She pouted, crossing her arms. It was to tight and uncomfortable and she didn't want to wear a dress everywhere. The five year old Weiss turned to her father and mother.

"Mom, this is uncomfortable, I don't like it." She complained

"You must begin to act and look like a proper young lady. You are an heiress, one day our this company will be yours. You cannot look like anything except perfect." Her mother smiled at her, obviously liking what she saw even if Weiss didn't.

"But I don't like it..." Weiss complained again.

"She is not fit to be the heiress, you would be much better off letting me take charge."Her sister Winter said. She was twelve, dressed in a proper white dress, hair neatly done and she was staring at Weiss with annoyance. "She cant even wear a dress, much less run this company."

"That is enough, Winter. Weiss will learn. Oum knows she still has plenty of time to learn." Her father said while looking at his scroll. He would've preferred to be in his office, he had a lot of work. But his wife had convinced to join for this.

Winter rolled her eyes, walking out. She called over her shoulder as she left. "Well I will be studying and maybe practicing my sword play. Good bye." Weiss looked down. Why couldn't her sister ever be nice to her?

"Weiss, don't mind her. Its just a phase, she will get over it." Her mother said. She always said that. "Weiss dear, would you please turn around? I think it needs a little more stitching." Weiss complied, though obviously unhappy. Her mother held her still, doing a quick sew job.

"Good, test it now." Weiss did and found that her mother had listened to her. The dress was not as tight and much more comfortable. She turned to her mother and nodded. "Its nice. It feels good now." She had to admit, now that she felt fine she did in fact like the dress, it was pretty and matched her skin and hair. Yep, white hair. Natural white hair.

Her mother smiled at Weiss, cupping her cheek in a hand. "Your so pretty Weiss. When you grow up you will be a beautiful women." Weiss smiled at the compliment, then turned to her father. "What do you think Daddy?"

His fist slammed into the chair. "Dust dammit! Those stupid animals of the White Fang!" Her father yelled, scaring Weiss. She hated when he got like this, it scared her.

"Honey, whats wrong? Whats happened now?" Ms. Schnee asked, putting a hand on her fathers arm.

"Those...those murderers of the fang! They killed him!" Her father looked down, a sob escaping. Weiss was, well, shocked. Her father may have had fits and stress but she had never ever seen him cry. Or get this close to crying.

"What did they do?" He mother asked, already dreading the answer.

"They...they killed, they killed my father. Executed him in front of the workers." Winter walked in at the moment, having heard the yells f anger and then what had happened.

"Weiss, lets go. I need some help." Her sister lied, grabbing Weiss´s hand and walking out of the room.

"I-i never saw daddy so sad..." Weiss mumbled.

Winter sighed, going on a knee to look Weiss on the face. "Weicy, we never tell you but the company has...bad people after it...do you know what just happened?"

She shook her head. "Something happened to grandfather. I didn't understand what." Winter hugged Weiss, a tear falling down her face. "Hes gone. We wont ever see him again, all thanks to the White Fang. I-i´m sorry I have to tell you like this." Weiss hugged Winter back and began to cry, she still wasn't sure what they meant, but she did understand that her grandfather would never be seen again. It made her sad. Winter was very patient with her, letting her cry for a little while before carrying her to her bedroom.

"Weiss...we need to be strong. Ok? For dad. He needs us." Winter gave her a small smile, laying heron the bed. "I know its a lot to ask, but for dad, understand?"

"I-i think..." She nodded at Winter, wiping her eyes. "For dad."

"Thats my sister." Winter began to walk out, still looking quite sad. She stopped by the door and looked back at Weiss. "You´ll make a great leader one day. You´ll make us all proud." She said softly before leaving.
