...Fuck. Note to self: figure out what this floor is made out of and NEVER sleep on it. I thought that I couldn't get cricked-up backs. Good to know that's been disproven before it became a issue later on. Ugh, seriously, I feel like fucking Esdeath got her hands on me after the poor bastard she was yandere-ing after just dumped her in her face. I hope that this scares the competition.

"Yaaaawn~ hey, All-EEK! DEMON!"

Thwack

That, my friends, is the sound of a pillow hitting my face, and my brain hemorhagging patience.

"Yes, I am Allen. I am NOT a demon."

"W-why do you look so sary?!"

"Sleeping on a floor does that to a man. Besides, shouldn't we head to the place where initiation is beginning?"

"WAIT! You're right! We gotta get ready quick!"

"You know, this is probably the only time I will be glad I don't have any proper pajamas and just went to sleep in my clothes.

~~some preparation later~~

Ah. Here it is. The peak of fate, where the teams that will save the world will be made in the future. And, depending on how I end up going about things, they might end up related more than canon. Speaking of cannons...

"WHAT THE FU-"

That would be the sound of a Qrow being launched at speeds that a normal human would not be able to survive. Thankfully, these are huntsmen. They probably got aura, they can live this. As for me, I have a landing plan...

Specifically, after posing majestically in the air after launch, I spear the ground with some metal, thus halting most of my momentum, then I slowly slid down the resulting pole.

"Tadaaaaaaaaa..."

Now then, to see if... nope, doesn't work. Can't see through the metal if I use it like a blindfold, so that's a bust...

No.

No, Murphy, God, please no. Please tell me this isn't happening. Murphy, you cant be this cruel. No, no, no, this is a fever dream-

"I knew that we would end up together. We are the strongest."

"...I don't like you, you don't like me, lets just swear not to annoy each other."

Fucking Raven is my partner. God. Damnit. I swear if I hear her insult Summer I WILL snap.

"...Agreed."

"Let's just get to the end of this this thing, then ignore each other for the rest of school."

Then, I went to do a thing that really shouldn't have taken me this long to try: I used a spear like a grappling hook and went flying off into the sunset.

...

Okay, that was not a tree I hooked onto. This is a Deathstalker. Fuck my life. Oh, hey Raven.

"Okay, i'm just gonna commit extreme accupuncture here."

Shlurk.

Okay, so, shoving a bunch of needles into a hell scorpion makes a disgusting sound. Ow. My soul.

"Alrght, that was easy yet very painful to hear."

"That Semblance is extremely powerful."

It took way too much effort to not snark at that.

"Yes. i can do more than just spears, as well. Now then, onward!"

Onwards, upwards, and through all of the city's wards!

...

Wow this is taking a while to latch onto som- AHAH! There!

...

Oh fuck it's Summer-

BAM

"Ow..."

"Ouch... oh, hey, Allen! So, uh, bad news, I already got a partner..."

"Hey."

What did I do to deserve being the victim of such schadenfraude?

"Hello, Qrow. sorry if I am extra snarky, just-"

"Hello, brother."

"I believe you can see why."

Qrow visibly winced.

"Ouch."

"Let's just get whatever it is that's waiting for us and be done with it."

"Okay."

"That IS the goal."

"Why not."

"I just love democracy."
