friends back at signal, about what it's like at Beacon."

Yang then replied teasingly, "that is sooo cuuuuttteee!" To which she was greeted by a pillow to the face.

"Shut up! I didn't get to take my friends with me to Beacon. It's hard not knowing anybody here."

"Oh come on, there's Jaune, Alex, Gabriel, and Slate. There you go, plus four friends."

"I'm pretty sure Weiss counts as a negative friend, down to three."

"There's no such thing as a negative friend, you've just made and enemy." This got the blonde brawler another pillow to the face to which she removed and continued speaking, "look, you've got so many potential friends out there. You just haven't met them yet."

As her sister finished speaking, Ruby noticed two familiar individuals, the girl and her faunus companion from the ice queen encounter. "I know those two, they were there at the incident."

This caused Yang to smile with glee, "great, more new friends for you." She then proceeded to drag the unfortunate reaper into another awkward social encounter.

Ruby's protests drew the attention of the two individuals who caught sight of Yang who broke the Ice, "hellloooo, I believe you guys may know each other."

The girl was the only one to respond, "aren't you the girl who exploded?"

Ruby awkwardly offered a handshake as she responded "yeah, my names Ruby. But you can just call me crater...actually you can just call me ruby."

The girls only response was a halfhearted "okay."

This caused Yang to look at Ruby and ask "what are you doing?"

To which she responded "I don't know, help me."

Yang then turned back towards the two and asked "so, what are your names?"

The girl responded "Blake, and my friend over here is Daniel." Said individual grunted in acknowledgment.

Yang then replied with an almost forced enthusiasm, "well, I'm Yang, Ruby's older sister. I like your bow."

"Thanks."

"It goes great with your... pajamas." That caused Daniel to face-palm.

As a result, Yang awkwardly chuckled and switched the subject, "nice night don't you think?"

Blake responded with a hint of frustration in her voice, "yes, it's almost as lovely as this book." The two girls not getting the hidden message.

"That I will continue to read." Still nothing.

At this point, Daniel sighed in frustration and interjected, "as soon as you both leave."

Yang finally got the message and said to Ruby, "yep these two are a lost cause."

Ruby however continued her efforts, "what's it about?"

This question caught Blake off guard so Ruby specified, "your book, does it have a name?"

"It's about a man with two souls, each fighting for control of the body."

Yang made a failed attempt to sound impressed by it, "oh yeah, that sounds lovely."

Ruby then continued speaking, "I love books,Yang read them to me every night when I was a kid; they're one of the reasons why I want to be a huntress."

"Why, hoping you'll live happily ever after?"

"I'm hoping we all will. As a girl, I wanted to be just like the heros of those stories, someone who fought for what's right and protected those who couldn't protect themselves."

Daniel then added his two cents, "that's very ambitious for a child. But unfortunately the world isn't so simple."

"That's why we're here, to make it better."

The wolf faunus then replied with a light chuckle, "yeah, I guess so."

Yang then tackled Ruby while saying, "oh I'm so proud of you!" The result was the red reaper flailing about in a vain attempt to shake her off. Before the two girls could continue, Daniel slung them over each of his shoulders and carried them to their sleeping area where he plopped both of them and bid them good night. With the confusion over with, the two girls decided that it would be a good time to rest up for initiation.

A filler chapter is the longest ever written, that is a first.

Well I have finally introduced my oc team, next chapter will be a bio on them.

As for a certain ship, I decided to get the ball rolling immediately, you are welcome arkos fans.

One last thing, I will be focusing on my other story babe of sauron for a while just so you know.
