That's right!! It's time for Team RWBY and Team JNPR to receive their starter Pokémon!! It took me days to figure out which one deserves to be with who and at last I've done it. Some were meant to be, some may be strange, but in the end it all goes well. Now enough of my rambling and on with the story!!

A few days passed since the incident in Port's class and Weiss was still resting in the Infirmary. She heard a knock on the door and looked to see that Cynthia came in to visit her. Walking over beside her, she takes a seat in the chair and faced her with a look of worry.

"How've you been holding up?" She asks.

"The nurse said I'm recovering nicely. Just a few more hours of rest and I'll be cleared to leave." She said.

Cynthia nods, but didn't seem satisfied. "I'm glad that you're making a quick recovery, but how are you feeling mentally? From what I've heard, that Salamence was something to be feared."

Weiss' face flinched at the memory, but she didn't let that stop her from looking at Cynthia. The pain was gone, but it still lingered. "What do you mean?"

"Where my husband is from, many people who experienced a Salamence attack are considered lucky if they survive. You see, when enraged, Salamence lose all sense of theirself and attack everything in sight. They're considered dangerous and hard to train." Cynthia explained.

Weiss took that information in with a heavy conscience. Had that other Salamence not save her, the other one would've destroyed everything it saw and leave Beacon Academy in ashes.

"I'm... relieved. But-" she hesitates. Cynthia nodded, understanding even though Weiss said nothing after.

"You don't have to talk about it until you're ready. But remember that you have your team to help you." She said.

Weiss scoffs at the mention of her "team". She didn't think very highly of them, especially her so called ,"Leader". Cynthia notices this and frowns at her.

"I see that something else is bothering you..."

Weiss sighs. "Yes. Yes indeed..." She responds with a low tone. Cynthia lays a hand on her shoulder, promoting the heiress to look at her.

"Well then, tell me what troubles you. I may have the answers." She tells her.

With a deep sigh, Weiss struggles to say what was on her mind. "W-well...I-I think I should have been the leader of Team RWBY!" She finally says. Cynthia remainy silent for a bit. The older woman's expression does not change, but she then opens her mouth.

"Weiss, I know it's not what you want to hear, but that's selfish!" She simply responds, making Weiss frown immediately.

"Excuse me?!" She gives the teacher a raised response. Cynthia nods as she folds her arms.

"I may not have known Professor Ozpin for long, but the man's never once led anyone astray." She claims.

"So you would just blindly accept his decision even after seeing how exceptional I am?" She dared say. Cynthia sighs. She had enough of this.

"Weiss, with all due respect, your skill in fighting is only matched by your attitude!" She says, causing Weiss to jump back

"How dare you?" She glares at the woman. Cynthia sighs.

"My point exactly." She responds. "I see a girl before my eyes who has gotten exactly what she wanted over the span of her entire life."

Weiss crosses her arms, though it was painful, while having a defiant look on her face. "That's not even remotely true..." Cynthia's gaze on her causes her face to waver a bit.
