RWBY: The Past That Followed

Y/N Rose was never meant to stay.

Born into a family that should have loved him, he instead became something they feared. Power came naturally to him... too naturally. What should have been pride turned into resentment, and resentment into something far darker. Day by day, the place he once called home became a cage.

So he left.

No goodbye. No second thoughts.

Just a silent escape into a world that felt less suffocating than the one behind him.

Beacon Academy was supposed to be a fresh start. A place where he could carve his own path as a Huntsman... alone, if he had to. And he did. A team of one. No attachments. No distractions.

Until fate decided he wasn't done yet.

And somewhere along that path, the past he abandoned is waiting.

Watching.
