This has gone through several rewrites, but I think I have it.

Warning though: it has mature themes like: implied sexual themes, incest and death. Enjoy.

I would just like to mention by a Guest, I did not know 'The Silent Scream' was a video about abortions. I actually got the name from Anna Blue's music video, 'The Silent Scream'. Kinda fits with the pairing I have but if anyone is offended by the name, sorry. But I thought of another name. If anyone has any suggestions, PM me. besides, it's a alliteration. And I agreed with you, it is sickening, but most like anything else, it's a name. Nothing else.


Inheritors of the Grimm Markers

?'s POV, two years ago

I have been on the run since I was a child.

Until I was a teenager, I travelled to Vacuo, Mistral and Atlas.

No one accepted me as a person, they saw me as a animal.

And animals don't get respect.

Animals submit to masters and alphas.

Animals don't have names.

Animals die or survive.

The way I survive is submitting to men and hide from them. I didn't like it, but it's the only way to survive.

My face is rougher and looks like a boy and a girl, so they don't care, only my age which I never told them. And my body is abnormally more mature. So they did things I shouldn't have done yet, but I did.

Then the best day of my life happened. I was in an alleyway when two men came at me and started to pull at my hair and my dress.

They pushed me into a wall, nearly ripped off my dress until a voice came and said, "Hey, didn't anyone tell you to treat people with respect?"

It was a boy, just a year or two older than I was. What was he doing?

The two men drop me and charged at the boy. One of them bring out a knife and began to swing it to his head. He steps back and grabs the hand and stabs him while he was holding it. The second man tries to run but gets injured by the knife to the knee.

He walks up to the wounded men, "You or anyone else tries to hurt her, I'll make sure you die!"

The wounded men ran off limping.

He walks to me, I step back, and I tried to fight him.

He says, "Easy, easy! I'm not gonna hurt you."

I stop struggling and he crouches down.

"Mind telling me your name?" he asks.

Animals don't have a voice.

I grab a rock and I wrote on the wall, 'I don't have a voice.'

"You can't speak?" I nodded.

"Well. It's nothing serious, but I can teach something for people to understand."

I instinctively a step back, with hands to my head.

He understood why took a step back, "No, no! You don't have to be scared of me. I'm not like other men. Trust me. Swear till the day I die, I promise not to hurt you." I shyly took a step forward.

"My name is Randell Slate. What's yours?"

I write my stage name, 'Biar Ice.'

"Well then Biar, can I show you a secret?" I nod.

He rolls up his sleeves and I see markings. I found someone just like me.

I turn around and lift my hair to show mine.

"Well, glad we're in the same boat." he says.


Two years later

It's been two years since I met Randell. Ever since, we took several job from criminals and shady business.

I didn't care, as long as Randell is with me, I'm happy. He changed me from being a animal to a person.

He taught me how to defend myself if we separate, I don't intend to.

He also taught me sign language but I use gestures and make faces sometimes for people to see my emotions.

Randell has been the only person I trust, no one else.

We're currently in Vale, in a shop called 'From Dust Till Dawn.'

There was only one customer here, a girl with a red cloak.

Randell's POV

I was looking for some magazines for Biar to read.

She seems interested in weapons. Too interested.

I pick and look at some Dust, contemplating if I should steal some to get Lien.

I know I shouldn't I thought to myself but I did. Wasn't worth it when a guy and five goons come in and held the shopkeeper at gunpoint.

Biar's in trouble! I have to get to her out of here.

I whispered to Biar, "Hey, get out of here."

She looks distressed, "don't worry. I'll be fine." She nods and goes to sneak off.

The guy speaks, "do you have any idea how hard it is to find a Dust shop open at this time?"

One of his goons points a gun at the shopkeeper, "Grab the Dust." The guy with the cigar said.

One of the goons shout, "Hey, hands up kids!"

I go to put my hands up, the girl in red doesn't.

I tap her shoulder and she reacts.

I hear someone shouting, "Hey, get over here!"

No, no, no! They found her!

I try to run to her but one of them comes at me at gunpoint, "Hey stop kid!"

I turn to the man and the girl hits him?

I got an opportunity to go to Biar!

"Biar!" I shouted as I come to hug her.

A man appears from the aisle "Freeze!"

We ran at the man and he tries to shoot us. We sidestep, Biar kicks in the stomach and Biar throws me to him so I can kick him out the window.

We jumped out of shop with the girl in red coming out with us.

We readied our weapons in hand, my handmade wooden swords and Biar' brass knuckles.

The girl brings out her scythe!?

The idiot with the cigar speaks, "Seriously? Three kids with weapons at a Dust shop at night. This is ridiculous!"

He looks at his men, "What are you waiting for, go!"

The five thugs came at us, three to the girl and the other to us.

Biar's POV

One of the men came at me, but I sidestep to hit the man in the face with my brass knuckles and he goes down.

Randell disarms his man and swings both his swords at his stomach and legs.

I see the girl in red got hers, "Get over here!"

A man… grabbing me!?

I silently screamed, "Biar!"

The man turns me front forward, put his arm around my neck, and places his hand on my shoulder.

I struggle to get out of his grip, "Nobody move or the girl gets-uughh, why?"

I've kicked him where I shouldn't have and he drops to caress himself.

Randell comes to hug me, "Biar!"

I return his hug and smile.

The cigar-smoking "Well I see you were all worth every penny, truly. Seriously, hate to break this love thing you have, but I got places to be and it's not here."

He goes to point his cane and fire at us!?

The girl with the cape jumps up while we move back.

We go to compose ourselves and I see the man climbing the ladder.

I tug Randell and point to him, he goes to shout to the girl, "Good job Biar. Hey girl! On the rooftops!"

The girl goes to shoot up while Randell gives me a boost for a head start.

Randell's POV

I go to politely stare away from Biar and come up.

The cigar man stops at the edge, "Kids are persistent."

He goes to the edge of the roof and an aircraft comes from below.

He goes to throw a Dust crystal and fires his cane, I go to shield Biar but a woman comes out of nowhere and shields us.

She goes to attack the airship and another woman is in the aircraft and attacks her.

The one in the ship throws fire at the woman and she shield herself with debris.

She goes to attack the ship but the one in the ship burns it to ash.

The airship leaves and the woman stares at it.

The girl in red looks excited about the woman, "You're a Huntress! Can I have your autograph?"


Biar's POV, a few hours later

We're waiting in a room for someone to talk to us.

I nervously move around my chair and I 'talk' to Randell, 'Are we in trouble? Are they gonna-'

Randell interrupts me, "No, they're not gonna take you away from me, I promised that I'll be with you."

I go to grab his hand and he place his other on mine.

The door opens to reveal a silver haired man in a black and green suit with glasses.

The man speaks, "Am I interrupting something?"

Randell replies, "No sir."

The man shows us a video of our fight.

How did he get that?

The man speaks with curiosity, "If I'm seeing this correctly, you two faced against armed men with weapons and guns, yet you took down easily them down with wooden swords and brass knuckles."

Randell replies, "It wasn't that hard, they had training, we had survivability."

He asks us, "What are your names?"

"I'm Randell Slate and that's Biar Ice."

He looks to me. Why? Does he want to do something to me?

I nervously move to Randell's chair, the man asks me, "Can't you speak for yourself?"

Randell answers for me "she's a mute, I found her like this. I taught sign language. She prefers expressing then using it though."

He asks another question, "You FOUND her like this?"

Oh no, oh no no no. He's gonna take me away from him and give to some snob!

Randell gives an answer, "We been with each other for two years, but we're stronger together, no one can separate us."

He glances at me, "Perhaps the girl would want to me directly."

I nervously 'talk' to him, 'hello, are you going to take me away?"

He chuckles a bit, "Not in the slightest. Do you know who I am?"

We both shook our heads.

"I am Professor Ozpin, Headmaster of Beacon Academy."

My eyes slightly shines, Beacon was my favorite thing to read about.

Especially its Headmaster.

"Wait a moment, would you? I like to give you something." He walks out of the room.

I look to Randell, 'Randell, it's Professor Ozpin! Headmaster of Beacon. This is our chance to have new life and do something for a change!'

He seems conflicted, "I don't know, he may be Headmaster and could offer us as students, but he could leave out on the streets."

I give him the puppy-eyes.

"Ok, I'll listen to him."

Professor Ozpin comes back, "sorry for the wait, but I was getting you two something."

It looked like those cookies at a bakery, I cautiously take a cookie and bite into it, I take three more.

He looks at us, "Randell, you don't want any?"

"I'm don't have much of a sweet-tooth."

Ozpin looks at him with his stoic face, "Shame. Now to the reason. You two have skills you're not aware of. Coming to Beacon is recommended."

What does he know? He's so cool.

'Why do you want us?' I asked.

"You two have potential that can be put to better use and you have don't have to barely get by."

Randell goes for his thinking position, "A few things we require before we agreed."

"That is?"

He leans forward to Ozpin, "We want weapons like one of those combat schools have."

He instantly gave a reply, "Of course, we wouldn't want you to feel left out. Welcome to Beacon. And what kind?"

"Two swords that can turn into one greatsword and twin axes that have shotguns on it."


Randell's POV

Ozpin accepted us to Beacon, and we're in a ship, to Beacon.

Biar's jumping around like a mad rabbit. She actually met Ozpin.

I slightly give her a frown, "Thought you hated men."

She punches my shoulder and finally uses signs, 'I do hate men, except you of course, but Ozpin is accepting people of all backgrounds. He doesn't care if you came from a rich or poor family, Human or Faunus.'

"Does that include us with our Grimm markings; you think he didn't notice your neck? Or my arms?"

Her face indicates that she didn't even thought of that.

'Well, maybe he'll be accepting of that.'

I sigh, "You're too optimistic for your own good. I swear it." she pouts at me.

Biar's POV

He's such a idiot sometimes.

I look around and I see the girl from before.

I tap Randell's shoulder, "Yeah?"

I point to the girl and I give my look of curiosity.

He looks to whom I'm pointing too, "Are you sure? We have to be careful who we make friends with?"

I give him an assertive look, "Fine."

We stand and walked to the girl in red, "Oh, hey there! You two were in the Dust shop when those guys attacked."

I give her a nod.

The blondie bluntly says, "Don't like talking?"

I give her a glare. Randell says why, "She's mute."

The blond instantly regretted it by the look on face, "Oh man, I'm sorry!"

I give her a dismissive wave; I'm used to the question but still annoys me time to time.

Silence.

Randell usually translates for me, but this time, I elbow him, hard. "Ow! She wants to know your names."

The blond goes first, "I'm Yang. That's my little sister Ruby."

I wave to Ruby to indicate me saying hello.

"I'm Randell and she's Biar."

Randell eyes diverts to Ruby, "Ruby, you look a little more younger to enroll."

Ruby slouches, "I got moved two years to Beacon. Lucky me."

Her face tells us that she's not happy about it.

Yang slings her arm around Randell, "Well Randell, now that introduction are over, wanna tell me where you came from?"

"Ew…" Ruby exclaims.

I hissed (well I posed hissing) at Yang, "Whoa! Ok, I'm backing off!"

I didn't like men touching me and I didn't like women touching Randell.

Randell turns to me, "Biar!"

Yang seems confused, "Sorry, I didn't know you two were together."

My cheeks turn blood red and I cross my arms to make a 'X', "Uh, we're not together."

Yang is now more confused, "You two act like a couple."

I nervously tug at Randell's shirt and hide behind him, "Dammit, you made her shy." Randell said to Yang.

Yang replied, "Oh sorr-"

Before she can say sorry, we're interrupted by a hologram of the Huntress last night. "Hello, and welcome to Beacon."

Randell asked, "We never got her name." "My name Glynda Goodwitch." "Oh." The hologram somehow answered his question. I silently laugh and place my hand to cover my mouth.

"You are among a privileged few who have received the medal of being selected to attend this prestigious academy. Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future Huntsmen and Huntresses, it is your duty to up hold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now, it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world." She disappears after that.

We look to the window to see Beacon Academy.

Ruby speaks, "You can see Signal from here."

We see a building that Ruby points to. We assume it's Signal.

Randell is thinking, his ears are perking up and are learning to the back, "Think this is our chance to have new life, now you have it."

We see a blond guy near to vomiting, "Guess some people don't like the view."

This was our chance to do something good for a change.


A.N 4/11/18: don't look at me. I found my beginning.

I would certainly appreciate if you leave feedback.

And if you do, thanks.

Have a nice day Reading!
