Amber woke up to see Carmine walk out of the bathroom. His hair was a mess. He wasn't wearing a shirt, and water still dripped from his hair.
Carmine nodded to her.
"Morning hun," amber teased.
Carmine's moment of feeling macho turned to embarrassment as he walked off to dry his hair and get into uniform.
Amber's moment of teasing fun turned sour when she felt someone standing over her.
Sean had snuck up onto her, and she jumped out of her bed.
Sean burst into full embarrassment. Amber did not wear much while sleeping. So she was just in her bra and panties. Both were pure white. She also had both of her weapons strapped on her wrists.
Her face turned a bright red as she slapped Sean across the face. She stormed off into the bathroom to get dressed, and put her hair into its braid.
Sean just stood there. "I expected red, honestly."
The door opened just wide enough for her to fire Remus at him.
Olivine opened the door. "What did I miss?"
"Sean managed to scare Amber out of her bed, and saw her underwear," Carmine replied. "So she slapped him, and the tried to shot him."
Olivine blinked. " I honestly can't blame her."
Sean shrugged it off.
Amber had her hair braided, and walked out, wearing her new uniform. Her skirt was to short for her liking.
Olivine felt the same, but she managed to hold her blush back.
Sean and Carmine wore their respective uniforms. Carmine looked professional, his eyebrows narrowed. "I don't like this uniform already."
"Coming from the guy who wears a suit," Sean commented.
Sean himself, to Olivine at least, looked like he was ready to break hearts. The rose he found didn't help.
"Where did you get that?" Amber asked, pointing to the flower.
Sean shrugged, handing the flower to Olivine. "May your day be as beautiful as this rose little lady."
"That is such a corny pick up line," Olivine commented.
"Agreed," Carmine added.
"Coming from a guy who turns blood red when ever a girl smiles at him?" Amber commented.
"That was one time!" he shouted back.
The other three started laughing.
Their first class was with Professor Port.
"Welcome young compatriots!" Port said to his class. "What I see are marvelous bundles of potential. Not as marvelous as me I might add, but I digress." He let out a small laugh
No one laughed with him.
"Anyway, my job is to teach you how to fight off the force that seek to end our existence as a whole." He pointed to his board. "Here you see five different Grimm. These five; Beowolve, Nevermore, Boarbatusk, Deathstalker and Ursa, are the most common Grimm we know about. Many exsist, but these five are the most well known, with the King Taijutsu as another one that is commonly sighted."
Silence followed as Port begin to tell a tale of how he once fought off twn Ursa. No one paid it any mind.
Soon, the bell rang, and Professor Port stood strait. "Well, by that sound, my time for tales has come to an end. I will require a two page summary on the Beowolve by tomorrow."
With that, everyone left to take a break before the next class.
Sean layed out on the grass. Carmine stood leaning against a tree, sipping the can of soda he bought. Olivine was perched in the tree, watching other students walk by. Amber was leaning against the tree ass well, but on the other side.
Ooblecks class ended very abruptly as they had to repair the classroom.
"How did you even start a fire without any combustible materials?" Carmine asked.
"Hey, it wasn't me!" Sean defended.
Amber rolled her eyes. "Who was the guy that shouted 'I've done it," again?"
Sean sighed. "You can't prove anything."
"Technically, that is true," Olivine replied. "No one saw him do it."
Ozpin had interrogated him, to no eval. He refused to budge on the matter.
Amber rubbed her head. "I really hope we don't have to deal with this in our dorm."
Their last class of the day, was Miss Goodwitch's. She stood in the center of the room, scroll in hand. She was scrolling through names.
"As many of you may knwo, I am Glynda Goodwitch. My job is simple. Train you how to fight. Not just Grimm. I'll train you to fight other people."
A hand was raised. "Johnny Guy, am I correct?" she asked
Johnny nodded. "If its not to rude, why do we have to worry about that. I thought our job was to kill Grimm."
"It is Mr. Guy," Glynda replied. "But, you must also protect the kingdoms. That is a job that encompasses a large feild of work from police work, to bounty hunting, assassination, and even teaching the breed of hunters. But, there will be people who stand against you, and who will want to see your world crumble."
Silence followed that.
Glynda nodded. "Very well. Then let us begin."
She called up two guys to fight first. One of them had a pair of gloves that seemed to have pistons beuilt in. The other had a rifle with a quartet of banquettes. The two faced off, and the second one won that fight, since his strength bested the other's skill.
Glynda nodded with approval. "Next up, Walker Freepons, and Sean Frye?"
Sean stood up and jumped down. Walker choose to walk down.
Glynda looked at the two of them. Sean was wearing his jeans and tank-top proudly, looking like a soldier. And just the light shone on his glasses, the lenses were pure white, and made him even more intimidating.
Walker's trench coat made him seem as if he was hiding something. And for all they know, he might.
The two stood there. One calm, the other ecstatic.
Glynda stepped back. When she was out of the way, both pulled their weapons out.
Hades was held in Sean's hands, ready to slice his enemy to pieces.
Walker had his tanfas at the ready. he opened them up, showing the complex circuitry. A pulse began to emit from the tonfas. barely audible, but noticeable.
Sean ignored the sound. Hades at the ready, he charged.
Walker anticipated this, and stepped to the side, hitting Sean with the but end of his tonfa. Walker stepped back as Sean got back up, his smile, still gleeful.
Walker used his foresight to see what Sean would do next. Based on his stance, another frontal charge was unlikely. It would have to be a swipe at the feet.
Sean charged, and walker jumped. Hades though, had been aimed at Walker's neck, not his feet. Walker had just enough time to go intangible. The blade passed harmlessly through his waist.
Not only had he misread Sean's strike, but the aim was for a kill.
"How did you know my semblance?" Walker asked.
"What do you mean?" Sean asked, keeping his ax at the ready.
"Intangibility," Walker stated. "I can go intangible for certain amounts of time. How did you know that?"
Sean's stare went blank. "Thats what you can do?" he asked with utter confussion, rubbing his head.
"Wait," Walker stated. "You were actually trying to slice my throat?"
Silence.
Walker's jaw dropped. "What the hell? Why are you trying to kill me?"
Sean didn't answer, but put up his stance again, and held his weapon at the ready. "Fight me and learn," he said, with venom in his voice.
Walker had no choice. He put up his defenses, tonfas at the ready.
Sean charged again, but at the last moment, went to the left. Walker jumped to the side when he saw Sean side step, avoiding the slash. Walker was still in danger though as Sean had been charging a round in his weapon.
"Styx Shot!" Sean shouted with glee.
The round was fast, and the force behind it would break through most aura.
Walker went intangible just in time for the round to slip harmlessly through him.
Sean pulled Hades out of the ground, and charged forward.
Walker ducked as another slice aimed at his throat.
Being so close, walker changed the frequency on his tonfas, and hit Sean strait in the gut with the circuitry.
Both froze for a second.
When Walker moved, Sean backed up, and looked sick. His face had lost color. He puked up his lunch, but still remained standing.
"Oh, crap," Walker said, as a slice came from Sean. What had been glee was now anger.
Sean became more erratic in his slashes and shots.
Walker at least could see when attacks were coming at him, but now he barely had time to react.
This kept up for around two minutes. Then Sean stopped, and stood still. His aura surrounded him. Its color was pitch black.
Walker grew even more uneasy.
"I guess you deserve to know my semblance as well," Sean said, charging forward.
Walker tried to step back, but misplaced his foot, and started to fall.
"I alter the law of probability," Sean said, face to face with Walker.
Walker went intangible long enough for Hades to pass through him. He stood back up, and put another hit into Sean.
This time, the pulse won. Sean puked up what remained of his lunch, and passed out.
Miss Goodwitch walked forward, and cleared her throat. "Well done Mr. Freepons. You have definitly shown that brawn dosen't always win over strategy."
"Thank you Ms. Goodwitch," he responded.
"Anyone else care to fight?" she asked.
Someone raised their hand. "We would," Brandon Coleman said. Both Johnny and Ryan with him.
"And who would you like to face?" Glynda asked.
Ryan pointed toward the other three members of Team CAOS. "Them."
Carmine stood up. "I have no objections."
Glynda sighed. "Very well."
All six gathered. They agreed now gun fire for this.
Olivine had Red Robin seperated into two sword. Amber, since she wasn't going for a kill, would rely on hand to hand combat. Carmine had Extortion in its bat form, ready to fight.
Ryan had his Quan Dao at the ready, easily have ranged advantage. Brandon, with his blade, was also ready. Johnny stood between his two comrades, and had his Utopian Scalpels ready as well.
The atmosphere was just slightly less stressful than Walker and Sean's fight.
Each one knew their target, and Team CAOS was the first to start the fight.
Amber needed to get close so she could handle Ryan. With the length of his weapon, she stood no chance at range.
Carmine aimed at Johnny, aiming to try and catch him off guard.
That left the two sword users to fight.
Brandon looked at Olivine, noticing the squirrel tail. This meant she had a better balance than he did.
Both took a stance, and prepared to fight.
"I can't believe you guys won," Johnny said, sitting next to Carmine.
Amber laughed a bit. "If Walker had replaced Ryan, we would have been screwed considering his intangibility."
Walker smiled. "its not that special."
"Dude, you managed to survive at least two slices to the throat, and bullet through chest because he didn't take your semblance into account," Carmine pointed out.
Brandon nodded. "But that kid's tunnel vision is what really lost it for him."
"I'm right here you know," Sean said, still sickly grey and sweating. "I still want to know what the hell your tonfas did."
Walker, who was, for good reason, out of Hades slashing distance, laughed a bit. "You aimed to kill me, i had to use a certain frequency to knock you out."
Sean wasn't laughing. "I almost had you."
"Almost doesn't mean anything," Ryan pointed out.
Sean just looked at him with murder in his eyes. "The second my stomach quits doing the conga with my liver, I'll be in a laughing mood. until then, remember that I keep a rail gun on me."
Ryan got the point, and shut up. Everyone else other than those two burst into laughter.
Sean stood in the inn, like he did most nights. His mother and father were taking food to their guests. Sean was helping, smiling, and laughing.
Then the scene shifted, two Ursa stood where his parents had been. They looked up, blood coating them.
Sean let out a scream as he woke up.
He looked around. He was in his dorm.
Olivine walked over to his bed. "Are you all right?" she asked.
He let out his breath. "Yeah, just a bad dream."
"Do you need a drink?" she asked.
"I can get it. You just rest, okay?" he replied. "Sorry to wake you up."
Olivine let him leave, and just got back into her bed.
Before they knew it, a week had passed since initiation.
Regardless, people still talked about how Sean and Walker should have a rematch. It didn't help that Sean had avoided walker on most occasions until he stopped being sick.
It was lunch time when Sean finally talked. "Now that i'm not at risk of puking up my lunch again, I have something to say."
Both teams fell silent. A couple tables away, a certain girl in shades listened in.
"I have come to respect your strength Walker," Sean said, begrudgingly. He stuck out his hand. "Friends?"
Walker was suspicious in this change of attitude, but shoe Sean's hand. "Friends," he replied.
Then, Sean grabbed Walker's arm, and swung him over his head. Walker crashed into the other table, splitting in half, sending students flying back.
Silence fell over the cafeteria.
"Ow," Walker said, laying among the splinters.
"Now were even," Sean said, rubbing his hands together.
Walker was to stunned to reply. Same went for Brandon and Olivine.
Ryan was holding back a laugh.
"What the crap was that?" Johnny asked.
Sean smiled at him. "Revenge. I can handle being knocked out. But being made sick to my stomach? No, not easy to forgive."
Carmine sighed. "So that was your plan."
Amber punched him on the left side of his face. "You idiot!" she shouted.
Sean landed on another table, splitting it in half as well. Getting the message, other students back away from both Team GRFFC and Team CAOS.
Sean stood, and laughed a little. "Now were talking!"
"Do I need to knock him out again?" Walker asked.
Carmine sighed. "Just let Amber deal with it. You'll only incite more damage to school property."
Sean stood there, his aura flaring to life.
Amber stood her ground, uncertain what to expect. she could never tell.
She felt a rumbling, and though he had managed an earthquake. When the burp escaped her, she knew differently.
People burst into laughter, including her team.
The only one who wasn't laughing, but was holding it back was Yatsuhashi.
Amber burst into full red, and fired a bullet at Sean, which Sean dodged. He then clapped his hands together twice in rapid motion, and began to dance. In his mouth was that red rose he had found that morning.
"Where did he get that?" Johnny asked.
"We don't know," Carmine, Olivine and Amber said in unison.
"You have ended up in here twise this year, and we aren't even done with the first month of school," Ozpin said, looking slightly annoyed.
His words were directed at Sean, but the rest of the team felt a little edge in it as well.
Sean had lost interest in the conversation within five seconds of walking through the door. Only reason he wasn't on his scroll was because of the looming figure of Miss Goodwitch behind him, making sure he listened.
"I know you have your problems, but still, you should know not to break a table in half with another student."
Sean's eyes turned to Ozpin, a hard glint in them. Ozpin, unfazed gave the stare back. "Why is it you seek confrontation?" Ozpin asked.
"Qrow has already told," he replied.
Ozpin's shoulder slouched. "Still for that reason?" Ozpin asked.
Sean nodded, and stood. "i'm going to get something to eat," he said, walking out the door.
Glynda was about to stop him, until Ozpin raised his hand. "Stay Glynda."
She stopped, and got back to where she stood.
"The three of you," he ssid, pointing to the silent members of Team CAOS. "I am entrusting you with a mission."
Carmine's eyes widen. "What would that be sir?" he asked.
"i need you to keep a close eye on your team mate, and tell me if anything odd happens with him."
"Define odd," Amber demanded.
Ozpin thought for a second. "Anything that seems odd for him to do."
"Thats not much to go on," Amber replied.
Ozpin sighed. "If he does anything worrying, contact me."
"Amber will have a lot to talk about with you then," Olivine commented.
"Hey!" Amber shouted.
Suddenly the room dropped ten degrees, as Glynda gave them each a cold stare. Silence fell again.
With all said and done, Ozpin stood. "I'm trusting you to be able to change Sean for the better. He needs friends." Under his breath, he added, "Even more than you know."
