Chapter 4: The Test

"Wha do you think she meant by that?" Everyone had gotten up after sleeping in the cafeteria. Professor Ozpin had sent a message to all the new students on their scrolls to head to the Cliff on the edge of the school. The eight people in our group had been discussing what the test might be and what Yang had meant when she said "Pick the matching relics?" "I don't know about these relics, but We'll figure it out when we get there. There's no point in worrying about it now!" I was still kinda sore from yesterday's beating from Ruby, but I was still totally prepared for whatever Ozpin was going to throw at us. "We will just have to group up when we are down there to show that we're a team!" At least everyone agreed with that.

Once everyone was situated at the cliff, we saw Professor Ozpin standing there and a women I knew from Hunter Magazine, Professor Goodwitch. Once Ozpin had seen that we were all situated he started to speak. "I have brought you all here today to split you up into groups of four, you might want to get cozy together because you will be with your team for the next four years, everybody got that good, that being said, you will be thrown off this cliff into the Emerald Forest, the first person you make eye contact with will be your partner for the next four years as well." I looked at my friends, new and old, and they looked pretty shaken up, I didn't break down though, I have never been one to freak too much over a challenge. "Now prepare in whatever way you want, for you will now be launched into the forest. You will need to work together to head to the end of the forest and obtain one relic and make it back here. I shall start the countdown. 10. 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1 and good luck." They were all launched into the air at the same time, some of the people in the air were freaking out, but my three friends and I just got into formation mid air and prepared for landing. We all stacked on top of each other and pushed out fifty feet above the ground, I pulled out Star and slammed it into the side of a tree on my way down, I was quickly stopped and used my momentum to do a flip up onto my sword, knowing it wouldn't break under my weight. I balanced ontop of it for a second before pulling my sword out and fell from the tree... Right ontop of someone. "HEY, GET OFF OF ME YOU DOUCHE!" I suddenly heard the click of a gun under me and was suddenly blasted into the closest tree. "Aww jeez, that fuckin hurt!" I turned back at the person I landed on and saw, none other than Aries, with her shotgun pointed up at me. "Well, let's get moving partner" I said. She said. "Yeah, whatever, keep your sword at the ready, we don't know what we are going to come across."

"Yeah, yeah."

"Whatever lets just keep moving."

I put out my hand to help her up, but se just brushed it away and got up on her own then she said, "I saw some ruins while I was in the air, I'm pretty sure they were this way, they might have the relics there."

"Ok, sure lets go check it out. I hope Virgo and Ryon got partnered up, I bet that's how it works, we get into partners down here, then we get the matching relics as couples to become teams."

"Wow." Aries replied. "I never thought you'd say something so logical, your usually just a dumbass!"

"Shut up, and let's go." We started walking, after about thirty minutes I felt setting in my Aura. "Hey, Aries wait up. You feel that?"

"Yeah, I get the feeling we're being watched.." Suddenly, 3 Ursa burst out of the bushes and came running at us. I jumped out of the way, But Aries stood her ground and started pumping out shots right into the Ursa's faces. She took one out before it got to her and jumped cleanly over the other two as the steam past her. I was already on my feet, I ran forward and slashed at one of the Ursa's, it tried swiping at me, but I dodged every one of their attacks, I finished it off with a stab in the eye, and a couple of shots from the pistol while my sword was still stuck in its mine was dead, I looked over at Aries to see her finish hers with a shot right down the throat of the Grimm.

She looked over to me and said. "That was fun! Let's keep moving though, we don't want to be the last ones to the ruins do we?

Virgo's pov

Once we had separated in the air, I flung towards the top of one of the trees and curved Pallet around the trunk, riding it all the way to the bottom. I had cleanly landed when I looked around. There was none of my friends in sight, I was alone. Then I heard a loud scuffle and a couple of loud shots. "That's Aries shotgun, i hope she's okay." The second I started walking towards the shots, something came flying out I the trees and rolled cleanly in front of her. Now, where there was empty air a second before stood Trey. He stood there for a second before he pulled out his guitar. "Hey, Trey, isn't a guitar an instrument, not a weapon?" When he didn't respond i realized that he had his headphones in and didn't even realize she was there. Then suddenly, 2 Beowolves burst out of the bushes and ran to attack us. I started to prepare myself for battle, but in a second I could suddenly hear Treys headphones, playing a guitar solo. I looked over to him, just as he burst forward holding the guitar by the end of it, the guitar then opened up and blades came out of it, like a huge battle axe. He started attacking the wolves in a very fluid motion when I realized what was happening, he was fighting to the beat of his music. "That must be his semblance, he can copy his musics sound and transfer it into battle!" Trey then killed both of the Grimm in a final swipe of his Axe guitar. After they were dead, he switched his guitar back and ran forward, I just watched him leave. It took me a minute to take In what just happened, when Ryon just kinda stumbled out of the bushes behind her. "Hey Virgo, let's go find those relics." I looked up and nodded, praying that Leo and Aries are okay.
