Chapter 3: The Shining Beacon, part 2

(Night's POV)

After leaving Ruby with Jaune, I went inside the central building where all the first-year students were gathered. There were quite a few people there. But, I didn't know why, I felt like I was being watched, it's really unpleasant. I looked around and finally saw who was watching me: a girl with light blue hair, almost white. She had eyes of a light blue to drown in it.

"Hey, Night!" A voice calls to me. It was Dragon. He was approaching me with his friend behind him: a dog-eared faunus with hair shaved on one side. She was wearing a traditional Mistral dress and open-toed shoes. "I introduce you to my friend: Resare Chikara" he introduces me. The faunus looked at me with an icy look

"Hi." I say to her. The faunus doesn't answer me and continues to stare at me with an icy look.

"Resare, that's the guy who fought Torchwick last month!" Dragon told her.

"Him? That moron? Pathetic..." She snarled. Dragon puts his arms around her and my necks.

"Come on! I know you got off on the wrong foot, but that's no reason to get your panties in a bunch!" He tells us.

"It's more like she's the one who's been giving me the cold shoulder. I have nothing against her." I answered him.

"And fuck you." She told me.

"Resare, be more pleasant." Dragon sighs.

"No". She growls.

"Say, when are you going to let us go?" I asked. Dragon immediately withdraws his arms from around our necks. I look up to see Professor Ozpin, who was right behind the microphone, clearing his throat, ready to speak.

"I'll keep this brief: You have traveled here today in search of knowledge. To hone your craft and aquire new skills. And when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your life to the protection of the people. But I look amongst you and all I see, is wasted energy in need of purpose, direction. You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge can only carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step." He declares. Upon hearing the last words, I exchanged a look with Resare, who was still looking at me as freezing cold.

"You will gather in the ballroom tonight. Tommorow, your initiation begins. Be ready. Said Professor Goodwitch. "You are dismissed". She declares. All the students start to leave. I look around to try to find the girl with crystal hair, but no way to see her.

"What's the matter ?" Dragon asks me.

"It's ..." I stop talking, not knowing what to say. "Never mind, forget it." I tell him.

(In the evening, ballroom):

All the students were gathered in the ballroom. The academy passed out sleeping bags for us to sleep on the floor. I was lying on my stomach and still looking at the old picture of me and my sister. Every time I look at that picture, I start hearing her happy laughter, as if she was next to me.

"Hi!" A voice said next to me, startling me out of my trance. It was Dragon. "What are you looking?" He asks me, curious. I hide the picture from him.

"It's none of your business!" I replied, coldly.

"Flap-joy." He sighs as he lies on his back, hands behind his head. "By the way: did you make friends with anyone?" He asks me.

"Aside from you, no. The rest was quick." I replied.

"What do you mean? How many people was it "quick" ?" He asks me.
