Y/N, a freshly created AI program. Designed to be able to integrate into just about anything. But one day he seemingly dies. Watch as he returns and makes his way across Remnant to stop a plan that could very well end the world.
I pull my jacket tight and look at myself in the mirror. I then nod.
Y/N: "Good enough."
I do a double take. I lean closer looking at my eye. More so my left eye.
Y/N: "When'd my eye turn red?"
I become confused. I could've sworn they were both blue. I shrug, oh well. I look through the bin and pull out a pair of glasses.

I put them on. I look back at the mirror. I then smile seeing they're dark enough to cover my eyes.
Y/N: "Now to go home."
I exit Beacon. I walk through its courtyard when I spot a bullhead.
Y/N: "That'll do."
I enter standing in front of the main console. It's only then I notice a major problem.
Y/N: "I can't fly one of these."
I think when I remember something.
Y/N: "Oh yeah."
I pull a cable from my left wrist. I then plug it into a slot on the console. The bullhead turns on hovering into the air. It then flies to my destination. I withdraw my cable and take a seat. After a while the bullhead lands. I exit looking at the house.
Y/N: *exhale* "Here we go."
I walk up to the door knocking on it. There's several seconds of silence. The door then opens revealing Ruby. I look her over. She has patches on various parts of her face with a bandage wrapped around her forehead.
Ruby: "Can I help you?"
Y/N: "You look good Ruby."
She tilts her head.
Ruby: "Do I know you?"
I work my magic. Crescent Rose flies off the shelf into my hand.
Ruby: "Telekinesis. Not bad."
I smile. I then open a compartment so secret that only her and I know about it. An object falls out. I unfold it displaying a picture of her and I when she first crafted Crescent Rose. This clues her in on who I am. Her eyes widen.
Ruby: "Y/N?"
Y/N: "Hey kid."
She wraps me in tight hug. Her tears then stain my shirt.
Ruby: "I got so worried. I couldn't find you after the tournament. I-I thought..."
I return her hug. I then rub her back.
Y/N: "It's okay. I'm right here."
She tightens her grip. I continue to just hold her. After awhile we break the hug.
Ruby: "So what've you been up to since Beacon fell?"
Y/N: "Mind if I come inside?"
Ruby: "By all means."
We enter the house. Sitting down in the living room I explain everything that happened. By the end I feel the need o cry rising. Ruby sits next to me placing her hand on my back.
Ruby: "I'm sorry about Penny."
Y/N: "I was so helpless Ruby. I could only watch as she was slain."
I clench my fists.
Y/N: "It's not fair. Why did it have to be her? She was innocent. She didn't deserve her fate."
She holds my hand.
Ruby: "I know it may not seem fair. But it's like people say, things happen for a reason. Maybe this happened so something even better can happen."
Y/N: "I can only hope so."
Her scroll dings. She looks at it.
Y/N: "What's that about?"
She looks at me.
Ruby: "Me and the others are about to go on a mission."
Y/N: "What kinda mission?"
Ruby: "One that'll hopefully provide answers."
She smiles holding out her hand.
Ruby: "Whaddaya say? Wanna join us?"
I think, it'd be a good distraction. It might even give me some answers. I smile grabbing her hand.
