Lie Ren was never much of a morning person. In fact, he'd be perfectly content to sleep for a while longer but it seemed fate had other plans when he was forced from his slumber by two factors one the feeling of someone watching him and two…

"DENEB!"

The sound of shouting and someone hasing someone else around. He begrudgingly forced his eyes to open and was greeted with the sight of a familiar orange haired girl with turquoise eyes staring down at him.

"Wake up lazy butt!" She cheered then zipped off.

Ren forced himself up with a groan at his friend's antics as she proceeded to jump around singing "~It's morning! It's morning! It's morning it's morning~!"

This source of endless energy was Nora Valkyrie his childhood friend. Her get up consisted of a white sleeveless top with a heart shaped hole under a black vest with a collar with silver armour over it and a touch of blue and red straight down the middle. On her arms were white sleeves and pink fingerless gloves and around her waist was a mid-thigh length pink skirt and white and pink shoes. Just try and guess her favourite colour.

Ren himself wore a get up that many would point out as more traditional. It consisted of a dark green tailcoat with longs sleeves with black and gold and pink around the sleeves. With white pants and black shoes. His hair was black with a magenta streak and pulled back into a long tail.

The round of running behind made him look over his right shoulder to find the source of what woke him up. He saw a young man, probably a year or two older then himself dressed in a black robe with silver gauntlets complete with fingers. He had green armour over his chest and back and a headband with silver plate with a diamond shape. His had tanned skin, green eyes and a brown hair that grew past his shoulders that was pulled into a tail at the back with a neon green streak behind his ear. He held up his hands in a calming gesture "Y-Yuuto calm down."

"Calm down?!" Ren looked over and saw an angry teen around his age who he assumed to be Yuuto. He wore green chest plate with a gold Y on his chest and shoulders. On his upper quarter of his arm he had green armour and on his lower arms he had green armour with yellow rings around the wrists and black fingerless gloves underneath the armour he wore a black elbow length shirt. He had green armoured boots over black pants. He had brown hair but it wasn't nearly as long.

He held an alarm clock in his right and pointed it at his target "I told you to set the alarm clock an hour earlier so I could get ready!"

"B-b-but Yuuto you need to be well rested for the initiation", Deneb defended.

"Baka!" Yuuto threw the clock at Deneb's head were it struck his forehead making him fall back.

Ren gave another sigh and wondered where he'd find the nearest coffee machine while Nora turned back to him a smile still plastered to her face.

"I can't believe we've been at Beacon for a full twenty-four hours!" Nora continued as Ren brushed his teeth "Not that I thought we'd get kicked out or anything I'm mean you're the perfect student and I'm…well I'm me!"

"Ack!" Ren looked out of the corner of his eye while Nora turned towards the grunt and saw the two from before the boy in green armour with his right arm wrapped around his friend's neck in a choke hold while in his left he held up a bottle.

"Why'd you buy this?! Its BABY shampoo!"

"But Yuuto it's good for your scalp!" Deneb managed to choke out.

"ARRRGH!" Yuuto then made them fall backwards onto the floor.

Nora turned back to Ren as if nothing had happened "But it's crazy you know?"

"We've been friends for soooooooo long" Nora was brushing her hair while Ren was securing his sleeping bag "What are the chances that we'd still be together…well not together-together."

"What did I tell you about moving my stuff around with out telling me!"

"But Yuuto someone could have tripped over it!"

"AAAARRRRHHH!"

Deneb run past her but soon got tackled to the floor by an angered Yuuto.

Nora just ignored them and continued "Not that I'm saying you're not handsome you are handsome but that just be weird…right?"

"Right. What was I thinking?" Nora asked with a pancake hanging from her mouth while Ren slowly cut a stack of the same delicious food "But still I hope we end up on the same team together."

"You put shiitake in my omelette?!"

Deneb ran past stopping to Ren's left then turned round "But Yuuto its good for you!"

"RAAAAH!" Yuuto ran past his arm out stretched and knocked Deneb onto his back while he kept running.

Nora slurped up her pancake then got an idea then put her hand on Ren's shoulder "Ooooh! We should come up with some sort of plan to make sure end up on the same team together. What if we bribe the headmaster?" She then removed her hand and placed it on her chin "No that won't work he has the school."

"I know! We'll have some sort of signal" Nora explained while she zipped around while Ren retrieved his weapons from his locker "like a distress signal" She gasped excitedly "A secret signal so we can find each other in the forest" She zipped to Ren's right and asked "Can you imitate a sloth?"

"HOW do you mix up locker 203 with locker 555?!" They turned and saw, surprise surprise, the same pair of boys, Deneb rubbing the back of his head in embarrassment while Yuuto shook his head with his hands on his hip.

"I'm sorry Yuuto."

"Just...Just forget it" Yuuto waved it off evidently using up is anger for the day, for now atleast, then start walking past him "Come on it got to be round her somewhere. Looks like you got off lucky when it came to weapons Deneb."

Deneb looked at his palms then smiled "Hmm". He then turned back to see Yuuto go round a corner "Oh Yuuto!" He ran after him.

Ren turned back to the locker and looked at his friend "Nora."

Nora zipped to his left "Yes Ren?"

Ren held up his Stormflower pistols then slipped them into his sleeves "I don't think sloths make a lot of noise."

"...That's why its PERFECT! No one will suspect we're working together."

Ren closed the locker with a small smile at his friend's endless positive energy "Come on Nora, let's go."

"But not together-together", Nora skipped after him with a giggle.

"Wonder what those guys are so worked up about?" Ruby asked as the two past her.

"Oh who knows?" Yang replied behind her "So you seem awfully chipper this morning."

"Yep no more awkward small talk or getting to know you stuff" She reached into her locker and pulled out the folded up Crescent Rose "Today I get to let my sweetheart do the talking."

She started cuddling the instrument of death as her sister spoke up "Well remember Ruby your not the only one going through initiation. If you want to grow up you need to meet new people and work together."

"Ugh!" Ruby hung her head with a groan then looked back up at Yang "You sound like Dad!" She placed Crescent Rose back in the locker "Ok first of all what does meeting people have to do with fighting" she folded her arms "Secondly I don't need people to help me grow up. I drink milk!"

"But what about when we form teams?"

Ruby turned her back to her arms still folded and spoke nervously "Um..I don't know. I...I'll just be on your team or something."

"Maaaybe you should try being on someone else's team", Yang suggested while nervously playing with her hair.

"My dear sister Yang" Ruby stepped up and pointed at the brawler then placed her hands on her hips "Are you implying that you do not wish to be on the same team as me?!"

"What?! No of course I do", Yang waved her hands defensively in front of her while Ruby folded her arms "I just thought...I don't know that it would help you...break outta your shell."

"What the?! I don't need to 'break out of my shell' that's absolutely-!"

"Ridiculous!" Jaune finished for her as he passed by looking a sheet of paper "There's no way I put my gear in locker 636 yesterday I would remember having to count that high. Oh! Why'd this have to happen to day?!"

As he groaned he passed Weiss who was standing next to a red haired girl who was just finishing putting on her armour.

Said girl was quite taller then Weiss with her red hair pulled back into a waist length ponytail with a gold headband with small emeralds held by chains. She wore armour on her torso that exposed her muscular shoulders. Around her waist was a red drapery that hung down to her ankles over a black miniskirt and held in place by a black belt with two pouches at the back and a round bronze plate at the front with the image of a spear and shield, her emblem. She wore bronze armour in her legs, which started at her mid thigh and went into her black heeled boots, and a guard on her left arm. Speaking of arms she had black long sleeved gloves that stopped halfway between her elbows and shoulders with a bronze armlet with a wave pattern above the one on her left. She had green eyes framed by eye shadow of the same shade.

"So Pyrrha have you given any thought to whose team you'd like to be on?" Weiss asked "I'm sure everyone must be eager to unite with such a strong, well known individual such as yourself."

"Hmm" Pyrrha cocked her head in thought then turned back to the heiress and replied "I'm not quite sure. I was planning on letting the chips fall where they may."

"Well...I was thinking maybe we could be on a team together."

"Well that sounds grand" Pyrrha gave a smile and swung her fist in an excited manner before placing back on her hip like her right hand.

"Great" Weiss replied while thinking "This will be perfect. The smartest girl in class combined with the strongest girl in class. Together we will be unstoppable. I can see it now we'll be popular. We'll be celebrities. We'll get perfect grades! Nothing can come between us now!"

"You know what else is great?" asked a familiar voice that snapped Weiss out of her plotting for school domination, with dark clouds,thunder and lighting no less. Weiss turned (After making one of the oddest expressions the author has ever seen in animation) and saw Jaune leaning against Pyrrha's locker between the amazon and herself. He then gestured at himself and continued "Me Jaune Arc, nice to meet cha."

Weiss folded her arms in annoyance "You again?"

"Nice to meet you Jaune" Pyrrha greeted as she stood to Weiss' left.

"Yeah yeah" Jaune gently pushed the red head aside then stood next to Weiss making a show of flexing arms "So Weiss couldn't help but over hear your fondness of me the other day."

Weiss rested her forehead on her palm "You've got to be kidding me?"

"Don't worry no need to be embarrassed" Jaune said completely missing the icy girl's tone as he folded his arms "So been hearing rumours about ~teeeaaaams~ I was thinking you and me would make a good one. What'd say?"

"Actually" Pyrrha spoke up reminding the 'smooth talking' boy that she was present "I think the team's are comprised of four students each so..."

"You don't say" Jaune interrupted then stepped up the amazon "well hot stuff play your cards right and maybe you could join up with the winning team."

"Jaune is it?" Weiss step in between the two taller students and pushed Jaune back then turned to him "Do you have any idea who your talking to?"

"Not in the slightest Snow Angel."

"This is Pyrrha."

"Hello again!" she waved.

"Pyrrha graduated top of her class at Sanctum" the heiress bragged.

"Never heard of it" Jaune shrugged.

"She won the Minstral Regional Tournaments four years in a row. A new record".

"The what?"

Weiss blinked then angrily waved her arms in frustrations while Jaune and Pyrrha both stepped back to avoid being hit "She's on the front of every Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Flakes box!"

"That's YOU?!" Jaune gasped then pointed at Pyrrha who looked a little sheepish as she was finally recognized "They only do that for star athletes and cartoon characters!"

"Yeah it was pretty cool" Answered Pyrrha with smile that soon turned into disappointment "sadly the cereal isn't very good for you."

"So after hearing all of this do you really think your in a position to ask HER to be on your team?"

"I-I guess not" Jaune answered as he hung his head "Sorry."

"Actually Jaune" Pyrrha stepped up and put reassuring hand on his shoulder "I think you'd make a great leader."

Jaune perked up immediately at the champion's praise "Oh stop it!"

"Seriously please stop it" Weiss walked up behind Jaune hands on her hips "This kind of behaviour should not be encouraged."

"She's right you know" a fourth voice spoke up and the trio turned and saw a familiar young man in blue armour with glasses walk round the corner from the lockers on the other side of the row to their left.

"Oh...you" Weiss said unenthusiastically.

Urataros just smirked and adjusted his glasses then walked over to them sarcastically "I mean being friendly?! What do you think this is a school?" His eyes looked up and he counted off with his fingers "Let's see: teachers, class rooms, sparring fields, a headmaster, the word 'academy' in the name" He looked to Weiss "Nope definitely not a school."

Weiss' fists shook with anger at her sides "Why you-!"

"Oi Kame-ko!" The four looked to where Urataros came from and saw Momotaros around the corner, his right hand placing his Momotarosword II on his back while his left shut the locker door "I told ya if your gonna start a fight at least invite me."

"Yes Senpai I remember" Urataros gave an annoyed sigh and the red swordsman walked up to join them.

As Momotaros joined them he noticed Jaune and nodded at him "Yo Hakimasu-ko."

"Hey Momotaros" Jaune replied while Urataros snorted in amusement and Pyrrha looked between Jaune and Momotaros with a confused look before turning back to the blonde.

"Um why did he just call you 'puke boy'?"

"Please don't ask" Jaune begged as he hung his head while the eyes of the other two boys widened in surprise.

"You speak Nihon tongue?" Urataros asked.

Pyrrha shrugged sheepishly and held her finger up like she was holding something small between her index finger and thumb "A little bit. Just a few words and phrases I picked up from places where it's spoken."

"Well that was unexpected" Urataros commented.

Momotaros gave an impressed whistle before looking over his shoulder in the direction of his locker "Oi! Kuma! Gaki! Come over here would ya!"

Urataros meanwhile walked over to the Minstralian champions and asked "So how much Nihon do you know Miss...Pyrrha was it?"

"Yes it is and only few words and you are?"

"Urataros lovely to meet you" he said with a charming smile.

"How do you NOT know her?!" Weiss demanded catching the others attention as she gestured to the red head "She's Pyrrha Nikos! The Invincible Girl! Four time champion of Minstral Regional fighting tournament!"

Urataros shrugged "Maybe because we're not stalkers?"

"What?! I am NOT a stalker I just did my research" Weiss defended folding her over her chest and looking away from them eyes closed.

"So you researched a girl you never even met until today?" Weiss looked at Urataros from the corner of her eyes and glared when she saw him wearing a smile that showed how much he was enjoying messing with her "Sounds like a stalker to me."

"You-" The heiress growled to the smirking boy

Pyrrha attention meanwhile was on the conversation she was having with Momotaros "So 'champion' huh? You good in a fight?"

Pyrrha shrugged "I just...do my best."

Momotaros gave a tooth showing smirk and he cracked his knuckles "Well how about you and me have a fight some time?"

Pyrrha nodded "Well that sounds like fun."

"Didn't you hear what I said?!" Weiss demanded.

"Heard? Yes. Care? No" the spikey haired boy replied.

Weiss gave a frustrated growl when another voiced spoke up "What is it Momonji?"

Two more boys walked in from the direction Momotaros came from one with muscular arms folded the other skipping at his side while his head bobbed along to the music coming from his headphones.

Weiss quietly muttered "Please don't be like yesterday. Please don't be like yesterday."

Momotaros pointed his left thumb at Pyrrha "Wanted you guys to meet Victory girl here."

"Hello", the red head waved at the two.

Ryutaros gave an excited gasp, took his head phones off his ears pulled on Kintaros' arm then pointed and looked at Pyrrha "Kuma-chan! Kuma-chan! It's the Marshmallow flakes girl!"

"Are you kidding me?!" Weiss demanded.

Ryutaros then skipped over to Pyrrha shoving Momotaros out of the way "OI!" the looked up at the amazon "Can you sign my cereal box later?" He put his hands together as if he was praying "PLEASE."

Pyrrha looked down at the purple dressed boy and blinked in surprised that not one but two people in a row recognized her as a cereal mascot rather than a world class fighter let alone want her signature for it. Surprise soon changed into an amused smile and she placed her hands on her hips "I don't see why not."

"YAY!" Ryutaros threw his arms in the air the jumped back with a twirl, put his head phones back on and proceeded to do a little dance.

"Well he's an energetic one", Pyrrha said to Kintaros with an amused chuckle.

"You don't know the half of it."

Urataros then walked up the gold clad Faunus' right "She also knows a few words of Nihon."

"Really?" he asked looking first to his blue dressed friend then to Pyrrha with new interest.

Pyrrha did the same 'little bit' gesture with her hand "Just a little."

"As I asked before please stop encouraging them" Weiss begged Pyrrha then Jaune was back in front of her.

"Well it sure sounded like Pyrrha's on board for team Jaune. Spots are filling up quick." Jaune pick up as if they were never interrupted Momotaros and Urataros exchanged a look form the corners of their eyes that said 'Wow' "Now I'm not supposed to do this...but may I could pull some strings. Find a place for you. What do you say?"

"Alright! That's a bit to close", Weiss justifiably said as Jaune leaned into her space before standing up straight and put his hands on his hips "Pyrrha a little help please."

Jaune turned towards the other girl and his eyes widened before a spear caught him on his hood and pulled him along with it "Wooaaaaah!"

Pyrrha waved the direction Jaune went "I'm sorry!"

"Wow", Urataros turned to Momotaros "You were right Senpai those are some pretty bad lines?"

"I told you so" the temperamental swordsmen replied while Ryutaros kept dancing and Kintaros fell asleep standing up.

Then Goodwitch's voice came over the announcer "Will all first year students please report to Beacon cliff for initiation. Again all first year students report to Beacon cliff immediately."

"Come on Pyrrha" Weiss said as she walked away.

"Coming" she turned to Momotaros and Urataros and waved "See you all later. Best of luck" The two returned it with a casual wave and watched as she went up to Jaune and pulled her spear out of the wall "It was nice meeting you."

"Likewise" Jaune replied as she left with a defeated sigh.

"Having some trouble there lady killer?" Yang asked as she and Ruby walked up the latter offering a hand to help Jaune up.

"Heh That's an understatement Goldilocks" Momotaros said to the brawler as he walked up with his hands on his hips.

"I don't understand" Jaune groaned "My dad said all women look for is confidence. Where did I go wrong?"

"Snow angel proooobably wasn't the best start", Yang said as left for the cliff while Ruby helped Jaune up.

"Your father was partially right um Jaune right?" said Urataros as he walked up and put a hand on Jaune's shoulder "Confidence is important but its only part the art of charm. If want I could take you under my wing?"

Momotaros smacked him on the back of the head "Knock it off Kame-ko the last thing we need is another you."

Urataros removed his hand from Jaune's shoulder, adjusted his glasses and turned to face Momotaros "At least I'm smart enough to mentor someone Senpai."

"What was that?!" Momotaros growled in reply right in Urataros' face.

Ruby and Jaune exchanged a nervous glance then looked back at the two then Ruby noticed something. While the four boys had plenty of differences, voice, height (the one in gold was bit taller then Momotaros and the blue one while the purple one was shorter), the different coloured streaks in their hair, they each the exact same face.

Suddenly the purple boy snapped her out of her thoughts "Hey! Your the explosive girl from yesterday!"

Ruby gave a chuckling Jaune and Momotaros an annoyed look then looked back at the purple boy "Uh yeah I guess. Hey are you four like related or something?"

The four boys looked at each other then back to her.

"Hell no."

"Nope."

"Your quite mistaken."

"Why would you think that?"

"Well uh?"

"What are you four doing?" A new voice asked. The four boys' widened and they slowly turned and there standing with her hands on her hips was the girl Ruby saw on the airship.

"H-Hana-chan" Urataros decided to speak with noticeable fear in his voice "We were just..."

"Going to the cliff" Hana interrupted "Like we were told to" then after pause finished with "NOW!"

"YES MA'AM!"

The four chaotically ran out of the locker room as if the hounds of hell were on their tail, which from their point of view they were, shoving each other aside to get out first. Hana followed after them muttering about dealing with four idiots without peace leaving Ruby and Jaune behind.

"Well...that happened."

"...Yeeeaaah."

"Come on Jaune let's go."

Beacon cliff over looked a vast green forest on the edge of the Kingdom of Vale. The students stood in a line on square pads with the academy symbol on them before Professor Ozpin who held is signature coffee mug with Professor Goodwitch to his left scroll in hand.

"For years you have trained to become warriors and today you abilities will be a evaluated in the Emerald Forest."

Goodwitch then spoke up "Now I'm sure some of you have heard rumour about the assignment of teams. Well allow us to put an end to your confusion. Each of you will be given teammates. Today."

"What? Oh" An already nervous Ruby groaned as she stood between Yang and Jaune at the right end of the line while at the left end Yuuto and Kotaro exchanged a knowing look while Momotaros smirked before Ozpin spoke up again getting their attention.

"These teammates will be with you for the rest of your time here at Beacon. So it is in your best interest to be paired with someone with whom you can work well."

These words did not help socially awkward Ruby's nerves as she bit her lip while Ryutaros turned to Urataros, Momotaros, Kintaros and Deneb on his left "Better hope you don't get stuck with Momotaros."

"You're asking for it Gaki" Momotaros growled shaking his fist while the others chuckled with Deneb making an effort to hide his laughter while Hana to Ryutaros' right just rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"That being said" The headmaster added "The first person you make eye contact with after landing will be your partner for the next four years."

Ruby froze wide eyed then shattered out of her frozen state "What?!"

"See I told you" Nora said as she put her hand Ren's shoulder.

"Knowing my luck I'll end up with either a total jerk or someone completely useless" Kotaro muttered seemingly to his sword.

"They'd better be good in a fight" Momotaros said as he popped his knuckles eagerly.

"Now I REALLY hope I don't get stuck with you Momotaros" Ryutaros chirped while Momotaros just glared at the boy.

"As long as there's a pretty girl on my team I don't think I'll have a problem" Urataros said.

"Oh no" Deneb turned to Yuuto on his left "Yuuto what will we do?!"

Yuuto just waved away his friend's worry as he did a final check on his armour "Easy Deneb it'll work out."

"But but Yuuto" Deneb continued "What if things don't-"

"Deneb!" Yuuto wacked him on the top of his head then checked his wrist guards while shaking his head "Just wait and see it'll work out."

Ozpin spoke up again "After you've partnered up. Make your way to the northern end of the forest."

The students looked out over the vast view of green to the mountains at the far side.

"You'll meet opposition along the way. Do not hesitate to destroy everything in your path or you will die."

Jaune gave a nervous chuckle then gulped while Nora gave an excited grin to Ren but it turned into a small smile when she saw her friend was focused on Ozpin. On the other side of the line the reaction were more varied as Momotaros chuckled excitedly, Yuuto and Kotaro exchanged a smirk, Urataros adjusted his glasses with a small smirk, Kintaros slapped his cheeks to psych himself up, Ryutaros bounced up and down on the spot, Deneb gave a nervous glance at Yuuto and Hana just rolled her eyes at the boy's antics.

"You will be monitored and graded for the duration of your initiation" He looked over to Goodwitch "But our instructors will not intervene" He looked back to the group "You will find an abandoned temple at the end of the path containing several relics. Each pair will choose one and return to the top of the cliff. We will regard that item as well as your standing and grade you appropriately. Are there any questions?"

Jaune raised his hand "Uh yeah uh sir-"

"Good" Ozpin cut him off "Now take your positions."

And they did so Kotaro drew the Macheteddy and gave it a quick twirl before he was launched into the air. Yuuto drew his weapon, a large custom sword called the Zerogasher, gave it a quick swing then followed Kotaro, Deneb looked after Yuuto then looked down at his feet then shook his head and held up his hands fingers pointed out like guns then followed suit "WHOOOOOAAAA!"

"Hmph!" Kintaros popped his neck then did a sumo stomp.

"Yosh!" Momotaros rolled his shoulders "Ikuze! Ikuze! Iku-ZEEEEEEEEEE!"

Urataros just shook his head then reached behind him and took his staff from the back of his belt and flicked his wrist allowing it to unfold behind him and gave it a swirl.

"My turn! My turn!" Ryuutaros giggled excitedly as he twirled round while taking his gun from his back over his right shoulder and struck a pose before he was sent flying "WEEEEEEEEEE!"

Hana just hung and shook her head then dropped into a stance ready for launch.

Meanwhile Jaune was still trying to ask Ozpin a question "Uh sir I've got a um question."

Weiss was catapulted into the air with her saber in hand.

"So this...landing strategy thing" Jaune asked while other's were thrown off the cliff answering the question he was asking "Your dropping us off or something?"

"No" the green dressed man replied "you will be falling."

A kid with a shaved head save for a light green Mohawk, dressed in a dark green hoodies with sleeves torn off and spikey armour on his left shoulder, basically what many would describe as a punk, made a rock and roll hand gesture before he too went flying.

"I see so uh did you hand out parachutes for us?"

Nora followed with an excited "WOOOOOO!"

"No you will be using your own landing strategy."

"Uh huh...yeah."

Yang turned to Ruby and winked then put on her aviator sunglasses before she took off. Ruby in turn turned towards Jaune and smirked before she followed.

"So...uh what exactly is a land strateGEEEEEEEEEEE!"

Ozpin turned round towards the forest and took a sip of his coffee with a small smile of amusement.

High above the vast forest a lone black bird flew on the gentle breeze. It gave an occasional chirp which was the only thing disturbing the peaceful quiet. Until it exploded into cloud of feathers when it was hit by a hooded girl flying at several miles per hour.

"Birdy NO!"

Ruby quickly recovered from her shock quickly and pulled out Crescent Rose in it's gun form and fired off several shots to slow herself down then she rolled in the air and unfolded her weapon into her signature scythe then repositioned herself with her foot forward and caught the blade on a tree branch and spun around in a wheel then unhooked her weapon from the branch and fell to the forest below.

Weiss managed to keep her body straight up as she was launched, no doubt due to her training, and scanned the forest ahead of her for a landing spot. When she saw one she spun around making her fall descend towards the ground faster and summoned a white snowflake symbol resembling her family emblem, one of her Glyphs, landed on it and jumped off it and continued to summon several more to slow her fall.

Momotaros chuckled as he flew through the air his smirk not left since he was fired then flared his Aura. He then rolled into a ball then threw his right foot out forward propelling him toward the ground like a fiery missile. He tore through the thinner tree branches then landed on a small clearing under the forest's canopy with a fiery blast leaving a small crater in the ground and scorch marks surrounding him with a few bits of grasses catching fire. When landed he got down on his left knee, his head bowed.

He stood up and dusted his hands off "Well that was fun."

"Hmm?" His eyes narrowed as he senses something watching him. His eyes did a quick scan around him when he heard a growl behind him. He looked over his shoulder and saw a lone Beowolf slowly making it's way towards him.

"Heh. So you want a piece of me eh?" Momotaros turned his right shoulder to the Grimm and wrapped his fingers around the grip of his sword. The beast snarled and charged at him in answers Momotaros drew his sword and charged "Alrighty then Ikuze!"

Urataros aimed his staff, not an easy feat when your sailing through the air, at up coming tree, turned the middle of the shaft around then pushed the fire button firing the point of the blade at the tree with a thin wire attached to it. Then when the point hit the bark he pushed the button again was pulled towards the tree and was then swung around it in a closing circle as the wire wrapped around the trunk reeling him in.

However it wasn't a thick trunk which Urataros had planned on he then pulled on the wire as it reeled in the wire snapping the tree and sent him flying but this time towards the ground. The point of the blade soon returned to its place as Urataros landed in a roll on the ground then stood up and gave the staff a twirl.

He chuckled than ran off into the forest.

Ren flew through the air head first then did a roll and stabbed the blade of one of his guns into a tree he was passing then used the momentum to move down the trunk in spiral fashion. He landed on his feet and withdrew Stormflower into his sleeves which he then proceeded to dust off. He looked around then heard gun fire from above he looked up and saw a blonde blur fly over head accompanied with a loud "WOOOOHOOO!

Yang was having the time of her life as she rocketed over the forest using her gauntlets to propel her forward while her wild mane of hair waved behind her. As she started to lower in height he fired them again spinning around the fired them again causing her to perform a flip then fire another shot to move to the left. "Yeah!"

"Ali oop!" another shot fired as she dove backwards to wards the tops of the trees and she flew back up and straightened herself out with a laugh. She then descended towards the trees then tucked herself into a ball and turned her back to the trees as she disappeared into the leaves the burst out "Woohooo!"

As she headed for the ground she jumped of one tree with her right foot then another with her left before landing in a roll before running off "Nailed it."

Ryutaros meanwhile got a look at Ruby's method giving him an idea then said aloud to no one "Mind if I copy you?"

He fired several shots from his Ryurevolver II then turned his body sideways and through his feet out jumping off a tree into a roll. He repeated this several times then straightened out and through both his feet out and bounced off another tree towards the ground where he landed in a roll then jumped up, twirled his body around in the air landed on his feat in a crouch then stood feet together and arms out in a v shape "I can't hear you!"

Pyrrha held her shield Akouo in front of her as she flew allowing her to crash through several tree's unharmed. After crashing through a third she landed on a tree branch in the roll then stood up and changed her weapon, Milo, into its rifle form and looked around through the scope. As she scanned the tree tops she saw a familiar blonde boy falling wildly and by the looks of things he had no idea what he was doing.

Pyrrha gave Milo a twirl in her hand and the weapon transformed into a javelin. She drew her right arms back and used the thumb of her unoccupied hand help aim. She then threw, the weapon which fired a gun shot as it was released to aid in propelling it, at the her target as he vanished beneath the tree tops Milo following suit. After a second there was the sound of the javelin shaking as it was embedded in something followed by Jaune shouting "Thank you!"

"I'm sorry!" Pyrrha shouted back and waved before making her way down to the forest floor.

"Gotta find Yang" was what Ruby thought as she landed on the ground in a crouch before running off straight forward "Gotta find Yang. Gotta find Yang. Gotta find Yang, Gotta fiiiind."

"Yang! Yang!" She called but got no reply "Oh this is bad this is really bad" She thought with unease "Oh what if I can't find her? What if someone else finds her first?" She tried to think of her other options then thought with a small smile "There's always Jaune. He's nice" She thought back to when he helped her out in the courtyard then thought of him telling a joke "He's funny" She then thought of him "I don't think he's very good in a fight though." She imagined him going up against a couple of Beowolves...and loosing.

"Oh what about Blake?" Ruby thought about the bow wearing girl "So mysterious. So calm" Then with a small smile imagined the black haired girl surrounded by books "plus she likes books" but then the smile dropped when she imagined trying to talk to the quiet girl as she inched away "Then again I'm not sure I'd be able to hold a conversation with her."

"Momotaros maybe" she pictured the red swordsman with his hands on his hips with a tooth showing smirk "He seems cool" She then pictured him in his signature swords stance "He looks like he could hold his own in a fight" Her smile dropped as she pictured him waving his fists in the air, stamping his feet, eyes white with rage, surrounded by his fiery aura, with bared teeth and horns sticking out of his forehead "But he also looks like he has a temper."

"Wait why'd I give him horns?" Ruby shook her head to regain he focus "Okay who else do I know in this school? There's Yang" She smiled briefly at the thought of her sister "Jaune, Blake, Momotaros, Oh and Kotaro too. I wonder if he'd let me take a look at his sword. Okay who else? WOAH!"

Ruby snapped out of her thoughts when she saw someone right in her path. She dug her feet into the ground skidding to a stop. She opened her eyes and looked up and met a familiar pair of icy blue eyes who blinked and slightly narrowed at her. Ruby gave a small smile in an attempt to be friendly but Weiss just turned around and walked away in the opposite direction.

"Wait! Where are you going?" Ruby called after he then kicked the round dejectedly "We're supposed to be teammates."

Weiss pushed her way through a few bushes and almost tripped when her skirt got caught on a branch. Once out she dusted herself off then heard a series of groans from above. She looked up and saw Jaune pinned high above the ground to a tree by a familiar looking javelin that caught his hood. Jaune noticed her looking at him the smile and waved with an awkward chuckle. Weiss just turned around walked back the way she came causing Jaune to hand his head and groan at his bad luck.

"By no means does this make us friends" She told Ruby as she passed and dragged her along by her hood.

Ruby just threw her arms up in the air and cheered "You came back!"

"Wait! Come back!" Jaune called after them as they disappeared into the forest "Whose going to get me down from here?"

"Jaune" a familiar voice called up. Jaune looked down and saw Pyrrha looking up at him arms folded with an amused smile on her face "Do you...have any spots left on your team?"

"Very funny", The blonde folded his arms and looked away but quickly looked back to her with a thankful smile.

"Now this is what I call a workout" Momotaros cried with his arms out.

He made quick work of the Beowolf he'd encountered when he landed but the sounds of the fight had caught the attention of several nearby Grimm, including two more Beowolves, an Ursa and three falcon sized Nevermores in the branches of the surrounding trees. The Grimm snarled and the Ursa charged and swiped it's paw at the red swordsman who just dove to the side then jumped up in a spin, slicing off the beast's head. He landed on his hands then pushed himself up into the air onto his feet he then spun round just in time to block the paw of one of the Beowolves.

The monster then tried to get him with it's other' paw but Momotaros just jumped up and kicked it away. He was pushed back by the other paw but he dug his feet into the ground then ran up to the beast then stabbed the blade of his sword right in it's chest. The Beowolf cried in pain while Momotaros twisted the blade around then forced it out of the left side of the Grimm's chest then kicked away causing to land on it's back dead.

Before he could catch his breath however the second Beowolf appeared behind him claws ready to swipe down on him. Suddenly a wire trapped around the creature's raised wrist with a blue dart at the end. The beast turned regarded the wire with a confused "Ruh?" before it was yanked back pulling the Grimm along with it into the air. The wire unwrapped from the Beowolf's limb just before it landed on the ground on its stomach with a grunt. The creature was about to push it's self up off the ground when a blue hexagon shaped blade planted it's self in the monster's head killing it. The wire drew it's self back into the opposite end of the staff with the dart returning to it's place at the end of the other blade while its master chuckled.

Momotaros pointed his sword at the new comer and shouted "Oi! Kame-Ko! What's the big idea stealing my kill?!"

Urataros just turned his head slightly then twirled his staff around so the plate that had been in the Beowolf's head was pointing upwards then tapped the point of the downward blade against the bulky foot of his boot. Then as the blade split into it's gun form Urataros spun round towards Momotaros in one legged crouch , the staff over his left shoulder and pushed the fire button.

Momotaros' eyes widened and he held up his sword in front of him to block the shot. But the blast flew past his shoulder and exploded in a cloud of Nevermore feathers with shriek. Momotaros turned towards the cloud with a "Huh?" while the other two aerial Grimm flew up from the branches but were quickly shot down by Urataros.

The staff wielder gave sigh, stood up, pointed the gun barrel skyward and tapped the point of the downward blade against the foot of his boot again closing the blade up. He gave the staff a quick twirl then chuckled "I'm pretty sure that new 'if you get into a fight invite me' rule goes both ways Senpai."

Momotaros just glared at the blue staff wielder then placed his Momotarosword back on his back with a groan and walked past him muttering "What ever Kame."

Urataros smirked and followed his comrade, now partner.

Hana forced her way through the thick bushes. Muttering about her less then pleasurable landing, which she would NOT repeat to anyone for as long as she lived, and when she got out of the bushed her skirt was stuck on one of the branches. "First I have to wake up who knows early in the morning. Then I get thrown of a cliff at ridiculous speeds. Then I have to deal with that mess of a landing" as she walked towards the middle of the clearing she threw her arms out "and on top of ALL that I have to babysit those four IDIOTS same as always!" She topped folded her arms and stomped her foot "Just my rotten luck!"

"Glad to see someone else is having just as good a day as me" Hana's eyes widened and she looked around for the source of the voice but saw no one. "Up here."

Hana looked up and there hanging upside down by the back of his belt on a branch was Kotaro with his arms folded over against his chest "Hey. How's it going?"

Hana blinked then covered her mouth as she snorted in amusement.

"Yeah yeah laugh it."

"I'm-I'm sorry" she giggled into her hand while she held the other up in a pacifying way then looked back up at the upside down boy "H-How did this happen?"

Kotaro raised, or from Hana's point of view lowered, a brow "You're really asking me that?"

"Right, right sorry, but still how?"

The upside down teen shrugged "Honestly I'm not really sure. One minute I'm flying through the air next there was a flock of birds, then I was crashing through tree branchs and before I knew it I was stuck right here."

Hana looked around "Um where's...?"

"Behind me I think", Kotaro looked over his left shoulder.

Hana tilted her head and looked at the ground behind him and saw the Macheteddy lying on the ground behind the boy.

Hana raised a brow and looked back to Kotaro "Um why doesn't...?"

"Hey Cuz I'd love to give you the full story but I'd prefer to do it when my blood wasn't rushing to my head."

"Oh sorry!" Hana ran under his head and picked up his sword but didn't miss Kotaro muttering.

"So useless it is then."

Hana turned to look at the back of his head "I'm sorry what was that?"

"Uh oh" Kotaro stiffened with his eyes widened and broke out in a sweat when he realized his VERY grave mistake and waved his arms around attempting to quell the girl's infamous temper "Hana that's not what I meant! I wasn't saying your useless! I was saying that-ACK!"

"Ow" Kotaro landed on the ground on his neck thankful that his Aura took most of the force. He then unfolded on to his back and looked up and saw the branch he was stuck on and been cut right through and standing below it was Hana left hand on her hip right holding the Macheteddy which she tapped against her own shoulder if anyone else entered the area they would have sworn they saw the sword trembling in the girl's hand.

"Now" Hana regarded the unlucky teen with a blood freezing glare she normally reserved for the usual four idiots she hung around "What was that you were saying?"

"I can see why those four all hold you in such...fearful regard" He managed to groan out.

"What's the hurry?" Ruby asked as followed after Weiss who was several steps ahead of her.

"I will NOT let my mission be delayed because your too slow" the heiress answered back then looked backward to the path "I swear if I get a bad grade because of your" Weiss was cut off as Ruby suddenly appeared in front of her with a wide smile and her hands up in front of her like she was imitating a cat "What the-?!"

"I'm not slow see" Ruby pointed at her thumb at herself the put her hands on her hips proudly "You don't have to worry about me."

Weiss looked back over her shoulder to where the red hooded had been standing "When did-?"

"Weiss just because I don't exactly know how to deal with people doesn't mean I don't know how to deal with monsters" The heiress looked back to her arms folded when Ruby suddenly put her arms over her shoulder, much to Weiss' displeasure "Your about to see a whole different side of me today Weiss and after it's all over your going to be like" She held out her right hand and slowly moved for dramatic effect "Wow that Ruby girl is really, really cooool" Weiss rolled her eyes then Ruby added "And I want to be her friend."

She then ran off leaving behind a cloud of rose petals that Weiss waved out of her face. Then she heard the sound of something moving through the bushes and placed her hand on her hip and called "You may be fast but you still excel at wasting time."

There was no reply and suddenly Weiss noticed how quiet things had gotten "Ruby?"

The sound of the leaves being rustled returned and Weiss called once more "Ruby?"

This time she got a reply in the form a low growl and more rustling. Weiss' sensed various eyes on her and as she looked around she saw said eyes, which were red and glowing, peak through the bushes. Hearing another growl she turned to face it and saw a large Beowolf step out of the bushes.

"Ruby!" Weiss called as the Grimm roared.
