Chapter 2: Starting School

"From now on you, you will be known as Team Scarlet Dragon." Ozpin said.

"Aw. But we already have a team name. We're Team Natsu!" Natsu said proudly.

"Thank you, sir. It's a wonderful name." Erza said, completely ignoring Natsu.

"What!? Erza!"

"People don't call their teams the name of one of their members Natsu." Erza said with a glare directly at Natsu.

"If they did then back home we'd be called Team Happy!" Happy said.

"B-But..."

"No buts Natsu." Erza said with a glare still present on her face.

"Fine!" Natsu said while sulking. "Now old man, mind telling us where we can find some food around here? I'm starvi- Ow Ow Ow! Stop it!" Natsu said before Erza started pulling his ear.

"Show some respect!" Erza said.

"Everything's taken care off." Ozpin said, not fazed by Natsu's comment, and on cue the elevator doors opened revealing a girl wearing the female uniform along with a red cape, with short black hair with a little red on the tips.

"Did you call Prof. Ozpin?" She asked.

"Indeed, I did Miss Rose." Ozpin said before gesturing to the others. "I'd like you to meet Natsu, Happy and Erza." He said before turning to the trio. "This girl is a first year here, mind introducing yourself?"

"Of course- I mean, no, I mean... *Sigh* Hey, I'm Ruby Rose, like Prof. Ozpin said I'm a first year and I'm the leader of team RWBY."

"What the hell!" Natsu yelled scarring Ruby. "Why does she get to have her name on the Te- *Smack* *Gasp* Why... *Thud*" Natsu couldn't finish his whining because Erza decided to reintroduce her fist to Natsu's stomach once again, said reunion making him fall on the ground.

"Sorry about him. He's an idiot."

"ERZA IS SCARY!" Happy yelled while flying around the room, hopping not to be Erza's next victim.

"Miss Rose, I'd like you to take them to their dorm room, it's the one next to yours, and after that, give them a tour around campus. Is that ok with you?" Ozpin asked.

"Of course!"

"Then, you may go." Ozpin said. "The three of us still have some business to take care of." He said receiving a nod from Ruby, before she, Erza, Happy and a now recovered Natsu entered the elevator.

"Oh god… not this mini death-trap again…" Natsu said before entering the elevator.

"Are you sure that this is wise?" Ironwood, who remained silent for the past minutes, asked when the elevator doors closed. "They would to better as soldiers! Not as hunters!"

"They have made their decision." Ozpin said, and Ironwood knew that there was nothing more he could do. So, he walked to the elevator door and waited for it to come up.

"…" He was silent while waiting. "You really need to get another elevator."

"The reason there is only one elevator is because I actually enjoy seeing the discomfort in people's faces when this happens." Ozpin said with an amused tone making Ironwood face palm.

At the entrance of the tower.

"I hate this…" Natsu said as he walked out of the tower.

"What's with him?" Ruby asked.

"Don't worry, his magic makes him suffer from motion sickness." Erza said.

"His magic?" Ruby asked.

"Yes, you see-"

"Yosh! Feeling better!" Natsu said interrupting Erza. "Oi Ruby! Which way is the cafeteria?"

"Dorm room first, cafeteria later." Erza stated, not leaving any room for disobedience.

"All right, follow me!" Ruby said as she led Natsu, Erza and Happy to their new dorm room.

"By the way Ruby." Erza said, after a few minutes of walking, gaining the smaller girl's attention. "Ozpin told us that you don't have magic here, instead you use something called a Semblance, correct?"

"Yeah! It's basically a power that's connected to one's soul. There are no two Semblance's alike. Unless for a few cases that a Semblance is passed from parents to children or something like that."

"So what's yours?" Happy asked.

"This." Ruby said, and before they knew it, she was gone and in her place were a couple of Rose petals. "Over here!" They heard, when they looked they saw that Ruby was already a couple a foot ahead of them.

"Cool! So you know how to teleport?" Happy asked.

"No, my Semblance allows me to run super-fast."

"Oh, like Jet." Natsu said.

"Who?"

"Jet is a wizard back in our guild, his magic was involved with Speed, so he was really fast." Erza answered.

"We're here." Ruby said. They were now in front of one of the many doors on the hallway.

"Yeah yeah can we go eat now?" Natsu asked in a bored tone.

"I want fish!"

"Let's just first check the room." Grumbled Erza before reaching for the door knob. "Huh?" She questioned when the door wouldn't budge.

"What's wrong?" Happy asked.

"I think the doors locked." Erza said.

"Umm… actually-" Ruby tried to explain.

"Let me try." Natsu said before going to the door and failing to open it. "Come on you stupid thing!" He yelled. "That's it!" He yelled before lighting his right hand on fire. "I'm going to burn this do-!" *Thud* Natsu said before an armoured fist meet the back of his head making him headbutt the door and fall on the ground with swirly eyes. "Tha-That's a tough door." Seeing this Ruby couldn't help but sweat drop.

"Why am I not surprised that you are part of all of this noise." A new voice said gaining their attention. When they looked they saw a short girl with white hair and icy blue eyes along with scar over her left eye. Behind her were two other girls, the first had lilac coloured eyes and golden hair while the second was a girl with black hair and amber eyes, along with a ribbon tied into a large bow on the top of her head.

"Oh hey Weiss!" Ruby said cheerfully to the white-haired girl. "What are you doing here?"

"Besides the fact that our room is right next door?" The black-haired girl asked.

"We were waiting for you before heading to the cafeteria." The blonde said. "What were you doing anyway?"

"Mr. Ozpin asked me to help the new students." Ruby said while pointing to Natsu and the others. When the others looked behind her, their eyes widened when they saw Natsu, who was still lying on the ground, with Happy poking his face, and Erza who was still standing in front of the door.

"Do you guys need any help?" The blonde asked.

"Oh, yeah, we can't seem to be able to open the door." Erza said.

"Have you tried using your scroll?" The black haired with a bow girl asked.

"The hell's a scroll?" Natsu asked standing back up.

"Isn't that a rolled-up piece of paper?" Happy asked.

"No that's toilet paper." Natsu said.

"Ignore them." Erza said while rubbing her forehead. "What was that about a scroll?"

"It's one of these things." The blonde girl said showing the trio her scroll.

"Oh, you mean this?" Erza asked re-quipping the scroll that Ozpin had given her. When she did that Ruby's eyes gained stars in them.

"You put it near the base of the doorknob and it'll open." The white-haired girl asked.

"Like this?" Erza asked managing to open the door.

"There, we managed to open the door, can we go eat now?" Natsu asked.

"*Sigh* Fine but-" Erza started but when she realized it Natsu and Happy had already ran around the corner that was further down the hall.

"Do they even know where the cafeteria is?" The black-haired girl asked.

"If there's food then I'm sure Natsu can find it. He may be an idiot but he was considered the best tracker in our guild." Erza said. "Thank you for your help, I'm Erza Scarlet by the way. And those idiots were Natsu Dragneel and Happy."

"Hey, I'm Yang Xiao Long. And this emo looking girl is Blake Belladonna." The blond said while wrapping her right arm over the black-haired girl's shoulder, earning herself a small glare from said girl.

"And I'm Weiss Schnee. I'm the Hei-"

"And we are Team RWBY!" Ruby yelled interrupting the white-haired girl who started glaring at her.

Meanwhile with Natsu

"I know it's around here somewhere." Natsu said looking around. Happy flying next to him. Natsu took another sniff of the air and smirked. "Found it!" He said before running off again.

"Natsu! Wait!" Happy yelled flying after him.

"Hurry up Happy! Before-*Thud*

*Yelp*

While talking to Happy, Natsu didn't notice where he was going, which of course led him to crash against someone making both fall. The only thing Natsu noticed was that the person was a female with long red hair.

'Crap! I ran into Erza! I'm so dead!' He though before noticing that the person had a different smell than Erza.

"What happened Natsu?" Happy asked when he reached Natsu, only to see him and a red head, who he immediately assumed was Erza, laying on the ground. "AHH! Natsu is raping Erza!"

"Shut the hell up you damn cat!" Natsu said immediately standing up. "Hey, you ok?" Natsu asked offering a hand to the red head.

"Sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going." The red head said before taking Natsu's hand.

"You don't have to apologies." Happy said. "It was Natsu's fault." He said receiving a glare from Natsu.

"Well, I'm sorry for that. I was actually looking for the cafeteria." Natsu said.

"Don't worry about it, accidents happen and- wait, aren't you the one that destroyed a big part of the Emerald Forest?"

"Wow, not even 24 hours after regaining consciousness and Natsu is already known for his destructiveness." Happy said.

"Yeah… That would be me, people always said that I caused too much destruction." Natsu said while scratching the back of his head and shocking Happy.

'D-Did he just admit that he's destructive?' Happy thought. 'OH MY GOD! IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD!'

"Wait, how do you know that?" Natsu asked.

"Everybody knows." The red head said. "We were watching the whole time."

"Really? If I knew we were being watched I would have tried to make it more entertaining." Natsu said. "Anyway, sorry again… uhh… What was your name again?"

"Oh, sorry, my names Pyrrha, Pyrrha Nikos, and if I'm correct your names are Natsu Dragneel and Happy, right?"

"Yup!" Both Natsu and Happy said.

*Growl*

The loud sound of both Natsu and Happy's stomach were heard.

"You were looking for the cafeteria, right? I was going to meet my team and friends there, I could show you the way if you want." Pyrrha said.

"Really?! Thanks!" Natsu said showing Pyrrha his toothy grin, making the redhead gain a small bit of pink in her cheeks.

"Hurray for nice Erza!" Happy said confusing Pyrrha a little before she shrugged it off and led them to the cafeteria.

Sometime later.

"Here we are." Pyrrha said as they reached the cafeteria doors.

When they walked inside Natsu noticed two things, first, the place was about, if not larger, the size of Fairy Tail's main floor, second, the moment they walked in everyone went quiet and were staring at them.

"Why are they staring at us?" Natsu asked before turning to Pyrrha. "Did you do something?"

"I think their staring at you guys." Pyrrha said slightly sweat dropping

"Us? Why?" Asked a confused Natsu.

"You did destroy part of the forest." Happy said.

"Well, if you need me I'll be with my team, come sit with us when you can." Pyrrha said before walking away while Natsu and Happy went to get some food.

Sometime later with Erza and Team RWBY.

"This is it!" Ruby told Erza when they reached the cafeteria doors.

"Hey Erza!" They heard the moment they stepped inside. When they looked they saw Natsu waving at them while sitting on a table with Happy and four other people. "What took you so long."

"Told you he'd be here." Erza said before she and the others went to grab their food. After that they sat down on Natsu's table. Erza sitting opposite of Natsu while Team RWBY sat on opposite of the others, and Happy sat on the table eating fish.

"Looks like you already met Team JNPR." Weiss said.

"Who?" Erza asked.

"It's us." A blonde guy said. "I'm Jaune Arc. Team JNPR's leader."

"I'm Pyrrha Nikos."

"The quiet guy over there is Lie Ren, we call him Ren." Jaune said pointing to a black-haired guy who nodded in acknowledgment. "And next to him is his partner-"

"Hi! I'm Nora!" The orange haired girl said interrupting Jaune. "Are you Aliens? You don't look like an Alien! How did you all those things with the fire and swords? Do you like sloths?" She asked before picking Happy and crushing him in her arms. "How come this cat can talk? How can he fly? *Gasp* Is he the Alien?!"

"NOT AGAIN!" A panicked Happy yelled.

"Nora." Ren called.

"Yes Ren?"

"Slow down."

"Ok." Nora said sitting back down, with Happy still in her arms.

"N-Natsu… Help me…" Happy begged. Seeing this Natsu smirked evilly and looked away.

"Nora does make some good points." Blake said gaining Natsu's attention, making him stare at her for a couple of seconds without saying a word.

"You smell like a cat." Natsu said making Blake's eyes go wide. This made him get a kick on his leg from under the table by Erza.

"How many times do I have to tell you? Stop telling people what they smell like!"

"Y-You're smelled her?" Weiss asked while trying to move farther away from Natsu.

"It's a side effect from being a Dragon Slayer." Was Natsu's excuse.

"Dragon Slayer?! What's that?! It sounds cool?!" Nora said.

"It's my magic. From where we're from some people are born with capacity to learn some abilities. In my case, I learned Fire Dragon Slaying. And by knowing Dragon Slaying magic you basically become a dragon yourself, not in appearance, but by magic and senses." Natsu said.

"Senses?" Blake asked.

"Yeah, Dragon Slayers have better sight, hearing and sense of smell than normal humans." Erza said.

"You mean like a Faunus?" Ruby asked.

"What's a Faunus?" Natsu asked.

"You don't have Faunus in your world?" Jaune asked making Natsu and Happy along with Erza shake their heads. "Their basically humans with animal parts, like ears or tails, look around, we can find some." Jaune said and Natsu did that, he could see that a couple of students did in fact have animal ears.

"Wow, that's so cool!" Natsu said before turning to Erza. "Hey Erza wa-"

"No Natsu, Milliana isn't a Faunus." Erza said before he could finish his sentence, already knowing the Dragon Slayer long enough to know what he was going to say.

"But she has cat ears and a tail!" Happy said.

"But she is human." Erza said.

"Then what about that guy from Lamia Scale?" Happy asked.

"He… I have no idea…" Erza said remembering a certain dog person.

"And what exactly are you by the way?" Yang asked Happy.

"I'm Happy! An Exceed!"

"Like that gives us an explanation." Weiss said.

"Believe me, it will take a while for us to tell everything you guys want to know." Natsu said.

"Don't sweat it. Thanks to you we have time." Yang said.

"I want to know what Erza's magic is!" Ruby said excitedly, not being able to hold it in anymore, gaining everyone's attention. "I-If she doesn't mind saying of course."

"I don't mind at all." Erza said with a small smile before extending her hand and summoning a sword. "My magic is called Re-Quip. It allows me to store anything I want in a Storage Dimension. I mainly use it to keep my weapons and armours, being I also able to summon them when I want."

"How many weapons do you have?" Pyrrha asked.

"Last time I checked I think I had a little over two hundred. From swords, spears, hammers, some bows… Oh, some of them are normal and some of them are magical." Erza said. With everything she said Ruby's eyes grew wider and gained more stars.

"Can you show some?!" Ruby asked.

Erza was about to respond until she was interrupted by a voice of someone in pain. "Ow! Stop you're hurting me!" When they looked they saw four guys picking on a Bunny Faunus, being the biggest guy in the group, who was wearing Armor, pulling one of her bunny ears.

"The nerve of some people." Pyrrha said.

"People like that make me sick." Yang said.

"Don't worry." Happy said gaining their attention. "Natsu's got this." The moment he said that they felt the temperature start to increase, when they looked back they saw that Natsu was already making his way to the thugs.

"I know I should stop him, but I think I'll let this one slide." Erza said, a glare fixated on the bigger guy of the group.

"Wow, that's a first." Happy said.

"Or else I'd make them lose what makes them men." Erza said making the three males (Happy included) in the table start to sweat, Happy and Jaune, who were hugging each other in fear, more, while only a little for Ren.

"See? I told you they were real!" The guy that was holding her ear said while once again pulling her ear, making her release a cry of pain, making the other three laugh, but before he could pull again he felt someone grab his arm and that the Armor around his wrists that was being held was starting to bend.

"Let her go." He heard someone say, when he looked he was face to face with a very pissed looking Natsu.

"And why should I?" He asked, before noticing that his arm was staring to get hotter.

"Wrong Answer." Natsu said before squeezing his arm harder, managing to squeeze hard enough to bend the Armor and make the guy let go of the girl. When Natsu saw that, he let go of his arm and turned to the girl. "Hey, you alright?" He asked more softly to the scared Faunus.

"Y-Yes…" She said. "Look out!" She said when she saw that guy behind Natsu was about to punch him. Natsu quickly turned around and caught his fist, and started squeezing it making the attacker fall to his knees.

"You know? It's a really coward move to attack someone from the back." Natsu said squeezing harder. "Look at me." Natsu ordered, the guy however was looking down, so Natsu squeezed harder. "I said look at me!" He ordered once again, making the guy finally look up, but when he did, he almost pissed himself, Natsu's eyed no longer had its onyx color, hell, they no longer looked human. He was now staring at a pair of golden slitted eyes, it almost looked like he was staring at the eyes of… a Dragon. "I will stop what I'm doing if you do something for me. Apologize to her."

"…"

"Didn't you hear me?" Natsu asked, squeezing his hand a little more.

"I…sor.." The guy muttered.

"Louder!"

"I'm Sorry!" The guy yelled before Natsu released his hand and his eyes went back to normal.

"Get out of here, and if I see you do Crap like this again, I'll be sure to brake a couple bones next time." He said before the other thugs grabbed the bigger guy and pulled him out of the cafeteria.

'H-He avoided fighting…' A shocked Erza thought from her seat. 'Normally Natsu would have beaten the guy up, not do something like this… I knew it… Something really is different with Natsu…'

"You ok?" Natsu asked again, his voice once again softer, not sounding like just threatened a guy a couple of seconds before.

"Y-Yes. Thanks." The girl shyly said.

"Why didn't your team help you?" Natsu asked looking around before realizing that the girl was alone.

"They forgot to do some school work and ended up having to stay in class to finish it." She shyly said.

"Well, if those jerks ever mess with you tell me and I'll beat the crap out of them!" He said punching the palm of his hand.

"Thanks, but that won't be necessary, Natsu was it?

"Wow. Everyone really does know who I am."

"Well… You did destroy the forest…"

"So, since you know my names you can at least tell us yours."

"Oh sorry, I'm Velvet Scarlatina. A Second year."

"Second year?" Natsu asked. "Then why didn't you beat him to a pulp?"

"It was the best, the Faunus are hated enough." Velvet said before she noticed the time. "Well, it was a pleasure meeting you but I have to go, classes are about to start and I still have to go to my team."

"I'll see you around then." Natsu said before he waved her goodbye and returned to his spot on the table next to the others. "What?" He asked when he noticed that all eyes were on him.

"What do you mean what? You just injured another student!" Weiss scolded.

"Was that bad?" Natsu asked.

"Bad?" Yang asked. "It was awesome! About time someone decided to actually do something against that bastard."

"You should have broken his legs!"

"Nora."

"In my opinion, you shouldn't have done anything." Weiss said.

"Wow Weiss-cream, never taught that even you would go so low as to actually support Cardin." Yang said.

"Ew, god No! I just saying that if a teacher happened to walk in he'd be in a lot of trouble."

"Don't worry about it." Happy said. "Natsu has been in so much trouble already that this wouldn't faze him. Besides, whatever Ozpin did it could never compare to … That…" He said making both him and Natsu shiver.

"What's "that"" Ruby asked.

"Whenever someone disobeyed the rules in our guild they would receive our Master's punishment… It was basically the only thing in common that everyone feared." Erza said.

"It couldn't be that bad… right?" Pyrrha asked.

"It is…" A pale looking Happy said while a sweating Natsu only nodded in agreement.

"A-Anyway! I think we should get going and show you the school." Ruby said trying to change the subject.

Later that night, dorm halls.

"And that's pretty much it." Ruby said as she, her team, Natsu, Erza and Happy, along with team JNPR, stood in front of Team Scarlet Dragon's dorm room.

"Well, I'm going to bed." Natsu said walking inside his dorm room. "See ya guys later."

"Is there anything else we should know before tomorrow." Erza asked.

"Nothing much." Yang said. "Tomorrow we're pretty much only having History with Prof. Oobleck but if it was the day after we'd have Combat Class wit-"

"Did you say Combat?!" Natsu asked bursting out of the room.

"Every other day we have combat class, where we fight against other students." Blake said.

"Can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm actually excited about school." Natsu said making both Erza and Happy look at him with eyes widened with shock.

Next day.

"Someone kill me!" Natsu loudly said before hitting his head on his desk. Not only was he wearing a pair of unconfutable clothes, he had to wake up early, which he was used too, but only to find out that Combat class was just the next day. Next to him Erza facepalmed due to his antics and the fact that literally everyone in the classroom was now starring at them, while Happy was napping on the top of the desk.

"Mister Dragneel." A man with green messy hair and a pair of glasses called. This was Doctor Oobleck. "I know that form where you came from this never happened, so you had no way of knowing this, but please, remain quiet and try to learn." He said earning a grown form Natsu, who still hasn't lifted his head. "Now." Dr. Oobleck said stopping and taking a sip from his coffee. "Has anyone here been discriminated because of your Faunus heritage?" He asked making a couple of students, including Velvet, who was in the class for some reason.

"Wow really?" Natsu said looking around. "That really doesn't make sense."

"Would you like to elaborate that Mister Dragneel?"

"Well, from my point of view, and from what I've been told, Faunus actually seem to be superior to humans."

"Oh please." The guy from yesterday said. "They're just freaks!"

"And still they seem to have abilities that humans don't that helps their survival. In our world you wouldn't last a day in the woods, I bet that even a low-class Vulcan could beat the crap out of you."

"Calm down class." Oobleck said taking a sip out of his coffee. "Now, as curious as I am about what a Vulcan is, I think its best that we go back to where we were. Which one of you can tell me what many theorists believe to be the turning point in the third year of the war?" He asked making Weiss raise her hand.

"The battle of Fort Castle." Weiss said.

"Precisely! And who can tell me the advantage that the Faunus had over General Lagoon forces?" Oobleck asked, not noticing Cardin who threw a piece of paper at a sleeping Jaune waking him up.

"Hey!" Jaune said waking up.

"Mr. Arc! Finally contributing for class! Excellent! Excellent! What is the answer?"

"Uhh… The Answer… The advantage… The Faunus." Jaune said trying to find an answer, until he looked pass Oobleck to see Pyrrha who was giving him hand gestured about the answer. "Uhh… Binoculars!" He said sure of himself making some of the students laugh.

"Very funny ."

"That wasn't the answer?" Natsu asked confused.

"No Natsu." Erza said pinching the bride of her nose.

"Mr. Winchester! Perhaps you could share your thoughts on the subject!"

"Well, I know it's a lot easier to train an animal than a soldier." Cardin said.

"You're not the most opened minded of individuals are you Cardin?" Pyrrha asked.

"What you got a problem?" Cardin asked.

"No, I have the answer." Pyrrha said. "It's Night Vision. Many Faunus are known to have nearly perfect sight in the dark."

"General Lagoon was inexperienced and tried to attack the Faunus in their sleep." Blake said. "His massive army was outmatched, and the General was captured. Perhaps if he paid attention in class he wouldn't have been remembered as such a failure." She said looking at Cardin.

"Burn!" Natsu said making Cardin stand up.

"Mr. Winchester, please take your seat." Oobleck said, while some students were laughing, being Jaune and Natsu the most noticeable. "You, Mr. Arc and Mr. Dragneel can see me after class for additional readings." Oobleck said.

"What did I do?!"
