The Schnee Summoner (Rewrite)

Prologue: Shattered Glass

Smalt Schnee, the older twin brother of Weiss Schnee, was an unusual child. This was due to him having his aura active at birth, although it was in a very dormant state and wasn't even capable of shielding Smalt from damage.

Although, this wasn't the only thing that made Smalt unusual. Smalt also had an imaginary friend that he called Lapis, although, to Smalt, she wasn't imaginary.

Over the years, people assumed that Smalt would discard the idea of Lapis and he would be a normal child. Much to the ire of his father, Jacques Schnee, that never happened. Smalt continued to have his "imaginary" friend and insisted she was real.

Jacques had enough of this after an event, which leads us to here:

A twelve-year-old boy with white hair that fades into cobalt blue tips and has cobalt blue eyes, walks through the halls of Schnee Manor on his way to his father's study. Smalt knows his father is angry with him, but that's nothing new. Jacques has always been like that, ever since he revealed that he only married Smalt's mother for the company. His older sister, Winter, leaving to become a huntress didn't help matters.

As he walks up to the dark oak doors to Jacques' study, Smalt takes a deep breath before knocking. The sound echos through the halls of the mansion.

???: Enter.

Smalt pushes the doors open and enters Jacques' study. The CEO of the Schnee Dust Company sits behind his dark oak desk.

Smalt(bowing his head): You called father?

Jacques seems to glare at his son for a moment before standing from his desk and approaching Smalt.

Jacques(walking around Smalt): Do you know why your here?

Smalt: No father.

Jacques: No!? (Smalt flinches) Well then let me explain. You discussed your fake friend during an important event! Do you know how bad that makes me look!? My twelve year old son still has imaginary friends!

Smalt opens his mouth, but quickly shuts it, to scared to speak.

Jacques: I've had it with your antics! From now on you will act like a proper heir for the Schnee Dust Company. No more of these childish things, and you will forget about your stupid imaginary friend.

Smalt narrows his eyes.

Smalt: Lapis is real, and I refuse to forget her-!

Smalt is cut off when Jacques, who was standing behind the boy, punches him in the back of the head. Smalt cries out in pain as he falls to the floor.

Jacques: Enough! If you won't let this go, then I'll just have to force you to!

Smalt, who was trying to get up, cries out in pain as foot slams into his chest, knocking the air out of him. Another kick smashes into his right side.

Smalt(sitting up): Stop pleas-

Smalt is cut off, again, when a fist slams into his face. A crack is heard as Smalt slams back onto the floor while reaching up to hold his bloody and broken nose.

Smalt's cries of pain last late into the night.

Timeskip(brought to you by Smalt clutching his emblem protectively)

Smalt, bruised, bloody, and sporting a broken nose, stumbles into his room while trying not to wake Weiss. Apparently, being fairly injured makes being stealthy hard.

Weiss(sleepily): Smalt?

Weiss sits up from her bed and her drowsiness vanishes upon seeing her twin's condition.
