I stepped off the jet and looked around, so this was Beacon Academy. The academy where my foster father went to and graduated at the top of his class. A place where I could make a name for myself and throw away my past. I checked the map on my scroll taking notice of how expansive the school seemed. I was filled to the brim with excitement though if you looked at my face you could never tell.
It was- "Out of my way, peasant!" A high pitched voice rang out. I turned to see a beautiful girl with a flowing lavender dress and a purple hilted rapier at her waist walking towards the entrance of the school with her butler behind her carrying her luggage. Her features were like those of a goddess. Her hair shined in the sun and she looked like every man's dream. "M-Miss Ramana please slow down," His dog tail flicked nervously as he hurried to catch up to his mistress. She looked familiar almost like she was every where like the Schnees's heiress. She looked like the kind of girl to have everyone else do her job for her. I adjusted my fedora looking around and making sure that noone else was around.

I took another step forward and crashed into a guy in full knight's armor. His hair was a bright orange and his gauntlets were shining in the sunlight. Around the wrist were gems of four distinct colors- Red, Blue, White and Purple- that switched positions every now and then. It was a site to see just because you don't see most weapons that weren't swords or guns. "Uh...where is auditorium?" His accent was heavy and his speech was broken. I guess he just moved here but where was his luggage? Did he have any at all? "I don't know myself...it's my first year here to be honest." He nodded and picking up a duffel bag went about his way asking the rich female for directions. She seemed pissed at something because she just walked out without helping. What I would give to not be teamed up with her.

Alright let's see if I can not crash into anyone else, I thought taking another step and knocking down...a loli? Her short hair bounced as she fell and her eyes were the color of fire. "Watch where you're going!" She stood up and dusted herself off ever so pissed.
This was the craziest morning since coming to Vale. First I piss off a rich bitch, then I can't help a foreigner and finally I piss off a loli...like today just wasn't my day.

If I ended up being with those three then I could kiss my academy fantasy goodbye. "Did you hear...the White Fang were at it again." "Oh did they break into the Schnees or the Ramanas this time?" "Ramanas and rumor is that they're so far in debt they might close down leaving the Schnee Dust Company as the only maker." I sighed, the White Fang just didn't know when to stop and that scared me. I quit because they weren't just fighting for equality but for an eradication of all humans. They were the reason faunus had a bad rep nowadays and more of a reason to quit.

Glancing at the letter I looked towards the school,"So we're suppose to go to the auditorium huh?" I turned to the loli to find her gone and hurried in. Upon entering the school I saw many people socializing...must be returning students. One team I saw was a group of faunus playing a dice game. Another team was all female and looked to be a high ranking team by the crowd around them. "Amber, it's so good to see you again!" One of the girls said with a glee. "Yes, yes...good to see you all too but this girl really needs her beauty sleep so if you'll excuse me," She edged out and bumped straight into me,"Oh a new student huh? Guess you want my autograph now since you just saw that crowd." I shook my head and replied,"Where's the auditorium?" She sighed angrily and pointed to a long hallway,"Down that hallway, take a left and keep going straight until you come to giant double doors hon but this is a once in a lifetime chance since I'm free." I just ignored her marking the position on my map and went about my way. Who knew Beacon could be so confusing?

I found the auditorium by the time it was almost full and found a seat near the back squashed between the Ox and the rich girl. The loli from earlier was here but I guess she found a seat up front. Glancing towards the Ox I saw he had a signed paper and laughed a bit inside, I guess he couldn't escape the red head's presence.

A silver haired man walked up to the mic and cleared his throat,"Welcome students to a brand new year I am the headmaster, Ozpin. Today we are here to congratulate those of you accepted to this prestigious school." The Ox beside me was leafing through what looked like a pocket dictionary while the girl just leafed through her binder looking for something. "Now you all aren't technically students yet but if you pass the initiation then you will become full fledged students studying to make the world a better place now I'll let Miss Glinda take the mic." He walked away and you could hear a pin drop...that's how silent it was. Everyone must've been surprised by the news that we weren't students yet. Glinda cleared her throat and spoke,"The initiation will begin at noon sharp...those who don't make it will automatically fail and be sent home now enjoy yourselves and see you all tomorrow." She walked away feeding everyone more tension.

Tomorrow would be pass or fail and I needed to pass. I left the auditorium following the others and saw a party had been set up. I guess people were trying to calm their nerves but this seemed to increase others. Only time would tell if I would a full student or get sent home.
