Hi! Its me again! I'm back! I know its been awhile, but I need motivation to continue my writing. Remember to review, as that that helps me continue my writing. As always, please leave your favourite quote from this chapter in the reviews. Now, on to the story!

Kyle P.O.V

I nodded at Sans, and we all went down to the relics. Pyrrha and Jaune took a white rook, and so did Ren and Nora. Ruby, Yang, Blake, and Weiss all took the white knight pieces, and me and Sans already had our piece, the white king. We decided that, since we got our relics, we should head back to Beacon. But before we did, I looked around us. There were patches of scorched earth, giant holes in the ground, and fallen tees, crushed and shattered by the Ursa Majors.

I was glad I hadn't needed to use my semblance very much in the fight, or else the destruction could have been even worse. I shuddered at the thought of what I could have caused. The less I have to use my semblance, the better. I had a feeling Sans felt the same way, considering he hadn't used his semblance at all, and had elected to stay back and watch the battle instead. His choice was not one that I fully supported, but we got through the fight just fine without him.

I idly wondered who would we would be partnered with, because if Sans kept up with his laziness, I made need some very skilled teammates to pick up his slack. I glanced around at the large group of us. Pyrrha was a very good fighter, and would make a great teammate, but Jaune... I wasn't too sure about Jaune. He didn't seem to be that good of a fighter, but I didn't see him fight enough to accurately judge. Ren and Nora on the other hand were both very skilled fighters.

Nora was a bit hyper, but Ren counterbalanced that with his icy calmness in even the most dangerous situations. They would make great partners. But in the end, I had no real control over who my partner would be, so I might as well quit worrying about it. But the thought kept nagging at the back of my mind. Who would my partners be? Would they be nice, or mean? Strong, or weak? I had no real way of telling until I found out who they were.

But my mind didn't care, and I kept on thinking about it anyways. Quite awhile passed while I was pondering the ever important, yet still unanswerable question, and eventually I found myself at the exit of the emerald forest.

"Well", I said, "I guess this is it, huh. Until next time guys."

A chorus of "until next time" rang among us, until we dispersed into the legendary beacon academy.

-Time skip: The next day, opening ceremony-

I stood next to sans, anxiously awaiting our team to be called. We had yet to determine who our teammates would be, so we had no clue who we were going to be teamed up with. After an agonizing eternity of waiting, our team was finally called

"The next team is Sans Serif, Kyle Yiros, Kira Ellato, and Lily Mirad. Together they make team SKKL(Skull), lead by Sans Serif"

I grinned at Sans as we walked up to the stage. He winked at much, and motioned to the other side of the room, as two girls came walking up the other side. Those must be Kira and Lily, our new teammates.

I observed them, and tried to find out as much as I could just from looking at them. The first one was medium height, probably around 5'10, with jet black hair and a grin plastered on her face. The second one was a bit shorter, maybe 5'8, with white hair, and a large staff in her right hand. She looked very nervous, crouching down and practically hiding behind her partner.

We made arrived on the stage, and took a bow as everyone applauded. Together, we walked back in to the crowd. I tuned out the rest of the team making, and decided instead to learn a bit more about our new teammates. I turned to black haired one and said,

"So, you're Kira right? My name is Kyle Yiros, nice to meet you."

I extended my hand to her, and she shook it, saying,

"Yeah, I'm Kira, and this is my partner Lily. Nice to meet you too."

We all shook each others hands and exchanged greetings.

"So" said Sans, breaking the silence "We might as well get right down in to the important stuff, huh. I'll go first. My name is Sans Serif, and I use my semblance to fight. That's because I have a very strong semblance, the ability to create and control small magical bones, as well as a type of telekinesis, and... well, you'll see eventually" he finished vaguely.

Kira nodded, and took her turn.

"My name is Kira Ellato, my weapons are dual wielded knives that can also shoot .40 calibre rounds out of a barrel in the handle, and my semblance is teleportation." she said, showing us the barrel of her "knives". I wouldn't even call them knives, as they were very long, just short of the length of my forearm.

I decided that I should go next, seeing as Lily seemed to be very shy, and stated my abilities.

"My name is Kyle Yiros, My weapon is a large double handed sword with a built in .50 calibre sniper rifle at the top of the handle, which fires in the direction my sword is facing, so if I point the tip of my sword at someone, the shot will fire at them. My semblance is..." I hesitated, not wanting to tell them the truth. I elected to them half of the truth, and tell the other half once I know that I can trust them.

"Making things explode" I finished.

Kira and Sans furrowed their eyebrows at me, knowing this wasn't the full truth. Luckily, neither of them decided to comment on it. We all looked at Lily, who gulped, and started to speak.

"Um, uh, my name is uh, Lily, my weapon is this staff and orb, which I enchanted using my semblance so that I can control them." She said in a small voice.

She showed us a metal orb on the top of her staff, about twice the size of my fist. It glowed faintly, and almost seemed to vibrate. After showing us the orb, we fell in to an unwelcome silence.

Sans took this moment of awkward silence to pipe up with a question,

"Your semblance allows you to enchant things? How? And can you be a little more specific about what you mean by 'enchanting'?"

Lily looked a bit stunned that someone actually cared about her semblance. She stood up a little taller, and elaborated on her previous statement.

"Well first off, normal enchanting is basically changing certain properties of just about anything as long as its not a living thing, like a plant or a person. Enchanting could make something sharper, stronger, or more powerful. But those are just basic enchantments, my enchanting is different, and waaay cooler in my opinion. I can add special abilities on to non-living things. Like for my orb here, I enchanted it so i can control it with my mind, and change what dust type its using."

To demonstrate, she made the ball fly up in to the air, and circle us a few times. It then started to glow yellow, and electricity zapped around it.

"Right now, i have it charged with yellow dust, so its electric. But, at any moment, I could change it too, say, red dust, which means it will cause minor explosions on contact with other objects. Like this."

She then rammed the orb in to the ground, causing a small explosion to go off. We all gasped, thinking that she must have harmed her weapon, but it flew up out of the dust, completely fine, without a single scratch.

We all stared at her weapon in awe. It was by far the coolest weapon I had ever seen. The metal orb returned to the top of Lily's staff.

"Cool, right?" she asked us, grinning from ear to ear.

"Cool!" I spluttered "That was the coolest weapon I've ever seen! And to think that you made it yourself!"

Lily blushed a little, and responded,

"Aww, thanks. If you didn't notice, i get very exited about my weapon and semblance. Its nice to know someone else appreciates it."

"Yeah, it's awesome." I responded. Then I grinned cheekily, and said

"Besides, it got you to speak without hiding behind Kira."

Everyone laughed a little at that, and Lily responded indignantly,

"I'm just really shy around new people, okay? Its not like you're perfect"

Sans turned to me, and grinning said

"You, sir, just got roasted. Did that get you all fired up?"

Lily and Kira laughed at that, but I just mentally prepared myself for the barrage of puns that Sans will surely unleash.

"Why you blushing there? Is your face burning up?"

Another bad pun from Sans, accompanied by slightly less laughter from Lily and Kira.

"Don't worry, i can keep fire-ing off these puns for ages."

This time Sans's pun was followed by a very small amount of laughter from Kira

"Yeah, I'm really burning up my supply of puns"

Thus time there was no laughter, only groans.

"What, no laughter? I thought I was on fire with these puns."

We all stared at him, expecting more puns.

"What, I'm done. Cant think of any more." he said, shrugging.

He then turned around, and beckoned for us to follow him.

"Wanna check out our dorm room? Follow me." he said.

As we made our way over to the dorm room, I couldn't help but think that this year might be one of the best years of my life.

So, how did you like it? I know it took awhile, but don't expect regular updates, because they wont come. Remember to review, and have a good day!
