Agony POV
We were taken back to Beacon and is inside Prof. Ozpin's office right now as Prof. Glynda immediately left to wash herself. "Quite a ruckus that was" Ozpin said "Well, those thugs would annoy me as well. I'll just have it ruled out as self-defense". We all sighed in relief and thanked him greatly "But! You three would still have punishment" we all then breathed out of disappointment "Community service for the following weekend" we just accepted it and moved on. "Now then! Before you four are dismissed, it seems fate is an amazing strategist to think she was able to gather the four of you here this quickly. What a convenient plot and coincidence, it's like as if someone is writing it all down in paper and changing it according to his will" he sipped from his coffee mug. "Agony, remember when I told you about your team?" he said, signaling to them.
I put all the pieces together and face-palm. "NO, WAY" I said "Really?".
"Yes, REALLY" he said. The others also realize what's happening. "They have no teams to join as well despite having such great talent so instead of wasting them, I had them pending, waiting for someone to help them be a team for Beacon" he gestured for the four of us. "Please, meet your team mates starting from now on and congratulations in being an official team in Beacon. From now on you shall be known as team ARCN(Arcana) lead by the one and only, Agony Adris"
We all looked at each other. Chrome and the guy jumped up and down in joy while the blonde smiled and composed herself but small tears of joy can be seen about to roll down her face. "Awww come on guys! GROUP HUG!" the guy screamed and I just jumped in as well and hugged all of them.
"Now then, you may be dismissed. Start introducing yourselves. Agony, your room has been renovated to accommodate all three of them okay" he said "Goodnight team ARCN"
We all walked out of the room and began chatting about the brawl that caused our meeting. Apparently, it all started when Chrome tripped and spilled the food of the thugs. "Again, I'm sorry for starting the brawl".
"No problem, it did get us all together right?" I replied to her "Plus, it was quite fun"
"Indeed it was. I feel quite great being able to move my arm and swing my sword around" the blonde said.
"Yeah…" the guy added.
"I know we just met by I'm telling you now, I don't mind having you guys as my team mates" I told them.
"Same here, I'd gladly be happy to work with those I've fought with before" the blonde said.
"We were awesome out there! Imagine if we get to train more together! We'll be unstoppable" we all smiled at the idea of the guy. "By the way, I'm Reid Maroon, you guys should know, I'll be the next great huntsman!" he proclaimed.
"Napel Pendragon" the blonde said "It's a pleasure to meet you all" she said with a smirk for competition.
"I'm Chrome Logam, it's nice to meet you!" she introduced herself.
"And I'm Agony Adris, the leader of the future best team of REMNANT!" I said to them which earned me a bunch of raised brows. "What? Everyone needs to have a goal"
"I'll be the greatest huntress of our time" Napel said, resolving herself.
"I'll be true genuine huntress and fight to protect!" Chrome said with a surprising resolution which we enjoyed.
We all talked some more until a sudden rumble of my stomach and Reid's echoed against the hall way and stopped our chat.
"Uuummm… that was him…" Reid pointed the finger at me and I just glared lightly at him.
"I haven't had my dinner yet because of that brawl" explained.
"I'm sorry about that" Chrome said gloomily until her own stomach rumbled. "HMPH! She yelped as her face slowly turned red from embarrassment.
"It's fine, ahahahahaha!" I laughed at her blush in the face "Come on! Let's go out and have ourselves some delicious food"
"NO! I'm afraid the rules about a student's curfew shall prevent us on having our meal" Napel said, now wanting our group to be the most behave. This at first seemed believable but the long and loud growl of Napel's own stomach betrays her.
Seeing this as an amazing opportunity, I took it and played with it. "Yeah, you're right! We shouldn't eat anymore because of the curfew" I said with great sarcasm "We should just ignore the delicious burgers, savory pastas, heartwarming noodles, mouth-watering grills and heavenly desserts waiting for us out there!" I pointed out to the busy streets of Vale. "Why should we even think about those delicacies when we can just sit in our dorm room and practice fasting and meditation…" I joked at her and the three of them seems to be getting the point.
Napel's pointed finger slowly shook then broke down, letting it hang limply at her side. "You win…" she sighed in defeat. We all jumped in joy as we moved to get something to eat. Chrome and Reid took the lead, excited to finish the meal they started a while back while Napel and I hung back and talked with each other for awhile. "To think you're our leader…" she looked at me with half a smile "Why do I feel like you're the trouble making type and this would be one stressful year?"
"Well, it'd be boring if it wasn't" I told her "But come on, we just met and I'm telling you already, loosen up a little" I said.
She smirked and released her hair into the open air letting her shoulder length hair flow through the wind. "Better?" she said with a smile as her emerald eyes glistened in the moonlit night.
I blush at the beauty in front of me and smile myself. "Much better" I said. I spent the long night together with them, telling stories and laughing at Reid's jokes and Chrome's stories.
'Maybe it isn't so bad after all' I thought to myself as the night goes on. Eventually we got tired and got back to Beacon and took our rest.
Ruby POV
The morning started off pretty slow, considering it was a weekend, it was only natural for everyone to rise up later than usual. My team and I are just walking down the hall to get breakfast and start the day with smiles. Weiss seemed to be very slow in starting the morning, Blake didn't seem like she was affected at all, and my sister Yang was slowly getting livelier and livelier while I had a skip in my step since there were no classes at all to hinder my energy.
"By the way I forgot to mention last night" Blake suddenly spoke up as we entered the cafeteria "I saw Agony outside last night" this caught all of our attention.
"Don't tell me he's out doing his bounty hunter stuff again" Weiss complained. She still seems to be unable to forget the fact that he used to be a bounty hunter before being admitted to Beacon. Maybe the fact that he's under an uncertificated job made her uneasy and to add to it, he's probably stronger than any of us. "We have to reprimand him if he does those things again"
"No he wasn't" Blake said "He didn't even bring his weapons"
"Ooohhh… Then what was he doing out there? What did he do next?" I felt curious about this.
Blake seems to be slightly flustered all of a sudden "Oh! Uuuhhh… You know…" she seemed to be at a loss of words "We just uhhh… talked to each other" she avoided our gazes.
"What did you guys talk about?" Yang asked suddenly with her brows furrowed.
"Nothing! We just had a friendly conversation" Blake was very nervous as she answered.
"Isn't that an obvious lie" Weiss stated.
I laughed a little knowing well what Weiss meant "Ehehe, yeah… You're not exactly the easy to approach kind of person Blake…"
"Blllllaaaakkkkkeeeee… Are you hiding something from us?" Yang pressured her more, inching her face nearer.
"No! I would never-!" she tried to continue but our stares cut her off immediately.
"I'll make sure you won't be able to eat a single fish for a week if you won't tell us" Yang started as a threat.
"YOU WOULDN'T DARE!" Blake said with fear, knowing full well how to take advantage of her characteristics as a faunus.
"And I'll make sure you get to smell EVERY. FISH. COOKED" Yang added with a smirk.
"You fiend!" Blake retorted.
"Do we really need to go this far? I'm sure Blake will tell us if we keep on asking nicely" I tried to stop the two of them but Yang didn't seem to relent "Weiss, help me" I whispered to her.
"Oh no, this is getting kinda interesting" she wanted to amuse herself this morning. In a few cases, Weiss' did show hints of liking conflict.
"Really!? Uhhh…" I tried to think of another idea to stop the two.
"ALRIGHT I'LL TELL!" Blake said and told us the story as we took our sits and ate our breakfast.
Blake POV
"You have got…" Yang trailed on "…To be kidding me" she said as I finished my story with a deep sigh and faint blush most probably on my cheeks.
"I don't know…" I said all nervous "We just got caught up in the moment" I looked down, trying to hide my face as I feel heat rise up to them "But nothing happened between us other than that I swear!"
"Oh really? Why being so defensive then?" Weiss spoke; it's weird seeing her amused over this topic.
"I just don't want rumors to spread" I defended.
"No way, you like him don't you~" Ruby teased me to which my eyes widened when she said that.
"WHAT!? No I don't!" I denied their statements despite it feeling wrong.
"Oh really? Then why are your ears twitching?" when Weiss said so with a smug grin, I raised my two hands up and feel my ears move against them. I blush realizing that I unconsciously move them based on my emotions.
"Well, I wouldn't blame you" Yang said. I realize the way she's been acting around him has been weird and after piecing some of it together, I think I've figured it out.
"Yang, I don't have feelings for him"
"Why are you telling me this though?" Yang asked looking slightly nervous as well.
"Don't you have feelings for him?" I said, hoping they'll be able to forget my side.
"NO! Why does so many think so?" she asked.
"It is possible to have feelings for someone but not know it" I told her.
"But I don't!"
"You've been hanging around him a lot lately and you frequently ask things about him to us that we won't even know about!" Ruby complained.
"And that time in his room" Weiss said.
"I was just fulfilling the mission Ozpin gave us! And other stuff… But mostly Ozpin's mission!" Yang bragged.
"But you have been hanging around him a lot lately" Ruby teased.
"Because it's fun teasing him! He's not a bad guy we first thought he was, he's pretty exciting to be with" Yang told all of them. "Why are we even talking about this? I don't have feelings for him, end of story"
"Not yet~" Ruby added, seemingly happy about shipping the two of them together. "Of course, I'd also be cheering for you Blake!"
It seems she hasn't forgotten about my case like I hoped she would "Let's just let this go for now" and with that, the team ate our breakfast with a great jumpstart. The whole day went by quickly and before we knew it, night time has arrived. 'Wonder where Agony went, I haven't seen him all day…'
Just a fun fact about my characters
Agony is named after a negative emotion. His name would be explained later on but basically, it's a negative emotion which I hope most associates to BLACK
Reid is just RED added with an 'I'
Chrome is a bright metallic color bordering to WHITE
Napel is a tint of YELLOW.
I hope someone noticed what I did there.
