Chapter 2: Meeting new faces
As the airship came to a stop many of the passengers soon started to block the exit. One, in particular, was so excited to leave, soon push everyone out of the way and made his way toward the nearest trashcan throwing up with excitement.
Making our way down the walkway the group of three start to see the entrance of beacon academy and the beautiful school where they will be staying for the next four years.
"The view from Vale got nothing on this." Yang said to the other two.
POP!
Both Yang and Popper turn towards Ruby waiting to hear her response but saw that she was geeking out over all of the weapons around her.
Popper soon turn to Yang trying to understand what was happening.
POP?
Pointing at the girl.
"Don't worry she gets like this." Yang reaches for her sister and tries to pull her away.
"Ow...Ow."
"Easy there little sister they're just weapons."
"Just weapons? They're an extension of ourselves they're a part of us Yang. Oh, there so cool!"
Seeing as both sisters were having a moment, Popper soon started to walk away from them and start to head towards the center of the school. As soon as he reaches a strange statue he feels a buzzing sensation on one of his pockets. Reaching for it he pulls out his scroll and saw that he received a new message.
'Where are you?!'
'POP!'
'Speak normally please.'
...
'On a secret mission right now, might not be home in two or three days! Talk to you soon Pops!'
With that out of the way, he puts his scroll back into his pocket and starts to move again, but as soon as he took his first steps he hears an explosion behind him and quickly turns around.
From a distance, he can see Ruby and someone else covered in smoke from head to toe. With nothing better to do, he runs in their direction. As soon as he got close to both, Popper soon realise a few bottles of Dust were spread out all over the ground, being the nice person that he is he decide to go ahead and pick them up, once in his hands he starts to juggle them around while walking toward the two.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CLOWN?!"
Looking at the girl in white, he sees the girl running toward him. Stopping in his tracks he soon catches the containers that he was juggling with both hands, but one was falling toward his head, looking up he sees it fall straight down to him. With no more room in his hands, he opens his mouth to try and catch it with his teeth.
But before it landed another hand reach for the bottle and pulled it toward the person.
"Let's try not to cause more explosions here shall we." A new person soon said. Turning toward her, he sees a girl in black wearing a bow on her head.
POP!
With a quick nod, He turns his attention back to the girl in white trying to return the bottles.
"Unbelievable this is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about. You two dolts! What are you even doing here?" She begins to raise her voice at Popper taking the bottles that he had on his hands and placing them in the suitcase that she had.
"Hey, I said I was sorry princess. And don't be mean to him, he's only trying to help you."
"It's heiress actually. Weiss Schnee heiress to the Schnee dust company one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world."
"Finally some recognition."
"The same company infamous for its controversial labor forces and questionable partners."
PFFT!
They all turn to the young man seeing him hold a hand over his mouth trying his best not to laugh.
"How dare... The nerve of...UGH!" With that, she takes one last bottle from the girl's hands and begins to walk away.
"I promise to make this up to you!" Ruby said trying her best to get the message across. While Popper just waves goodbye to the girl.
Sigh..."I guess I'm not the only one having a rough first day." Ruby said to herself.
With a quick pat on the back, she turns to Popper just giving her a smile.
"Thanks... So what's your-." She turns to the other girl but sees her start to also walk away from the two.
Seeing this Ruby just falls to the ground with a defeated look on her face. While Popper just stood there turning his back on Ruby and reaching into his sleeve, pulling a bottle of Blue Dust and putting it inside his jacket.
"Hey, I'm Jaune." A new voice is heard and soon find a new person next to us.
"Ruby... Aren't you the guy that threw up on the ship?"
PFFT!
"Look all I'm saying is that motion sickness is a much more common problem than people let on."
"Look sorry but vomit boy was the first thing that came to mind."
POP!
With a quick nod, Popper agrees.
"See even Popper agrees with me on this."
"Oh yeah, what if I called you Craterface."
PFFT!
"Hey, you are supposed to back me up on this." She said to Popper seeing him cover his mouth and turning his head to the side." And that explosion was an accident."
"Well, the names Jaune Arc, short sweet rolls of the tongue ladies love it."
POP?
"Do they?"
"They will... Well, I hope they will."
Ruby and Popper just turn to each other, not knowing how to respond to that.
..
...
...
"Well, I got this thing."
Soon Ruby reaches into her back and pulls out a huge scythe.
"Whoa is that a scythe?" Jaune asks in wonder.
"Its also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle."
"A what..."
POP?
"It's also a gun."
Popper just claps his hands amazed at the weapon that Ruby had.
"So what do you have?"
Soon Jaune pulls out a sword and a shield, showing both Ruby and Popper his weapon. He then started to explain that it was just a normal sword and shield and that it was a hand-me-down from his parents. Still, it got both Ruby and Popper excited about the weapon.
"What about you Popper what's your weapon?"
...
...
With a quick 'oh' face, he soon reaches inside his suit trying to find his weapon.
"Sooo, what's the deal with him, Ruby?"
"I really don't know. We just met at the airship, but he doesn't really talk at all. All he's been doing is making 'POP' sounds. Also, he pulls out really weird stuff from his jacket. If anything I think his weapon has to be something small."
Both just look at Popper Pulling out many things from his jacket and putting them back trying to find whatever his weapon was.
Soon he stops messing with his jacket and smacks his head almost like he remembers where he put it. Soon he reaches inside his left sleeve and grabs onto something pulling out.
"Wow!/How in the?"
As soon as Popper pulled out both just stare in awe at the massive Mallet that came out of his sleeve.
"How did you do that Popper?!"
POP!
He just motions with a hand that it was a secret.
