RWBY - New horizons (Inconsistent Updates)

chapter 3: initiation part 2

Emerald forest
3rd person p.o.v.

Everyone ran away once the deathstalker burst into the clearing. Everyone, that is, except Morgiana. She glanced at her protective sleeve, said," well, no point hiding it now..." and tore it off, revealing the intricate light blue markings covering her left forearm. They glowed an eerie blue as Morgiana froze the deathstalker in place and conjured an icy one-handed shortsword in one hand, and a round shield in the other. Rushing around, she dealt blow after blow to the trapped deathstalker, prompting Victor to say," she's kicking that thing's ass!" Rowena nodded, saying, " I'm impressed." Damon, however, said," the fool... she's not going to be able to hold it for much longer, and once that happens, she won't have enough aura to keep the shield and the sword going at the same time. She'll have to drop one or the other." True to his words, the deathstalker broke free, and Morgiana dispelled the shield, instead choosing to reinforce the sword, changing it into a two-handed broadsword. She surged forward, and landed a solid hit on the deathstalker's head, cracking the mask. This served to enrage the deathstalker, causing it to smack Morgiana into a boulder. As Morgiana weakly stood, favoring her right leg and with blood dripping from her head onto her face, Damon said," shit. This is bad. She can't control it properly, probably because she never had a teacher." And rushed out onto the battlefield, snapping his fingers as he made a downward slashing motion with his hand, the marks on his right arm glowing bright orange as he shouted," return to the ashes!" At his words, a column of fire slammed into the crack on the deathstalker's head, incinerating it. As it shrieked in agony, he turned to Morgiana, and said," we need to have a conversation about your Ability." Morgiana nodded, panting for breath. With Damon supporting her, the four of them returned to the clifftop overlooking the forest.

Professor Pine said," Damon Forge. Victor Pine. Rowena Schnee. Morgiana Dvalin. The four of you collected the golden rooks, and are now a team. You will be led by... Victor  Pine!" The crowd all clapped for him, and Damon shouted over the noise, " Congratulations, Captain Pinecone!" Victor shot him a glare, but his wide grin made it clear he was too happy to be angry for any length of time. Professor Pine said," You will have to decide on a team name, and submit it to me for entry into the system." Victor nodded, and they went to their dorm room. Upon opening the door, Damon glanced inside, and said," bunk beds? I guess space is at a premium, then..." Victor said," Actually, You have my Mom to thank for that. Apparently her team made bunk beds to save space, and they were considered by many to be incredibly dangerous, so... Dad decided to just incorporate bunk beds into the redesign plans. Saved him a few hundred thousand lien, that's for sure." Damon said, "Dibs on bottom left bunk." Before Victor could open his mouth to protest, Damon had already begun unpacking his sheets and blanket, and making his bed. Morgiana spoke up and said," so... why were you and Rowena running from a deathstalker, anyway?" Rowena groaned, faceplanted onto her bed, and said," I dont wanna remember..." Damon said," Victor?" Victor sighed, and said," well, it all started with us literally running into each other in the woods...

Victor had been running from the deathstalker for at least 5 miles, and his legs felt like they were going to fall off at any given moment. Suddenly, he heard a shriek, then he ran into and knocked over a highly irate Rowena Schnee. Getting up, he dusted himself off, catching his breath. Rowena said," hey, Pine, watch where you're going next time-" a loud roar made both of them jump as the deathstalker tore through two trees on its way into the small clearing, almost launching them skyward with the amount of force it hit them with. They both looked at each other, and said," run." And turned and ran until they saw a huge clearing, the deathstalker in hot pursuit.

Damon let out a low whistle. Rowena groaned, and said," now you know why I didn't want to speak of it again." Victor said," alright. Names. We need one for our team. Any ideas?" Rowena said," I'm fine with whatever, so long as it isnt vulgar or ridiculously stupid." Morgiana said," team Ghost?"
Damon said," I like it, but team Wraith has a nice ring to it, too... what about you, cap?" Victor said," well, I have one... not sure if you guys will like it, though..." Rowena, from her perch on her top bunk, said," spit it out!" Damon raised an eyebrow at her, and said," while I do agree with you, Rowena, that wasn t the greatest way to put it." Morgiana said," come on, Victor. Let's hear it." Victor sighed, and said," ok. Team Specter." Damon, Rowena, and Morgiana all turned to look at him, and he said," see? It's stupid, isn't it?" They all blinked, and Damon said," no, dude. It's just-" Morgiana said,"its almost exactly like what me and Damon were thinking. Just a little bit different." Victor said," ok. It's decided. Team Specter it is. Now get some sleep. We start classes tomorrow."

A/N

Next update will be within the next 2 weeks. I'm sorry, but I have decided to not accept requests for OC' s for the time being. I feel like I need to develop the story more before I can add too many new characters. I'm also going to revise Damon's intro. Until next time! I dont own RWBY.
