First Team (4)

They both went towards the cliff where Ozpin and Glynda was waiting for them. Most students were there and were waiting until the others came.

"Go towards one of the platforms and stand there." Glynda pointed at Faith and Yatsu. "Got it Glynda." Faith waved his hands in the air. Everyone just looked at him a bit dumbfounded. This student just disregarded a teacher and casually called out her first name. Some of them even waited in anticipation of what kind of trouble he would get in.

"Faith, talk with respect." She glared at him. He then made an exaggerated bow. "Of course it is my fault. I will reflect on my actions as the test goes on." She was about to reprimand him when Ozpin intervened.

"Faith don't rile her up." He then looked at all the students present. "Now then, I hope all of you are ready. Because today we will be deciding which team you will be a part of. Each and everyone of you have passed the examination to enter this school. Although that test was to see how skilled each of you were, it didn't show your real skills in life and death combat."

Ozpin then pointed at the forest below the cliff. "You will all have to select a relic that is inside this forest. Bring that relic with you to the cliff to pass the exam. Make your own landing strategy to go to the forest."

"On that note, you will all have to join a team. Today." A few groans and whispers were heard from the student. "The team you join will be with you for the rest of your stay in the academy. So it is in your best interest to be partnered with someone you get along with." Another wave of whispers were heard.

"That being said, the first person you make eye contact with after landing will be your partner for the next 4 years." Everyone was just stressed now. They had to have good partners but they can't even choose them. They all thought it was unfair but decided not to voice it as the director was in front of them.

"After you've been partnered up, make your to the Northern end of the forest. You will meet opposition along the way. Do not hesitate to destroy everything in your path... or you will die." An ominous voice was brought out but soon turned to his normal teaching voice.

"You will be monitored and graded for the duration of your initiation. But our instructors will not intervene."

"Now are there any questions?" No one raised any hands. "Good now take your positions." Everyone began preparing themselves for their 'landing strategy'. Faith took out his spear and was preparing when someone tapped his shoulder. He looked at his left only to find the girl with a suitcase.

"Do you need anything?"

"I was just wondering how you know the teachers. It looks like you guys have known each other from how you interact." The students began being launched into the forest.

"Yea I've known them for a while. They aren't as strict as you think they are." He then began thinking about all the times they scolded him. "Nevermind, they are very strict. What I mean is that they aren't so bad to not get along with."

"I wasn't worrying. Was just trying to have a conversation before we go." Her pad then launched her in the sky.

Faith smiled wearily. "Didn't even get to ask for her name." His pad then launched him in the sky. As he was in the air, he began daydreaming. 'I wonder if I'll get to fight a giant Grimm. Although, it still wouldn't be able to stand a chance against him.' A smirk was on him.

'What landing strategy should I do.' Faith was beginning to fall down. Just as he was about to hit the trees. He used his spear to stick it in between 2 huge trees. He then threw himself and landed on his spear. 'I wonder what relic Ozpin chose this time. But first...'

He began hearing gunfire across the forest. Birds began flocking away from the sound so he went to the opposite direction they went to. There he found a group of 2 already together. It was Yatsu and that suitcase girl. They were under attack by multiple grimms.

POV- Yatsuhashi

The moment I landed, I immediately rushed in the forest. I needed to find a teammate and find a relic as fast as possible to have a good grade. Although it would be preferable to get with Faith, I can find another partner.

Growls began getting closer and closer. Grimms began surrounding me. Their eyes were easily visible in this forest. These Beowolves are nothing to me. I took out my giant sword. A good thing about my weapon is that it's best used in fights against monsters of Grimm. My swings are powerful enough to shatter the ground and the length and width of the sword is good enough to hit multiple of them at once.

They began jumping on towards me. I used all my strength to hit the ground blasting them outside while shattering the ground I was on. More kept coming towards me but I kept fighting them off.

"I don't have time for this. I need to find someone-" Just then a girl swung her weapon at a Grimm and hit him making him crash unto others. She then took off her sunglasses looking at me. "Hey... friend, mind finishing them on your side. You can leave the rest to me."

Her suitcase slowly transformed into a giant minigun. Her gun began rotating as she vaporized the Grimms in seconds. She then looked at me with a smirk. "Need help taking care on your side." I began feeling like she looked down on me. "Don't underestimate me." 4 Grimms jumped at me but I made a huge swing splitting them in half.

"Seems like you guys are already a team." A voice sounded out in the forest. No clear distinction of where the voice came from. We turned our backs to each other and began preparing for a fight. Even though fighting between student wasn't on the 'to do list'. It didn't mean that there would be no fighting. The silent pressure fell upon us. I could feel a gaze upon us as I focused on the voice.

"Why so tense? Not recognizing your friend." The voice sounded out behind me as I instantly turn around and swing my blade. The girl did the same, transforming her weapon into a suitcase and swinging it. But both of them were caught by the mysterious voice. My sword was blocked by a spear and her suitcases was hit by a leg.

The ground shattered from how powerful the strikes were yet our weapons weren't budging. I then looked at the origin of the voice only to find Faith. He blocked both of our blows without even having a scratch.

"Well, I'll try to find my teammate. See you guys around." He then walked off into the forest until he was out of our sight. We were left dumbfounded without having a word of explanation to what happened.
