Beacon locker room, the next day, 8 am

Yang and Ruby were at their lockers, preapering for the initation. They swa two people passing behind them, one walking very averagly and the other... skipping.

Ruby: Wonder what those two are so worked up about?

Yang: Oh, who knows? So, you seem awfully chipper this morning!

Ruby: Yep! No more awkward small talk or "getting-to-know-you" stuff. Today, I get to let my sweetheart do the talking. 

Yang: Well, remember, Ruby, you're not the only one going through initiation. If you wanna grow up, you're gonna have to meet new people and learn to work together.

Ruby: Argh, you sound like dad! Okay, first of all: What does meeting new people have to do with fighting? And secondly: I don't need people to help me grow up! I drink milk!

Yang:  But what about when we form teams?

Ruby:  Um, I don't know, I... I'll just be on your team or something...

Yang:  Maybe you should try being on someone else's team?

Ruby: My dear sister Yang, are you implying that you do not wish to be on the same team as me?

Yang: What? No! Of course I do! I just thought... I don't know, maybe it would help you... break out of your shell!

Ruby: What the-?! I don't need to 'break out of my shell'! That's absolutely ridiculos!

Meanwhile on the other side of the room Weiss was talking to Evie and a red haired girl.

Weiss:  So, Pyrrha, Evie, have you given any thought to whose team you'd like to be on? I'm sure everyone must be eager to unite with such a strong, inteligent individuals such as yourself!

Evie: I'm good, I already have a plan with a certain... group of mine. Thanks for the offer though.

Pyrra:  Hmm... I'm not quite sure. I was planning on letting the chips fall where they may.

Weiss: Well... I was thinking maybe we could be on a team together.

Pyrrha: Well, that sounds grand!

Evie: *sighs* If something goes wrong, I may consider it.

Weiss: Great! (in thought) This will be perfect! The smartest girl in class combined with the strongest girl in class! Together we will be unsto-

Pyrra: Is she alright? She's just standing there.

Evie: Giver her a minute. I think she is having an inner monoluge.

Out of knowwhere Jaune approached Weiss.

Jaune: You know what else is great? Me. Jaune Arc. Nice to meet you.

Weiss: What do you want?

Pyrra: Nice to meet you, Jaune!

Jaune:  Yeah, yeah.  So, Weiss, couldn't help but overhear your fondness of me the other day.

Evie face palmed her face.

Weiss: Oh, you've got to be kidding me!

Jaune: Don't worry! No need to be embarrassed! So, been hearing rumors about teams! I was thinking you and me would make a good one! What do you say?

Pyrra:  Actually, I think the teams are comprised of four students each, so-

Jaune:  You don't say. Well, hot stuff, play your cards right and maybe you could join up with the winning team.
