A/N: here is ch 8
Also note that I might skip some dialogue here and there… anyway on to the story
'Things that changed when we intervened was mostly a bit minor, however even though it is a minor problem it is a chink in our plan' - Ruby 'Summer' Rose
(Ruby Pov)
As mom lead us towards the auditorium, then later left saying that she is going to be busy now, which I don't get at all… oh wait she got a job here but I wonder what was her position? Anyway I saw Yang waving at me so I told Jaune, and Rip that I have to go, when I was next to my older sisiter, arms crossed she asked me,
"So Ruby how was your day?"
"I can't believe you ditched me!" I said "And after that I exploded!" I said to her as her eyes got wide
"Yikes! What happened?" she asked me
"Well it started when I accidentally stumbled on a rich girl's luggage full of dust, then she yelled at me and I sneezed and everything exploded!" I explained not noticing said rich girl standing behind me with a scowl at her face.
"You!" she growled out, surprising me as I jumped at Yang's arms saying "Oh God its happening again!"
"Wow you really exploded"
As Weiss, after she explained herself chewed me out about the accident earlier and then showing a pamphlet, my mind went blank afterwards then she finished her discussion,
"You really want to making things up to me?" she asked me
"Yes!" I beamed thinking she will forgive me now, but I was wrong as she gave me another pamphlet as she said, "Read this and don't ever speak to me again."
As Yang was about to interject I saw Rip approaching us, clearly lost again… Seriously how unfortunate could she get?
"Ah! Ruby! Zer you are, do you mind me joining you guys, I saw the others and zer is no more space for me." Rip said sheepishly, then she noticed Weiss glaring at her, "And who would be?" she asked Weiss,
"Augh… do I have to explain everything again?" Weiss said "I am Weiss, Weiss Schnee heiress to the Schnee Dust Company" she finished puffing her chest with pride, I saw Rip blinked a few times processing what ice queen just said
"White snow?" Rip said then placed her finger in her chin in thought then she said again holding her hand out as she smiled "Nice to meet you Snow White"
I laughed as Weiss yelled at Rip "E-excuse me!" she raised her voice "Snow White?"
"Vell your name is Weiss Schnee and where I came from Weiss means white and Schnee means snow" Rip explained
"Augh! I am surrounded by idiots" Weiss said as she stormed off away from us.
We stood silently as prof. Ozpin came to the podium to deliver his speech
"I'll… keep this brief." he started "You have traveled here today in search of knowledge, to hone your craft and acquire new skills, and when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look amongst you, and all I see is wasted energy, in need of purpose, direction." I noticed the other students whispering he continued "You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step." as he finished his speech, he looked at us and then added "And as of today we have a new face in our teaching staff, please give hands to prof. Summer Rose"
As we and the other students applaud as mom came into the stage wearing her white cloak and a smile on her face as she waved back, Ozpin continued on as the applause died down, "She will assist the other professors and will be our new guidance councilor." after he said that he left as prof. Goodwitch took the stage she said,
"You will gather in the ballroom tonight; tomorrow, your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed." she simply said as we left, we met up with Rip's companions and we prepared for our initiation tomorrow
As I wrote on my journal, Yang crashes next to me wearing her pajamas saying "Look at this Ruby its like a big slumber party!"
I rolled my eyes "I don't think dad and mom will not approve though"
"Oh come on Ruby! don't be that" she said then eyed on what I am writing "What's that?"
"Just a letter for the gang back at signal" I replied "I kinda promised them that I will tell all about Beacon."
"Aww! that's so cute" she said as I threw my pillow at her then we later noticed Jaune entering and wearing… feetie pajamas? Okay that is so wrong I mean who would wear such outfits?
"Hey Ruby look, look!" I heard a voice said as Aliasse came over with Rip and Cyclonis in tow, wearing a feetie pajamas also, but this one looks like a dog design, as Cylonis just wore a black training bra and jogging pants as Rip wore a gray tank top and pajamas with moon designs on them, strange wear is Kallari? "Do you like my pajamas Ruby?" Aliasse asked me
"Yeah sure it makes you really cute" I replied as she grined widely, then I looked at Cyclonis
"Umm. Hey Cy… wear is Kallari?" I asked her, Cyclonis looked at me with raised eyebrows then said "She went to talk with that girl over there" she said pointing at two figures one lean and standing, which I now recognize as Kallari, wow she looks different without her suit, I thought as she was conversing with a black haired girl with a ribbon on her head,
"Hey its that girl from before…" I said as Yang dragged me to them stating that even I made some friends I need to socialize more as we neared them, both girls notice us coming and stopped all talk as we neared
"Hi there!" Yang said as the ambered eyed girl looked on as Yang gestured me to her "I believe you two already met?"
She looked at me as recognition lit up her eyes "Weren't you that girl that exploded?"
"Yeah… you may call me crater…" I smiled embarrassed "Or.. you could just call me Ruby."
I looked on as she stared then went back to her book to read, as Aliasse yawned then dragged the other three stating that she was sleepy, leaving only me, Yang and the girl with the book alone
Yang started first asking "So… whats your name?"
"Blake" the girl, Blake replied, she sounded irritated as she tried to read,
"Well I liked your bow" Yang continued on "Nice night right?"
"Yes it's lovely, just as lovely as this book… that I will continue to read," she said
As we continued on we were interrupted by Weiss saying that its already late, we never noticed a white figure watching over us from the door, a smile on her face.
(Summer pov)
As I checked on the new students I couldn't help but smile at the soon to be team RWBY, then I glanced at a certain sleeping red head as I felt guilt rushing out,
"I promise this time no one will die at my watch." I said softly, then eyeing my compatriots as they were engaged in a conversation, well mostly Aliasse and Nora who was complimenting her clothes.
I closed the door and headed towards to Ozpin's office as I arrived
"Good evening Summer I hope everything is fine?" he asked me
"Everything is fine Ozpin" I said as he looked at me
"Then I should apologize for any suspicion I may have before reviewing those files Mesirix gave"
"Oh?" I raised an eyebrow "I am glad to hear it Ozpin and don't worry your secret will be safe, but I doubt if Ironwood will be the same as you"
"I know James can be over his head but what he does is for the safety of the knigdoms, well in his opinion."
"I hope we could put some sense into him before the festival, also please, if Qrow asks give him the false data and a few crumbs to make him figure out my identity." I said finally as I head out from his office.
"I will miss Rose, and I wish you good luck on the classes" I nodded and left inside the elevator, I never heard his last comment though,
"This will be quite an interesting year"
A/N:
Done and done, more boring talking but now the hard part, making awesome fight scenes, and I almost forgot that why no one questioned Rip's clothing at all… an insight that I have missed but I'll make her outfit as a combat outfit… well can't complain since Sebastian also fight in his butler uniform…
See you on next chapter
