It was shortly after the breach invasion as the public had deemed it. It was the middle of the night and the only ones awake at the moment were the school guards, and a few teachers catching up on there work. Professor ozpin was one of those people as he sat at his desk the only sound being heard were the turning of the gears around his office and the scribbling of his pen.

That was when someone knocked on his door. Professor ozpin checked the camera and saw a tall blond boy he knew to be jaune arc. He knew the boy forged his transcripts. But the he showed potential and it wasn't because of his heritage or his family name. It was his character that caught ozpin's attention. Jaune embodied the core aspect of a huntsmen. Although the boy didn't see it in himself. He did wonder what brought jaune to his office at this hour.

" its open." He said as he held his mug.

Jaune walked into the room closing the door as he entered.

" hello sir. I know it's late but I wanted to confess something." Said jaune ozpin raised a eyebrow but he motioned for him to continue. For a living ng silent minute jaune just stood there his head held low and his blond hair shadowing his eyes. Until finally in all but just a whisper ozpin heard jaunes voice.

" I don't belong here...I forged my transcripts." He said

'Ah so that was the reason he came.' Thought ozpin

Ozpin took a long sip of his coffee and sat on the table. He folded his arms and leaned forward.

" I know." He said simply getting a look of surprise from the blond knight. And in his vast vocabulary of words the young knight responded.

"wah?"

" I know your transcripts were forged. mister arc do you truly believe that I wouldn't spot a fake, I run a school training the next generation of hunters. Give me more credit." He said the boy shoulders slumped depressed that the transcripts hadn't even work.

" then why did you let me in? I lied I cheated my way in I don't belong here." Said jaune ozpin motioned to the empty chair in front of his desk.

" mister arc, I let you into my academy because I saw potential. I saw a boy dreaming to become a huntsmen and all he needed was the proper guidance." He said the boy hung his head." and truthfully I think you are the most improved student I have, your grades have risen considerably your competent against the creatures of Grimm and even if you don't realise it you are a good negotiator."

" I don't deserve it though...I don't deserve to have this opportunity, I don't deserve to have these great friends, they deserve better then me." He said.

Professor ozpin eyed the blond boy before him before her pulled out another mug and pores some coffee into it. He handed it to jaune and he accepted it. Taking a sip of his coffee ozpin noticed the dark bags under his eyes. It would seem jaune wasn't sleeping well.

" why don't you tell me what this is really about." He said.

"...I'm afraid." said the young knight.

"of what?" Asked ozpin now it wasn't unusual for people to be afraid but the what was he afraid of? getting killed? Of what his peers would think of him? Was he afraid of getting caught?.no if he afraid of that he wouldn't have said ANYTHING.

"im afraid that I'll get my team killed because of my inexperience." He said as he stared at the mug in his hand." during the breach, I was useless...sure I killed a ursa but...that was one ursa. I'm afraid one day I'm going to need more then just wildly flailing to protect my team." He said." I'd rather go to prison then be responsible for there death."
