'Hm.. this is.. a little bit awkward..' Alec looked around the area he was resting in, 2 girls slept next to him, except, not next to him, they were in beds, and he was on the floor. He didn't have a blanket, nor a pillow, and he got cold very easily. Alec didn't even remember moving into the room, he remembered falling asleep inside the library, working on the sheets Weiss had given him. He didn't have any classes, but he was ordered to do work on Grimm and training with weapons by Ozpin, but, deciding that Alecs' mind wouldn't have fully adapted to the area, he gave Alec some work on naming the parts, first giving him a few sheets on what the pieces of a Grimm was, what they did, and how they worked, then quizzing him on it.

Alec sat up slowly, being extremely quiet, he looked around the room once again, and found that only Blake and Yang were in the room, despite it being 5:00 AM. 'Where could they have gone?' Alec stood, then tiptoed to the door, opened it, went out, and closed it. 'Crap.. I forgot that the lights weren't on yet. Oh well, Ruby and Weiss are more important than darkness.. I hope.' Alec went down to the locker room that he stored his weapon in the day before, opened up his locker, then picked out his weapon. "Oh my baby." He whispered. Alec closed his locker and locked it, then searched around for the exit.

After finding the exit, he found a door that led to the courtyard. Alec opened the door and walked out, quickly looking around. "Damn, still dark." He paced around the courtyard, thinking of a place they could be. Getting closer to the edge of Beacon, he heard a familiar voice. He turned himself quickly and readied his weapon. Nothing. The voice was still there, so he decided to investigate. Alec put his back up against the wall and walked towards the noise, getting more and more audible with each step, he could hear what they were saying. "Ruby, you know I love you, don't say that." "I know, and I love you too, but there's still the feeling, ya know?" "There's never going to be anything between us, that's just silly. He's my apprentice and nothing more." Alec pushed off the wall and passed the corner, into the view of both the girls. "That's slightly depressing that I'll only be your apprentice." Ruby jumped backwards and fell. "Woah! Where'd you come from?!" Ruby said. "Oh, you know, the Beacon thingie." Alec stuck his thumb up and pointed to the giant school behind him.

"W-what? Aren't you supposed to be sleeping?!" Alec shrugged, and turned around, then ran his finger along his weapon. "Meh, probably, but you two weren't here, so I decided to look for you. I probably shouldn't have, but whatever. I'm going to go find something to do, have a good morning, you two love birds." Alec walked into the darkness of the night, grinning to the rants of Weiss. After finding a light source, he leaned his back against the wall and held his weapon with both of his hands. He ran his finger over the button that transformed the Katana into the Rapier. The reason he had never used the Katana before was because it was powered with something called "Dust", apparently, it's dangerous, and should only be used in the worst situations. "Perhaps, I should go train-.. ohoh! I just had the best idea ever! But.. crap, I need to get some metal, where can I get some? Oh, and some soft cloth." Alec ran towards the school, as soon as he got in, he sprinted down to the Forge area, no one was supposed to be in it unsupervised, or not being taught by a teacher, but he liked taking risks, besides, this was going to be so cool.

"Alright, lets see what we have here.." Alec opened up a box that read "Crafting Materials", which held tonnes of scrap metal and soft, blue fabric. He fistpumped and pulled out a large piece of metal, looking something similar to steel. Alec put it down on the table and started the Forge. This was going to be a long day.

13 hours later

Alec set his new masterpiece on the table, it was a nice piece of plate armor, fitted with the blue fabric he found, he also made a large pair of wings, and a black cape. Alec put down the hammer he had used and put on the plate armor, along with the wings. "This feels so fucking cool!" He looked down at the helmet on the table, looking similar to a Barbute, he put it on quickly and looked in one of the mirrors. "Damn, son! I look amazing! And now.. for the cape!" Alec took off the wings and flipped them onto the side that connected them to the plate armor. Clipping the black cape to the wings, he threw them back on and looked in the mirror once again. He gave himself a thumbs up and took them all off. He still had two more projects.

4 hours later

He laid out his new gear on the table beside his armor. He made two sheaths, one for a larger sword, looking like a flame on a hilt, and one for his Katier. He was very surprised no one had come to the Forge, he would need to- "Alec, do you know the rules?" A familiar voice said. "Oh fuck.." Alec said under his breath. He turned around and as greeted by Ozpin. "Yes, sir, I do." He took a sip of his coffee and looked at Alecs' eyes. "So why have you broken one?" Alec shrugged and looked at his armor. "I just.. wanted some protection and a new weapon, and something to carry them in." Ozpin looked at the set of armor next to Alec, and the weapons next to those. "And the wings?" "Reminded me of a character from a game that I liked. The cape was my own creation, I just wanted to look a bit cooler." Ozpin nodded slightly. "Well, you know the rules, and you should know the consequences, you will have extra lessons with Weiss, AND extra work." Alec got on his knees and held his hands up. "PLEASE NO!" Ozpin grinned and left. Alec stood up and put on his armor and left for his room. "Crap.."
