Jm=jumpmaster
I just finished boarding the C130j Hercules aircraft and was finishing putting on my seatbelt. I look around scared and excited as this was going to be a rough jump. Ive been hearing rumours of this jump being cancelled all day, but here i was all kitted up and on the plane. I checked my gear making sure all of it was tight one last time. I turn and watch the ramp close and hear the sound of the locks closing as it locks. My fire team partner looks at me and smiles showing a hint of fear in his eyes. I knew what i was doing and it never get easier i am the first man out the door, the position i hated the most because i stood in the door looking out into nothing for the longest. All that time to think about what i was about to do. I watch as the jump masters clamber around making sure everybody's good to go. He reaches me and goes how you doing jumper. "Good jump master" i reply. He finishes his check and taps me on the shoulder and says have a good jump y/n. "Airborne!" I yell out. I lean my head back and try to grab some rest as i feel the plane start to move.

I fire team partner shakes me awake. Suddenly i hear.jm:"LOOK THIS WAY!". I turn and look at the jump master. Jm: SEAT BELTS OFF! I undo my seat belt calmly and move my feet around to get the blood flowing again. Jm: GET READY! The whole company moves there feet in unison slamming them down at once creating a loud bang. JM:STAND UP! I stand up and turn around and kneel down putting the seat up so i have more room to move i then take out my static line and hold it up by the cable waiting for the next word of command. JM: HOOK UP! I hooked up my static line to the cable. JM: CHECK STATIC LINE! I began the process of checking my static line making sure everything was good to go and nothing was broken. JM: CHECK YOUR EQUIPMENT! I then started going through all of my things helmet good, canopy release good, harness good, reserve chute good, release bite good, leg straps good, and lastly but most importantly my groin. Y/n thoughts: i don't want a repeat of my first jump shivers are sent down my spine as i remember that horrible feeling. The JM's do their final checks on all of us and move back to the doors. They got the nod from the loadmasters that the jump was a go. They open the door. I feel my body start to fill with adrenaline as i watch. I now know how i am getting off this plane. I begin to walk closer to the door and the jm looks at me and smiles. He gets a tap on his shoulder and the load master says something to him. He looks at all of us and yells: "WINDS TO HIGH RACETRACK!"  I sigh hating this, as this meant the plane was circling around for another pass.y/n thoughts: just get me off this fucking plane already this shit is killing me.

TIME SKIP 10 mins of suffering later

JM: WINDS 13! Y/n thoughts: this is going to be a rough jump. JM: STANDBY. I take a step throw my static line and step on to the jump platform. I get a tap on the shoulder. I turn around and see the JM rip off my private rank and put a corporal rank on my chest. He then says have a good jump as the light turns to green. JM: GO!!!!!! I take one last look at the light as i was raising my foot i see the light turn to red meaning no jump. I am already committed at this point. I jump into the nothingness watching the plane fly away as i fell waiting for my chute to deploy.

I feel that heartwarming feeling as it began to deploy. Y/n: right on time as per usual. I began my checks making sure nothing was wrong with my canopy. All good, alright i take a look around seeing no one else in the air. I look down and see some weird black fog rolling in. Y/n thoughts: dammit this must've been why they changed the light. I grab risers but the wind is pushing me to hard and i descended right into the black fog. I feel weird as i enter it not know what it was. I had no other choice than to ride it out. As i break through the underlayer of the fog i look down. Y/n thoughts I don't remember being this high up i should've hit the ground already. Your began scanning around looking for anything familiar. I turn and look just in time to see a huge giant bird coming right for me. Y/n thought:what is that ive never seen a bird that big! It must've been as big as the planeI did the only thing i could think of. I reached for my c7 and load a mag. I took aim and fired at the giant bird . My shot hit it right in its right wing and i watch it veer upwards and its claws rip a few a hole in my canopy. Y/n thoughts: Jesus christ that was close but now im falling even faster now, im living up to that airborne life the faster i fall the faster i get to kick some ass!! I see the ground rapidly approaching so i drop my equipment and prep your self to land. Y/n thoughts: this is going to be a rough landing. I hit the ground and then everything went black.

A/n: i havent figure out a semblance nor a rwby verse weapon yet so any input on the story or on ideas please don't hesitate, this is my first story and i wrote this right before i went to bed so yeah.
