Chapter 3: A New Start

-Sapphire POV-

As we walked off the bullhead I see a blonde boy vomiting into the trash can so being the 'nice' person I am, I decided to help him out.

"Didn't enjoy the view?" I asked as I walked up to him.

He shook his head as he stood up straight up after wiping his mouth clean.

"No it's not that, it's motion sickness..." 

"Ahh, I see...name's Sapphire Rose."

"Jaune Arc, short, sweet, rolls off the tongue, ladies love it."

I giggled a bit. "You're confident, you'll need to be when you find the one." I said as I started to walk off.

"The one?" He asked confused.

"In do time my friend, in do time." I waved at him while leaving him there. "...Now where's Ruby..?" I looked around a bit only to find her fall into someone luggage making me sigh. "Classic Ruby..." I walked over to see a girl yelling at Ruby. 

"Do you have any idea of the damage you could've caused?" White yelled.

"Uhh..." Was Ruby's response as she picked up one of the girl's suit cases only for it to be snatched out of Ruby's hands.

"Gimme that! This is Dust mined and  purified from the Schnee Quarry."

"Uhh..."

"What are you, brain dead?"

"Okay that's enough...back off will ya..." I said walking up to them thus gaining their attention as Ruby smiled while the Schnee glares at me.

"And who do you think you're talking to?"

"A snobby bitch..."

"Swear."

"...Not now Ruby."

"H-How dare you?!"

"How dare you speak to my sister like that?"

"Because your sister had knocked over my luggage of Dust!"

"So..?"

"So?! What do you mean by 'So'?"

"Why does it matter? You're a Schnee right."

"Why yes I am."

"Then it shouldn't matter since you have a Dust company, you have Lien, which also mean you can buy more Dust...So...stop acting like a baby."

"Wha-I...How dar-Agh!" She yelled in frustration as I have a way of shutting people up while Ruby giggled.

"Let's go Ruby and let the 'princess' sort out her standards." I said as I walked off with Ruby trailing behind me.

"Where are we going?" She asked.

"The place we're suppose to go...also known as the ceremony." I said as we later walked in only have Yang yell at us.

"Ruby, Sapphire! Over here! I saved you a spot!" 

"Well...let's go sis."

We walked over as Ruby complain to Yang about the Schnee who was also there so that meant...

"You!"

"Oh god, it's happening again!"

"Oh hey bitch."

"Swear..." Yang and Ruby said.

"Oh piss off." I glared at them before turning my attention back to the Schnee. "What do you want?"

"An apology."

"...For..?"

"The way you treated me."

"Well then sure, I'll apologize..."

"Thank yo-"

"Only if you apologize to Ruby."

"For what?!"

"For *Ahem* the way you treated her."

"Bu-"

"So will you, or will you not?"

"......"

"That's what I thought, now move along."

And with that she left as Ozpin started speaking but he sounded like he was bored with life as if he died and been born again over and over but the speech itself had a secret message before he and Glynda sent us off.

-TimeSkip, Night in the Ballroom, 3rd POV-

Sapphire was sleeping in her sleepwear as Ruby and Yang talked.

"It's like a big slumber party!" Yang stated as she plops down next to Ruby who writing something.

"I don't think dad would approve of all the boys, though." Ruby said.

"I know I do." She purrs looking at the boys...until Jaune walks by making her eyes looks a Ruby.

"What's that?"

"A letter to the gang back at signal. I promise to tell them all about Beacon and how things are going."

"Aww, that's so cuuuuute!!!!" Yang said only for a pillow to be thrown at her face.

"Shut up! I didn't get to take my friends with me to school. It's weird not knowing anyone here."

"What about Jaune?" (Sapphire introduced them) "He's...nice. There you go! Plus one friend! That's a 100 percent increase!"

"I'm pretty sure the Schnee counts as a 'negative friend'. Back to zero."

"There's no such things as 'negative friends'! You just made one friend and one enemy!" Yang said only to have another pillow thrown at her making her remove said pillow. "Look, it's only been one day. Trust me you got friends all around you. You just haven't met them yet."

Then they hear a candle being lit as they turn seeing a girl in black reading a book.

"Who's that?" Ruby asked.

"Don't know but she seems friendly let's go."

"...Wait wha-" She tried to question her but she got dragged to where the girl was.

"Helloooo." Yang sang as she waved at the girl. "How your day been?" 

"Good?" Was her reply.

"So...what's your name?"

"Blake."

"Well, Blake, I'm Yang! Ruby's older sister."

"And I assume you're Ruby?"

"Yep! Ruby Rose."

Then there was a bit of silence before Yang continued.

"...I like your bow!"

"...Thanks."

"It goes great with your...pajamas!"

"Right..."

"Nice night, don't you think?"

"Yes. It's lovely. Almost as lovely as this book...that I will continue to read...as soon as you leave."

"Yeah, this girl's a lost cause."

"What's it about?" Ruby asked.

"Huh?"

"Your book. Does it have a name?"

"Well...It's about a man with two souls, each fighting for control over his body."

"Oh yeah...that's real lovely..." Yang said off to the side.

"I love books. Yang used to read to me every night before bed. Stories of heroes and monsters...they're one of the reasons I want to be a Huntress."

"Why is that? Hoping you'll live happily ever after?"

"I'm hoping we all will. As a girl, I wanted to be just like the heroes in the books. Someone who  fought for what was right, and who protected people who couldn't protect themselves."

"That's very ambitious for a child. Unfortunately, the real world isn't the same as a fairy tale."

"Well, that's why we're here...to make things better."

"Ohhh, I'm so proud of my baby sister!"Yang said lifting Ruby in the air with a bear hug.

"Cut it out!" Ruby yelled as she punched Yang in the face as they started fighting, but unknown to them Sapphire mumbled 'Strike One'.

"Well, Ruby, Yang... it's a pleasure to-" Blake started but the Schnee came up.

"What in the world is going on over here!? Don't you realize some of us are trying to sleep!?" She looks and sees Ruby and Yang as both Yang and the Schnee yelled.

"Oh, not you again!" Thus the sleeping Sapphire mumbled 'Strike Two' and the only one who heard was Blake.

"Shh! Guys, she's right! People are trying to sleep!"

"Oh, now you're on my side."

"I was always on your side!"

"Yeah, what's your problem with my sister!? She's only trying to be nice!"

"She's a hazard to my health!"

Before Blake can blow out the candle cold air did it for her leaving it completely dark except for two lights...one yellow that's sparkling and one blue that was cool.
