Ch. 3: Players In Motion
Black And Green
Not long after leaving home, Adrien switched his outfit for something he liked and wore it from now on. A black hat, a black zipped up long-sleeved shirt, a dark green sleeveless jacket, a dark green spiked belt, black pants, black fingerless gloves and dark green shoes.
His fingernails were painted black and sharpened while he added green highlights to his hair, he looked himself in the mirror and approved and met Chloe and Sabrina at the bullhead carrying them to Beacon and they got on and the bullhead took off.
He saw Marinette there and went to say hi and that he was glad she decided to keep the twin tails but as soon as she saw him, she fled much to his confusion with Chloe suggesting Marinette doesn't like the new/real him.
So, he decided to make chit chat with some other passengers and found a girl with black hair with some of it dyed purple. Wearing a purple jacket over a white shirt, black belt, purple pants, black fingerless gloves and black shoes
He said to her "Hi, my name is Adrien Hercules. What's yours?" She then mumbled something he couldn't hear, making him say "Uh..." But was interrupted when a shorter, blonde girl with pigtails. Wearing a short skirted pink tutu, a dark pink belt, white stoking and pink ballerina shoes
Shouted "Hey, my name's Rose. Rose Santa. Her's is Juleka Banshee, don't mind her. She's afraid of her own voice due to her semblance making her voice ten times louder then it's normally is whenever she uses it. It's so nice to meet you, Adrien."
"Nice to meet you too, Rose (awkwardly shakes Rose's hand) and you too Juleka and I know I thing or two about semblances you can't control (goes to shake Juleka's hand, which she does take)." Adrien said, that's when Marinette come back to Adrien and joined the conversation
Red And Black
'Today's the day, my first ever step in becoming a huntsman and I will be sharing it with Adrien (screams inside her head).' Marinette thought until she got a look at Adrien and he looked like a punk poser, which he is probably which is the only explanation Marinette will take for Adrien's new look.
She was so shocked she fled Adrien and rammed into a tall and bulky kid, a bull Faunus. With black hair with some of it dyed yellow. Wearing a black zipped up vest over a grey short-sleeved shirt, grey belt, black pants, grey socks, black shoes and black armbands wrapped around his arms
She was instantly ready for a fight but he kneeled down to her level and said "I'm so sorry about that, how can I help you after that?" "Oh, it's no biggie. I was the one at fault, not you." Marinette said, only for the guy to say
"Really, let me make it up to you. (takes off one of his pins) Here, you can have it (gives her it). Only important people in my life have my pins like my family and my girlfriend, Mylene who is going to another huntsman school."
The guy said, only for Marinette to say "(puts on the pin) Wow, that is so sweet and generous. I don't even know your name." "Ivan, Ivan Maze and you are?" The boy now known as Ivan said, only for Marinette to say "Marinette Grant, at your service." She said with a salute
This got Ivan to laugh and say "Your funny." "Yah, funny..." Marinette said while feeling guilt stricken for assuming he was a thug, as if sensing this Ivan said "You know that everyone assumes I'm dangerous because of my appearance, bad temper and taste in music. So, don't sweat it assuming too. Sometimes it takes reading a book to get past it's cover."
"Yah, your right and speaking of covers. My new friend has a new cover and I will take your message to heart and not judge him for it, (while waving to Ivan) bye Ivan." She said as she left, only for Ivan to say "Bye, Marinette."
She then went back to Adrien and talked to him and some girls he was with for the rest of the plane ride to Beacon and found out he was a pun lover and inwardly cringed at it all the way to Beacon while cursing her bad luck.
Orange
It was just after Ozpin gave them his speech that they went to changing room to get ready for bed that night, when Alya saw another Faunus other than herself and went to say hi but on her way to him. That's when she saw a girl in gold. Stopping a dog Faunus girl from helping her and Alya was so entranced by the oddity of that she ran into the Faunus that she was going to talk to
A turtle Faunus with a sword for a weapon. He needed glasses like her (she assumed he did from the goggles he was wearing), had brown hair. Wore a green cap, a dark green sleeveless puffed-up jacket with a hoodie (not on his head) over a green shirt, green belt, dark green pants, dark green gloves and green shoes.
Luckily, she was stopped from bumping into him by the boy using his semblance. Bubble, which allows him to create invincible bubbles of any size. And he created one around him and when she fell due to it's bounciness, he created one on the ground to cushion her fall and it bounced her right back up to her feet.
He said "I know what you're thinking, having a shell while having a semblance that creates a shield of shorts. What am I thinking? (laughs at his own joke) I'm Nino, by the way. Nino Kappa." "Alya Pied, and I don't think it's over kill by the way. I think it makes you scrappy but in a good way."
Alya said, only for Nino to say "Yah, scrappy but not enough to kill a Grimm. I mean who kills a Grimm with a bubble?" "Hey, at least it's actually there as opposed to an illusion. Which aren't even there."
Alya said, only for Nino to say "You have illusions, awesome. You can create cover, distract Grimm and you're way more talented than you pass yourself off as. (he then said while blushing) Which is a lot if we're speaking honestly."
"You really think that?" Alya said while blushing, then an awkward silence enveloped them until a girl in red and black pulled Alya away from that and Alya said "Dude, thanks for the save (looks at the girl in red and black). Wait, you're not a Faunus!?"
"Been that way ever since I was born." The girl in red and black said scared that something was about to go down, only for Alya to say "And you helped me, do you know how big of a deal that is in the Faunus community or at least it is to me?"
"Judging from your smile, I'll say it's a big deal?" Said the girl in red and black, only for Alya to say while playfully punching the girl in red and black "You bet it is, I'm Alya by the way. What's your name, oh great savior of mine."
"I'm Marinette, Marinette Grant." Said the girl in red and black now known to Alya as Marinette, getting Alya to say while putting her arm around Marinette "I've got a good feeling we're going to be best friends."
