The next day, Haru and the others woke up early and immediately went to the locker room to get their weapons. They are still confused about what this whole initiation is and what is happening. Deciding to leave all questions for later, they grabbed their gear and walked out of the room.
When they got to the cliffside, Ozpin could be seen standing there.

"Hello students, your objective is a relic on the South side of the forest. Go there, collect one and bring it back, from there teams will be assigned. Do not hesitate to kill anything that crosses you or you will die. You must use your own landing strategy, we do not supply parachutes. Any questions?" Ozpin said sternly.

"You serious?" You thought nervously.

Nobody raised their hands and Tokaku got launched off the cliffside first.
When you got launched second, you immediately tensed your back muscles and put some concentration into the Icarus Globes. after a few seconds, you felt something pull in your upper back. It hurt you for a short time, but it worked. The Icarus Globes are working.

The wings, just made out of sharpened, armoured Titanium plates. Imagine this design, just with a more futuristic touch to it.

As you plummeted, you flapped the wings which did slow your fall. When you hit the ground you used the wings to shield you from the front and the back as you equipped your PS90, slowly moving the wings aside when the coast is clear. You boosted up into the air and got a beat on where Chitaru landed, so you dropped to the ground and sprinted in her direction. When you arrived there, you could see a man with a gun hiding in the trees. He is not a student and you saw him raise the gun at her.

"Get down!" You yelled as you dashed in between her and the man, shielding her with the Icarus Globes. He opened fire and the bullets ricocheted off the Titanium. You spun around and shot him in the knees, then Chitaru took out her Glock and shot him again.

"Great... Now I'm going to get locked away for murder!" She stressed.

"No you won't. Remember this whole thing is being recorded? He shot first so if anything you defended your own life." You said, getting a look at the symbol on the guys' bulletproof vest. A red wolf head with three claw marks through it on a white background.

"Yeah but-"

"But nothing. We can't stay here otherwise the Grimm will overrun us, or his friends will come if he has any around." You said sternly.

"Fine. Lead the way." She said sternly.

Meanwhile:

Jack, using his Icarus Globes, has pinpointed Harus location as she landed before him. He flew to where she landed, and dropped straight to the ground as she finished killing some Grimm. He could see that despite her weapons, she was still scared of the Grimm.

"No need to be afraid anymore. We're stronger and have more firepower than them. They're weaker than us by a long shot." He said as he made eye contact with her.
