AN:Here's chapter two. thanks for all the reviews guys. I hope you enjoy.

Reflections

"Now that Miss Xiao Long is healed, do you boys mind if I ask you a question?" Ozpin inquired as Yang continued to hug Naruto. The poor boy was getting a little red in the face and awkwardly patting her back, saying "there, there" despite nothing being wrong with her any longer. Sasuke wanted to snort. Naruto was clearly out of his depth here.

"Uh… sure, go ahead," Naruto replied after sharing a glance with Sasuke. The raven-haired boy had merely stared back impassively. It was the closest thing to agreement he would get.

"Right then. From what I understand… you two are friends, yes?" Ozpin asked. Naruto rose a brow as Blake and Ruby managed to pull the oh-so-grateful Yang off of him. Her hands were still reaching out to him, but at this point he had a feeling she was just trying to tease. He doubted anyone in the room had missed him blushing.

"Yeah… more like brothers, I'd say. He's my rival too," Naruto responds. Sasuke's face darkened, his scowl becoming far more noticeable to Ironwood, Glynda, and Weiss. He did not refute the claim though. He can't, really. He knew he'd be lying.

"I see… why then, were the two of you fighting so ferociously? That's not the kind of battle I'd expect from brothers… even if they are rivals." Ozpin's remark sobered the levity that had been building and the young huntsman began to take this situation more seriously again. The professor was right. Ruby couldn't imagine ever fighting Yang so seriously that they caused that much damage. Weiss felt similarly. Despite whatever misgivings she may have with Winter and Whitley, she would never dream of fighting them with even half the deadly intent that those two had shown in the arena.

Sasuke snorted. Everyone's attention was drawn to him.

"Seems you all have had it real easy compared to where we're from."

"Sasuke, can you please not be your usual self for five minutes?" frowned Naruto. The Uchiha's eyes met his and he scoffed. Naruto's fists clenched, but he resisted the nearly overwhelming urge to sock his friend right in the jaw and continued. "Where we're from… we'd just won a war that had engulfed our entire world. But once everything was said and done… Sasuke and I found ourselves of opposing ideals. So we fought."

"Opposing ideals?" asked Ironwood, incredulous, "you mean to tell me a disagreement caused the near destruction of Amity Colosseum and injury to our citizens? Do you even understand what you've done? What this means for our struggle with the Grimm?"

"Obviously we don't. You know we're not from your dimension," grunted Sasuke. Weiss blinked and voiced the question her fellow students all had.

"What…?"

"We're not from this dimension. Not from your world. Remnant, right? We're from a place called the Elemental Nations… and it was far more than just a disagreement," Naruto spat, first eyeing Ironwood, then Sasuke venomously.

"It has to be done. You shouldn't have gotten in my way, but I always knew you would. You never could mind your own business. Even when we were kids," said Sasuke.

"Has to be done? Sasuke, what you're doing is the last thing that ever needs to happen!"

"Humanity is a blight upon itself, Naruto! We're collectively evil. There will be another war unless I do this. There's always another war… but at least my way, the only sides are me against the world. They'll be united," Sasuke shot back. Naruto's fingers flexed at his side.

"We're already united! There's no reason that can't last. Your plan is just unnecessary bloodshed!"

"We're only united because a goddess descended and tried to kill everyone on the planet! The Shinobi need a common enemy or all we do is fight and kill each other. You want the cycle of hatred to end? My way is the answer!"

"Your way is just more hatred! You won't be any different from Kaguya. We defeated her; you an me. We put everything between us aside and we made that crazed goddess regret messing with our home! And if we work together and help all the other hidden villages put aside their differences too, our world will prosper!" Naruto shouted back, stepping up to his wayward teammate. Ozpin was starting to worry. He knew now that asking that question may have been a grave mistake.

He'd already been fully aware that these two boys were powerful, leagues above even his own abilities and strength. But for them to have defeated a goddess? For all his knowledge gathered through years and years of reincarnations, Ozpin could not fathom it. How does one possibly defeat a god?

"The generations before ours won't ever stop, Naruto. Don't be a fool! Killing the five Kage and focusing all the world's hatred on me will ensure peace!" Weiss's eyes widened and Ironwood's scowl (somehow) deepened even further. To everyone else in the room, Sasuke sounded at least somewhat unhinged. And they were likely right. There was really no way to be "normal" and be a Shinobi, especially not with the kind of hardships Sasuke had endured.

"You know I won't ever let you do that. Sasuke… you've gotta stop trying to do everything alone. That's always been your problem," Naruto spat.

"Alone, huh? You would know about that wouldn't you, orphan boy? But unlike you, I don't need other people around me to do what I need to do. They're just a hinderance! You especially… you're my best friend; my only friend. You're the only one who could ever hope to bring me down. The only one in my way! When I kill you… there won't be anyone left to stop me… and I'll finally be truly alone." Naruto gritted his teeth as he settled a venomous glare upon his brother in all but blood.

They were just rehashing the same conversation from a week ago. Nothing had changed. Nothing was settled. There was no way they'd get through to each other like this. He sighed. There was only one thing left to do.

"You won't kill me. But since you won't listen, I'll just beat the shit out of you and drag you back home. I'll break every last bone in your body if I have to, but this ends now, Sasuke," Naruto replied as he brandished his kunai, Sasuke doing the same with his sword. No one had noticed them draw their weapons. Another frightening reminder that they dwarfed them in everything physical. One thing was clear though. Right now, the world had faded away for them. All they saw was each other.

And that was not a good thing.

Weiss saw the remnants of falling petals in her peripheral and felt a sudden wind flutter her hair. Her heart stopped. Her leader was not about to do what Weiss thought she was, was she?

"Ruby, no!" yelled Yang. Weiss winced as she, Yang, and Blake were already moving forward, trying to stop the young girl even though they knew it was in vain. They weren't fast enough. Even if they were, they'd only be in the line of fire too.

"Please don't fight," Ruby pleaded as she managed to get between the two Shinobi. Their weapons came to an abrupt halt mere inches from the girl's head. Her shortness would have ended her life if the two of them hadn't had so much control over their bodies. Ruby's appearance between them seemed to bring them back to reality. Sasuke clicked his tongue and sheathed his blade. Naruto slipped his Kunai back into its pouch on his leg. The two of them never looked away from one another.

"We will finish this," Naruto grunted.

"Hn."

Ruby sighed in relief as her teammates walked up to her. Yang was scolding her, demanding to know what she thought she was doing.

"Do you know how dangerous that was? You know what they're capable of! Why would you try and get between them!? What if they couldn't stop, Ruby!?"

"But Yang…"

"No, Ruby. That was reckless! Even for us." As Yang continued to scold her little sister, Weiss stepped up to the two Shinobi. She was nervous, of course. She'd never met someone as powerful as them. And she'd certainly never been so close to anyone who could squish her like an ant. Taking a deep breath, she bowed before them in thanks.

"Thank you for not hurting Ruby." Said Weiss. At her side, Blake nodded.

"Hn."

"No need for all that. We don't want to hurt anyone here. It's our bad for letting our emotions get the better of us. We were trained better than that," said Naruto. Sasuke snorted.

"Training you ignored, Naruto."

"Shut up, Sasuke," Naruto snapped back. There wasn't any venom in their tones. It was a weird thing to see for the others in the room. They'd literally just talked about killing and brutalizing each other, yet here they were, almost lightheartedly teasing one another. It was like they'd flipped a switch.

"I'm sorry I brought that about," said Ozpin. His coffee lying spilt across the floor. He'd dropped it in haste and panic when he saw Ruby shift into petals. The girl was fast and while he would have saved her life, it would have been through trading his own.

"No, no. That was our fault," Naruto apologized again. Nearby, Glynda finally let herself breathe as lowered her riding crop. They needed to get these boys out of here.

~X~

Ironwood paced back and forth in Ozpin's office. It had been over five hours since the young Xiao Long had been healed. He, Ozpin, and Glynda had all taken some time to recuperate. The Beacon headmaster took it upon himself to guide the two Shinobi on a small tour of the grounds before taking them back to their rooms. He'd only returned to his office around thirty minutes ago. Ironwood had poured himself a stiff drink after leaving the nurses office. Three times. Glynda had shared in two of those drinks.

It did little to calm their tension in the end. They were glad they'd followed Ozpin's lead on this though. Doing battle with a pair of teens fully capable of subduing a goddess didn't sound appealing at all; having them swayed by Salem even less so.

"What now?" James finally asked.

"You stop pacing a path in my carpet, hopefully."

"Ozpin, I'm serious here!" Ironwood responded, but stopped walking nonetheless.

"I know. I've already taken care of it to some degree. The two of them have agreed to attend Beacon academy as a two-man team until they can find a way home. From henceforth, they will be known as team NS. Or Nightshade," Ozpin replied.

"You plan to have them around the students!" exclaimed Glynda as she stood to her feet. Ozpin sipped his coffee.

"Yes. It is the best course of action we have. They can't be left to interact with each other exclusively. The school would eventually get destroyed. They can't be staff. They don't fit the age properly and quite frankly they don't know enough about Remnant to be an assistant teacher in any class aside from combat. That also leaves them mostly on their own as well… which again, means the school would eventually be reduced to rubble. We can't have them guarded like criminals. They'd lose trust and we can't fight them regardless. No. Students are the best cover for them.

"They fit right in as far as age is concerned. And you can moderate who they fight during combat classes. If you have them fight at all. Their presence shouldn't be too noticeable either, what with the various academies still being here. The Vytal Festival has only been postponed until the colosseum has been repaired, after all. And with the festival already in full swing, so to speak, they can't be entered late. So they won't have to fight anyone and risk revealing themselves that way."

"And they… agreed to this?" Glynda asked, struggling with Ozpin's logic. He was right. It was the least suspicious thing they could do.

"Yes. They even said they would hold back as much as possible if they ever did have to fight a student. They also agreed to take care of the Grimm that resulted from all of the unrest they caused. All they wanted in exchange was access to the Emerald Forest for their training and their experiments for returning home," Ozpin smiled. Glynda let out a huff of air as she brought her slender fingers up to message her temples. Ironwood was pinching the bridge of his nose.

Ozpin took another sip. His two companions gritted their teeth at the sound, finding it thoroughly infuriating at the moment. They simultaneously had the exact same thought:

I need another drink.

~X~

Weiss smoothed our her hair in the mirror, taking extra care to make sure it looked as immaculate as possible. Beside her, Yang was busy brushing her hair and checking herself out. She turned this way and that, looking over every curve she possessed. Their reasons for the grooming were so different it was almost ridiculous. Two weeks had gone by since the Shinobi had arrived on Remnant. A week since they'd healed Yang. No one had seen them since then. Classes were only just now starting up again which was the catalyst for this current grooming. Last night Professor Goodwitch had gathered up their team along with JNPR to let them know that the two Shinobi would be attending classes as students of all things! Weiss had almost gaped. Almost.

What's more, the two dimension hoppers had been given a room just a little down the hall from them the previous morning. Professor Goodwitch had assured them all that it would be fine. The two boys had yet to cause any problems and at the moment Glynda was staying in the room directly across from them just in case. Regardless, it was a little unnerving. Which is exactly why Weiss was fretting over her appearance so much.

She wasn't trying to look good for anyone. No, that's what Yang was doing. Apparently the girl had mostly gotten over her fear of the two powerful boys and wanted to make the blonde one blush as much as possible. Weiss on the other hand… she was just so nervous she need to do something with herself. Singing would draw too much attention and she couldn't exactly go train right now. Class would begin soon and she had no intention of skipping. So all she could do was constantly look for some sort of flaw in her appearance. An out of place strand of hair here, a bit of lint on her dress there. She was nitpicking uselessly as this point and she knew it. But what was she to do?

Sure, Sasuke and Naruto weren't violent—to other people—but just knowing that they would be around and could squish anyone at any time they wanted was nerve-wracking enough.

"Weiss, you look fine," sighed Yang.

"I know. I always look more than fine," was her haughty response. It was nearly reflex. Yang snorted.

"Why are you getting so dolled up, anyway? You have a crush on one of our new classmates? Huh?" Yang grinned, elbowing Weiss playfully as she tried to get answers. Red tinted Weiss's cheeks as she thought of the sun-kissed blonde and his brooding, but handsome, friend. Did she have a crush? No. Not at all. But her thoughts had already been on them when Yang asked and she could at least admit they were attractive in the privacy of her own mind.

"No. I do not have a crush. That seems to be exclusive to you at the moment."

"Blush says otherwise, Weisscream."

"I told you to stop referring to me by that ridiculous name!" Weiss retorted, her voice raising a bit as her cheeks reddened further, this time in slight annoyance and embarrassment. Yang's grin widened.

"Seems you're not denying it anymore though. Which one is it?" Yang inquired. Weiss's eye twitched.

"Leave her alone, Yang. She's clearly on edge," called Blake from her bed halfheartedly, book in hand. Her eyes never even stopped roaming the page she was on. Was she enjoying Yang ribbing Weiss? A little. It was a guilty pleasure at this point. Did she want Weiss to erupt? No. That was annoying and loud.

"I admit… tall, broody, and handsome is appealing… but it's all about the blond for me. He's… hot. And I love hot things. Do you like hot things Weisscream?" Yang continued salaciously, ignoring Blake entirely. Weiss's pale complexion was nowhere to be seen now, replaced full on by cherry red cheeks. She looked down bashfully and covered her mouth with a free hand as she mumbled something to herself.

"Yang." Blake's warning this time was much sterner, her eyes peeking over her book in a glare. Yang held up her hands in surrender.

"Fine, fine. Sorry, Weiss. I'm done teasing."

"That wasn't very nice of you, Yang," Ruby admonished as she walked out of the restroom. Yang just ruffled her little sister's hair while saying Weiss just made it too easy. Ruby whined like only a little sister could and tried in vain to make Yang stop. A few moments later the young Schnee recovered her faculties and glared at her friend as Ruby went to the mirror to fix her hair. She didn't care as much as Yang or Weiss might, but that didn't mean she wanted to walk out of her room looking like a tornado had attacked her head.

"I hope you are aware that I will not let that offense stand. I will pay you back, Xiao Long." Weiss huffed, turned with dignified grace despite what had just happened to her, and walked towards the door. Yang just smirked.

"Looking forward to it." Blake rolled her eyes at Yang's parting shot. Weiss opened the door and froze. Standing before her now were the very subjects of their conversation. Her cheeks tinted again as she looked up into the clear blue eyes of Yang's crush. Naruto looked down at her with a soft smile set upon his face before he turned his head just enough to throw a grin at Sasuke.

"Told you it was their room."

"Hn. The other ones must be next door then. They both sounded close."

"Walls playing tricks on us. I'll at least admit they're thicker here than back home, ttebayo."

"H—hello?" stuttered Weiss as Yang moved up to her side with a radiant smile.

"Hey there, Whiskers! Come to see lil' ol' me?" Naruto rose a brow at the moniker she'd given him, but didn't comment on it. It was obvious enough where it had come from.

"Sort of? The old man told us to ask you guys to show us to class," Naruto responded, causing Yang to step closer to him.

"I'll show you around anywhere you want."

"Heh. Thanks, Yang." He replied, chuckling awkwardly. Sasuke absently wondered if Yang could come on any stronger. He wouldn't have to find out since Weiss gripped her teammate's shoulder and pulled her back.

"Excuse her. She hasn't been properly house trained just yet," Weiss apologized, ignoring Yang's indignation at her side. Naruto's eyes flicked back over to the heiress and she found herself caught up in them again. It was surreal… looking into the eyes of what amounted to a god in the flesh. And having that living god look back at her in kind? She could not help but feel… something.

She didn't know what it was. It wasn't quite the unhinging fear she experienced before; the kind of fear that made you question your place in the world an contemplate suicide. He could wipe her off the face of the planet. She knew that, but she could not be afraid of this person for some reason. She wasn't comfortable either. Being in the presence of these two set her nerves on fire, in a sense. She could feel every tiny breeze and the smallest caress of her dress's fabric. Her heart rate picked up and it was a struggle to keep her face as normal as possible. She felt distinctly uncomfortable in her own skin and it was all their fault.

She really wanted to go back to the mirror and smooth out her hair again. But Weiss couldn't look away, let alone turn around and walk back into her room. There was just something about Naruto's eyes that rooted her in place.

For Naruto, he was busy observing her hair. It was rare he met anyone with hair as white as snow. The most recent example hadn't been an enjoyable experience either. Kaguya was beautiful, yes… but she was like Nerium Oleander. Lovely to look at, but every part of her was a most deadly poison.

Weiss on the other hand, looked far more delicate. He didn't think she was fragile or anything like that. She was training to be a huntress, after all. While that didn't really mean anything to him and Sasuke, it meant something here on Remnant. A simple damsel in distress she was not, he was sure. The contrast of her refined and almost dainty features with her chosen occupation rose questions in his mind. He couldn't help but wonder what brought her to Beacon. There was definitely more to her than her soft features. The scar across her eye made that very clear.

"Naruto. We gonna go? Or are you going to stare at her all day?" grunted Sasuke. Naruto blinked and looked away from Weiss's hair to lay his eyes on his friend. Weiss came out of her brief stupor as well. Hesitantly, she turned to look at Yang who was attempting to pout but failed to keep the amusement from reaching her eyes. Suppressing a groan, Weiss looked back to Naruto and Sasuke as the blond of the two furrowed his brows in seeming confusion.

The Schnee heiress opened her mouth to invite them along to class with them, but Ruby beat her to it.

"Follow us and we'll show you where our first class is!" exclaimed the small leader of RWBY, elbowing her way between Weiss and Yang with a large grin on her face. Naruto smiled back at her and for some reason Weiss felt as though today would be a long one.

After looking over the reviews, I think this will ultimately be Naruto, Weiss, and Yang. I'm still not entirely sure, but i could grow to really enjoy the chemistry.
