(Y/n pov)

I woke up after sleeping pretty comfortably for once knowing I wouldn't have to go to work in that death trap called a dust mine but a sad knowing that the money I made from it wouldn't go towards helping the orphanage. I looked out the window and saw that the sun was shining it was morning and that we were passing over a city I looked out admiring the cityscape as we flew over head then It beacon academy came into view. I was in awe about how pristine it was I knew I would end up marveling at it but I never thought my expectations for it were blown away when I saw it.

(Y/n):"so this is my new life huh? Sure beats the orphanage being big and shiny that for sure"

The bullhead came in for a Landing at the designated landing pad so that we could disembark with discretion and have as few people stand by to gawk at who and what was being dropped off at beacon. I the doors opened and I walked out I immediately got hit with the air quality from this place it seemed so much cleaner than the slightly smoggy air from the dust mines that I was used to I extended my arms and legs and stretched out as far as i could while inhaling the fresh air after sitting for so long a this felt divine.

Ozpin:"taking in the new scenery (Y/n)" I heard professor ozpin say from behind me as He walked up next to me sipping from a mug he had with him.

(Y/n):"yeah I gotta say I knew this place was going to be big after all the pictures I've seen on the news broadcasts, I dreamed about being able to come see it but I never thought it'd come true"

Ozpin:"well is seems your dreams have finally been realized now that your soon to be enrolled"

This threw me off guard and I turned to face him with a puzzled look

(Y/n):"soon to be? I thought you already finalized my entry into the academy professor"

Prof Goodwitch:"that is a misunderstanding that must be rectified now" said professor Goodwitch as she walked up next to professor and faced me "it's true that professor ozpin said that you could attend as a student and have a comfortable place to stay as well as have training to become a official huntsman but before any of that can take place you must first pass the schools intimation test"

(Y/n):"intiation test? I thought I was already going to be admitted into beacon since coming here was the idea of headmaster Elric"

Prof Goodwitch:"unfortunately it would appear rather strange if we simply admitted a new student who's had little experience with actual combat training to attend so I'm afraid you must go through an initiation before your actually able to formally enroll"

I began to feel a nervous sure I built my sword Grimm buster because I wanted to become a huntsman so that I could be taken seriously in this world where Faunus are treated like second class citizens and so I could be paid well enough to be able to send money back to the orphanage to make their lives much easier but he was telling the truth I hadn't had much practice with it and Grimm buster has a special thermal blade I added to give it an extra kick but I'd never actually used in combat.ozpin could see that I was getting nervous and he put his hand on my shoulder.

Ozpin:"not to worry (Y/n) should you not pass the initiation I have no intention of deeming you a failure and kicking you out you'll be allowed to stay on school grounds regardless of the outcome"

I felt a bit relived with what ozpin said and I smiled a bit then I saw RZ approach from the behind the bullhead which meant that he'd finally been unloaded

RZ:"pilot my scanner sensed your distressed so I came asses the cause of your mental instability"

(Y/n):"oh it's nothing RZ it just something that I have to deal has me a bit worried is all"

RZ:"understood also I my communication system is back online and I am now able to communicate via electronic systems to you"

(Y/n):"oh really that's sounds useful enough but I don't own a scroll so I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to make use of it yet"

Ozpin:"well seeing as that's the case you'll be provided one before you take your initiation a good huntsman must make use of all of their tools they have at their disposal after all"

Then a thought occurred to me I and I gave big smile

(Y/n):"so then I guess that means that I get to take RZ with me into my initiation a good huntsman uses all his tools at his disposal after all" I said with a smug grin

Prof Goodwitch:"I afraid that's not possible the initiation is meant to hone your skills and prove you have what it takes to become a huntsman"

(Y/n):"but RZ and I are bonded and how are we suppose to strengthen that bond without being able to properly rely on each other during s combat situation"I shot back at her

She gave me a look of spite probably realizing that I made a very compelling argument and thought it I've for a second until she turned to professor ozpin

Prof Goodwitch:"professor I believe you know best what needs to be done in this type of situation seeing as your headmaster and all I'm sure your intellect knows best"

(Y/n):(thinking)"ok that sounded like she was sucking up to him" I thought while I rolled my eyes

Professor ozpin took a brief Moment to think about it while he took a sip of from his coffee mug before speaking out his decision

Ozpin:"(Y/n) is correct a proper huntsman should be able to use all their tools to their advantage in any given situation to ensure success in their current mission..."

I gave professor Goodwitch a smug look as she shot me a sour look

Ozpin:"However Glynda you are also correct,(Y/n) you have had much experience with combat practice therefore relying on RZ for support will make you lose valuable experience that you could certainly use"

I had look of surprise on my face when he said that as professor Goodwitch simply smiled and fixed her glasses

Ozpin:"therefore I believe a comprise is in order"he said as he looked towards RZ "RZ are you capable of providing support to (Y/n) through informational means even if you aren't near him?"

RZ:"affirmative providing logistics support to the pilot is another form of aid that I am capable of"

Ozpin:"there you have it well provide (Y/n) with a scroll before the initiation meanwhile during the initiation RZ will be stationed nearby and provide intel on the terrain and any Grimm to (Y/n) while not physically interfering to allow him to gain the necessary experience through combat that he will undoubtedly require"

I thought it over and as much as I didn't sit well with me it did sound like a pretty good idea

(Y/n):"ok I guess I can work with that"

Prof Goodwitch:"yes that does sound like an appropriate learning experience"

Ozpin:"well then if everything's settled then let's be off we have much to before you get your first taste of fighting for your life"

(Y/n):"Right o- wait WHAT?!?!?!"
