Past

-Thats is your name?This is not a name for a fighter, from now one,your name will be Ceodore.

-I...yes sir.

-Call me master.

Present

Looking to the academy, both sisters were more than impressed, but one of them was paying attention to other things.

-Sis! That kid has a collapsible staff. Ohhh, and she got a fire sword!

-Easy their little sister, they're just weapons. -Said Yang.

-Just weapons? They're an extension of ourselves. They're apart of us. They are so cool. -Say Ruby in a happy mood.

-Well, why can't you swoon over on your own weapon? Aren't you happy with it?

Asked Yang to her little sister, Ruby then push her scythe/sniper rifle.

-Of course, I'm happy with Crescent Rose! I'm just really like seeing new ones. It is like meeting new people. But better.

Unsatisfied with the comment of her little sister she pushes her hood to her face.

-Ruby, come on, why don't you go try and make some friends of your own?

-But why would I need friends when I have you?

-Well actually my friends are here now gotta go and catch up, K, Cya later, bye! -Suddenly a little group surround Yang and take her away from her sister, all of them go through of her so fast she starts to spinning around blabbing what comes into her mind

-Wait, where are you going!? Are we so supposed to go to our dorms? Where are our dorms? Do we have dorms? I don't know what I'm doing. -Ruby said confused as she fell back into a pile of luggage.

-What are you doing?!

-Uh, sorry.

-Sorry!? Do have any idea of the damage you could have caused? -Ruby didn't know what to say. She tries help with the luggage, but the girl didn't let her. -Give me that! this is Dust, mined and purified from Schnee Quarry! -Again, she didn't know what to say. -What are you brain dead? Dust! Fire, Water, Lightning, the elements, energy. -She keeping yelling at her balance the content of her luggage, not realizing the dust escaping from the bottle, Ruby unintentionally sniffing. -Are you even listening to me? Is any of this sinking, what do have to say for yourself?

-AAAAA-CCHHOOO!

*BOOOM*

-Ugh, unbelievable! This is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about!

-I am really, really sorry. -Ruby said, nervously tapping her fingers together.

-Ugh, you complete DOLT. What are you even doing here!? Aren't you a little young to be attending Beacon?

-Well, I-I...

-This isn't your ordinary combat school, it's not just sparring and practice you know, we're here to fight monsters, so, watch where you're going!

-Hey, I said I was sorry Princess.

-It's heiress, actually. -Say the girl who was reading a book coming closer to them. -Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world.

-Finally, some recognization. -Say the girl named Weiss with a happy tone, but the girl with black bow start speak again.

-The same company infamous for its controversial labor forces and questionable business partners.

Weiss let a groan from the comment while Ruby giggle a little, grabbing back the bottle what goes flying from the explosion she stormed off, Ruby try to start a conversation with the girl with the bow but when she turns around she already was walking away, Ruby was feeling sad, her first day in the academy was not what she expected, she could only fall looking to the sky.

-Welcome to the Beacon. -She said in a low voice.

-Hey. -She open the eyes and see a boy with black hair and dark blue eyes, he was wearing a black shirt with a dark blue armor covering his chest and shoulders,white pants with metal boots also with a dark blue color,in his neck a long scarf/hood also dark blue colored and a gray gauntlet. -You ok? -He reached his hand to her take it.

-I'm fine thanks. -She accepted the hand.

Ruby and the boy were walking in the courtyard of the academy. Talking like they were friends in half of they lives.

-So, what happened back there?

-It was an accident, I swear! I was with my sister and she left me and I accidentally fall and the other girl luggage, she got angry at me and start to yell at me and... -She stops when she hears the boy chuckle. -Don't laugh at me! -She says with puffing cheeks.

-Ok, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

-So, my name is Ruby and yours?

-Ceodore.

Ruby suddenly stop walking, her eyes widened in surprise to the name of the boy, he was still walking when notice Ruby stand behind.

-Y-y-you're Ceodore?

-Yes.

-T-t-the apprentice of the Dark Knight?

Already was the biggest topic in the mouths of the students of Beacon, a man only know as the dark knight have an apprentice who has become a student in the academy. Stories and rumors were being talked about the possibility of the apprentice be like his master, a bloodthirsty warrior, who have to cut both humans and Grimms and send them to another world in a painful death.

-Something wrong?

-N-no, nothing, it just...y'know, well...

-When talking about the apprentice of the Dark Knight you expected someone really intimidating, like a human Grimm or something?

-No, of course not, I was expecting a big and scary guy. -She says in a low voice. He laughs off the comment surprising Ruby. -Are you not mad?

-No, is not the first time I hear that.

What comes after that was an awkward silence, she try to break the mood in the only way what comes into her mind.

-So, I got this thing. -Ruby says pushing Crescent Rose out, nearly giving a heart attack on Ceodore.

-Wow... this is a scythe?

-It's also a customizable, high impact velocity sniper rifle.

-Soooo, its also a gun?

-Yes, so what you have?

-Well, first I have this. -Ceodore put from his back a silver shield with a circular form with a golden cross in the middle. -And I have this blade. -He pulls a simple sword with a white handhold and a gray blade.

-Well, is cool, is not everyone who is a fan of the classics, I mean, I become a kinda dork when coming to weapons, I've like that since I build.

-Wait, wait, wait, you made that? -He asked, surprise the girl build a weapon what look deadly and dangerous.

-Of course, everyone in Signal makes their own weapons, you did not make that sword?

-I was a gift of my...master, he says once he uses against one of his most dangerous opponents. So, I think is kinda cool.

After he done the speech Ruby feel a touch of sadness in his voice when he mentioned his master, she quickly changes the topic.

-So, why did you help back there?

-I don't know, maybe my conscious won't let me left a poor girl in the floor. You look like needed a hand, a friend and why I not could be this friend?

-Ok, hey where we going?

-Weeeeeeelllllll, I'm suuuure the main hall is in thaaaaat WAY. -Ceodore says point in a random direction.

-Are you sure?

-No, but hey, see that like an adventure, we're going into the unknown.

She giggles.

-I don't see that way, but let's go then.

All the way to the auditorium was fun to Ruby, she did not expect Ceodore to be such good and funny guy, all the stories talk about the Dark Knight training an apprentice to be the next bloodthirsty warrior of Remnant, but this guy next to her was nothing than a gentle soul. Ceodore is kind, funny, nice, it was hard to believe that he would be the next Dark Knight, they made their way to auditorium and Ceodore raise his hand in a motion of victory.

-Yes, told you we could make in time.

Ruby giggle of the act of her friend, she then hears a familiar voice calling her.

-Ruby, over here, I save to you a spot!

-Hey, my sister is calling me, I gotta go, see you later.

Said Ruby giving her goodbye to Ceodore who bye to her too when Ceodore was left alone he has a strange sensation of being watched... by almost everyone in the auditorium. The other students were parting away from him, leaving him a small space for himself.

Ruby see this and feel bad for him,she got the opportunity to know Ceodore and see enough of him to know that he is not a bad guy what everyone thought, her own thoughts were interrupted by her sister asking how was her first day, Ruby started to complain about how she left her alone and told to her how she accidentally feel in other girl luggage and the fact that she explodes, the girl in question was slowly coming closer to her.

-YOU!

-Oh god, is happening again. -Ruby said jumping on her sister's arms.

-You got lucky to not blow up of the ground.

-Oh my god you really explode. -Said Yang almost not believing in what she heard. Ruby tried to defend herself but Weiss show to her a pamphlet explains her company was not responsible for an accident from the customers, lo and behold, she didn't understand almost anything.

-Do you really want to make up to me?

-Yes.

-Read that and never speak to me again. -When Weiss stop the talking Yang interject trying to make the things better to her sister.

-Look you two maybe start with the wrong feet, how about you two start from the beginning?

-Right, hello Weiss I'm Ruby, we could go shopping for school supplies.

-Yeah and try our clothes,paint our nails and talking about cute boys like the sloppy with the Mohawk over there.

-Wow, really?

-...No.

After the headmaster speech, they all change to a sleep attire getting ready to sleep.

-It's like a biiiiig slumber party.

-I don't think dad would approve all the boys.

-I know I do, purr. -She keeps her attention on the guys who were wrestling with each and other and some of then showing off their muscle. She sees Ruby writing something. -What are you doing?

-Writing a letter, I promise to tell to everyone in the Signal how the things are going.

-Ohhh this is sooo cute.

-Shut up, is hard not know anyone here, I don't have any friend to talk to.

-How about the guy from this morning, y'know, that one with black hair?

-You mean Ceodore?

The cheerful face of Yang change to one o surprise after hearing the name of the apprentice, like the people call him.

-Wait, wait, wait, you spend almost all day with him?

-Ahh, yes, I mean he was really nice you know? -Yang starts to look to her sister like she says the biggest bullshit she ever heard.

-Ruby, you shouldn't talk to this guy, he could be dangerous.

-But he was so nice and...

-Ruby. -Interrupt Yang. -Anyone who is related with the Dark Knight cannot be good, he must have played a nice guy to you!

Ruby look to her sister and see that she was serious, she knew the story, she hears the rumors, but after spending an almost entire day with him she starts to think the rumors were just that, rumors.

-Yang, I know you are worried about me, but you don't need to worry about, Ceodore is really a nice guy.

-I'm just making sure you don't make a friendship with the wrong people if you really wish become his friend, I won't stop you, but I will keep my eye on him.

Ruby rolled his eyes about the overprotective behavior of her sister, she couldn't understand how is ok to her she fighting monsters but become her personal bodyguard when coming to boys and strangers, then how come she let her alone in this morning? She wishes Yang was more like that sometimes, just a little. She looked around and see Ceodore on the floor with a lot of space around, she giggles a little when she sees what he was wearing.

A light blue shirt with a sleeping sheep stamped, white pants, bunny slippers and in his head a sleeping cap with a form of a dog, and the crowd still was a little scared of him.

Next morning

Weiss Schnee has a plan.

She planned to become the partner with a very skilled student, combine their forces and rules in the academy and no one is better than the four times champion of the Mistral Regional Tournament. She only needs to be subtle.

-So Pyrrha, you give any thought who's team you would like to be on? -Very, very subtle. -I'm sure everyone must be eager to unit with a such strong, well-known individual, such as yourself.

-Hmmm... I'm not quite sure, I was planning on letting the chips fall where they may.

-Well, I was thinking maybe we could...

Her line of thought was interrupted by a cold breeze on her spine, Pyrrha could feel too. Both look to the side to see the apprentice looking at a piece of paper. He notices the eyes of girls concentrate on him, after five seconds the girls still keep staring at him.

-Staring it's rude, y'know?

-Sorry, it's just... -Pyrrha tried to talk but the words were not coming, so Weiss interrupt.

-Excuse me, we are in the middle of a conversation.

-Really, you both are quiet for almost ten seconds, looks like the conversation already over.

Weiss frowned at the comments and Pyrrha finally find the words to talk.

-We were talking about make teams, its just something caught our attention.

-If my presence caught the attention of two beautiful girls so I can consider myself lucky.

Both girls blush from the comment, Pyrrha seemed to accept the compliment with a smile on her face, however Weiss not.

-You have nothing better to... to... -She finally realizes with who she was talking to. -Y-y-you're Ceodore.

Here go again, already make ten times since he comes to the academy that everyone act like that to his presence and frankly was starting to get his nerves.

-And you Weiss Schnee, and you are?

-I'm Pyrrha Nikos. N-nice to meet you.

Even a champion like her was careful when close to him, but when she takes a look of him, she doesn't see exactly what expected from someone trained by the Dark Knight. His eyes were showing a gentle soul and in his face a smile of a guy who looks only what is good in the world, he noticed the way she was looking at him, his face got blank expression for a second before smile warmly to her, this makes her blush again and look away, before anyone could say anything a voice come from intercom.

-Would all first-year students please report to Beacon Cliff for initiation? Again, all first-year students report to Beacon Cliff immediately.

-Looks like is our call.

Said Ceodore walking ahead when he was out of view Weiss to speak.

-I don't understand why Ozpin let him come here in first place.

-He must have his reasons. -Talked Pyrrha. -And he didn't look so bad. -She whispered.

With that, they make their way to Beacon Cliffs.

The rules of initiation was simple, fall in the forest and find a partner, that one you make eye contact after you hit the floor will be your partner for the next four years, looked simple for Ceodore but he could hear Ruby whining something, he just shrugged and keep paying attention, some students stared of him, some worried of the possibility of be paired with him. He just ignores and keeps listening to the headmaster, finds a temple and gets the relics, very simple except...

-So any question?

-I have one.

-Good, now prepare yourselves.

-Did you hear me? -They all assume a stance ready to be launched. -So, you gonna dropping us in the forest?

-No, you will be falling.

Some students already have been launched.

-Will have something to cushion the fall?

-No, you will use your own landing strategy.

Yang was launched, Ruby after her.

-If I die, I will haunt for the rest of your LIIIIIIIIIIIIIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...

Now that the apprentice was launched, Glynda takes the opportunity to speak.

-Sir, I still think this is not a good idea.

-Really, make a while that you don't complain about initia...

-I talking about the apprentice.

-He is not like him, Glynda, we have no need to worry about.

-You don't know that, may take a while but still have the possibility of him become like his master.

-Yes, I'm aware of this. But he comes to us asking for a chance, it would be better have someone with his skills like an ally than an enemy.

She sighed, Glynda still doesn't understand why he was so sure about this decision, nothing that she could say would make the headmaster change his mind.

-Fine, but I will keep an eye on him. Any sign of mental stability, we will have to take drastic measures.

She says and both of them keep watching the students trying to pass the initiation but one of the cameras was showing a static image, keep watching the apprentice could be harder than she expected.

End of the chapter.

I re-edited this chapter so many times but only with Gramarly I could see how wrong I wrote this chapter. Remember that English is not my first language and I already told in future chapters the reason for why I writing this in English.

Until next time.
