Lisa Pov-

I sat in the back waiting for my name to be called as I hoped I could still stay here even though I couldn't find a partner. I listened to Ozpin as he announced teams.

Ozpin: Russel Thrush. Cardin Winchester. Dove Bronzewing. Sky Lark. The four of you retrieved the black bishop pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team CRDL, led by... Cardin Winchester!

The audience gives one more wave of ovation, while four students walk up to the stage to take their places in front of the headmaster as their faces fill the screen.

Ozpin: Jaune Arc. Lie Ren. Pyrrha Nikos. Nora Valkyrie. The four of you retrieved the white rook pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team JNPR.

I see the girl named Nora laughing and gives Ren a hug.

Ozpin: Led by... Jaune Arc!

Jaune: Huh? L-Led by...?

Ozpin: Congratulations, young man.

Lisa(Thoughts): How disappointing...

Ozpin: Next we have Blake Belladonna. Ruby Rose. Weiss Schnee. Yang Xiao Long. The four of you retrieved the white knight pieces. From this day forward, you will work together as Team RWBY. Led by... Ruby Rose!

Lisa(Thoughts): What!

I looked in surprise at her where Ruby also looks like she's in shock from this.

Yang: I'm so proud of you!

Ozpin: Finally we have An. Can you please step up to the stage.

I was nervous as I walked up their crossing my fingers that I passed.

Ozpin: You recovered the red pawn but sadly you didn't find a partner. Under normal circumstances you would be kicked out......

Lisa(Thoughts): Oh well at least I tried......

I looked down at the floor in disappointment but then I heard Ozpin speak again.

Ozpin: But seeing your skill on the field showed that you are capable. So you will be in someone else's team by your choosing.

Lisa: I will chose Team Rwby.

Ozpin: Very well you will be part of team Rwby. Congratulations young lady and welcome to Beacon.

I walk off the stage and go to the room that I was assigned to with my team. They were talking with each other as I just stayed behind not saying anything to them. We finally got inside of the room and everyone seemed to be tired as everyone picked somewhere to sleep. The only problem was their was only 4 beds.

Weiss: So where's the little girl going to sleep?

Ruby: She can sleep on my bed.

Lisa(Thoughts): As perfect as that may be being close to you makes me kind of uncomfortable.

I felt my spine chill a little as I had to think about sleeping with my sister. I took off my jacket revealing my hair that went to my shoulders and folded it up into a pillow. I look at Ruby having a shocked expression and says something that kind of angered me.

Ruby: Hey your hairs just like mine!

Lisa(Thoughts): I'm nothing like you.

Lisa: Yeah I guess we do....

I start to lay on the floor as I strayed at the ceiling. Then I heard the girl named Weiss speak.

Weiss: What are you doing I can't let a little girl sleep on the floor!

Lisa: I like sleeping on the floor it's comfortable. End of discussion.

Weiss: Well-

Lisa: End of discussion. Now go to sleep we have school tomorrow.

They soon all went to sleep as I laid their still awake. It soon became midnight as I stood up from just laying their. I looked around the room to see everyone asleep. I went right next to her pulling out my knife and raising my knife to stab her. I was going to finish the job but then I heard someone stir in their sleep as I turned to see Yang get up. Looking tired as she looked around to see me next to Ruby not noticing the knife behind my back.

Yang: An is that you? What are you doing awake so late....

I put my knife away and walk to Yang putting my finger to my mouth telling her to be quite. She seems to just ignore it and just go back to sleep. I look back at Ruby sighing to myself. I take off my mask getting a better look at her.

Lisa: Not this time I guess...

I put my mask back on and stood in the corner waiting for morning as I think to myself.

Lisa: God I feel like Myers right now.

Timeskip-

Ruby POV-

I woke up to see the sun rising. I look around the room and see An finish dressing themselves and start to leave. I decided to get ready to as I also got dressed.

Lisa Pov-

I left the room not waiting for the rest of them to wake up. I put on some tunes as I walked to my first class. I go inside one of the rooms to see it's completely empty. I decided to sit in the back and play games on my scroll and wait for other people to come. Soon 20 minutes passed and a old dude came inside the room going to the front of the front of the class and sat down at his desk. He didn't notice me as I just sat their alone. Soon others came inside the classroom with my team and JNPR being late to class. Ruby came in trying to find someone but couldn't find them as she sat down next to her team. Soon class started as I started to listen to the teacher that I found out was named Professor Port.

Port: "Monsters! Deeeemons... Prowlers of the night! Yes, the creatures of Grimm have many names, but I merely refer to them as prey! Ha-ha!"

I look over to my team to see Blake and Yang are sitting up and paying attention, Weiss is taking notes, and Ruby has her head propped in her hand as she takes a quick nap until she is woken back up by Port's bad joke, which receives a cricket-filled silence as a result.

Lisa: How sad...

Port: "Uhhhh... And you shall too, upon graduating from this prestigious academy! Now, as I was saying: Vale, as well as the other three kingdoms, are safe havens in an otherwise treacherous world! Our planet is absolutely teeming with creatures that would love nothing more than to tear you to pieces! And that's where we come in. Huntsmen! Huntresses...

He gives Yang a wink as I can tell she has a shiver down her spine.

Port: Individuals who have sworn to protect those who cannot protect themselves! From what, you ask? Why, the very world!"

Student: Ayyyy-yep!

I heard from a random guy as he stood up but quickly sat down. I rolled my eyes and had my attention back a Port.

Port: "That is what you are training to become. But first: A story. A tale of a young, handsome man... Me! When I was a boy..."

His words fade into the background as I stopped listening since I lost interest. I notice Weiss looking at Ruby as she is very focused on penciling the paper in front of her.

Port: "...Despite smelling of cabbages, my grandfather was a wise man. 'Peter', he told me..."

I continued to ignore him and look at Weiss as she gets more and more fustrated. Soon the teacher finally said something that was actually interesting.

Port: So, who among you believes themselves to be the embodiment of these traits?

I was about to raise my hand but Weiss was the first one to raise her hand as she shouted angrily.

Weiss: I do, sir!

Port: Well, then, let's find out! Step forward, and face your opponent!

He brings out a cage with red eyes as Weiss goes to get her stuff. She comes back and gets in a ready position as I put my head on my hands as watch what happens.
