Yang Xiao Long let out a sigh as she watches the sky from the airship that was heading towards to Beacon Academy.
It's been ten years since she last saw her little brother. The one she and her father abused so much for 5 months causing the little red hooded boy to run away from home. She and her father realized their mistake after Qrow decided to snap some sense to them after learning what his nephew has gone through.
For 10 years she and her father search for Rune with the help of Qrow and their connections in hoping to find the red hooded boy and asked for his forgiveness for what they done to him.
But Rune was not found even with Qrow and Ozpin connection. Rune was never been found. She knew that Rune was hiding and was making sure that he would never be found by them.
She clenches her fist as she looks at the window of the airship. She was determine in finding Rune again and hope that they would become a family again.
That's why she join the academy in become a huntress. Hoping that one day that she will not only be able to find her mother but Rune as well.
'I promise to bring you back Rune. My baby brother.' Yang thought as she continues to stare at the sky through the window of the airship.
Unknown to her that Rune was only a few feet away from her and was reading a magazine about weapons. Rune is known to be a weapon dork since he was obsessed with weapons. But he can easily manage to control himself since growing up in the street make you learn to have self-control to survive certain situation.
Rune was thinking back his meeting with the local weapon dealer faunus name Rock. He knew Rock in a young age and he was the one who helped him forge his Crescent Rose and another fact that Rock is also a former member of the White Fang. He saw Rock as an older brother figure and was one of the few people he can trust.
"Yo Rock!" Rune said as he enters one of the hidden shops in Vale. Rock was a wolf faunus with gray ears and tails. He was around his mid-twenties and the man has black hair and amber eyes.
"Rune! What brings you here?" Rock asked as he placed down a box of different weapons.
"You would never believe what happened to me yesterday." Rune said as he approached the man. He started to tell the story about the robbery until all the way to offer in becoming a hunter.
After hearing the story, Rock was completely shock at hearing this and soon a big grin appeared on his face. "Congratulation Rune! I'm proud of Ya!" Rock said with a grin on his face as he pat Rune back. Rune just gave him a small smile.
"Thanks Rock." Rune said.
"Well since, you're gonna need some things to help you." Rock said and Rune just raised a brow at him. Rock went to back and Rune started to hear some noises there.
'What is he up to?' Rune thought as he continues to hear some noise in the back. Soon the noise stop and Rock came out from the back and walk towards to Rune.
"Rune I wanted you to have this." Rock said as he reveals in his hand was a pair of black gloves but Rune notice that there was a silver ball attached to it and it has 4 different color. Red, Blue, Green and Brown.
"What's this?" Rune asked. Rock grinned at him and put the gloves on.
"This, my friend is my newest weapon that I created. It's called Synchronized Dust Projection gloves. This gloves will allow you to create weapons from a certain element that you want." Rock said before he activated the gloves and soon a sword of ice was created into Rock hand. Rune eyes widen in surprised in seeing this.
"Awesome" Rune said with awe look on his face.
"That's not even the best part. You can channel the selected element that you want through your weapon. Which really gives you the edge in the battlefield." Rock said and soon the small ball on the gloves hit the red part of the gloves and it was activated and soon the ice sword was now had orange outline at it.
"Woah, that's so cool" Rune said as he was simply amazed at Rock new weapon. Rock made the sword disappeared and deactivated the gloves.
"I was planning to give it to you as a birthday gift but seeing that you're going to join the Academy soon and will be gone at least 4 years. I think I this would be the perfect time that I give you this." Rock said and this completely shock Rune in hearing this.
"Rock I-"
"Rune, you wanted to become a hunter and I'm full support of it. Beside you're the only family member that I have left. I consider you as my brother in all but blood." Rock said solemnly. Rune was completely shock at hearing this and couldn't help but shed a small tear in hearing this. This man also see him as a family also. That was more than enough reason for Rune to accept the gift.
"Thank you" Rune said as he accepted the gloves. Rock smile and place his hand on Rune shoulder.
"I believe now we celebrate for you joining the academy. Come on My treat!" Rock said as he dragged Rune outside to celebrate.
Rune chuckled in remembering that memory before he continues reading back at the magazine that he was holding.
"Hello, and welcome to Beacon." Rune heard Glynda voice. He stop his reading and looks up and saw a hologram of Glynda and decided to listen.
"My name is Glynda Goodwitch. You are among a privileged few who have received the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy. Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future Huntsman and Huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now, it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge the training to protect our world."
As Ms. Goodwitch finished her introduction and her hologram vanished. Rune looks outside and saw Vale just below him. He knew now that he was close to Beacon Academy. He let out a sigh and closes his magazine. He looks at the gloves that Rock gave and smiled at it. He promised himself that he will become a hunter and will surpass his mother.
Soon the airship finally and Rune walks out along with the other students of Beacon Academy. He looks at his surroundings.
'So this is Beacon Academy.' Rune said as a small smile appeared on his face. The campus was very wide and open. He saw that it was like one of those fantasy land that he read in the when he was very young.
Rune snaps out from his thoughts and immediately heading towards to the Amphitheater where the ceremony will be held. He pulls up his hood to make sure that no one will be able to recognize him.
Yang let out a sighs as she now standing before the entrance of Beacon Academy. This was the first step in becoming a hunter.
Yang was accompanied by her friends as they made their way towards the Amphitheater and she was enjoying a good time with them. When suddenly she saw something that caught her attention.
A red hood student.
'Rune?' Yang thought in shock as she saw the red hood. Yang rubbed her eyes to make sure that she wasn't hallucinating. But sadly the red hood student disappeared in her sight. Yang was completely shock in what she just saw.
'Maybe, I was just imagining things?" Yang thought before she was snapped out her thoughts by her friends and proceed to enter the theater.
Rune was leaning against the wall of theater as he looks around. He saw that there many students that filled the place. Rune guessed that they were either freshmen or upperclassman. Rune could tell many of them were really powerful hunters in training but not in his level.
Living in the streets and learning from books and veteran hunters has definitely has it perks. Rune was born with big amount of Aura that would have been impossible to control if he didn't start his early training. Rune has not full control of his aura yet but he definitely has most control of his aura so that he could perform different manipulation of Aura because of his great control.
Rune continues to watch the gathering of the students and soon the noise stop as everyone turn their attention to the stage and saw Ozpin appeared before them.
"Welcome students. I am Prof. Ozpin, headmaster of Beacon." Ozpin said before he continued. "I'll...keep this brief. You have traveled here today in search of knowledge-to hone your craft and acquire new skills. And when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look amongst you, and all I see is wasted energy, in need of purpose-direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step. That is all." Ozpin finished before walking off stage and soon Glynda came forward and told them at where they will be staying.
Rune let out a sigh before walking out from the Amphitheater. He was deep in his thoughts in what Ozpin said. Ozpin speech was a little bit…off. It wasn't that welcoming for the freshmen.
Rune was deep in his thoughts that he wasn't able to see who he bump into.
"Hey watch it!" Rune looks to who he bump into. It was a girl that was 2 years older than him and she has white hair that was tied into a ponytail and has blue eyes and pale skin. Rune notice that she has a scar in her face on the left side near her eyes. She wore white dress with white skirt. But Rune notice the symbol of her clothing.
'A Schness?' Rune thought. What would a Schnee doing here in academy when they could join Atlas military program? Rune quickly snapped out from his thoughts and look back at the girl, who was glaring at him.
"Sorry" Rune said as he apologize for his action. He was about move pass her when suddenly Rune felt that something grabbed his hood.
"Hey, I was talking to you!" The white girl said. Rune turns around and just look at her with a blank look on his face.
"What's the big deal? I already apologize." Rune said rudely to her. The girl was taken aback by his attitude and glares at him.
"Do you have any idea who you are talking to?!" The girl said and Rune just gave the deadpan look that said 'I don't give a shit.'
"No, And I don't care. Goodbye." Rune said as he slapped the girl hand away from his hood and started to walk away. The girl face was completely shock at this and her face turned red from anger and embarrassment. She march up and was about to grab him when suddenly Rune disappeared before she could grabbed him.
The girl blink a few times as her brain was gathering what just happen. After a few seconds the girl just grumble as she walks away from the scene and was planning on getting back at the red hooded boy.
Rune, who was hiding in one of the trees let out a sigh before he moved out from his hiding spot. "Rock was right. Girls are nothing but troublesome creatures." Rune just decided to head to where they will staying for the night so that he can rest up for the initialization tomorrow.
It was night time and Rune was changing to his pajamas which was consist of a black shirt with a symbol of a rose in the back and white shorts. Rune was putting his stuff away in his locker. He closed his locker and grabbed his pillow and bed sheet and was heading to main hall to where all the students were resting. Rune looks for a spot and saw one near in one the windows. Rune place the bed sheet and pillow down and lie on it.
He was staring at ceiling and thoughts were running in his head.
'What would happen in the initiation tomorrow? Would there be chance that I would run into…Yang' Rune face turn grimed as he thought of his former older sister. He really hoped that he won't run into his former sister. He doesn't know what he will do if that ever happens.
'What the heck am I thinking? I need to get some sleep' Rune thought before his eyes closes and decided to rest for the night. He wants to be fully prepared for tomorrow initiation and only hoped for the best.
