As I said, I am uploading three chapters really quickly right now. I have the time seeing as I have settled into Europe really quickly.
Pyrrha
'All that I'm saying Pyrrha, is that after all this time, surely I should be doing better, even slightly!' Jaune pouted to his red haired partner.
'I know how you feel Jaune, but these things take time.'
'But Pyrrha, you don't really know how I feel. You have always been amazing at fighting, so you never had this problem, but I just can't seem to be any good!'
'I'm sure you'll end up being just fine. I'll help you out even more through the semester break than what I normally do, and I bet by then you'll be one of the best in the academy!'
'I'll have to hold you to that then Pyrrha,' Jaune said, pulling his scroll out of his pocket, taking a quick glance at their timetable.
'Ok, it says here that we have Grimm Studies in a few minutes with Profess-woah!'
Pyrrha could do nothing but watch as Jaune tumbled onto the floor, along with another student whom she had never seen before. She was caught for a moment, as she observed him.
He wore a dark blue buttoned up shirt. It was unbuttoned a few buttons from the collar, which was ruggedly fixed, half of it flat against his neck, the other sticking up at odd angles. The shirt had white stitch around the shoulders, down the sides of the shirt, and around the edge of the shirt where the buttons were.
Across his heart was a strange symbol that Pyrrha had never seen before. It was difficult to tell what it was, but Pyrrha could best tell that it was a bat, due to the way the edges spread out like wings, and the top stuck out like two bat ears.
Around his wrists were long, armoured gloves. Along the top of the forearm was a dark blue plate of armour that had ridges across it, suggesting that it could move around to become something else. The same emblem was sat on the top of the gloves, behind his palms.
His trousers were bright white that faded into a dark blue near the front of his thighs and his knees. The bottom of the legs were tucked into dark blue combat boots with black straps.
'Oh man,' Jaune started, looking up at the student, a sad look on his face. 'I'm so sorry man, I didn't see you, I was busy looking at my timetable and-'
'That's fine,' the other student said, lending Jaune a hand. 'We all have our days.'
'Yeah, except it's like every day with me,' Jaune replied, grabbing hold of the other students hand as he was hauled upwards. Once they were both standing again, Pyrrha took a look at the students face.
He looked much older than most of the other students that she knew at beacon. His blue hair was tousled, and fell just over the tops of his eyes, which were, like his atttire, a dark blue. A smile sat on his face, but it looked slightly forced, as if he was going through a difficult situation.
'Thanks, uhh,' Jaune started, shaking his hand before wondering what the students name was.
'Garris,' he said, shaking Jaunes hand once more before letting it go. 'Garris Daxter.'
'Jaune Arc. And, uh, this is Pyrrha Nikos,' he said, turning and indicating towards Pyrrha with his hand.
'It's a pleasure to meet you Garris,' Pyrrha said as she shook his hand.
'The pleasure is all mine Miss Nikos,' Garris said.
'What year are you in Garris? If you don't mind my asking.'
'Not at all. I'm in my third year at Beacon now. I assume you are both in your first year?'
'Yeah, we are,' Jaune said quickly, looking at Pyrrha intently. 'Listen, not to be rude or anything, but Pyrrha and I both have to get to class, and we really don't want to be late.'
'Of course! Go ahead, don't let me hold you back.'
'Thanks,' Jaune said, pulling Pyrrha along. 'Seeya Garris!'
'Bye Jaune, goodbye Pyrrha!'
'Goodbye!' Pyrrha said, waving as she and Jaune started to run through the corridor of the school.
Garris
He shook his head as he watched Jaune and Pyrrha sprint away to their class.
'I swear that the kids who enroll here get weirder and weirder every year.'
Turning away, he started to head to his own class, advanced aura training with Profesor Goodwitch.
As he turned a corner, he almost crashed into someone else.
'Those two would make a good couple,' said the familiar voice, making Garris smile.
'Yeah, they look like they would be awkward about it though,' Garris said, as he looked at his partner.
Lupis was wearing his usual attire. A pitch black, long sleeve shirt with a jagged blue design around his ribcage, covered by his unzipped black jacket. Fingerless gloves were still on his hands as they always were. His black boots were the exact same as Garris', as well as his trousers, but they faded from black to blue instead.
His eyes were slightly bloodshot, obviously from his lack of sleep from worrying over Eric for the last few days did nothing but add more colour to his eyes. Alongside the pale red, his eyes were a stormy grey blue, with lots of amber streaks throughout his iris.
He must not have taken as much care in his appearance, as his black hair lay flat on his head, drooping close to his eyes, in comparison to how it normally stood, spiked upwards at the fringe.
'How are you holding up Lupis? With Eric and all of that?'
Lupis sighed, and Garris could tell he was thinking of an answer.
'I still feel like it's my fault, you know? Like, I should have been more cautious, I mean, I'm his leader for Oums sake!'
'I know Lupis, but you have to let it go. No offense, but you aren't perfect, and you can't save us from everything in the world.'
Lupis sighed again, lowering his head. 'I know Garris, I guess this is just what I have to feel when I'm the team leader.'
'Don't worry about it so much,' Garris said, clapping a hand on his partners shoulder and steering him to his next class. 'Be more worried about our class with Professor Goodwitch. We haven't been here for the last two months, and I'm sure we are really far behind now.'
'I'm sure we can catch up, we always have,' Lupis said, silently walking alongside Garris.
'Hopefully. Come on Lupis, let's get over there. It would be pretty bad if we were late for our first class after getting back. That isn't really how I want our reputation to go after our time away.'
Lupis looked over at Garris, a smile on his face.
'Garris, our reputation was always bad, don't try to kid yourself. I was bad as soon as you tried to hit on that girl from Team LBTY for the first semester in our first year!'
'I didn't try!' Garris exclaimed, pointing a finger at Lupis' face. 'She actually found me funny and we got kinda close for a while!'
'Uh huh. If by close you mean she took all of your Lien and made you look like a complete idiot in front of the rest of the year, then sure man, I'll agree with you.'
'She was great,' Garris said, reflecting on his time with Yasmine.
I know that there is no action in this chapter either, but I can promise that the next one will be much better. I hope I described these two characters well. Once more, if you can possibly leave a review so I can make these chapters as good as I possibly can, that would be fantastic. And please do, I know there are people seeing this stuff, so I would really appreciate it.
Thanks, Phoenix
