So for this au I plan on making Ruby her canon age (15) and for certain reasons everybody else who is canonically 17, 16 in this story. If you're wondering, there will not be faunus, so it will just be normal people.

*Sorry guys this isn't an update. I was redoing some of the wordings I didn't like that much.*

"Ruby…"

"RUBY!"

"Huh! Wha!" Ruby awoke with a start. Attempting to find the instigator she looked to her left and her silver eyes met lilac.

"YANG! What was that for?!" She belted at the blonde standing beside her bed.

"Sorry sis. I thought you might want some time to get ready before school." Yang said as she held up her hands defensively while sporting a small smile. "Just be ready to go in about an hour." She added as she turned and then headed to walk out the door, shutting it behind her.

Oh yeah. The first day of high school. She already knew she was going to pretty much be a nervous wreck today. Due to certain reasons, such as passing a test meant for a grade ahead of her, she skipped a grade. To be more exact, she went straight from eighth grade to tenth. It was kind of unnerving, but she at least liked the fact that she had just turned fifteen that summer, so there wasn't that much of an age gap.

"Ugh." Ruby groaned as she threw her legs over the side of the bed. She stood up and stretched then made her way over to the dresser next to her bed and pulled out some clean underwear, one of the several band tees she owned, and a pair of black ripped skinny jeans. With her clothes in hand she made her way to the bathroom. She then turned on the shower, waiting a good few minutes for it to reach the desired temperature, then shed her pajamas and stepped in and when she was done she put on the clothes she picked out for the day.

Yang might have been used to getting up really early due to being on Beacon High School's football team, with having practice before school sometimes, but she was usually rather sluggish in the morning. Though after a morning shower and a cookie with her breakfast she kickstarted and got back to her usual hyper and cheerful self.

Now refreshed she walked into the kitchen to see Yang leaning on the counter drinking an energy drink. After Ruby had made herself a bowl of cereal and sat down Yang spoke up.

"So you gonna be alright today?"

A few seconds of silence then Ruby replied, "Hopefully. I'm just worried about the fact that people have already had a year to form their little groups."

"I think you'll be fine. If anything you have Jauney boy, me, and my little groupies."

Ruby thought back to the good friends she already has. Of course she has Yang. Then Jaune Arc, the awkward boy she'd been friends with forever, as they used to be neighbors. Followed by Yang's friends who she'd hangout with from time to time over the past year. Pyrrha Nikos, who is very pretty, seeing as she is a rather famous model, and everyone but Jaune himself knows that she has a crush on Jaune. Lie Ren who is rather quiet, and Nora Valkyrie who is the complete opposite, being really bubbly and hyper. Sun and Neptune, which she had only met a few times here and there. And last but not least, Blake Belladonna. From the several times she had met her Ruby knew she was rather quiet, really smart, and really beautiful. But she had some extra knowledge that she uses to her advantage. The fact that Yang had fallen completely head over heels for her. Though it wasn't hard to see why.

"Yeah. I guess you're right." She replied giving a sly smile. "So, have you tried asking Blake out yet?"

Yang coughed on some of her drink and once she finally regained some of her composure she replied, "N-Not yet. I've been trying to do it though." And before Ruby could say anything Yang continued, "How about you lady killer? Still no girlfriend?"

They sudden mention of not having a girlfriend made her slump in her chair a bit and she quietly replied, "…No."

Yang and everyone in the group knew she was gay. It was a little awkward and frightening telling everyone but in the end she was glad they said they didn't care and supported her. Hell, they even tried to point out girls a few times. As far as Yang and when she gets asked what team she bats for she just simply said " I like who I like" and was okay. Typical Yang though. Although Ruby found a bunch of girls nice and attractive, she had yet to find someone she actually had a crush on, and she still had yet to have an experience in dating at all.

Ruby turned her attention to the clock, to find it was just about time to leave.

"Come on Yang. It's just about time to go." She said as she put her dishes in the sink.

"Oh yeah you're right. Welp come on. Let's head out!"

Ruby sprinted back to her room, picked up her phone and headphones and shoved them in her pocket, then picked up a comfortable yet slightly worn out red hoodie and slipped it on. She walked back to the front door where Yang was waited and slipped on a pair of worn out grey sneakers, and grabbed her school stuff.

"Ready?" Yang asked with a smile.

"Yep!" Ruby replied, popping the p.

The duo walked out of the house, Yang locking the door behind them, and headed toward Yang's black, yellow, and slightly orange motorcycle she dubbed, Bumblebee. Yang grabbed their helmets and tossed Ruby hers, and within a few more minutes they were on the road headed towards Beacon.

It wasn't that long of a drive, maybe about fifteen minutes, before they pulled into the busy parking lot. There were students just standing around talking, others already headed towards the entrance, probably trying to get to class a little early. Yang pulled into one of the parking spots, parked, and then got off the bike and helped Ruby down.

Instead of standing around and talking the sisters headed toward the entrance, only to run into Blake.

"Hey! Blakey!" Yang called as she started to run up toward her.

Blake turned around slightly flustered and replied, "Hey Yang. You're here a little earlier than usual."

Yang then turned to Ruby, and said, "I thought Rubes here would want a little more time to get to class and stuff." And smiled.

Blake gave a small smile then turned to Ruby. "So you ready for high school?"

"As ready as I'll every be." She replied slightly cheerfully.

"Well I'm sure you'll have fun once you get used to it. Well I need to get to class." She looked back to Yang, "Want to walk with me?"

Yang shot glance over to Ruby, as if to ask if she would be okay getting to class, to which see replied with a smile and small nod.

"Sure!" and with that the black and yellow duo headed towards class. Now Ruby had to think about what she should do first.

'I guess I should go to the office first and get my schedule.' She thought as she headed toward the office, remembering where it was from the open house she'd gone to.

Ruby walked up to the office door and just as she opened it and just as she walked in another girl attempted to walk out, only to run right into Ruby, almost knocking her over. She tried to recollect her balance as she started to apologize. 'Of course this happens right off the bat.'

"Sorry! Im really really-" Her words caught in her throat when looked down a bit and her silver eyes locked with beautiful crystal clear blue. Looking at the girl in front of her she noticed that she had a few inches on her and the girl had really pretty blue eyes and beautiful snow white hair pulled into an off center ponytail. The only thing off about her appearance was a single scar that was over her left eye. Even then Ruby thought she was absolutely beautiful.

'Woah. She is so cute' Ruby then noticed the cheerleading uniform the girl had draped over her arm. 'And there goes that. She's most likely straight'

When the girl noticed how intently Ruby was looking at her a brief flash of pink tinged her cheeks then she went back into a rather serious mode.

"Can you move now? You're just standing there like you aren't still in my way you complete dolt!" The girl finally spoke and Ruby noted she had a nice voice, and a not so nice attitude.

"I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention!" Ruby frantically replied and side stepped a bit.

"Just watch where you're going next time!" She said as she pushed passed Ruby and walked off.

Ruby continued into the office, got her schedule, and headed towards the first class listed, which was English.

'What was her problem? I just bumped into her and she goes off. She was pretty though. I wonder if there's a reason she's like that. Maybe if I see her again I'll try talking to her.'

She stepped into the English classroom to be met with unfamiliar faces. That was until she spotted a taller boy with messy blond hair talking to a girl with bright red hair pulled back in a ponytail.

Ruby started to walk over to them and called, "Hey Jaune and Pyrrha!"

"Hey Ruby!" Jaune and Pyrrha replied in unison. Jaune continued, "So we're in the same English class huh?"

"Yep. I guess so!" Ruby said with a smile. "I wonder if we have any other classes together. Do you have your schedule with you?"

"Yeah."

Jaune pulled out his schedule and they compared.

"It looks like we have English and History together." He said right before the bell rang.

"At least there will be some people I know." She smiled at Jaune and Pyrrha then the three made their way to their seats just ask the teacher came in.

The teacher start rambling off but Ruby's thoughts drifted back to the pretty girl she literally ran into earlier.

'Why does she seem so interesting? She's probably straight and she was pretty mean. But there's something that draws me to her like she's the sun or something…'

Ruby tried to pay attention to the teacher but it seemed nearly impossible. She already knew today was going to be a long first day.
