"What!? You're going to a fighting school without me!?" I sigh sitting on my bed. I had expected this. "Well, it doesn't become a full blown fighting school until a certain grade. For now it's mostly going to focus on building up physical capabilities, tactical intelligence, and basic education." I explain.

"Besides I'm still older than you it's expected for me to get into school before you." I try to patch up her feelings. "But, that was never the case when we were in high school!" She argued.

"That's because I was held back a year in kindergarten, I could have gone on, but I really liked kindergarten. You know this." She sighed, "Well yeah... But... Ughhh!" She groaned frustrated. "Wait, the reason you are getting enrolled is because of your semblance right?"

I look at her my eyes narrowing in suspicion. "Yeahhhhh, and?" She sighed again probably thinking I didn't know where this was going. "Well, if we find my semblance, I can come with you!" I cross my arms. "Its not that simple Star, I found mine from a traumatic incident, y'know seeing my mom from this place die, horribly." She slumped onto her bed, her legs still hanging off the side...

Stella POV

"Yeah I know, but it's just. We've been separated for a whole year and I really missed you. Now we're finally together again and they want to separate us, AGAIN!" I said trying really hard not to cry. "But this is important to me, to both of us and I really want to do this. I really missed you too and besides your bound to get in later," she said trying to comfort me. "But, it's just-it's just not fair," I cried. I got up and flopped face first onto my pillow and let the tears fall.

"I know, it bothers me too. I really missed you, it was cold without you around. But we know how the story is. In order to survive we need to learn how to fight and you'll get your chance I'm sure of it. For now though only I have the opportunity. And yes it's not fair, but neither of the worlds we've lived in are that fair, now are they?" Jay said keeping calm despite her words.

I felt her hand on my back trying to calm me down. I sighed knowing she was right and that there was nothing I could do to change what was happening. "Alright, I'll accept it but that doesn't mean I'm gonna be ok with it," I said looking up at her. She smiled lightly but then it turned into a frown. She slumped onto my bed next to me and rubbed her eyes in frustration.

"I'm not really that okay with it either... But it's the only thing that makes sense to me right now..." I flipped myself over and just stared at the ceiling. I should really ask Ms. Keen if I can paint it like the night sky. "Hey, what do you think my semblance is? Oooh, what if it's super strength! Or, or time travel! Oh now I really want to find out! Oh what if we just do a bunch of tests thingys to try and find it!" I exclaimed happily.

I here Jay mutter, "Here we go again.." Then actually replies,

"No."

"Yeeeessss!"

"No, unless you want me to murder Ms. Keen to find out what your semblance is."

"Um, then again maybe not today, or tomorrow, or ever."

"Good, now get some sleep."

"Ugh how do you go to sleep so easily and early?!"

*snore* "Nice try, you don't snore when you sleep." *mouth breathing noises* "ugh, now that I believe."

...

"Today is Operation Cookie Crumbs." I whispered to Jay. She just looked at me and rolled her eyes before going back to whatever she was sketching. Probably a swan or some other type of bird. She has a theme going on right now. I turned to the other kids I usually played with and started strategizing. I pulled out a hand drawn map that I made using Jay's art stuff. I'm sure she won't mind too much.

"Alright cadets here's our mission. We're going to get cookies for everyone. Alice, you and Jason will distract Ms. Keen by pretending to fight over this jump rope. Carly and I will sneak into the kitchen and retrieve the goods. Mario will be our look out. If you see anyone coming give us the signal. Are you ready team? Let's go go go!" I shout making a salute to my loyal cadets.

We got into position and soon enough our part of the mission was ready to roll. We sneak through the side door and watch as one of the ladies... Ms. Bellum baked another tray of cookies. I heard somebody start walking through the main door of the kitchen... Was it time to abort the mission? No, I can't let my loyal cadets go hungry! I steel myself ready for whoever entered. The person walked in revealing...

Jay! She walked towards Ms. Bellum and yanked on her sleeve softly. She looks at Jay and Jay starts talking to her. "Hey, Ms. Bellum... Is it okay if I take... Twelve cookies from the tray? Stella, Mario, Alice, Carly, Jason and I would like something to snack on." Ms. Bellum smiles at her and pats her on the head.

"Of course Jay go right ahead and do tell Stella and Carly that there is no reason to try and steal them." She said sounding more and more exasperated as the conversation goes on glancing at us as she says our names. I freeze slightly feeling a blush come across my face. I walk out my shoulders slumped as I walked out. I could see Carly following my example.

Jay stood outside waiting for us munching on a cookie. "Why did you do that!? I ask as she finished the last bit of crumb. She hands Carly and me two cookies and says. "I wanted a cookie too and I doubt that you would remember to get me one." She says in the familiar low drone of her voice. "Of course I would!" I argue right back.

"Besides, I'm pretty sure you would've taken way more than I would have and you would #1 spoil your dinner, #2 not leave enough for the rest of the orphanage making Ms. Bellum work extra hard, and #3 Ms. Bellum would have probably caught you and you would be in actual trouble." I stare at her. "Ugh! Will I ever win an argument with you?!" She smiles at me finishing her last cookie and patting me between my ears. "You've won plenty of arguments, I just happen to be a better winner than you." I huff, tempted to bite her hand. "Ugh!"...

...

Walking back and forth I frowned at the door. They had locked me up! I turned to the window and I felt tears collect in the corner of my eyes. Jay was leaving and I couldn't stop her! Jay can't leave I just got her back. I started pounding on the window. Jay who had been walking to the car turned around.

She waved at me and gave me a sad smile. Was she crying? I can't let Jay go alone, I need to get to her! As the thought passed my mind I saw the colors of the room shift and soon enough I was behind Jay. A blaze of colors accompanied the normal blue of my friend. They were flower petals of all types...

Pretty. I grab her and I hear an exhale of air. "Wow how did you get out here? I thought they locked you up," said Jay confused. I was practically vibrating with excitement when I said, "Guess who just found her semblance~" "I'll make a call to Glynda." "Yaysies!" "No, just no. That's still not a thing that anybody can and should say."

Jay POV

I stare at the imposing figure of the building freaking out on the inside. I was going to fighting school. The school that I believe Pyrrha had actually gone to if I remember correctly. Sanctum academy was home to ten thousand students age ranges 6-18... Stella was unfortunately going to have to wait a year before getting enrolled. (She was 5 years old)

Though she was making me write a letter to her every day. The youngest, 6-10, were not in any combat classes, as they had to build up their strength so they had a large amount of physical education. Along with basic education and since I had found my semblance... Aura control. I had about seven classes each seventy minutes long. Yayyyyy. Sarcasm doesn't help this situation... I'm doomed...

...

After getting some guidance from the front desk. The lady had given me the layout plan of the building on my new scroll. I settled into the dorm soon after. Unpacking everything from my blue suit case and panda backpack.

I got to pick the first bunk. I quickly picked a bottom bunk near the heater. I move in my sleep a lot. As soon as I finish with my bunk I hear a door open. I look to the front of the room and a red headed little girl walks in. I stare at her and I see her face change into a light pink.

"H-hi." She said waving at me. I smile at her lightly and wave my hand. "Hi, I'm Jay and I guess we're going to be bunk mates" I see herself calm down. "Pyrrha" she says quietly looking to the side. Oh my gosh... Eh, I'm over it. Glynda had taken the fan worship out of me. "Well let's try our best to get along." Her smile seemed brighter. "Yeah" And she took the top of my bunk...

A/N: Pyrrha is one of my personal favorite characters. I find her hilarious/badass and she is my favorite out of Team JNPR, besides Nora. As soon as I started trying to figure out what combat school Jay would go to I realized that I wanted her to get to know at least one more canon character and the idea of Pyrrha took off from there. Hope you enjoyed it guys and have a great morning, afternoon, and evening.
