Chapter 1
My parents taught me honesty, truth, compassion,
kindness and how to care for people.
Also, they encouraged me to take risks, to boldly go.
They taught me that the greatest danger in life
is not taking the adventure.
Dear Journal, it has been Ten Years since my step father has gained custody of me, and my faithful companion Desmond, who has grown up into a full grimm, but he has chosen over his instincts thankfully, and has turned into my full companion, as shown by his now fully shown face, as he has no mask now, and has turned into a shade of grey and red, the color of my aura. Supposedly a "captured" Grimm can take on a master and will eventually turn into the owners darkest shade of their aura color, as mine was red, I am not surprised. I'm glad that I got to keep Des, he has provided help through my loneliness when Dad isn't around, thankfully he also doesn't really have to eat much, as I do have to hunt food for him every week. I am also estimating his doesn't really go to the bathroom as we haven't had any accidents as I have ever seen, but I do see my window open in my room a lot, when he goes for a stroll on the rooftop of our section of Beacon, since I have helped create it as well.
My first official year starts though thankfully, even though I have the knowledge of a full-fledged hunter, I may not be as skillful, as father - erm.. Ozpin says. I don't know why he likes to just be called Ozpin, he doesn't mind Dad, but when I call him father, its like he immediately thinks of something else, its strange. Anyhow, I can't wait to fight another Ursa Major. Last time I fought some Grimm, Desmond had to help me because I was outnumbered Fifty to One, also learned something that day, Apparently Grimm Companions gain your powers, he freggin breathed fire and tanked more blows than the airship I saw on Television, with the Red Hooded girl, and Aunty Glynda. Wonder what happened to make Aunty go that night to help, other than that weird man, had a cool cane though, I would love to handle that sucker one day.
I do love my current equipment though, and with my semblance, it apparently can make me as fast as the sunlight, according to Dad. Actually, since you might be reading this Dad, I got some custom made weapons from all those trips to Vale, other than that practice longsword you gave me, I have one of the One handed Twinblades that I was talking about all those years, It even has barrels in it to make it a Shotgun! according to the weapon smith I made it from, It was Burnie by the way, he told me to say Hi when I came out with the secret, he also made it into a custom axe if I transform it, apparently it also makes it as Accurate as a sniper rifle, don't know how it works, but it does! haha! ...I wish Burnie didn't pass away last year.. Stupid White Fang, and their violence. I wish they could just… No, I wish Everyone could just get along, no Racism, no nothing, just peace other than the un-pure Grimm, unlike Desmond here, I'm glad that we found that spell for Aunty Glynda to put on him Dad, it made me one of the happiest boys alive back then, even if though if he dies, I have a chance to. I don't think I would let him follow me into battle that often though, he would probably hate me for it, but what can I do? He literally has a part of my life force in him, actually, that would explain why he has a Lot of my powers too. He literally is a oven when he sleeps at the end of the bed everything, I usually have to move to lay on the bed sideways just because he makes the head of the bed so hot, I am actually confused how he controls that still…
I am again glad though that I am becoming a actual student, even though I technically have all of my credits already, well, according to you Dad. Looks like all that training and education finally paid off, right? I mean, I already have a job delivering dust on my bike, gotta love risking your life everyday with your dog, well.. erm.. Companion. I don't even need to ask for money since Aunt Fiora helped with my armor, I'm glad she got married to Uncle Yvir, Well, I assume they aren't related. It would be really awkward if they were, they are 32 years old now.I wish I knew what I would do after I retire though from being a Huntsmen. 18 years old, and I only really have the healthiest time of my life during my 20's, according to the health classes and human organ system.
I also wish I could get some friends close to my age though, isn't really fun being alone in my tower all day. I mean, I do see people during my transports, but I don't really interact with them, you know? I wish I had some quality friends, that I could hang out with. I mean, I didn't build a Gaming center in my tower for nothing, freggin thing took me 2 years just to get everything right, especially setting up the corner for my Z-Box and Lii. It helps though that I hear more First years are coming this year! Last year, No one signed up because some rumor spread that something dangerous awakened here, it was related to some fire myth or whatever. Well, anyway! I found out that my aura can explode into a shield, Its so dang cool! I wish I knew about it before..
Ozpin stopped reading from his Kaleb's journal, knowing full well that he would be back from his midnight shift soon at his job, and he also had work himself, needing to double check the files from the new students coming. He also needed to sleep as well, as it was 3 in the morning. Ozpin soon sighed and put the journal down, thinking aloud to himself of some new things he has learned about.
Wow, Tonight was a rough night, not to mention with the increasing numbers of bandits trying to shoot at me tonight. I'm so glad I only have this on Mondays and Wednesdays, jeesh. I could barely keep up with job already, now someone supposedly called Cinder is after me? What the hell is going on with my life right now. Well, might as well take a nap before doing chores tomorrow, can't really get a good night's sleep with 3 hours. Oh hey, Dad looked at my journal again, and fed Desmond for me, sweet.
Kaleb immediately went to unlock his bedroom door, when a blur went from one side of the room to the next, tackling him down, licking his face until he forced the wolf off of him
"Yesss, I know you're a good boy, calm down man" Kaleb was just scratching behind the wolf's ear making its leg quiver in joy and pleasure, but he soon realized something was on his bedroom window.
Picking myself up, I walked over to the window to find it was a note from somebody, wait.., SOMEBODY? WHO HAS BEEN IN HIS ROOM? LET ALONE GET PAST DESMOND? I immediately read the note, as it said: "Meet me in Shopping District of Vale tomorrow, don't bring your pet, or your possible weapons, see you there, xoxo - C" Who in hell is C? and how in hell did she get in here? Wait.. Cinder? Hell, she doesn't even know who I am, just going after me, right? And why did C put xoxo? I hope that means threats instead of.. ahem.. Hugs and kisses. That would be awkward.
Kaleb just ponders off as he hears Desmond whine, wanting to go to bed after worrying all night about his buddy ol' pal and being exhausted from running around the track Ozpin and him made a few years back, since his companion always seemed to get loose.
"Come on boy, lets take our nap before you get to see me head off tomorrow."
Desmond barks in agreement as they both head to bed, ready for what tomorrow brings.
Roman was a busy man, especially after that close failure with the dust shop a few weeks, he has been getting less and less attention from his higher ups after the slip up with… Red, he doesn't know her name, but God Damn he hated her right now. She almost made him lose his job, just because a random ass girl with the combat knowledge of a huntress decides to pop up in his plans! What would have happened if Cinder wasn't there to help him? Would he have escaped or just die with the ship crashing into the pavement because a actual huntress caught attention from the bullets being shot. Now? he has to find a boy with superpowers apparently because his employer has been "interested" in him, what the hell does she plan on doing with this kid? Suck his Di-
"Roman" He immediately screamed in surprise and fear, not knowing she was there.
" You know I need you busy, not standing around pondering about how your day went. Get to work"
"Ya know Cinder, for being one of the most deadly people I know, how in hell can you be stealthier than a damn ghost" He said with a bit of negative oomph. He hated his boss honestly, but it payed good money, and it helped to have partners in crime.
"I have my sources, but I can't bother talking, I have to prepare for a meeting tomorrow, as I have infiltrated a part of Beacon and have a new contact, if he proves to be valuable, I will introduce him" Cinder said all while smiling, knowing full well that she gets to see Him tomorrow, she can't wait to talk to him, as she already picked out a gown for the evening, and is also quite giddy, she has to look the best for him anyway.
"Whatever, I'm off. " Roman immediately just strolls away, and as he is about to leave the room, he says one more thing. "Have fun with your crush tomorrow, make sure not to suffocate him from your version of CPR" Roman finishes, smirking while he does it, and closes the door. Leaving Cinder in the room, Alone.
Well, That was fun to write, I honestly love how the story is going so far, even though I feel as it might be a bit awkward at times. Anywho, Please Review and whatever your beautiful face feels like is needed! I am going to have a vote for pairs as well, even though I am aiming for Cinder x OC, because I feel as she needs Someone to love, and to be quite honest. She is drop dead gorgeous with a seductive attitude and tone, who doesn't want a piece of that ass.
PAIR VOTING OPTIONS
Ruby x OC
Cinder x OC
Yang x OC
Weiss x OC
Emerald x OC
OC x OC ( I may introduce a Female OC, not sure)
Cinder x OC, Again
Also, Sorry there is no Blake, I honestly feel as if she is an overused character to pair with if not the most overused, Yang at a close second, but come on. Almost every OC Story thats actually being worked on is Yang or Blake x OC I mean, there is a few that put good use to it, and are brilliant writes (Fanfictions for example: A Fools Dream Yang x OC, and Lost Memories, New Horizons Blake x OC, great stories, check them out) Anyways, my ranting is done, will continue writing now, Ciao guys!
