The sun filled its light to a room in the hospital. A room where a black haired woman with red tips rest there. Her silver eyes opened. She groaned loudly when she woke up.

“Summer? Summer! Thank gods, you’re awake.” She looked at her side. Taiyang Xiaolong, her husband.

“Tai?” She asked confusedly.  Why? Why is he here? She left him with the girls when she took the mission. That’s when realization came in.

“Tai!” She grabbed his shoulders and shook him rapidly. ”He attacked me Tai! He attacked me because of my eyes! And-and the-“

“Whoa, whoa, calm down Sum,” Tai said, trying to calming her. “Are you calm?” She nod. “Okay, tell me what happened.”

“Ruby is in danger!”

“What?!”

“That man attacked me because of my eyes! My silver eyes!” Taiyang’s eyes widen. He pulled his scroll from his pocket quickly and called his friend, Qrow, where he was on the way to the hospital with the girls.

“Qrow! Are the girls save?...Okay, I’m calm….Is there anyone with you?...Yes…Because her silver eyes….Stay save Qrow.”

A doctor walked in, checking the monitors. “Well everything is fine, you just need to rest,” The doctor looked at Summer. “You should be glad that he healed you.”

“He?” Summer asked.

“The boy, he saved you from the attacker and healed you.”

“Ah!” She remembered that boy, the boy who stabbed the man’s chest with his bare hand. “Do you know where he is?”

“I can’t find it.” Glynda tapped her scroll again, looking for the information about him.

“Can’t find what Glynda?” Ozpin asked though, he knew the answer.

“His information! There are no information about him and about a boy with red and black eyes. Nothing!” She rubbed her temples. “Still, why you let him go to library alone.”

Ozpin smirked. “It’s just a library, Glynda. There’s nothing to worry about.” 

“But he butchered a man!” She shot back, getting an unwanted attention from the people on the street.

Arriving at the library, they were greeted by a woman at the front desk.
“Good morning, how I can help you today.” She smiled.

“Good morning, I sent a boy here last night for his…school project.” Ozpin said. “He wore a worn tricorne hat, dark trench coa-“

“The bloody boy.” She cut him.

Glynda rolled her eyes. “Yes, him. Do you know where he is?”

“Last time I saw him, he was reading a book with a pile of books next to him on the third floor.”

“Thank you.” Ozpin said. He and Glynda walked towards the stair.

“I can’t believe, he still wore that clothes.” Glynda grunted.

“Now, now, Glynda,” Ozpin said.
“Maybe, he only have the clothes he wore.” Now Glynda feel slightly guilty. But, it didn’t change the fact that the boy butchered a man and acts like everything is fine.

They were expecting a pile of books next to the boy, not surrounded by piles of book. There were books about science, weaponry, engineering, and history. Did he read them all in a
single night?
