Noah was sitting in the empty dorm that was assigned to him. Apparently, he was supposed to wait here for the other three 'heroes' to come.
He'd already exhausted his options of screaming obscenities at the wall, just screaming, and generally pondering if this was a dream.
Because if it was, whoever was making it had a sick sense of humor. Of all the magical 'Semblances' he could have received, it had to be the one that partially turned him into the scary god demon he was fated to become.
He sat on his bed in general silence. Then the door slammed open and Noah was suddenly out of his bed, fists at the ready.
"Noah?" was the ever so familiar voice that crept into his ear. Noah looked, really looked, and saw Evan standing in front of him. The real Evan that he had met on his trip, not that fucking creepy HABIT.
"Why are you here? The weird Ozpin-headmaster-guy said that coming into this room would explain everything. So far, I'm even more confused," Evan stated.
Noah gave him an understanding look. "I get that. This place is still weird-as-shit even to me, and I've been here a day. I also really don't trust that Ozpin guy. He knows a lot more about us than he should." Noah reassured.
"What'd you mean?" Evan asked.
"I mean that he knew about my whole situation with Daddy Longlegs and his demonic book club. He also said that apparently he knows a lot about the rest of us, as well. Including you." Noah replied. Evan's eyes widened.
"For now, we have to stay here, play their shitty game. At least it'll be better than what we had to deal with back home. I mean, shit, we've got magic powers! Perhaps maybe once we know how this place works, we can make a break for it with the others!" Noah promised.
Something else - hope - shone in Evan's eyes. "We've got magic powers?" he said in awe.
Caught woke up. Goddamnit, he was in a forest. Either he got very drunk and fell asleep in the woods or this was the Slenderman's fault. He was more inclined towards the latter.
He stumbled through the woods and came to a clearing, wherein he saw a girl with bunny ears fighting a giant masked snake.
Yep. He was on drugs. Only solution. This bunny girl was soundly kicking this snake's ass with what looked like a fuckin' bazooka. Jesus, this was like something out of a shitty anime.
Suddenly, the snake lunged at him and he knew, he knew this was the end. He closed his eyes, braced for it… but it never came.
He opened his eyes and there was what appeared to be a force-field coming from his hands, encasing him in a bubble of sweet, sweet protection. He flipped the giant snake off with his force-field projecting hands.
But a gunshot sounded out and the giant snake fell right in front of him. "FUCK." he yelled, perhaps a bit too loudly.
"I wasn't even involved in what just happened there." he remarked. The bunny girl strided up to him.
"Hello? What are you doing out here in these woods?" she asked.
Caught was struck by impulse. The words that came spilling out of his mouth were ones he absolutely did not recognize. He had no idea what he was saying.
What came out of his mouth were the words "Take me to Ozpin, please."
The bunny girl grew confused. "Take you to Ozpin? Why?" she asked.
Again, the words that flowed out of his mouth were not his own.
"The Headmaster! The Headmaster of that one academy where you guys train to fight monsters like that! Take me to him, please!" he damn near shouted.
The bunny girl covered her ears. After a bit, she relented. "Very well.. I'll take you to Beacon."
Again, time could only tell what happened to Caught.
