Chapter 4: Picking Teams
Third Person POV
After everyone finished their fight in the Emerald forest, They had it back to Beacon for Ozpin to announce who's gonna be on what team.
Ozpin stood at the podium, scanning the eager faces in the crowd.
Ozpin: "Next team... Y/n and Violent." He paused for a moment, letting the murmurs begin.
Ruby and Yang turn to look at Y/n and Violet. As they were waiting on what teammates that they were going to pair up with. Violet was mainly nervous because she didn't know who she was going to be on a team with. She just wants to be on the same team with her brother and maybe two new friends. Y/n wasn't nervous at all but he did hoped that Ozpin wouldn't put him with people that he didn't like.
Ozpin: "Your team name will be... Snow Duel."
The room fell silent before a collective groan rippled through the students. Y/n and Violet let's out a sigh of relief. Knowing that both of them were sticking together until the very end. On the other hand it was now that they were going to have to deal with people who really were.
???: "Snow Duel?" Someone muttered, crossing their arms.
???: "What kind of name is that?" Someone else said as people began to whisper.
Everyone starts whispering, people were now staring at Y/n and Violet. Both of them held each other's hand as people began to look at them up and down.
Y/n: "Sounds... unique," He said, trying to suppress a grimace.
Violet: "Unique in the worst way," she shot back.
Whispers and gasps erupted around them, students turning their heads to stare.
???: "That's them? No way!" Someone whisper.
???: "The Snow Reaper and the frostbite girl. Together?" Another person said as they got a good look at them.
Even the one Schnne had something to say and it wasn't anything nice.
Weiss: "So the professor is allowing criminals to attend to this academy? It's so downright wrong to allow such criminals attend a huntsman academy."
Y/n was growling at the commons especially from Weiss comment. His grip on Violet's hand tightened a little bit but not too hard to hurt her. She was also squeezing her hand on his and kept her head down.
Almost literally everyone began to whisper and stare at the two.
Ozpin raised a hand, silencing the crowd.
Ozpin: "It seems your reputation precedes you. Use it wisely. Since it's only you two, you will both be on a two-person team only." He said as they handed them their keys to their dorm.
Once they got their keys, they got off the stage and walked through the crowd. As they were walking through the crowd, people kept looking at them as they passed through.
Y/n: "Just ignore them."he whispered over to his sister. Who was looking down as she held his hand as they were walking through the crowd.
TIMESKIP
Once they were inside, they walked through the halls of beacon until they made it to their dorm. Y/n pulls the key out of his pocket and unlocks the door.
Y/n pushed open the dorm door, Violet trailing behind. The room was simple but spacious enough, sunlight pouring through the window. There were 2 beds on each side of the room, so both Y/n and Violet had their own bed.
Y/n: "Well, home sweet home," He muttered, tossing their bag onto the nearest bed.
Violet crossed her arms. "I still don't get why we're stuck with Snow Duel. Couldn't Ozpin try harder?"
The young girl still didn't like the name since everyone outside of beacon still refers to them as that. She was hoping that the professor would call their team name something different.
Y/n: "You want to complain to him? Be my guest," He teased.
A faint scratching at the door interrupted them. Violet opened it, revealing two familiar shapes—Y/n's small, Night Fury and Violet's Kitsume Fox.
Violet "There you are," She said, crouching to scratch the fox's ears.
Their pets were very happy to see them as they entered their new home.
Violet: "Guess they couldn't stay away." She said as she picks up and holds her Kitsume Fox in her arms.
Y/n's Night Fury flapped to his shoulder, letting out a soft croons.
Y/n: "Looks like we're not the only ones adjusting." He said as gently pets the dragons head. Who leans into his touch.
Y/N smirked. "Maybe they'll get along better than we do."
Violet raised a brow. "Doubt it."
Both laughed as they started unpacking, their pets settling comfortably into the room—just like them.
As they settled into their new dorm, Y/n glanced over at Violet, who was unusually quiet, her eyes fixed on the floor. Her usual sharp demeanor was nowhere to be found.
Y/n: "You good, Violent?" He asked, leaning against his bed.
She hesitated, then sighed.
Violet: "I don't know. All those people staring back there... it's not like I'm scared or anything, but... being in the spotlight like that? It's different."
Y/N nodded, watching her fidget with her gloves.
Y/n: "Yeah, I get it. Kind of hard not to feel the pressure when everyone already expects something from us."
She gave a small laugh, shaking her head.
Violet: "You're too calm about it. Don't tell me you're not fazed."
Y/n: "Of course I am," he admitted, sitting across from her.
Slowly he places his hand on her shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze.
Y/n: "But we've got this. I mean, come on, it's you and me. The Snow Duel, remember?"
Violent rolled her eyes but cracked a faint smile.
Violet: "Don't remind me about that name. It's terrible." She said what the heck of annoyance in her voice.
Y/n: "It's terrible and ours," He said with a grin.
Y/n: "We'll make it work. Besides, we've already got half the academy buzzing about us. Might as well live up to it."
Violet glanced at him, her guarded expression softening.
Violet: "You really think we'll pull this off?"
Y/n: "I know we will," He said firmly.
Slowly he pulls her into a comfort hug.
Y/n: "We've got each other's backs, right? That's all we need."
She nodded slowly, her confidence starting to return.
Violet: "Alright. You'd better not make me regret this, partner."
Y/n: "Never." He smirked.
Timeskip
Roman and Neo made it back to the land of darkness, inside the Evernight Castle sat the queen of the Grimm. Salem sat on her throne with annoyance on her face. He was listening to Roman explain their story with the white fang.
Roman: "I'm telling you my Lord we were attacked." He said trying to reason with the queen.
Salem: "By who?" She asked still not buying his story.
Before Roman could speak again, Cinder stepped before him.
Cinder: "There were three young ones and a huntsman with them. The first one was a girl with silver eyes."
Salem's eyes widen as she takes in this information.
Cinder: "There was also these 2 with ice powers."
Salem: "Cinder I want you to find out more about these three."
Cinder: "Yes my queen." She said bowing before her.
Salem: "And you will take your sister with you."
Cinder nods, she stood up and walks away with Roman and Neo following her behind.
Salem: "I want you to find out as much as you can. Do you understand me Luna? Do understand my daughter?"
A girl wearing a black and purple dress walks out of the shadows. She had long black hair and bright pinkish purple eyes. She also had a black staff with a purple orb at the top.
Luna: "Yes Mother."
