SPH: He-llo! So, here is MROG chapter 3! Whoo! Yeah! … sorry, I don't normally manage to get these up this soon, well, not since my laptop broke and I have to use the family computer. Anywho, I do not own RWBY or any of its locations, or characters, Ruby belongs to Ruby/ Aishagirl12 and Grace belongs to Gracekim1 I only own myself, Octavia, and all other OC's. On with the story!
"So, this must be where we go in." Mary said pushing back a lock of hair that had come loose.
"Yeah," Blake said, "just so you know, if you see a blonde haired girl with two side ponytails while the rest of her hair's down and dressed in blue jumping up and down while calling out my name, that's probably Kerri, she drank a whole bottle of syrup while on the ship, so she's probably still super hyper, well, she's always hyper, but way more than usual if she manages to get a hold of sweets."
"Got it." Mary said giggling as they walked in.
"Blake! Blake! Blake, Blake, Blake, BLAKE!" a girl who fit the description Blake had given cried upon spotting them.
"Told you." Blake whispered leaning over twords Mary who giggled again.
"Mary!" Grace cried as she and Ruby waved at her, "Come on! We saved you a spot!"
"Oh! There's my sister and my friend Grace, I gotta go!" Mary said, "I'll talk to you once the assembly's over!"
"Sure…" Blake started, then noticed a blonde head beside Ruby.
"Vlad!?" he cried.
The boy turned around before shuffling over.
"That your brother?" Mary asked turning around.
Blake sighed and nodded.
"Well, I better go catch up to Ruby and Grace, but like I said, I'll talk to you once the assembly's over!" Mary said before racing over.
Blake frowned as Vlad came over.
"What happened to staying with Kerri?" he asked crossing his arms.
"Well, see that younger girl?" Vlad asked, "She kinda literally exploded a hole in the school, then she and the girl with the rose headdress seemed lost, and Kerri vanished, again, so I walked with them till we got here, and I still couldn't find Kerri, so I just stuck with them."
"Ruby exploded a hole in the school?" Blake asked.
"How'd you know her name?" Vlad asked.
"I was just with her sister, Mary." Blake said.
Vlad looked back at the girls.
"Huh, never would of guessed." He said.
"Come on, let's go get to Kerri." Blake said face palming.
"Great, where am I gonna fid another nice, quirky girl that's not my sister to talk to?" Vlad asked following his brother, not noticing the pink haired girl behind him.
The girl was dressed in a pink turtleneck tank top and shorts with two different half skirts, the one on her left was made of white feathers just like Marcy's, while the other was made of royal blue silk. She had on royal blue shoes with purple laces reaching halfway up her calves. a silver gauntlet on her left arm while a necklace that had a long gold chain with an 'S' shaped charm made of emeralds hung from her neck.
She stared after him for a bit, then walked off sighing and muttering to herself.
"So, how's your first day been going?" Mary asked.
"You mean before you ditched us and I exploded?" Ruby asked.
"Yikes, meltdown already?" Mary asked.
"Says the girl who raced after her ex the moment she saw him to beat the snot out of him." Grace mumbled.
"No, I literally exploded a hole in front of the school!" Ruby cried, "And there was fire, and I-I think some lightning and ice."
"Are you being sarcastic?" Mary asked.
"I wish!" Ruby cried.
Grace spotted Octavia moving twords them and slunk off.
"After you sent me spinning I tripped over some crabby girl's luggage and then she yelled at me, then I sneezed, then I exploded and then she yelled at me again and I felt really, really bad and I just wanted her to stop, and…" Ruby said.
"YOU!" Octavia cried from behind her.
"Oh no! It's happening again!" Ruby cried jumping into Mary's arms, nearly sending them both to the floor.
"You're lucky we weren't thrown off the cliff!" Octavia cried.
"Oh my god you actually exploded." Mary said.
"It was an accident!" Ruby cried getting off her sister. She turned to Octavia. "It was an accident!" she cried again.
Octavia held out a pamphlet that read Dust and Coral Shipping and Engineering for Dummies: Proper use of Dust and Coral Shipping and Engineering Products.
"What's this?" Ruby asked.
"The Coral Shipping and Engineering Company is not responsible for any injuries or damages caused by a Coral Shipping and Engineering product. Although not mandatory, the Coral Family highly recommends users to familiarize themselves with this easy to follow pamphlet on Dust application in the field and on how to properly use and install Coral Shipping and Engineering products." Octavia said, her voice turning into a fast forward pitch and speed as she read making Ruby slightly dizzy and confused.
"Huh?" Ruby asked.
"You really wanna start making things up to me?" Octavia asked her glare hardening.
"Absolutely!" Ruby squeaked, slightly scared.
"Read this and don't ever talk to me again." Octavia said as Ruby snatched the pamphlet.
"Look," Mary said rubbing the back of her neck, "it sounds like you two just got off on the wrong foot, why don't you start over and try to be friends?"
"Great idea sis!" Ruby cried still holding onto the pamphlet just in case things went south again. She held out her hand. "Hello Octavia, I'm Ruby! Do you wanna hang out later? We could go shopping for school supplies."
"Oh my gosh! Yeah! And we can paint our nails, and try on clothes, and talk about cute boys like tall, blonde, and… shaggy over there!" she said motioning to Vlad, who pointed to himself making Blake and Kerri wince.
"Really!?" Ruby asked excited.
"No." Octavia said glaring.
"Did she just motion to me when she said she and Ruby could talk about cute boys?" Vlad asked.
"Her voice was in fake glee." Kerri said sweat dropping.
"And full of sarcasm." Blake added crossing his arms.
Vlad however, took no notice whatsoever.
Ruby's smile deflated while Mary held back a scream and glared at Octavia.
"Ahem," Oscar said catching everyone's attention, "I'll make this brief. You have traveled here in search of knowledge. To hone your craft and sharpen your skills, as well as acquire new ones. You plan on studying and then leaving to go out in the world and use what you learned in the field and to protect people by using it, but I look around and see wasted energy in need of purpose and direction. You have studied and trained hard to get here, you have trained to be skilled Huntsmen and Huntresses; you think that this school shall provide the knowledge needed to do so, but after your time here you'll learn knowledge can only carry you so far, just as I did, just as Ms. Schnee did, and just as all your teachers did. It is up to you to take the first step, just as it was up to us."
Mary and Ruby shared a concerned glance as Oscar walked away.
"You will gather in the ballroom tonight." Weiss said stepping up to the mic, "Tomorrow your initiation begins. Be ready."
"Did Professor Oscar seem a bit, well, off to you?" Mary asked.
"Yeah, it was almost like he was here, but not here at the same time." Ruby said.
"I'm a natural blonde ya know." Vlad said walking over to Octavia making her face palm.
"Forgive our brother; he knows not what he does." Kerri said grabbing Vlad's left arm.
"Or how to tell if women are being sarcastic." Blake said grabbing his right.
"I'll talk to you later Mary, alright?" Blake asked as he and Kerri drug their brother away.
"Uh, yeah, sure! Sounds good!" Marcy called after a bit sad she couldn't pick up where they'd left off before the assembly.
Ruby sighed as she wrote a letter to her friends back at Signal, dressed in her blue tank top and baggy light blue pants with tiny hearts on them that were her pajamas.
"It's like a big slumber party!" Mary cried flopping down on her sleeping bag by her sister clearly in a better mood than earlier.
She had on grey sweatpants, a grey hoodie tied around her waist and a pink Beacon Academy T-Shirt she'd accidently sliced with Fireblade a few months earlier that she never bothered to sew back together since she liked the look and how she somehow managed to not cut the crest despite slicing it from below her left rib to the bottom of the right side and her hair was now braided.
"Not sure everyone would approve of all the boys." Ruby said.
"I do…" Mary said looking at Blake who had just got out of Kerri's headlock and placed her in one, but winced and looked away when Vlad crossed in front dressed in a grey onesy pajama outfit, caught her looking and winked.
"So, I noticed you seem to like Barf Boy." Ruby said off handedly.
"First off, his name's Blake and he's Vlad's brother, and secondly, shut up!" Mary said blushing.
Ruby smirked.
"So, what ya doing?" Mary asked.
"Writing a letter to the gang back home," Ruby said still writing, "I promised to tell them all about Beacon and how things are going."
"Aww! That's so cute!" Mary cried.
"Now you shut up!" Ruby said throwing a pillow in Mary's face, "I didn't get to bring my friends with me to school, it feels weird not knowing anyone outside you and Grace."
"What about Vlad?" Mary asked, "He seems… nice! There you go! Plus one friend! 100% increase!"
"Pretty sure Octavia counts as a negative friend, back to zero." Ruby said sighing.
"There's no such thing as a negative friend! You just made one friend and one enemy, that's all." Mary said.
Ruby threw a heart shaped pillow in her face.
"Come on, it's only been one day!" Mary cried.
"She's right." Grace said sitting down by them, "You're surrounded by friends; you just haven't met them yet."
"Where have you been?" Mary asked.
"I wasn't in the mood to listen to Octavia give me trouble for telling her off," Grace said, "but it's not my fault so many innocent Faunus, most friends of my family get hurt, or even die working for that stupid company!"
"I like your pjs," Ruby said motioning to the purple night gown with a matching hoodie that had tie dye bunny ears.
"Thanks." Grace said.
A pink haired girl nearby lit a candle holder not too far away from them.
"That girl," Grace said, "I noticed she watched the entire Octavia event, but never said anything, unlike Vlad." She glanced at Ruby. "I will slap him for the Crater Face comment just so you know, just say the word and I will."
"Nah, he was just defending his brother after I called him Barf Boy, no harm done." Ruby said.
"You say so…" Mary muttered under her breath. She hated it when people picked on, or made fun of her younger sister. She smiled and grabbed Ruby and Grace's arms. "Let's go say hi!"
"Helooo!" Mary cried as Ruby and Grace protested against her grips, "I believe you three may know each other?"
"Aren't you the girl who blew a hole in front of the school?" the girl asked looking up from her book and at Ruby.
"Heh, yeah, I'm Ruby!" Ruby said.
The pink haired girl nodded, then looked at Grace.
"Didn't you tell Octavia off after Ruby destroyed part of the courtyard?" she asked.
"Yup, I'm Grace." Grace said.
"And I'm Mary! Ruby's older sister!" Mary said.
"Nice to meet you," the girl said, "I'm Wildfire."
She turned back to her book.
"Uh, nice night, isn't it?" Mary asked.
"Yes, lovely, almost as lovely as this book I'm reading," Wildfire said, "and will continue to do so, as soon as you leave."
"Well, she's a lost cause." Grace said starting to turn around.
"What are you reading?" Mary asked.
"Huh?" Grace and Wildfire asked.
"Your book," Mary said, does it have a name?"
Wildfire nodded.
"It's about a man who can bring one person back from the dead so long as it's been under a year since they died, but it also has a demonic side that can control the undead and is constantly at war with him to gain dominance." She said.
"Well that's lovely." Grace muttered.
"I love books." Mary said, "Mom and Aunt Ruby used to read to me and my sister Ruby before bed each night, until I got old enough to read to her."
Ruby nodded.
"They were always of heroes and monsters," she said, "sometimes they'd tell us about their adventures as team RWBY!"
"They're part of the reason me and Ruby want to become Huntresses," Mary said, "so we can help people like in the books, and help make the world a bit brighter so eventually we can all live happily ever after, even if it's a long way off till that happens."
"That's very ambitious for a child," Wildfire said with a small smile, "I was the same, but…" she sighed. "Trying to be a hero; wasn't long, soon people back home saw me as one, you're the first people to speak to me normally in a while."
"Why's that?" Mary asked.
"Oh! You're that Wildifre!" she and Ruby cried upon recognizing her.
"You look real different in pjs." Ruby said, "I like it! Makes it easier to see we're not so different."
"Why do you say that?" Wildifre asked, "Actually, why aren't you freaking out like most people would?"
"Famous or not, at the end of the day you're just a teenage girl like the rest of us." Ruby said.
Wildfire smiled.
"Oh! I'm so proud of my little sister!" Mary cried hugging her.
"Lemme go!" Ruby cried before breaking into a fight with her sister a large, grey dust cloud forming around them making Wildfire and Grace laugh.
"Well, Ruby, Grace, Mary, it's a pleasure to…" Wildfire started.
"What is going on over here!?" Octavia yelled storming over her hair down and dressed in an orange Victorian style nightgown with white lace.
Ruby and Mary stopped fighting, Ruby letting go of Mary's foot causing her to face plant onto the ground.
"Don't you realize some of us are trying to sleep!?" Octavia continued as Mary stood up.
"Oh no! Not you again!" both girls cried once they spotted each other.
Guys! Shh!" Ruby cried slightly panicked, "She's right! People are trying to sleep!"
"Oh, now you're on my side!" Octavia cried.
"I was always on your side!" Ruby cried.
"Yeah!" Mary cried, "What's your problem with my sister? She's only trying to be nice!"
Grace sighed.
"Mind if I?" she asked picking up Wildfire's candle.
Wildfire shook her head.
"She's a hazard to my health!" Octavia cried at Mary and Ruby.
"Grace held the candle close to her face and blew it out, making the entire room turn black.
