Chapter 2
The group walked into the main assembly hall, and many people crowded around a large open stage, standing on which was a tall dark and rugged haired man wearing a fancy dress coat with red highlights. At his hip was a small dagger, and by his side was a young black haired boy. He looked quite timid standing in front of that crowd. The tall man stood up and smiled as he addressed his new students. "Good day to you all, my bright, shining pupils!" He spoke in a cheerful and calm tone. "Welcome to Beacon academy, a place where we turn young men and women like you into fierce hunters of Grimm. You are all here because you passed the requirements necessary to gain access to my school. My name is Professor Hendrickson, and I will be your headmaster for the next upcoming years. And this is my little assistant, Ozpin." The young boy seems to shrink a little as his name is said. Professor Hendrickson continued, "Now then, let us get down to procedures. You will all be spending the night in this assembly room, and by the end of tomorrow evening, your teams will be decided. Please report to the teachers to have your lockers assigned, and they will inform you of what to do and where to go tomorrow morning. Happy hunting!" The professor puts his hand on the boy's shoulder and leads him out, almost fatherly. The group looked at each other as the crowd dispersed. Raven states, "So, we go to the teachers in alphabetical order, I think, so me and Qrow will be heading over to our assigned teacher. See you guys later." Qrow rolls his eyes as the two head off. Taiyang turned to Tyler. "So yeah, I'm gonna go find that girl I was checking out earlier. You've got this, right?"
"Yeah, I got it. I'll catch up with you and the siblings later."
"Alright! See ya!" Taiyang runs off, leaving Tyler to himself. He looked around and tried to find anyone who seemed friendly when he saw some poor girl being absolutely lost of what to do. She was on the shorter side, with long pale brown hair put up in a ponytail, and she had many small delicate features. She wore a small dull pink t shirt and light blue jeans, topped off with a red scarf that was so long it nearly reached down to her knees. On her back was an extremely long sniper rifle. At the end of the barrel was a long and sharp curved blade, turning her simple sniper rifle into a scythe. Upon further inspection, the rifle's trigger and scope were retractable to make the pole arm easier to handle, and the stock also straightened out to make the blade even longer. She was asking around, wondering which teacher would tell her where to go, what to do, it looked like she was a little overwhelmed with all this. Tyler walked over to her. "Is there something I can help you with?" She turned to him, desperate. "YES! I have no idea what I'm doing! Where do I go, where can I put my stuff, where's the freaking bathroom?!" She sounded quite overwhelmed with the whole thing. Tyler laughed a bit. "Here, why don't you stick with me? I know my way around a little bit." She smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks. My name is Sabella Lillian. Nice to meet you!"
"Tyler Akinson, the pleasure is all mine."
"So where are we going?"
"Well, first of all, bathroom is right down there." Tyler pointed to a doorway a few dozen meters away and just like that, Sabella was gone in an instant. Tyler chuckled and waited for her. After a few minutes, she came out, looking a lot better. "Whew! Thanks for waiting. So where to now?"
"We're getting our lockers assigned alphabetically, so I would assume that you need to find a teacher and I need to find a teacher." the two asked the teachers and found their individual sections of the alphabet. Sabella turned to Tyler. "Hey, come find me after we get our lockers. You seem nice!" She runs off, and Tyler smiles as he adds another friend to his roster.
