Beacon Infirmary, Ruby POV

Y/n keeps shaking and crying. He must be having a nightmare about those people. Who are they? He said sister, is that why he's scared of girls? I hear the door open and Ozpin walks in.

"So, care to explain why you continued to fight after breaking your aura?" He asked.

"We had aura again, so I thought that technically me 'n Weiss would be fine." Yang said.

"And how did you regain your aura? It takes a minimum of three hours before someone is even in the red again."

"His aura left drops on the ground which mended ours when touched." Weiss spoke.

"I see. You're probably wondering why your team was chosen to fight Mr. Scarlet."

"Is it because he's scared of girls?" I asked.

The others looked at me in shock. Weiss is probably wondering how I figured it out and she didn't, take that! Well, Ozpin raised an eyebrow but that means he's surprised, right?

"Correct, Miss Rose. The goal was to either have him go all out, or forfeit. Neither happened."

"What?" My team said.

"How was all those lasers and knives holding back?!" Weiss shouted.

Y/n stirred in his sleep again. He's stopped crying, but I don't think the nightmare is over. His green eye is open and glowing now. It's kinda cute, in a spooky way.

"Miss Rose!" 

"Huh?!"

"Do you remember anything odd or out of place that you didn't before?" Ozpin said with... concern?

"No? All I know is that on the way here Y/n was sleep talking about his sisters."

"Sisters?"

Ozpin POV

Y/n Scarlet was "born" four days ago. Maybe the halves that make him came from somewhere else and he holds their memories. Regardless, Miss Rose stared right at his emerald eye and her eyes didn't change like Glynda or Port. Both of them are back to normal but now we have two people who he can't effect. I will have to ask him when he awakens.

"We all heard him Professor. He mentioned the names Remilia and Flandre." Miss Belladonna explains.

"Hm, I will look into them. In the meantime one of you should stay with him until he wakes up. However, do not look into his emerald eye. It can cause... effects."

"What do you mean Professor?" Asked Ruby.

I guess they might as well hear, considering I just asked them to keep an eye on Mr. Scarlet.

"When someone looks at his eye while glowing, they change. Glynda had a false memory of two children, while Professor Port became cowardly. Both of which went back to normal later but don't remember being controlled."

"How do you know that Ruby is fine right now!?" Miss Xiao-Long demanded.

"With Miss Goodwitch, her eyes glowed green. With Port, his eyes turned green." I explained.

With that they seemed satisfied and talked amongst themselves as to who stays first. I walked out and headed for Doctor Oobleck, since the name Flandre has mythical meaning. I may have been alive when the legend of the Scarlet Devils was around but I only know that Flandre was a girl trapped in a basement. Oobleck has record of old myths and legends and may have our answer.

(Minor timeskip) Blake POV

We've agreed to go in rotation of our letters. It's now my turn and he has stopped moving. According to the screen his aura is full already, now he needs to wake up. But won't he be scared if he sees me? According to Ozpin his fight-or-flight response is normally run, but he fought us in the arena. Actually, he held back by not using his "emerald" eye, but...
