Bruce. Ruby and Yang, alongside several other students, walk out of the ship and head down the paved path to the front of the school.
Ruby and Yang: (as they take in the entirety of Beacon Academy) "Wow..."
Bruce: Yeah, it's amazing when you see it for the first time.
Yang: Wait, you've been here already. (Se says as Ruby is still looking around)
Bruce: Ohh, Plenty of times!
Yang: But how!? you have to be a student to even come close to campus. (exasperated)
Bruce:Well... Ozpin knew my family, so he helps me in... finding a certain man.
Yang: "Well, The view from Vale's got nothing on this!" I'll ask about that later'
Ruby: (getting so excited she becomes a 2-D, starry-eyed, floating chibi) "Ohmygosh, sis! That kid's got a collapsible staff! And she's got a fire sword!" (she tries getting closer, but Yang pulls her sister by the hood back into realistic proportions) "Ow! Ooww!"
Bruce: Did you just say fire sword! (He says starting to get excited)
Yang: "Easy there, you two. They're just weapons!"
Ruby and Bruce: "'Just weapons'?
Ruby: They're an extension of ourselves! They're a part of us! Oh, they're so cool!"
Bruce: You can't bee a huntsman without one. And having one is so cool and awesome!
Yang: "Well, why can't you swoon over your own weapon? Aren't you happy with it?"
Ruby: (transforming her weapon into its scythe form, nearly hitting a passing student) "Of course I'm happy with Crescent Rose! I just really like seeing new ones. It's like meeting new people.."
Bruce: "but better..."
Ruby: "Took the words right out of my mouth"
Yang: (playfully pushing her sister's hood down over her face) "Ruby, come on, why don't you go try and make some friends of your own?"
Ruby: (taking off her hood) "But... why would I need friends if I have you and Bruce?"
Yang: "Well, i'm sure your boyfriend will look after you for a while"
Ruby: (blushing) W-What?
Yang: (in a flash, a group of other students surround Yang and they all dash down the road) "Actually, my friends are here. Gotta go catch up. 'Kay, see ya, bye!"
Ruby: (spinning and dizzy-eyed from Yang's sudden leaving) "Wait, where are you going?! Are we supposed to go to our dorms? Where are our dorms? Do we have dorms?" (stopping for a moment, still reeling) "I don't know what I'm doing..."
Ruby falls backwards into a luggage cart, catching the attention of Bruce. He rushes over, only to see someone is standing over her.
?: "What are you doing?!"
Ruby: (getting up on her hands) "Uh, sorry!"
?: "Sorry?! Do you have any idea of the damage you could have caused?"
Bruce: "Not much if your belongings are secured.
Ruby: (holding a case) "Uuhhh..."
?: "Give me that!" (she snatches the luggage from Ruby and opens it to reveal its twinkling-sounding contents) "This is Dust - mined and purified from the Schnee quarry!"
Bruce: " then why do you have it out in the open like that." He starts to get angry at the heiress and protective of Ruby.
?: " Be quiet, imbecile!"
Ruby: "Uuuhhhh..."
?: "What are you, brain-dead?" (holding out a vial of red Dust and shutting the case) "Dust! Fire, water, lightning, energy!"
Bruce: "Are you?! Stop beating on her and stop shaking it!" 'Getting real tired of you, Weiss'
Ruby: "I... I know..." (starts coughing from the Dust pouring into her face)
Weiss: "Are you even listening to me? Is any of this sinking in? What do you have to say for yourself?!"
Bruce: "For the love of OUM, WILL Y..."
Ruby, who had been receiving more and more Dust to her face, finally sneezes, which erupts into a full-blown explosion of flame, snowflakes, and electricity right onto Weiss. The bottle she had been holding flies over the courtyard and at the feet of Blake Belladonna, who picks it up and notices the Schnee Dust Company logo on the side as she reads from a book and looks over at the scene.
Weiss: (now covered in soot, though it quickly disappears) "Unbelievable! This is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about!"
Ruby: (apologetic and embarrassed) "I'm really, really sorry!"
Bruce: " No, don't apologize to this snobby, daddy's girl!" (his limit reaching its limits)
Weiss: "Ugh, you're both complete dolts! What are you even doing here? Aren't you two a little young to be attending Beacon?"
Ruby: "Well, I-I..."
Bruce: "Oblivious we are better than you if we made it early." ( He begins to gain a stern look that Blake remembers, but can't place who looked like that)
Weiss: "This isn't your ordinary combat school. It's not just sparring and practice, you know! We're here to fight monsters, so... watch where you're going!" ( She begins to get intimidated by his glare)
Bruce: How about you go neck yourself and watch how you talk to my friends! Not Everyone treats you like some Princess!"
Blake: (off screen, entering the conversation) "It's heiress, actually." (Ruby and Weiss look over as Blake approaches with the bottle, Bruce looking after remembering what he did to help her) "Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world."
Weiss: (smiling smugly) "Finally! Some recognition!"
Bruce: 'Just you wait'( Yeah, he's mad)
Blake: "The same company infamous for its controversial labor forces and questionable business partners."
Weiss: (getting angry again as Ruby chuckles) "Wha- How dare you- The nerve of... Ugh!" (gets up in Blake's face and takes the bottle from her, walking off in a huff as her helpers gather the luggage and follow)
Ruby: (to the storming Weiss, still sorry) "I promise I'll make this up to you!" (sighs) "I guess I'm not the only one having a rough first day... So, what's..." (sees Blake walking off as well, then collapses to the ground on her back) "Welcome to Beacon..." (she remains this way until a shadow comes over her)
Bruce: "At least you still have me"( he says as he lies down next to her)" Although I want to find that guy who has the chain-gun"
Ruby" " 'Sighs', so do I" ( she admits, despite her felling sad)
?: (holding out his hand) "Hey... I'm Jaune."
The pair looks up at the figure who said that, recognizing the man from he air ship.
Ruby: (taking his hand) "Ruby." (stands up) "Aren't you the guy that threw up on the ship?"
Beacon inside the walls are filled with scenic trees, arching architecture, and a winding road alongside a river, down which Ruby, Bruce and Jaune are walking.
Jaune: "All I'm saying is that motion sickness is a much more common problem than people let on!"
Bruce: "All I'm saying is that you should bring a bag if you can't handle it"
Ruby: (laughing) "Look, I'm sorry! Vomit Boy was the first thing that came to mind."
Jaune: "Oh, yeah? What if I called you Crater Face? And you Sadist?"
Ruby: "Hey, that explosion was an accident!"
Bruce: "Yeah, and never call me that. Or i might just become one."
He gives Jaune a dark grin, which scares him and lets him know to never call him that.
Jaune: "Ummm, well, the name's Jaune Arc! Short, sweet, rolls off the tongue - ladies love it!"
Bruce: "Really?"
Ruby: (skeptic) "Do they?"
Jaune: "They will! Well, I-I hope they will. My mom always says that... Never mind."
Bruce: "Sssssure."
Ruby: (giggles before a short, awkward silence falls) "So... I got this thing!" (she pulls out Crescent Rose and stabs it into the ground)
Jaune: "Whoa! Is that a scythe?"
Bruce: "Wow, bonus points for you, Jaune."
Ruby: "It's also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle!"
Jaune: "A-wha...?"
Bruce: "And, there they go."
Ruby: (cocks it, smiling) "It's also a gun."
Jaune: "Oh. That's cool!"
Bruce: "Dang right it is"
He quickly jumps back, simultaneous grabbing the scythe and swings it perfectly around his body. His two friends are shocked to say the least. He rejons them and gives the weapon back to her.
Ruby: "So Jaune, uhhh, what've you got?"
Jaune: "Oh! I, uh..." (unsheathes a blade) "I got this sword!"
Ruby: "Ooooohh!"
Bruce: "That kinda looks like the statue at the entrance"
Jaune: "Yeah, and I've got a shield, too!" (he gets his scabbard, raises his arm and expands the metal into his defense)
Bruce: "I don't see any other buttons"
Ruby: (touching the shield) "So, what do they do?"
Jaune: (fumbling with the shield as it retracts off his arm, expands, and retracts again before putting it back in place and finally shrinking it down for good, placing it on his belt) "The shield gets smaller, so when I get tired of carrying it, I can just... put it away..."
Bruce: "That seems legit."
Ruby: "But... wouldn't it weigh the same?"
Jaune: (dejectedly) "Yeah, it does..."
Ruby: (giggling) "Well, I'm kind of a dork when it comes to weapons, sooo... I guess I did go a little overboard when designing it."
Jaune: "Wait - you made that?!"
Bruce: "And Properly to!"
Ruby: "Of course! All students at Signal forge their own weapons! Didn't you make yours?"
Jaune: "It's a hand-me-down. My great-great-grandfather used it to fight in the war."
Bruce: "So it might be the statue's"
Ruby: "Sounds more like a family heirloom to me!" (laughs) "Well, I like it! Not many people have an appreciation for the classics these days."
Jaune: (sheathing his sword) "Yeah, the classics..."
Bruce: "Ohhh, don't get so down, it is a well made sword after all"
Ruby: (moving on again) "So why'd you help me out back there? In the courtyard?"
Jaune: (walking alongside her) "Eh, why not? My mom always says, 'Strangers are just friends you haven't met yet.'"
Bruce: "That is a good motto to live by"
Ruby: "Hmm." (looks around) "Hey, where are we going?"
Jaune: "Oh, I don't know! I was following you." (as the scene fades to black) "Y-You think there might be a directory? Maybe a food court? Some kind of recognizable landmark? Is, uh... Is that a 'no'?"
Ruby: (laughing) "That's a 'no'."
Bruce: " Don't worry guys, I know where to go some one"
The group moves after Bruce to the meeting to start their lives
