Hello..?

Excellent...

I am here to give you a choice in the world...

The matter is... if you're willing to take it...

M a y... w e... m e e t... a g a i n s o m e d a y...

You suddenly wake up after that confusing ass dream. You were just 10, so innocent and fun to be around right? You'd be stupid to think so, you're the most anti-social and terrifying person at school. Ruby and Yang dont find you scary but they to try to pressure you to hang out with them. You find them annoying but there isnt any way to dodge their pressure. Today was different. Everyone was just now unlocking their semblances and you unlocked yours a year ago. You can cast some basic spells and you keep practicing so you're learning more and more about what your ability can do. You woke up and was getting dressed but Tai calls you down. You finish up and meet him downstairs. He was... crying? You look over and see Qrow and Raven over. You only knew this was bad.

"So... what's the bad news?"

Qrow: "Of it's nothing that bad.. but it is really bad. Summer was found pre-mission in critical condition. They're working on her now but there isnt a guaranteed chance she'll make it out."

"I see... Are they still operating?"

Raven: "They stopped recently. Ruby and Yang went to visit her."

"I'll meet you there i suppose."

You rushed but calmly to the Hospital for huntresses and hunters, arriving in a few minutes as you enter her room. You see Ruby crying with Yang rubbing her head. You sigh to get their attention and go over to Summer's head.

"I told you to be careful..." You were honestly not surprised that she got herself hurt

Yang: "What's with you?! She could have DIED!"

"And you promised me a cookie. What's with you and keeping promises?

Yang promptly keeps quiet as you open your bag and open her mouth

Yang: "The hell do you think you're doing?!"

You pour in a red solution into her mouth slowly to not make her choke as her wounds slowly heal.

"There, she'll wake up soon. Give the doctor my thanks for keeping her stable for a bit."

And then you left without another word, passing by the rest of the family and doctors who looked astonished at Summer's sudden recovery. You bring a faint smile to your face but soon wipe it away and return home to work on more of your potions and such. Tai looks into your room along with a curious Yang. They never bothered checking your room because you were very clean. They see alchemy stuff neatly set up on the table, a cauldron hanging above an open fire which doesn't seem to burn the surrounding building, and a rack of different ingredients in your closet that is semi-open. Tools were neatly racked on the wall as you were viciously but neatly writing down notes about something. Tai leaves while Yang curiously enters. You snap your head towards her suddenly.

"Don't. Touch. Anything. That is your warning."

Yang: "Ok chill bro i'm just looking around."

"Last time you said that, you almost got arrested for shoplifting. You're lucky i keep secrets from dad."

Yang: "Fair..."

She leaves after a bit as you put your book aside and leave towards the forest. You train your physical, magical, and mental power by yourself, growing by the day. But you are now fighting some beowulves that got in the way. You defeated one but the other tackled you. He growl and push against the pressure of the pinning claws on your arms. You were slowly lifting the beast back off you with sheer brute force. With astonished and scared eyes it hopes off of you and backs up. You hum and get up, approaching it. You felt something inside you activate as the beowulf howls loudly, it's normal White bone and Black fur being replaced with Red bone armor and White Fur. You rub it softly as it heels for you. You give it a small smile, knowing what you did. You dismissed it and returned home. Once in your room, you see your dad with some hunters and huntresses cleaning up your room.

"What are you doing father?!"

Tai: "I'm sorry but this is all too dangerous for a 10 year old like you. We get that you're smart but i cannot risk losing a son!"

Blinded by emotion, You gathered your notes and ran off into the forest. Tai and some hunters gave chase but eventually lost you. Signs of your missing face were posted but no one could find you now... And now we see your running off into the forest, your emotional discharge attracting a lot of hungry Grimm. He huff and in rage, and also your newly acquired weapon which is a sharpened stick, single handedly defeated waves of Beowulves, nevermores, and deathstalkers with sheer anger and power. Of course you were hurt but the adrenaline and also Enhancement spells were keeping you together. You grunt in pain but also in tiredness as you drink a healing potion. They evaporate into dust as you found a very run-down tower. You walk inside and knew what to do. You learned more, studied, binding your time in the tower, shaping it into your own home. You're now 15 when you discover the rest of your semblances. You exit with your newly found Odachi and Crossbow as you train yourself. Your physical strength and magical power were increasing by the day but ever so slightly, you feel yourself grow more directed, more pointed, more... Mature. By the age of 18 you are a very strong person, standing at 6 feet tall and can bench-press an ursa like it's nothing.  Your grimm pets grow bigger and bigger by the day. Some are even your servants. You named them "Swatchlings" because it fit their outfit and also personality. You were living a nice life, a new life you found 8 years ago. You made a few friends... A jester you found locked in an old abandoned dungeon obsessed with chaos, a very friendly prince in a seemingly abandoned town nearby, and a scammer turned good through the power of friendship... and this string i found. And this is where our tale begins.
