Chapter 11: New Kids In School

"This is the library."

It had been a week since the concert, and Ozpin was giving a campus tour to three new initiates.

"I won't ever see this place again." Colton said with a slight smile.

Ozpin looked back and sighed, he saw the Krystal girl try to hide a giggle.

"What's wrong with books?" That was the Aurora girl. "I find them quite enjoyable."

Colton turned to her and laughed.

"I would rather be perfecting the art of combat, not the art of book."

"Art of book?"

"Yeah, art of book." He frowned. "Don't make fun of me."

Aurora just rolled her eyes.

"Whatever."

Ozpin had been watching with an amused expression on his face.

"Fine children, let's just go to where your new dorm will be."

"Where is it?" Krystal asked. "Is it near Team RWBY's?"

"It's right next to it, Sun requested it that way."

"Who's Sun?" Aurora asked, looking confused.

Ozpin stole a quick glance at her before answering.

"Sun is your new team leader."

"Oh." She took on a thoughtful expression. "When will we see him?"

"In a few minutes, he's waiting in the room."

"Lead the way." Colton said as he bowed and gestured forward to Ozpin.

Ozpin rolled his eyes and, muttering something under his breath about kids these days, set off towards the dorm rooms.


Sun was lounging at his new desk, still trying to get a feel for his first real room.

'It's amazing,' He thought. 'That I could go from such a poor background to this.'

He swept his arms around and marveled at everything.

'Yeah, it's good to finally be somewhere.' Michael added sarcastically.

Although Sun had gotten Michael to speak only occasionaly, the few outbursts that still happened were usually annoying.

"Knock knock." Came a voice from outside. "Can I come in?"

"Sure." Sun replied.

The door opened to admit Ozpin first, followed quickly by a girl he had never seen before, and finally, Colton and Krystal walked in at a leisurely pace.

"Sun, this is your new team: Aurora, Krystal, and Colton."

"Hey Colton, Krystal. But you said this was Aurora?"

Sun was already looking her up and down. She had dark hair and calm, violet eyes. She wore a loose, purple t-shirt that had the words "Don't even try" on it. There was a grenade belt strapped around her waist, and there were multiple packs of C4 strapped to her back.

"Done looking?" The girl in question asked, seemingly amused at the scrutiny she was getting. "Professor, will I be subjected to this anywhere I go? I don't think I could stand this."

Sun smiled at her, deciding he liked her.

'I like her too.' Michael added, and Sun mentally kicked him to get him to shut up.

"Hey Sun?" Colton started. "Are you going to let us in? Or are you just going to stare at her for a while longer."

For Sun's part, he kept his bravado as he ushered them into the room.

"I guess I'll just go then," Ozpin said. "By the way, your team name is SCAR."

With that, the mysterious professor slipped out of the room.

"So, first thing's first, bedding arrangements." Sun said with a smirk.

"I got this one." Krystal jumped on the bed closest to the bathroom, on the far left edge.

"I guess I'll take the one beside her." Colton sat down on his new dwelling and smiled at Krystal.

"Which one do you want, Aurora?" Sun asked her.

"I'll take the one as far away from those two." She walked over to the other edge and smiled back at Sun. "Guess that leaves you to sleep between Colton and me."

Sun looked at his bed, already thinking that it would be a fun four years.


"Did you hear the news?"

"What is it Ruby?" One would easily have been able to detect the exasperation in Weiss' voice.

"Sun's teammates just moved in a few minutes ago."

"Really?" The excitement in Yang's voice was evident.

"Yes, do you want to go over there and say hi?"

"YES!" Yang was already walking towards the door.

"Hold on Yang, wait for me." Blake said, getting up off the bed.

"Hurry up."

"Let's go Weiss." Ruby was tugging on Weiss' sleeve, trying to pull her up.

"Fine." Weiss stood up and was promptly dragged to the door.

"Well, let's go!" Yang ran out the door.

Blake waited for a second, and Yang burst back through the door.

"Where is it again?" Yang asked sheepishly.

"It's right next door." Blake replied.

Yang went out again, taking a left. Blake waited, and before too long, Yang poked her head through the door again.

"It's to the right, I was just testing you guys."

Blake rolled her eyes and followed Yang out the door, with Ruby and Weiss tailing behind.


Sun was sitting on his bed, asking Aurora questions about herself.

"So, what's your last name?"

"It's-" Aurora was rudely interrupted by Yang knocking on the door and inviting herself in.

"Hello!" Yang yelled. "Are you the noobs?"

"Yang," Blake was standing behind her. "Don't make them feel unwelcome."

"Oh, come on, let me have my fun." Yang turned around to hug her girlfriend.

"You two introduce yourselves," Blake said to Ruby and Weiss. "I have a hyperactive lunatic to attend to."

She grabbed Yang and walked out the door.

"Interesting," Sun said, watching them leave. "So Ruby, want to meet the team?"

"Sure, I've already seen Colton and Krystal, but who's the new person?"

"This is Aurora, what is your last name?"

"It's-" Aurora started, before being interrupted for a second time by Colton.

"Hey Ruby, Weiss. What happened to Blake and Yang?"

"Blake had some 'business' to attend to." Weiss replied.

Krystal raised an eyebrow at that, and Colton laughed.

"So, how's life at Beacon?" He asked. "Sun hasn't been able to tell us much."

"Hey, I've only been here for a week!" Sun replied.

"Fine, calm down."

"Beacon is a hard school, but not because of the combat."

"But isn't that all there is?"

"Nope," Weiss responded with a smug look on her face. "Classwork is the hard part."

"WHAT?" Krystal screamed in despair. "WE HAVE CLASSES?"

Everyone winced as their eardrums were destroyed by the high pitched voice that assaulted them.

"Yes, Krystal," Sun replied. "There are classes we have to attend to, and our first one is at nine tomorrow."

"We have to get up early as well?" And as Ruby nodded, Krystal slumped farther into her bed.

"So, you were telling us your last name?" Weiss asked Aurora.

"It's-"

"HEEEEEEEEEEEEY, NEW PEOPLE!" Nora yelled as she kicked the door down.

Ren heard the noise from his room, and quickly ran out the door to investigate. He turned and saw Nora standing in a random team's doorway. He grabbed Nora and dragged her back to the room and, telling her to stay, walked back to the room she had just terrorized.

"Sorry about that," He said, before seeing the room's occupants. "Oh, hey Sun, how's it going?"

"Great, until I nearly lost my ears twice in the space of a minute."

"Well again, sorry."

"It's fine. Thanks for stopping her before she could do more damage. By the way, any luck with her?"

"Not yet." Ren smiled ruefully. "But sometime in the near future, it will happen."

"What are you talking about?" Ruby asked.

"Nothing, see you guys later." Ren started to walk out of the room, before finding Nora waiting in the hallway.

"What are you doing in the near future?" She asked.

"Nothing," Ren replied. "Don't worry about it."

Ren pushed Nora back to the room.

"Well, that was a thing." Colton said.

"Yes, it was." Sun smiled over at him, before turning back to look at Ruby.

Aurora was absentmindedly tossing one of her many grenades in the air and catching it. Weiss caught her doing it and her eyes widened.

"What are you doing?" She yelled. "That's an explosive you're tossing up."

Aurora smiled sweetly at her, and promptly dropped the grenade on the ground. Weiss watched the grenade fall in slow motion, it hit the ground and sat there.

"You realize you have to trigger the explosive before it can blow up, right?" Aurora said as she picked the grenade back up and put it back in her belt.

"I, uh, um." Weiss looked around the room and only found barely-contained-laughter on everyone's faces.

She grabbed Ruby and stormed out, leaving Ruby a space of two seconds to say goodbye.

"Wow, that's three walk-outs in the space of ten minutes," Krystal smiled. "A new record."

"Whatever, so Aurora, your last name?" Sun asked, looking around for anything to interrupt her answer.

"It's-"


Author's Note:
Oh the joy of writing OCs. I don't know why I decided to keep Aurora's name a secret, but it's more fun for me as a writer. I don't even think her last name is too great. Moving on, I would like to thank my friend Kyla again. She helped out in editing this chapter because Colton was too lazy to do so. I hope everybody had a great Valentine's Day on Friday (Solo FTW!). One last thing, I want to give another shout-out to Leviticus Wilkes, another writer on Fan Fiction. He is writing his own version of Volume 2 of RWBY, with more to come after that. His story is more thought out than mine by tenfold, so go check it out. Thank you everybody for reading and if you liked it, don't forget to follow, favorite, and review. Chas1881
