Chapter One: Haven, Mistral
I have finally arrived at my stop. I saw a sign pointing to the left that had the words Haven written on it. I started following the sign, then I heard a loud noise behind me. It was a motorcycle, and it had yellow and a little bit of orange on it. A young woman was riding it. She must have noticed me because she was slowing down.
"Need a ride?" She asked. "Um… yes. I'm heading to Haven. Will you take me or is that out of your way?" I asked.
"You're just in luck. I'm heading there myself. Hop on."
I thanked her and hopped on the back of her motorcycle.
"Hold on!"
I held onto her shoulders and she zoomed down the path. I almost lost balance, but held on.
"What's your name, miss?"
"Titania Crimson, yours?"
"The name is Yang Xiao Long. Nice to meet you Titania. So, why are coming to Haven? Other than becoming a huntress of course."
"To get revenge for my village. Those nasty Grimms tore it apart and I was the only one to survive. My family, my friends, all of my dear ones are gone."
"I'm sorry for your losses. It must have been painful."
"It was, and I will never forget them, even if I only knew them for a little bit. Anyway, Why are you headed to Haven?"
"To see my friends again. We parted ways after the Grimm attacked Beacon Academy. I'm starting my second year there."
"Beacon was attacked by the Grimm? That's strange. Why would they do that?"
"I have a theory, but I'll save it for later. We're here."
We saw a gigantic building with the words Haven written across. "Wow, it's beautiful. Bigger than I imagined. What is it like on the inside?"
"Don't know, but we will find out." She rode her motorcycle closer to a gate. We got off and she locked it up.
"Thanks again for the ride."
"No problem, glad I saw you on the way."
We walked up to the front doors, but I heard another noise behind me. It was huge, almost like a hot air balloon. It landed on the ground and four people walked off. A girl in a red hood, a guy in armor, another girl in pink, and another guy in green. The balloon went back up again and took off. Those four started walking up to Haven, until the girl in the red hood ran up to Yang and hugged her.
"Yang! I missed you so much!" The red hood girl said.
"I missed you , too, little sis." Yang said.
"How's your arm doing?"
Yang rolled up her right sleeve and I saw a robot arm.
"Wow, it looks so cool! What happened?" I asked.
"Oh, Ruby, this is Titania. Met her on the way here and gave her a ride. Titania, this is Ruby."
"Nice to meet you, Titania."
"The same to you. Nice hood. Who are your friends?"
Ruby's friends approached behind her and she introduced them to me.
"This is Jaune, Nora, and Ren." Ruby pointed to the guy with the armor first, then the girl in pink, then the guy in green.
Nice to meet you all. I'm Titania."
"You're so pretty Titania. You got a boyfriend?" Nora asked.
"Thank you, and sadly, I did. We dated for three years, but the Grimm attacked our village and I was the only one to survive. My boyfriend, James, and I were running, but he slipped and fractured his foot. I couldn't save him. My parents are probably gone, too, and all my friends and neighbors." I almost cried right in front of them, but I didn't. I kept the tears in.
"We're sorry to hear that, Titania." Jaune said.
"We'll be your friends." Ren said. "You're becoming a huntress, right?"
"Yeah, what kind of weapon do you have?" Yang asked.
"Yeah, I've got a nice looking whip. It's a meter and a half long. It also turns into a rifle gun." I pulled out my whip and showed to everyone. Once they looked at it for a few seconds, I backed up and lashed it in the air so my rifle gun was on my shoulder.
"Wow! That is the most coolest, interesting choice of weapon. Would have never guessed something like that." Jaune said.
"You got a name for her?" Ruby asked.
"Yeah, her name is Black Torch." I said.
"Cool name. What about semblance?" Yang asked.
I don't like to brag, but uh...I guess I will." I used my polarity on a metal stop sign pole. I brought it towards me and looked like I was directing traffic. "Hehe, I got a very humorous personality, sorry." I put the stop sign back in place. I looked back at everyone and they were staring at me, like I had something on my face.
"You know, if you think about it, she kinda looks like her guys." Yang said.
"Like who?" I asked.
"No, no she doesn't. Do not bring her up, she's gone guys, end of story." Jaune said.
"Come on , Jaune. Just look at her. Red hair, green eyes. She has the same semblance. You can't deny it." Ruby said.
"I don't understand. What's going on?" I asked again.
"Titania, I'm going to ask you something. Will you give us a honest answer?" Ren asked.
"Sure, I'll try."
"Does this look familiar to you?" Jaune asked showing me his sword and shield.
"No, not at all." I said.
"Look closer. Anything come into mind?" Ren asked.
"No, I'm really sorry. Is there something I'm suppose to be seeing?"
"Ok, how about her? Does she look familiar?" Jaune showed me a picture of a girl with red hair and green eyes, just like me.
"No, she doesn't look familiar, but why does she look like me?"
"That's our question. We thought you might know, but I guess not." Yang said.
"Let's all go inside. There's going to be an announcement before we start the exam for the new teams." Ruby said.
Right, let's go." Ren said.
Everyone went inside, except me. I don't know what they were talking about, but I'm sure I will find out.
"You coming, Titania?" Yang asked.
"Yeah, hold on." Soon I'll find some answers.
