Things were quite on the streets of Vale, well that was until a group of men in suits walked through the streets. At the lead was a blond woman in a tight white blouse and a black skirt that was buttoned up the front, she was adorned with a purple cape and a pair of glasses; she looked like the typical fusion of dominatrix and librarian. She was holding a riding crop and the men following her were probably terrified of it. They were walking through the streets under the light of the moon heading to a small store that was open late at night. It was a small shop named From Dust till Dawn, when they entered it was empty of people.
Most would say that it was suspicious to have a single woman accompanied by a group of men in the night, most people would be right. She gave the shopkeeper a glare and she said with a both condescending and yet strong voice, "Do you have any idea how difficult it is to find a store open so late? Well do you?"
He looked more scared than anything very clearly intimidated by the woman's intense gaze. She just rolled her eyes when he moved to open the register, "No, you simpleton I don't want your money. Take the Dust."
The men followed her orders and began stealing the Dust from the store, until one of them wandered to the back of the store. Where he found a little girl reading a magazine, with her hood up. He moved to 'talk' to her, "Alright kid put your hands where I can see them."
No reply she just stood there reading the only thing that could be heard from her was the faint sound of music in the air. He just walked over to her and pulled the hood off while spinning her to face him. She had headphones on and she was calmly surprised to see a man touching her, he just motioned for her to take her headphones off. When she did she just replied positively, "Yes?"
"Put your hands in the air!"
"Are you robbing me?"
"Yes!" he said exasperatedly. He was ready for this conversation and probably night to be over as well.
"Ohh," was all she could utter before she palmed him in the face. This hit sent him flying through the window at the front of the store, it was a quick slap that threw him far landing at the front of the store. She was just stood there as another man ran up to her with a gun, until he was thrown out the window with the girl standing over him. The woman just stood there as the men that worked for her just stared at the little girl.
"I'm not here to hold your hands, get her." The woman said mildly annoyed. The men all rushed outside and circled the girl in red, she turned off her headphones as her gauntlets unfolded into round flowers shaped buzz-saws. She was short and had a large cloak which she used to her advantage concealing her movements as the first grunt charged at her. She blocked his sword with one of the flowers giving her enough room to slip her leg around his and trip him. She followed that up with hitting him in the chest with the other flower. He hit the ground hard enough to crack the concrete.
The next two rushed her at the same time, but she fired the first shot out of her gauntlet and let it spin her around. She spun around and back handed one of the grunts through the other window of the store while simultaneously ducking under the swing of his sword. She spun around several times striking him each time with both arms, she somehow managed to only shred his cloths before rotating once again and planting both of her hands directly into his chest. This propelled him down the street knocking his hat and pants off. The last grunt began firing rapidly at her, she shot the bullet launching her back. Before he could readjust she launched herself to the other side of the street then at him kicking him in the chest with both her feet.
The woman just shook her head and snapped her crop, "That was pathetic and you should all feel pathetic for this," the groans of the men were drowned out by the click of her heels. She sighed before she fixed her glasses into place, "well miss Red I would say it was nice to meet you but that would be a lie."
She threw out several dust crystals at red before she snapped her crop, they all fixed into place with a purple glow before they began to crack. Red just stood there bracing herself for and explosion, but all the crystals cracked and evaporated. When red looked up she was more confused than angry, yet the woman had climbed onto a roof in the time the distraction took place. Red looked at the shopkeeper and said, "You okay if I go after them?"
"Who's gonna pay for my store?"
"I'll be going." She pointed the gun down and launched herself onto the roof. When she got up there the blonde woman was already at the other side of the building, she turned back and sighed, "You just have to be persistent don't you, well it's all for nothing."
Then once again she snapped her crop, yet this time an air vent came crashing up out of the building. She straightened her crop and directed it at red throwing the massive metal box at her. It flew fast and hard and she didn't have time to react before it hit her. When it did there was a loud crash a blast of shrapnel and plenty of smoke. There was a grin from the blonde woman as she expected the girl to be dust.
What she wasn't expecting when the dust settled was a short pink woman holding an umbrella. She did a little curtsy as she spun the umbrella around while giving a wild grin. The blonde woman began scowling as she said, "Well this got annoying quick. You two can enjoy your own stupidity together."
A bullhead flew up behind her causing wind to push them back. The blonde woman jumped into the bullhead only for the pink woman to collapse her umbrella and pointed the tip of it towards the bullhead and fired a small red explosive out of the tip of it. The explosive hit and damaged the ship, the blonde woman could only react by shouting, "This is getting ridiculous. Do something about her?"
The blonde woman ran up to the front as another woman sauntered her way from the front of the ship. She had long blonde hair forming a mane of fire as she began to mover her hand towards the explosive volley. She caught one in both hands and it didn't take long for either of them to explode, the pink woman could only give a confused look. She hadn't expected anyone to grab them out of the sky like they were nothing, if anything she probably had lost a finger of two after that one.
When the smoke dispersed she was left standing without so much as a hair out of place, well that wasn't true as it all suddenly burst into flames. She then proceeded to heft her right hand into the air to deliver a massive punch, but from that distance it would be irrelevant. That was until she fired a massive blast of flame, not at the two women on the building but at the building itself. It blasted through the top of the building creating a massive hole until the building began to burn and collapse.
The roof began to crumble from the hole that was blasted into it, they began to run from it as the building collapsed beneath them. Both simultaneously jumped off the building, red firing bullets at the ground to slow her descent, while the pink one rode down on her umbrella. The bullhead flew away as the building collapsed while the women landed safely away from the newly flaming wreckage. They both watched as the bullhead flew away at a quick pace, then red looked at pink and said, "You're a huntress. Can I have your autograph?"
Red was now sitting in a police interrogation room while Pink was just standing there starring at her. Red was very uneasy as Pink's gaze was suffocating. She may have been a few feet tall but the quiet radiated pure chaos, and this made Red want to break the silence, "I'm Ruby Rose by the way. I'm in training to become a huntress like yourself. What's your name?"
The Woman just starred blankly before a wooden sign appeared that said, 'Neopolitan'. And just as fast as it appeared she slammed it into Ruby's hands as they where lying on the table. It shattered like glass as she flinched from having something hit her hand. Ruby recoiled back as Neo suddenly had another sign that said, 'Do you have any idea what your actions caused tonight.' Ruby lowered her shoulders as she looked away and said, "Not really? Uhh, helping a shopkeeper, maybe."
Neo just scowled as another sign appeared this one read, 'A lot of collateral damage that could cost a fortune to repair.' Ruby once again looked away before another sign appeared reading, 'So you know good job. You're already halfway to being a huntress.' Ruby perked up at this compliment but it was cut short by a man in a white trench coat, bowler hat, and wicked eyeliner came in holding a cane and some cookies. He said, "That's enough Neo. We're not supposed to praise that kind of behavior. Now miss Rose do you know why I'm here?"
"Well I assumed it was to give me a reward for stopping thieves," she spoke quickly as he sat down while putting the cookies in front of her. She gave them a quick glance before downing several at once. He was taken a back by her reckless abandon for eating so many conspicuous cookies at once. He just shook his head before continuing, "Well regardless of your efforts you did masterfully stop several thieves while only destroying a few windows and a building."
"They blew up the building, I was just standing on it," she tried to defend herself but it was to no avail as the man just kept looking at her. Neo then lifted up a scroll with the footage of the fight that sat just behind him.
"I have only witnessed a few people capable of wielding weapons like these and even fewer with such grace, really only one, a wild Scorpion."
"That's my uncle Tyrian, he taught me how to use pincers just like him. Before his help I was hopeless, but now I'm like hewah phshaw ha!" She said the last bit while doing hand motions. The man just raised an eyebrow while rolling his right before speaking up once again, "Of course, but that doesn't really matter when you capably fight several armed men at once."
"Yeah, I mean I did do that," she said while rubbing her neck. He just smiled once again and said, "Well is usually more difficult for people who haven't finished their training, but you handled it like a fully train huntsman would. That makes you nearly prodigal, so I only have two questions to ask you. Do you know who I am?"
"You're Roman Torchwick Deputy Headmaster of Beacon Academy."
"Exactly, and second would you like to come to Beacon?" she paused for a second while she looked him in the eye. He was serious and his offer was real so she had to answer as quickly as the question was asked.
"More than anything in the world." Neo just rolled her eyes as Roman looked back at her. He had a smug grin while she just raised a hand and gave a confused look. He just waited for her to react any differently, that was until she finally shook her head side to side. He just shook his head up and down she reacted by pointing at Ruby and moving her hand at her neck in a no motion. He shook his head at her and then pointed at his cane before giving her a quick glare. She finally relented by giving a thumbs up.
"She says yes." Roman told Ruby like she didn't just witness an undeniably bizarre silent conversation.
"I can't believe my little sister is going to Beacon early." A woman with solid black hair said as she hugged Ruby tightly nearly lifting her off the ground. Ruby was having trouble breathing as she was being squeezed so tight.
"Can't... Breathe... Cinder," She croaked out as she was being held tightly.
"Eh, you'll be fine." Cinder said as she held tightly onto Ruby. This went until the redhead slid her hands in between the two of them, quickly pushing with both of her palms forcing the girl away from her. The slightly larger of the two just placed a hand to her chest and began saying, "You so callously push me away like I were some creepy groper, and not your beautiful sister. You wound me so."
"Gonna ham it up some more, or are you done?" The ravenette went from looking hurt to being back to normal like nothing happened.
"Yeah, I'm done. But I mean come on two years early, that has to be a record. Everyone is going to think you're extraordinary." She said with total enthusiasm.
"Well it's better two years early than two years late." Ruby stated quickly and coldly to cut as deep as she could.
"Shut up you can't prove that." Cinder countered with a quick whisper.
"How did you even get in so late?" Ruby questioned.
"Look I didn't ask the time you brought home that puppy, so I think it's your turn to not ask."
"I thought you loved Zwei?"
"I do, but that doesn't change the fact that you probably should have asked before you tried hiding him in our closet." They both glared at each other for a few seconds before they broke down into laughter. The ship they where was headed to Beacon academy, but that wouldn't change with their laughter. So when they calmed down Cinder finally asked, "So how did you get in again?"
"I stopped a robbery and during the chase I survived a building collapse." She said nonchalantly really calmly like it was any other day.
"There's a lot to unpack there but at least you're safe."
"We literally hunt monsters and you act like our safety matters."
"Your safety matter to me," she said this while placing a hand on her shoulder and giving a little honest smile, "Besides knowing you something went wrong."
"Well I didn't catch the head thief thought, she managed to get away-" Before she could say anything else the screen near them began playing. It was turned to the news only to see the mug shot of woman Ruby fought.
"While her robbery was foiled the elusive Glynda Goodwitch once again escaped capture. This was the most recent in a string of robberies-" She was also cut off by the screen changing to Neopolitan. She just stood there, soundlessly staring until she lifted up another sign that read, 'Whose idea was it to have me do the announcements.' Cinder's cheeks puffed up as she formed a slight glare at the screen, while Ruby just elbowed her and said, "I met her."
Neo shook her head and lifted another sign this one reading, 'You'll be to Beacon soon so don't start any sh-' the last part was blocked by her hand. They looked out the window to see Beacon Academy, it's large castle like structure with a massive clock tower at the peak. They moved to the window to see the spectacle of this castle only for Cinder to comment, "Not the worst view I've ever seen."
"You say that like you've seen better."
"No, I said not the worst."
"And what is the worst then?"
"Uncle Tyrian getting out of the shower." Ruby just gave a grimace at that statement having just imagined the worst. They both gave each other another look and burst into laughter once again. This laughter was only interrupted by the sound of someone puking ever so slightly, they turned and saw a blonde boy throwing up into a bag. Cinder quickly maneuvered her way around Ruby so that when he threw up again instead of hitting Cinder it landed at Ruby's feet. Splattering her boots this was immediately followed by Ruby shrieking and running around.
"Ew, it's on my boots!" She shrieked loudly as she was running around the ship as Cinder tried to calm her down. Cinder was trying to be nice but she was definitely glad it didn't soak her heels. She just happened to see the blonde before he really puked, and it was not like the puke would ruin Ruby's boots anymore than they already were. Cinder was in the process of trying to get Ruby to throw out her outfit so she could make her a new not so grimm gut covered outfit. They may dissolve but that doesn't mean they don't leave traces of guts and Cinder was sure that the outfit Ruby was wearing was white when she made it originally.

Most of the characters will be swapped around the main cast, Yang and Cinder swapped positions clearly and that will become even more evident later on. And since Tyrian and Qrow swapped that reflected on Ruby by instead of a scythe she uses rose shaped shields with the petals having sharpened blades. They are called Rose Blossom and have heavy high caliber pistols for the gun and she learned to attack with her palms as well as the blades. There will be several other characters who swap roles but they'll revealed later on.
