Chapter VI. Initiation

Third Person View
Dawn had broken over the horizon of Beacon Academy and the city of Vale; numbers of hunters and huntresses were waking up early from their deep slumber - receiving their good night's sleep and rubbing the exhaustion out of their eyes. One student however was currently waking up as well, but had came eye-to-eye with his closest companion; Nora Valkyrie. Blinking a few times, Lie Ren found Nora standing over him; purple met cyan. Nora was energetic and hyperactive, and well-prepared for the day with a gleaming smile. Nora had short, orange hair, cyan eyes, fair skin, and a slim figure, despite how much she enjoyed Pancakes. She wore a white shirt with a small heart-shaped cutaway, a black collared vest with silver, light blue, and red trimming and a pink hammer, and lightning bolt emblem on her back. A blue bow was tied on her back, she had pink fingerless gloves, a pink skirt, white sleeves, and white sneakers with a secondary pink trimming. Sheathed on her back was her weapon; Magnhild - a large, transformable, two-handed hammer that transforms into a grenade launcher. Nora always had an energetic and hyperactive personality, but could be fierce and determinative at certain times despite her innocent and child-like appearance. As for now, she was very eager to have Ren up and ready for the day. "Wake up sleepy butt!" She shot off somewhere as Ren was beginning to get up. Sure, he may not have been energetic and hyperactive as Nora, but he couldn't be mad at her for waking him up so early. Ren had magenta eyes, long, black hair with a magenta streak that was tied back into a ponytail, and fair skin. He was wearing a dark green, diagonally-buttoned, long-sleeved tailcoat with red lining and black and gold trimming and pink cuffs, white trousers, and black shoes. He sighed as he lent up from his sleeping bag, and Nora had reappeared. "It's morning, it's morning, it's morning, it's morning" she happily sang with a joyful grin.

Ren sighed once more and decided to get the day over and done with; Initiation day - the day to determine his with in the school. Nora and Ren had gone off to the restrooms where they readied themselves; Ren brushing his teeth, as Nora held her toothbrush one hand, and a tub of toothpaste in the other. "I cannot believe we have been at Beacon for a full 24 hours" Nora exclaims, "Not like I expected us to get kicked out or anything. I mean, you're the more perfect student than I am, and I'm, well, I'm me! But it's just crazy you know?-"
They had returned to the ballroom to gather their belongings and clean out the room. Ren was tightening the straps of his sleeping bag to prevent it from unrolling, and Nora was brushing her hair, whilst continuing her mutual conversation with her friend. "We've been friends for sooo long. What're the odds that we'd still be together. Well, not together together, and I'm not saying you're not handsome. Well you are handsome, but that'd be weird, right?" No response from the magenta eyed boy; continuing to pull the straps of his sleeping bag.
"Right, what was I thinking?" Nora asks herself; a slice of pancake in her mouth as she spoke. They had now gone to the dining area and grabbed plates of Nora's favourite breakfast - pancakes. "But still, I hope we end up on the same team together." Nora had slurped the pancake up and eaten it within one bite. With realization of an idea, she raised a finger. "Oh! We should come up with some sort of plan so we end up on the same team together. What if we bribe the Headmaster. No, that won't work, he runs the school-" she brings a finger to her chin.
They proceeded down to the Locker room, which Ms. Goodwitch brought them to yesterday (with some minor inconvenience yesterday with Jaune stuck into a locker). Ren entered his locker to proceed and grab his two pistols - Stormflower, as Nora continued her bickering. "I know! We'll have some sort of signal, like a distress signal!" She gasps, "a secret signal so we can find each other in the forest. Can you imitate a sloth?" She asks. "Nora..." He finally spoke calmly. "Yes Ren?" Ren held his pistols up before they were contracted down into his sleeves with ease. "I don't think Sloths make a lot of noise" he states. Nora takes a moment to understand his statement, before a smile grew once again on her face with realization, and she exclaimed "that's why it's perfect! no one will suspect we're working together!" He shuts his locker door and proceeded to leave with his childhood friend. "Come on Nora, let's go."
"Well not, together together" she states once more with a giggle and skip away.
