Once the ship had docked at the cliff overlooking Vale, we made our way down the path that lead to the main tower of Beacon, because that's where everyone else was going.

There were a lot of people there, most of them, I could guess, were new.

"So, I guess this is where we'll be spending the next, I dunno, 4 years?" I said.

"Yeah, that's if everything ends up being, you know, normal, and considering the White Fang doesn't find us here. If that does happens, we're leaving. I don't want to put others in danger because of you and me." Gabe said.

It was true. If the White Fang were to find us, everyone here would be in danger.

So, with that being said, we'd have to conceal ourselves as best as possible.

Anyway, while me and Gabe were walking down the path, we heard an explosion come from behind us.

"The heck was that?" Gabe asked.

I shrugged,"I don't know."

"Probably some crazy idiot who accidentally activated their weapon and shot the ground or something" Gabe said.

I shrugged again, and we continued our way to the building.

Everyone was gathering in the amphitheater, waiting for Ozpin to make his speech.

Me and Gabe found a spot near the back and we waited there unti he finally came on stage.

"I'll keep this...brief." He started.

"You have traveled here today in search of knowledge-to hone your craft and acquire new skills, and, when you have finished, you plan to dedicate your lives to the protection of the people. But I look among you today, and all I see, is wasted energy. In need of purpose, direction."

"Wasted energy?! I'd hardly call myself 'Wasted energy'" I whispered.

"Dude,shh."

"You assume knowledge will free you of this, but your time at this school will prove that knowledge will ony carry you so far. It is up to you to take the first step."

Goodwitch came onto the stage as Ozpin left.

"You will gather in the ballroom tonight. Tomorrow, your initiation begins. Be ready, you are dismissed."
