(Pov third)
Sitting across from each other on couches and drinking coffee were two of the strongest hunters in Remnant. One is the headmaster of beacon academy Ozpin. The other is the now-former dean of Haven Academy, the undercover Escanor. Those years back after saving Raven, he decided to step down and give the position to Lionheart. Not wanting to lose him, Ozpin offered him a teaching position at Beacon.
Ozpin:It appears yet another freshman class will soon grace the halls of Beacon.
Sword:True even more interesting is the list of those who will attend. The heiress of the Schnee dust company alone is impressive. Yet alone Pyrrha Nikos, the star of Sanctum Academy, is truly a gathering of stars.
Ozpin could only nod in agreement as he looked over the list again. The two talked for a while before Sword said he had to go get into town for something. Of course, his goal was to help a certain silver-eyed girl. Years of preparation were finally about to pay off, so he was understandably excited. With his speed, it only took him a few minutes to make it just in time for a thug to come flying out of a window. Right behind him was a red figure jumping through the broken window. Seeing her Sword's smile get even bigger.
Sword:Well, I never expected to meet such a cute girl during my walk.
Hearing the voice behind her, the girl jumped, thanks to being startled. When she got a good look at who it was, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks. However, she broke out of her daze after noticing they were already surrounded by goons.
???:HI first off my name is Rwby. Second I hope you know how to fight.
Sword:Well Ruby my name is Sword and don't worry beating down some thugs is too easy for me.
Offended by Sword's words one of them rushed forward to stab him. Unfortunately, the poor guy did even get to move a step before getting sent flying. Not a single person saw Sword move let alone hit the thug. Noticing the danger the others became hesitant but a little encouragement from the boss helped.
Ruby:Wow not bad.
Sword:Thanks but I think it is your turn, Ruby.
Nodding she pulled out her weapon shifted and transformed into a scythe. The boss only sighed before kicking one of the thugs toward her. Thus began what could only be referred to as an absolute beat down. Seeing his goons getting taken out so easily the man in a hat finally stepped in. He took a vial of dust and threw it at them before shooting it.
This caused an explosion that obscured his escape to the top of a building. The duo quickly noticed what was going on and chased after him. Once on the roof, they were greeted by the sight of him getting on a chopper. Rudy instantly tried to run up to it but didn't make it before it took off. Again moving quickly she transformed her weapon into a gun to start firing. Sensing danger Roman Torchwick called out to the woman in the back.
Roman:Hey we got two boogies on our tail.
She held her hand out toward Rudy as her clothes lit up. A ball of fire that laughed at Rudy came from the end of her palm. Luckily before she could get hit Ruby was saved by a woman with blonde hair. The then waved the riding crop in her hand as the surrounding rubble began moving. They turned into a spear that flew at the helicopter but was stopped by a fireball. It immediately used that time to escape.
Ruby:Wow that was amazing and you're a real huntress to boot can I have your autograph?
The woman smiled at Ruby giving her hope but soon those were destroyed. Instead of a good job and a pat on the back, she found herself being interrogated. As for the guy that was helping her, he was nowhere to be found. She could only complain mentally as the huntress continued to grill her. Finally, salvation came in the form of Ozpin with a plate of cookies and a glass of milk.
Ozpin:Alright Glynda that is enough we already received a report from a hunter that was on the scene so this is unnecessary.
Glynda looked at Ozpin sighing in resignation and left the room. Alone with Ruby, he set the plate in front of her and sat down to talk to her. On the other side of the wall Sword was watching their conversation.
Glynda:So is there a reason why you guys are going so easy on that girl?
Sword:Well, for one thing, she is quite the skilled fighter and for another she is adorable. Reminds of a certain blonde witch who was always a stickler for the rules.
His flirt caused her to blush from embarrassment as she elbows him in the side. Her reaction made him laugh making her even more embarrassed. Ever since he had transferred here Sword made it his mission to flirt with her as much as possible.
Glynda:Fine I will stop complaining but you must know the hardships she will face.
Sword:When it comes to life any hardship is an opportunity to learn about ourselves. Besides she is Summer's daughter so I think she will do great.
After saying that Sword became quiet to hear Ozpin inviting Ruby to Beacon. Unknown to anyone a shadow appeared revealing a pair of starved eyes. They looked over Ruby like a beast does to its prey. Behind Sword's back invisible to everyone was his gourmet demon. Not even he realized it yet but this was the true began to satisfy his hunger.
