Okay, before starting the chapter, I want to start with helping you guys guess Diamond's team. Here are the pokemon on Diamond team that I have revealed so far.
Infernape, Fire and Fighting.
Staraptor, Normal and Flying.
Garchomp, Ground and Dragon.
So look up the types that leave.
One Gen 4. And the other isn't actually Diamond's pokemon, which will explain why it is.
Chapter 5
Dive Bombing Head-First into a Forest! Fun!
Ruby walked into the Coliseum. She looked around before she heard someone yell her name. She looked over to a waving Yang.
"I saved you a spot!" Yang called.
Ruby ran over to her just as Jaune called out her name.
"Oh. Hey, I gotta go. See you after the ceremony!" Ruby said to Jaune.
"Hey, wait!" Jaune called as she was leaving. He was ignored.
"Great. Where am I supposed to find another nice quirky, girl to talk to?" Jaune said to himself. Not noticing the redhead with amazonian like armour. Diamond walked into the Coliseum, grumbling at the Pokeball in his hand. Ignoring the looks that most people would give when they saw you riding a Landshark in the sky, he looked for a seat when he saw Ruby. With Froslass the Snowoman next to her.
"Oh no."
Back with Ruby, she was having an awkward silence with Yang.
"How's your first day going little sister?" Yang asked
Ruby snapped back
"You mean since you ditched me and I exploded?!"
"Yikes, meltdown already?"
"NO! I literally exploded a hole in front of the school. There was some fire, and I think some ice."
"Are you being sarcastic?" Yang asked with a joking tone.
"I wish! I tripped over some crabby girl's luggage. And then she yelled at me! And then I sneezed. And then I exploded, and then I felt bad. And then Diamond insulted her, and,"
"YOU!" Weiss yelled. Ruby jumped into her sister's arms.
"Oh god, it's happening again!" Ruby cried out.
"You're lucky we weren't blown off the side of the cliff!" Weiss scolded.
"Oh my god, you really exploded," Yang muttered.
"It was an accident!" Ruby claimed.
Weiss pulled out a pamphlet.
"The Schnee Dust Company is not responsible," Weiss started.
"Woah there, Frosty. Let's stop right there before you turn into a legal ad." Diamond said from behind her, while also putting his hands on her shoulders.
Weiss used glare.
Diamond's Ego prevented stat change.
Weiss slapped off Diamond's hands.
Diamond howled in pain.
"It's been two minutes, and," Diamond commented.
"Shhh. The old guy is talking." Yang gestured to Ozpin on the stage.
"Ahem. I'll keep this brief," he started. The audience silenced.
"You have travelled 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 I see 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."
He paused for everyone to process this.
Diamond perfectly agreed with him. If you had the type advantage and knowledge of what his opponent was using, it didn't really matter with a level one against a level hundred.
"It is up to you to take the first step."
The girls looked nervous. Diamond shrugged.
"You will gather at the ballroom tonight," Glynda started.
"Tomorrow your initiation begins… Be ready. You are dismissed."
As people left the room Yang said: "He seemed… kind of off."
"Like he wasn't even there," Ruby followed.
"I'm a natural blond, ya know!" Jaune said, popping in from nowhere.
Diamond snickered
…
"Cinder."
The woman looked up Cyrus.
"Exactly what are you going to do?"
Cinder Fall looked at Cyrus's eyes eerily.
"Why should I tell you."
"Because I know something that could help you."
Cinder raised her eyebrow.
"Exactly what?"
(Cliffhanger lolololololo-Gengar! Stop deleting the-)
…
Ruby was writing on something when Yang called out.
"It's like a big slumber party!" Yang said flopping onto her sleeping bag while posing.
"I don't think dad would approve of all the boys though," Ruby said.
"Oh, I do," she said while looking at a few muscular boys. She then saw Jaune wave and looked back at Ruby.
"Oh, what's that?" Yang asked.
"A letter to the gang back at Signal. I promised to tell them all about Beacon and how things are going."
"Awwwww, that's soooo cuteeee!" Yang said just as a pillow hit her face.
"Shut up! I didn't get to take my friends with me to school. It's weird not knowing anyone here," Ruby said angrily.
"I'm hurt."
The two looked around to see Diamond in his pyjamas, which was a pair of shorts and a T-Shirt.
"Oh! I'm sorry Diamond," Ruby said embarrassed, her cheeks turning red.
Diamond laughed. "It's fine."
"And what about Jaune? There 200% increase!" Yang said.
"I'm pretty sure Weiss counts as a negative friend. Back to zero."
"Actually it would be back to 100 since 2-1 equals 1," Diamond muttered quietly. He got a pillow to his face.
"Look, it's already been one day. Trust me, you've got friends all around you. You just haven't met them yet," Yang said, comfortingly.
Suddenly, a light came on.
The two girls and the boy looked.
Blake Belladonna was reading a random book. She was wearing a kimono, and the light was actually a torch.
"That girl…"
"Ya know her?" Yang asked.
"She saw what happened this morning, but left before we could say anything," Diamond said with a shrug.
"Well, now's your chance!"
Yang dragged Ruby over to Blake, with Diamond following, laughing at her behaviour.
Ruby turned away from Blake the second she got there.
Yang called out in a singsong voice.
"I believe you two know each other?"
Blake looked at Ruby.
"Aren't you the girl that exploded?"
"Uhh yeah! My name's Ruby," the young girl said with her hand. When she didn't shake her hand, she just retracted her arm and said: "But you can just call me Crater…" she stopped.
"Just call her Ruby." Diamond quickly said. Ruby looked at Diamond with a look of thanks.
"...Okay."
"What are you doing?" Yang whisper-yelled at Ruby.
"I don't know, help me!" Ruby whisper-yelled back.
Yang put on a smile and was just about to say something when Diamond saw the title of the book.
Pokemon: Battle for Space-Time.
"What's the book about?" Diamond asked with a hint of fear in his voice.
"It's about a kid with an ape, bird, a.. landshark I guess, a,"
Diamond tuned out the other words.
He also didn't hear Ruby talk about her dreams.
He finally snapped out of reality when he heard Ruby and Yang fighting over something.
"Well, Ruby, Yang and," Blake looked over to Diamond.
"Did I,?"
"What is wrong with you?!"
The three girls and boy looked over to an obviously angry Weiss Schnee practically yelling, "Don't you realize some of us are trying to sleep!?"
"Froslass, your yelling louder than us," Diamond deadpanned.
"Why, you," she started, but then she looked at Ruby and Yang as they started arguing.
"Can you be quiet!" Diamond almost yelled. Everybody in their little group looked towards Diamond.
"For one, shockingly, Weiss is right. Second, I hate this stress, and third, it isn't that hard to ignore each other and hit the sack."
"Why should I listen to you?!" Yang and Weiss both yelled at the same time.
"Did you save the world when you were 10 years old?" Diamond said without thinking. His eyebrows shot up because of what he accidentally said. Ruby and Yang gawked. Weiss rolled her eyes and walked off, thinking that it was a joke. And Blake raised an eyebrow. Not because she was skeptical. But the book she was reading was based on the protagonist that did the same thing.
…
Diamond walking through the locker room when he noticed a girl hounding over this guy with a pink streak and some green clothing.
The girl was talking so fast that Diamond couldn't hear her, and the boy didn't talk much, so he found his locker. He grabbed his backpack and went to find Ruby and Yang.
"So! You seem awfully chipper this morning," Yang commented.
"Yup! No more awkward small talk or 'getting to know you' stuff." She said while pulling out the Crescent Rose and stroking it. "Today, I get to let my sweetheart do the talking."
"I'm not sure if that's adorable or disturbing."
The sisters looked to see Diamond walking up to the two.
"Oh, good morning!" Ruby said with cheer.
"Good morning to you too." Diamond looked at Yang. "Both of you."
"Well, anyways…" Yang started. She looked back at Ruby.
"Remember that you're not the only one going through initiation. If you want to grow up, you're going to have to meet new people and learn to work together."
"Definitely," Diamond thought.
"Ugh, you sound like dad," Ruby said as she put the Crescent Rose back into her locker.
"Okay, first of all, what does meeting people have to do with fighting, and I don't need people to help me grow up! I drink milk."
Diamond burst laughing.
"What?" Ruby yelled.
He snickered again. "I drink milk."
"How is that funny?" Ruby said.
"Nothing, nothing. Yang, go ahead talking."
After holding back her own laughs, (Diamond's laugh was infectious) Yang took a breath and asked, "But what about when we form teams?"
Suddenly, Ruby became nervous.
"Uhm, I don't know, I-I'll just be on your team or Diamond's."
"Maybe you should try being in someone else's team," Yang said while playing with her hair.
"Dearest sister Yang, are you implying that you do not wish to be on the same team as me?!"
Diamond snickered.
"Great sister you got there, Ruby. First, she ditches you so you can explode. Then she doesn't want to be on the same team as you."
After the sisters both glared daggers at Diamond's soul, (which does absolutely nothing) Yang answered her sister.
"No! Of course not, I just thought that you break out of your shell!"
"What the?! I don't need to break out of my shell. That's absolutely,"
"Ridiculous!" Jaune said. Diamond watched him, then looked at the girls, and followed Jaune to help him.
"So, Pyrrha have you given any thought on whose team you would like to be on?" Diamond heard. He looked to his right. "I'm sure everyone must be eager to unite with such a strong well-known individual such as yourself.
"What's this I see?" Diamond said with mock surprise. The two girls looked at him. Weiss instantly looked frustrated.
"Weiss Schnee being nice to somebody? I don't believe my eyes.
After completely ignoring Weiss's death threats and yelling, Diamond turned to 'Pyrrha'.
"So, who are you?"
"What! You don't know who Pyrrha is?!"
Diamond mock thought about it, and said: "Nope."
"This is Pyrrha," Weiss said.
"Hello!" Pyrrha said with a wave.
"Sup," Diamond said nonchalantly.
"Pyrrha graduated at the top of her class at Sanctum," Weiss continued.
"Yeah," Diamond said in a bored tone while checking backpack.
Weiss got a little more annoyed.
"She's won the Mistral Regional Tournament 4 years in a row. A new record!"
"I know people who've held their regional record for thrice that amount of time," Diamond deadpanned while playing a game on his PokeTch. Weiss got angrier. Pyrrha raised an eyebrow.
"She's on the front of every Pumpkin Pete's Marshmallow Flakes box!" she yelled while flailing her arms around.
"Wow. Cool!" Diamond said, not as bored anymore.
"Yeah… It was pretty cool. Sadly, the cereal isn't good for you though.
"So, after hearing all that, do you still think you're in a position not to no her.
"No."
Weiss looked like she was about to explode.
"Arceus, cool your jets, Froslass," he mocked while walking away.
"Pyrrha, a little help please?" Weiss asked.
Pyrrha pulled out her spear and threw it at Diamond.
Diamond barely noticed the spear in time before he dodged it.
"What the hell was that for?!" he asked angrily. Suddenly Pyrrha felt like she didn't want to be here anymore.
"I-I'm sorry," she said.
Then a violent rattling came from his waist.
Infernape popped out of nowhere, flicked on the speaker on Diamonds belt and glared angrily towards.
"SORRY MY AS-,"
"May all first-year students report to the Beacon Cliff for Initiation. Again, all first-year students report for to Beacon Cliff immediately." the PA said.
Diamond sighed.
"Infernape," he said while pulling the Pokeball of his waist.
The ape glared at the Pyrrha. "Don't think this is over."
He was zapped into his ball. Diamond put it on his waist and looked at the girls.
"I would tell you what was that about except A: I don't like you, mostly you," he said pointing at Weiss, "and B: we gotta go." He then left. Weiss was trying to process what was going on with a confused stare at Jaune. The natural blonde noticed and waved causing Weiss to look away in disgust. Pyrrha just felt terribly ashamed.
…
"For years, you have trained to become warriors. And today, your skills will be evaluated in the Emerald Forest," Ozpin said.
"Now, I'm sure many of you have heard rumours about the assignment of teams. Well, allow us to put an end to your confusion. Each of you will be given teammates… today," continued Glynda.
Diamond heard a whimper from Ruby.
"These teammates will be with you for the rest of your time here at Beacon. So it is in your best interest to be paired with someone with whom you can work well," Ozpin said in his monologue.
Diamond heard Ruby's whimper and waited for the catch.
"That being said, the first person you make eye contact with will be your partner for the next 4 years.
Diamond swore he heard Ruby die inside when she yelled "WHAT?!"
The girl that wouldn't stop talking said: "See? I told you," to the quiet boy.
"After you've partnered up, make your way to the northern end of the
forest. You will meet opposition along the way. Do not hesitate to destroy everything in your path... or you will die," Ozpin continued.
Jaune nervously laughed then gulped.
"You will be monitored and graded through the duration of your initiation, but our instructors will not intervene. You will find an abandoned temple at the end of the path containing several relics. Each pair must choose one and return to the top of the cliff. We will regard that item, as well as your standing, and grade you appropriately. Are there any questions?" Ozpin finished.
"There's an odd amount of people here," Diamond stated to Ozpin.
"There will be a person without a pair. I would not recommend being that person, though," Ozpin replied.
"The initiation starts now, right?" Diamond asked after.
"Well, yes," Ozpin answered with an amused tone.
"Okay. see ya!"
He jumped off the edge of the cliff.
"Is he… okay?" Ruby asked a few seconds later, with worry in her voice.
Just as she finished that sentence, Diamond popped out from somewhere under the cliff on Staraptor. While posing. The student's jaws had dropped. Glynda face-palmed at his childish antics. Ozpin simply looked amused.
"See ya! Go Staraptor, GO!" He yelled rocketing off, leaving them behind.
After another few seconds, Ozpin looked back to the students and asked,
"Any more questions?"
"Yeah, um, sir?" Jaune asked with his hand up.
"Good! Now take your positions."
Everybody got ready, but they were still a little confused on how a guy who has a bird the size of your regular piano.
"Uh, sir? I've got, um... a question. So, this landing strategy thing... Uh, wha-what is it? You're, like, dropping us off or something?" Jaune asked as Weiss catapulted off into the woods
"No. You will be falling," Ozpin deadpanned.
"So… did you, like, hand out parachutes or something?" Jaune asked as more people were launched off.
"No. You will be using your own landing strategy," Ozpin replied with a stare.
Yang put on some shades, winked at Ruby, and was sent flying. Ruby smirked and flew off herself.
"What exactly is a landing strategyeeee!?" Jaune yelled/asked. The reason why there's and 'eeeeeeee' is because he was the last one to launch off the cliff.
Ozpin sipped on his coffee.
THX guys! I decided what will Diamond's last Pokemon will be. Just know that you get it in near the Valley Windworks, I think.
