Chapter Six: I Don't Have A Schedule?
I woke up the next morning and all my teammates were up waiting for me by the door. Alistair and Evelyn were talking about kittens. I looked at Louis and he shrugged.
"Morning, sleeping beauty. How'd you sleep?" Louis asked.
"I had the most strangest dream. We were talking and then you…" I gasped.
"That was real, no dream."
"What was real?" Evelyn asked.
"I…" Louis tried saying, but I interrupted.
"No, nothing, nothing was real, end of story!" I said.
"Ok." Evelyn said with a confused look.
"Hey, Alistair, Evelyn, Could you step outside the room for a second?" Louis asked. "Titania and I need to talk, in private." Louis asked.
"Sure, Don't take long though, We can't be late to get our schedules." Alistair said.
Alistair and Evelyn walked out the door, and closed it slowly.
"So, about last night?" Louis asked.
"Look Louis, I understand now. You like me, and I appreciate it, but I just met you yesterday. My boyfriend just died a week ago and I don't plan on looking for another relationship. It was great and all, but I'm just not ready to take that big step again, not for a long time. I just want to be friends, and that's all I see from us." I said, trying not to be rude.
"I know, and I'm sorry. I know I just met you yesterday, but it feels like we've known each for quite a while. Don't you agree?"
"No, I don't want to be rude, but it feels like I still don't know who I am. Those visions I had yesterday really freaked me out, and I feel like it's telling me something, and I need help. Will you, Alistair, and Evelyn help me out?"
"Sure, you know I will, I'm pretty sure they will, too."
"Thank you. We should go now, don't want to be late."
"Right, by the way, I'm going to tell the team about my ears. I don't want anyone else to know, but you three, alright?"
"No problem."
We walked out the door and met back up with Alistair and Evelyn.
"What did you guys talk about?" Evelyn asked.
"It's a surprise." Louis said.
"Yeah, you guys will find out later tonight." I said.
"Ooo, I love surprises. I can't wait." Evelyn said.
We exited out the dorms and headed towards headquarters. We went inside and saw all the other people lining up for something. There were four lines. We looked where they started and there were desks with boxes that had files inside. They had signs above them with letters. The first line was an A-F line. The second one was a G-P line, then Q-S and finally T-Z. An announcer came up to us and told us to line up in the line that matches with the first letter of our last name. Mine was a C, so I had to line up in the A-Z line. Louis was E, so he was in the same line as me. Alistair's last name started with a W, so he went to the last line. Evelyn's last name starts with an S, so she went in the third line. I lined up behind a girl in a blue hood and she had an eyepatch over her left eye. She turned around to look at me and Louis and then looked away. I looked at Louis and he shrugged. I tapped on her shoulder and introduced myself. While we were talking, we moved up as the line was going.
"Hi, my name is Titania. This is Louis. What's yours?"
"Uh, it's...Crystal. It's...nice to meet you." she said in a calm voice.
"It's nice to meet you Crystal. What happened to your eye?" Louis asked.
"Uh, I'd rather not talk about it, if you don't mind. It just brings back terrible memories. I'm sorry."
"Oh, no worries. We are sorry for asking. What do you think about Haven so far?" I asked.
"It's pretty cool. The people here seem nice. The best part, my favorite role model goes here. Do you know Yang?"
"Yeah, actually, I just made friends with her. She gave me a ride here. Do you know her?"
"Oh, you're that girl. I knew that name sounded familiar. I went on the same train as you and saw you talking to a young boy. I'm sorry for what happened. So, you're friends with Yang, huh?" Isn't she cool?"
"Yeah, she's pretty cool. What classes do you think there is going to be?"
"Definitely Combat Classes. Maybe even Grimm History and Grimmology."
"Wow, I would love to learn more about Grimm. I hardly even know the names."
"It was nice talking to you, I'm at the front now. I can't wait for this school year. Bye now, Titania."
Crystal went up to the desk and told the lady her last name. She got her folder and waved at us. I waved back.
"You can go first." I said.
"Thank you." Louis said.
Louis went up to the desk and said his last name. He got his folder and waited by the wall for me. I went up to the to the lady and she looked at me strangely.
"Nikos? You should be in the second line."
"Um, no, my last name is Crimson. You must have gotten me mixed up with someone else." I said.
"I'm sorry, I did. What was the name again?"
"Crimson."
She looked through the folders and couldn't find mine.
"Sorry, you are not in here."
"Could you check again?"
Spell your last name."
"C-R-I-M-S-O-N."
"Nope, not in here. Check with the lady by the doors."
She pointed to a woman who was holding a folder. She looked like she was looking for something, or someone.
"Everything ok?" Where's your schedule?" Louis asked.
"It wasn't in there. She told me to go to the woman by the doors." I said.
"She might have your schedule. Go check."
I walked up to the woman with the folder and she ran up to me.
"Oh, Titania, there you are. I was looking for you. This folder is for you. I don't know what it is, but I know it's not a schedule. You must be a lucky girl. He told me you have to open it in private. I must be off now, got a busy day ahead of me."
"Wait! Who's he?!" I asked, but she already walked out the doors.
"That was weird." Louis said.
"I guess I'll find out what this is later then. Since I don't have a schedule, I will see you after classes are over. I'm going to go back to the room and open this. I'll see you later, alright?"
"Sounds good, see you later. I'll tell Alistair and Evelyn what happened."
I waved goodbye and headed to the dorms. I entered the room and jumped on top of my bed. I looked closely at the front of the folder. It said 'To" Titania Crimson From: Oscar(Ozpin).'
"Oscar? What's so important that he couldn't tell me in person?" I said to myself.
I opened the folder and there was a letter. I opened the letter and read it aloud.
"Dear Titania, you are probably wondering why you didn't receive a schedule. You also probably have a lot of questions. Well, first off, let's just say you are a reincarnation of Pyrrha Nikos. I didn't know at first, but when I saw you, you looked a lot like her. You might as well have the same semblance as her, am I correct? If so, then I was right. If you do have questions, please come see me where you first started your exam. I will be waiting. Hope to see you soon. Sincerely, Oscar(Ozpin). P.S. Told you we would meet again, that is if you want to. "
I thought about this for a long time and thought, ' I don't believe this. I'm just a normal girl and who is this Pyrrha Nikos girl? What did he mean by reincarnation? Oscar is right, I do have a lot of questions though. He also said same semblance. Pyrrha had polarity? Wait, Nikos. Why does it sound familiar? I thought back when I was in line to get my schedule. The lady at the desk asked if my last name was Nikos. Did she know Pyrrha? I still can't believe this is happening.' I jumped off my bed and thought again. There was a knock at my door. "Come in."
"Hello?" A familiar voice called.
"Yang? Oh, thank god it's you. I need help."
"Sure, what is it?"
I gave her the letter and she read it. She thought long and hard on this.
"Reincarnation?"
"I know right? What does that mean?"
"I don't know, but if it's really 'Ozpin', you should go. You can trust him. Want me to go with you?"
"No, I have to go alone. Thank you, Yang. I don't know what I would do without you."
"Hey, anything for a friend."
"Thanks again." I walked out of the room and out the dorms. I headed to the cliff and saw a figure standing next to the ledge. He was holding a cane. "Oscar?"
"I knew you would come. So, was I right?"
I used my polarity on his cane. "I have so many questions." I handed him back his cane.
"I know you do, so let's talk."
