[roughly 10 years ago]

You:

"(Y/n)..........oh (Y/n)......".

The burning women slowly crept over to me with that glass knife, half her face covered by black hair.

"Don't hurt my brother!" My sister yelled, still trying to pull me away.

"I'm not going to hurt him, just, keep him, for a while. Until he can make me something I have always wanted".

"DONT TOUCH MY FAMILY YOU BITCH!".

My dad came and tackled her out of nowhere, radiating a ice Auroa, and punching the flaming women in the face.

"DONT EVEN GO NEAR MY CHILDREN!".

There was a explosion, and my dad was thrown off her, and into the wall.

"Oh Steven, if you only told me what I wanted, you could have prevented all this".

She turned back to us, and 2 blades appeared in her hands.

"You could have saved your children, if you simply were willing to sacrifice your pride".

She raised her arm to strike at us, but my father got right behind her, and a green portal opened.

"Protect your sister! Protect your brother!"......

And that was he last thing I heard before he disappeared into the portal, dragging the burning women with him....

[Present day, 2 weeks after the party]

I shot back up form my bed, smacking my head against the bed above me, and groaning in pain. I was still sweating from the nightmare, and my heart was racing, but I was still tired from just waking up.

"Argh, What time is it?" I said waking up to my alarm clock, rubbing my slightly sore head.

I looked over to it, and squinted my eyes, looking at the time. 8:58 is what it read, less then 2 minutes before class starts.

"Damn, Everyone up!" I shouted already making my way to the dresser.

"I don't wanna get up...".

"My body's to sore...".

"Yang.....".

They all groaned in defiance, no one wanting to get up.

"But we have class today".

"I don't wanna..." Endar said, turning back in his bed.

"Guys there will be girls there. Team RWBY to be exact".

That woke them up, all slowly falling out of bed and landing in a row, and quickly rushing off to change. We all thew on our school uniforms, and rushed out the door, me still throwing on the jacket and Carth pulling up his pants. Sprinting down the hallway, I was still working on my utility belt, since I never left anywhere without it, even if most of its contents were empty at the moment.

"Guys, which way do we even go?" Said Endar, stopping in the middle of the courtyard.

"Let me check.... this way!" I said, pointing to building 4.

We all sprinted towards there, and bursted through the front doors. We kept running, and the janitors were up ahead, and we didn't have time to slow down.

"MOVE TEAM!" I shouted, running ahead and sliding under the robots legs.

Endar ran and kicked off the wall, dodging another janitor and catching up with me. Yin dove over the movable station in his way, rolling once he hit the ground, and while Carth simply just jumped over it, using his hands to propel himself forwards. We call regained our speed, and kept running towards our class. We looked ahead to see a robot trip, and spill his supplies everywhere, making a weird obstacle course.

"Oh you got to be kidding me" well all said at the same time.

Simultaneously taking a deep breath mid run to prepare for the acrobatics needed, we speed up, ready to do our best. Jumping over the janitor and diving over some brooms, I fell behind a little, picking up 4 brooms in the process.

"(Y/n) why would you do that?" Questioned Yin, wondering what I was going to say.

"Puddle ahead, use as a pole".

"Did someone say team pole jump?!?" Asked Cath, taking one from me.

We all used them to boost ourselves over the puddle and to the dry side. All of us cheering at our success, I was drawn back to reality, and asked them all a question.

"Hey guys how long is halwa-".

I was about to finish my sentence, but we all crashed into a set of twin doors, and fell through, into the classroom infront of us.

Goodwitch:

"As said in Ospins speech, knowledge has only carried you so far. From now on, there are no safety nets, no failsafe systems. And definitely no hero in the end who will rise above. No one will burst through the doors, and be the key to our salvati-".

Just then, the doors exploded open, and 4 students came flying out, and landed on the stairs of the middle of class. (Y/n) landed first, followed by the orange haired one, the fawnus, and then the green haired boy.

"What did I miss teach?" Said the Fawnus, clearly trying to play it off cool.

"Guys......get off me......" groaned (Y/n), doing a push up trying to get them off.

"Oh, right, Carth, Endar, get off him" said who I could only assume to be yin, who was still on top of him.

They all quickly scrambled off their leader, and helped him up.

"Can I get extra credit for not being dead mam?" Asked (Y/n), dusting off his pants.

I was completely shocked by the audacity of these children.

"How dare you come into my class room an-".

I was cut off by the sudden laughing of the entire class, with (T/n) laughing there buts off on the other side of the room, with Enders hand being outstretched, as if he was throwing up a illusion. I quickly flipped myself around, and stared them dead in the eye.

"So you think this is funny?" I asked, wondering if they will still respond with something snappy.

Just then, (Y/n) made the "little" sign with his hands, and the entire class started to laugh again.

"Take down that illusion at once or I will personally see you all expelled!" I said pointing to the Trick behind me.

They all quickly nodded, and Endar flicked his wrist, and when I turned back around, the group was gone.

" (T/n), since you are all so eager to be the class clowns, how about you humor me. Did I call for attendance yet?" I said, staring dead on at the students who would most definitely be getting detention after class. Now I had them busted. I knew better then to fall for the old trick, and oddly enough, they gave me a quick answer.

"No, but once you were done with your speech about this being where warriors are made and broken, you were going to".

I had a look of shock. They were here, but that didn't excuse their actions.

"Good, but that doesn't excuse your insubordination. See me after class gentlemen, and if I see any more foolishness from you all, detention will be the least of your worries".

They all nodded, and I turned back around, finally moving forwards with class.

"Now, as I was saying, there are no safety nets, nothing will help you if you fall. Nothing, but yourself, and your teammates...".

(Y/n):

I thought we were dead when I saw the look on Goodwitchs face when we first bursted in, but Endar was smart enough to throw up a illusion of us being on the other side, and quickly rushed us out of sight.

"What the hell are you doing? We are going to be in so much shit if we are caught!".

"Then don't get caught. Carth, can you cloud her mind so she can't see us?".

He nodded, saying "yes, but only for 30 seconds".

We all nodded, and got to the edge of the wall we were hiding behind, and good witch had finished up her question.

"Shit, Carth quickly read her mind".

He nodded and put his hand on his head and pointed towards her, and then spoke what she wanted to hear. Seeming satisfied with her answer, we quickly rushed over to where our seats would be, and hid behind the wall that was next to them, out of sight.

"....there are no safety nets....".

I rolled off the ground and into our seats, picking up the pencil and paper, and pretending to take notes.

"How the hell did you guys-" Yang started, until I cut her off.

"I'll explain later, but right now, we should pay attention. Don't need you guys getting in trouble".....

[after class]

(Y/n):

Goodwitch had given us a good scolding after class about pranks, and made us stay in a 3 hour detention for helping clean up her classroom.

"Boys, while you are dusting of tables, you are all aware of you schedules yes?".

We all nodded, knowing we had 1 3 hour class a day, 4 days a week. Every Friday was dueling day, or the now dubbed by our team "fight club".

"How can these desks be this dirty in one week?".

"they weren't, I always have a student who misbehaves the first week of school, so these have been like this over the summer".

"Makes sense".

"Gross!".

"Score a dollar!".

"I'm feeling vibrations".

All team LOCE members looked to me and Endar said "did you find a vibebrat-".

"No my scroll went off. It's from Ruby, wait what were you going to say?".

"Nothing...." he sheepishly responded back, going back to cleaning up.

I continued to sweep the floor, while I felt my stomach rumble form being hungry.

"Mrs goodwitch, when can we eat?".

She held up her hand and took out her scroll, looking at it and sighing.

"You boys get lucky today, Ospins needs me, dentition dismissed".

All of my team did a cheer of joy, and we quickly put away our janitorial tools, and rushed to the cafeteria, hoping our friends would have saved us a seat....
