For those of you who know the original story for this, I just want to say, taht I didnt like where it was going, and I decided to remake it as a clean slate. If you have seen the original, and find this, Im sorry for deleting it, but that was the best idea for me at the moment, as my computer is being screwy and is only letting me edit chapters that have already been made. With that In mind, I promise that this variant of 'Scotch on the rocks' will be better, with a slower plot buildi up, and more details, such as names for the weapons that the characters have, as well as the fact that I am completely remaking a good portion of the characters, like I the main character is not name Rick anymore. As for the team, I will only give you a hint that their last names are themed after drinks, due to the idea of keeping not only the original name for this story, and the original name when it came to the characters. The rest of things involving the characters will be revealed as I go. Also if anyone gets the little joke involving the main characters name, Ill give you a shout out, as well as a chance to decide something in the story Via PM, so happy guessing!

This is a remake of the original story.

Sometimes life is a completely unfair. For example, when I was a small kid, you know around 3 or 4, My uncle and aunt died. Apparently I didn't even remember a thing except for the fact that they were completely frozen. Thats also when I found out that life was cruel. The main reason for that being the fact that later in my life when I wanted to become a huntsmen, I found out that my semblance was controlling ice to a degree. Due to my semblance I was considered 'Different' as my hair was an unnatural grey color, with my eyes being a normal brown. Due to that I was considered a social outcast, and I began to be homeschooled. It didn't help that people thought I was a faunus of some sort due to it. I have nothing against faunus, but the fact that I was being mistaken for something I was not, pissed me off slightly.

My normal attire, however, was something people would consider different. I wore a red bandana, that was tied at the back, while I wore a grey cap over it. On the left side of the hat were to metal pins that sat there just for decoration. The cap was a present from my uncle for my 14th birthday. As for the rest of my clothes, I wore a grey and black cloth bracelet, that wasn't actually cloth, along with two metal brackets that surrounded the other one on both arms. With a single tense of my wrist, they would turn into Greaves that were my first of my two weapons, Nagekibato (morning dove).

Next on the list, was a black high collar shirt, that I wore with a couple of the buttons open, and the sleeves rolled up. On my chest was a thick chain, that held a pendent of a dove and a raven circling each other in a Yin, Yang type way. To top it off, I wore a pair of grey jeans that were tilted slightly, a black belt sideways as well. Finally where the pair of black boots that were reinforced with metal, as they were my second weapon, kōtō karasu (Soaring Raven). To top off the 'badass look' I apparently had (My sisters opinion not mine) I had three claw mark scars on the left side my face that almost looked like whiskers.

Now as for my weapons. Nagekibato, and Kōtō Karasu, were two weapons that I created myself back when I was still in a public school for hunters. Nagekibato was a pair of black greaves on my arms, with a white bird on the main part of my forearm. It had grey vine patterns crawling all over it as well, but that wasn't as important. The important part was that it had a gun part that fired .9mm sub machine gun at a ridiculous rate of 1,300 rounds per second. As for Skōtō karasu... They were a pair of grey boots with a black bird on it that had a firing mechanism in them for a sniper round. The round measured up to a .45 ACP sniper round that was the best I could do, considering the materials I needed to upgrade were only sold to students of beacon after almost a year, or real hunters.

Getting back on track, let me just tell you this. Nothing, and I do mean nothing, involved with me and a fight is my fault. Murphy's law just loves to screw me over. Which is probably why I was currently in the middle of a bar fight between a bunch of henchmen in black suits, and a blonde with shotgun gauntlets on her arms. I watched with an odd fascination, as she beat up the guys in the suits, that is until I got attacked as well. With a sigh, I simply backed up, making the guy lose his footing, to where I simply breech kicked him in the head by extended my foot outwards. The result, was the guy flying backwards, and straight towards the blonde. She saw this, and she punched him into the ground, before she tried to attack me. Grabbing her wrist I stopped her.

"I'm not your enemy blondie.I just wanted to have a nice peaceful night for once... This is too troublesome." I groaned out with an irritated tone.

She didn't answer me, to which I realized she was looking behind me. With an irritated sigh, I quickly spun on my heel, to which I was rewarded with a loud thump a satisfied nod, I knew I had kicked the guy in the face with a roundhouse. Putting my hands in my pockets, I raised an eyebrow at the blonde beside me, to which she just gave me a grin and said "You're pretty good. You training to be a hunter?"

I gave a nod towards her while I pointed to my two weapons. She gave them a curious glance, while I said "Martial arts are pretty effective on Grimm. Course, you're pretty good with boxing, but I think you need to learn an actual style, random won't always work. I'd rather you live to fight another day."

The blonde have a me a confused look, to where I just shook my head. She would understand when it came down to it. She was trying to be a huntress after all. Course, my attention soon was gained by a guy who looked to be the 'boss', as he was the only one not in a complete suit. That, and the fact he was carrying a bazooka on his shoulder. With a raised eyebrow towards the blonde I asked "Lady's first?"

I expected her to punch me or something, but instead, she just grinned and said "What a gentlemen you are. I have a bone to pick with this guy anyway."

With a nod and a 'I surrender' motion with my hands, I let the blonde go at him as much as she wanted. Course it didn't help the fact that, when Blondie dodged the rockets the guy in the suit turned the rocket launcher into a bat, or club, depending on how you saw it. The first thing the guy did was jump at the girl, to which she blocked the overhead strike and the side strike both. The third side strike, on the other hand, managed to hit, causing the blonde to stumble a bit, to which the guy capitalized with, and sent her flying with an uppercut with the bat. The hit sent the blonde flying backwards, and through a glass table and furniture that was in the room. I was about to help, when she got up once again, and this time, her hair was on freaking fire!

Staring in surprised, as she pounded her fists together, causing a mini shockwave, I saw her run forward, dodging some of the guys rocket rounds once again, and this time she ducked under both swings that the guy sent at her, to which I heard an almost unhearable click of a shotgun chamber, to which she punched the guy in the chest four to five times, before she went into a firm stance, and punched him in the face. I was behind her at this point, so I didn't notice anything, other than her flaming hair. That was also when I noticed that the guys bat was broken, and he had something golden in his hand.

"Well. He's finished." I muttered out as the blonde sent out a pissed off yell, and punched him in the face, sending him flying out of the building.

The blonde girl eventually jumped out, while I made a note to myself not to piss her off, and under no circumstances was I to touch her hair. Following her outside, I noticed a little girl with black hair, red hair, and silver eyes. With a raised eyebrow at the scythe that the girl suddenly pointed at me, i made sure to hold my hands up in a surrender like fashion. Noticing that she had a black dress on, that was outlined with red, as well as a red hood, I looked towards the blonde and asked "Can you call little red riding hood off? I'm not your enemy you know."

The blonde gave an almost evil smirk as she said "I dunno... I don't know who you are, even if you did help me, you could be out to kill me or something."

With a deadpan look I said "Fine. My name is Kōri Scotch, age 17, homeschooled huntsmen. Before you even ask, my name is not a girls name, ok? It's a joke, now can you call her off now?"

The blonde laughed, and I didn't know if it was at my name, or the fact that I was slightly scared of a little girl who had a scythe. In my opinion, me being scared was completely justified, considering I was staring at the little red reaper. She eventually did call of the little red wearing girl, though I was still weary of her. I mean, that scythe looked extremely sharp, and I didn't want to be on the receiving end of a slash from her. With the blonde still laughing, I held my hand out to the little red wearing girl as an Introduction, but the blonde got to it first, as she said "I'm Yang Xiao, long. Nice to meet you Kōri, though I'm surprised that you have such a name. Oh, and this is my sister Ruby."

I nodded my greeting to them after that as I said "I have to say, I'm surprised that someone like you was as monstrously strong as you are. I understand that you're training to be a huntress, but you're strength is kinda ridiculous."

Instead of punching me, the blond just shrugs as she said "You wouldn't be the first one. I'm just glad that someone doesn't think I'm weak just because i'm a girl."

With a confused look at that, I began to question why she said that, but then I just stopped myself before I did something stupid. My sister always told me that I needed to watch what I say, but I did say "I don't know why I would. My mom kicks my ass almost every single day I train with her. Then again, both my parents are ex-military..."

With a small sigh, we talked a bit more, and I found out that the two girls had a dog named Zwei, as well as some more interesting things about how their dad manages to mailings in a small package, and the fact that it actually worked as well, just proved that the two girls' dad was extremely weird. That along with the fact that, apparently Ruby was hoping to get into beacon earlier. I eventually told the two that I was going to beacon, to which was also around the time that it was time for me to go back to my house. I said bye to them, while also exchanging numbers in case they wanted to talk to me, before I went back down the street, only for a couple of gang members to appear, right before the girls could do anything I walked forward with my hands in my pockets, discreetly telling them I wanted to do this.

"So, you've decided to come here again freak? I'm gonna pay you back for the fingers I lost!" One of the gang members yelled at me, to which I ignored him in favor of yawning, due to my tiredness.

"I wasn't the dumbass who attacked first, now was I?" I asked him in a tone that showed it was a rhetorical question.

{Play character theme #1: Snowblind-Au5}

The leader, one of the idiots who didn't think before attacking, charged at me with a pissed off expression at that. With my hands still in my pants pockets, I bent backwards, completely dodging the attack, to where I just tripped him. He got up quickly, and yelled about I should stop underestimating him. In response, I dodged and kneed him in the stomach, causing him to gasp due to the loss of air. With a small sigh, I took my hands out of my pockets, only so I could balance myself. The reason I needed to balance myself was because I spun on one of my heels and hit him in the back of the head, sending him flying forwards, and effectively knocking him out. With the bored look still on my face, I bent forwards and motioned towards me with my hands, while I said "Come on. You can do better than that cant ya?"

A smirk quickly formed on my face instead, as I started to make a mist appear in the area as the idiots ran towards me. With a whisper I said "Out of sight, out of mind." While, I completely disappeared from the first guys view, the others following shortly after. Running forward with no problem through the mist I made, I rounded up all of the group, to where I slowly knocked them out one by one. When the mist finally let up, half of them were knocked out on the ground, with the other half shivering due to the cold air in the mist, some frost appearing on limbs. With a smirk on my face growing, I bent backwards to dodge one of the punches, to where I did a handstand on one hand only, to where I spun, knocking out a bunch more of them. Once that was finished I noticed that there was only one person left. Bending over him, as he cowed down, I said "Boo."

{Character theme end.}

That single word was enough to cause the guys eyes to roll into his head, and he fell backwards unconscious. I snickered at that, to where I looked back at the two girls, both who looked slack jawed. I just gave a light laugh at their expressions, though when I walked up to them, Yang was the first to ask "What did you do?"

With a smile I said "I didn't use my weapons, though what I did, was a mix of different things, why? Did you think I couldn't beat them?"

Shaking her head quickly, she said "No, thats not what I meant, its just that you're fighting style is extremely weird."

I understood what she was saying now. My fighting style was a mix between a couple of things. The first being that I would incorporate breakdancing into it, as it promotes flexibility, which helps with getting out of awkward situations, as well as being able to keep myself from getting hit. That added with the fact that I used the breakdancing to help with my arm strength, just showed that it helped with the fighting style. Than you add in the boxing that I put into for my bracers, that held a symbol for a bird on it, along with some vince work, with the strong stance a boxer usually had and I was a force to be reckoned with. Then again, you think about the metal boots that I had in, adding to the already forceful kicks I had, and I could take out most people in a one on one fight with little to no trouble, so long as I don't do anything stupid, and I get better with my whole fighting style. If I got proficient enough with the fighting style that I have, than I really could stop something like a nevermore without any help. That would be a ways away though, so I didn't get my hopes up.

Eventually I had to leave, but I did tell them that I would try to find them in vale at some point in the near future. Yang, and Ruby gave a nod towards that, before I walked towards home, this time with a rocket propelled skateboard that my sister had made for me last christmas. Essentially it was the closest thing I was going to get to an actual vehicle. I didn't really care though. I loved to skateboard, and it was very effective with getting from one place to another with little to no problems.

Slowing down eventually I flipped the skateboard into my hand, before I walked up to the door and opened it with my key to the house. I sighed in weariness before I quickly hit the deck, thankfully it was just in time, as a blur flew over me and out of the door. Standing back up I gave a tired sigh towards the one that flew at me as I said "You know, Jessica, if you keep doing that I will retaliate, right?"

Jessica, my sister, who had her hair dyed with streaks of green, while her actual hair color was a darker brown color. She did this a lot, to the point that it was predictable, but then again, this was also her way of showing her sisterly love towards me. I was usually a nice individual, but she always seemed to make me angry easily, but not in any bad way, just an annoyed way that siblings usually feel when they have their sibling to worry about. With that said and done, Jessica looked up towards me with a tricksters smirk as she said "Nah. You know I just do this to try and keep you on your toes. I actually want you to be a good huntsmen you know."

I rolled my eyes at my sister who was a year older than me. Placing my skateboard at the entrance to our house, I helped my sister up, and I also told her that I understood but she needed to stop or else she might get hurt by me by accident. She just gave a playful laugh, that sounded like a Jokers, as she just waved me off with a small smile. With a shake of my head, I noticed the lack of anyone else in the house. WIth a sigh, I asked "Did Mom, and Dad get called again? I swear after Those schnee's got him out of his command position, lots of other company's wanted his help."

Jess just shrugged at her, as we both knew what I meant. Our father was ex-military like I said before, but he was actually a general alongside James Ironwood, who was the head of a school in Atlas, as well as a general. Both of them were friends, but Our father had ended up deciding that it would be better if just he left, instead of both of them. Ironwood had thought it was his fault, and he often sent presents to our family due to it, but both of our parents had repeatedly told him that he didn't need to, yet he did anyway, which in the end, showed that he was really a respectable man to our family. Well that, and the fact that he was our godfather.

With another sigh I walked into the kitchen, as I wasn't going to let Jessica even touch anything in the kitchen. If she tried to cook something, she would end up poisoning me. It didn't help that even if she did cook something edible, it was either way too spicy, or it just tasted nasty to begin with. Everyone, even jessica herself, has joked that she could kill a grimm with her cooking. I was the best cook in the house, aside from my mother of course, but I wasn't going to say such, as it was commonly known, that I was being taught cooking by her. Course I knew that my lessons would end the second I could get into beacon, but that didn't bother me so much. My mom had told me that a good cook would learn their own recipes anyway, so whoever I had on my team would definitely be happy with me, as if we ever needed to cook our own foods, than I could cook.

By the time it was finished, Jessica had went up to her room to do something else, not that I really cared. What I cared about was the fact that whenever she goes into her room, there is usually a lot of music that could be heard throughout the house.

"And I will be like the sun that will keep you safe and warm~"

Like that. She was currently in her room, and she was playing 'Gold' at the moment. Its not that it wasn't a good song or anything, but it was the fact that she used her speakers so that everyone could hear the song. With a sigh, I sent a cold wind up the stairs, as using my semblance for trivial things like that didn't do much to me, and its not like I would get in trouble for using it outside of fighting. Besides doing little things like that did wonders for my control. My semblance was extremely chaotic and hard to control, but doing little things like making a cold wind was enough to help with controlling it. I guess I was just glad that I had a way to train in unlike some other's.

Thankfully jessica got the breeze so I didn't have to worry about having to go upstairs to get her, as that would be killer on my ears. The promptly ended at this point, and I was doing my best to prepare myself for when it was time for me to go to beacon in a couple of weeks. I was actually going to be going to school with people I knew for once. That was definitely going to be a different thing for me. With one last sigh I tried to fall asleep not even caring about the fact that I would get an almost sleepless night once again. Insomnia sucks.

So what did you guys think of this chapter? and to make sure you understood, for those of who who understood what I was talking about, The joke with Kōri's is Stated to show where it is, but if you get the joke, thats when you will be rewarded with what I promised. As for the rest of the things in this chapter, make what you will of it, however I would love it if you were to reveiw to this story, as Feedback is always imprtant, even if it is bad feedback.

He has two metal boots, that have gun barrels near the heel, to where he can use the large 0.45 ACP sniper round that it fires for maneuvering, as well as allowing him, with the flexibility due to his style, to use his leg as a sniper rifle.

Notes: Rick, when he was little, lost his aunt and uncle due to them being frozen solid. He ended up blaming himself shortly after he gained his semblance, due to the fact that he can freeze anything within a certain range due to his semblance. In the end his parents knocked that notion out of him as they told him it wasn't his fault and that it was an accident. In the end, rick resolved himself to be a hunter so that he could prevent innocents from dying due to either grimm or other people. His main reason for being a hunter was so that the innocent wouldn't have to suffer, and also as a way to get stronger so that he could inevidently protect those precious to him. With his reason being resolved, his father pushed him even farther than normal to train so that he could be an extremely efficient huntsmen, though his fighting style was not something his parents taught, and was in fact something that he came up by himself.
