As we finally managed to find where the entrance ceremony thing, The crew and I were having a brief conversation. "Then I say, "DCU? More like DC EW!"" I said, earning some laughs.
"Ruby! Over here! I saved you a spot!" Yang called, waving to her sister.
"Oh! I gotta go! I'll see you guys after the ceremony!" She said, leaving.
"Hey, wait!" Jaune called as she left, but she didn't turn back. "Great, where am I gonna find another nice, quirky girl to talk to?" He grumbled.
"If you keep this up, you'll find one in the hospital." Sai said, cracking his knuckles.
"There's a lot of space near Ruby and her sister." Selene pointed out.
We all looked and saw she was right. Out of the entire place, that's where the most open space was. "Oh, I'll be damned." I said.
"Too late." Nicolas laughed.
"Good work, Selene. Not right up front, not way in the back where you can't see." Sai said as we walked up.
"Yeah. This is perfect." Brandyn said.
"How's your first day going, little sister?" Yang asked, instantly annoying Ruby.
"You mean since you ditched me and I exploded?" She asked angirly.
"Yikes. Meltdown already?" The blonde asked.
"If only it were that harmless." I said.
"No, I literally exploded a hole in front of the school! And there was some fire... And I think some ice?" Ruby wondered as she explained the story.
"There was." Both Brie and Serena confirmed.
"Are you being sarcastic?" Yang asked in a tone as if she were expecting a joke.
"No way. Thems the truth." Brandyn said.
Ruby scoffed at this. "I wish!" She said.
"Ruby go boom." I said, nodding.
"We all did." Damion said.
"I tripped over a crabby girls luggage, but then she yelled at me! And then I sneezed. And then I exploded! And then she yelled at me again! And I felt really, REALLY bad and I just wanted her to stop yelling at me!" She explained, all the while a certain white-haired chick that doesn't like us appeared behind her.
"Oh, shit- Uh, Ruby?" Sai said, but it was too late.
"YOU!" Weiss shouted, causing Ruby to scream and jump into Yang's arms in fear, bridal style.
"Oh, god, it's happening again!" Ruby cried, closing her eyes and turning her head away from the arrogant heiress. Hey, that's kinda catchy!
"Sure is." Sai said after reading the line above.
"You're lucky we weren't blown off the side of the cliff!" Weiss snapped.
"I was." Sai said, raising his hand a bit.
"Oh my god, you really exploded." Yang said.
"It was an accident!" She said as her sister set her down, then she turned to Weiss. "It was an accident!" She said, until the heiress held out a pamphlet called "Dust for dummies and other inadequate individuals" having a confused-looking dude holding a dust crystal, not knowing what to do with it. "What's this?" She asked.
"Oh, that's just mean." I said.
"Deadass." Brandyn said.
"People who used dust in the first place are dummies if you ask me." Damion said.
Weiss glared at the vampire, but then turned her attention back to Ruby. "The Schnee dust company is not responsible for any injury sustained while operating a Schnee dust company product-" She started, me pulling out a remote.
"We don't care." Sai say, completely fast-forwarding through her explanation, as it was already fast-forwarded.
"Um..." Ruby asked, unsure.
"You really wanna start making things up to me?" Weiss asked.
"Who doesn't? Pissing you off is fun." Sai said, now trying to annoy her. She smacked him in the face, but no sold as he didn't even flinch. "That it? Had enough?" He asked.
"Absolutely." Ruby had said to Weiss at the same time Sai pissed her off.
"Read this and don't ever talk to me again." She said.
"Good. Sounds like a blessing if you ask me." Sai said.
"It would be a blessing if you would stop pestering me!" Weiss snapped, glaring at Sai.
"Know what else it would be a blessing? You growing bigger tits." I said, earning a glare from the white haired heiress with a look of disgust.
"You're such a pervert!" She shouted.
"Eh, no one's perfect." I said in a uncaring tone.
"Look, it looks like all of you got off on the wrong foot. Maybe you could just start over and try to be friends." Yang suggested.
"Nope." Both Brie and Brandyn said, shaking their heads.
Ruby, however... "Yeah! Great idea, sis!" She said, clearing her throat and holding out her hand. "Hello, Weiss. I'm Ruby. Wanna hang out? We can go shopping for school supplies." She said.
Weiss, however, apparently saw this as another opportunity to be a bitch, adding sarcasm to her cynicism. "Yeah! And we can paint our nails and try on clothes and talk about cute boys like tall, blonde and scraggly over there!" She said, not even looking, but pointing over her shoulder to Jaune, who looked over to her.
"Scraggly?" Sai asked, an image of the Pokemon Scraggy appearing in a thought bubble above his head.
"That means thin and bony." Brandyn confirmed.
"That's accurate." Sai said.
"Will you please SHUT. THE. HELL. UP!?" I asked in my Chris Jericho voice, gaining her attention. "You're nothing but a brutal, stuck up, cynical bitch since we've got here!" I snapped.
"What did you call me?!" She demanded.
"What part you don't understand, the bi or the yatch?!" I demanded. "Are you deaf? You retarded or something? Is your brain cells low as your breast size?"
"My what?! Oh no you didn't!" Weiss said with a scowl.
"Oh yes I did, ol' Tinkle Bell sister lookin' ass, hussy. Bring that ass here, hoe. Oh snobby lookin', pixie lookin', scarface havin' ass hoe. Bring that ass here, bitch. You think you better than everybody? Think you're the best in the world? 'Cuz your name is Schnee? What? You came from a shitty company? What? 'Cuz you got scars on your side of your face? Huh? What?! 'Cuz you got money? What?! A lotta money? What?! Whole lotta money? What?! 'Cuz you got a white dress? Lookin' like you were in a bukkage snowmen orgy in a toothpaste factory. Lemme tell you something, Weiss; your name and everything else don't mean a goddamn thing here. So how about you take all of your dust, shine em up real nice, turn them sideways and stick straight up your candy ass!"
"That don't sound too good." Serena said.
"You can say that again." Selene said.
"I'm Draco to the motherfuckin' Bloodgrave, bitch! Better recognized. If not? Then I got two words for ya: SUCK IT!" I said, ended my rant/roast section with a crotch chop.
"I did not see that coming." Nicolas said in shocked.
"Indeed." Damion said as he nodded.
"Damn, my homie with the no chill." Sai said, completely astonished with the rest nodding in agreement.
Weiss now is in a mixed of shocked and anger. She tried to get a word in, but she turned away and walked.
Then, we heard feedback on the mic and someone clearing their throat, looking to the stage to see Ozpin. "I'll... Keep this brief. You have traveled here today in search in search of knowledge. To hone your craft and acquire new skills." He started.
"Please, we already got more skills than we know what to do with, am I right?" Sai asked, confidently, the rest of us laughing quietly and nodding.
"And when you've finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people." He continued.
"Well, ish." Damion said.
"But I look amongst you... And all I see is wasted energy." He added.
"Ouch." I said.
"In need of purpose... Direction." He said.
"Okay, how about forward?" Nicolas asked.
"You assume that knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far." He said.
Of course. From day 1, our clan trains us to balance everything: knowledge, skill, goals and ambition, etc." Serena said.
"It is up to you to take the first step." He finished.
"Very optimistic, isn't he?" Selene asked.
Glynda Goodwitch then took the stage in front of the mic. "You will gather in the ballroom tonight. Tomorrow, your initiation begins. Be ready. You are dismissed." She said.
"I think one thing we all have in common is that we're ALWAYS ready." I said, my group nodding.
"He seemed kind of... Off." Yang said.
"It's almost like he wasn't even there." Ruby agreed.
"Don't know. Haven't talked to him to much to know." Sai said, shrugging.
"I'm a natural blonde, you know." Jaune said, leaning in towards Weiss, who held the bridge of her nose.
"Oi..." My group all groaned at once.
Later...
It was now night and everyone was settling down. Me and the guys were chilling, setting up our little mats in a way to make us more comfortable: I coating mine with blood, Nicolas creating somewhat of a mattress with giant bone hands, Damion giving his a vampiric touch and Sai pulling out a water bed and flopping in. Selene and Serena were settling down where they were and same with the twins. Ruby writing something as Yang flopped down beside her. "It's like a big slumber party!" She said.
"I don't think Dad would approve of all the boys, though." Ruby said uncaringly.
"I know I do." Yang said slyly, purring, looking specifically towards Damion... Until, unfortunately, Jaune blocked her line of sight from the shirtless vampire, wearing full-body pajamas and... Full-screen.. Yep, matching bunny slippers. He noticed her looking in his direction and gave a sly smile, to which she made an "ew" face and noise, looking back to her sister.
"Oh! She just looked RIGHT AT YOU and went 'ew!' Damn, it must suck to be you!" I laughed at him.
"Aw, that's so cute!" I heard Yang say in a cutesy voice, probably to tease Ruby, who through her pillow into Yang's face.
"Shut up! I didn't get to take my friends with me to school! It's weird not knowing anyone!" She said in somewhat of a pouty tone.
"What about Jaune and all those other guys you met. They're nice. Especially that Damion guy." She said, shooting another look at the vampire.
"Dude, she's eyeing you like a dingo to a human baby." I said.
"Of course. The ladies can't keep their eyes off me." He said, to which I rolled my eyes.
"There you go! That's 9 friends! 100% increase!" Yang said cheerfully.
"Pretty sure Weiss counts as a negative friend. Down goes the hundred." She said.
"I don't see what's the big deal. No one liked that chick for the ENTIRITY of the first season." I said, the everyone else nodding.
"There's no such thing as negative friends! You just made 7 friends and one enemy." Yang said, Ruby throwing her other puppy pillow into Yang's face. Quite obviously that didn't help her. "Look, it's only been one day. You have friends all around you. You just haven't met them yet." She said.
Suddenly, we all heard a noise like a match being struck and looked to see the girl from before who dissed the Schnee Dust Company and praised Bladecorp, sitting in a corner, reading a book. "That girl..." Ruby said.
"Hello, sexy." Nicolas said slyly.
"You know her?" Yang asked Ruby.
"I'd like to." Nicolas said in a sly tone once again.
"Easy there, Casanova." I told him.
"Not really. She saw what happened this morning, but left before I could say anything." Ruby explained.
"Well, now's your chance!" She said, standing up and dragging her sister over to the girl, who looked up from her book to see what the commotion was. "Hello~!" She said in a sing-song tone, finally letting go of Ruby. "I believe you two may know each other?" She asked as Ruby turned away with her arms crossed, not happy about being dragged over and forced to try and make a new friend.
"Aren't you that girl that exploded?" The girl asked.
With us...
"Well shit. That's gonna suck if that's what everyone remembers her for." I said, with the guys nodded in agreement.
With them...
"Uh, yeah! My name's Ruby." She said, holding out her hand, but the girl looked back down to her book, so she stood up again. "But you can just call me crater-" She started, rubbing the back of her head nervously.
The screen quickly splits between the guys, Serena and Selene and the twins at that moment. "Ooh!" We all said, knowing that wasn't a good line.
"Actually, you can just call me Ruby." She said.
"This is very entertaining, I gotta admit." I said.
"Okay." The girl said, not looking up from her book.
"What are you doing?" Yang asked.
"I don't know, help me!" Ruby said, turning to Yang, then back to the girl.
"So! What's your name?" Yang asked happily.
The girl sighed at that moment, looking up from her book. "Blake." She said.
With the squad...
"Blake. A beautiful name, be it for a guy or a girl." Nicolas said.
"You realize we're not part of the conversation right now, right? Just because we can hear them on the other side of the room doesn't mean they can hear us. So you can save your breath and stop trying to flirt. The only people that could hear us over hear would be demons, vampires or dog faunus." Sai explained.
With them...
"Well, Blake, I'm Yang, Ruby's older sister! I like your bow!" Yang said.
"Thanks." She said.
"It goes great with your... Pajamas!" She said.
"Right..." Blake said.
Back with us...
The guys all had the same reaction. "I would've said her hair."
Back with them...
Both non-reading girls giggled nervously at the girl's quietness, but kept trying. "Nice night, huh?" Yang asked.
"Yes, it's lovely. Almost as lovely as this book." She said. They didn't get the hint. "That I will continue to read." She pushed more. Still didn't get it. "As soon as you leave." She said, now slightly agitated, looking back to the book.
"Yeah, this girl's a lost cause." Yang said.
Back with us...
"Well, I'd be rather annoyed if I kept getting disturbed when I was reading." Damion said.
"Since when do you read?" I asked.
"Since shut up." He said, aiming the gun of his katana-gun at me.
"I'll be good." I said, raising my hands defensively.
Back to them...
"What's it about?" Ruby asked Blake.
"Huh?" Blake asked, finally breaking attention away from her book to the younger girl.
"Your book. Does it have a name?" Ruby asked again.
"Well, it's about a man with two souls. Each fighting for control over his body." Blake explained.
"Yeah, that's... Real lovely." Yang said, either not interested or creeped out by that as Ruby stepped forward.
"I love books... Yang used to read to me every night before bed." Ruby said, getting Blake's attention again.
"Stories of heroes and monsters... They're one of the reasons I want to be a huntress." Ruby said.
Blake seemed to let out a small laugh at this. "Why is that? Hoping you'll live happily ever after?" She asked.
With us...
Sai chuckled sarcastically at this. "Not in this line of work." He said, shaking his head.
With them...
"Well, I'm hoping we all will. As a girl, I wanted to be just like the heroes in the books. Someone who fought for what was right and protected people who couldn't protect themselves." She explained.
Blake and I had a similar reaction to this. "That's very ambitious for a child." We both said. "Unfortunately, the real world ISN'T the same as a fair tale." She continued.
"Well, that's why we're here. To make it better." Ruby said.
"Oh, I'm so proud of my baby sister!" Yang said, hugging Ruby and picking her up around the waist.
'"Cut it out!" Ruby said, punching Yang in the face. The two sisters then disappeared in a dust cloud of limbs and stars, catfight noises being heard and Yang giggling as they fought.
"20 on Yang." I said, pulling out my wallet, putting it away when Damion glared at me.
"Well, Ruby, Yang... It's a pleasure to-" She started, before a certain bitch stormed onto the scene as Ruby had Yang by one of her feet and the blonde was trying to hold herself up.
"What in the world is going on over here?! Don't you realize that some of us are trying to sleep?!" She demanded before seeing two familiar faces she disliked.
"Oh, not you again!" Yang and Weiss screamed at each other.
Ruby then tried to shush them. "Guys! She's right! People are trying to sleep!" She said quietly and nervously.
"Oh, NOW you're on my side!" Weiss said.
"I was always on your side!" Ruby said.
"Seriously." My group said all at once.
"You're the one that kept causing the problem." Sai sighed. Hey those sounded kinda similar!
"Honestly, this is why I hate rich people." I added, earning a glares from Damion, Sai, Serena and Selene. "Well not all rich people."
Blake put her book away, knowing she wasn't getting any further tonight, reaching for the candles. "Yeah, what's your problem with my sister?! She's only trying to be nice!" Yang snapped.
"She's a hazard to my health!" She snapped back just before Blake blew out the candles.
"Bitch please, your dust is." I said before settling in to my wavy sleep.
