Previously
[All first year students are to report to the theater immediately for the assignment of teams] the voice of professor Goodwitch crackles over the intercom.
And now the show:
Viola POV
all of us first years that were in the gym are now headed to the theater. I have lost sight of the girl in the red hood so I sadly cannot use this chance to go talk to her. Well none the less I need to know if the people I have been assuming as my team is actually my team. As I head into the theater I notice that two display screens have been set up, presumably to show the faces of the reams along with their names.
While waiting for my team to be called I zoned out and missed a lot of the team names, until I heard the name of a certain faunus hating asshole being called. I seriously hate that guy.
"Cardin Winchester, Russel Thrush, Dove Bronzewing, Sky Lark... You four have retrieved the black bishop pieces, from today onward you will be known as team Cardinal (CRDL), Lead by, Cardin Winchester" Ozpin said.
"Hey Krona can I call them team airhead since all their names have to do with birds and the sky?" I asked my partner.
"Funny yes but have at least a little respect, they are our classmates after all." He replies.
"I say we take my gun and give them an ass full of lead." Allie buts in.
"Not a good idea unless you want to get kicked out and arrested for murder." I reply.
"Fine but can I at least prank the hell out of them?" she asks.
"Sure be my guest."
We hear Ozpin start to speak and quiet down. "Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Pyrrha Nikos, Lie Ren... You four have retrieved the white rook pieces, from this day on you will be known as team Juniper (JNPR), Lead by, Jaune Arc" we saw the boy, Jaune, speak and Ozpin reply but couldn't hear what was said.
"Ruby Rose, Blake Belladonna, Yang Xiao-Long, You three have retrieved the white knight pieces. Due to Ms. Schnee's attempt to kill another student she has been kicked out and arrested for attempted murder. We have instead brought the younger sister of Weiss Schnee, Winter Schnee to be Ruby Rose's partner. from this day on you will be known as team Ruby (RWBY), Lead by, Ruby Rose."
I could see from here the shock on the red hooded girl shock at being picked for the leader of the team. Good luck little one. I walked up the the stage and awaited the call out of my name, and hopefully the call out of my friends, I guess, names.
"Viola Corbeau, Allie Dracul, Luna Snowshade, Krona Eralon, you four have retrieved the black queen pieces, from this day on you will be known as team Valkyrie (VALK), Lead by, Viola Corbeau. Things are shaping up to be an interesting year..."

Narrator POV: Twenty miles south of Vale, The night after the team ceremony.
Over the ocean south of vale there is a spacial anomaly. This fact is known to three people, Professor Ozpin, Glynda Goodwitch, and Subject Delta-06. This spatial anomaly is unexplainable to most and is perceived to most who fly through it as a patch of turbulence.
Without warning suddenly a large meteor emerged from the anomaly and headed towards the emerald forest the meteor was moving slowly but sped up at an alarming rate, braking many laws of physics seeing as it had no propulsion. The meteor slammed into the emerald forest right over where Delta Wing was laying deep underground.
When the meteor slammed into the ground it knocked out the power within the underground lab long enough to free some of the subjects. The subjects freed were Delta Block 01-12. The newly freed subjects made their way to the surface in the mass confusion that followed the impact of the meteor. They looked each other in they eyes, not saying a word, they put their left fists together. On the back each of their left hands was a tattoo of a black triangle, a black delta. This was a silent promise to meet up again in the future they separated their hands and began to walk in different directions.
Delta-03, Ghost faded away as he walked away from the group alone. Delta-01,04,06, and 10 began to walk towards the Atlas mountains. Delta-07,09 and 11 began to walk towards the city of vale. Delta-02,05,08, and 12 began to wander the emerald forest before finding themselves lost within the miles of forest that surround Beacon academy. Before leaving the crash site of the meteor, Subject 02 used his semblance to compress the meteor into a small ball while keeping the same mass that it had, increasing both the weight and density of the object, he than reduces the weight to that of a small book while still keeping the same density and mass, than pockets it These actions broke many laws of physics and the universe.
back in Beacon Academy, Glenda Goodwitch had just called a full staff meeting to discuss the explosion in the emerald forest.
"We need to go into the forest to investigate the explosion" Glynda exclaims.
"On the contrary Glynda I believe that we should remain here to protect the students if this explosion is a failed attack on the school as you claim." a green haired man replies.
"I agree with Oobleck on this one Glynda" gray haired, portly, professor states.
"Thank you Peter" the now named Oobleck replies.
"It seems you are out voted here Glynda, we can investigate in the morning when we can actually see, but for now we should be easing the nerves of our students." Professor Ozpin says in a calming and soothing voice.
"Fine but we investigate first thing tomorrow morning." Glynda replies.
Deep within the laboratory a woman sits in her office in concern.
"Mistress Frost are you okay?" The computer asks
"I am fine, give me a status report." Ophelia Frost replies. She is the leader of this demented project.
"the Delta Wing was heavily damaged by the impact of a meteor. Testing batches 18-25 have expired and are unusable, Subjects Delta-01-12 are missing and untraceable."
"I want those subjects found and brought back dead or alive, Push the expired testing batches through the grinder and bring me the blood, the meat goes to the kitchens."
Subject 08/Reaper's POV
"We need to find a way out of this forest guys we will get captured out here" I say frustratedly
"I have an idea." Index says emotionlessly.
"Well lets hear it than!"
"D-don't yell please..." Alchemist says timidly.
"If Witch projects her orb approximately fifty feet directly up I can use it as a focus for my abilities and map an area of three approximately three hundred miles."
"I like that plan Index ill do it" Witch says.
Witch moves her orb fifty feet into the air above us and Index closes her eyes and focuses on the orb. She soon stands up and points in a direction.
"This way, there is a school this way." Index states. The girl looks like a twelve year old but in all actuality she is seventeen, bloody lolis. She has blond hair and eyes to match. She doesn't really know how to fight but she is good at gathering data and remembering details, she is also really Good at strategizing.
Alchemist is a shy fourteen year old with a seventeen year old mind and fighting ability. He has dark silver eyes and black hair, he hides most of his body under a tattered gray cloak. He also has bat wings, wolf ears, and a scorpion tail,as a result of him going through project chimera, His ability is very powerful but it is also dangerous, since he breaks the universal laws of physics using it it has a chance to rebound and cause him and anything around him harm.
Witch is a taller girl with silver hair and light brown eyes. She wears a low cut, Gothic style, strapless dress with dark purple thigh high stockings and black, two inch heals with roses on them. She also wears a hooded cloak that splits into two tails at the end. She always has this weird purple orb that floats around her, she can control it but it also seems like it has a mind of ts own. She excels in long and middle range combat but is sorely lacking in close range combat. She is eighteen years old.
I am known as Reaper, I have purple eyes and black hair. I cant really remember much else about my past except for my age and someone who looks exactly like me but isn't me. I am seventeen. I excel at close and middle range but I have no long range capabilities.
As I was monologing we had reached the base of a cliff. Sitting at the base were four sets of climbing gear with a note attached to one of them, It read:
I will watch and help when I can if you need me ill find you.
Your brother in the shadows, -G
it seems that ghost will be keeping in touch with all of us from the shadows. Thank you Ghost.
We sued the climbing gear that ghost left up to scale the cliffs. Once we reached the top we snuck around until we could find an entrance to the building. We crept around for at least an hour before we came across a tree the was outside a second story window.
I signaled to the others and we climbed the tree and I crept up to the window and used one of my weapons, dual sickles, to unlatch the window silently. I got the window and got everyone with out a sound. My plan was to sneak into the school gather information, gather our strength while remaining hidden in this school, Alchemist ruined that plan. Once we were inside we began to make our way to the door but Alchemist tripped over something, very loudly might I add, and crashed into something. The loud sounds must have woken up the occupants of the room because I soon found myself crashing through a door and landing in a bathtub. I soon had a sword to my neck. I could tell by the sounds in the other room that the others had gotten captured as well.
"Ruby contact Glynda, quickly we have to get them into the teachers hands ASAP!"
"...We're Fucked!
