A week had went by and we received our acceptance letters through the mail. Mako managed to get in by raking in some rescue points. How she did this was by pulling people out from rubble and giving them some of her lunch. In total she got an even 100 rescue points. More than anyone else. In the letters it said that we would also stay in dorms on campus so we had to pack our stuff.

And today was the day we left for school. Mako's mom was crying tears of joy and hugged us all tightly as Mako shared tears as well. Ryuko and I were just there trying our best to calm them down. With that over with, we went to the bullhead station and this time it was filled with less people than before.

This time around the parents of the new students were seeing them off with tears in their eyes and hugged them tightly. The bullhead showed up and we entered then flew to the academy. We got there pretty quickly and stepped out the ship.

Mako:"Okay! So those letters also came with a paper showing off what our locker numbers are and what classes we have. Our homeroom class is Class 1-A!"

"Then we should drop off our clothes in our lockers."

Ryuko:"Alright."

We walked inside the main building and saw the bustling school life. Countless students loitered around with their friends as others actually tried to get where they needed to be. Mako was staring at everything with wide eyes and with good reason too. Even the inside of the school looked huge with ceilings too high to even reach. And the building itself just looked so pristine and elegant. Not something I would expect from a high school. But to be fair, it's a pretty rich school to afford it's own plot of land away from the main city.

Mako:"Aha! We found our lockers. I'm 124. Ryuko, what's yours?"

Ryuko:"125. And you, (Y/n)?"

"126."

Mako:"Yippee! We're together!"

We chuckled at her cheerful nature and put away our stuff but held onto our bags.

"Should we grab some breakfast?"

Mako:"Duh! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day after all."

Ryuko:"Alright."

We walked together to the cafeteria which took some time, but there were a few signs here and there that helped us get to where we needed to be. The place was pretty packed and the line was long.

"Crap. This may take a while."

Ryuko:"Forget this. I'm going to wait around in the classroom. I'll catch you later."

Mako:"Aww man. Oh well! I brought some sweet bread for us to munch on anyway. Wait up Ryuko!"

The two of them left me alone in the cafeteria as I looked all around. For some reason something inside me was just feeling nostalgic. Even though I've never been here before. I shook my head and got out the lunch line to go walk around the school for a bit.

As I did I was going nowhere in particular, but for some reason I just knew exactly where I was and where other places were. I stopped when I came upon several displays housing trophies and awards. I looked at some and saw that they were academic awards and a few from certain teams reaching first place in the Vytal Festival Tournament. And there were group photos of some huntsmen and of several pro heroes. However, there was one glass case that had a large curtain draped over it.

I stared at it for what felt like eternity before I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"Ah!"

I jumped and turned around to see Prof. Ozpin.
