Beacon Dorms Team (Ruby)

Blake: I'm sorry I didn't trust you guys it just....

Jaune: of what they have done?

Blake: yes, I was afraid you all would judge me as such.

Jaune then walks towards her and she flinches but he just puts a hand on her head

Jaune: like I said to Schnee we have no right to judge someone else if we haven't judged ourselves first.

If it eases your mind I'll tell you my story after you tell yours if your fine with it?

Blake looks to Ruby and Yang as they nod in approval of her

Blake:*sigh* the white fang wasn't always the violent group that is now.

Jaune: yeah they started out as simple non violent protesters fighting for faunus rights

She nods

Blake: my....my parents founded the organization but slowly over the years the hostilities didn't end as the Atlas Government just as violently stamped out our rallies.

And in response some of the more radical groups within ours fought back.

It was then my parents stepped down as their leaders and a new more violent leader rose to take their place.

I was still a part of the group after the divide and I left my family calling them cowards for abandoning our cause.

I regretted my decisions in life and ran away to change my ways as a Huntress and here I am.

Yang was patting her partners back as Ruby was trying her best to find a way to cheer her up

Blake: I had a hard time hiding this from you guys but if Schnee was in my team.....

Jaune: she would rat you out no questions.

The group was downtrodden by the bluntness

Ruby: I know Weiss is bad but she can't be that bad.

Yang: you'll never know the real person unless you seen them for yourself, Rubes that's life.

Jaune: well as sad as that is and I know this isn't a tragic past contest but my life was way worse than yours Blake so I can't judge you at all.

The team looks to him for an explanation

Jaune: you know I was artificially created right?

The team nods

Jaune: *sigh* but you don't know it's purpose?

The shake their heads no

Jaune: I was made in Atlas....

That got Blake to open her eyes like dinner plates

Jaune: I only say my real name only to the ones I know I can trust. Can I trust you like you trusted me?

Blake nods yes, Yang gave a thumbs up and Ruby shakes her head yes in a rapid speed

Jaune: my name is Shadow, from Project Shadow the Ultimate Lifeform.

Ruby: Shadow? I like it.

Yang: what's the Ultimate Lifeform?

Blake: Project Shadow?

Jaune: I was made to be a weapon...and no just any weapon but a weapon of mass destruction.

They all gasped

Jaune: when I was five General Ironwood took me to be experimented on, testing my strength, speed, durability and senses.

And when I was ten I was sent on my first mission........to quell a Faunus Protest...
