Chapter 2: The Shining Beacon
(Quick Note: You still have your mask on so people can't see your face yet, but they will soon. And you are wearing a hoodie, so nobody can see your Cyborg Body, they will find out later on.)

I'm looking outside the glass wall, inside the airship, worrying about Sam and Monsoon. What if their not here? What if they got transported into another world? Wherever they are, those assholes are gonna pay for what they did. Then all of a sudden an image of my parents popped into my head.
Y/N: *whispers* God..........Fucking.........Dammit.
I said this to myself as I try to hold back my tears.
As the airship docked at the entrance of the school, the guy or as we call him 'Vomit Boy' emerges and goes over to the nearest trash can, hunching over it as he barfs into it.
I walked over to him, and patted him on the back.
Y/N: You....... doing OK there buddy?
Vomit Boy: Yeah..... just a...... slight sickness is all.
Y/N: Looks like more than just a slight sickness to me pale.
Vomit Boy: Motion sickness is much more common problem than people let on!
Jaune: A-Anyways. The name's Jaune Arc! Short, sweet, rolls off the tongue - ladies love it!
Y/N: I-I wouldn't be so sure about that, "Vomit Boy".
I then pointed at the girls giggling at Jaune.
Jaune sighs, dejectedly.
Jaune: There goes my first impression.
Y/N: *chuckles* It's alright buddy, I'm here for ya.
I said this as I pat Jaune's back again.
Y/N: Anyways. Name's Y/N, Y/N L/N.
(Time skip)
Me and Jaune walk out of the airship and head down the paved path to the front of the school. As we take in the entirety of Beacon Academy.
Jaune: Wow.....
Y/N:*whistles* Guess I'm a wizard now?
Jaune: What?
Y/N: Nothing.
*EXPLOSION*
Y/N: What the hell!?
Y/N: Guess someone's not having a great day....
Me and Jaune then dashed off to where the explosion was and we ran into a girl reading a book and holding a red dust jar.
Y/N: What happened!?
I asked her.
We then see Ruby talking to some girl who is covered in dust, though it quickly disappears.
White Girl: Unbelievable! This is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about!
Ruby: I'm really, really sorry!
She said, apologetic and embarrassed.
White Girl: Ugh, you complete dolt! What are you even doing here? Aren't you a little young to be attending Beacon?
Ruby: Well, I-I...
White Girl: This isn't your ordinary combat school. It's not just sparring and practice, you know! we're here to fight monsters, so... watch where your going!
Ruby: Hey, I said I was sorry, princess!
Book Girl: It's heiress, actually.
The Girl then approaches the two with the bottle in her left hand.
Book Girl: Weiss Schnee, heiress to the Schnee Dust Company, one of the largest producers of energy propellant in the world.
When I heard that, I got a slight headache. I then touched my head.
Y/N: Aghhhh......shit....
Jaune: You OK man?
Y/N: Yeah, slight headache, that is all.
The Girl in White then smiles smugly.
Weiss: Finally! Some recognition!
Book Girl: The same company infamous for it's controversial labor forces and questionable business partners.
Y/N: Damn, shots fired.
Weiss then gets angry again as Ruby chuckles.
Weiss: Wha- How dare you- The nerve of... Ugh!
Weiss then gets up in the girl's face and takes back the bottle from her, she then storms off as her helpers gather the luggage and follow Weiss.
Ruby: I promise I'll make this up to you!
To the storming Snowflake, still sorry.
Ruby: *sighs* I guess I'm not the only one having a rough first day... So what's...
We see the Girl in Black walking off as well, then Ruby collapses to the ground on her back.
Ruby: Welcome to Beacon...
We then walk up to the Fallen Red Riding Hood.
Y/N: Having trouble on your first day?
I said as I hold out my hand.
Ruby: Tell me about it......
Ruby then took my hand, and stood up.
Y/N: Where's Yang? I thought she was with you.
Ruby: She took off to see her friends.....
Y/N: I see..... OH, Ruby this is-
Jaune: Jaune Arc! Short, sweet, rolls of-
Y/N: Dude, just stop it. I mean it was cute and funny the first time, but now it's just sad.
I said as I put my hand on Jaune's shoulder, while Jaune sighs in defeat.
Ruby: Aren't you the guy who threw up on the ship?
(Time Skip)
Beacon inside the walls are filled with scenic trees, arching architecture, and a winding road alongside a river, down which Ruby, Jaune, and I are walking.
Ruby: (laughing) Look, I'm sorry! Vomit Boy was the first thing that came to mind.
Jaune: Oh, yeah? What if I called you Crater Face?
Ruby: Hey, that explosion was an accident!
Jaune: Well, the name's Jaune Arc! Short, sweet, rolls off the tongue - ladies love it!
I faced palmed upon hearing that.
Ruby: *skeptic* Do they?
Jaune: They will! Well, I-I hope they will. My mom always says that... Never mind.
Ruby giggles before a short, awkward silence falls. I break the silence.
Y/N: So, what kind of weapons do you guys use?
Ruby: I got this thing!
Ruby pulls out Crescent Rose and stabs it into the ground.
Jaune: Whoa! Is that a scythe?
Ruby: It's also a customizable high-impact sniper rifle!
Jaune: A-wha...?
Y/N: It's also a gun.
Ruby cocks it, smiling.
Jaune: That's so cool!
Ruby: So, what've you got?
Jaune: Oh! I, uh...
Jaune unsheathes a sword
Jaune: I got this sword!
Ruby: Ooooohh!
Jaune: Yeah, and I've got a shield, too!
He gets his scabbard, raises his arm and expands the metal into his defensive shield.
As Ruby is touching the shield.
Ruby: So, what do they do?
Fumbling with the shield as it retracts off his arm, expands, and retracts again before putting it back in place and finally shrinking it down for good, placing it on his belt.
Jaune: The shield gets smaller, so when I get tried of carrying it, I can just... put it away...
Y/N: But... wouldn't it weigh the same?
Jaune: *dejectedly* Yeah, id does...
Ruby: *giggling* Well, I'm kind of a dork when it comes to weapons, sooo... I guess I did go a little overboard when designing it.
Y/N: Wait? What!? - you made that thing?!
Ruby: Oh course! All students at Signal forge their own weapons! Didn't you make yours, Jaune?
Jaune: It's a hand-me-down. My great-great-grandfather used it to fight in the war.
Y/N: I respect that.
Ruby: Sounds more like a family heirloom to me! *laughs* Well, I like it! Not many people have an appreciation towards the classics these days.
Y/N: You don't say.
Jaune: Yeah, the classics...
He said as he is sheathing his sword.
Ruby: What about you, Y/N?
Y/N: Huh?
Jaune: What do you use?
Y/N: Sometimes I rely on hand to hand combat, but I do have this.
I then unsheathe my blade.
Ruby and Jaune: Whoa.
Y/N: I can also fire a beam of lightning from my sword.
Ruby: Y/N, can you show us!
Jaune: Yeah, we want to see it!
Y/N: Whoa, easy there guys. I can't just do that attack, it'll kill someone.
Ruby: C'mon pleaaasse.
Jaune: Yeah c'mon, I wanna see it.
Y/N: Uhhhhhh......
Ruby then gave me her puppy dog eyes on my face. It's so cute, it made me blush a little.
Y/N: *sigh* Fine.......
Ruby and Jaune: Yeah!
We were below the clouds, the perfect spot to do fire my Sword Beam.
Ruby: OH! I CAN'T WAIT!!
I then sheathed my sword and got into position.
Electricity was forming around my blade, I charged every ounce of electricity around the blade, making sparks and bolts of electricity spark the ground around me,
Ruby and Jaune: Wow!
I then unsheathed my blade as electricity was around my blade.
Y/N: HAH!!
The beam cut straight through the clouds.
Ruby and Jaune: Wow......
(Ozpin POV)
I was looking out the glass wall when all of a sudden a giant sword beam came out of nowhere.
Ozpin: Huh?
(Y/N POV)
Y/N: Phew...
Ruby and Jaune both approached me.
Ruby and Jaune: THAT WAS AWESOME!!
Jaune: So is that like your... semblance or something?
Y/N: You.... could say that, yeah.
(Time Skip)
We were again walking, with Ruby beside me and Jaune beside her.
Ruby: So why'd you help me out back there? In the courtyard?
Y/N: Eh, why not? It's like my mom always used to say, "Strangers are just friends you haven't met yet."
Ruby: And that night?
Y/N: Same reason. Besides, that Ginger had it coming, I mean that old man was just doing his job, making a profit for a living, and to think he should have deserved that. Ridiculous.....
Ruby: I see......
Ruby then just stared at me, smiling.
Y/N: What is it?
Ruby: N-Nothing.....
Ruby then starts to blush.
Ruby: Hmm.
Ruby looks around.
Ruby: Hey, where are we going?
Jaune: Oh, I don't know! I was following you.
Y/N: I have no clue.
Jaune: Y-You think that there might be a directory? Maybe a food court? Some kind of recognizable landmark? Is, uh... Id that a 'no'?
Ruby laughs
Y/N: I doubt it.
