[Location: Vale streets]

(Y/n)'s p.o.v.

What. The fuck. Is that? As I was walking around Vale for some fresh air, I looked down an alley and noticed a very familiar red cloak. I was going to say hello to her for shits and giggles until I saw... that thing.

It has pale skin and freckles, green eyes and ginger hair. But what caught my attention was it's skin, it's voice, it's soul.

None of it was real.

I hid behind a corner and listen to what they are saying.

Ruby: Penny, I-I don't understand.

Penny: Most girls are born, but I was made. I'm the world's first synthetic person capable of generating an aura.

Fucking what?!

Penny:... I'm not real.

Ya damn right.

Ruby: Of course you are.

No no, don't counsel it!

Ruby: You think just because you've got nuts and bolts instead of squishy guts makes you any less real than me?

Penny: I don't, um... You're taking this extraordinarily well.

Better than I am.

Ruby: You're not like those things we saw back there. You've got a heart and a soul, I can feel it.

I can't.

Penny: Oh! Oh Ruby! You're the best friend anyone could have!

Penny grabs Ruby's head and hugs her in what little bosom it has.

Ruby: "muffled" I can see why your father would want to protect such a delicate flower!

Penny let's go of Ruby.

Penny: Oh, he is very sweet. My father's the one that built me! I'm sure you would just love him!

Ruby: Wow, he built you all by himself?

Penny: Well almost, he had some help from Mr. Ironwood.

Ruby: The general? Wait, is that why the soldiers were after you?

Penny: They like to protect me too!

Ruby: Pfft. They don't think you can protect yourself?

Penny: They're not sure if I'm ready yet. One day, it will be my job to save the world.

Alright, I've heard enough. I walk away from the alley and decide to head back to Beacon.

(Y/n): Not sure if you're ready? Hmph. In this world, no one ever is.

[Location: Beacon court yard]

(Y/n): Oh shit. What if there are more like Penny all around and have been replacing regular people for the sake of infiltration? That would make an interesting plot for a video game...

Velvet: (y/n), say cheese!

(Y/n): Havarti?

*flash*

Turning around, I am met with bright flash. As my eyes readjust from this, I can now see Velvet standing in front of me with a camera.

(Y/n): Hello to you too.

Velvet: Hehe. Sorry. I'm working on my photography.

(Y/n): interesting. How's it going with you?

Velvet: Pretty good... Listen, I've been wanting to say this. Thank you.

(Y/n): What about?

Velvet: That talk we had a few days ago in the hall. It just... I don't know. After that day, I have felt more confident with myself lately. The bullying has stopped and my grades have even gotten better. So, thank you... again.

(Y/n): You're welcome, Velvet.

She gives me a smile before taking her leave. I watch her leave as I let out a sigh.

(Y/n):....... Now I almost feel bad for what I did to her. Almost.

As it starts to get dark, I make my way to the dorms.

[The next day]

As my team and I get ready for classes, Elly barges in holding her scroll out... again.

Elly: Guys! You're not gonna believe this!

She holds her scroll out for us to see.

Brock:............. Oh my gawd!

Elly: I know, it's crazy!

(Y/n): Grow your penis larger by taking this pill once a week?

Natalie: Elly, is there something you want to talk about?

She brings her scroll back to her and taps it roughly.

Elly: Fucking ADS!!!

After that she shows us her scroll again.

Natalie:...... Oh my goodness.

Brock: There was a mech on a rampage last night?

Elly: And apparently it was being driven by Roman fucking Torchwick.

(Y/n): It says here that twenty people died in the process.

Elly: Welp, come on guys. We're going to be late for class.

(Y/n): You have Brock to blame for that.

Brock: Hey! I need my beauty sleep!

(Y/n): Boy, you need a beauty coma.

Elly: Ha!

Brock: Screw both of you.

[Location: Combat class]

Sigh. Another day. Another class where I don't get to fight anyone. After Mercury challenged Pyrrha then forfeit the match, I start to think I will never get the chance-

Glynda: Mr. (l/n).

May have spoke too soon!

Glynda: I suppose I have left you on the bleachers for too long. Please go get ready while I set up the match.

I get up and stretch my back, receiving several pops from it. Walking over to fetch my equipment, a smile starts to grow on my face.

You can only train with someone for so long before you accidentally let loose.

Salem: Well. I can see you have no love for the an-
