There's a day when all hearts will be broken
When a shadow will cast out the light
And our eyes cry a million tears
Help wont arrive

At the campsite outside of Mistral, were several men wearing white masks, the White Fang. The reason they wore these masks, were to intimidate others, even though it doesn't seem to work at all. Inside the leader's tent, sat a girl that was wearing a grey combat tunic, and had long black hair, and carmine colored eyes. This girl was waiting patiently for the leader, known to the members as Adam Taurus, to return from his mission with his partner, where they had to sabotage a train of the Schnee Dust Company, a dust distribution company that monopolized with racial bigots.

There's a day when all courage collapses
And our friends turn and leave us behind
Creatures of darkness will triumph
The sun won't rise

Eventually, Adam walked into the tent. However, his partner was not in sight. Adam took on a stance once he saw the girl sitting calmly in the tent.

"Who are you?",he asked,"Another intruder?"

"Call me Cheshire.",replied Cheshire,"I am here to talk to your partner, Blake."

"Hmm.",said Adam,"Blake has abandoned the White Fang, I have no clue where she is."

"That is unfortunate.",replied Cheshire,"I'll be seeing her very soon."

"What do you mean?",asked Adam

"Missing kittens never stay missing for long.",replied Cheshire, ominously, before activating her semblance, a power that is unique to each individual person, and promptly vanished, leaving Adam to look down in deep thought.

When we've lost all hope
And succumb to fear
As the skies rain blood
And the end draws near

Undetectable, Cheshire sprinted through the forest blocking her way to Vale. Soon, she came across a herd consisting of 20 Ursa Grimm. Grimm were dark, cruel, animalistic beings that only strived to kill humans and faunus, having no other purpose than to kill and maim. They are generally attracted to negative emotions.

I may fall
But not like this – it won't be by your hand
I may fall
Not this place, not today
I may fall
Bring it all – it's not enough to take me down
I may fall

Cheshire deactivated her semblance, and upon sensing her, the Ursa growled at her, before slowly moving towards her to attack her. Cheshire took out what appeared to be a black katana, and vanished. Appearing half a second later behind the Ursa in the back of the Grimm Herd. Using her black katana, Cheshire sliced the Ursa she was behind, causing the Ursa to collapse and disintegrate into black smoke, while the rest turned around in surprise.

There's a place where we'll stand outnumbered
Where the wolves and the soulless will rise
In the time of our final moments
Every dream dies

Cheshire vanished again, to the Grimms' frustration. They roared and turned this way and that. However, they could not find her anywhere, much to their confusion. Cheshire dropped down from a tree and took out two of the Ursa simultaneously. The constant evading and sneak attacks enraged the Grimm. The ones close by Cheshire roared and swiped at her with their claws. Cheshire dodged their attacks and slashed at them with her black katana, cutting the herd down to 8.

There's a place where our shields will lay shattered
And the fear's all that's left in our hearts
Strength and our courage have run out
We fall apart

Just as an Ursa was about to gnash at her with it's teeth, Cheshire vanished again. The Grimm were rambunctious, they could not find - wait, it was barely noticeable before, but the girl is carrying a perpetual emotion, Sehnsucht. Now that the Grimm could sense her, they waited while tracking her movements. She appeared to be - right below them?!

When we lose our faith
And forsake our friends
When the moon is gone
And we reach our end

The herd looked down, just as the ground burst open. The Ursa were all thrown into the trees, getting damaged. The remaining Grimm were slaughtered mercilessly by Cheshire over the next few seconds. After all the Grimm were vanquished, she sheaved her black katana and began traveling towards Vale again.

There's a moment that changes a life when
We do something that no one else can
And the path that we've taken will lead us
One final stand

Later that evening, Cheshire was walking down the sidewalk in Vale. As she walked, she walked past an orange-haired man in a white suit, walking the opposite direction.

There's a moment we make a decision
Not to cower and crash to the ground
The moment we face our worst demons
Our courage found

After finally arriving at her destination, Cheshire walk into an elevator and pushed up. The elevator began to ascend. Cheshire thought back and found that there were currently no hindrances in her Mistress' plan.

When we stand with friends
And we won't retreat
As we stare down death
Then the taste is sweet

"So, what do I owe this pleasure, miss-?",asked a white-haired man, holding a coffee cup.

"Call me Cheshire, Mr. Ozpin.",replied Cheshire,"I wish to enroll here at Beacon."

"Hmm.",said Ozpin, thinking.

I may fall
But not like this – it won't be by your hand
I may fall
Not this place, not today
I may fall
Bring it all – it's not enough to take me down
I may fall
