(Summer Rose Branwen)

As we walked I noticed that Granny was unusually quiet and I thought of asking her why she was so quiet, I opened my mouth to speak but before I could speak Granny started to talk.

She said I know what you're going to ask me dear, she then said I've just been doing some serious thinking about everything and I too wish that things could be different for all of us but with all the death and destruction that I have caused sadly I can't undo it.

I heard the sound of sniffling and so I turned around and I saw that granny was crying black tears and so I walked over to her and I pulled her into my arms and I held her tight, as I held her tightly I asked her the question that has been bothering me for a long while now.

Is it true what you said about Ozpin granny? Granny sighed deeply and then she said it's true dear, part of the story that he has told you is true but there's more to it, granny then continued speaking.

When Ozma had returned to me in a new body, he wasn't the man that he was before he died, he seemed far more distant and cold towards me and the girls and I didn't know why but I was to find out really shortly.

One morning I was getting the girls ready for the day in our bedroom in front of my vanity mirror when a cold hand grabbed the back of my neck and the next thing I knew I woke up with a throbbing headache,

I carefully lifted my head up and I then looked down and I saw blood on the mirror and on the table and the blood was mine.

I  was absolutely terrified since I knew that the girls had and would never hurt me thus leaving Ozma as the person who had hurt me and I was terrified of him, Over the course of a few years he continued to hurt me both physically and mentally.

Then one day I finally decided to fight back against him, he was in kitchen one afternoon making a sandwich when I snuck inside the kitchen and I drew a knife and I then crept up behind him and then I started stabbing him repeatedly though he started to heal himself before he started to fight back.

Before the fight could escalate even further a frying pan was brought down with full force and rendered him unconscious, I turned to see my savior and I saw her standing there with the pan in her hands.

My savior was my eldest daughter Summer and she was shaking violently and she was crying and so I quickly stood up and I went to comfort her, After ten minutes I was able to get Summer calmed down and then I told her to go and gather her sisters while I packed everything of ours that I could and then we were leaving.

After an hour and a half of packing the girls and I walked to the door and then I opened it and we went to stay with my parents at the palace where we would remain safe from Ozma, though it wouldn't last forever though that's a story for another day dear.

When granny had finished her story I was aghast the man that I had looked up to was/is a monster, I mean who beats up his spouse for some sick pleasure.

I felt like I was going to be vomit and I ran to the nearest bathroom and I began to empty the contents of my stomach into the toilet and as I was throwing up I felt a hand on my back, and a monotone voice spoke saying easy there little bird which made me freeze.

No one really called me little bird except for my  wife and so I carefully looked up and I saw Raven standing there with a soft smile on her face, though by looking into her eyes I knew that I owed her an explanation and I was going to give her one.
