These are excerpt from the audio journal of one Doctor Aiden Franks.
"Day four hundred. I went to a psychiatrist today and he recommended that I start keeping a journal to release my unpleasant thoughts. Like that's gonna do any good. I mean I watched my entire team die! My partner Elisabeth, on her death bed, told me to take her eye so that I could lead the others through the dark and out of the Grimm ambush. Instead I watched them die before I could recover enough to do anything. (Quiet sobs over the recording) I can't..."
"Day six hundred and thirty. I've been looking through medical books recently. Maybe I can become a doctor. Elisabeth always said I would make a great doctor. She used to tell me that a great doctor in Haven is better than a thousand great huntsmen every where else. I don't know where she got that idea from but it just goes to show how much she loved this kingdom. My practice with my aura and semblance has come along quite nicely. Now I'm able to stop a sword with my blood hardening, and I can make my hand into a scalpel with my aura. It's nice because now I just have to worry about sterilizing my hands before my dissections. Though even with my frog and pig autopsies I still find my mind wandering to the thought, if this is a pig how much different do my insides look."
"Day nine hundred and forty four. I've been going to medical school classes for two semesters already and I've been going through the classes with ease. I aced eight classes last semester and now I'm taking the last five and interning at the hospital. The patients keep telling me that I'm a good doctor but my bed side manner sucks. They're probably right. I was part of a group mock surgery the other day. The girl acting as the head surgeon started to stitch the opening but the way she was doing it would have left a massive scar and not let it heal correctly. When I said something about it she angrily stabbed me with the clamps, but immediately apologized. I ignored her, and used my aura and the still sterile thread to close the opening on the patient. I then removed the clamp and began using the left over thread to stitch my wound shut. The look of shock and horror was very amusing."
"Day one thousand four hundred and sixty one. It is the forth anniversary of that night when my team was killed before my eyes. I still have yet to have a full nights sleep. I believe my sanity is slipping because of it. A young wolf Faunus approached me last night as I was walking home from my favorite bar, Mystral Nightlife. Me and the team used to go there when it was new but now there are only a few customers. So that wolf Faunus that I was talking about. He asked if I was Aiden Franks, and said that he needed someone of my talents for a job. He wouldn't tell me what it was about only that it was top secret and extremely important. I decided to shoot him the bird and go home."
"Day one thousand five hundred and eleven. My right eye, the transplanted one, has started to bother me. I'm not sure what the cause is, if it's because it's from an owl Faunus or because of a sloppy and rushed surgery. I'm running some tests and working with the leading transplant surgeon in the hospital to find the cause. The elixirs I've been making have helped but they only work to treat the symptoms not the cause. Though while working with said elixirs I have made many fascinating new discoveries. Did you know that you can increase a humans senses to beyond that of a Faunus with a few certain chemicals?"
"Day two thousand one hundred and ninety one. I've graduated from medical school in record time. I think that the teachers and students just wanted me out of here. I've been doing experiments on myself recently, and I've found ways of increasing my strength speed agility and durability but the experiments have left several noticeable scars. After the graduation, that wolf Faunus showed up again this time with two other people. This time though he actually told me what the mission was. Taking down the White Fang sounds cool and I may be able to find a gorilla Faunus adrenal gland for my new serum, adrenaline x. Cool name right? Of course I still need a few other ingredients that are not readily available in Haven, so this gives me the perfect opportunity to find the pieces and remake what it means to be human. I will leave in two days."
"Day zero. I got the first full nights rest I've had in six years last night. I'm not sure why but this feels like the start of my new life. I'm supposed to meet with the team at noon tomorro... Wait... I'm supposed to meet them in an hour? How did I sleep for two days straight! crap I don't even have my supplies ready. (Rummaging sounds and glass clanking) I need elixir pouch.. Ow! Stupid heater. Medical kit. Extra clothes. Crap my weapon is still in the pawn shop. I don't have the Lein to get it out. What am I gonna do! Oh well. Oh yeah the recorder. "
