For as long as Ruby Rose remembered, she wanted to be a Huntress, just like the heroes in the stories her mother would read to her and her sister when they were younger. For the most part she was well on her way to achieving that goal, but then something happened along the way. She started to get a little bit lazy.
She could still fight and move when she had to, but mostly just lounged around and stuffed her face in her free time. This combined with her lack of motivation to exercise, caused her to put on a few pounds. She wasn't thin anymore but rather plump. Her sister Yang got her to move from time to time but all that really did was keep her from getting heavier.
As fate would have it though that wouldn't stop her from advancing further on career path. The headmaster of Beacon took notice of her after stopping a robbery in the kingdom. She just so happened to be in the right place at the right time and was rewarded. Not only with free chips from the shop owner but a place at Beacon two-years early.
Yang and her father were excited for her, and she was too, and this led to them going out to eat to celebrate. This caused Ruby to sleep in if not for Yang she wouldn't have gotten ready to head out to the airship in time. The whole ride she was asleep until touching down on the academy grounds.
It was everything she thought it would be and then some and she couldn't help but admire all the cool weapons everyone brought with them as she munched on the mini bag of cookies she brought along for the ride. Yang eventually ditched her to go talk to her friends and this left Ruby alone to spy some guys dropping some luggage off for a girl in white.
Since she didn't know where to go for orientation, she figured she may as well ask the girl. She definitely looked smart and well organized. "Excuse me?"
The girl in white turned towards the chubby girl in red who looked about as short as her and twice as wide. "Can I help you?"
"I'm kind of lost. Do you know where orientation is supposed to be?" Ruby asked. Hopefully this wouldn't be a waste of time.
