Lost Father

Briefing

Y/N POV

Ozpin presses a button on his desk. This makes the room darken as a series of files are projected.

Ozpin: "Approximately sixteen hours ago there was an all out fight at the docks of Vale. Things got bad but we were able to round up quite a few of the perpetrators. None of them was willing to talk, except one."

He shifts through the files landing on one with a picture of a half asleep boy.

Ozpin: "This individual was willing to talk if we granted his requests."

Y/N: "Something tells me it wasn't that easy."  

Ozpin: "You'd be correct. When we did grant his requests he just gave us open ended answers. This unfortunately left us with more questions than answers. When we figured we couldn't get anything out of him we ran him through the system and found very little."

He swipes showing a heavily redacted file.

Ozpin: "We've had our best hackers work on it but nothing ever happened. Seems whoever this guy is went through a lot of trouble to make sure no one found out who he was. But on the other hand we managed to recover a personal item from him."

Again the files switch.

Ozpin: "He was wearing a dog tag. The information revealed his first name is Bensley. Under that was the word sloth followed by a series of numbers. Do you have any idea what this could mean?"

Y/N: "Yeah. And if it's right then things might get dangerous."

He presses a button making the room return to normal.

Ozpin: "That's about all we know."

Y/N: "It ain't much but it's better than nothing."

Ozpin: "It most certainly is. I trust you keep all of this confidential."

Y/N: "Mum's the word."

Suddenly my stomach rumbles.

Y/N: "I don't suppose you can point me in the direction of the cafeteria?"

Ozpin: "Simply go into the main building and go left."

Y/N: "Gracias."

I stand up to leave when Ozpin stops me.

Ozpin: "I almost forgot to mention. While we work on solving this mystery you'll be posing as a professor."

He tosses me a scroll.

Ozpin: "On that is all the information you'll need. Keep it close."

Y/N: "Will do."

I head out to the cafeteria. Stacking my plate I sit down enjoying myself. It doesn't last long because some kid in armor walks up to me.

kid: "This place is reserved for students and teachers."

Y/N: "I am a teacher numbnuts."

Kid: "You don't look like one."

Y/N: "Look kid I'm trying to eat. Just leave me the hell alone."

Kid: "You're an intruder."

He attempts to strike me. But I quickly aim my gun and fire a beanbag in his face. He's blown out of his seat unconscious.

Y/N: "Dumbass."

I finish my plate and decide to take a walk. As I do I admire all the pretty sights around me.

Y/N: "Sure is nice being on the outside. I'll never take freedom for granted ever again. Though it wasn't my fault it was take away from me. I'll never forget that day, the day Ironwood ruined my life. He took away the happiness I had created simply because I got mad. But I won't worry too much. After all I made sure he paid."

I remember what I did making me laugh. I get so caught up that I fail to recognize my surroundings making me smack face first into something. I rub my forehead groaning.

Y/N: "I gotta stop getting distracted You okay?"

Girl: "Yeah. Just hit my face."

I perk up, something feels off about that voice. I look and have the world go silent as my eyes widen. The person matches my look as their eyes land on me. My heart begins increasing, I can't believe it. The day I dreamed of has finally come true. I steel myself and finally speak.

Y/N: "Hello Neo."
