A/N: All right, the series has started to receive some traction. In less than two days, this story has gotten 48 views and has been added to 4 reading lists. Honestly I never thought that would happen, so thanks for reading. Again, both positive and negative feedback are welcome, so feel free to comment. Thank you, and on with the story.

Your POV:

After I woke up, I honestly felt a lot better. However, I also felt very nervous. This is my first day at any type of combat school. I arrived without a single day of training, just because a crazy general tried to turn me into a super weapon, and the headmaster had a hunch about the potential I had. I got up and changed into a (favorite color) hoodie with (second favorite color) sweatpants. I was never the athletic or exercising type, I just liked how the clothes were always comfortable.

What got me thinking was that, according to both Qrow and Ironwood, I had some crazy fighting potential. I guess they overlooked the fact that I've never held a weapon before, and don't even have a full grasp of all my powers. Nevertheless, it felt good to get out of that facility. I got out of the room and made my way towards Ozpin's office. As I walked I started getting thoughts. Ozpin said that I would just join an existing team, so I really hope my social-awkardness doesn't get in the way of that. I also don't know if I'll be able to explain my situation to the other kids here. First off, according to Qrow, my powers are my only method of combat since I'm not familiar with any other weapon. I'm not sure if I can just say its a semblance, as I have never heard of someone who can fight using only a semblance. Second of all, I still can't fully control it. If not for Qrow, I probably would have murdered everyone at that base. If I do lose control again, it'll probably make me some type of social outcast, even by faunus standards. Not that I have something against them...

Cardin POV:

As I was walking down the hallway, feeling particularly good after giving Velvet an excessive ear pulling, I saw a new kid in the hallway. He looked really young, as if he is still in his first year of combat school. He kept muttering about losing control and making friends. To be frank, he was pissing me off. Either you say what's on your mind or you keep it to yourself. So I decided to make myself acquainted with him.

"Hey new kid. Aren't you a little young to be hear, small fry(A/N: Really ironic considering he's only a couple inches shorter than you). Quit talking to yourself, it's bothering me."

"Oh, sorry. I thought that was in my head."

"Well keep it in there, otherwise you and I are going to have some major complications, and I am pretty sure you don't want that, got it?"

"Yes." He replied rather meekly, showing me that I was doing a good job of intimidating him.

"That's yes sir to you."

"Yes sir"

"Good" I then preceded to walk past him, giving him a quick shove to the the ground.

Your POV:

I'm really glad that's the last I'll see of him(A/N:Just wait until Jaundice), I thought to myself as I saw a hand outstretched to me. I looked up and saw it belonged to a girl with black hair, a bow, and amber eyes.

"You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"I'm really sorry. If it makes you feel any better, he treats everyone that way."

"Honestly, that just sounds awful"

"It is, unfortunately, the rules of the public educational system prevent people from giving bullies like him what they deserve."
