Multiple Talking
Next Morning: 9 am
I woke up hurt. Correction, I was not feeling hurt, I was the physical embodiment of hurt. My head was pounding, my bones creaked, there was caked blood on my lips, I couldn't feel my face, and I was naked in the nurse's office…
I was naked in the nurse's office…
Well, this is new. As I was wondering where my clothes were, the door opened to see Ms. Peach walk in with what seemed to be…celery sticks. Huh. There goes my respect for her.
-So, I check in today at 5 in the morning today, wondering what was I going to research today. Maybe if there was a way to multiply the effect of Dust using other agents, or how to make items that mimic Dust? Imagine my surprise when I see my cute little student become the embodiment of purple, blue, and green. My surprise grew when I saw who beat you up. Now tell me, why on earth did you fight one of our strongest close range fighter's ever recruited in all of our schools record? - (Ms. Peach)
Wow, didn't know Yang had that much strength compared to the rest of the school.
-Well, Ms. Peach, believe it or not, I was hit for no reason whatsoever. - (Juan)
She raised an eyebrow.
-Why are all kids so stubborn? Oh well, Ms. Shao Long also didn't want to fess up, so she has to do a full month of clean up detention starting tomorrow. - (Ms. Peach)
In my old world, they have a saying. "Snitches get stiches". They also have the saying, "Karma is a bitch." No Karma, I'm the Bitch.
-Watch your language.-(Vox)
-Shut up Vox.-(Juan)
-So yesterday at about 5 o'clock in the evening, I took Ruby Rose, her step-sister, out on a date. After stuffing ourselves with almost all types of cakes and sweets imaginable, we went to a club called The Three Bears to dance before the last shuttle went to Beacon. Seeing that the Dj was lacking in any sort of crowd control, I decided to oust the Dj and to, "get the club going", which I totally did, by the way. After returning to the dancefloor, I arrived to see her out drinking an adult 6'8" man in pure, strawberry themed drinks. I brought her back before curfew at 12, but her sister was enraged that I got her sister drunk and that I had more sinister intentions. I denied, she got angrier, I denied again, she punched, and I punched back. Yang then proceeded to destroy me in a one sided slaughter. - (Juan)
In terms of a one-on-one fight, she would obviously beat me. Not only did I not have Amp, my semblance did squat for me, and I still had to take it easy because of the whole entrance exam fiasco. Her semblance, on the other hand, gave her more power the more I fought. I had burns on my chest to prove it.
-Is that all? - (Peach)
-I mean, after she knocked me out, I don't have any idea on what happened. - (Juan)
She just looked at me with pity.
-Well, other than Pr. Goodwitch having to separate the fight and sending you to the clinic, nothing much did happen. Meh, the security cameras will tell the rest. - (Peach)
She walked back to the door and started to open it.
-I would say to stay away from Ruby, but judging from your love-struck face, you wouldn't listen. At least try not to fight for your life three times a week? - (Peach)
-You think I like getting beat up to an inch of my life for fun?-(Juan)
-Well, being a masochist is nothing to be ashamed of…-(Peach)
I threw her the pillow. She caught it and lightly tossed it to a chair next to the wall.
-Get out; I'm going to change.-(Juan)
She stuck her tongue out at me and left.
Now I just need to get my clothes. Today was Saturday, so I had no classes. Today was the perfect time to renovate my room. I should go to the warehouse and buy materials to build a new bed. Hammer nails, saw, wood, and a chair. Maybe I could even incorporate some metal sheets. Now, where are my boxers…?
Warehouse: 11 am
You got to be kidding me.
Don't get me wrong, the warehouse was fine. It even had the most obscure and hard to find items. What was the problem? The warehouse owners were none other than Bob the Builder and Handy Mandy.
-Hola, mi nombre es Manny. Bienvenido a House Builders, la tienda donde enquentras todo lo nessesario para crear la mejor casa de tus suenos! - (Manny)
Translation-Hello, my name is Manny. Welcome to House builders, the store where you can find everything necessary to make the best dream house!
-Manny, not everyone tan has the ability to talk Sur. - (Bob)
-Don't worry; I understand Sur very well.-(Juan)
Well due to my past life, I was bilingual at a young age.
Something I found interesting was while there were hundreds of characters of hundred different nationalities, there were only 5 languages currently in remnant.
Sur: The Spanish equivalent in Remnant. Sur was another way to say south in Spanish, due to most speakers being in the south. Some speakers are found in Vale and Menagerie.
Norden: The German equivalent in Remnant. Norden was another way to say North in German, due to most speakers being in the North. Fun fact; Weiss knew how to speak Norden due to it being her native tongue. Most speakers are found in Atlas.
Gharb: The Arabic equivalent in Remnant. Gharb was another way to say west in Arabic, due to most speakers being in the Gharb. Most speakers found in Vacuo. Fun fact, me and Velvet know little Alshrq.
Azuma: The Japanese equivalent in Remnant. Azuma was another way to say East in Japanese, due to most speakers being in the East. Ren and Tai-Yang know how to speak Azuma. Most speakers found in Vacuo.
Focal: The English equivalent in Remnant. Focal Means Center, due to most speakers being in the center. Most speakers found in Vale.
The only place you can find all these languages is in menagerie, because almost all Faunus were sent there after the war.
Anyway, back to the conversation.
-I see we got a real Sur in our store. What can I help you with today? - (Manny)
-Just here for a few 2X4s and whatnot.-(Juan)
-Oh, may I ask why? - (Bob)
- Well, I'm making a bed that will save space…- (Juan)
-Say no more.-(Manny)
It was actually kind of terrifying how a man with no aura could drag so many pieces of wood when exited.
-This right here is the plans for a 7 foot by three feet bed. And here is the wood necessary for it.-(Manny)
-Actually, can I take a look at it? - (Juan)
The blueprints aren't bad! If I could elevate this a little, maybe move the bed to the left, and add a desk to the bottom, I would be golden! I quickly took out a pencil and scribbled in my ideas.
-Hey guys, can you add the wood from the additions I made? - (Juan)
-Sure, but it will cost you extra.-(Bob)
Manny went to the back to get the extra wood. While Manny was gone, Bob came up to me.
-You're a student at beacon right? What is a fancy student like you doing making a bed? - (Bob)
-Well, I may look like your average student, but I actually have to sleep alone in a tiny dorm because I was an extra. While everyone got a 15' by 20' room, mine was a refurbished closet room that measures up to 8' to 10' room. It's barely any space for customization.-(Juan)
-So you're trying to save space by using height, huh? Smart move, if a little cramped. You know what they say, if it looks stupid, but works, it's not stupid. Mind if I make a copy of your sketch? - (Bob)
-Knock yourself out. - (Juan)
Just then, Manny came with the pieces of wood in a box and a hand truck to carry it.
-Are you sure you don't want to send the box by delivery?-
-No, I can take it.-(Juan)
I then picked up the box, with some effort. And with a grunt, I left the store, leaving 2,000 Lien on the counter. New bed, here I come.
Beacon Room: 4 pm
After a few measurements and hours of hammering and sawing, I finally made it. I managed to make the bed elevated by 5' and have a desk with a stool at the bottom. The support was on either side of the desk, and hosted the drawers, three on each side. Since the whole thing was 7 feet, I filled the last foot into a closet. The best part was the small window was now facing the desk.
Now I just need to paint the walls and place a Television above the door. Just as I finished cleaning up the room of wood chips and stray nails, my scroll ringed. It was Velvet.
-He-llo.-(Juan)
-Juan, do you have a moment? I need your help with training. - (Velvet)
-I don't know Velvet; I won't be a good sparring partner thanks to Yang.-(Velvet)
-I won't be sparring, I just need stress relief. A little practice with my overcharged semblance wouldn't hurt, right? - (Velvet)
I guess it couldn't hurt.
-I guess I just can't say no to my sister. Where do we meet? - (Juan)
-In the Forest of initiation.-(Velvet)
-You do know that place is off limits for a first year's right? - (Juan)
-But only for the first half! Plus, my whole team of second years is going to be there. There's nothing to worry about! - (Velvet)
There was a Pause.
-Are you positive your team can be trusted? If they get a power up in the form of a Remix, they will be our responsibility. Anything terrible they do with their powers will be over our heads. After hearing this, do you still want them to be powered up? - (Juan)
There was another pause.
-Y-yes. They have my full trust.-(Velvet)
-I'll meet you there. - (Juan)
Yay, team CVFY get their semblances. You guys should be able to guess the powers and where they are from. Anywhere is fair game! That means books, comics, movies, shows, cartoons and anime.
