All I saw was pure darkness around me... The last thing I remembered... was Weiss' face before complete darkness... I was all alone in this void, none of my sisters, teammates or friends were present... Weiss was nowhere to be seen... I sighed, thinking that I was all alone again, just like before...
"Son."
My eyes widen upon hearing that voice... one that I never thought I'd hear after being taken into those mines... A bright blue light shined in front of me, forming into a familiar feminine figure with horns, like myself...

Me: M-Mom...?
I could faintly see her smile at me before...
"Soon, you're abilities will be awakened..."
Me: A-Abilities...? What are you talking about? You mean my Semblance?
Just then, she began to disappear again.
Me: W-Wait! Mom!
. . .
"Long Live the King"
. . .
My eyes shot open just as I felt a bit of a sting in my head... I groaned in pain and looked around the area, only to realize I was in Beacon's infirmary.
Me: What happened...?
???: Thank goodness... You're not dead, boss.
I slightly jolted from the loud voice but calmed down immediately when I saw it was Cassie, who was standing in front of my bed.
Me: Cassie...? How long was I out for...?
Cassie: Ever since last night and all of this morning. Don't worry, I took notes for you.
Me: Hm... Did we stop Roman?
Cassie suddenly got nervous and began rubbing the back of her head.
Cassie: Uh... Yes and No... Yes because his robot is completely scrapped and no because he slipped out of our fingers at the last second.
Me: For some reason I'm not surprised...
Cassie shook her head with a smile before I began to sit up but was prevented by a weight on my right arm. I looked over to see... Weiss? She was asleep on my arm...
Cassie: The moment we got you back, we were all very worried about you, especially Ruby, Yang and Cassandra.
That last name, caught me slightly by surprise
Me: Cassandra...?
Cassie sighed.
Cassie: She couldn't sleep well without clinging on to you all the damn time...
