(Killer Croc's pov)

I sat in a cell with my hands and legs chained to the wall. I glanced around the cell, wasn't much to see really. Only things in this place were me and the chains.

I tugged on the chains for a bit before stoping as the door opened. I looked at the two people who entered the cell. The first one was a man with grey hair, he wore a dark green suit and was sipping coffee from a mug in his left hand while he held a cane in his right.

The second one was a blonde woman wearing a purple cape. She stared at me with a slightly nervous look in her eyes as she tightened her grip on the riding crop in her hand. I noticed this and grinned maniacally showing my sharp teeth.

They both looked at me before the man walked in front of me and began to speak.

"Waylon Jones, also known as Killer Croc to most, I've heard many things about you. Some good and some bad, and I would like you to confirm whether or not these claims are true."

"Is that so? And who might these claims be from?"

"A mutual friend of ours, I'm sure you know who. As well as several white fang members."

He opened up his scroll and then looked at me.

"They said that you are one of the most dangerous faunus in Vale, that you have no qualms about taking lives."

I grinned and shrugged my shoulders.
"All true, I'm not ashamed to admit it."

He nodded and then looked at his scroll.

"And yet there are others who say that you are simply misunderstood, that you aren't the monster that some say you are, some even say you are a hero to the faunus."

He held up his scroll and I saw a security camera feed of two faunus in an alley being beaten by a group of people, suddenly one of the thugs went flying through the air landing against the wall with a crash. I chuckled at this as I remembered what happened.

(Two weeks earlier)

I was walking through Vale in search of my client. I looked at my scroll, looking rather small in my oversized hands, and checked the address one more time before continuing on my way.

As I reached my destination I heard a pained cry coming from a nearby alley. I ignored it and kept walking and heard the same cries, only louder and this time I could hear dull thuds as something hard connected with flesh.

With a sigh I walked closer towards the source of the noise and came across a group of people standing around something, I looked closer and saw two teens lying on the ground crying and whimpering as they were repeatedly kicked and beaten by the others surrounding them.
My eyes glanced to one's head and saw a pair of fox ears poking out of his hood, and I clenched my fists as I realized what was happening.

Even in this world, racism still exists.

I growled and my pupils narrowed into slits as I walked towards the group. One of them noticed me and walked away from the others with a pipe in his hand.

"Get lost you faunus tra-"

Without warning I grabbed him and slammed his head into my knee, I raised him up and threw him into the wall near the others. At this they all stopped and turned towards me and I took off my jacket. They all looked at me with anger and held up their weapons. Their leader stepped forward and pointed a bat at me.

"Another faunus, alright boys teach this freak a lesson."

Hearing that word I grinned and cracked my knuckles as I looked at the nine people brandishing pipes and knives surrounding me.
