11 No Partners so far (1/2)

Everyone was now at the Beacon cliff and they were overlooking a forest.

There were several students, all of them were the ones that was recently enrolled, and they are standing on silver tiles in front of a mug-holding Professor Ozpin and Glynda with her tablet.

Jin was besides his twin sister and wore a serious look on his face.

”For years, you have trained to become warriors, and today your abilities will be evaluated in the Emerald Forest.” Ozpin said before Glynda steps forward.

”Now, I'm sure many of you have heard rumors about the assignment of 'teams'. Well, allow us to put an end to your confusion. Each of you will be given teammates.....today.”

”What?! Ohhh...” Ruby exclaimed in shock while Jin narrowed his eyes.

”These teammates will be with you for the rest of your time here at Beacon. So it is in your best interest to be paired with someone with whom you can work well.”

Ozpin said which made Ruby groan, but he ignored it as he continues, ”That being said, the first person you make eye contact with after landing will be your partner for the next four years.”

”Whaaaat?!” Ruby exclaimed out loud while Jin could only smirk in anticipation.

'I just wonder who.....I can work with anyone. Even if they're complete apes and morons, I can just carry their asses and 1 v 3'

”See? I told you!” A girl with orange hair said to the person beside her.

”After you've partnered up, make your way 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.” Ozpin said with a serious tone in the end.

”Well this what we sign up for anyway.” Jin muttered under his breath as he rolled his eyes at the obvious thing about the test.

Jaune just laughs nervously and then gulps loudly as Ozpin continues in his instructions.

”You will be monitored and graded through the duration of your initiation, but our instructors will not intervene. You will find an abandoned temple at the end of the path containing several relics. Each pair must choose one and return to the top of the cliff. We will reguard that item, as well as your standing, and grade you appropriately.”

”Now, are there any questions?”

”Yeah, um, sir?” Jaune asked as he raised his hand but Ozpin ignored him and said.

”Good! Now, take your positions.”

Everyone goes on a pose on their tile. The girl in orange hair crouches low, the boy in green clothing takes out his weapons, Yang raises her fists, Ruby readies her body, Jin crouches in a jumping position as he was planning to jump along with the tile as it launches him off, and Jaune was still raising his hand.

”Uh, sir? I've got, um..... a question.” Jaune said as he continues nervously.

”So, this landing.....strategy thing.....Uh, wha-what is it? You're, like, dropping us off or something?”

”No. You will be falling.”

”Oh, uh, I see.....So, like, did you hand out parachutes for us?”

”No. You will be using your own landing strategy.”

”Uh-huh.....Yeah.”

At her turn, Yang winks at her siblings and puts on her aviators glasses before she flies off with a ”Woo-hoooooooo!”

Ruby joins her and then Jin joins the duo as he was launched flying into the air.

He flew into the air for few seconds before he was nearing the ground. He then did a superhero landing with a big boom, leaving a large crater on his landing spot.

Jin looks around and saw that no one was around, he then starts running through the forest with a normal running speed as he was carefully scanning every area for other people.
