Timeskip: The next day.

"Amilanthior Nightshade, Dawn Banner, Zhu-li Castellan, Kinaver Embara. You have chosen the White and Black King and Queen pieces. And henceforth will be known as Team Adzuki," Ozpin announced via speakers.

Dawn stood at rapt attention on the stage, hands crossed formally behind her back, army style. Stoic, but unable to hide a smile of pride when the applause came. Unlike her, Zhu-li was unaccustomed to such formal occasions, and kept smoothing her skirt nervously while trying to keep a straight face.

"...led by," the announcement continued.

Dawn secretly hoped it would be her. Being the leader would prove her cause to the world, that women could be just as powerful leaders and fighters as men.

Zhu-li was less ambitious, and more accepting with whatever the outcome would be. She knew hadn't done anything noteworthy of being a leader, and was weaker than anyone else on the team. She didn't deserve it in her opinion, but promised to try her best if chosen.

"Kinaver Embara." they both turned to him.

"Oh fuck!" Dawn exclaimed.

"Congratulations." Zhu-li smiled knowingly.
