INT. HEADMASTER'S OFFICE - DAY

The clock gears are ticking above the office. At the desk, there are two people, sitting across from each other.

HEADMASTER ASTRO, 40s, the headmaster of Beacon Academy, was the one behind the desk. He was holding papers in his hands.

ASHEN PINE, 18, a tall and lanky bookworm. His fluffy black ombre ponytail is draped down his back and his bangs framed his face like puppy dog ears. He is all bandaged up. His green and gray hazel eyes are staring at the person across from him.

HEADMASTER ASTRO: I have some questions about what today?

ASHEN: Did I not fill something out in the registration paperwork for the entrance exam? Don't worry about it. I don't want--

HEADMASTER ASTRO: Why did you fill this out?

Ashen shifts in his seat.

ASHEN (confuses): Excuse me?

HEADMASTER ASTRO: Why only the day of the entrance exam did you fill this out?

Headmaster Astro shakes the papers.

HEADMASTER ASTRO: The rest of your siblings had them done months ago. Why now a sudden interest?

ASHEN: Well...

EXT. BEACON'S COURTYARD - DAY (FLASHBACK)

The sun is shining over the courtyard as eager testers wait.

Ashen Pine was standing in a group with three other people.

SELENE ROSE, 17, confidant and talented, except when she's nervous, she can get really nervous. Her black hair ends in a pink fade. Her face was freckled. Her orange eyes are shaking. Her capelet is held together with a silver clasp with a gravity stone in the center.

Selene is clinging to her weapon: A scythe called Over The Roses. The blade gets shot off and floats with the gravity dust. The snatch becomes a staff.

SUMMER ROSE THE SECOND, 15, a cocky bragger has the skills back it up. Her short hair is styled in an undercut. She is the spitting image of RUBY ROSE, but more punk. She was leaning against her weapon: a shotgun scythe called Red Rose Shot.

EMI SCHNEE-ARC, 17, a smug and standoffish girl. She has long gold hair that matches her gold armor pieces. Under her armor pieces is a long purple dress with a flower pattern sewn on the skirt. Her scabbard was attached to her hip. Emi's weapon: a sword that snaps out into a whip that's called: Flower Drop.

ASHEN (comforting): Selene, you're going to do great. You have been preparing since forever.

SUMMER (mockingly at SELENE): You're gonna fail if you keep freaking out, sis.

ASHEN (sighs): Summer.

SUMMER: What? It's true.

EMI (sighs at ASHEN): Neither of my half-sisters can control their gifts. Selene's semblance is a glass cannon. Summer can't use her silver eyes.

SUMMER (anger): If you gonna crap about me, say it to me!

Summer gets in Emi's face.

SUMMER And why do you keep calling us half-siblings? We all grew up together!

EMI (smug): What? It's true.

Summer's face turns red from anger.

SELENE (mutters): This again.

Summer whips her head around to Selene.

SUMMER: Oh! Now you say something, Selene!

Selene takes a step back.
