The Spider Of Remnant(Hiatus)

Fall

~Ozpin's Office~

The headmaster's office of Professor Ozpin, seated in front of Pyrrha, smiles at his red haired student who tells him of her journey in the Vytal Tournament.

"Well, it comes as no surprise that they've chosen you to move on to the final round of the tournament. Your performance was exemplary." Ozpin said.

"Thank you, Professor Ozpin, but I would have never made it this far without my teammates." Pyrrha replied humbly.

"Personally, I think it's the other way around." Qrow remarked.

"I'm sorry, but I don't believe we've been introduced." Pyrrha said, trying to be polite to the Branwen.

"Name's Qrow." The man snapped.

"Oh lighten up you bird." SpiderMan retorted, jumping down next to the Huntsmen who only scoffed.

"Qrow is a trusted colleague of mine. As well as Spider-Man who I know you're accustomed to." Ozpin replied.

"Professor, if you don't mind me asking, why have you called me here?" Pyrrha asked hesitantly.

"Please, take a seat. What is your favorite fairy tale?" Ozpin said.

"I'm... sorry?" Pyrrha replied.

"Fairy tales, stories from your childhood. Surely you must remember some of them." Ozpin explained.

"Well, there's The Tale of The Two Brothers, The Shallow Sea, The Girl in the Tower..." Pyrrha started, nostalgia setting in.

"What about The Story of the Seasons?" Ozpin asked.

"Well, of course! A callous old man, who refuses to leave his home, is visited by four traveling sisters. The first understands his reclusive nature and urges him to use his time in solitude to reflect and meditate. The second brings him fruits and flowers, tending to his crops and revitalizing his garden. The third warms the man's heart, convincing him to step outside and embrace the world around him. And the fourth and final sister begs him to look at all that he has, and be thankful. In return for their kindness, the man grants the maidens incredible powers, so that they may continue to help others all over the world. They graciously accept, and promise to share their gifts with the people of Remnant 'til the end of days. Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall; the four maidens. My mother loves that story." Pyrrha replied.

"Would you believe me if I told you that one's been around since I was a boy?" Ozpin said.

"You're not that old, Professor." Pyrrha chuckles.

"Well, would you believe me if I told you it was true?" Ozpin asked, going from playful to deadly serious.

"Is he serious?" Spidey asked Qrow.

"Just watch." Qrow snapped.

"I beg your pardon?" Pyrrha asked again.

"What if I told you that there were four maidens existing in this world, that could wield such tremendous power, without Dust?" Ozpin replied.

"Wouldn't be the first time I heard a fairy tale being real." Spidey quipped.

"You mean... like a Semblance?" Pyrrha replied, trying to make sense of her headmaster's logic.

"Like magic." Ozpin said, revealing his secret.

"I..."

"Yeah. First time hearing this, it's pretty crazy." Qrow said.

"You're serious?" Pyrrha asked.

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Ozpin said straight faced.
