At the same time Yang and Blake were also in the forest. The rest of the day they had free time so they wanted to train a little bit. They fought against each other with full power until I run between them in the middle of their attacks blocking both of them only with my hands. I jumped back and took a defensive pose. Both looked a little bit surprised about their new guest. Yang was on her way to me. My heart was racing. Please heart, hang on a little more. I felt dizzy. Note to myself: Don't use my semblance in such a condition. It is really a bad idea. My whole body started to hurt really badly. I had problems to keep my eyes open. Why is this happening now? I fought with all my willpower against the loss of my consciousness. Suddenly I heard someone shouting
"Yaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnng?" It was a voice from a young girl.
"Ruby? I'm here!" shouted Yang back. Ruby?! Not a second later a girl with a red cloak appeared in front of me.
"Professor Ozpin wants to talk to us." She looked at me with her silver eyes. "YAY! You're awake!" She is it. I couldn't take it anymore. Slowly I fall to the ground. Yang saw this and jumped in front of me and caught me in time.
"Or not" Yang said.
Meanwhile in the room of Professor Ozpin. He looked on his scroll and saw the scenario from the forest. "She has silver eyes." He put away his scroll and looked on a photo on his desk. This photo is one from his school years at Beacon. You can see him in his younger years and a girl with silver eyes and a white cloak. Suddenly she knocked on the door. "Yes please?" A woman entered the room. "Hello Glynda. What can I do for you?"
"Team RWBY had found the girl. They took her back to the infirmary. She is sleeping right now."
"Okay. Please call me when she is awake." Glynda nodded and left the room. Ozpin looked back on the photo. Maybe her lost daughter? he thought.
The next day
Ruby and Yang were on their way to the infirmary. They wanted to look after the girl. Ruby really wanted to know who the girl is. She hadn't seen anyone with eyes like her. They arrived at the infirmary and went to the bed in which the girl laid. Ruby stood in front of her.
"I hope she wakes up soon" she said sadly. Yang put her hand on the forehead of the girl.
"Luckily her fever has gone down. It's only a matter of time until she wakes up."
I felt a hand on my forehead. "Luckily her fever has gone down. It's only a matter of time until she wakes up." I opened my eyes and saw Yang. Yang looked in my eyes and put her hand away. I looked around and saw Ruby standing next to Yang.
"Yay you're awake!" She had a big smile on her face and her silver eyes glowed. I tried to rise up.
"You should rest a little more. You had a fever during the night." said Yang and pushed me gently back to the bed.
"Where am I?" I asked and Yang answered
"You're at our school Beacon. We found you yesterday in the forest." Suddenly Ruby jumped between us.
"Hello! I'm Ruby Rose and this is my sister Yang Xiao Long." she said and pointed to Yang "So what's your name?" It's really her. I have found her. I have found my ... wait a moment sister?!
"M ... my name is Zera"
"Hello Zera! I'm Ruby"
"You already said that Rubes."
"I know Yang. What's your last name?"
I can't tell her right now. Maybe it's better she never knew this.
"I ... I don't remember" In this moment the door opened and Professor Ozpin entered the room.
"Miss Rose, Miss Xiao Long can I have some privacy with her." Ruby and Yang nodded.
"See you later Zera." They said in unison and left the room. Professor Ozpin waited until both had gone and went to me. He looked in my eyes.
"You have silver eyes"
"Um yes?" I was confused. Who is this guy?
"Do you know who I am?" he asked.
"Nope. I have not the slightest idea." I said.
"I'm Professor Ozpin the headmaster of this school and you are Miss?"
"Zera I don't remember my last name." What kind of school is this?
"This school is designed to train huntsmen and huntresses." I looked confused. Can he read my mind? "What do you remember? Only your name?"
"The only thing I knew is that I was captured a long time ago. I don't really know how I got in this school."
"One of our teams had a mission in the forest where you had collapsed. They found you and brought you here. I saw your fighting style yesterday. Where do you learned this?" He showed a video of the scenario yesterday.
"Um taught to myself?"
"Do you want to go to my school?"
"To become a huntress?"
"Yes that is what we train here" Hmm becoming a huntress? Being with Ruby? Why not? My mom was a great huntress
"I don't really know where to go so yes" He nodded.
"First of all you should rest a little more. When you're able to leave the infirmary you can live with team RWBY and train with them. When you are ready you must pass a qualifying examination. I would say in one month you do this and when you passed this test you're a pupil of this school. Now rest and get better soon and Miss Rose? I know you heard me. Please take care of her." The door opened and Ruby came embarrassed in.
"Okay."
"Ah yes. Before I forget this. This is for you." Ozpin put something on my head and left the room. After he left I took it from my head and looked on it. Impossible. It was a blue cap with a blue rose on it. The symbol of the Rose-Family. I looked confused to the door. Does he know who I truly am?
I remembered the time where I lived peacefully with my mom and my little sister. Nearly every day I played with my sister hide and seek. One day a man with gray hair and thin brown eyes came to visit us. He was an old friend of my mom. At this time my sister and I were playing outside until our mom called us.
"I want to introduce you to Ozpin. I went with him to the same school so he is a huntsman." explained our mom to us after we arrived.
"Really?" we said in unison with shining eyes. Ozpin looked in our eyes.
"They have the same eyes like you, Summer. By the way I'm going back to Beacon."
"Becoming a Professor?"
"Not quite a Professor. I was asked to become the headmaster of it"
"And naturally you said yes"
"You know me I always wanted to teach the children so yes I did."
"Congratulation." Summer said with a smile. I didn't understand the whole thing at that time. I was 5 or 6 years old.
"I have something for your kids. They should be a little big right now but when they have grown up they could wear it." He had a red cloak and a blue cap in his hands. He went to my little sister and gave her the red cloak. "This is for you."
"Mom! Look!" She turned and fell to the ground.
"Watch out honey." She helped her to stand up "It looks awesome on you" The red cloak had the symbol of our family in red on the back.
"Thank you Ozpin" my sister said with a big smile.
"You're welcome." Ozpin said and turned to me. "And this is for you" The blue cap had also the symbol of our family on it only in blue. He put the cap on my head and not a second later I couldn't see anything. They laughed. I took it from my head.
"Thank you uncle Ozpin" He was surprised because of the uncle.
"You're welcome, Zera."
"So I let you rest now. Tomorrow I'll introduce you my team." Ruby said with a big smile
"Okay"
"See you tomorrow." She ran out of the room. I closed my eyes and tried to sleep.
Yeah, I know
I have done it:
Her name is Zera and honestly I didn't want to reveal her connection to Ruby in the second chapter. But that's how it is.
I'm not quite sure what the next chapter will be about. I thought about Zeras' past
or maybe the meeting of team RWBY and Zera: the official introducing chapter or something like that
You will see it the next time in the forgotten child!
