"Cardin Winchester, Russel Thresh, Dove Bronzewing, Sky Lark. You four retrieved the bishop relics. You are now team CRDL, lead by, Cardin Winchester.
'My god, he hasn't changed his presentation structure at all. Seriously, is this guy a robot? At least switch it up a bit,' I thought to myself.
Ozpin just continued, "Lie Ren, Nora Valkyrie, Jaune Arc, and Pyrrha Nikos. You for retrieved the rook pieces. You are now known as team JNPR, lead by, Jaune Arc.
'...Oh fuck,' I thought. I glanced at my team to my left. Nora was closest to me, holding a joyous expression on her face, and gave the finally named Lie, or Ren, whatever, a hug.
Pyrrha, on the other hand, was standing on the other side of Ren. To anyone not looking closely, she looked calm, but she was staring at me like she was thinking of either a way to kill or run away from me. Personally, I'd prefer the latter, but, eh.
My new team and I stepped down from the stage. Once out of sight of the general audience, Pyrrha put a greater distance between me and her. She was still afraid of me, but she seemed to have cooled down enough not to fly into a panic upon making eye contact.
In the other room, I heard Ozpin pronounce Ruby the leader of team RWBY, but I was more preoccupied with one though: 'What am I gonna do?!' I thought. Admittedly, I hadn't exactly had a plan for blending in at Beacon, maybe just fade into the background as a shy quiet guy. As recent events had demonstrated, however, that was no longer an option.
'Why did he have to choose me? He could have chosen Ren or...' I thought back to Pyrrha screaming that I was dead and running around like a lunatic, and Nora... yes. Definitely why didn't he choose Ren.
Team RWBY was the last team to be announced, so after their... team-ing, everyone was dismissed, and directions to our dorm rooms were sent to our scrolls.
"Oooh, I wonder what our room looks like?" Nora said, with considerable excitement, and zoomed off like Ruby's semblance. Ren, essentially being her leash, sprinted after her. Pyrrha, not wanting to be alone with me for obvious reasons, ran off after them. Then there was me. Just standing there. In a now deserted room. Alone.
I was their team leader, and they forgot about me... I don't know wither to be insulted or grateful. Either way, I should head to the room. I pulled out my scroll to check the directions to my dorm, and opened my inbox.
'Now, how do I view a message?' I thought, looking at the one 'New Message,' icon on my scroll. I tried tapping the little blue circle. 'Message Deleted.' Fuck.
