Y/N POV
The very next day I ride out on a bullhead to Beacon. I smile enjoying the view of Vale from above. It's interrupted by a girl's voice.
Girl: "Let me go!!!"
I turn seeing a girl in red in a head lock by a girl in yellow.
Yellow: "Say the magic word."
Red: "I mean it, let me go!"
Yellow: "Not even close."
I chuckle walking to them.
Y/N: "Hi."
They look at me.
Red: "Hello."
Yellow: "Hey."
Y/N: "Am I... interrupting something?"
Yellow: "No."
She lets go of red. Red then swiftly slaps the back of yellow's head. Yellow shows no reaction holding out her hand.
Yang: "Name's Yang. Pleasure to meet you."
Y/N: "Y/N."
We shake hands. She points over her shoulder at red.
Yang: "That runt over there is my baby sister Ruby."
Ruby: "Hello."
She does an adorable wave. I break the hand shake when Yang looks me over.
Yang: "Say, you're a bit on the young side. How'd you get into Beacon?"
Ruby now looks me over.
Ruby: "Are you seventeen?"
Y/N: "Fifteen actually."
They show shock.
Yang: "How the heck you even get in?"
Y/N: "Ozpin himself let me in early."
Yang: "Impressive."
Ruby: "No kidding. He must see something in you."
Y/N: "I don't think he'd let me join if he didn't."
The doors open allowing us to exit. I marvel at the scope of Beacon smiling.
Y/N: "So it begins. My journey to the top. And all with a single step."
I take a step. But I quickly fall onto my face tripping over something.
Y/N: "Ow."
I rub my head when I'm met with a voice.
Voice: "Watch where you're going."
I turn seeing a girl in white.
Y/N: "It was an accident."
White: "That's no excuse. This' highly sensitive dust. Mined and purified straight from the Schnee Dust Mine. If agitated then you could've blown us sky high."
I get to my feet.
Y/N: "Listen Miss..."
Weiss: "Weiss Schnee."
Y/N: "Weiss Schnee. I would never do anything to blow people up. I just wasn't paying attention to what I was doing. I promise it won't ever happen again."
Weiss: "It better not. Because if it does, I-"
Voice: "Lay off him."
A girl in black makes herself known.
Weiss: "And you are?"
Black: "Someone who won't let you berate a kid over a simple accident."
They engage in a stare down. Weiss sighs grabbing her stuff.
Weiss: "Just try to be more careful next time okay?"
I nod while she walks away. When she leaves I look at black.
Y/N: "Thank you."
She smiles.
Black: "No problem."
She then gets closer.
Black: "Just try to stay out of trouble okay?"
My cheeks heat up turning red.
Y/N: "Yes mam."
I turn away to hide my redness. She giggles which only makes it worse.
Black: "You got a name?"
Y/N: "Y/N. Y/N L/N."
Blake: "I'm Blake. Blake Belladonna."
She begins walking away.
Blake: "See you around Y/N."
She finally leaves allowing my redness to cease.
Voice: "Looks like someone's got a way with the ladies."
I turn seeing a blond haired boy.
Y/N: "What're talking about?"
Boy: "Nothing."
He walks to me holding out his hand.
Boy: "I'm Jaune Arc."
I shake his hand.
Y/N: "Y/N L/N."
We break the handshake.
Y/N: "So... where exactly are we supposed to go?"
Jaune: "Follow me."
I walk with him. Along the way we talk.
Jaune: "So you were personally picked by Ozpin after you stopped a robbery?"
Y/N: "Pretty much."
Jaune: "You're lucky."
Y/N: "Doesn't seem that way sometimes."
Jaune: "How so?"
Y/N: "Imagine not having neither a semblance nor an aura. Really makes you feel like a outcast."
Jaune: "I know what you mean."
Y/N: "You an outcast too?"
Jaune: "Sorta. Everyone said I didn't have potential. Said I'd never make it in this world. But I proved them wrong by training like crazy and acing my entrance exam with flying colors."
I smile.
Y/N: "Then to us. The outcasts."
We bump fists.
