All Out of Time
"You either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain"
My name is Timothy Rose Torchwick and let me tell you how I got here. But before that here's a brief description of what I look like. I wear a black trenchcoat with a plain black shirt and pants a fedora all with orange trim I have black hair with orange tips and my weapons are a blue bladed katana that folds back and allows me to shoot flares and or explosive rounds.
I somehow landed right next to what seemed to be a dust shop "From Dust Till Dawn huh weird might as well go in and check to see if I could refill my dust rounds". So I walk in and it seems empty except for the old man who runs the place, so I decide to look in the ammo aisle to see if they sell any decent quality explosive rounds. I find the ammo I'm looking for so I walk to the counter to "pay" for this stuff. Now normally I'm no thief that's dad's forte but I have zero lien on me so for right now I'm stuck with stealing.
"Excuse me sir but I hope you plan on paying for that dust today".
"Heh don't worry about that sir I plan on paying for this dust" of course I was lying but he didn't need to know that. I activate my semblance "I will be taking this dust and that is ok". Now most people would be like how did you make that man give you the dust with a semblance, I will tell you my semblance is a somewhat passive ability I like to call it My Silver Tongue, only one person is able to resist it and that was my dad.
"Yes I will let you take the dust and not stop you".
"That's a good mindless moron, now where am I"?
"You are in the country of Vale next to Beacon".
"Beacon, oh no looks like I got here before it was destroyed which means I might see mom again yes"! I decided to hightail it out of there before the old fart got out of his trance, but weirdly enough I ran into some red haired guy and some other guys in red suits barge into the shop. "Well that can't be good, best stick around and get them on the way out". So I hid by the side of the building only to hear a girl yell and one of the suits come flying out the window.
"A red caped girl with a red scythe now unless I'm going blind that's mom"! I run over to help her out only to see she's dispatched all the goons except the guy in the bowler hat with the red hairrrrr. Hold it I know who that is Dad! Wow talk about long odds and to think I only got here by pressing one big red button on one of Ozpin's old machines and touched the resulting portal and then wham here I was.
Alright I'm going to have to help mom over dad so time to pull out Melodic Rose, my blue bladed gun katana. Shoots explosive rounds and flares a weapon for every occasion.
"Sir I'm going to have to ask you to hand over the dust or we do it the hard way" being honest here I was hoping for the hard way, I've always wanted an excuse to beat up dad.
"Kid do you know how you're talking to I'm the Roman Torchwick you know criminal mastermind, king of the underworld, et cetera et cetera".
"Yawn and what's your name Red since we seem to be introducing ourselves?"
"Me oh I'm Ruby, Ruby Rose who are you then"?
"Just call me Tim and I do believe that Da... I mean Torchwick is getting away".
"I got this" then she speeds off flying up a ladder onto the rooftop that Torchwick was on.
"Great now I have to catch up this is going to suck" I start running and climbing up the ladder complaining all the while. "Ok note to self work on my cardio, ok Torchwick you're surrounded and stuck just give up now".
"Ha kid you gotta learn something always have a plan B". Ok so he's throwing a red dust crystal, "oh no Ruby move now"!
"What"! She turns to look at me only to see me push her away from the explosion that happened when Roman shot the dust.
A neat thing Aura is, protects from explosives and the occasional "stray" bullet. When I get up I see Him in the side of a bullhead so what does guy with a gun sword do hmmm oh right start shooting the ship. Next thing I see is a blonde huntress start to shred the ship with what seems to be a purple glyph based semblance.
"Thanks for the assist mam but we had it taken care of before you got here".
"Sure you did kid now let a professional handle this".
Kid did she seriously call me kid I fought in a war which is more than she has probably ever done and she's the one calling me kid. "Sure thing mam it's not like I couldn't take him by myself no sir I'm just a dumb kid with a blue sword". Ugh she's irritating well I probably won't have to deal with her again I hope.
"Well excuse me at least I wasn't the one who let the criminal get away while berating some kid" I said putting air quotes around the word kid. Not to mention I was right Roman was starting to get away, well right until I put a hole in one of the engines. "Well that should slow them down for a while". Then of course Dad had to have Cinder stop flying and try to take us out hah not that they could tell because of the shadows.
"Grrr" Glynda growled. Then she started launching purple dust shards at the bullhead. Which then got reflected back at us only to disintegrate and leave the bullhead open to run from us.
"Well that settles that I'll be taking that as my cue to leave". I started to walk away only to find my grabbed onto by the collar of my coat.
Time skip
"Do you have any idea how irresponsible that was you could have gotten yourself killed or worse" Glynda ranted!
"Honestly mam but frankly I don't give a damn I've been well trained in taking out criminals I know how to handle myself".
"Really I have yet to see any instance of that and if it was up to me I would send you home with a pat on the back and a slap on the wrist". She then smacked her riding crop by my hand I didn't even flinch. That's when some guy in a green suit with gray hair walks in.
"Hello young man I'm professor Ozpin and you… remind me of two people"
Well this can't be good think to myself. "And just who do I remind you of" I say not liking where this is going.
He flips two photos in front of me one is a picture of mom and the other is one of dads many mugshots. "Care to explain why you bear a resemblance to these two".
"Heh well funny story actually, I'm from the future and I was fiddling with one of your old machines and I sort of pressed a button I shouldn't have".
"Hmm I see". That's when he starts staring at me almost like he's pondering something. "Well young man I would like to ask you two things".
"What would you like to ask"? I say knowing where this was going.
"Would you like to join my school and two what is your name"?
"My name is Timothy Rose Torchwick and this is the beginning of my story".
