Chapter 9: School Time
It was now officially the first day of Beacon Academy. The first couple of classes rolled by, as well as lunch, and now it was the final class of the day. Professor Port's class. It wasn't a normal class like most, for most of the time, Port only talked about his past experiences as a Huntsman.
Suddenly, Team KRNJ came bursting into the classroom late and all four fell to the ground, mainly due to them running against each other. Port had to stop his story just to look at the boys. "Boys, you are 10 minutes late to my class. Explain yourselves." Standing up and dusting himself off, Jellal bowed his head to the teacher. "Forgive us. We got lost around the school."
"Ah. A fine young man with the right attitude of a real Huntsman. Please, go and sit down with your team.", Port said with a cheery voice. Jellal nodded and he and his teammates walked to their appropriate seats. "As I was saying, students. A true Huntsman must be honorable, dependable, strategic, well-educated, and wise." As he said these, Weiss took notice of both Ruby and Natsu goofing off instead of paying attention to what the teacher was saying.
"So, who among you believes themselves to be the embodiment of these traits?", he asked his students.
Weiss was the first to raise her hand, alongside Kratos. "I do, sir!", both said in unison. "Well then, let's find out!" Turning around, he looked at a large cage that was holding two creatures inside as they were trying to escape. Both Weiss and Kratos stepped forward, Weiss wielding her sword while Kratos just took a fighting stance.
"Go Kratos!", Rai and Natsu both cheered for him. Jellal kept quiet, but gave his leader a quick thumbs off. Kratos smiled at his teammates as he kept his stance.
"Gooo Weiss!", Yang cheered.
Blake held a small flag in her hand that said 'RWBY' on it. "Fight well!"
"Yeah! Represent Teeeeam RWBY!", Ruby cheered out loud. Weiss turned to look at her. "Ruby! I'm trying to focus!"
Soon, Port opened the cage with his double bladed axe and two Boarbatusks came squealing out and charged at the two students. Kratos was able to dodge his enemy while Weiss was trying her best to kill hers. Several times, Ruby yelled at her to aim for the belly, but Weiss became angry and yelled back at her to stay out of it.
In the end, Kratos was able to defeat his Boarbatusk by punching straight into its belly, killing it instantly. Soon after, Weiss was able to stab hers in the stomach with her rapier. Both have won. "Bravo! Bra-vo! It appears we are indeed in the presence of a true Huntsman and Huntress n training!", Port announced to the students.
"Woohoo! Nice one, Kratos!", Natsu and Rai both cheered in unison. Kratos simply smiled at the two before turning to Weiss, seeing her glare at her team leader. "I'm afraid that's all the time we have for today. Be sure to cover the assigned readings, and... stay vigilant! Class dismissed!"
Weiss then marched out of the classroom in anger as her team and Jaune watcher her. "Sheesh. What's with her?" The others were very confused as they all wondered the same thing.
Walking down the hallway, Weiss was stopped by both Natsu and Ruby, who wanted to talk to her about what just happened. "Weiss!" Weiss turned around to look at the two. "What?", she asked. "What's wrong with you? Why are you being-"
"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you?", Weiss interrupted angrily. "You're supposed to be a leader, and all you've been so far is a nuisance!" Ruby ened up scoffing. "What did I do?" Weiss became angrier. "That's just it. You've done nothing to earn your position! Back in the forest, you acted like a child, and you've only continued to do so!" Ruby was very confused as she heard her. "You need to calm down, Weiss.", Natsu said to her. Weiss turned to look at the Slayer. "And you need to butt out!", she said bluntly.
"Weiss, where is this coming from? What happened to all the talk about 'working together'? I thought you believed in acting as a team.", Ruby said, trying to talk some sense into her. She only looked at her with an upset look before crossing her arms and turning away. "Not a team led by you. I've studied and trained. And quite frankly, I deserve better. Ozpin made a mistake." She then started walking away.
Heartbroken by what she heard, Ruby stared at the ground and was close to tears but Natsu calmly placed a hand on her back to comfort her. "Ignore what she said. You'll be a great leader." Suddenly, Ozpin appeared behind the two, holding a cup of coffee in one hand and his cane in the other. "Hmm... Now that didn't seem to go very well." Ruby looked at the headmaster with a sad look. "Is she right? Did you make a mistake?" Ozpin simply looked at her. "That remains to be seen."
Walking outside, Weiss found Professor Port and Kratos chatting with each other about what happened in class. "You did an excellent job taking down that Grimm, my boy! You'll have no trouble at all with passing my class!" Kratos smiled and nodded to the older man. "Thank you, Professor."
Soon, Weiss came walking over to the two. "Professor Port!" Port and Kratos turned around to see her. "Ah, Miss Schnee! And to what do I owe this fine pleasure?", he asked her. Kratos had his arms crossed as he looked at the heiress. "I... I enjoyed your lecture!"
"Of course you did, child; you have the blood of a true Huntress in you.", he told her.
Weiss then smiled at him. "You really think so?"
"Most surely!", he stated. Kratos soon noticed that Weiss looked rather upset. "Is something wrong? You look upset."
Finally, Weiss spoke up. "Well... I-I think I should have been the leader of Team RWBY!"
Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter.
Believe me guys, I wanted to make this chapter longer, but my busy schedule here at school won't let me. But I promise you all that part 2 of this chapter will be posted soon. Don't lose faith in me yet!
RWBY Fact!
The Shopkeeper is most likely based on Nurse Joy from Pokemon. Why? Mainly because everywhere anyone goes in the entire series, the shopkeeper is seen as the owner of a lot of stores. It's become so popular that it's also featured in RWBY Chibi.
See you guys next time!~
