"No I don't think Ozpin should know." I told Gylph "But he needs to know. If other creatures from home are coming after us..." Glyph got started thinking aloud. He was right though,why come all the way here? For me?No. there's others all in the tower just like me. We were walking down the hall to the dorm room glyph floating right next to me invisible. As I turned the corner I saw Yang,Ruby,Weiss and Blake all standing around the room door right next to mine. They waved me over to them and I walked over to I walked Glyph was still rambling "shut up and hide".I told him "it's the girls" the last thing I heard from Glyph was a "ok-" before vanishing
"Hey Jake"! Ruby called "these dorms are pretty sweet huh?"
"Yeah I haven't been to mine yet though..." I replied to her "Oh... well hey when you want to hang out with us come by the library Blake said she wanted to go and study up for the first day" Everyone but Blake looked irradiated at the thought especially Yang. "Why even go to the library the day BEFORE school starts?" She started to say as they walked down the hall.
I walked into my room there was a window in the center of the room with 4 beds. One by each corner of the room.I had a bathroom as well. I closed my door and walked over to sit down on one of the beds. When I sat, Glyph appeared "Jake we cant avoid the fact the fallen are after us. No to mention Ozpin doesn't trust us much. We need to gain his trust and telling could help us." I looked away out my window. Glyph looked down."listen,I know you want to go home as much as me so I think-" I cut him off. "Why do I even need to go home? Everyone that I loved in that world is dead." Glyph was obviously mad."If we stay here Oryx will come for you! Do you want your problems to become this worlds problems?" I sighed "No I don't..." Glyph flew up to my face "Then we NEED to tell Ozpin". I looked at him " well tell him soon just give me some time to sit". I flew backwards,laying down in bed knowing today would be a annoying start to my new life
I got up to go to Ozpins office. As I walked I saw the same guy from the launch pads the other day cornering her looking like he was ready for a fight. up a girl with Rabbit ears?"they're called faunus" Glyph said "I think Blake is one to though i'm not sure.. I got a faint reading earlier". I walked up to the guy moving on her and tapped his shoulder " I think you should get moving".
With my helmet on I sounded more intimidating I could guy started to back up and said"whatever..." and walked away. I looked to the girl "Are you all right?" I asked.
"Yes" she responded " and thank you".
I started to walk away "wait"! she called whats your name"? I smiled "Its Jake, what about you"? She looked to the ground as If embarrassed"Its...Velvet". and with that we walked away from each other each with separate goals.
When I got to Ozpins office he greeted me in."whats seems to be the problem"? he asked and I explained what happened in the woods. He nodded "Your sure it was from your world?"
"yes" I said.
He looked at his desk thinking. "we watched the whole would explain how you knew its exact weakness". He got up out of his chair "I will see to it that we send patrols out to look for it in the meantime good luck on your fast day tomorrow". he said smiling as he walked me out of his office.
"lets hope we did the right thing" I said to Glyph. "Don't worry"Glyph said "we did."
Next stop the library I promised Glyph I would get him some books to learn the history of this world with so as I walked into the library I saw team RWBY and JNPR sitting next to each other at the same long table. "Well if it isn't team GRDN". Is saw Yang looking at me everyone else did as well as I sat at the edge of there table.
Jaune asked "Tell us, why call yourself team GRDN?"To be honest it was because of my old group. We called ourselves "The Garden Of Time". "an old team name" I said. Then Yangasked asked me another question "so do you always wear armor?" I had just realized no one hear had actually seen my face "Not always,but mostly". I said. I heard Glyph go "ohhhhhh that book her sister has,I want to read it. Get it for me Please". I looked over to ruby "Hey could I see that book when your done". Ruby looked at me " me just finish this part on weap-" Yang jumped into the conversation "She'll let you see it IF you take of your helmet". Everyone looked at me knowing I was beat. I looked to Yang and saw a grin of success spread across her face.I sighed "Whatever,I just I need the book.
As I took of my helmet everyone stared at me "what?" I asked. I was a human male,looked about eighteen with brown hair and a small scar acrossvthe bottom of my cheek."You'd have to have seen it tomorrow we have uniforms you know" I looked away not liking to be the center of attention and Ruby tossed me the book. I saw everyone grinning, knowing I was embarrassed " I hope your happy Glyph I feel humiliated". Glyph didn't say a word.I could tell he was holding in a laugh.
That night as I went to sleep I had a dream.I was back in Oryx's thrownworld. All of my old friends were lined up against a wall. Oryx was behind the wall. He laughed and said one sentence "Not even the greatest barriers can protect you". and the wall broke, and I woke up in the morning,and quickly ready for class,ignoring the dream.
My school uniform made me look human. I didn't like the feeling. I was a guardian. Not a normal teen. I walked into class. Grim studies. I could tell this was going to be... exciting. I saw I had Yang,Ruby, and Weiss in my class. Ruby and Yang waved and I waved .Port was a teacher who liked to tell stories. LONG stories. "And then the Grim I had thought was dead jumped at me"! just one of his long stories. Finally he asked something I could answer "Class who would like to fight this Grim as a example to the class"? I shot my hand up coincidentally so did Weiss.
" Ah a competition! I'll have you each fight a Grim the first to kill theirs go get suited up". I walked into the bathroom and said "Glyph suit me up". In a instant I was in full armor. I walked back into class. My last word hand cannon in my right hand and walked to the center of the room. I looked over to Weiss her weapon of choice was a sword that could change elements. "May the best person win". I said. "Oh they will". she replied. I brushed it off it was game time.
Two cages were brought into the room. Each with a boar probably had a better name but I didn't know."and...Start!" Both cages opened and the Grim charged at us. All I did was jump out of the way of its run and,from behind,shot it three times in the back it fell to the ground and for the finish I pulled out my Knife and did a quick stab its back to make sure it was down."Record time!"I heard say. I looked to my right to see Weiss...was having problems She drooped her weapon and it rolled to me I grabbed it and threw it to her. she grabed it out of the air and killed her Grim with ice spike being summoned out of the ground. "Well class we know who the winner is. Congratulations Jake"! The bell rang for our next I was leaving Weiss came up to me "You know you didn't have to help". I just looked at her and said"Its what I do". As I left the room I heard someone behind me say "Thank you."
As I was walking to my next class I saw Jaune getting bullied by that same creep from earlier.I came up to the picked up the guy and threw him to the got up and ran of murmuring "I'll get you." I looked down a Jaune "thanks"He said I looked to him."No problem,But I wont always be there to help" He nodded and walked of and I went of to my next class.
I kept my armor on for my next class because it was a arena fighting class with Miss Glynda Goodwitch as our teacher. We all sat down in the stand next to the gym/arena I saw a few familiar faces Ruby Pyrrah and Ren. "students in my class will learn combat" started" You will be pitted against each other to test your first person to drop into the red of their arua on the Bar above will lose". Aura I thought to myself its like my health and shields I think. "Now would anyone like to go first?" No one raised their hand except for one. Everyone turned to see Pyrrah raise her hand "Ah Miss,Nikos. Who would you like to fight?" Pyrrah turned to the class "I choose Jake".
Another fight in my first day? not the best way to start the year. turned to me "are you ok to fight her"? she asked "I guess" I said,stretching. Pyrrah smiled and walked down to the arena.
When I got down to the arena Pyrrah and I were on opposite sides of the arena "You Ready"? she called. "More then i'll ever be. I yelled back."And 3...2...1... BEGIN!" and Pyrrah ran at me with her shield and spear out. I quickly brought out my sword using electricity to power it. Our weapons collided. It was a back and forth for a few seconds and then I decided it was time for a grenade I jumped into the air and threw my seeking grenade at her. I chased her down until it hit her and did minimum damage. I heard "ohhhhs"and"awwws" in the crowd and someone said "what semblance is that?"Pyrrah ran at me knocking me backwards."shes good"Glyph said"She could be a guardian." "Not the time!" I yelled to Glyph. That shut him up. Pyrrah ran again at me,But our swords met again. We got a good couple hits on each other, but this time I had a idea.I pushed her back a few feet and summoned the power of the void into me and shot her with a giant Purple seeking ball of destruction similar to my knocked her to the ground.I looked at the board I just barley had a slim of yellow left on the board while she was in the reds.I won. I walked up to Pyrrah while she was on her knee and gave her my took it and got up "Good fight." I said. "To you as well" she smiled at me. "Know who's next?"Miss Goodwitch said Everyone shot up there hands
"What a crazy first day"I said to Glyph."yeah well...we did learn a lot." He said I just laughed allowed "That's all you got out off today?I haven't this much fun since..." I stopped mid sentence. "Since the old group from home." Glyph finished I nodded. I took of my armor and started to lay down on my bed. "I think this place is growing on us" Glyph said.I smiled I think it is to.
