Endless Lives Ch.2

[Forest of Forever Fall]

Ciel: Umm … Zero I don't have an idea where we are.

Zero: So we are just stuck here in the middle of nowhere.

Ciel: yes…but at least there are no artificial plants, animals, or weather here, wherever here is.

Zero: I guess just stay here I will scout the surrounding area.

Wait, what am I supposed to do in the mean time?

Asked Ciel However, it was too late Zero had left and she was left alone.

[Somewhere else in the Forest of Forever Fall]

Ruby: YAANG! Why do I have to carry all the sap?

Yang: Because you need to build up some upper body strength in case, you lose Crescent Rose again.

It was just that one time and, besides how do you know I don't have any upper body strength? Whined Ruby.

Because I saw, your arm wrestling match with Wiess and you lost in the first second and, Crescent Rose is weightless.

Said Yang, besides, even if you didn't want to, I still have your diary so you must do as I say.

When Ruby saw that Yang had she quickly, set down the Jars of sap and, used her semblance to try to snatch it form her sister but, unfortunately, just slapped the book out of her hand and went flying off in the distance.

The diary landed on Ciel but another similar book fell from the heavens hitting Zero on the head.

Zero out of curiosity opened the book to the first page and read the title "How to Be Human" by "H.M." (Hermaeus Mora) and the pages began to move and before he could react the information literally flew off the pages and entered his mind leaving the book blank.

Hey! Don't read that! Zero turned to see a blonde running towards him.

At the same time Ciel was recovering from the impact to find a diary and was about to open it when she heard: Don't open that; when she tuned she found a girl dressed in red running at her at a very high speed.

Ciel dropped the book in shock and it opened to a page filled with hearts and in the center she saw a large heart with Ruby X … the book was closed before she could read the last part.

Did you see anything? Asked Ruby, with a bright red blush on her face.

Ciel: No, I didn't but umm I am sorry I don't know where I am can you help me? She asked to break the awkward silence.

She began to explain her situation however this was not the case for Zero.

You drop that diary, said Yang.

Zero looked at her in confusion and curiosity and a slight glee for he found a human or a human found him.

Zero held on to the book tightly and spoke: what is it you want with this book?

Well that's my sisters diary and I need it to black mail her to do my bidding and besides, what are you doing here in a Grimm infested forest?

I don't know I just woke up here and I need to get my commander to a safe place, Said Zero.

Look said Yang not that I don't trust you but I have to make sure you're not with the White Fang.

Zero put the book in his right hand, raised a fist, and brought it to the ground crating an explosion that caused dirt to fly hiding Zero, allowing him to get behind Yang and say: if you were going to attack now would be the time.

Oh, it is on, Yang began to launch a fury of punches, and Zero blocked all of them.

As they began to fight when Ciel and Ruby agreed to look for Yang and Zero, only to find them about to clash, until Ruby ran in between them.

Zero saw Ruby and lowered his fist, using his reploid speed, went around her and shielded her from Yang's Attack, and when her fist made contact Zero flew backwards into a tree and fractured his helmet.

Ciel ran to where Zero was hoping he wasn't too damaged. Zero, are you ok?

Ruby was currently scolding Yang and as Zero got up from the tree and his helmet fell off completely reveling a full head of blonde hair, and a pair of animal ears.

Oh, Ciel said confused and slightly frightened. Umm Zero, I didn't know you had animal ears.

Oh well, wait what! How is that possible?

Umm Miss Rose can you tell me where are we and if you can tell me about these animal ears, Asked Ciel.

Ruby: well we are in the forest of Forever Fall and those mean you are a Faunus, a race of people that have animal traits.

Oh … wait how is that possible so many questions filled her head but first things first, "can you take us to a safer place please?

Sure, we can right Yang; Ruby said holding on to her diary tightly and an angry look on her face.

Fine we'll take them to beacon so they can talk to Professor Ozpin.

[At Beacon Academy] (Ozpin's Office)

(After Explaining to Ozpin, the situation of Ciel and Zero in private and he also explained how Huntsmen work and about the peace they were experiencing)

Well it seems that your situation is very peculiar indeed, said Ozpin; well, you are welcome to stay here at Vale but if you wish to attend Beacon, you both will have to audition for the Academy.

Zero: Well I was actually a Maverick Hunter in my past life so I should do just fine but; what about Ciel?

Well she actually can audition with you if she has combat experience.

Zero turned to Ciel: Did you say you had to learn to fight after Ragnarök?

Well yes but it's complicated and besides I don't think I belong in a place designed to train warriors, I am just a Robotics Doctor.

Wait you are a doctor? Well that's very ingesting for someone so young to have a Doctoral degree, Said Professor Ozpin.

Well when I was in Neo Arcadia but I don't think my degree applies in this world, she said sounding depressed.

Ozpin: well I do believe that I could arrange to allow you to stay to allow you to stay here at my Academy if you can show your skills and earn a degree here.

Okay it shouldn't be too hard I did get my doctoral at age five, boasted Ciel.

At this, the Professor spit out his coffee and responded with; wait what?
