Chapter 3
BEEEP! BEEEP! BEEEP! I heard my alarm go off, signaling the most dreaded day of the week, Monday, had started and I officially had my first day of classes after spending all of Sunday finding where exactly all my classes were. "Damn Monday's" I muttered out as I got off of my bed and shuffled over to the bathroom and began my morning routine. After getting ready for the day, I left my room and went to my first class.
I walked in and immediately felt a few people staring at me, some in fear and others in anger, but I ignored them at took a seat behind Team RWBY and waited for class to start. Soon I saw a husky looking man with a bushy moustache walk into the room just as the bell rang "Good Morning Class" he said as he surveyed the room "Ah…I see we have a new student…Mr. Smith was it?" he asked "Yes, sir" I answered as he simply nodded at me "Come and introduce yourself" he said, making me get out of my seat and walk to the front "I'm Alex and…uh…I'm a weapon's builder, I guess" I said awkwardly as I tried not to look at anyone "Alright well, I hope you create magnificent weapons for Huntsmen and Huntresses" he said as I went back to my seat and he started his lesson "Today class, I will share another one of my magnificent stories to you all in hopes that they will inspire you" the teacher said as he cleared his throat but at this point, I blocked him out not really caring to hear it.
After what felt like an eternity, I finally heard the bell ring, signaling that class was over although it appeared that the teacher, who I found out was Mr. Port, was in the middle of his story. Once I had my stuff collected, I started for the door only to be stopped and surrounded by the big guy and his team that was bullying the cute bunny girl a couple of days ago "Since you're new and all, I came to give you a chance to redeem yourself after interrupting me spending time with my toy the other day" he said 'Oh Oum, what the hell does he want?' I thought to myself as I raised an eyebrow at him. "Apologize for interrupting me and maybe I'll consider letting you join me and my group here" he said, causing me to look at him and simply shove past him and leave without saying anything.
The rest of the day went by without anything interesting happening, which for a Combat School you wouldn't think would be the case, and finally classes were over. Quickly, I started for my room but I was stopped by Ruby "Hey Alex, do you wanna hang out?" she asked "Sure, at least this day won't be completely boring" I replied as she turned and we started to walk down the hall. After some twists, turns, and dead ends, we made it to Ruby's room "Do you get lost often?" I ask her after sitting my stuff down "No…maybe…so?!" Ruby exclaimed as she started to blush, making me laugh. "Anyway, wanna see something?" she asked me as her blush started to fade as she turned to get something out of her drawer, getting an idea I got out of my chair and silently walked over to Ruby and wrapped my arms around her small waist and whispered "Depends on what it is, sweetheart" in a low, husky voice causing the young girl to immediately freak out and spin out of my light grip and jump back onto her dresser with a blush spread across her cheeks and the bridge of her nose.
"W-What?" Ruby stammered out as her silver eyes continued to analyze me with shock still the only expression on her face. "I was kidding, Rubes" I said, causing her to calm down a little bit as she got what she was looking for from the drawer, finally grabbing it she handed it to me and I noticed that it was a sketch pad with weapon designs sketched in it. "Did you draw these?" I asked the black/red haired girl, making her nod shyly "What do you think?" she asked nervously as she looked down at her feet, still flipping through the sketch pad I noticed that some of the weapons drawn in here had the potential to be built and function at very high capacities if you have all of the parts and you teach the right person how to use them "These are all…really well thought out" I said as I looked at Ruby. "Why'd you show me this though, Rubes?" I asked curiously as I handed the sketch pad to her "Well…I thought that since you were able to forge two incredibly strong weapons, I thought that you might be able to teach me to forge so that I can build more durable weapons" she stated as she looked away in shame and I started to laugh "Rubes, I'll help you but you don't have to be nervous to ask me I mean we're friends aren't we?" I stated as she looked at me and smiled.
After leaving her room, I went back to my room, studied, showered, and went to sleep but my instincts kicked in just as I hoped off of my bed and looked around to notice that my window was open. I immediately brought my guard up and moved cautiously to the window and after closing it, I rolled out of the way of a black arrow that was aimed at my head. I quickly looked around to find where the arrow had come from and I was soon met with piercing gold eyes that reminded me of a dying fire "Hello…V" a voice said as the eyes slowly drew closer until I could see the slender form of a woman with a mask, form fitting cat suit that showed off her figure, and long black hair "Who the hell are you?" I asked as I bared my teeth and took a defensive stance.
"Someone you'll soon find to be a reliable ally" she said with a hint of a seductive tone in her voice as she smirked evilly at me.
Well…what does this mean for our guy and I'm sure all of you know who the woman is but what does she want with Alex and why does she seem to know who he is…all of these questions will be answered soon but until then…stay tuned readers!
