Chapter 3: The second day.
After the first day of school became a fiasco, the news revealed the footage and people were making sure they avoided it at all costs. Now, the teachers had to deal with this nightmare once again, and hope that they'll survive another year.
Due to the events of yesterday, the rules were adjusted slightly and they quickly got rid the exploding Alpacas to prevent any casualties and any animal group from suing them, and in addition, banned all military machinery one million feet away from school groups.
It was Tuesday, a far more dangerous day unlike it's predecessor, and the official second day of Anime High School. In the Xiao long house, Yang was at the school early to get some exercise, and Ruby was chewing on a bread piece and her eyes were looking at reddit, and Anime High was located at the 50th post, just above the post about Arkham City closing down.
"We're a little bit famous now...so that's good." She smiled a little before finishing her toast, and setting her plate inside the dishwasher. The doorbell rang , and she said, "Coming!" walking to the front door and pulling the knob.
The person standing in front of her was very familiar, she had curly orange hair and a pink bow behind her head, freckles, light green eyes and a blouse. "Penny!"
"Ruby!" The android said immediately and hugged her friend.
"I missed you so much."
Once Penny let go of the girl, she replied, "Where have you been?"
"I've been traveling to different schools, and I saw the world's biggest whale, the Maj Tahal, the Moshington Womument, and The Grand Cannon."
"It's good to have you back," Ruby patted the shoulder of her friend, "I'm just about to head to class. Bye!" She told Penny, inching past her.
"I am confused. You go to Anime High, correct?"
"Yeah?"
"I go there too now! I was enrolled by papa yesterday." Penny informed Ruby happily.
"Nice. We better go now, or else we're going to be late."
Penny walked from the doorway, and Ruby followed along after getting a bag out with her lunch. She closed the door and started moving to the sidewalk.
The road was barely even filled with a lot of cars, they were all somewhere else since it was the weekdays, so all that was left was the regular students walking by the place. There wasn't any though since their only transportation was perhaps cars and stuff, so that just left Ruby and Penny alone to catch up on things.
"How were your other schools?"
"They were splendid," Penny explained, "Some of the teachers and the students were most kind to me, and they had a variety of clubs for me, it was just so wonderful!" She thrusted a fist in the air to prove her point.
"And why didn't you just stick around?" Asked the young girl.
"It's because of...you know." Penny tapped her fingers without a smile.
"Oh...that, I understand." Ruby apparently knew what Penny meant by 'that' but they wouldn't want to discuss it because it caused a lot of problems for the android before, it was programmed in her ever since she was made, but it was totally permanent. "How many times did that happen?"
"About four times, maybe five."
"You haven't learned to control that...thing yet?"
"I tried, but all that did was destroy an entire building."
"Good thing you weren't arrested right?" Ruby laughed, patting the girl again, "Just don't worry about it, once you join Atlas High, you're going to feel great, everyone will treat you like a normal person. "
"Even if that...thing happens?"
"Pfft. It won't happen, I promise." Ruby reassured her, waving it away.
Penny smiled at her words, she already knew that she can trust Ruby with that, it wasn't going to happen again.
"SOMEBODY HELP ME!"
Just then, a person driving a one wheel bicycle zoomed past them, and he was desperately trying to stop before his wheel crashed into an inch tall rock and flew off. Both Penny and Ruby ran to see if he was okay.
The newcomer appeared to have brown hair over his shoulders, and he also wore a sailor uniform like the other Anime High students, only the pants were red instead of gray. Most notably, he was also a Bat faunus, the small wings on his back were covered by clothing, but somewhat visible through the winkles and the ears on top of his head gave that away.
He was lucky that he landed safely, but in doing so, had him land on top of an unconscious Blake, with his face right between her breasts.
The two approached him, and stopped once they saw his most likely unintentional posture. "Uh hey…" Ruby began to say, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine!" The new character's words were muffled, but hearable as he moved his face up and then realized who he landed on. "AH!" He stood up and covered his nose as it started bleeding. "Oh come on, I just got here and now I get stuck in these perverted tropes. Damn you Battlefield!"
"Don't worry, it happens to us." Rose assured him, noticing the outfit he wore, "Are you heading over to Anime High too?"
"Yeah, I heard yesterday that it was rewritten, so I thought I'd enroll myself and see how insane it was."
"Ow." Blake finally gained consciousness and stood up, rubbing her head.
The newcomer said to her, "Oh yeah, sorry I landed on top of you, my uncle's bike was broken again-" He stopped when he caught a good view of the girl, then he was slightly blushing, but not from embarrassment.
"It's alright." She then took one look at him, clearly noting that he was a faunus like her, and responded, "Wait, why didn't you use your Echolocation?"
"Well it's...a work in progress thing, I don't have much time to properly focus on it." He was lucky that she didn't see his unfortunate moment.
"You'll find time soon enough." The cat faunus took out her hand. "My name's Blake by the way."
"Nice to meet you, I'm Nicolas Clodfelter." He shook it lightly, his mind was feeling focused towards her.
"Clodfelter?" Blake questioned the last name, "Your name isn't something related to a color?"
"Wait, is that supposed to be a thing here?"
Taking out her scroll, Belladonna showed him the color naming rule, "You have to follow this rule since you're in this crazy RWBY-like story."
"How was I supposed to figure that out!?" He said, a little angry about this news. "Now I have to waste my entire night thinking of that!"
"Glad to see you're alright Blake." Ruby finally spoke after their short talk, then turned to Nicolas, "By the way, My name's Ruby, and this is my friend Penny."
"It's a pleasure to meet you." The android responded in her usual happy tone. Nicolas also shook her hand, when the bell rang from somewhere in the background.
"OH NO, WE'RE GONNA BE LATE!" Ruby shouted out loud, and grabbed Penny's hand as she activated her Semblance, leaving the pair in the dust.
"Hey wait, get back here!" He shouted, "I can't fly you know!"
"Don't worry Nic," Blake said to him, grabbing his arm and standing in front of the wall, "I know a shortcut." She pressed a visible red button on one of the bricks.
"Wait, where did that come from?" Nic's question was unanswered as a magical door appeared in it's place for some unknown reason, they both walked through it and suddenly appeared in one of the halls of the high school. "How did that door just-"
"I have no idea, I just found it last night." Rather than figuring out its existence, Ruby and Penny were running past them and crashed straight into their first period class, History.
Inside were a few students who wore their new sailor outfits. Ruby was lying on her face from running so much, while Penny suffered no damage. Glynda Goodwitch remained in her position behind a podium giving the two a questioning look.
"Morning Professor Goodwitch." Ruby said, getting back on her feet.
"Miss Rose, next time don't run in the halls with your semblance, you might break something." Glynda told her. "Now, take your seat behind Mister Arc." Ruby understood and walked to her new seat.
Glynda then looked at Blake, "Miss Belladonna, you may sit in front of Mister Winchester."
"Damn!" someone familiar shouted.
"Language!"
This only left Nicolas and Penny, so Glynda looked at the seating chart and the small note she received from the headmaster, "Class, we have two new students enrolling this prestigious institution. Let me introduce to you Penny Polendina."
"Salutations." The android greeted the room with an almost normal smile.
"And newcomer Nicolas Clodfelter, courtesy of Elvisfan994."
"Hello class, I'm ready to survive this school of insanity." Goodwitch didn't try to explain that this was supposed to be about learning instead of going nuts, she only told the two to sit down.
"Okay class, without any further interruptions, let's begin Chapter 1: The Origins of this stupid fanfiction story." The class began to listen in on the story just to make sure they don't get in trouble after what happened yesterday.
Nicolas sat behind Yatsuhashi Dachi, and unfortunately for him, he was much too tall for him to see anything. "Hey buddy, can you move somewhere else please?"
"This is my seat, therefore I cannot move." Dachi told him in a quiet tone.
"Dude, you're blocking my view, how am I supposed to tell what the Professor is writing on the chalkboard?"
"You can figure it out for yourself." If this was getting Nicolas mad, he definitely was, "If you don't move to another seat in the next five seconds, I'll do it for you!" What he got was a bit of silence as the student was listening to Glynda's teachings, "You're asking for it."
Nic stood up and grabbed Yatsuhashi, but he was too heavy to move and too strong to budge, "Geez, what did you eat for breakfast, a building!?"
"No, I had cereal." The tall student answered.
"Then how much protein did it pack, twelve thousand!?"
Glynda caught this small act and said, "Mister Clodfelter, please stay in your seat and follow along with the class."
"Yes Professor." Nic just remained in his seat and then started thinking, 'You think you can just stay in your seat and block my view huh! Well I'm gonna make you move and I'll do in the most terrifying way possible-"
"N-Nicolas, are you okay?" Velvet Scarlatina whispered to him from behind, "You seem to be angry."
"Of course I am, this tall dude's not letting me see anything!"
"He's my friend, don't hurt his feelings."
"Fine, sorry." He said, exasperated.
Velvet went back to listening, while Nic tried to think of a way to threaten Daichi without anyone noticing.
Penny, who was sitting next to Ruby, was acting normal, listening to the teacher explain the history lesson, she was thinking of how wonderful it was that she was with Ruby again, her best friend, and she was going to be awaiting anything that came in the future.
"Hi Penny." A sudden voice came right in her head, making her grip her head as she felt pain moving inside her, "You didn't think I'd still be here, did you?" This act was not noticed by anyone except Ruby, who caught this act and felt worried.
"Not again." Penny muttered, then whispered as quietly as she could, "Please don't take over my body again."
"I can't say no to that, You kept me stuck in your head for nine days already, I think I should introduce myself to this school."
"This is not the time for this, I don't want to hurt anybody."
The right hand of the android went rogue and pointed at her, "So you just want to stay like that? Didn't you even remember what this story was about?"
"Yes."
"So that's what we were brought here for, we need to blow things up and show the school why they need to respect us!"
Penny shook the hand hard, "But my friend Ruby is here, I don't want to bring any harm to her."
"Why?"
Penny was confused.
"She's my friend."
"She is human. Why do you care about such matters?" He asked sweetly, just like a snake would.
"Because... I don't know." Penny replied unsure.
"So then why would you care if she is harmed? Is she not like all the other humans?" He argued.
"That's not true!" She said forcefully, "She is NOT like other humans. Just like me."
"If we spare her, will you let me play?" He asked nicely, almost like a parent asks a child holding a gun to give them it.
"No, don't do this please." Polendina's soft voice told the conscious in her head, "I don't want to hurt anyone."
It pointed at her face, "You are like me. Not human. And especially not like Stark. Together, we shall destroy the school, and then our creators."
"I don't want people to be afraid of me again, don't hurt anyone, especially Ruby, please… please..." Penny groveled mentally, not wanting to hurt even a small red caped girl.
The voice took about a few seconds and then responded with the hand setting itself on the table, "Alright, but just to warn you, I won't be patient." Penny tried moving her arm again and this time she had control over it again, she didn't smiled. She looked at the teacher again to regain focus, while Ruby watched the whole thing.
"Oh no."
