Remnant; Time: 2017, August 12th, 1:27 P.M. Location: Beacon Academy, Ophelia's Office.

——

Ruby, Weiss, And Pyrrha as for Sterling and Diana left for Ophelia's Office. After all, Sterling was well aware of the speech that would spill from Ophelia's lips, a well-rehearsed string of words laced with wisdom and authority. Now Sterling & Diana were waiting in Ophelia's Office.

Pov: Headmistress Ophelia

"It's truly intriguing how the start of the Beacon school year still manages to fill me with hope," I thought aloud.

After my speech, Professor Goodwitch & I met in the elevator that provides access to my office. "In what sense, Professor?" My voice asked.

"After 80 years of training Remnant's protectors, Any normal person would assume a certain degree of apathy would be present."

I replied, Sighing, to Professor Goodwitch.

"But no, Every passing year I still have hope in the new generation. Particularly this year with a silver-eyed warrior among the freshmen, Perhaps the last one on the planet."

With an arched eyebrow, The professor questioned me. "You have great faith in this young woman because she's Summer's daughter?"

"Silver eyes are notorious in the fight against the Grimm, With a few years of training, Miss Rose could be capable of reclaiming Mount Glenn."

Reclaiming Glenn would erase the kingdom's biggest defeat against "Her," we would have an outpost connected to the capital by an underground transportation system, And the increased morale of Vale's population would keep the Grimm at bay for months if not years.

My optimistic thoughts were interrupted by a shocking scene when the elevator door opened, Revealing my office with a young man sitting in my chair, with his feet propped up on something metallic on my desk.

Beside him stood an enchanting woman, Her long, straight hair glistening like polished onyx, cascading gracefully down to her waist. Her eyes, A striking shade of aurora blue, sparkled with an ethereal light, captivating anyone who dared to meet her gaze.

"You have just Five Seconds to justify your actions, Young man." Glynda threatened, Her piercing gaze fixed upon him. She pointed an authoritative finger, Her voice laced with a steely intensity that hung in the air like an impending storm. Pointing her weapon, The Disciplinarian, at the boy.

The young man, His wild hair a striking cascade of snowy white that danced with the slightest breeze, locked his slate blue eyes onto Goodwitch, a gaze unwavering and intense. He met her steady stare with a confidence that seemed to shimmer in the air between them, His expression steady and unyielding.

"I apologize for putting my feet on your desk, I was just bored & used my shield to keep it clean." Does he think we're concerned about him dirtying the desk?

"That should be the least of your concerns. I don't recognize you, So you must be one of the initiates, right?" He answered, Nodding his head.

"Consider yourself eliminated & consider yourself lucky not to leave here in handcuffs, Boy!" He smiled and looked in my direction.

"Brave & Loyal?" Was he talking to me? "That's why you have her as your second in command, Huh, Ozpela!" The boy responded in a cynical tone, Looking me in the eyes.

Glynda continued with her lectures & threats, But I didn't pay attention to them because in front of me was someone who knew the name of my first incarnation.

The mysterious young man kept smiling at me as if he hadn't just blurted out one of my best-kept secrets.

"Professor Goodwitch!" I exclaimed aloud.

Glynda paused in the middle of her lecture & looked at me in surprise. This was the kind of thing she dealt with when it came to a student misbehaving, But this was no ordinary student.

"I just remembered that I have an appointment with this young man." If he were an agent of Salem, he would have already attacked us.

"Apologies for my lateness, Once Professor Goodwitch leaves, we can begin." Despite my suspicion, Glynda was loyal enough to follow orders without questioning.

"Don't even think about it, You Dumbledore with a scarf."

"Dumble-who?" I tried to question the comparison, But the young man simply kept talking.

"She stays." The mysterious young man pointed his finger at Glynda.

"May I know why you're arguing about my presence without even considering my opinion?"

The boy got up from my chair and placed a knife & a pistol on the table. The boy looked at the beautiful woman and gave her a look and she too put her weapons on my desk.

"I came here to help you, Ozpela." He walked towards us. "But Glynda needs to know."

"What do I need to know?" Glynda asked, sounding unsure.

"Everything that Ophelia didn't tell you about the secret war. Why Salem wants the Relics, His relationship with the Grimm Queen, the Gods, And my favorite part." He cleared his throat before continuing. "Salem cannot be killed."

End POV

Pov: Glynda Goodwitch

'It can't be true... The secret war we fight for humanity is just a lovers' quarrel?' Glynda said in her mind.

If the relics are brought together, They will summon the Gods who will judge us... And given the current state of Remnant, We will all be destroyed.

And worst of all, Even if we manage to invade Salem's castle, it will be futile because the Grimm queen is immortal!

Not a limited immortality like Ophelia's reincarnation, But a true immortality that rebuilds flesh & bone regardless of the injury suffered.

"I know it's a lot to absorb all at once, Professor Goodwitch, But you must know." The young man's voice carried compassion, While Ophelia stared at her with icy fury.

I always thought that Ophelia could have more secrets, But nothing like this... Impactful.

"Forgive me for not sharing this information with you, Glynda, but Salem's immortality has caused..." The Professor took a deep breath, Her gaze filled with sorrow. "I've been betrayed countless times because of it."

I always thought that Ophelia could have more secrets, but nothing this... impactful.

"Forgive me for not sharing this information with you, Glynda, but Salem's immortality has caused..." The Professor took a deep breath, Her gaze filled with sorrow. "I've been betrayed countless times because of it."

'It made sense, His enemy was an immortal witch with an army of monsters at her disposal, it's evident that many would despair upon receiving this news and betraying her greatest enemy could earn them favor with the Grimm queen.' Glynda was thinking to herself.

"But Glynda is different." I looked in the direction of Sterling, Now identified. "I know Qrow is your best field agent & one of the best fighters in all Remnant." He pointed in my direction. "But when it comes to Integrity, Loyalty, Commitment, Intelligence, And above all Competence, there is no one better on this damn planet than Glynda Goodwitch."

I blushed & felt a little embarrassed by the compliments the boy gave me.

"I appreciate the kind words, Mr. Schnee, but still, what gives you the right to reveal Professor Ophelia's secrets?" I blushed & felt a little embarrassed by the compliments the boy gave me.

"I appreciate the kind words, Mr. Arc, but still, what gives you the right to reveal Headmistress Ophelia's secrets?"

"Look at this, Ozpela! I just revealed your dirty laundry to her, and her first reaction is to defend you?" The boy laughed out loud as if he had heard the most absurd thing in the world. "You really don't deserve her."

The redness in my face became more apparent, And I decided to stay silent to try to center myself again.

"While I agree with you, Sir, regarding Miss Goodwitch's qualities, she is right." The Headmistress of Beacon approached the young man, Taking firm steps, looking down at Jaune.

However, The beautiful woman stepped protectively in front of Sterling Ozpela asked with a heavy voice, "For what reason did you reveal my greatest secrets? How did you come to possess that knowledge? And how can we trust someone who appears out of nowhere, Sowing intrigue & discord within my inner circle?"

It's rare to see the Headmistress get straight to the point. She usually prefers to tell a story and draw a parallel between the situation & a tale or one of Her experiences, But this boy stripped him of his deepest secrets and put him on the defensive.

The air in the office was thick with tension, A blend of uncertainty & intrigue swirling around the group as they faced the enigmatic young man. Sterling, His wild hair framing a determined face, stood unflinching before Ophelia and Glynda, the weight of the moment settling heavily on his shoulders.

He understood that the revelation of Salem's immortality was not to be taken lightly, And the implications it held for their fight against the Grimm were staggering.

"Trust is earned, Headmistress." Sterling replied, His voice steady despite the scrutiny he faced. "I didn't come here to sow discord but to offer assistance. The secrets I possess are not mine to keep; They belong to those who fight against the darkness."

Ophelia's gaze narrowed, Her bronze-brown eyes studying him intently. "Then tell me, Sterling, how did you come by this information? Who are you really?" Her tone was calm but edged with authority, Demanding the truth.

Sterling exchanged a glance with Glynda, Who looked equally curious yet cautious. "I have my sources, But… I would like for you to guess…" Sterling says with a smile. "Hint, I am similar to Ophelia," Sterling says hinting at Ophelia's past reincarnations as he points at Ophelia before putting his hand down.

Ophelia's expression shifted, A flicker of recognition sparking in her bronze-brown eyes. She leaned forward slightly, intrigued yet cautious. "Similar to me? Are you suggesting that you, too, have lived multiple lives? That you possess knowledge from beyond this current incarnation?"

Sterling nodded slowly, Feeling the weight of the moment pressing down on him. "Yes, I have memories of a past life. My past life showed me this world… Tho, With differences…" Sterling says as Glynda listens to him.

"I'll just list a few… One; Ophelia is female & not male named Ozpin. Two; I noted there are more females than males in schools, Only for me to find out that males have weaker auras but not me. Three; Harems are somewhat common, Tho I find that out in a way… But other than that a lot are the same as what I know." Sterling explained.

"And why? Would we believe you, Mr. Schnee?" I asked.

"Because I'm on your side, Because I have a semblance that can turn the tide of the war against your ex, and because if you accept this, I'll tell you who the three people were that attacked Amber, The Fall Maiden."

A deathly silence filled the room, Tension hung in the air & could be cut with a knife.

"You know who attacked her?" The Professor asked incredulously.

Sterling smiled & raised three fingers.

"There were three people, I know their names, appearance, and their semblances." Pausing dramatically, Sterling clenched his fist and looked deep into Ophelia's eyes. "And most importantly, I know when and how they will come to Beacon to take the rest of the Fall Maiden's power."

"You're a deserter of Salem?" I blurted out without thinking. "Is that why you know so much?" He shook his head.

"No, Not one bit. Just a friend you can say Or a very powerful ally, If that's what you want? Sterling explains to I & Ophelia.

"As for how I know this information, I'll tell you on another occasion. Verify if my information about your enemies is correct, Then I'll tell you my story."

Without thinking, Ophelia reached out his hand, And Sterling shook it.

"Get a pen, Glynda, Beacon has just gained another candidate." The Professor was apprehensive, But at least he was still hopeful.

Remnant; Time: 2017, August 12th, 4:19 P.M. Location: Diana's Professor Room.

——

Pov: Sterling Schnee

Being inside Diana's Professor Room was an isolated room, Sterling could finally get a good snooze so he can sleep inside the Dining Room the for the initiation tomorrow.

This Room, Diana's Scroll, And 10,000 Lien were a small gesture of gratitude from Ophelia to Diana for helping deal with so many "Nuisances".

We spent Two hours ironing out the details to handle Cinder's team, Leonardo Lionheart's betrayal, And the hacking of the CCT.

Glynda wanted to tackle the problems head-on as quickly as possible with three teams of experienced Hunters. But with Ophelia's help, We managed to convince her that it's better to proceed with caution.

Sterling started to toss and turn on Diana's bed, Trying to find a comfortable position. Diana was taking a shower after Diana and Sterling had sex for about an hour & ten minutes.

The mattress is great, But the pillow was even better, like a soft cloud. "I could sleep like this..."

Sterling soon hears the shower end and soon after Diana comes out of the restroom bare showing Diana's beautiful nude form. Diana walked to her bed & sat next to Sterling. "You look just as beautiful as a goddess, Diana."

Diana blushes at Sterling's compliment, Soon Sterling questions Diana. "Diana… Are you sure, That you are ok being in a harem? I know it's different from what you would want." Sterling speaks out to Diana.

Diana, Her onyx hair still damp from the shower, looked at Sterling with a mixture of surprise & affection. The warm light from the room cast gentle shadows across her skin, Accentuating her graceful features. As she sat beside him, She could feel the weight of his question, the sincerity behind it.

"Sterling~" She began, Her voice soft yet steady, "I appreciate your concern. This is all new for me, And honestly, it's a lot to process. But I trust you & your intentions." She paused, Considering her words carefully. "I know that this isn't the typical arrangement, and I've always envisioned a different kind of life. Yet, I also see the strength in what we're building together."

Sterling shifted slightly, Propping himself up on one elbow to better meet her gaze. "It's important to me that you feel comfortable & respected in whatever this becomes. I don't want you to feel pressured Or obligated."

Diana offered him a gentle smile, Her aura blue eyes sparkling with warmth. "You don't have to worry about that. I know you care deeply for me, And your honesty is what I value most. I want to be here for you, too, and for our friends. If this is what it takes to protect the people we care about, Then I'll find a way to embrace it."

Sterling felt a surge of gratitude at her words, And he couldn't help but smile back. "You truly are incredible, Diana. Your strength and kindness inspire me every day." He reached out, Brushing a few damp strands of hair behind her ear, his touch lingering as he admired her beauty.

Diana blushed at the intimacy of the moment, Feeling her heart race as she leaned into his touch. "Thank you, Sterling. I want to support you and our friends in any way I can. I just want us to be a team."

18 Plus Warning Lemon Scene starts here!

Sterling begins to slowly caress Diana's inner thighs, working his way upwards towards her glistening folds. "Mmmm... You're so soft & smooth down here, My goddess~ Diana~" Sterling teases admiringly, His fingers lightly teasing along her sensitive skin.

As he reaches the apex of her thighs, Sterling gently parts her legs further apart, exposing her most intimate area to his hungry gaze. "And you're already so wet for me, Baby. Does this turn you on, Knowing how much I adore your perfect body~?" His thumb finds her clit & starts to circle the sensitive nub slowly.

Pleasure sparks through Diana's core as Sterling's skilled fingers work their magic. Soft gasps and whimpers escape her parted lips.

Sterling slides two fingers deep into Diana's slick heat, Pumping them slowly as his thumb continues its sensual assault on her clit. "Ohhh Sterling..." She moans breathily, Her hips rocking subtly against his hand, seeking more of that delicious friction.

He curls his fingers inside her, Stroking along her velvety walls while his palm grinds against her sensitive pearl. "That's it, Let yourself feel good for me, gorgeous," Sterling encourages huskily, Drinking in the erotic sight of his lover coming undone beneath his touch. "Your tight little pussy feels amazing wrapped around my fingers like this."

Diana's back arches off the bed, Her ample breasts bouncing with each thrust of Sterling's hand.

Sterling increases the pace of his fingers, Plunging them deeper & faster into Diana's sopping wet cunt as he rubs firm circles on her throbbing clit. "Fuck, You're dripping so much for me already," He groans, Feeling her slick arousal coating his digits. "Such an eager little minx, aren't you?"

He scissors his fingers inside her, Stretching her open before curling them to hit that special spot within. "This is where you need it most, isn't it baby? Right here..." Sterling massages her G-spot relentlessly as he leans down to flick his tongue over one pert nipple.

Diana cries out in ecstasy, Her head thrashing on the pillow as intense pleasure radiates through her body. "AHHH YES! Oh god Sterling, Right there!" She wails, Her inner muscles clenching tightly around his probing fingers.

The stimulation to her clit & G-spot combined with the sensation of his mouth on her breast sends Diana hurtling towards a powerful climax. "Don't stop, Please don't stop! I'm gonna... I'm gonna cum!" Her thighs tremble and quake, Squeezing around Sterling's wrist as her orgasm builds rapidly.

Sterling doubles his efforts, Pistoning his fingers hard & fast while suckling firmly on her nipple. "That's it, Cum for me Diana! Soak my hand with your sweet juices. Let go & give in to the pleasure!"

As Sterling's skillful fingers bring Diana to the peak of ecstasy, Her voluptuous body tenses and quivers. Suddenly, A gush of her sweet nectar spurts forth, drenching Sterling's hand & forearm in her essence as she experiences a mind-blowing squirting orgasm.

"AHHHHN!! STERLING!!" Diana practically screams in rapture, Her eyes rolling back and toes curling from the intensity of her release. Her velvety walls pulse and flutter around his digits, Milking them for all they're worth as wave after wave of pure bliss crashes over her.

Sterling groans in masculine satisfaction, Relishing the feeling of Diana's hot fluids coating his skin & the erotic sight of her coming completely undone. "Fuck, That's my good girl~"

Still basking in the afterglow of her intense orgasm, Diana looks up at Sterling with hooded, lust-filled eyes. She reaches out to stroke his cheek tenderly.* "Make love to me, Sterling," She breathes, Her voice husky with desire. "I need to feel you inside me, Filling me up completely."

Sterling's pupils dilate with barely restrained hunger at her words. In one fluid motion, He positions himself between her spread thighs, the thick head of his cock nudging insistently at her entrance. "With pleasure, My goddess~" He rumbles, His large hands gripping her hips possessively.

With a single, Powerful thrust, Sterling sheathes himself fully inside Diana's welcoming heat.

"OOOHH FUCK YESSS!" Diana moans wantonly as Sterling hilts himself deep inside her, Stretching and filling her so perfectly. Her slick walls flutter & clench around his thick shaft, Drawing him even deeper.

Sterling groans in bliss at the exquisite feeling of Diana's tight, Wet heat enveloping him. "God, You feel incredible," He pants, Giving her a moment to adjust before starting to move. "So fucking tight & wet for me."

He sets a deep, Sensual rhythm, Pulling nearly all the way out before slamming back in to the hilt. The obscene sound of skin slapping against skin fills the room, Mingling with their passionate moans & cries of pleasure.

Sterling grips Diana's hips firmly, His strong hands leaving slight indentations on her soft skin as he picks up the pace of his thrusts. His thick, 8-inch cock plunges in and out of her tight, Dripping pussy with increasing fervor, stretching her deliciously with each powerful stroke.

"UNGH FUCK! You're so goddamn tight, Diana!" Sterling grunts, Sweat beading on his brow from the effort of holding back his impending release. "Your perfect little cunt is gripping me like a vice!"

*Diana's head thrashes on the pillow, Her long onyx hair splayed out in a dark halo. Lewd, High-pitched moans spill from her kiss-swollen lips with each forceful thrust.* "AAHHH YES! Harder Sterling, Please!"

Emboldened by Diana's desperate pleas, Sterling redoubles his efforts, Pounding into her sopping wet heat with wild abandon. The obscene slap of flesh on flesh echoes through the room as he rails her harder & faster, His heavy balls smacking against her ass with each brutal thrust.

"Take it, You insatiable little minx!" Sterling snarls, His green eyes blazing with primal lust as he looms over her trembling form. "This is what you needed, Isn't it? To be filled and used like the cock-hungry slut you are!"

Diana can only moan brokenly in response, Her mind hazing over with overwhelming pleasure. Her nails rake down Sterling's flexing back as she clings to him, Meeting his frenzied thrusts with equal desperation. "YES! YES!"

With a final, Animalistic roar, Sterling hilts himself to the root inside Diana's spasming cunt. His massive cock pulses & twitches as it erupts, Painting her insides white with thick ropes of his potent seed. Jet after jet of hot, Virile cum floods her waiting womb, marking her as his deep within.

"FUCK! Take my load, You fertile little goddess!" Sterling bellows, Grinding his pelvis against hers to ensure every last drop takes root. "Gonna breed this tight pussy so full of my babies!"

Diana wails in ecstasy as she feels Sterling's scorching release flooding her most intimate depths. Her cunt milks him for all he's worth, Rippling & sucking greedily at his spurting cock. "YESSSS! Fill me up Sterling!"

Sterling's movements become increasingly erratic as he chases his second explosive release, His heavy balls drawing up tight. With a bestial roar, He buries himself to the hilt one final time, his engorged cock pulsing as it unleashes another massive flood of hot, virile cum directly into Diana's unprotected womb.

"TAKE IT ALL, YOU FERTILE GODDESS~!" Sterling bellows, His hips jerking sporadically as he pumps what feels like gallons of potent seed deep into her core. Her tummy begins to swell slightly from the sheer volume, Stuffed to capacity with his thick cream.

Diana throws her head back with a silent scream of ecstasy, Her eyes rolling back in her head from the mind-breaking intensity of being bred so thoroughly.

Finally spent, Sterling collapses on top of Diana, both of their chests heaving as they struggle to catch their breath. He peppers her face and neck with soft kisses, Gentler now in the aftermath of their intense coupling.

"Mmm, That was incredible, my goddess," Sterling murmurs, Nuzzling into the crook of her neck affectionately. "You took me so well, like you were made for my cock."

He rolls to the side, Pulling Diana flush against his sweat-slicked chest. One large hand comes to rest possessively on the slight swell of her lower belly, Still distended from the massive amount of cum pumped inside her. "Rest now, Baby."

———

Lemon Scene ends here!

——

Sterling then softly expands his aura within Diana's womb & stops every single sperm, Ensuring they cannot ever fertilize Diana.

Diana melts into Sterling's embrace, A satisfied smile playing on her kiss-bruised lips. She drapes one slender thigh over his hip, Keeping him close as she savors the pleasant ache between her legs – A reminder of the thorough breeding she just received.

"I love you so much, Sterling," She whispers, Tracing idle patterns on his broad chest with her fingertips. "Making love with you always feels so perfect, Like our bodies were created just for each other."

She tilts her chin up to capture his lips in a slow, sensual kiss, pouring all her adoration & contentment into the gentle press of mouths. "Thank you for always taking such good care of me, In every way possible."

Sterling smiled at Diana, And softly cupped Diana's cheek & kissed her cheek. "No worries, My Goddess~" Sterling says, As Sterling looks at the time, and sees…

———

Time: 5:11 P.M.

——

Sterling gently disentangled himself from Diana's embrace, Feeling a sense of urgency creep back into his mind. "We should get cleaned up and I have to head to the dining hall." He said softly, Pressing a tender kiss to her forehead. "The others will be expecting me, And I need to be well-rested for the initiation tomorrow."

Diana nodded, Her expression turning more serious. "You're right. We can't afford to be distracted right now." She rose from the bed, Her movements graceful despite the lingering effects of their passionate encounter.

Together, They quickly tidied themselves up, making sure there were no telltale signs of their intimate activities. As they finished, Sterling placed a hand on Diana's shoulder, his eyes filled with affection.

"Thank you, Diana. For being here with me, For trusting me, And for standing by my side." His voice was sincere, The weight of their situation evident in his tone.

Diana covered his hand with her own, Offering him a reassuring smile. "I wouldn't be anywhere else, Sterling. We're in this together, No matter what." She gave his hand a gentle squeeze before leading the way out of the room.

Sterling made his way toward the dining hall, Where the other initiates were gathered. As he approached, Sterling could feel the energy in the air – A mix of anticipation, nervousness, and excitement. He took a deep breath, steeling himself for the challenges that lay ahead.

Entering the hall, Sterling spotted Ruby and Yang talking to Weiss & Pyrrha engaged in a lively discussion. They waved him over, Their expressions bright & welcoming.

"There you are!" Ruby exclaimed, Her silver eyes sparkling. "We were just talking about what kind of challenges we might face tomorrow. I can't wait to put our training to the test!"

Weiss nodded, Her brow furrowed in concentration. "We'll need to be on our guard. Glynda & Ophelia have made it clear that this initiation will be unlike anything we've experienced before."

As Sterling joined the group, He couldn't help but notice a lone figure sitting slightly apart from the others, her attention focused on a book. It was a girl with raven-black hair and a bow atop her head, Her expression neutral as she turned the pages.

"Who's that?" Sterling asked, Nodding towards the mysterious girl.

Ruby followed his gaze, Her expression brightening. "Oh, That's Blake! She's been keeping to herself, But I think she's really nice. Maybe you should go say hi?"

Sterling considered the suggestion, intrigued by the quiet girl. Excusing himself from the group, he made his way over to where Blake was seated, taking a seat beside her.

"Hi, I'm Sterling," He greeted, Offering her a friendly smile. "I don't think we've met before."

Blake looked up from her book, Her amber eyes regarding him with a hint of caution. "Blake." She replied simply, Her voice soft and measured.

"It's nice to meet you, Blake." Sterling continued, Undeterred by her reserved demeanor. "I noticed you were sitting over here by yourself. Is everything okay?"

Blake hesitated for a moment, Her gaze flickering back to her book. "I'm fine, Just… Prefer to keep to myself, That's all."

Sterling nodded, Understanding. "I get that. But you know, We're all in this together. If you ever want to join the group, We'd be happy to have you."

Blake considered his words, A flicker of something unreadable passing across her features. "Thanks, I'll… keep that in mind."

Sensing that he wasn't going to get much more out of her at the moment, Sterling offered her one last smile before rejoining the others. As he did, He couldn't help but wonder about the mysterious girl & what had brought her to Beacon.

Ruby leaned in closer, Her eyes sparkling with excitement. "So, What did Blake say? Did you manage to get her to join us?"

Sterling shrugged, A thoughtful expression crossing his features. "She seems reserved, But I think she appreciates the offer. It's clear she prefers her own company for now."

Yang chuckled, Nudging Ruby playfully. "Looks like you'll have to work a little harder, Ruby! You're usually the one who can lighten up anyone!"

Ruby pouted playfully. "Hey! I can't help it if she's a mystery! I'll get her to open up eventually. Everyone deserves to be part of our team!"

Weiss interjected, Her voice laced with a hint of seriousness. "It's important we don't push her too hard. Everyone has their own pace. We should focus on ourselves & the initiation first."

"Exactly," Pyrrha added, Nodding in agreement. "Tomorrow will be a significant test for all of us. We need to be united and strong, Regardless of how Blake chooses to participate."

Sterling felt a sense of pride swell within him. His friends were committed to supporting each other, Even as they navigated the complexities of their new lives at Beacon. "We'll all face this together." He affirmed, "And I have no doubt that we'll come out stronger on the other side."

After some time of talking, Sterling & the girls went to sleep. Hoping for luck for the next day, Hoping they'll pass the initiation.

Sterling had found a spot in the corner, He laid down on his makeshift bed, allowing himself to relax. As he closed his eyes, He thought of Diana, the warmth of her presence still lingering with him.

No matter what happened tomorrow, He reminded himself that they were all in this together. With that comforting thought in mind, Sterling drifted off into a peaceful sleep, ready to face the dawn of a new day.
