Ch.2)Blast from the Past
That night as everyone was settling in, Ceril looked around for Ruby so they could talk some more. He found Ruby with Yang again, those two always seemed to be together. They had been with each other on the airship and also ended up next to each other during orientation. He, on the other hand, ended up next to Juane Arc a.k.a. Mr. Vomit from the airship. He wasn't that bad he just had gotten airsick. His weapon was just a sword if you just took a glance, though Ceril guessed that the scabbard hid a shield.
"Hey Ruby, hey Yang. How you guys doing so far?" He asked them.
"It's alright though I'm pretty sure dad wouldn't be cool with all the guys that are in the room right now," Ruby said looking around.
"Well I'm sure she has nothing to worry about since Yang would destroy anyone who tried anything," Ceril said looking over at Yang who ended up blushing at the comment.
"Yeah, he's right I probably would," she agreed.
"So what's your plan for tomorrow?" He asked.
"Not sure just gonna roll with whatever happens."
"And you?" Ceril looked at Ruby.
"I'm not sure I just want to be on a team with my sis."
"Well it's not for certain but try your best and you might," he said with a small smile on his lips.
Ruby looked at him in curiosity wondering why he was smiling. "Um . . . Ceril, why are you smiling? Do you know something that we don't?" she asked.
'Whoops, I need to be more careful with what I say. Goodwitch had said not to let anyone know that she had told me what to expect for initiation.'"Haha sorry the person how took care of me was a hunter that came here. So I was thinking about somethings they told me," He said.
Ruby and Yang look at him, unconvinced at his explanation. "I don't believe you, you know something we don't, spill it," Yang said.
"Alright you caught me. First, let me explain why I know a little about what we have to do tomorrow. So the person that took care of me before I came here, it was Ms. Goodwitch."
"Wait, what? The headmistress was the one who took care of you, and gave you that weapon? Why?" Ruby asked.
"Hold on I'm getting to that. So apparently I just appeared here at Beacon three years ago in a crater after an explosion. And honestly that's where my memory goes blank after that. I woke up in the infirmary, Ms. Goodwitch declared she would take care of me and it's been that way until recently. And the reason I have a good idea about what we will be doing is I have watched previous initiations," Ceril explained.
"I guess that makes sense but you don't know anything about yourself other than the past three years?" Yang asked.
"Yep nothing, all I knew was that I was thirteen and my name was Ceril."
"That had to be rough, right?"
"Thanks to Goodwitch it wasn't, its almost like that time doesn't even matter, now I'm so caught up with events at present and socially it's like I grew up like a normal kid, despite how weird life will probably get at Beacon."
"Hey, why do you say it will be weird! It's gonna be awesome!"
"I guess weird was the wrong word interesting was the one I should've used and with you here, Yang, it will be."
Ruby started giggling at the comment Ceril had made cause at that second Yang started blushing, then stormed off embarrassed.
"Wow, I've never seen Yang get so embarrassed before I think she might like you Ceril," Ruby said.
"Why would she like me? She just met me today."
"Yeah, but no guy has ever made act this way before. Guys are usually to scared of her."
"Wow. She must be pretty strong then."
"Yeah she is. Well I better go find her and calm her down." And with that Ruby got up to go find her sister.
At this time Ceril was getting a little irritable with the eyes he felt on him. "Well are gonna come out and introduce yourself or you just gonna continue being creepy?" He asked to what seemed to be no one, when all of a sudden a girl seemed appear out of the wall. "So you are?" He asked the girl.
The girl had almost a ninja kinda feel to her. She slightly tanned skin, red hair (almost blood red), cat ears the same color, and black shirt, jeans, shoes, and vest jacket. Her eyes were amber colored and almost seemed to glow.
"My name is Serene, Serene Blood. And I've met you before Ceril. What happened to you? You disappeared on me for five years and then show up here all buddy buddy with those two," she looked at furious, her anger barely contained.
"Um, I don't remember you at all. I have no memory of my life past the last three years. I'm sorry but I honestly don't know you."
Serene at this point is in tears and then takes of running. 'I need to talk to Ospin and Goodwitch about this.' Ceril then gets up takes off for the headmasters office. 'Just like I told Yang things are gonna get interesting.'
