The airship finally reached Beacon and everyone got off, the first one being the unimpressive blonde jabroni was barfing the entire trip, whose first stop was the trash can, depositing whatever was left in his stomach into the receptacle. "Well, sucks to be that kid. I would say I feel bad for him, but I'd be lying." Sai said as we walked past him and towards the school.
"You can say that again." I said, and then we stopped in front of the school, looking at it in awe. "Oh my shit!" I exclaimed.
"Wow!" The twins said in awe.
"Nice digs." Nicolas agreed.
"Yeah. Something tells me I'll like it here." Damion agreed.
"Damn. And I thought our house was impressive." Sai said, nudging Serena.
"Right?!" She said, looking at it with stars in her eyes.
"I certainly won't mind living here for the next 4 years." Selene said.
Less than 10 feet ahead of us, the two sisters from before, who we now knew as Yang and Ruby, were also admiring the impressive site of the castle-like academy. "The view from Vale's got nothing on this." Yang said, then watching as her sister started freaking out and swooning in excitement over other students' weapons having to pull her back in order to keep her from wandering off.
"A girl who's got a thing for weapons. Guaranteed her and Nisha would get along very well considering the latter is a weapons otaku." I said.
"True. Though she prefers to be called a weapons enthusiast." Brandyn said.
"No, now she prefers to be called an 'enthu-Sai-ist.'" Sai corrected with a smirk, bouncing his eyebrows twice.
"Of course." I sighed.
"Oh, please, those weapons are nothing. HERE'S something two swoon over." Serena said, pulling out her two bladed fans that, should she press the button on the handle, would launch the blades at her enemies, effectively blending Kitana and Kratos into one style. And on her back, she carried another weapon: A much larger fan combined with a bazooka.
"What about mine?" Selene asked, unsheathing her weapons, a pair of escrimas that launch each launch a different type of dart: the left one shooting darts dipped tipped with the incredibly potent poison: Wolfsbane, Sun Tzu style. The second one was the safer one, launching sleep darts instead. And both of them housed on the end electric conduits, which will come as a shock to whoever gets hit by them.
"We're having a show and tell? Get a load of this bad boy!" Brie said excitedly, as she pulled a double bladed battle axe/energy staff combo. Staff part is 6'11" and both axe blades is 4'5". The staff part can shoot energy beams from both ends of her weapons.
"All great weapons, girls, but now's not the time." Sai said.
While we were doing this, Yang was encouraging her younger sister to make new friends. "But, why would I need friends when I have you?" Ruby asked.
"Well..." She started. Suddenly, a group of students appeared behind the blonde. "Actually-my-friends-are-here-right-now-gotta-go-catch-up-see-you-later-bye." She said quickly, taking off with the group of students, leaving the younger girl spinning.
"Wow. Some older sister she is. I would never abandon my siblings." I said, wrapping my arms around both the twins' neck tightly.
"Stop, Draco! You're embarrassing us!" Brandyn said, pushing me off escape my grip, as do Brie.
"Yeah, though that wasn't cool by her part." Brie said.
"Agreed." Serena added.
"I don't know, something tells me I'd like that girl." Damion said with a smirk on his face.
"Wait, where are you going?! Are we supposed to go to our dorms? Where are our dorms? Do we have dorms?" She asked repeatedly as she stopped for a moment, still reeling. "I don't know what I'm doing..." She groaned as she fell backwards into a luggage cart, sending cases flying.
Someone was standing over her. "What are you doing?!" She demanded.
"Uh-oh. Tsundere alert." I said, as we walked over to the scene.
"Uh, sorry!" Ruby apologized, getting up on her hands.
"Sorry?! Do you have any idea of the damage you could have caused?" Weiss snapped.
"Uuhhh..." Ruby said unsurely, holding a case.
"Lay off her, alright? She didn't mean topple your crap!" Brie said.
To this, she huffed and picked up one of the many cases on the trolly thing and opened it, pulling out a vial of red dust and closing it quickly. "This is dust! Mined and purified from the Schnee quarry." She said arrogantly.
"Gesundheit." Sai and I said jokingly.
"Uh..." Ruby said, confused.
"What are you, brain-dead?! Dust! Fire, water, lightning, energy!" She said, shaking the vial.
"If you know what it is, then STOP SHAKING IT LIKE THAT!" The fire demon said, urgently. He really hates being blown up.
However, this girl's focus was entirely on the young red clad girl she blamed for what I'd see as nothing, but this chick obviously sees as highly dangerous and almost destroying some of her precious property. "Are you even listening?! Is any of this sinking in?! What do you have to say for yourself?!" She demanded, shaking the vial once or twice more, the dust in the air circling around the younger girl's face and she had a look like she was about to sneeze.
"That can't be good." I said, with both my eyes widened.
"OH SHIT!" Sai said, making a barrier of demon energy in front of us, which shattered after the dust exploded, creating lots of smoke and fire and some lightning, the vial going flying to someone's feet. This was revealed to be a girl reading a book, who reached down and picked up, looking for the owner.
"Damn, everyone okay?" Damion asked, coughing a couple of times, picking himself up off the ground.
"More or less!" I muffled as my head was stuck into the ground.
"What's that?" He asked.
"I think he said 'it's on my chest.'" Nicolas said, pulling my head out of the ground.
"Close enough." I said, cracking my neck, then I realized we're missing a certain Silver Haired Enigma.
"It wasn't as bad as it could've been." Selene said, gently moving Serena off of her.
"Oh, my head... Hey, where's Sai?" Serena asked, looking around for her brother.
"Down here!" He shouted, hanging on the edge of cliff by the tentacles of his Devil Arm, Kracken.
"Hey, Sai, what are you doing, hanging around?" I quipped, causing the fire demon to grow a tick mark.
"Oh haha, real funny Draco!" He snapped, sarcastically.
"Booooo!" Nicolas shouted, giving me the thumbs down and Damion, Serena and Selene just facepalmed at my lame pun.
"Crrriiiinnnnge." Brie said.
And So Sai hoisting himself back up and over the cliff and was looking to strangle me, but we overheard the girl who is now scorched black, yelling at Ruby. "Unbelievable! This is exactly what I was talking about!" She snapped.
"I'm really, REALLY sorry." She said, poking her fingertips together innocently.
"You complete dolt! What are you even doing here?! Aren't you a little young to be attending Beacon?!" The mean bi- I mean girl demanded.
"Wer zum Teufel denkst du zu jemandem jünger dann schreien sind?!" Nicolas snapped in German. Translation: Fuck do think you are to yell at someone younger than you?
"And HOW the hell was her fault?! You're the one who wouldn't stop shaking the damn thing in the first place!" I said.
"Yeah that was mostly your fault. Also, warriors are getting better at a younger age. I watched the first episode, this girl kicked major ass. You probably just got in because you are most likely from a wealthy family that pulled a few strings to get you in. We don't really know what you can do yet." Sai said.
"How dare you! I happened to be a highly coordinated fighter, which I doubt very much this girl is!" She said, glaring at the Silver Haired Enigma before turning back to Ruby. "This isn't your typical combat school. Not just sparring and practice, you know! We're here to fight monsters, so watch where you're going!" She said, crossing her arms and keeping up her arrogance.
"You don't have much friends growing up, do ya?" I asked.
"Hey, I said I was sorry, princess!" Ruby said to the girl.
"It's heiress, actually." The girl who picked up the vial of dust said, walking up to us. "Weiss Schnee. Heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world." She said.
Finally! Some recognition!" Weiss said as if she did something right.
"But is it really deserved?" Sai asked, getting ready to counter when he saw her raise a fist and aim it at him, but the other girl spoke up again.
"The same company infamous for it's contraversial labor forces and questionable business partners." She said.
"Ouch! That'll cost ya some clout points." Brandyn said.
"Ain't a good look for you, fam!" Brie said, smirking.
"What?! How dare- The nerve of-!" Weiss said angrily, but was at a loss for words
"Wiess, Wiess. Contain the calamity that is your mammaries." Nicolas said.
"In others words: Calm yo tits, or the lack thereof in your case." I added, which made everyone bust out laughing.
Weiss was absolutely LIVID by my insult and was going to strike me, but then Sai said, "As for BladeCorp? Least we gave a damn about our employees."
"Same for Castronet." Vamps said.
"Those two dinosaur companies? Ha! Don't make me laugh." Weiss said, arrogantly.
"Funny how you say that, but no matter how you look at it, mostly everything provided here, excluding dust, is handled by BladeCorp. Like weapons and its honest ways of making money. Hell there are BladeCorps stationed all around the world and half of them I own. Thanks to making deals with Sai's father of course. BladeCorp as well as my company CastroNet is another reliable source of management for which people are treated equally. When it comes to reliability and good sources of income, BladeCorp and CastroNet has everyone in the world covered." Damion explained.
"Damn. These companies got mad cloat!" Brandyn said in amazement.
"I know, right!" Brie said, high fiving her fellow twin.
"Not to mention that BladeCorp is responsible for most of the weapons that are here at Beacon and with the military." Sai added.
Weiss was beside herself in anger at this, to which our favorite Silver Haired Enigma decided to pour even more salt to her freshly opened wound. "In other words, our company is so much better than yours. We give away half of our profits and still make more than your company." He said in his own cocky arrogant tone, then gave a smile as if he was about to tell her to have a nice day. Nick and I were practically dying from laughter and Damion was trying to hold it back.
She looked like she was about ready to tear our eyes out, but merely snatched the vial of dust from the girl and was ready to storm off. "Oh, and Weiss? Deanda send a message." I said.
"I don't anyone with that name. Deanda who?" She demanded.
"Deanda my dick, bitch!" I answered, making the guys busted out laughing some more, and while that's happening, the heiress stormed off.
"Someone needs a hug." Nick said.
"Or she needs to get laid, BIG TIME." I said, the guys nodding in agreement.
"As long as the guy is wearing a condom, the thought of her having kids makes me feel nauseous." Damion said, which made the rest of us shuddered at the thought of Weiss breeding.
Ruby still felt bad about the interaction, calling out to her. "I promise I'll make this up to you!" She said.
"Eh, screw her. She a hater." I said, in my gangsta impersonation.
"Yeah, she's got loads of money to cry into and wipe her eyes with." Sai said.
"You mean like in Zombieland?" I asked.
"Bingo." He said, pointing to me without even looking.
Guess I'm not the only one having a rough first day." She said, then turned to the other girl we don't know yet. "So, what's-" She started, then stopped when she saw that the girl was now walking away. She then sighed, dropped to her knees and fell onto her back. "Welcome to Beacon." She said sadly.
Ruby suddenly noticed a shadow over her and looked to see the blonde kid from before standing over her, holding out his hand. "Hey. I'm Jaune." He said.
"Cena?" I asked, a WWE pro wrestler appearing in my mind.
"Ruby." The young girl said as she took his hand and was helped off the ground. She then noticed something. "Aren't you the guy that threw up on the ship?" She asked.
Later...
We were walking along, trying to figure out where the hell we were going, having a conversation at the same time. "All I'm saying is a much more common problem than people let on." Jaune said.
"Sorry, I couldn't here the sound of me NOT caring." I said.
"Look, I'm sorry, Vomit Boy was just the first thing that came to mind." Ruby said.
"And honestly, you did blew chunks at least 5 times ON the ship before we got off and you puked more into that trash can." I said.
"Oh, yeah? Well, what if I called you Crater Face and you Ostrich Guy?" He countered, pointing first to Ruby, then at me, but then I quickly grabbed the back of his head, and spiked him face first into the ground.
"THAT'S what happens." I said, looking down on him.
"RKO! RKO! OUT OF NOWHERE!" Nicolas shouted, in his Jim Ross impression.
"Damn, you done pissed my boy OFF!" Sai said, with Damion nodding.
"Hey, that explosion was an accident!" Ruby said
"And the winter bitch was shaking that dust around everywhere." Serena added.
"If it hadn't been her to sneeze, it probably would've been one of us." Selene agreed.
"Well, the name's Jaune Arc. Short sweet, rolls off the tongue, ladies love it." Jaune said, getting up, while giving himself a rather boastful introduction.
"Really? Because the last person I knew named Jeanne WAS a lady." Sai said tauntingly, referring to the character from Bayonetta, causing him to drop his head.
"Do they really love it?" Ruby asked, clearly not buying it.
"They will. I mean, I hope they will. My mom always says that-" He started, before I interrupted him.
"Dude, stop you're just digging your grave deeper. When your mom tells you something like that, it's usually a lie." I said.
"ALWAYS." Nicolas agreed.
"So... I got this." Ruby said, pulling out her giant scythe.
"Sweet!" I said, getting a closer look.
Jaune, however, jumped back in fear. "Whoa! Is that a scythe?" He asked, pointing at it.
"It's also a customizable, high-impact Sniper Rifle." She said, bringing out it's scope.
"Wha?" He asked, confused.
"... It's also a gun." Everyone else said at once as Ruby did something that made it sound like she was cocking a shotgun.
"Teehee! 'Cocking'!" Chibi me said, who appeared on my shoulder.
"That's cool!" Jaune said, looking at the weapon.
"So, what do you got?" She asked.
"Oh, I've got a sword." He said, unsheathing it, a medieval broadsword.
"Ooh." She said.
"Medieval style, I see you, Jaunny-boy." I said, in a voice of a certain YouTuber.
"Nice DashieXP expression." Sai said.
"I've got a shield, too! It's the sheath for the sword." He said, turning the sheath into a shield.
"So, what do they do?" She asked, touching the shield, which caused it to bounce all around, changing forms, falling to the ground despite Jaune's effort to catch it.
"The shield gets smaller. So when I get tired of carrying it, I can just... Put it away." He said.
"But, wouldn't it still weigh the same?" She asked.
"Yeah, it does." He said, lowering his head.
"Everyone else?" She asked, looking at us. We went down the line and she was amazed by each weapon.
"I'm kind of a dork when it comes to weapons. I did go a little overboard in designing Crescent Rose." She said, cradling the scythe like a baby. Not that I blame her, who DOESN'T do that to their weapons? I know I would.
"Rock-a-bye rifle." Sai said, smirking.
"You made that?!" Jaune said, shocked.
"Of course! All students at Signal design their own weapons!" She said.
"We didn't go to Signal, but all of us made ours." Damion said, to which we nodded.
"Didn't you make yours?" Ruby asked him.
"It's a hand-me-down. My great-great-grandfather used it to fight in the war." He said.
"Sounds more like a family heirloom to me." Ruby said.
"I can appreciate that. My clan has an ancestral weapon, too. It's a double-ended katana- *turns to the 4th wall* picture a katana version of Darth Maul's lightsaber- *turns back* that can pull apart into two separate katanas. Been passed down in our clan for 20 generations now. It's my oldest sister's personal weapon currently, since she's appointed to be the next head of our clan. She cradles it like a baby, too." Sai said, nodding.
"Well, I like it. Not many people have an appreciation for the classics these days." Ruby said.
"Yeah, the classics." Jaune said.
"So, why did all of you help me out back there in the courtyard?" She asked.
"Common decency." Sai said, the rest of us, minus Jaune nodding.
"Eh, why not. My mom always says, strangers are just friends you haven't met yet." He said.
"Like that's not gonna bite ya in the ass or nothing." I said, sarcastically.
"Deadass tho." Brandyn said.
"I see many holes in your mom's logic, no offense." Sai said.
"So, where are we going?" Ruby asked.
We all stopped at this. "Oh, I don't know. I was following you." Jaune said. We all groaned at this. "You think there might be a directory? Maybe a food court? Some sort of recognizable landmark?" He asked. We all groaned each time he said one of these, except Ruby, who laughed. "Is that a no?" He asked.
"That's a no." She said.
"Oh, this is one big clusterfuck." Sai said, annoyed.
"You can say that again, dude." I said.
