Skye scrolled through her massive arsenal of Warframes. Like many people, she did use her favorite Warframe, being Banshee, but was willing to change Warframes that fit the job the best. Currently, she was considering running Excalibur or Rhino for their versatility. In the end, she decided on Excalibur, considering she rather enjoyed the hack and slash style he had.

When the Arsenal formed Excalibur, she was reminded of her early days as a
Tenno, back when things were new, and back when she didn't understand many things. She touched the bone white skin of the Warframe.

"It's been a while, hasn't it?" she asked. Obviously, Excalibur didn't respond. Skye focused her energy into the Warframe, and she disappeared in a quick blue flash. Excalibur came to life as Skye flexed his fingers and stretched his legs.

"Operator? You have returned! Ordis has been-TiREd of wAITiNG"

"Sorry Ordis. I met with some of the natives here. If you're able to, I want you to try and find out more about this world. If all goes well with this second meeting, I should be able to move the Orbiter and get some repairs done."

"You're leaving again so soon?" the Cephalon asked.

"Don't worry about me, I should be back soon. If their vehicles are as advanced looking as their schools, then we should be able to take the Orbiter into our new home."'

"I-I see... don't keep me waiting too long, Operator," Ordis said dejectedly.

"I'll be back soon, okay? I'm not abandoning you."

"YOu'D beTteR nOT." Ordis said.

Skye nodded, then turned back to her arsenal. She thought about taking weapons, but decided against it. Exalted Blade should be more than enough. Just as Excalibur set foot outside however, she was reminded of what mods she had on him. She wouldn't be able to gain energy without Energy Siphon, and if she wasn't using the Zenurik school of techniques, that would be an issue.

Excalibur crouched and jumped, spinning through the air. It was a movement all too familiar to the Tenno. He slid to the arsenal and Skye made the quick fix, replacing Steel Charge with Energy Siphon. This time, when they left the Orbiter, Skye left Transference and did a quick Void Dash to see if she had energizing dash equipped. The small dome of energy confirmed what she wanted to know, and she returned to Excalibur, who then walked into the circle to charge his energy reserve. Skye tapped her foot, waiting. Once she saw that the energy bar was maxed out, she began the journey back to Beacon.

Ozpin saw the pale figure dashing, spinning, sliding and rolling toward the academy. In the back of his mind, he wondered if all of these flashy moves were really necessary, since running basically accomplished the same thing. Then he wondered who this person even was, considering the strange suit of armor that he had seen eject Skye was different. This armor was definitely fitted for a man, while the previous one was for a woman. He scratched his chin thoughtfully.

Eventually, Skye reached Ozpin and slid to a stop before standing up in front of him.

"Hello, Professor," she said, Excalibur projecting her voice. Ozpin raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Miss Zariman?"

"That's me."

"I believe after this faculty initiation, you owe me some explanations over your armor."

Skye cocked her head in confusion. Armor? She wasn't wearing any... Then it dawned on her. "Oh this? This is a-"

"I believe I said after the initiation, Miss Zariman." Ozpin cut in, smiling kindly.
