Sorry for my bad english. One more fanfict about a lone wolf on Beacon Academy. I will try make it more creative possible. Here come a fic about friendship, ideals, sadness and problems. I will try make this more serious that i can. To the fic!


It is not so hard to stand out in Beacon.

Jaune Arc stands out for start being the weakest student in Beacon, but show improvement on his skills. Cardin Winchester stands out for be the biggest douchebag of the first year of the school. And finally Velvet Scarlatina stands out for be the only bunny faunus on the school.

Jaune never notice that. Maybe because he thought that Pyrrha was the one who more stand out due her popularity, until he came.

A silver colored hair, white skin, a aviator jacket with a black shirt below with a cranium stamped on the chest, ripped jeans pants and a aviator goggle on the forehead. But the most striking thing on him wasn't his tiger tail, but his blue and green eyes, showing absolutely nothing. A direct look on his eyes would make someone think that he was dead. But time by time, he show his bad side, a side that no one in Beacon wanted to see.

His names is Elihas Darkwood and Jaune knew, he was dangerous.

He was the typical lone wolf that didn't wanted to be around the others. Everytime in the lunch, he was seen sitting alone in the corner of the cafeteria. Everytime in the classes, he was sitting in the corner of the room alone. To some people he is just a socially awkward guy who don't know how to talk to people. To others just some meek coward trying pose a lone wolf to make style. But all was before he lost control.

To know what happened, let's go back a few weeks ago.


Jaune didn't planned meet him or be his friend, but someone have to show the school to the new guy and Ozpin decide that was going to be the leader of JNPR.

He just left the elevator with the new guy behind him and start to show the school to him.

-Sooo Elihas. -Jaune started. -Where did you come from?

-... Mistral.

-Ohhh. My partner come from Mistral too. You may know her. Pyrrha Nikos? Champion of the Mistral Tournament? Y'know right?

-... Yes.

-Good. Because she is from Mistral... like you. She may know you?

-... No.

Elihas kept one hand on a pocket and the other holding his backpack. Maybe would be better if Ozpin had chosen someone that is not a socially akward person. First stop were in the lockers, Elihas had to guard his weapon, a simple sword, the blade have a light blue color while the handhold was dark blue colored. He just puts the weapon on the locker and close it. Next step were the classrooms, Jaune have to show to him all classrooms to when he start to attend the classes. Now he take Elihas to the cafeteria. It was saturday, so the place was more occupied than usual. Jaune didn't saw any familiar face there, he look to Elihas who walked to where was the food and grab a sandwich.

The next stop was the arenas. He thought that Elihas's mood would rise a little with the look of the arena, but his face didn't change since he meet him on Ozpin's office.


*Flashback*

-Mr Arc. Don't need to take a sit. This will be quickly.

-I'm in some trouble again?

-Do not worry Mr. Arc. I just want you to do me a little favor and show the school to a new student that just came today.

-Show the school?

-Yes. He is coming from the elevator right now. -The door opened and the first thing Jaune notice was the tiger tail behind the new student. The second thing was his eyes, both with a different color from another, but what really caught his attention, was how empty they seemed. -Mr Arc. -Ozpin get Jaune out from his thoughts. -This is Elihas Darkwood. Mr. Darkwood, this is Jaune Arc, he will show you the school grounds.

-Uhh nice to meet ya?

-... Right.

Was all Elihas said.


Jaune was having difficult to keep calm with someone who is face don't change no matter what he does or see. In the arena, he found the familiar faces of team CFVY. They were training, of course. But only three of them were in the arenas, two fighting against each other and the big one fighting against a classmate. Velvet was just sitting on the bench writing something on a notebook. She look to the arena then back to her notes, when she look ahead, her vision caught Jaune and the boy on his side and like the blonde, she was caught staring into his eyes, then she notice that he was looking back at her. Even like that, she couldn't break the eye contact. Jaune put a hand on Elihas's shoulder.

-Hey, something's wrong?

-... Nothing.

-Come on. Over here is the locker room.

Elihas start to follow Jaune, but Velvet keep lookin at him. Thinking on those eyes.


Now was time to Jaune show the courtyard. The place was full of activity like always on Saturdays. He show all around the place to the newcomer, hoping to change his mood, finally seemed to work. Elihas's face showed some calmness when he look to the trees. A little far away from them, Cardin just saw the newbie student and smiled when notice his tiger tail. One more of the "freaks" to him pick up for fun. But now, he was busy. The fun will start in the next time they meet on the corridors or even in the combat class.

He walk away, but smiling evily like he always do when meet a new "animal" to play.


The last stop were the dormitories. After Jaune got him and Elihas lost for a couple of minutes, they finaly arrived on the door of newcomer room. Elihas use his scroll to open the door and enter in the room. The place was empty of course. No sheets on the beds, nothing glued on the walls, nothing. Elihas just arrived after a couple of months after the initiation, so he didn't have a partner or a team yet, meaning that he have the entirely dorm room to himself until Ozpin make a team where he will make part.

Elihas just threw his backpack on the bed and sat down on the matress. His face looking down to the floor, then notice Jaune still looking at him.

-What?

-Oh! N-Nothing. It just... a little warning. The breakfast start on the seven the morning and end on the half past eight. Sooo, this give to you half hour to get ready for the class.

-... Something else?

-Yes. Try make in the classes in time. The professors don't like when a student is late.

-... Right.

Jaune look around, then back to the faunus, chuckling a little.

-Riiiiight. I see you around then. Bye!

Jaune close the door.

-... Bye. -Elihas looks around the empty space that is his dorm room, thinking on his actual situation. -A combat school, huh? -He put both hands behind his head and laid on the bed, his eyes looking to the ceiling of the room. -Do you think that place gonna change me Alice? Wait to see how wrong you are.


Next day

Never be late for the class. How could Velvet forget that? She always lose the time when start to read some book. Right now, she was holding her scholar books and running in the direction of Peach's class. When she turned the corner of the corridor, ended bumping in someone and making her books fall on the floor. She was about to apologise...

-Out of my way.

But the one who she bumped just pushed her off from the way. She expected that since she is a faunus, but didn't expect that from someone of the same heritage of her. She recognized the faunus as the tiger faunus that was with Jaune a day before. While grabbing back her books, she wonder what could make the new guy so pissed in his first day. Maybe someone bothered him due his faunus heritage. Was like that with her too on her first day on the academy. She also know how hard is be a new student in a new school. No friends and nobody to talk. Would be hard, specially if that person is a faunus. Maybe any time, she would try make company to him. Make a better start on his new life of Beacon by talking to someone friendly. She will think on that later, she still need make in time on the classroom.


History class

Jaune was sitting with a arm suspending his head when his ears caught the sound of a door opening. By instinct, he look to the front door and saw Elihas making his way to a seat in the front of the room. He look to Jaune, he waved his arm to Elihas, but he didn't make nothing. Just keep walking.

-Bad morning, i see.

Jaune mumbled. Doctor Oobleck appeared in the classroom like a green blur running in high speed like he always do.

-Good morning students and i see that we have a new guest on the class today. -From the front of his desk and run to where was Elihas. -You must be Mr. Darkwood, right? -Elihas just nodded. -Good. You have all materials necessary for this class? -Again he nodded. -Not much of words, are you? Well, your actions will talk loud than your words.

Dr. Oobleck didn't know how right he was in that moment.


End of the chapter. My attempt for a more serious fic than what i normaly do. Just exploring new territories for a fic. I know that will not be easy, but i will try anyway. The chapter was short for the begining, so the next chapters will have more words than this one. I will also use this to learn how to write more serious stuffs on my fics. They say that the experience is the better teacher, who are they? I have no idea, are only words from the cartoons and movies.

See you next time.
