Cinder (in head): I want to be strong

A younger Cinder with short hair walked by on the streets. Several stores had been set up around her. Yet Cinder paid no attention to them

Jeweller: a beautiful ring for a beautiful woman

Woman: I'm sorry?

Cinder (in head): I want to be feared

A younger version of Emerald ran past the jeweller. The ring disappeared after she passed the jeweller. But, not in the normal way, it dissipated from his fingertips

Jeweller: what?! Impossible! What did-

Emerald had stolen the ring and was now running away

Jeweller: she went that way!

Cinder (in head): I want to be powerful

Cinder decided to follow the young Emerald, she had caught on to what happened. Yet, she was still puzzled as to how it happened

Woman: someone, call the police!

Jeweller: how did she do that?

The young Emerald turned a corner, but unfortunately came across a dead end. She turned around to see Cinder standing at the entrance

Cinder: how did you do that?

Emerald gave no answer and frantically looked for a way to escape. Emerald then placed her hands on two small rifles on the back of her waist

Cinder: don't. Unless of course, you want them to hear you

The young Emerald took her hands off her rifles, while still death staring the younger Cinder. In the distance, the voices of the jeweller could be heard

Jeweller: where'd she go?

Emerald: what do you want?!

Cinder: I've already told you. And I don't like repeating myself

Cinder took a few steps towards the young Emerald, and she raised her guard in response

Emerald: I didn't do anything, just leave me alone!

Cinder: I know my fair share of liars and thieves. Stealing is an art of patience, coordination, and in a pinch, sleight of hand. But you didn't steal that ring in your pocket...

The young Emerald quickly moved her hand to her side pockets, then look at the younger Cinder in shock

Cinder: you took it right before the jeweller's eyes. And he smiled

Emerald: who are you?

Cinder simply grew an evil grin. She then made the young Emerald follow her to the outskirts of a village

Cinder: you will question everything you know

A Grimm was growling at them from the cover of bushes. When the Grimm revealed itself, Cinder held out her hand and the growling beast stopped. The younger Cinder then ordered it away and it obeyed

Emerald: this is impossible!

Cinder then guided the young Emerald into the village and began talking with a villager

Cinder: I wish to take on an apprentice. Where can I find Marcus Black?

Man: he lives in the mountains with his son
