Next Gen Hero

Too Easy

Noir POV

I peacefully perch on a water tower enjoying the silence of Vale.

Noir: "Man oh man, nothing quite like a still city."

I exhale creating fog.

Tria: "You sure you should be out? I mean it's close to twenty degrees."

Noir: "It's fine. I'm prepared."

I bring my arms close enjoying the warmth of my jacket and scarf.

Tria: "Just try not to die from hypothermia."

Noir: "I'll try not to."

As I hang up an alarm goes off. Looking I see firetrucks racing down the road. 

Noir: "A fire, nice."

I front flip onto the roof of the firetruck.

Noir: "Where's the fire?"

Driver: "305 West Joy Road."

Noir: "But that's the Bio Life building."

Driver: "I know. That place just can't catch a break."

I ride to the Bio Life building. Upon arriving I see it fully consumed by fire. I then hop off the firetruck and walk to the police chief.

Noir: "What're we dealing with?"

PC: "Arson. Some punk tossed a molotov and set the place ablaze."

Noir: "Do you know where he is?"

PC: "No. But we've got reports of activity on the top floor."

Noir: "I got it."

I leap onto the side of a building. With a second leap I crash through a window entering the burning building. 

Voice: "I was wondering when you'd show up."

I look to see a man in a mechanical wheelchair with four legs.

Noir: "Who are you?"

Ian: "You may call me Ian."

Noir: "Were you the one responsible for this?"

Ian: "Yes."

Noir: "Then face punishment."

I rush in with a right hook. But he holds his hands up.

Ian: "I surrender."

I stop my fist an inch from his face.

Noir: "Huh?"

Ian: "I give up. You can take me in now."

I tilt my head as water is blasted through the window. I escort Ian out of Bio Life where he's quickly taken away.

Noir: "Well that was super weird."

I make my way back home. Entering the window I see mom and dad watching the news.

Y/N: "There she is. That was the fastest you've ever completed a job."

I expose my face.

Noir: "Yeah, which was kinda strange."

Blake: "How so?"

Noir: "The guy just gave up."

They tilt their head when a scroll rings.

Y/N: "Hello? Uncle Oz. What? At home why? The police station? In about ten minutes. Alright bye."

He gets up getting dressed.

Blake: "Where're you going?"

He straightens his coat.

Y/N: "Ozpin says he needs me at the police station. Said someone wants to see me."

Noir: "Be safe dad."

He kisses me and mom.

Y/N: "I will."

Y/N POV

I make my way to the police station. Getting there I see uncle Ozpin waiting outside a room.

Ozpin: "You made it."

Y/N: "Yeah. So what's this about?"

He gets serious.

Ozpin: "I want you to promise to keep your cool."

I become nervous.

Y/N: "Why?"

Ozpin: "Behind this door is something that'll test you. So I want you to promise to not lose your senses."

Y/N: "I promise."

He steps to the side. I open the door to the interrogation room. The second I look eyes my body locks up.

Ian: "Hello Y/N."

Wrath and fury fill me as my knuckles turn white. 

Y/N: "Ian."

Ian: "Aww, you remember me."

I close the door sitting down at the other end of the table.

Y/N: "Alright spill it, whaddaya want?"

Ian: "I just want us to catch up. After all, it's been nearly thirty years since we last saw each other."

I cross my arms.

Y/N: "Why'd you set fire to the Bio Life building?"

Ian: "It was merely to send a message. I wanted to speak with you."

Y/N: "About?"
