Team SPYR Dorm
Yin: No way. You actually threatened to dismember and maim him?
Reader: Yeah I did.
Yin: That's awesome!
Primavera: I think you're an idiot.
Reader: What's wrong with you?
Primavera: There's nothing wrong!
Yin: Is it that time of month?
Primavera glares at Yin
Reader: Knock it off you two. Hm, Sapphire, you okay? You haven't said much.
Sapphire: Hm? What?
Reader: I asked if you're okay?
Sapphire: Why wouldn't I be?
Reader: I don't know. You've just been really quiet. Are you sure your okay?
Sapphire: I'm fine, (y/n) really. Thanks for asking though.
Reader: I think I speak for all three of us when I say if there's anything wrong just come and tell us, we're your teammates for crying out loud, it's our job to look after each other. It's not just about us anymore.
Primavera and Yin both nod their heads
Yin: Speaking of looking out for each other, I don't think we know anything about each other. We are going to be on the same team for four years. It would be better if we knew each other more.
Reader: I agree with that.
Yin: Well, who wants to start?
Reader: I guess I will. I was born into a family that had almost complete control over the dust industry. The (L/N) Dust Company.
Sapphire: Wait, you're a (L/N)?
Reader: Yes. Were none of you paying attention when Ozpin named me team leader?
Primavera: I was more focused on who would be the leader.
Yin: Yeah, I'm with her.
Reader: Well, let's just continue the story. I am the sole heir to the (L/N) Dust Company. Me and my family have been at war with SDC for centuries and frankly, I just want it to stop. There have been too many deaths and betrayals in both our families for a lifetime. I've seen family members get shot and people that I've gotten close get hurt one way or another, be physically, mentally, or spiritually. I've tried to change it but what can one 15 year old do against an entire company? There's too much violence in life.
Sapphire: Then why do you want to become a hunter?
Reader: There are two reasons. First I'm going to ask if you've seen the statue above the fountain?
Primavera: Of course, who hasn't. I mean it is literally in the middle of the courtyard. Idiot.
Reader: Well, those are my great grandparents.
Yin: WHAT!?
Reader: Yeah. They both fought in the Great War, so I have a reputation to uphold. The other reason I want to become a hunter is so I can protect people who can't protect themselves, like the Faunus. They're discriminated because they're different from everybody else. I believe that they are treated differently because people are afraid, afraid of the unknown. Every emotion comes from fear. Anger, sadness, and loneliness are good examples of this, but without fear, there cannot be any emotions because without fear you cannot become stronger or be determined because without that fear of failing, you will not try and overcome it but that's enough of that, I'm off track. The Faunus deserve to have the same life as every other person on Remnant, to not be judged by their looks but by their actions. They deserve to be able to go out into the street and not be afraid of being attacked. They deserve to be treated like everybody else on Remnant. I want to become a hunter because I know that in time the discrimination against Faunus will end but it cannot end by just watching and letting it happen. There have to be people who are not afraid to stand up for a Faunus and is it not a hunter's job to protect every person on Remnant, no matter the cost, be it from the creatures of Grimm or a criminal? I want to become a hunter so that I can help to decrease all the senseless violence in the world. I know that it will never happen because everybody has a different outlook on the world and there are too many different beliefs in the world but I believe that I can help control this violence that has threatened to send Remnant into an abyss in which nobody can escape from. I may be one person but I will not die knowing that I could have helped the Faunus in their fight. No, I will only die when I know that I have made the world safer for Faunus, where they won't have to be afraid that their children will get bullied or attacked while walking home from school. Where they won't be afraid of their heritage and they wear it proudly and without fear. Where a Faunus can go into any building without fear of being thrown out just because they're different. I will not stop until this world is a better and safer place for everybody. That is why I want to become a hunter.
Reader exhales deeply
Sapphire: Did you really mean all that?
Reader: Every single word.
Sapphire begins to cry and she runs over to you and hugs you.
Sapphire: Thank you so much, but do you really believe that the world can change?
Reader: I do but it won't happen all at once. It will be a gradual process but it begins with people not being afraid to stand up to the people who torment the Faunus, like Cardin. I just will not stand for it.
Primavera: I agree with him. It's not right for the Faunus to be treated any different than the rest of Remnant.
Reader: I got way off track with this.
Yin: Dude, that's alright. I haven't ever seen anybody, human or Faunus, that is as passionate about this as you are.
Reader: That's because I know what it's like to be treated like a worthless animal and not being able to do anything about it.
Primavera: And you know how that feels because?
Reader: I know what it feels like because...
You slowly remove your hat
Reader: I'm a Faunus too.
Yin: You're a Faunus?
Reader: Yeah, I am. My mother was a wolf Faunus and my dad was a normal
human. They met each other at a Faunus rally outside of the SDC Headquarters that my mom was participating in. My dad was there trying to reach an agreement with the head of the SDC over a dust mine. My father was leaving when the rally started. He decided to stay and see what would happen. My father noticed a brown haired, wolf Faunus in the crowd. That was my mother. My father waited until the rally had ended and he approached my mother to ask her if she would have dinner with him. My mother was hesitant at first because she didn't know anything about my father. Eventually, my mother decided to accept my father's offer. My father took my mother to a restaurant in Vale called "La Fleur de Minuit" but when he got there, the host said that they do not allow pets inside the restaurant. My father became angry and told the host that my mother was not a pet, she was a beautiful woman. My mother had never had any human stand up for her so she didn't know what to do. My father decided that he would take her to his house and cook dinner for her. As the night progressed, my mother started to fall for my father. By the nights end, my mother realized that she had fallen for my father. My mother started to want to spend more time with my father. This went on for about 2 years, until my father proposed to my mother. They got married and had me. As I grew up, I quickly realized that Faunus were tested like animals that had no rights. I was constantly bullied and discriminated just because of my ears. I grew to hate humans because of what they did. It was around this time that I heard about the White Fang. They wanted equality for Faunus so I decided to join without my parents knowing. I started to go to rallies and I started to fight back against the people who bullied me. My mother understood why I did this because she was a Faunus but my father was struggling to understand because he was human. I met a cat Faunus and one of the rallies that I went to. She looked to be only about 6 or 7 years old. Me and her got along really well. We would do almost everything together. My parents still had no idea that I had joined the White Fang and I had planned to keep it that way. The White Fang seemed like the perfect place for me to be. That was until the previous leader stepped down and Adam Taurus took over. Before, we would do peaceful protests but we began to become violent. We would steal dust from the SDC and attack cargo trains. It was at this point that me and the cat Faunus realized that we had to get out of the White Fang before it was to late. So the next time we were tasked with stealing dust from a train, I fought my way to the front of the train while the cat Faunus stayed with Adam. Adam was too busy fighting the Atlesian Knights to notice what me and the cat Faunus were planning to do until it was to late to stop us. After that, me and the cat Faunus went our separate ways. I began to develop an intense hatred for anybody who bullied the Faunus so when I saw a man trying to attack a panther Faunus, I attacked him. I broke the man's hand and fractured a few ribs and that sent him to the hospital. I was arrested for assault and was put in jail for about a day before my father bailed me out. My father told me that I couldn't attack people out of nowhere. I told him that he didn't understand what it was like to be bullied everyday just because you were different. I told him that I wanted to become a hunter. My father asked me why I wanted to become a hunter. I responded, " This world cannot survive with all of the senseless violence in it. The only way to stop it, is to take action." My father agreed with me but he said that they could find another way. I had already made up mind about it so I asked him to enroll me at Midnight Academy here in Vale. He agreed to on one condition, that I work to protect everybody, not just Faunus. I agreed to the condition and my father enrolled me at Midnight Academy. My mother supported my decision wholeheartedly. Nothing much really happened at Midnight except the usual stuff. I graduated from Midnight Academy and came here to Beacon. You all know the rest. Any questions?
Yin: Do you know the cat Faunus' name?
Reader: Yes, I do but she asked me not to tell anybody her name until she was ready. Any other questions about my past?
Primavera: Nope.
Sapphire: None that I can thing of.
Reader: Alright, who wants to go next?
