Waiting in the auditorium for Ruby, Natsu was starting to feel uncomfortable. Due to the amount of time it took to both test into and prepare for Beacon, he hadn't gotten the chance to sneak off into the woods or to Junior's bar in several weeks, and now his dragon instincts to fight, along with his fire aspect enhanced lust was starting to get to him. Damn it, hurry up and get this over with already. I'm losing it!
His inner complaining was broken when his older sister called out to his little one, "Ruby over here! We saved you a spot!"
Looking toward the door, Natsu saw Ruby saying goodbye to the blond boy he remembered from the airship, 'He better not be thinking about making a move on her…' Interestingly enough, it was not his lust that influenced this thought, but his inner dragon along with his instincts as an older brother. Dragons may not be monogamous, but they were very protective of what they saw as theirs.
"So, how's your first day going little sister?" Yang asked Ruby as she came up to them.
"You mean sense you ditched me and I exploded?"
"Yeash, meltdown already?" Yang asked.
"She means it literally Yang." Natsu told her.
"How'd you know that?" Ruby asked him.
"Heard it while we walking away." He stated matter of factly.
"AND YOU DIDN'T COME TO HELP ME!?"
"Oh please. You have an active Aura and it wasn't that big of an explosion, it's not like you would have been hurt."
"That's not the point!" She yelled.
Natsu just shrugged and was about to retort when he was interrupted, "You!" a bossy voice exclaimed. Turning to face its source Natsu saw a short, petite girl with white hair, wearing a white dress, white polo jacket and light blue eyes. She was defiantly very pretty, but he'd seen better. "You're lucky we weren't blown off the side of the cliff" the girl angrily told Ruby.
"Oh my god you really exploded." Yang said in a disbelieving voice.
"Didn't I just say that?" Natsu asked. He was ignored.
"It was an accident!" Ruby told her sister before turning to the other girl again, "It was an accident!" The girl thrust a pamphlet into her face in response. "What's this?" Ruby asked.
"The Schnee Dust Company is not responsible for any injuries or damages sustained while operating a Schnee Dust Company product. While not mandatory the Company encourages their customers to read and familiarize themselves with this easy to remember packet for standard Dust use and safety in the field." The girl said, her voice seeming to become squeakier for the second half.
"Huh?"
"You really want to start making it up to me?" The white haired girl asked.
"Absolutely." Ruby told her.
"Read this and never talk to me again." The girl said shoving the pamphlet into Ruby's hands in a huff.
Here Yang spoke up, "Look, it looks like you guys just got off on the wrong foot." She told the girl "Why don't you two start over and try to be friends OK?"
"Yeah!" Ruby said, "Great idea sis. Hello Weiss, I'm Ruby. Want to hang out? We can go shopping for school supplies." She said cheerfully.
"Yeah," the now named Weiss said in an obviously sarcastic tone, "and we can do our nails and talk about cute boys, like pinky here." She said pointing her thumb at Natsu.
The boy in question raised his eyebrow, "Wow, trying to get a girl to talk about her brother like that? Kinky." He was only partially joking.
"Wait- brother!? No, I didn't mean it like that!" Weiss denied embarrassed, she didn't know the two were related. She was just…
"He-hem," a new voice came over the speakers. Headmaster Ozpin had taken the stage. "I'll, keep this brief." He said, "You have traveled here today in search of knowledge, to hone your craft and acquire new skills, and when you finish you plan to dedicate your lives to the protection of the people. But as I look among you today, I see nothing but wasted energy. Needing purpose and direction." Here Natsu frowned, he knew exactly what his direction was- kill Acnologia and live a full life with plenty of fighting, adventures, and sex. Simple. Still, Ozpin continued on, "You assume knowledge will free you of this, but you will find that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step." With that the man's speech was over and he walked off the stage, his second in command Professor Goodwitch taking his place.
"You will all gather in the ballroom tonight" she told them. Wait, what? "Tomorrow your initiation begins, be ready. You are dismissed."
"It's like a biiiig slumber party!" Yang exclaimed as she flopped down onto her sleep mat beside her little sister and brother.
"I don't think dad would approve of all the boys though." Ruby told her as she wrote in a small notebook in front of her.
"I know I do" Yang purred starring at the teens without a shirt and flexing their muscles while looking in her direction.
"They try anything and I'm burning their nuts off" Natsu growled out. Just because he could understand the attraction the other boys felt toward his twin didn't mean he would let them act on it. "What'chya writing anyway Ruby?" He asked his little sister.
"Just a letter to the guys back at Signal" she told them.
"Aww, that's sooo cuuute!" Yang teased her earning a pillow to the face.
"Shut up," Ruby whined, "I didn't get to bring all my friends to school with me. It's weird not knowing anyone here."
"What about that Jaune guy you told us about?" Natsu asked her. "He seems like a nice guy." Plus, I doubt he'll try to get into a relationship with you. If he did, I'd need a place to hide a body. These thoughts came both from his increased lust, and being an older brother.
"I'm pretty sure Weiss counts as a negative friend. Back to zero." Ruby said depressingly.
"There's no such thing as a negative friend. You just made one friend and one enemy!" This earned Yang a dog shaped pillow to the face.
"She's right you know," Natus told Ruby, "you shouldn't let the hate someone shows you overshadow the love of everyone else."
Ruby looked at her brother and frowned, "What is it with you lately? You sound like a philosopher." Her brother was almost never like this, usually he was a bit more like Yang, so whenever he got like he was now she always thought something was wrong.
She wasn't really wrong about that either. It had been nearly two weeks sense Natsu had fought or had sex and his inner dragon, his burning soul was calling for him to do one or the other. Natus loved Igneel, he really did, but damn if him claiming him as his heir wasn't a pain to deal with, whenever he went too long without satisfying his urges he had to really tie himself down to the point he started acting strangely or else he would do something he'd regret. 'Maybe after initiation I can sneak into Vail to visit the Malachite twins (sorry I can't remember their names)?' "Nothing's wrong Ruby, just a little anxious about tomorrow."
"If you say so…" Ruby said, doubt clear in her voice. Before she could say anything more however, she caught sight of something over his shoulder, "That girl…"
"Who?" Yang asked.
"The one in the bow, she's the one who told off Weiss after I blew up."
Looking over his shoulder, Natsu saw the girl his sister was talking about. She had wavy black hair topped with a bow that looked like cat ears, yellow eyes, skin that was slightly pale and wearing only a short black yukata as her pajamas, she was one of the most beautiful women he had seen in his new life, even surpassing several girls from his old one. 'Why, oh why, does this have to happen now? Why not tomorrow when I'm not two steps away from trying to start a freaking orgy in the middle of the ballroom?' Not only were both of his sisters there, but now another beautiful girl, along with all the other women packed into the room, it was a good thing Natsu had gained as much control as he had or he would probably be acting like a dog in heat at that point.
"Well let's go talk to her then!" Yang cheered. 'Noooo, let's not.' Natsu thought.
Before he or Ruby could voice any form of objection, Yang had grabbed their arms and began to drag them over to the dark haired beauty. "Helloooo there! I believe you two may know each other?" She cheerfully proclaimed, shoving Ruby forward slightly.
"Aren't you that girl that exploded?" She asked.
"Yeah, that's me." Ruby told the girl. "But you can just call me Crater… actually you can just call me Ruby."
"Okay…"
"What are you doing?" Yang asked her sister.
"I don't know, help me."
"Sooo, what's your name?" Yang asked the girl.
"*Sigh* Blake." She told them.
"I like your bow" Yang tried, "it goes great with your… Pajamas!"
"Riiight…" Blake did not seemed amused.
His sisters looked at eachother, looking slightly uncomfortable. "Er, nice night don't you think?" It seemed Yang didn't know when to give up. You'd think that trying to talk to me when I'm reading would make her learn, but no. *Sigh*… Wait a minute, what's that smell… is that? Cat? Looking at Blake again Natsu noticed her bow twitch slightly, most likely out of irritation. Ohhh, she's a cat Faunus, that explains it.
"Yes," Blake said oblivious to the fact that her secret had just been discovered, "It's lovely. Almost as lovely as this book." She told them while they just continued to stare, "Which I will continue to read," Still no movement on his sister's part, "As soon as you leave." Take the hint Yang.
It seemed that someone was listening to him because now Yang said, "Yeah, this girls a lost cause."
But it seemed Ruby didn't get the memo, "What's it about?"
"Huh?"
"Your book, what's it about?"
"Oh, it's about a man with two souls, fighting for control of his body." Blake explained. Wait, does this world have 'Dr. Jackle and Mister Hyde?'
"Well that's… nice." Yang spoke.
"I love books," Ruby told Blake, "Yang used to read to me all the time, and Natsu would make up the best stories, and there some of the reasons I want to be a huntress."
"And why's that?" Blake asked, "Hoping you'll live happily ever after?"
"I'm hoping we all will," Ruby told her, " When I was little I wanted to be just like the people in those stories, someone who fought for what was right, and protected those who couldn't protect themselves."
"That's very ambitious for a child." Blake told her, "Unfortunately real life is not a Fairy Tale…" Says who? Natsu thought, 'I'm a reborn Dragon Slayer, demon, Dragon Prince from a different dimension, was part of a group CALLED Fairy Tail, controls fire like it's part of my body and have been tasked with killing an evil Dragon King of Apocalypse. If that doesn't sound like a freakin' Fairy Tale then I don't know what does. Granted no one other than him knew this at the time, but still.
"Well that's why we're here," Ruby continued on, "to make it better." Well said Rubes.
"Aww, I'm so proud of my baby sister!" Yang exclaimed picking Ruby up.
"Yang! Cut it out!" And now the teasing hug had turned into a small brawl complete with dust cloud.
Seeing his sisters occupied, Natsu stepped forward and kneeled in front of Blake, "You know, you shouldn't hide who you are" he told her, causing he eyes to widen in fear, "All it will lead to pain later on."
"I'll… keep that in mind. But how did you know?"
"Just because I'm not a Faunus doesn't mean I don't have a good nose. You can try to hide it, but cats have a very distinct scent to those who know it, and I grew up nursing injured ones back to health." He couldn't help it, after growing up with Happy, it was weird not having a cat in his new life.
Before Blake could reply to that, a new voice broke up the sister's fight. "Would you knock it off? Some of us are trying to sleep!" Then she spotted Ruby.
""Oh no not you again!"" Both she and Ruby shouted in tandem. It seemed Weiss Schnee didn't like loud noises.
"Hey, what's your problem?" Yang asked the white haired girl angrily, "She said she was sorry!"
"She's a hazard to my health!" Weiss rebutted.
Ruby quickly shushed them, "Guys she's right, people are trying to sleep."
"Oh, so NOW your on my side?"
"I was always on your side!"
Natsu had a feeling this wouldn't end well if allowed to continue, so he quickly swiped his hand through the flames of the candle stick that sat beside Blake. With the last source of light in the room gone, the girls stopped talking, and with a huff returned to their own mats, stepping on others the whole way.
Right, last chapter before the action starts. Now to answer the question about the pairing: to start Natsu will have a few one night stands before he gets with Blake and later may develop a harem which would include Yang, but not Ruby- who will be paired with Weiss end of discussion on that, don't like that pairing? Then why do you read RWBY fanfics? Its the most popular one.
Ideas, praise, and everything else is appreciated. R&R and see you next time.
