Evening, Vale City

Vale City, one of the largest cities in the world of Remnant, home to many citizens Humans and Faunus alike, is also the home of the famous prestigious Huntsman Academy Beacon, now at halfway to midnight the usually bustling street is empty except for a few people returning from work, a few shops that open till midnight and one unusually pale boy with short white hair and piercing red eyes.

??? POV

I was walking down the street enjoying a nice stroll in the evening and talking to myself

???: Nothing beats a nice and calm stroll on a nice and calm evening.

Suddenly the sound of a glass breaking reach my ears which got my attention so I look up far to the front and I can see what seems to be a robbery taking place in a dust shop and cursed to myself.

???: ......me and my bloody mouth.

Rushing to the store I check myself to realize that I don't have my gun which leaves me with the option of only using my semblance......well let's hope they survive.

Ruby POV

I was outside of the store after kicking the guy out of the window but by the time I collected myself the others had already surrounded me so I prepare my scythe to fight when suddenly.

???: HEY!

Someone shouted which got my attention and I turned to see a boy, around my age with a pale complexion, short white hair and piercing red eyes wearing a suit which implies that he's an Atlas elite.

???: It's not nice to gang up on a lady like that.

Henchmen 1: Well what do you know brat go back to your house and mind your own businewait a minute that suit looks too fancy for ordinary people you must be a rich kid aren't you?

???: So what if I am?

Henchmen 1: hehe looks like we hit the jackpot boys a rich kid trying to play hero let's beat him up and take all his money.

All Henchmen: Yeah!

I was starting to get worried for the boy when.

Roman: What's the hold-up why haven't you beaten her yet?

The guy who looks like their boss came out of the store.

Henchmen 1: oh! boss, there is just this rich kid wannabe hero here we're just gonna beat him up and take his money.

Roman: well hurry up then.

Henchmen 1: you heard the boss get them!

All Henchmen: YEAH!!!

With a roar, they charge at us, three at me and four at the boy, I was worried for him so I was thinking of ending this quickly to help him but what happens next shock me.

??? POV

Henchmen 1: well kid you got nowhere else to go now any last words?

Heh, these weaklings think they can take me on because they outnumber me, they surely didn't know the term 'quality over quantity ' I smirk at them and said.

???: well prepare to lose your job.

Henchmen 1: tch you won't be so cocky when we're finished with you.

With that, he charges at me with his blade out and swung down while I wait for him to hurt himself.

Henchmen 1: prepare for pain!
