(Y/N's POV.)

I stare at my new hand, so far I don't know much about it. The signature boney plates covered what was once my nails and knuckles, the black hide was stronger than normal skin and had regenerative abilities when I tried to cut it.

It felt alien... Like it wasn't a part of me, the translucent red eye in the center emits a dim glow. Nova places her hand on my none Grimm one, she told me not to worry about a thing but I was too fixated about it I didn't listen to Nova's words.

The wagon came to a sudden stop, we were at a very unstable passage way to the seaport since the regular route was blocked off by trees.

Hazel: "What now?"

Y/N: "I guess keep moving?"

Hazel: "There's a chance we might fall down, the drop looks deep."

He gestures the black abyss below us and I shiver at the thought of falling down there. Hazel continued on slowly and steadily making sure the wagon doesn't fall.

Due to bad luck the ledge breaks and the wagon would've called if not for the big branch carrying it. The next thing I knew is that I was on the other side, it was empty and desolate.

Nova: "Y/N!"

"Shit..."

I quickly run to them, Hazel and Nova were still in the wagon but it was vertical, my first thought was to grab them but the entire thing looked unstable.

Nova: "Get help!"

"There's no road here!"

Hazel: "Go find someone that can help us!"

"Okay, hang on!"
Nova: "Not funny!"

"Sorry!"

I scan the area and there wasn't a single soul in my sight, I smell the faint scent of smoke and see a pillar of it in the distance.

I run over to the origin of the smoke to find help, as I got closer grunts, growls, and shouts got louder. When I got there a muscular short shirtless man slayed packs and packs of Beowolves with ease, he had a 6 pack, a battle axe, and brown pants.

???: "Meet my axe you filthy Grimm!"

The man chopped all of their heads of with on slash cutting down some trees as well. He laughs in triumph as the Grimm disappear.

I accidentally step on a twig, he looks to my direction with a sense of confidence.

???: "Who is there?"

He said with a stern voice, muscles still tense after the battle. His eyes were filled with the desire to fight more, I step out of the shadows.

"Impressive display, sir."

???: "Why thank you young man! It truly makes me more confident when people admire my skills."

"I need your help, my wagon is stuck on the side of a ravine."

???: "Ah, may I ask where the ravine is at?"

"Follow me."

I ran back to Nova and Hazel with the man not far behind me, he was quick and agile dodging all the obstacles in his way.

???: "What is your name?"

"Y/N...*huff*...L/N."

Port: "Mr. L/N! I am Peter Port but you can call me Pete for short!"
