Heroes of Haven Reboot (A RWBY AU Quest)

Also, did you guys find the invisatext?

It's not that important but it's funny and I don't want you guys to miss it.
 
You and Albedo rested for an hour, trying to get your bearings and rest your aching muscles. Then you took a look at the contents inside.
"Do you really need to do this to them?" Grey asked.
It was a survival knife, a spare change of clothes, two empty metal canteen bottles, a mirror, one foot of rope, the books of magic you kept on your person at all time and a book on survival.
"Yes." Izumi replied. "I don't want them to get the wrong impression by thinking I would go easy on them.
It also had a note from your mother, which read: "The book is life."
"I know that, but dumping them onto a deserted island?
"What do we do now?" Albedo asked.
"Would you rather I send them to my sister?"
You opened the book and started to read. Absorbing the knowledge within it's pages like a sponge.
Grey sighed. "Good point… Speaking of, are we inviting her over any time soon?"
After a few minutes, you looked towards your brother. "We need to find water."
"God's no, you remember the last time she stayed with us. We had a hole in the kids wall for a month."
Your brother looked towards the body of water you traveled through. The lake was clear blue, untouched by any human contact, save for a small lakeside resort that was across the lake from the island.
"You shouldn't have goaded her into fighting you"
"We found water bro." Albedo stated.
"I was making a joke!"
"But that's not safe to drink you, idiot." You replied.
"A joke on how she is a lonely, military, career-focused women who should try to get a man in her life so she dosen't end up lonely and regretting that she does not have children?"
You both looked at each other, then looked towards the forest. "Mom probably knew there was a water source here that we could use. And enough game for us to live on for a month."
"Okay, it was a bad joke."
You shrugged. "Are you guessing again?"
"Izumi, I know you dislike your sister for her the choices she made, but please try to keep it out of family gatherings."
"Mom knows we do not have the survival skills to really create something that can purify water in massive quantities, but we do have the know how to make the tools using the book." Albedo stated.
Izumi shed a tear. "I know… I just think she'-"
"Into the forest, we do then?" You asked.
"I know. But she made her choices, and you've made yours." Grey took a breath and looked through his binoculars. "How are the boys doing?"
"Why are you expecting me to take the lead? I figured it out." Albedo stated.
Izumi did not need to look through her own binoculars to know what was happening. A mother always knew. "Arguing with each other."
You shook your head. " Yeah, so you should know where it is by that definition."
Grey laughed. "So the usual? They argue than go surpass everyone's expectations?"
Albedo hit you in the shoulder. "You're an idiot."
Izumi smiled. "Yeah… They'll be alright."
You both looked at the forest. The tree's shade covered the floor of the island with a dim light.
Inside, you could hear what lived in it.
"Why did you choose the island anyway?" Grey asked.
You were entering their territory, and if there were any predators among the island's inhabitants… you would have to be on guard.
"You didn't notice the resort we spent our honeymoon at?"
Reaching into your backpack, you pulled out the survival knife, and slide it into your pants pocket.
Grey smiled. "All the time, whenever I'm with you."
"What are you doing?" Albedo asked.
Izumi blushed. "Now hold on there big boy...We've got to make sure the kids survive the week in hell first."
"Being prepared." You replied.
"Dammit." Grey muttered.
On the Second day, you discovered how to feel the magic.
"So… how was the night?" Izumi asked.
It was a small thing, you sat looking at the lake, trying to focus, to center yourself.
"The boys are okay. But they're talking to each other again"
"Feel natures energy." Albedo's book said as he read it aloud. "What the hell does that mean?"
"They have food, they have water, why should we worry?" Izumi asked.
"I don't know." You stated. "Now come on, sit down and meditate."
"Their meditating." Grey stated.
"Why are you doing that, shouldn't we start getting some meat?" He asked.
"Are they trying to activate their aura themselves?" Izumi asked.
"The rabbits will be there Albedo. We just-"
"No… They seem to be doing something else."
Even now, as you sat, the energy went into your body. You placed your hand down and felt it calm you.
"Did they just activate their aura by themselves?" Grey asked.
Albedo gasped but remained silent. Then he screamed. "WE WERE RIGHT! MAGIC DOES EXIST!"
"No. I don't know what they did." Izumi stated, dumbfounded at what she saw.
Albedo pigged out on them when you were not looking.
"Albedo still has his appetite." Grey muttered.
Almost immediately, you felt the energy gather into his hands, and then release. The small firebolt hit the sand and exploded.
"Oh shit." Izumi stated.
You both jumped back and covered your faces as some sand blew towards you.
"What's wrong Izumi?" Grey asked.
"That was awesome!" Albedo shouted as he surveyed the tiny sphere of glass that he made. "Glass!" He ran over to where he hit the sand and felt it with his hands. "It's so smooth!"
"I think they activated their aura, and found out their semblance." Izumi stated.
Hora hora hora!

Also, did you guys find the invisatext?

It's not that important but it's funny and I don't want you guys to miss it.
Are you sure about that?

"Alright." You took a deep breath. "My turn!"
Salem sensed something she thought she would never feel again. Magical energy that reminded her of her past.
You raised your arm and aimed close to where your brother aimed. "Get out of the way you idiot!" You shouted as your brother jumped into the water. The energy pulsed through your body the hairs on your arm stood up from the electricity. "Fulgar!"
It confused her greatly. Enough that she would send a Grimm to investigate.
Then the electric bolt left your hand, thunder boomed in the sky as the electricity made a sculpture of glass on the sand.
It was probably one of the maidens or Ozpin doing something to one of his subordinates again. But better be safe than sorry.
"I know." You had both read the books heard the stories a thousand times.
It cant be these two boys... That is impossible. Salem thought as she saw through her Grimm's eyes.
Than the Grimm attacked, it's black body and red eyes impossible to miss as it struck at your brother.
In all her years alive, she has had numerous false alarms when it came to potential magic wielders. Most only used illusions, and were killed when the Grimm got close to them. Oh well, they were still vulnerable, might as well destroy them... Kill them if you can, if not, ignore them.
"Albedo!" You screamed as you ran at the Grimm, your knife in hand.
You felt the power within the blood. They had the true power within them. Then you remembered the boys from the house. The ones who destroyed your horde.
You dug the blade into the Grimm, and Albedo rolled away. But the Grimm pushed you away as it shook itself.
The records said that they have activated aura… But it seems Ozpin outplayed her.
You landed on your back and stared at the Grimm.
Leave, quickly. Salem ordered.
The Grimm stared but then it ran into the forest. Either losing interest in you or to strike you again.
Back away and wait for orders! She ordered her Grimm. She did not have the time to send a horde, not at such a short notice, and when her Grimm was needed elsewhere.
"How's your hand?" You asked.
Something has happened. Something that neither myself or Ozpin could foresee.
"It was probably already here." You said.
New wildcards… Young, controllable, wildcards.
"No, it's not." You said quietly.
"You boys will be very interesting indeed."
The Grimm fried, disintegrating before it even touched you.
"Watts… I have a new mission for you. One of urgency, and one that requires your position." Salem said.
'Cause these seem pretty important.

Also, I saw a lot of instances of "than" instead of "then", among other errors. Still understandable, but it irks me.

Arc 1: Welcome to Sanctum. Part 1: Sanctum Term Begins.

Your alarm clock was blaring it's mechanical beeping noises when your eyes fluttered open. "Aww… Five more minutes." you groaned as you slapped the snooze button to give you that extra five minutes.

Unfortunately, your brother had other ideas. "WAKE UP Nigredo!" He screamed, causing you to fall out of your bed.

You hit the floor pretty hard."Ow dammit!" You groaned as you rubbed the back of your head. "What's wrong with you? I was trying to sleep."

Your brother smiled. "Mom's got breakfast waiting for us. So get up."

You groaned as you got up on your feet. "Let me go back to sleep." You said.

Your stomach growled in disagreement.

Albedo smiled even bigger than before. "Your stomach offers a compelling counter-argument."

Dammit. You followed your brother downstairs to the restaurant dining room, where two plates of eggs, bacon, and toast were waiting for you.

As you reached the table, your mother spoke. "Eat quickly boys, we have to open up soon." Your mother stated.

"Yes, please hurry to school, I don't need you scaring the customers away with your antics." Your grandmother said.

You ate your food with speed. "Thanks for breakfast mom." You and Albedo said as you finished your food at the same time.

"Your welcome boys… Now hurry, the train leaves in a few minutes." Your mother said.

It was then when you noticed that your father was suspiciously absent. "Where's dad?" You asked.

"He's out doing some errands, now go." Your grandmother ordered.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you got to Sanctum, you saw that it was brimming with an energy that other children brought along.

It felt strange. You and Albedo had been homeschooled for your entire lives, becoming proficient at academics that were required for success, to take advantage of the fact that you were competing with only one other person, and that one person was also your best buddy.

Now you were competing with thirty other people… It was going to be… interesting to say the least. Hopefully, it doesn't leave you, board, and dumb… otherwise coming to this school was a mistake.

But before you had a chance to mingle with the other students, a man clamped his way towards you, his metal boots echoing on the concrete. "Ah, Burgundy boys, I was expecting you."

You turned to see a man with bright golden hair, who was well dressed and armed with a collapsible shield. His shoes were metal boots

"Hello, professor…" You paused. Dammit, you should have memorized the staff list.

"Patroclus." The man replied. "I am going to be taking you to orientation."

"We need to go to the orientation speech?" Albedo asked. "We were told that we wouldn't need to go to orientation."

"Every student goes to it every year." The teacher said. "Professor Chiron delivers a damn good speech."

"Are you serious?" You groaned.

"Yes… Now follow me please." The professor ordered.

Without any chance to argue, the professor dragged you to the large auditorium.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Auditorium was massive, it could easily hold ten thousand people with room for maybe a thousand more if everyone was standing.

You and Albedo sat down near the very back, looking forward to the empty stage in front of you. "There are so many people." He said quietly.

Then a girl with red hair sat down, her face worried, her eyes darting around the room, as people pointed at her, eyeing her with envy and admiration.

Next to Albedo, a boy with blue hair and smirk on his face, with a red jacket, and blue jeans, and he spoke to one of his friends.

What do you do:
[]Talk to the Girl: Introduce yourself to the girl. Maybe she needs a friendly face to talk to.
[]Talk to the boy with blue hair: Introduce yourself to the boy with blue hair.
[]Talk to your brother: Talk to your brother about the school.
[]Pay attention to the Stage: Where's Professor Chiron? Wasn't he supposed to be giving a… Oh never mind he's here… who's the other guy next to him?

I'm prety sure the red haired girl is Pyrrha since she has red hair, is popular, and seems to not like the popularity.

If it is true however I wonder how young tournament fighters begin their careers.
 
I think that was question about how young tournament fighters start actually participating in tournaments, not how young they start training.

Or are there tournaments for kids that young?
Oh. They can join tournaments when they are 12, except for Sanctum tournaments that the school puts on that have all students participate, those students are 13.
