Mankind are eternal lambs, always harming naught but themselves.

A raven haired figure dashes sideways, dodging the swipes from the blackened wolfish beasts whilst landing hits from the short dagger on their torso. Successfully managing to tire them out. His coat billowing from each step he takes, every motion he makes. Gleaming eyes trained on his foe.

They believe they are supreme, everlasting in an uncaring, ever-changing universe. It's only their folly which leads them to such.....pitiful thoughts.

The beowulves eyed him hungrily, circling around him, marking him their prey. The unmistakable signs of a fatigued Beowulf.
In a sudden, exhilarating moment the man rushed towards the nearest beowulf by the balls of his feet, taking its head off in a clean, horizontal sweep. Watching the falling corpse formulate a blackish smoke.

Their ignorance never ceases to amaze, when it is clear that greater legends have lived to give life to shows of terrific power, these "semblances" being one of the fruitful gifts bestowed by these beings now lost to the gale of time. How petty....to assume other's gift as one's own creation.

Through the smoke, the dark figure burst through and thrust the blade into the heart of the other Beowulf. As the creature fell, the man retrieved his blade whilst rolling over the body of the dying beast and threw it square on the third one's forehead. The blade embedded itself into the broken mask meant to be its head.

Many of these sacred beings have been hunted down by these mortals. The Witches of Wise, the Elven, the Vulkods, Mermen, these were the few extinct ones hunted by races which have dwindled through time themselves. Namely those of silver and ruby eyes.

As the man walked forward to retrieve his blade, another Beowulf made to claw at his back. Fatal mistake, as the blade left the decaying head of the Grimm only to stop when it was done running through the attacking hand of the Beowulf. As the blackish stick-like substance landed on the ground, so did the overgrown wolf after taking a bullet to its head.

Many survived by their own means, leaving to tell a somber tale. However, a bigger war approaches. A purge led by a single being who will eradicate the reigning darkness.....through chaos.

A Beowulf pounced at the man, who rolled away at the nick of time. What he didn't expect was the other Grimm to try his claw on him as well. A clash took place between the blades, no clear winner yet. However, as the other creature tried to launch itself onto the figure, he used all his might to cut the claw off of the Beowulf and dodge sideways from the pounce. Landing roughly on his legs, he raised his head to see that his foe was approaching.....fast!
Taking his gun out again, he swung it sideways; it connected with the wolf's jaw with a loud crack, before sending it further away. He shot the Beowulf one, twice, thrice. The last Grimm wanted to howl for reinforcements, but fell over once it had a hole the size of a ball onto its throat.
But more surrounded the figure, Beowulves and Boarbatusks alike, and he was sure Creepers were there too.

But he wouldn't relent, or give up.
He was having a better day than he had since a very long time.

But that's just a mere prophesy...

Back at Beacon Academy

A normal day back at the best Academy the four kingdoms had to offer. A group of four girls were chatting away on their tables, each enjoying their breakfast.
Pyrrha: Wonder how long till Team RWBY arrives.
Nora: They are probably screwing SSSN at the moment.
Velvet: Even Ruby?
Coco: Look Vel, Oscar might be a nice guy and all, but Ruby needs to enjoy her rights as a woman too. Oscar doesn't want to sleep with her, but Sage does.
Velvet: *sighs* I think I am gonna go to the dorm for a bit.
Pyrrha: Are you alright, Velvet?
Velvet: A bit queasy, but fine.
Nora: *smirks* Ya sure ya aren't pregnant with Yatsu's baby?
Velvet: No Nora. I just......need to be alone for a bit.
Nora: Mmhmm. Kay bye.
Pyrrha: Take care.
Coco: Later Vel.
