His eyes were trying to adjust to the smoke, 'eye, I only have one now,' shaking the thought from his head and stood up looking around for any sign of where he was. There were buildings burning all around him and in the distance he could hear screaming and growls, he started to remember, this is when it happened.
He looked up from the ground his hands tied behind his back, these men guarding him were in danger but not from the grimm, he looked around he needed to find her, she was all he had left and he wasn't going to let them take her away. The smell of blood was thick in the air, he couldn't remember where they took her but if they hurt her they would pay. Out of the corner his eye he saw her, the man who tied his hands behind his back had her, she wasn't moving. He saw red, with the last of his strength he pulled against his restraints, they were strong and when he felt them give he heard them break but he didn't care, she was all that mattered. One of the guards stepped in front of him, without hesitation he sank his teeth into the man's neck and yanked his head to the side, grabbing the knife from the man's belt as he fell. He started to run, he had to get to her, he heard a shout then a shot fired, the man turned to look at him. The man pulled his gun from his belt and aimed at the young man sprinting toward him when he heard him scream one word, a name.
"Kat!" Argo screamed as he sat up in his seat, scaring the poor girl next to him, everyone near him on the airship looked at him. "Sorry," he said to anyone who could hear him, "nightmare." Some people still stared at him but most went back to what they were doing, Argo rubbed his face trying to catch his breath, out the corner of his eye he could see the girl he scared looking at him nervously.
"A-are you okay?" The girl asked him, trying to be nice even when she was afraid, he could respect that. He just nodded, he wasn't much of a talker. She looked at him with a shaky smile, "My name's Glynda, Glynda Goodwitch, nice to meet you." She held her hand out for him to shake, he took her hand, his completely engulfing hers and shook.
"I'm Argo Chernyy." He let go of her hand and noticed the curious look she was giving him, he hadn't taken down his hood.
"So are you two gonna kiss now or what?" Argo and Glynda jumped when the red headed guy sitting behind them popped up to add his two cents into the conversation. Glynda glared at the guy, while Argo fought the urge to punch him in the face, the redhead smiled. "The name's Roman Torchwick by the way, you might want to remember it I'm gonna be a famous hero some day." Argo didn't like this guy he was full of himself, and clearly thought he was better than them.
"The only thing you're going to be famous for is being beaten up before you even get to Beacon." Argo said, making Glynda chuckle. Roman looked pissed, but tried to keep up his air of superiority, it wasn't working.
"Well we all can't be famous for killing people like you big man." Roman stated nonchalantly making Argo freeze. Glynda looked at him in confusion, and Roman had a shit eating grin plastered across his face, until he was three feet of the ground with Argo's massive hand around his throat. Roman looked at Argo in fear when he noticed that his eye had lost all emotion, he was completely dead inside. Argo slowly tightened his grip, watching as realization filled Roman's eyes, he was going to die here.
"Stop!" Glynda screamed as she grabbed Argo's arm trying to make him let go. He looked down at her and suddenly she was someone else, blonde hair replace with brown, eyes full of fear replaced with eyes full of sadness. With a jolt he dropped Roman, taking a step back and looking around he saw everyone staring at him again. He looked out the window and saw Beacon tower, 'close enough' he thought, concentrating on the tower he took a step back and vanished. "Where did he go?" Glynda looked around trying to find Argo, eight and a half foot tall men don't just evaporate into thin air.
"Who cares, good riddance," Roman said as he stood up massaging his throat. "I'm surprised they let a monster like him into Beacon in the first place-" He was interrupted by Glynda's hand across his cheek.
"You asshole, I should have let him kill you, you making fun of him started this, are you really that stupid?" Glynda asked clearly more angry at him than at Argo.
"I wasn't making fun of him I was stating the truth, he's from Mystral like me, he killed 6 huntsmen with his bare hands a year ago, after being practically ripped in half by an ursa. The guy who finally stopped him put four fire dust rounds in his chest before he dropped." Roman explained as a group of people form a circle to listen, clearly he was happy to be the center of attention.
"He was trying to defend his sister," a man with glasses and gray hair said as he made his way through the crowd. "He's a bear faunus, he was injured and his instincts took over, he didn't want to hurt anyone, he just reacted."
"And who are you?" Roman asked, clearly angry at being interrupted. "His boyfriend, you seem to know an awful lot about him."
"My name is Oskar Ozpin, and my father was one of the men who survived his outburst, and if my father says he's a good man I believe him." Before Roman could respond the pilot came over the intercom to say they were about to land, and all passengers need to be seated. As Glynda went back to her seat a thought came back to her, where did Argo go. She looked out the window and say him sitting under a tree in the school courtyard, eating an apple. She couldn't believe her eyes, 'maybe this Ozpin guy is right about him.'
AN:I'm alive, the computer I was using to write my stories finally died, and my new one I got seems to hate me. I've written this chapter four times, sorry to anyone who was waiting for my next update.
