Hunter in the Wild

Chapter 10

After one night of interesting dreams that could only be described as flat out weird, I woke up at what is considered late for me. It was about ten in the morning, and I was the only one in the dorm. I slung my legs over the side of the bed, and studied the room. Everything was right where it was left from the night before. Except one thing, there was now a note on my nightstand, with a water bottle. I picked up the note and read it.

'Hey Felix, myself, Vlad and Ethan are gonna be in the training hall with team JNPR for the morning. Here's something to remind you to pick what we need. Axios, Noah.'

I sighed and looked at the bottle. It was half empty and had a frowny face drawn on it.

"Real mature," I mumbled to myself. "Also I thought it was your turn. Eh, whatever"

I threw the note in the trash, and got dressed. I chose some to shorts and a T-shirt Ruby and Yang picked out for me. Both were a black with fire orange accents. My Nightstalker tattoo was barely showing out from under the sleeve. I wouldn't say I looked good by any standards, but I didn't look terrible either. I threw my wallet in my pocket and then turned towards the door to go get some supplies. As my hand reached the knob, I realized there was something around it. A necklace of sorts, with yet another note attached to it. So I read this one as well.

'Hey, thought we were done? NOPE! This is from Weiss, she said if we're gonna act the part of specialists from Atlas, we might as well look like it. Here are some Atlas Military Dog Tags, they're already customized to you. She had her sister, who's a REAL Atlas Specialist mind you. Have fun at the store.'

I smirked and looked at the tags. I used to have a pair before the collapse, I mean in my first life. Don't know what happened to them, but now I have these.

I slid them over my head and let them hang out over my shirt. I then finally walked out the door, making sure I shut it behind me.

'Ready buddy?' I thought asking Ghost. As I asked him I was walking down the hall, then went down the stairs.

"You bet sir, and if I might say, I like this planet." He replied.

I smiled a little and spoke, "so do I Ghost."

As I made it to the final floor, I saw Ozpin talking with Glynda. He still had his coffee cup, and she still looked pissed at something. I smirked and walked up behind them, but before I could say anything, Ozpin turned and looked at me.

"Ah, Mr. Garrison," he said, "just the student I wanted to see."

To say the least, I was confused. "And why is that?"

"I was hoping we could talk about a mission for your team."

"I was actually thinking about something that I wanted to run by you."

"Why don't we head to my office and discuss this? Wouldn't want someone to overhear us and want a mission as well."

"If you insist, sir."

He nodded and motioned for me to follow. He then started walking towards the tower in the center of Beacon. When we reached the tower, he and I stepped into the elevator and got to the very top. Didn't realize how tall this tower was until we stepped in that elevator.

"Couldn't we start talking here?" I offered.

"Yes but it wouldn't be as dramatic," he replied.

"Fair enough."

After a few minutes, the elevator stopped and we stepped out.

"Please, have a seat." Ozpin said to me motioning to a chair in front of his desk.
