Luna's POV

It's now night. After we fought Tyrion, we got Qrow wrapped up and started a fire. Qrow then told Team RNJR about Salam. About Beacon. About the maidens. About everything. Qrow takes a drink out of his flask before looking down at the fire.

"Really. No questions?" Qrow asked looking up at us.

"Of course we have questions. This. Is just... A lot to take in." Jaune says looking away.

"Sure of course." Qrow says understanding.

"So these... maiden's. There powerful fighters. That don't need dust to use magic." Ruby says making sure she understood.

"Yeah." Qrow answers.

"And there are 4 of them?" Nora asked next.

"Yup. Always." Qrow says looking at Nora.

"Witch means whenever one of them dies their powers transfer to someone. A female. That they really care about." Ren says as he look's at Qrow.  

"Whoever was in their thought's last. Important distinction best option is someone we can trust. Regardless their soul's become combined in a way" Qrow says taking another drink of his flask.

"And that's what you were trying to do with Pyrrha. The night the tower fell. You were trying to turn her into one of them." Jaune says pissed off.

"The previous fall maiden Amber had been attacked. She was young. inexperienced. And her assailant who we now know as Cinder. Stoll some of her power. But not all of it. We were afraid that if we didn't do something. The rest would go to her as well." Qrow says telling his side of the story.

"So you forced it on Pyrrha." Jaune says glaring at Qrow.

"No." I say looking down at my hands. Everyone looks at me as I lock eye's with Jaune. "She had a choice. Just like I had a choice to go with her. She choice to become the maiden. No one could stop her even if we tried." I say as I look down. "She knows what she was doing. But she did it anyway." I say as I wipe a tear that fell down my cheek. Jaune looks down and then gets up and walk's towards a tree.

"That guy. Tyrion. Why was he after me and Luna?" Ruby asked. Qrow sighs.

"Well. You definitely placed a target on your back with what you did at Beacon. I told you having silver eye's is a rare trait. And the fact that you were someone who is able to use them has upset very powerful people. Not many people know about the silver eye's. But those that do aren't very happy that those have surfaced. That's why I've been keeping an eye on you. Wanted to make sure you were safe. All of you." Qrow says as he looks over at Jaune.

"Well then why not just travel with us? It seems like that would have been way easier." Ruby asked.

"He way using you as bait." Jaune says looking back.

"Stop it." I say pissed as Jaune look's my way. "Look I don't know what your thinking or what you're going through. But you need to stop being so rude." I tell Jaune as everyone looks at me with wide eyes. "Jaune, I understand what you are going through. Believe me if anyone understands it's me. I watched her die Jaune. I've had people die for me. I've had people I love die or leave me. So, I know how you feel. But I also know that It wasn't Qrow's fault." I say as gestor towards Qrow.

"What is all this?" Jaune asked. "Ruby and Luna are being hunted. The schools are being attacked. For what!? What's the point of all of this. Will you just tell us what's going on!?" Jaune yells. Qrow sighs.

"Would you sit down you stressing me out kid." Qrow says as Jaune sits down on the log crossing his arms as everyone looks at Qrow.

"Not many people are super religious these day's....... This worlds been around for a long time long enough that people have created dozens of god's. But If you believe Ozpin. Two of them are actually real. They were brothers. The oldest sibling the god of light found joy in creating sources of life. Meanwhile the younger brother the god of darkness spent his time creating sources of destruction. As you can imagine, they both had pretty different ideas about how things should go. The older one would spend his days creating water, plants, wildlife. At night the younger brother would wake to see all the things that the elder had made and become disgusted. To counteract these brother creations he brought drought Fire. Famish. All that he could do to rid Remnant of life. Life always returned. So one night the younger brother went and made something. Something that shared his desire to destroy anything and everything." Qrow said looking down into the flames of the fire.
