Lurking Darkness

Normal-ish Knees?

"That poor dude." You say as you pass the blonde who is now puking all over the garbage can. As you walk off the transport you can't help but be awestruck at the size of Beacon, you knew it was a big academy, but it's even larger in person.

"Y/n!" You look over your shoulder and Pyrrha is yelling for you. You wave back and begin walking toward her.

"Hey Pyrrha! How was the rest of the flight?"

"It went quite well. Most of the students already know me though so it was difficult to actually talk to someone as a friend and not have them be amazed that I was talking to them." You cross your arms and sigh.

"Aw man, I'm sorry Pyrrha. At least you got to talk to people somewhat, I had a very short conversation with a guy who puked his guts out the first ten seconds of talking to me. Must've been the view."

"That must be the view, well from what I did gather, Professor Ozpin is to be addressing the student body in the main courtyard, I'll meet you there!" She walks off toward the main courtyard. You wave as she waves back, still in some shock at Beacon, so much so that as you're walking you accidentally bump into someone.

"Oh my bad, I apologize." You bend down to pick up the items the person dropped, you give them back quickly.

"It's okay, I should probably get my head out of this book. I'll be on my way now." As she walks off you can't help but notice her little black bow that sits atop her head.

"Hm, she was kinda cute, there's no way we'll meet again though so what's done is don—."
A huge explosion takes your mind off of her while instantly pull out your weapon, Moonwake, your collapsible spear and bolt action rifle in one. While not entirely based off Pyrrha's design, she did help you build it and design it, so naturally, it'd have some of her flair as well as your own white and blue streaks
"UNBELIEVABLE! THIS IS EXACTLY THE KIND IF THING I WAS TALKING ABOUT!"

"I'm really, really, sorry." You look over and see a white haired girl screaming at a girl clad in red.

"YOU COMPLETE DOLT!" As you get closer you notice it's the same girl dressed from the airship twiddling her fingers looking really embarrassed.

"Woah! Are you two okay?" You ask both of the girls. The one in the red and black looks super embarrassed and doesn't say anything, she doesn't look to be hurt, but judging from the white clad girl covered in soot, she is going to be soon.

"No I am not okay! This dunce almost blew me up!" She stomps her foot.

"Hey I said I was sorry princess." She looked slightly less scared to talk now that a third party had entered the argument.

"Wait a minute, all this dust your carrying around, white hair, that must mean you're—?"You point at her.

"Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world." You turn to see the girl with the bow again.

"Finally! Some recognition." She gives a cold stare to the young girl.

"The same company infamous for its controversial labour forces, and questionable business partners." Your eyebrows hike up.

"Not a good first try making friends so far."

"Wha-? How dare?" The Schnee grows angrier.
The red and black one giggles a little bit.

"So wait you're really Weiss Schnee?" You ask even though you just heard it.

"Of course I am! And so far, I am already tired of this place!" She storms off.

"Wow, you really know your stu-" the girl with the bow is already walking away, leaving you,
little Red Riding Hood, and a giant crater.

"Um, t-thanks for coming to check on us." You look at the girl.

"Of course, when you hear an explosion, you have to go check what happened!" You say with a smile.

"How'd the explosion even happen anyway?"

"She was waving Dust in my face and I sneezed..."

"Wow. Powerful lungs you got huh?" You ask humorously.

"Yea, U-uh I'm Ruby Rose, nice to meet you." She extends her hand.

"Y/n Aspro, it's nice to meet you Ruby." You take her hand and shake it. You realize that ordeal took up more time than you thought.

"Hey, Professor Ozpin is going to address the students soon, we should start heading our way over there."

"Good idea." She smiles. As you both walk, she attempts to make small talk.

"Soooo, I've got this thing." She whips out a giant scythe twice her size.

"Woah, is that your weapon?"

"Yep, it's also a highly customizable, high impact sniper rifle."

"That's incredible!" You say stunned.

"Thanks, built her myself." She runs the handle.

"Awesome." You say still amazed and even more so now that you know she built that thing.

"What about you? What do you have?" She asked curiously.

"Oh nothing really, it's a collapsible spear that turns into a bolt action rifle."

"Ooooooh, does it have a cool name?"

"I was thinking 'Craterface'." You look at her cheekily, she looks disappointed you'd even say that.

"No honestly, it's called Moonwake."

"Ooooooh that's sooooo coooool!" Her eyes twinkle as she looks at it.

You laugh as she is right now, besides Pyrrha, the coolest person you've meet at Beacon.

Ugh, it's 6 AM I should be asleep, but I'm having fun with this right now so I've been going. And yes, I know I cut Jaune out of the part with Ruby, trust me, they'll meet soon enough, but for now, I'm going to keep working! -P
