"What do you mean you're leaving?" said a little Faunus girl about the age of 7. She's 3 and a half feet tall, has silver hair, blue eyes, and a silver Dragon's tail that's as long as her leg.
"I'm leaving to become a huntsmen and help the tribe defend against the Grimm," a tall, 17 year old, Dragon Faunus replied while leaning on a tree in the middle of a forest a few days west of Vale. He knelt down to her level and said with a smirk, "Now Silon, you wouldn't want to be gobbled up by a Beowulf now would you?"
Silon looked down in defeat, "No Sahqo..." she replied
Sahqo is a Dragon faunus. He is 6 feet 7 inches tall, extremely well built, has short black hair with dyed red tips, his eyes color changes with his mood, calm brown, and has a long dragon tail, and a large pair dragon wings and has a small pair of horns. The tail is 6 feet long and about half a foot thick at the base of the tail, at the tip it is very small, less than an inch. Sahqo will use his tail as a weapon from time to time. His wings are large, the wingspan is 12 feet. The high of each wing is 6 feet and 2 inches. His horns are small and go back with his skull, the tops point upwards. The color of his wings and tale are red and black. The horns are black and have a slight segmentation to them. Sahqo's clothes are a black sleeveless shirt, long black pants, and black military boots. His armor is a dark red chest plate with one red shoulder plate, on the right side. Red greaves on his legs, and red gauntlets on his forearms. On his right arm is black chainmail, that go's up and connects to the chest plate. On the shoulder plate is his emblem is the tribe's dragon head. His facial features are slightly different. He has a slightly elongated snout and has a sharp row of teeth. He has patches of scales around his eyes and around the brow. He has patches of scales around his elbows and knees. His skin and scale color are slightly tanned.
"Now I'm not leaving yet. I still got two more day before I leave, and besides you got Ved here," said Sahqo trying to convince his little sister. "You didn't do this when Ved left?"
"Yeah but I was two, I wasn't saying full sentences till I was four," Silon crossed her arms over here chest and pouted. Sahqo got up from his kneeling position and rubbed her hair. He stopped and looked through her hair and found two bumps forming, "Looks like your horns are coming in," he said rubbing her hair again.
Silon put her hands on her head, "yeah but I want my wings to grow in"
"Well my wings grew in when I was about your age..."
"Sahqo!"
Sahqo turned to the call and saw a tribe scout. "What is it?" He said.
"You're father wants you and your brother to meet him in his tent," the Scot answered.
"alright," he agreed and turns to Silon, "go to mother and I'll play with you later," he rubbed her hair again and walked to his father's tent
Sahqo got to the outside of his father's tent where he saw his older brother, Ved, waiting for him.
Ved is as tall as Sahqo, has black hair, black wings and a long black tail. Ved looked ten years older the Sahqo. Ved saw Sahqo spread his arms out in joy, "Sahqo! So that scot did find you?" He'd ask with a laugh.
"Yes he did. Do you know why father has ask us to come?" Sahqo asked.
"Maybe." His brother answered. He looked around and whispered, "The scots say that a White Fang messenger has come in to ask the Sosdovah tribe to join the Fang."
Sahqo growled, "Father would never make the tribe join those fakes."
Ved sighed, "Just because they aren't pure blooded Faunus, doesn't mean that they are still Faunus."
Sahqo grumbled, "I know that, but they give Faunus like us a very bad name."
His brother laughed, "come on lets us not keep our father waiting."
Sahqo and Ved went in to there father's tent and saw there father "talking" to a White Fang member. Sahqo's father is a 7 foot tall giant with gold fated wings and tail, gray hair and carrying a dust staff. He wears robes that signify his Keeper status, and shows his power.
"Keeper Yuvon, listen to reason! All Faunus are endanger of humanity, they see us as nothing more then animals," the White Fang messenger said.
Yuvon stood over the small dog faunus, "Do not associate tribe Sosdovah with the White Fang. We are nothing like you," he turns to his sons, "ah my sons, please escort his man out of our camp, before he causes trouble" Yuvon asks his sons.
Sahqo and Ved walked to the White Fang member, "You can leave quietly or leave bleeding" Sahqo threatened.
The White Fang messenger threw his hands up in defeat and walked out with the two dragon brothers. "An entire tribe filled with pure blooded Dragon Faunus and not one cares about our cause," the White Fang messenger grumbled.
"Just keep moving" Ved ordered.
"Your tribe is full of soldiers, you should be fighting with us, not wondering endlessly," the messenger said.
"Yes, we got plenty of soldiers, but not everyone's a combatant. Some of our women don't fight and we have children who don't even have their wings yet. Now shut up and keep moving," Sahqo replied.
The camp is large, the tribe holds 100 proud tribes men and in the middle of a forest a few days west of Vale. The Keeper's tent is at the back of the camp. The camp is almost the size of a small town. When the 3 faunus reached the of the camp, the two brothers stop. "This is were we part ways, this is your first and final warning, don't come back," Sahqo warned.
The messenger shuck his head and walked to nearest White Fang camp a half day's walk away from the tribe's camp. The day was ending and Sahqo decided he would sleep after reporting to his father that the messenger has left.
In his father's tent Ved has left to see to his own family, and Sahqo is talking to Yuvon. "So you really are leaving..." Yuvon stated more than asked to Sahqo.
"Yes father, but not for another two days," Sahqo replied.
"I know... I'm just afraid of losing you," Yuvon said in a sad voice.
"Ved came back alright, Ozpin is a good man. He's asking more and more Faunus to join his school every year, and plus it will help the tribe out with the Grimm," his son stated while putting a hand on his father's shoulder. Yuvon laughed, "I guess you have a pint, my son."
Sahqo hugged his father and went to his tent. When he returned to his tent he was tackled to the ground. When he looked up he saw his sister, Silon, and her best friend, Sot, on his chest. Sot was the same age and was as tall as Silon, Sot had a white tail, and white hair. "Silon, Sot what are you doing?" He asked.
They both said, "We want to play."
Sahqo sighed, "Alright, can I get up first?"
"No" came the replied.
He sighed again and grabbed the back of both girls' shirts and lifted them to the air and got himself up while still holding the girls. "Now girls you do know it's late and I got to get to bad, I'll play with you two tomorrow. Deal?" Sahqo proposed.
"Okay..." was all that was heard and he put the girls down. "Come on let's see if we can get Ved to play," said Silon, and they ran off.
Sahqo chuckled and walked to his weapon Dragon's Rage and pick it up to sharpen and clean. Dragon's Rage is a 6 foot long black steel great sword that is a foot wide, 3 inches thick, with a 2 feet long oval grip. Has a hand guard that is a foot and a half long, that runs parallel with the grip. After an hour of that, he went to bed.

When he woke up he heard the war horn blowing saying that they are being attacked. Sahqo jumped up and got his gear on in record time, grabbed Dragon's Rage and ran to his father's tent. He saw his father giving orders to some warriors, Ved and a scot.
"how many of them boy?" said his father to the scot.
"at least 1,000 Keeper," he replied. "They'll surround us any minute keeper."
"Shit..." Yuvon looked to Ved, " Ved you and your wife get all non-combatants out of her. NOW!"
"Yes father!" Ved replied and ran.
"Father what is happening, are we being attacked and by who?" Sahqo asked.
Yuvon looked to Sahqo, "Yes my son, it seem the White Fang did not like my answer to their recruitment. If they can't have us no one will."
"Keeper what are you orders?" said the scot.
"Stand and fight, that is my order. Sahqo..." Yuvon looked at his son.
"Yes father?" He asked ready for the fight of his life.
"Run. Run and grab your sister and run to Beacon. Survive and take this with you," he gives a tome and his father silver locket.
"But father you-" he protested.
"No buts, just go!"
Sahqo looked at the tome and back to Yuvon, "Alright but I'm not leaving you empty handed." Sahqo pocketed the stuff and clapped his hands together and out in front of him. His Aura resonated out in bright red and forming a giant Nevermore size aura dragon came and stood in front of the 3. Sahqo turned to Yuvon, "Good luck father," and ran to find Silon.
Sahqo found Silon in his tent crying. She saw Sahqo and yelled, "Sahqo what's happening, where's father and Ved?!"
"We're under attack, father's fine and Ved evacuating non-combatants. Father send me to find you, because you'll be looking for me. Come on we're leaving." He commanded.
"What?!" Was all she said before Sahqo picked her up and ran out of the tent and eventually the camp. Silon saw the red aura dragon flying over head, breathing fire and eventually landing and exploding, taking at least a hundred White Fang.
"Sahqo where are we going?" She asked.
"Beacon."
They ran for hours heading east, towards Vale. They stoped for a short rest. Sahqo was looking for any White Fang soldier.
"Sahqo...?" Silon asked.
"yeah?" Sahqo replied breathing slightly heavy.
"What are we going to do if they finds us?"
"First, keep you safe. Second, kill everyone that gets in our way."
"Oh..."
He rubbed her hair to try and comfort her. They heard a twig snapped, Sahqo jumped up and grabbed his sword, "On my back now," he told her to. He felt Silon climb up on his back and he behind a large tree. They saw a White Fang soldier loudly walking through the forest, searching for them, and slowly coming their way. The soldier was eventually walking backwards towards them. When he was in rage, Sahqo pommled strike him on his head, knocking him out cold. Sahqo cheated his pols to see if he didn't kill him.
"d-did you kill him?" asked Silon.
"No, just knocked out" Sahqo replied and grabbed the soldier's side arm "You remember what father taught you about fire arms?"
"Yes, only aim if you intend to shoot, keep your finger off the trigger and aim small miss small" she answered.
"Good" he hands her the pistol, "be careful with it alright?"
"Alright" Silon got done and grabbed the pistol. Sahqo grabbed her hand and they slowly and quietly made their way east.

The sun is coming up by the time the neared the edge of the forest. "Hands were I can see them now!" a voice said behind them. Sahqo quickly clapped his hands together, before putting them up, Silon put her hands up as well. "Now turn around, slowly" they did as commanded. Sahqo was slowly raising his aura to deploy 3 wolf size aura dragons at the first sign of things going south. Sahqo saw 7 White Fang soldiers in front of him all with assault rifles, one of them had their sites on Silon, ready to shoot her if the order was given. In the middle was the leader of the group, "Ahhh look at what we got her boys. The Keeper's second eldest son and his youngest and only daughter. What a wonderful turn if events, and here we thought we got everyone."
"W-w-what do you mean?" Silon asked trying to hide behind Sahqo.
"Just what do you think? We killed and counted 98 over grown lizards. Unfortunately we're the only ones left" spoke the leader.
"What do you want, you would have killed us already if you didn't want something?" Sahqo demanded.
"Straight to the point, eh? It's a shame we have to kill you. We want Yuvon Sosdovah's journal, it holds the tribe's secrets passed down to Keeper to Keeper."
"If my father didn't have is on him, then he most likely burned it." Sahqo lied.
"Hmm... kill the girl" the leader order.
The next the Sahqo know was a gun shot and his sister screaming in pain. Sahqo unleashed his 3 aura dragons, tackling 3 soldiers before Sahqo rushed up to the leader and cleaving him in half. Sahqo's dragons blew up leaving 2 injured and one scared shitless. Sahqo charged at the closes one and sliced him in two. One came from behind him, but Sahqo caught him by using his tail. Sahqo swigs his to the ground a couple of times and throws him to a far tree and hearing a most satisfying thud. The last was on the ground trying to escape the beast. Sahqo grabbed by the leg, pulled the man towards him and plugged his sword into his opponent's chest.
When everything was over Sahqo ran to his sister and dropped his weapon next to her. She was still alive but bleeding heavily. The bullet went through her left lung and out the back, she was deathly pale, blood was trickling down her mouth, and was breathing unevenly.
"No... No... Nononono. NO! I can't lose you, don't die please, Silon!" Sahqo started to cry as he held her close. When she passed on Sahqo yelled out a loud cry that could be heard for miles around. A soon to be second year team heard it.

Coco, the leader of team CFVY, and her team was clearing out the area of Grimm, when they heard a loud scream. "I think someone's in trouble, let's go check it." Coco ordered. It took an hour but they finally found Sahqo holding and crying over his dead little sister. Coco saw the giant and looked to Velvet to see if she can talk to him. Velvet was the look and nodded, she is the most kind and Coco thought since she was a faunus it may be easier to talk to him. However she has never seen a Dragon Faunus before, Ozpin did say that there was a nomadic tribe in the forest. As Velvet got closer she saw 7 dead White Fang soldiers. The other faunus as sobbing over something.
Velvet accidentally step on a twig and startled the Dragon Faunus. He got up, grabbed his sword and turn and faced Velvet. Velvet saw the girl in his arms, blood all over the Dragon Faunus' arms and the girl's chest. "Stay back!" he yelled at her "Come any closer and I'll run you through, all of you!"
Velvet put her hands up to show no hostility, "Calm down, I'm a huntriss from Beacon Academy. This is my team, my name is Velvet Scarlatina. What's your name?" Velvet asked calmly and evenly.
"Sahqo Sosdovah, just recently new Keeper of the now extinct tribe of Sosdovah, and the last known living Dragon Faunus." Sahqo stated and put down his sword.
Coco stepped in, "I heard of you Ozpin told me to pick you up tomorrow, after we cleared the place of Grimm. I'm Coco, and these two are Fox and Yatsuqhashi, Yatsu's the big one." Coco introduced.
"I hate to ask but who's the girl?" Velvet asked.
Sahqo looked down and the cold body of his little sister. "My little Sister, Silon."
"I'm sorry for your loss" Velvet apologizes.
"Yeah... thank you..." Sahqo matured and started walking back to camp.
"where are you going?" Coco asked.
"As my job as Keeper I most burn the dead as is custom. If you like to help me find all the bodies, we can leave sooner."
"Can you tell us what happened?" Asked Coco.
"Can it be on the way back to Beacon? I need time to mourn." Coco nodded in agreement. She looked to her team and waved them to follow her and Sahqo. It took hours to find all 99 bodies and even longer to set the large burn pile line. When they where done night had fallen and Sahqo still held Silon's body in his arms. He put Silon her spot next to Yuvon. Sahqo clapped his hands together and summed two bear seized aura dragons. They took to the skies, one went one end of the line the other at the opposite side. They came down and breathed fire on the pile at both ends at the same time and counted to do so in till it reached the middle they flew up and exploded in the air.
They pile was set ablaze, Sahqo looked into the fire, "do you want to leave now or camp for the night?" Sahqo asked Coco.
"Well our ride doesn't pick us up till tomorrow morning, so I get we'll camp for the night." She said ans walked way to give him space.
Sahqo pulled out the silver locket his father gave him, opening it in side was a family picture. Himself, his old brother, his little sister, and his mother and father. All except him are dead. He turned to the camp Coco' team made, five tents and a small fire pit. Sahqo went to his own tent, took his gear off and went to bed.

The next morning was quite. No one spoke a word. When. The bullhead arrived to pick them up Coco decided to brake the ice in the silent. "Well it about a 3 hour flight back to Beacon. Are you ready to tell us what happened?" Coco asked to Sahqo.
Sahqo just looked at her, then at his locket. "It all started when a White Fang messenger came into came, my father, Yuvon, was the Keeper before he passed it down to me," and that Sahqo told team CFVY what happened and how he survived. It took him an hour to explain what happened. Team CFVY eventually told Sahqo about themselves, like how they're about to being their second year at Beacon.
"So what's your semblance, Sahqo?" Velvet wondered.
"You've already seen it, it called Dragon's Aspect. I am able to summon aura dragons in any size, however the bigger the fewer, and all have a random chance of blowing up," Sahqo answered her.
"Attention passengers we well be at Beacon Academy in 15, thank you" came from the pilot.
"Well I hope you like it here at Beacon, it is going to be your home from the next four years" Coco chuckled.
Sahqo smirked, "I hope so too."
