A/N: I really wanted to write this story, as a matter of fact it kept me awake just thinking about it last night. Please enjoy and tell me what you think so far.
I stumbled out of the dark and into the blinding light; I blinked rapidly breathing heavily as I attempted to stand straight up. I looked through blurry eyes at the people as they walked by me, unaware or unfazed at the sight of my bloody and tattered body. What little cloth that still clung to my body was merely draped over me. I opened my mouth to speak but I made no sounds. I leaned forward in an attempt to make someone notice me as my body grew heavy and my eyesight dwindled rapidly.
In an instant I was lying on the floor and I looked up, I saw four figures standing above me, two of which moved about franticly. I smiled knowing that someone had seen me and maybe they would help. I tried to sit up but I couldn't move, I moved my eyes willing them to become clearer. My eyes slowly became easier to move and my vision cleared up. I blinked and looked up directly into very light blue eyes.
"Are you alright? What happened to you?" I snapped back to reality and realized I hadn't been able to hear anything up until that point.
"S-s-Ick...c-c-UR-e...d-d-US-t." I managed to squeak out as I coughed up blood.
"Icarrus? Did he say his name was Icarrus?" A young woman with red hair asked the woman with black hair next to her.
"No Ruby he said 'Sick, Cure, Dust.' I think he has dust poisoning. We need to get him to the hospital and quick." The one whose eyes I had looked into said.
"Yang, Blake grab him quick." The red haired girl said. The two other ones both grabbed one of my arms and draped it over their shoulders. The lifted me up and carried me quickly down the street. I was about to thank them as I faded in and out of consciousness. I regained consciousness as I was laid down once again but this time on something soft and I looked around and saw a white room and people dressed in white robes walking about. I tensed up remembering what the white robes meant.
"NO!" I shouted. "Please no more tests!" I screamed at the top of my lungs and tried to get off the bed. I was held down by all four of the women and they managed to strap me down. I looked at the white haired one with tears in my eyes. "Please let me go, the tests always hurt." She looked visibly distraught and grabbed my hand.
"You're going to be just fine I promise. I will be right here and I'll make sure nothing happens." I clenched onto her hand for dear life wishing her words were true. I felt a prick in my arm and suddenly my whole body became warm and I started going numb all over. I felt my grip on her hand loosen and then hers tighten up. I became very tired and sleepy, I blinked heavily.
"I'll try harder next time Doctor I swear." I said with my last ounce of strength and then there was nothing.
I opened my eyes and yawned; I looked around and saw the white haired girl still clutching my hand as she sat leaned over the side of the bed. The three others I found sleeping in the corner of the room. I heard the door open so I shut my eyes quickly. I heard footsteps as they approached my bed.
"Just who are you? With that amount of dust still in your body you should have been dead before they even found you and yet here you are alive even with the huge amount you still have in you." I felt a hand grab the underside of my wrist and rest on my vein. "A good steady pulse, fantastic you should make a full recovery young man." The hand withdrew and the sound of footsteps as they got farther away filled my ears.
"The Doctor could have at least woke me up." The voice came from right next to me. I opened my eyes and looked at her. Our eyes made contact. "Morning, you feeling better?"
I couldn't break eye contact as I just stared into the pale blue pools that were her eyes. "Yeah...I'm feeling a lot better now." I said slowly still not looking away and neither did she.
"By the way I'm Weiss, Weiss Schnee and you are?" She asked as her hand loosened on mine.
"7, Subject 7." I said and she broke eye contact.
"Subject 7? Like a test subject? You don't have a real name?" She asked leaning in slowly.
"Yeah that's the name they gave me." I said as I tried to sit up.
"Who are they?" She asked as she once again tightened her grip on my hand.
"The doctors at the research facility who ran tests on me." I felt the restraints still held me down so I stopped trying to sit up.
"That's horrible how did you escape?" She reached over and started to undo the straps.
"I don't know. I remember them starting a test and then I remember walking out of the dark and into the light." I sat up now free from the restraints.
"You mean you don't know how you got into the alley or anything before that?" She handed me a glass of water and I sipped on it.
"No not a thing. This is actually the first time I have ever been out of that place. Doctor Serena told me I was born in there. She taught me how to read and write, she practically raised me. She said my mother was very poor and she sold me to them." I drank down the rest of the water.
"I'm so sorry. That sounds so sad." Weiss leaned back and looked away.
"You don't have anything to be sorry for-" I was cut off by the girl with red hair waking up.
"Yang, Blake wake up Icarrus is awake." the red haired one said as she shook the other two.
"Icarrus?" I said, I was sufficiently confused and that showed greatly on my face.
"Yeah that's what you said your name was right?" She said as she cracked her back and stood. "You kind of look like an Icarrus too." I tilted my head to the side.
"And what exactly does an Icarrus look like?" I asked folding my arms.
"Well short messy jet black hair, Light purple eyes, tall, muscular, really cute face. The usual things." Weis stood quickly.
"Ruby!" She shouted.
"No Ruby's right he is cute, not my type but cute never-the-less." The yellow haired woman said as she walked closer. "Hi Icarrus my name is Yang Xiao Long, and this is my sister Ruby Rose and the Beautiful Faunus to my left is Blake Belladonna, She's part cat." She leaned in with those last words. I stifled a laugh which cause all four of them to look at me.
"Sorry it's just how you said it reminded me of Doctor Serena." I said still holding back a laugh.
"Who?" Ruby, Yang and Blake all said at the same time.
"Guys could you come with me for a second?" Weiss said as she shoved them out of the room. I sat in silence for a few minutes then they all came back into the room and none of them made eye contact. I thought for a second.
"About the name Icarrus." I started to say then Ruby interrupted.
"Sorry it's just that I th-" She started.
"I like it. It's a lot better than Subject 7. So from now on call me Icarrus Sebastian." I said with pride. Ruby smiled and the rest joined her.
"Ok Icarrus Sebastian what are you planning on doing now?" Blake asked as she leaned against the wall.
"I'd like to see what a real school is like." I said looking towards the window. "And try to live a normal life."
