A/N: I am back, and with a brand-new arc for the story. Oh, and I decided each arc will be 3 chapters long and will end with a total of 15 chapters. Anyway, this arc is important for Yin, her past will be revealed over the course of this arc as well as other things that help connects her past to another character. *Dodges as bullets and black balls of magic shoot by*

Yin: My past should stay hidden * grabs her sword and walks forward menacingly*

A/N: Now, now you really don't want to hurt me, right?

Yin: I am pretty sure I do want to hurt you, especially because you are revealing my past. Now stand still while I end you *eyes are glowing red*

A/N: *ducks down* Well I am running for my life…read, favorite, review etc.… Flames will be used to make a campfire

Ruby: *clears throat* Zero does not own RWBY that is owned by is the late Monty Oum. Zero DOES however own Yin despite her wanting to end his existence, and he also owns a Grimm plush that he made himself…the fact he can still type this despite the injuries from sowing a plush is quite amazing. This is an AU world next to nothing is cannon. References to cannon will be made.

A/N: remember if you want to know about Yin light you can go to Deviant art and look her up there by going to my profile Phantomwingmist

Arc Summary: I went changed what arc two was about several times while writing the outline for the arc. Finally, I just decided that this arc will focus on the back story of Yin, and Neo as well as a battle.

Chapter Summary: This chapter will have Yin talking a bit about her past, and how she ended up the way she is. This plays an important part for her character development.


Yin laid on the roof of beacon academy, her left arm stretched towards the sky, showing a gold bracelet on her wrist, a matching one on right wrist, the two bracelets having the purpose of helping her control her power. She lowered her arm and began staring out into the sky as snow fell lightly from the sky falling on her face. It was a beautiful scene, for it was winter and seemed to be peaceful a peaceful one. Grimm attacks were currently low and this gave Yin a lot of free time, which she used to contemplate how her life has changed. It was a weekend, a few weeks after she and Ruby became a couple, though only Neo, Penny, Ruby and herself knew but she suspected that Ozpin might know since he knew everything that happens in Beacon. She looked up as she heard footsteps, sitting up and turning her head, only to see Ozpin and Ruby walking over, both with a purpose and Ozpin carrying three mugs.

"Yin, there you are. When you said, you would be looking at the snow I didn't think you meant you would be on the roof of Beacon watching the snow fall" Ruby said with a smile as she sat down next to Yin. Ozpin stepped forward, scroll in hand and took a seat next to Yin, Handing a mug of tea to both girls.

"Ms. Light now that you have been here for quite a while I was hoping that you would be willing to share some of your history so I could put it with your file." Ozpin stated. He expected that Yin would stay silent and was pleasantly surprised when she nodded.

"I was the youngest of four siblings but was an unwanted child and so I was left in a forest. My earliest memory was when I was two years old, a long-retired hunter had found me in the woods and raised me as his own daughter, he told me that he had a real daughter who was kidnapped a few weeks before he found me. For five years, I lived a simple but perfect life and was a very happy child who loved to learn new things. The hunter raised me and taught me how to be a huntress, teaching me how to use a sword and high impact low recoil gun. One day while he was teaching me how to use dust the two of us were attacked by a pack of Grimm, the man I saw as a father was brutally killed by the grimm and they were about to go after me so I ran off, grabbing whatever I felt was valuable or important and went to the closest place which I believe was a small village a couple miles away from Atlas I believe. I had a few things that could be sold for money, mainly useless trinkets. I also had his weapons a sharp one sided blade and a multi-purpose gun. I began to train myself, hoping to get stronger so I can get my revenge on those monsters. I became a little arrogant in my skills, thinking I was unbeatable and went to extract my revenge two years later…that was my downfall, I wasn't strong enough and since I was only nine years old at that time I lacked physical strength. This resulted in me being beaten by the monsters and teetering on the boarder of life and death blood seeping from my wounds and missing an arm. My whole life from the moment I was born up until that point flashed before my eyes as I felt the cold that accompanied the feeling of their soul being taken towards the afterlife, but by sheer willpower and a desire for revenge I refused to give up and next thing I knew was the feeling of hate and the need to let loose. I lost control of myself and without an ounce of mercy or humanity I brutally killed the Grimm with one arm, the other one beginning to regrow. After killing those Grimm I headed towards Atlas, regaining my sanity as I walked into it to buy things. I also had this odd desire to make a weapon that was a scythe, a sword and a gun. I worked hard, listening to a voice in my head as it helped and coached me into taking the sword and gun from my caretaker and making them into a transformable scythe, it took me a few months but it succeeded. After finishing it I began wondering around, and leaving Atlas. Shortly after I left the city I was nearly ambushed by an Alpha beowulf and to my shock a red mist appeared around me and the grimm, allowing me to match up to it and eventually overwhelm it." Yin stopped, rubbing her eyes and taking a sip of her tea while Ruby decided to speak up.

"Are you sure you can continue with your story" Ruby asked with worry and concern, Yin nodded in response.

"About a year later, marking it as a year since the hunter who raised me was killed, I met someone slightly older than I was and learned her name was Neo, yes the same Neo who worked with Roman Torchwick. This was before she became Roman's partner. She found me as I was suffering from the loss of my caretaker/ father. She came over to me and wrote a question as to why I was sad and so I told her about myself, I would tell her by writing in a notepad and she would write her responses in a notepad of her own. She told me the strange red mist that I explained about that appeared while I was fighting the beowolf was most likely my semblance so with her help I tested it out and turns out the red mist which I then called Macabre, named after a dance the brings the dead together in equality…fitting that my semblance's name is the same as the dance of spirits was truly my semblance. We also decided to get scrolls and so we scrapped what money we both had and managed to buy two scrolls, one for each of us and registered each other. We went our separate ways after a few weeks and I continued traveling alone. I Spent few years doing just that traveling around doing jobs to make money, I lost control a few times and most of all learned about my powers or at least as much as I could learn at that time without losing control. For example, I found out that if I truly fall into a desperate situation my second semblance, one created from the unknown energy that I learned to be of death itself, and that I call Pandora is a very fickle and dangerous semblance…it, for lack of better words, controls me allowing me to create a combination of 666 weapons, the number is in reference to demons of the underworld and my connection to death. Now the situation with my aura itself is unique. I am not completely dead nor alive so my aura is a corrupted existence like it exists but it shouldn't. this corrupted aura prevents me from using dust but in exchange of that because my aura was a healing aura this corruption to it made my aura capable of regenerating wounds...essentially, if I were to reference Neo, am a spirit forever bound to my body, cast away from a normal existence and forever living a curse." Yin said stopping to take another sip in order to ease her nerves.

Ozpin nodded as he noted everything he felt needed to be added to her profile and then spoke up, "Is that all you have to share with us Ms. Light" he asked, only for Yin to shake her head.

"No, there is still a little more. Eventually I made it to Vale I was Fourteen when I first arrived and saw on the news about a robbery at From Dust till Dawn. Learned you stopped it Ruby, and after a few days, one of which was my fifteenth birthday, I got bored of Vale and went to kill grimm. A few days later I was battling some grimm on a cliff, launched myself over it and landing in a forest and killed grimm before I got attacked by your sister and you know the rest. That is all of the important things I think you need to know about my life." Yin concluded, once more slipping a semi emotionless mask on to hide how she really is feeling.

Ozpin and Ruby spent the next few moments sitting quietly as they processed Yin's whole story and then Ozpin stood up, nodding his head towards the young half dead teen, turning away and heading back towards the door that led into the school from the roof, stopping as he opened the door the headmaster turned his head to look at Yin, and saying one last thing, "Thank you for discussing this with us Ms. Light, remember if you ever need to talk with anyone my office is always open and that you also have Ms. Rose and the rest of team RWBY that you can talk with if you need to." Ozpin said before vanishing into the school.

After Ozpin was gone Ruby smiled and hugged Yin, then stood up and helped her up also. "Thank you for telling a little about your past" Ruby smiled. She than skipped off to join her team for some practice. It was only after Yin knew that the two were nowhere near her anymore that her emotionless mask slipped from her face as a few tears fell from her eyes before she started to cry, something she didn't do since her caretaker was killed. She cried nonstop for a full hour before she finally calmed down and wiped her tears away. Her scroll flashed, signifying she had a message, she opened her scroll and saw it was from Neo, requesting to meet at a café. And with that Yin stood up and left the roof, leaving towards Vale.


A/N: well that takes care of Yin's history. But wow I was shocked that Yin actually cried at all.

Ruby: well she is still young so of course she would cry when she has to remember a parent being killed in front of her eyes.

A/N: True. Though to be honest I have had this chapter ready since last week and spent a full weak editing it. So, in the end I have edited this one chapter at least seven times.

Ruby: good for you but you should run now.

A/N: *runs off with Yin chasing *

Ruby: well that's it for this chapter remember read, review, favorite, follow etc… Flames will be used by Yin to burn A/N for revealing her past.
