-RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth and Monty Oum-

-Ruby's POV-

Humans can be strong.

If I didn't know that before, I sure as hell know it now. I snuck a glance at the person standing next to me - orange hair, green eyes, white jacket. The perfect way to describe the strongest human I've met so far.

They think of him as a criminal; I think of him as my best friend.

"Why do I have to do this again?" Roman groaned, bringing his hand up to fix his invisible hat.

I laughed. "You need intel, you want there to be no more hunters, right? It's already a far fetched goal - I mean, I've been trying for centuries."

He sighed, "I suppose Beacon isn't too, too bad... I can see the pros... But yet I can also see the cons." Turning to look out the air ship's window, Roman lowered his eyes to the city below them.

This was the man I left my pack for. To help him with this. While I'm away, who is supposed to protect my brothers and sisters?

I sighed softly, can't ruin my image yet. They say first impressions are everything.

Turning my back on Roman, I walked toward the other side of the ship to watch the announcement from Goodwitch.

Maybe Roman was right; maybe this was a bad idea.

-Adam's POV-

This was a horrible idea.

I didn't need anyone to tell me that. I knew that. I despised these bastards.

The image of one of the professers popped up next to me. I turned towards it, listening and watching.

... Well ... Isn't that motivating?

I heard a snort from behind me. "She is going to teach us, huh? Goodwitch seems so strict ..." I turned my head to see a girl with a red hood - Which was pulled up.

"So this is what we're going to get for years of training?"

I looked towards the other voice and saw a girl with curled black hair. Wasn't she a little old to be in this school? Whatever, I'll keep my eye on her.

The airship stopped at Beacon. The school was beautiful, even I could agree on that much.

"In all my years..." I recognized the voice as the girl from earlier, I had expected her to seem as old as me - but she was younger; at least looked it. But the way she spoke the words...

Before I could approach her about it, a boy walked up to her waving her away.

I saw the older woman from before leave the airship.

What a strange array of people...

-Roman's POV-

Red led me toward the auditorium.

"Say... How do you know your way around, Red?" I asked. As far as I'm concerned she'd been a Beowulf for a long time.

"I never told you about him, did I..." She sighed.

We stopped in front of a building, "The aud?"

She nodded and let go of my arm.

We walked in, and stood near the back.

-Cinder's POV-

A girl with a red hood stood frozen in front of the building.

"Are you okay?" I asked her with a smile.

The girl broke out of her stupor. "Huh- Oh. Yeah. Sorry."

"It's totally okay. I ... do it too sometimes. Cinder Fall." I stretched my hand out to her.

"What?" Her face twisted in question.

I laughed, "My name - It's Cinder Fall."

"Oh!" She seemed to scold herself, then responded with a "Ruby Ertin. Call me Ruby - wait no, call me Er - Actually - know what? Just call me Ruby."

Her antics were amusing. A boy with red hair was glowering at me. I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Little wolf! You made it!" She turned toward the voice.

"Summer!" Ruby ran up to the girl and hugged her.

"I'll keep this brief..."

The woman next to Summer widened her eyes.

"Shit! We're late!"

Ruby let out a relaxed laugh.

"Relax! Ozzy is really lax with some of his rules!"

-Chapter 1 End-

Thank you for reading the first chapter. Sorry that it is so short. I had minimal time to type and I wanted break time on Winter break but didn't want the people I promised this story to on G to wait anymore.
