We arrived at the meetup site for the initiation, I looked around to see many people either nervous, pump, or straight out looking at me. "Everyone should be focused on the initiation instead of me, huh guys?" I say this to Ruby and Yang while they watched me hold Dianna back by holding her ponytail.

Yang just ignores Diannas struggle to get free and looks around. "It seems like a lot of people came but just how many are strong." She gives off a big smirk while punching her fists together. I get tired of holding Dianna back so I let her go only for her to lose her balance, and bumps into someone wearing all black. She quickly moves away from him and apologizes. "I'm sorry about that, I tripped and fell forward."

He just nods to her accepting her apology and then turns to stare at me. "I heard you were going to join also, I hope you got stronger." He tells me with a blank expression while Yang, Ruby, and Dianna just stared at us confused. I give him a smirk, "of course I have, I'm not going to stay the same as back then, although I never finished my training but that doesn't matter."

Before he was able to say anything back we hear the sound of a cane tapping the ground, we turn to find professor ozpin walking to the front of all the students. Ozpin looks at me and nods to me, then faces the students. "Now, we are here to start your initiation, you have all trained a long time for this moment, do not hesitant to destroy everything in your path, or you will die." He finishes as he turns to professor goodwitch as she steps forward. "Now to put an end to the rumors, you will get your partner today." As she says this the students start to talk. "The first person you make eye contact with once you start will be your partner, for the four years you will be here." This caused a commotion between the students but it stopped once Ozpin steps forward. "Your mission is to go through emerald forest and find an artifact, once you find the artifact head towards the end point."

"Any questions? No? Good, now get ready to start." Ozpin says as the students prepare themselves to start. We start getting ready to start, while the same blond boy from the airship was asking questions. I turn to see the students getting sent flying into the air from the launch pads. "Well, lets see how this will go." I tell myself as I turn to Dianna and see her smile to me right before she is sent flying. I grab onto my weapon the moment I get sent flying. I see everyone flying in different directions then turn to see where I am falling to. "Now then, how to land?" I question myself as i'm picking up speed. I put my katana in front of me and activate its shotgun form and point it in front of me. "Hopefully, I won't get hurt." I start shooting to make the recoil reduce my speed as i'm falling down, as I get close to a tree I stop shooting and get ready for the tree branches. I try to land on the branches but my speed was too high and I kept breaking each branch until i passed all the branches and land on the ground with my feet and all the branches land right behind me. "Well, that could've gone better but oh well."

I look around to see where I am and see nothing but trees and I let out a sigh as my weapon turns back into its katana form and I put it back to my side. "Damn, I must be a good distance away from the ruins, well might as well try to find them." I start walking towards the direction I thought will help me arrive to the ruins until I heard something in the forest, I quickly put one hand onto my weapon and wait for it to come out. I stay still while listeing to it getting closer and the instant I see it walk out senses go fully active. "Why is this grimm here?" I ask myself as I look at the Griffon grimm that is staring me down. "Just my luck, first few minutes of the initiation and I already meet a strong grimm." As it gets ready to jump to me, something falls down from a tree and slashes one of its wings off and it jumps away right after. I look at who was responsible for hurting it and laugh. "Of course you have to take the spotlight huh." I tell the person while smiling. "You were taking too long that i had to show up." He says as he lifts up his buster blade to his shoulder. "That or you just couldn't hold yourself back when you saw the grimm staring me down and not paying attention to anything else, am I right Hideki?"

He shakes his head and looks at me. "I should've let the grimm attack you, maybe you would get serious." I look at him while giving him a playful hurt expression. "Is that how you feel about me, that you would let me get attacked by a grimm?" Hideki just nods at my reaction, while the grimm attacks me. "Well, jokes aside how about we deal with this thing?" I asked while I jumped away from the attack. I land and get into a IAI sword stance and watch as the grimm gets ready to attack me, I watch as it jumps towards me with one of its claws aiming right for me. I stay motionless watching it coming towards me, waiting for my chance to attack.

I instantly slash at its arm once I saw my chance slashing it clean off. The grimm gives out a screech and tries to flee using its one wing. "You figure out you can't win and decide to run huh." I get ready to do another IA slash, but I see something coming down from the air. "Huh….isn't that…?" As I was looking up, I see Hideki slashing down with his Buster Blade towards the grimms head while wearing a stoic expression on his face. I stand up straight and sheath my weapon and let out a sigh. "Wants me to get serious but still takes the best part." I say while seeing Hideki slash the grimm in the middle of its face splitting it in half. "You took too long…." He starts to walk away after saying this. "All you told me was to get serious which I did, you never said not to take my time." I walk past the grimm body that was vanishing catching up to him and starting walking in the direction we believe will get us to the ruins.

I look up to the sun while we continue walking. "We still have a good amount of time left, but we should finish this as quickly as possible." He simply nods and kept walking. "So i hope your at least a bit stronger than before or it would have been pointless to join the school." I chuckle at his remark and was about to respond until we heard movement in the forest and stopped and put our hands on our weapons. We wait in silence ready to react to anything that pops out, instantly a blade like whip appears and aims straight for Hideki, who reacts by bringing out his weapon using it as a shield.
