Chapter 3: Beacon Academy
The airship soon arrived at the the landing dock of the academy. The blonde hair man in armor, along with Natsu, Kratos, and Rai, ran to a couple of nearby trash cans and started vomiting. In the meantime, Ruby, Yang and Jellal stepped off the airship and took sight of the school, becoming amazed at how huge it was.
"The view from Vale's got nothing on this.", Yang stated as she crossed her arms and smiled. "You've got that right.", Jellal agreed with her. Suddenly, as a student walked by, Ruby's eyes shined with excitement and started fangirling, causing Yang and Jellal to both stare at her in confusion.
"Sis! That kid's got a collapsible staff!" She then clung onto her sister's arm and spotted another student, who walked by while holding a sword. "And she's got a fire sword!" Ruby attempted to go after her, but Yang grabbed her by her hood and pulled her back. "Ow, ow!"
"Easy there, little sister.", Yang told her. "They're just weapons." Ruby looked at her while standing next to Jellal. "Just weapons? They're an extension of ourselves! They're a part of us! They're so cool!"
Yang kept smiling. "Well, why can't you swoon over your own weapon?Aren't you happy with it?" That was when Ruby took out Crescent Rose and had it shift to its scythe mode, nearly hitting Jellal. Luckily, he managed to dodge the blade with ease. "Of course I'm happy with Crescent Rose. I just really like seeing new ones. It's like meeting new people, but better..."
Yang kept her smile as she grabbed Ruby's hood and pulled it over her head. "Ruby, come on. Why don't you go try and make some friends of your own?" Jellal nodded in agreement to what Yang just said as he crossed his arms. "That seems like a great idea. Always good to make friends." Ruby then pulled down her hood. "Well, why would I need friends when I have you guys?" Suddenly, a few people appeared behind Yang. "Well, actually my friends are here now! Gotta go catch up! Okay! See ya! Bye!" She then sped away passed the two, causing Ruby to spin around and become dizzy.
"Wait! Where are you going?!", Ruby exclaimed. "Aren't we supposed to go to our dorms?! Where are our dorms?! Do we have dorms?!" As she started falling, Jellal attempted to catch her, but ended up missing. Ruby fell onto a cart full of white suitcases and a girl with white hair that was tied in a ponytail and wearing a white dress with white boots stared down at her. "What are you doing?!"
Ruby sat up and started up at the girl with Jellal staring at her too. "Sorry..." The white-haired girl looked at her angrily and pointed at her. "Sorry? Do you have any idea of the damage you could've cause?!" Jellal looked down at the suitcases and rose an eyebrow before looking at her again. "They're just suitcases." The girl then looked at him and was even more angry. "Just suitcases?! Give me that!" She quickly snatched one of the suitcases from Ruby, who had picked it up a second ago. She then opened it to reveal jars or Dust in different colors. "This is Dust! Mined and purified from the Schnee Quarry!" That was when Ruby became confused. "Uhhh..."
"What are you, brain dead?", the girl asked, picking up a jar with Red Dust. "Dust! Fire! Water! Lightning! Energy!" While saying this, she had shaken the jar and made some of it spray out and into Ruby's face. It looked as though she was about to sneeze. "Are you even listening to me? Is any of this sinking in? What do you have to say for yourself?!" That's when it happened. And Jellal saw it. He quickly ducked down and Ruby let out a loud sneeze, causing the Dust in the air around them to explode into the other girl. The jar that was in the girl's hand ended up flying in the air and landed next to a black-haired girl with a bow who was reading a book.
She picked up the jar while reading her book before looking at it and turning to look at the commotion between the three other people. "Unbelievable! This is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about!" Jellal quickly stood up and turned to the shouting girl. "Calm down. It was an accident. Ruby didn't mean to." The girl looked at him again with an angry expression. "This doesn't concern you!" Ruby started poking her index fingers together while looking very sad. "I'm really, really sorry."
The white-haired girl then scoffed. "You complete dolt! What are you even doing here?! Aren't you a little young to be attending Beacon?" Ruby then looked upset. "Well, I..." She then looked at Jellal. "And what about you? Aren't you a little old to be attending as well?" Jellal just seemed to ignore her at that moment. "This isn't your ordinary combat school. It's not just sparring and practice, you know." She then crossed her arms. "We're here to fight monsters. So, watch where you're going!"
Ruby was now even more upset. "Hey, I said I was sorry, Princess!" Soon, the black-haired girl came walking over to the trio. "It's heiress, actually." She was still holding the same Dust jar in her hand. "Weiss Schnee. Heiress to the Schnee Dust Company. One of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world." Jellal became surprised when he heard this from the girl, whose name was Blake. Weiss looked impressed and smiled. "Finally, some recognition."
Blake then looked straight at Weiss with a calm and blunt look. "The same company infamous for its controversial labor forces and questionable business partners." Weiss then became angry and both Jellal and Ruby were trying their best not to laugh. "What-How dare-The nerve of-!" She then snatched the jar out of her hand before marching away angrily while some men came by and picked up her luggage. "I promise I'll make this up to you!", Ruby shouted to her. She then sighed. "I guess we're not the only ones having a rough first day." Jellal patted her shoulder with his hand. "It'll get better."
Ruby smiled at him before turning around. "So what's-" By then it was too late. Blake had started walking away from the two, causing Ruby to fall on her knees and lay down on the ground. "Welcome to Beacon..." Soon, the same blonde guy from the airship approached her and offered her his hand. "Hey. I'm Jaune." She took his hand and stood up from the ground. "Ruby.", she replied, suddenly snickering. "Aren't you the guy who threw up on the ship?"
Meanwhile, Kratos, Rai, and Natsu had found themselves in the school's library, having walked around the academy after finishing emptying their stomachs. "This place is huge!", Natsu exclaimed, which earned him a loud 'Ssshhhh" The three started looking around before deciding to split up and find books for themselves. Kratos walked over to a shelf that had books on the world of Remnant and picked one up. Reading it, he found the information in it quite helpful. "Interesting..."
While he was reading, Blake had walked over and accidentally bumped his shoulder while reaching for a book. "Sorry.", he said to her. "It's okay.", Blake replied. Blake was trying to grab said book, but couldn't reach, so Kratos grabbed it for her. "Thanks." Kratos nodded with a smile. "You're welcome." She then started walking away as he turned around to read his book again. "Wonder who she is..." He was then interrupted by Rai shouting at Natsu. "Natsu! Don't burn that book!" Chuckling, Kratos put the book away and walked over to the two Dragon Slayers.
And there you have it! Hope you liked it :3
RWBY Fact! *shoots off fireworks*
