It was early in the morning when a knock was heard at the house of the Xiao Long's. At first nobody moved to answer it so the knock repeated itself only louder. It was then that Taiyang woke, annoyed for being woken up two hours after putting Yang to sleep, he called out from behind the door.

"FOR THE LAST TIME QROW, YOU CAN TELL THAT BASTARD THAT I WON'T ABANDON MY..."

He opened the door and was stopped cold by the tears staining Summer Rose's face. The first thought that jumped into his mind Qrow had hurt her. He looked her up and down while she rubbed the tears out of her face.

"Sorry for waking you up this early Tai, but I don't have anyone else that I can trust. Can I come inside please it's going to start raining soon."

He stepped aside allowing her to come inside and as soon as she stepped inside the sound of thunder could be heard in the distance.

"Thank you, Tai."

"Can I get you anything?"

"Do you have any Black Root Tea?"

He smiled as he should have known that Summer would ask for it. How she could drink that was beyond him. He remembers while the two of them were at Beacon he tried it once. At first it was as bitter as black coffee and then the aftertaste hit. To this day he wondered how something could be that hot and sweet at the same time. Summer and Qrow laughed uncontrollably when he ran to the bathroom in attempt to wash away the vile liquid that turned his mouth into an inferno.

"Sorry but I don't."

"Shame, then milk will do."

Tai went to the kitchen and got her a glass of milk. Anyone else would have found it funny that 'The Grimm Witch' was this soft spoken caring young woman. He would have laughed at her to if it wasn't for the day they first met.

13 years ago in the Emerald forest

Tai had just landed and began looking for a partner maybe the guy with the red eyes or his hot sister. He just didn't want the white cloaked guy that Ozpin greeted personally and embraced like family. He probably was a stuck up kid who believed he was better than everyone.

Unfortunately, Tai hadn't been paying attention and fell down a steep hill. He finally stopped rolling a good 200 feet from where he slipped. A groan escaped his lips as he tried to push his aching body up that is when he saw a young drake Grimm.

'Oh this is so not good'

They had began to stir after he came crashing down there. He hopped up and activated his Lion's Fists. The MMA type gloves with steel spikes on the knuckles sprang to life covering his hands and forearms as he took his fighting stance.

"Mind if I join you?"

The masculine voice sounded out somewhere above him the man with the red eyes with appeared. Tai gave the man a smug smile.

"Only if you can keep up."

That is when the groan of the trees sounded around them. Both men looked at the drake as they suddenly were alerted to something or someone. That is when a tree root pulled itself from the ground and lashed out at the Grimm. While the Grimm was distracted with the tree root. Two more trees came alive and used their branches to impale the drakes wings.

Both Tai and the other man watched in amazement as the drake freak out losing one of its wings. That is when it noticed Tai and was convinced that this was his doing. It started to charge him when the roots of the trees sprang up around Tai and created a barrier to protect him.

That is when the white cloaked hunter entered the battlefield wielding two weird looking axes. With the plant life aiding him and dividing the drake's attention it took less than a minute for the Grimm collapse on the ground dead. With the battle now over, the figure attached their axes to their waist and put his hands together said prayer.

"Hey Qrow what in the name of dust are you doing."

"Hey sis how is going?"

End Flashback

Tai set the glass down in front of Summer and took a seat next to her. She was staring at her hands with a worried look on her face. He had seen this look on her face before when the idiot Qrow had asked her to the dance. Her family trained her for one thing, to kill Grimm. It was all she knew and up until that day she brushed off all the compliments sent her way. It was a well known fact that she had a crush on Qrow, but she would never willing tell him because she was to scared and she felt her duty as a silver-eyed huntress wouldn't allow her to be in a relationship. Thankfully for her Raven pushed her at Qrow and told her to live a little. The blush that stained her face made everyone laugh. Seeing Summer 'The Grimm Witch' Rose look so completely out of her element as she tried and failed to dance.

"What's wrong Summer? Did Qrow do something?"

"No… yes… I don't know… why did this happen to me. What did I ever do to deserve this."

"Summer…"

Tai placed his hand over Summers in an attempt to comfort her, but she pulled her hand away. It was then tears began to fall on her face and then she said two words Tai hadn't expect her to say.

"I'm pregnant…"

"I know everyone thinks of me as a ladies man, but I am not that good."

"DAMNIT TAIYANG XIAO LONG, THIS IS SERIOUS!"

Tai found himself taken back by her inner turmoil. He could tell that she wasn't angry because her anger was cold and more frightening sight then his fiery anger could ever be. It was then the sounds of a crying baby could be heard.

Summer's face fell to shame as she realised she woke up Yang. That is when Tai got one of his better ideas, he went and collected Yang. Bringing her out and while Yang was crying, he handed her over to Summer. Summer shot back knocking her chair over, in an attempt to get away from the baby.

"What the hell Tai! What are you doing?"

"What's the matter, Summer? Is the Grimm Witch scared of of a baby?"

Summer's hate for her nickname flashed across her face and Taiyang almost stopped right there but he needed to do this for Summer. He had an idea of what was really wrong and he would be damned if Summer left her child the way Raven left theirs.

"There is no blood on your hands, Summer."

The look on her face was the one he had hoped for and again He handed a whimpering Yang over to Summer, who was still stunned, and almost immediately Yang stopped crying and went back to sleep.

"See you aren't that bad."

"How did you know that would happen?"

"I didn't, but I am glad it did. Look I know your child isn't mine, but I think you would make great mother and even though I don't like him Qrow would make a good father, not great, but good."

Summer's laughed was music to his ears even though he knew her heart would always belonged to Qrow just as his will always belonged to Raven, but he did love Summer.

"Well I guess I will have to tell him, won't I little Yang."
