The sun rising brought with it a flurry of activity. Gone was the respite that night brought. He watched as the doctor came in and started to look over all the patients in each bed. Kylo looked over at Pyrrha and watched as a nurse looked over the vital recordings from the night. There was a hushed discussion happening between the two of them so he turned away to give them the necessary privacy. Idly he looked for something to keep his mind busy. It was a few minutes later when a movement to his right caught his eye. He saw the doctor looking over the still unconscious woman.

As the doctor walked away Kylo caught his attention, "That woman that you just checked out had the beginnings of a nightmare."

The doctor gave him a weird look before just walking away from Kylo. Kylo rolled his eyes as he just watched the doctor leave. Sinking into the Force he looked at the woman who still laid unconscious next to him. The Force gave him a slight indication that she was healing but much like he told Pyrrha last night there wasn't much he could interpret. Still the Force beckoned him to stay so he stayed and continued to feel the Force around him. Releasing his concentration on the Force he opened his eyes back up. When he did that he was slightly surprised to see both Professors Ozpin and Goodwitch sitting next to the bed. Looking at the time he realized that he had spent over an hour in the embrace of the Force. He saw that Pyrrha was no longer in her bed and there appeared to be no change in other woman.

"Welcome back Mr. Sian." Professor Goodwitch started

Kylo opened his mouth to correct her but let it shut close when he saw her expression. He glanced over at Ozpin and saw only a hint of amusement on his face. Kylo decided that the ceiling was more interesting.

"The doctors said that you were given only minimal pain meds and yet we couldn't rouse you when we arrived. What happened?" Professor Goodwitch asked

Kylo frowned, "I was meditating. But you should've been able to rouse me."

"So it is strange?" Goodwitch clarified

"Strange? Yes. Unheard of? No. I wish there was a more clear cut answer but honestly there isn't one."

Ozpin leaned forward and rested his head on his hands, "I think we have much to discuss."

Kylo couldn't help but swallow a little bit nervously. He nodded in acceptance of the simple statement hoping that he would be granted some time to gather his thoughts and figure how he would explain it.

"That said." Ozpin continued, "I think it would be remiss if we had that long conversation before you got settled into Beacon. I'm thinking sometime tonight would suffice."

Professor Goodwitch started up, "The doctors have cleared you to leave. Miss Adel will show you to your dorm and help you get settled in. While I do not expect you to start your classes today you need to be attending them by the end of the week. Tonight at 7:00 you will be expected to come to Headmaster Ozpin's office where we will have our discussion."

"I would like Pyrrha Nikos to be present if possible." At the raised eyebrow of Ozpin he continued, "She and I had a good conversation last night. I feel that she might be able to provide some valuable translations when necessary."

"Very well. Miss Nikos will be there as well. Is there anything else?" At the shake of Kylo's head Goodwitch continued, "Then we will leave you to get yourself organised."

He watched them leave as a nurse came over to him and started removing the various needles and monitors. He was given some privacy to change as the nurse drew a curtain fully around his bed. He picked up his torn tunic and realized that he would need to find some new clothes. He hesitated when he picked up the mask but put it on anyways pushing away the doubts. Grabbing the cloak he shoved it on as he exited out of the privacy area. Walking over to the nursing station he found a familiar figure of the woman with the massive chain gun.

She was wearing what appeared to be some sort of uniform and she realized that she wasn't carrying her purse with her. Instead she carried the swords he had chosen earlier as well as the pack that he had completely forgotten about once again. As he walked up she held them out. He quickly hooked them where they needed to go and turned back to his companion taking the pack from her. He saw her give him a critical once over before motioning him to follow her. Raising his eyebrows under his mask he fell into step next to her.

"I don't believe that we have been formally introduced." He said after a few minutes of silence, "My name is Kylosian"

She stopped and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Coco Adel."

"Well Coco Adel it is nice to meet you."

She let a small smirk come over her face as she started to walk again. She started to explain the inner workings of the Academy and Kylo realized was actually more of an actual school than the Temple ever was. He asked few questions, mostly just absorbing the information that she set before him. She seemed shocked when he said that the only possessions that he had were the ones that he had on him. Again he saw her give him the critical once over. Shrugging it off he the two of them continued to move forward and she continued to give him the grand tour. He was handed a device that he was told was a scroll and that it was basically the one thing he would need in order to survive Beacon. The tour ended as Coco showed him where his dorm was. As they entered the dorm Coco seemed surprised at the space he had.

"You should consider yourself lucky." She started, "You have a team dorm room all to yourself."

He chuckled, "Well it is a good thing that I can handle the peace a quiet. Where are you headed now?"

"Probably back to classes for the day. I was only excused for as long as it took to show you around. How about you?"

"Probably head to one of the training salle's and see if I can't get in a little practice."

She cocked her head at this, "Didn't you just get released from medical? And you want to go play with objects that inflict pain?"

Kylo nodded, "Pretty much."

"Man I wish I could see that."

"Who says you couldn't. I still don't think I know where the training salles are. I think I still need my guide."

Coco smiled as she took the offer, "And I would be remiss if I didn't make sure you were going to get there."

Kylo pulled his pack back up to his shoulders and once again the pair fell into step as they made their way to the training area. As they approached the board that was used to reserve the rooms she found herself hoping that one of the private rooms was empty. Looking at the board she found that there were a few salles open for the rest of the afternoon. She showed him how to book one then took him to the one she booked.

Once they entered the salle she sat down on the observation bench then turned to him. Her interest was piqued when she confirmed that the salles were soundproofed. She felt her eyebrows furrow when she watched him take off the swords and set them down. She watched him remove his robe and mask then begin rummaging through his pack. She couldn't help the confusion from becoming evident on her face as she watched him pull out three metallic orbs and a strip of cloth. She saw the smirk form on his face as he glanced at her before using the strip of cloth to create a blindfold. She watched as his hands started to expertly work over the orbs. She let out a small gasp as the orbs started to float and move around the room independently. She watched as he stood straight up and then ignited his lightsaber. It was then that she noticed that the three orbs seemed to instantly change course and started to float around him instead of aimlessly.

At the first firing of red light she let out another small gasp. When she noticed that the lightsaber absorbed the red bolt of light that her expression turned to awe. The orbs released several successive bolts all at varying angles and directions. She watched as Kylo flawlessly blocked or avoided all of the bolts. Her awe quickly formed into critical observation as she watched Kylo expertly step and manipulate his saber. Though she wasn't prolific with a sword herself, being the teammate and leader of a team with a very powerful swordsman made her familiar with at least the basics. She was impressed that every move with the saber seemed to set up the next couple of moves perfectly. Almost as if he was anticipating every shot that would come his way.

Kylo let out a small smile as he felt the familiar weight of the saber in his hands. The familiar exercise was calming to him as he felt the familiar presence of the Force flow through him. The familiar pulls and and warnings in the Force helped to guide every single one of his actions. Reaching out further than just the probes floating around him he felt the critical eyes of Coco watching him.

The probes continued to circle around him firing randomly communicating with each other to help coordinate attacks. As the three formed a triangle around him each one started firing rapid fire shots. Kylo sensed the technique coming and backflipped out of the first volley, sensing that the three weren't synchronized in firing. Planting his feet he started to spin his saber around twirling it from one side to the next blocking every bolt fired at him. Coco felt her eyes widen as the saber actually became indistinguishable as the blade flew from side to side. Once the probes stopped firing she thought the exercise was over. She watched as Kylo called his shoto blade to his hand and saw as he connected the blunt ends of each saber to one another forming a saber staff. Her curiosity further piqued she watched as Kylo changed his stance and spun the staff around.

The probes were a flurry of motion as they floated all around and sent testing strikes towards Kylo. Kylo easily stopped all the bolts before they could reach him. After a few moments the intensity seemed to all of a sudden increase. Coco noticed that this style was more about using his momentum rather than the first style which was more about precise strikes. She also noticed that he started to make some noises and grunts as he moved. Though the strikes were no less precise it seemed to Coco that he was less restrained than earlier. She started to mentally compare the two styles and found herself realizing that most of her knowledge came from talks with Yatsuhashi.

The extinguishing of his sabers pulled Coco from her thoughts. She saw that he had a look of absolute calm on his face as he pulled off his blindfold. She couldn't help but smile as she saw him so relaxed.

"So did you enjoy the show?" He asked.

"It was entertaining to say the least. Also makes me wonder if you held back during your duel." she accused.

He shook his head, "I would never hold back. Professor Nuyi is really that good. In fact she reminded me of the person who trained me."

Coco heard the respect in his voice as he talked about both Professor Nuyi and his old teacher. She watched him pack his things in his pack. She pulled out her scroll and looked at the time. She saw that the cafeteria had just started to serve dinner. Not only that but she had several messages from her teammates. Letting a scowl come across her face she started to read them. Looking back up at Kylo she realized that she really needed to get back to her team.

"Sorry, but I really need to get back to my team."

Kylo nodded, "All good. I'll be fine here. You go do what you need to."

As she left Kylo put his mask and robe back on. Again he contemplated going without it, but it had become such a part of him recently that he put it on anyway. He clipped the sword but decided to just leave the shoto blades off. Shouldering the pack and holding onto the sheaths of the shoto blades he made his way back to his dorm room. Setting the pack down he found some simplistic clothes on his bed as well as a school uniform. Letting a smile grace his face he realized that he should probably change into the uniform of the school. Looking around he decided to change into the rather simplistic shirt and pants instead rather than the complicated uniform.

He looked at the time and saw that he still had some time before his meeting with Ozpin. Deciding to forgo mingling in the cafeteria he pulled out some of his rations to eat instead. As he finished his small meal he pulled out his scroll and looked at where Ozpin's office was. Looking at the time he realized that he would need to leave in order to get to the office on time.

He was pleasantly surprised when he noticed that he seemed to just blend into the crowd with the removal of his mask. He arrived at the lift at the base of the tower and found himself slightly surprised that there was no sort of receptionist. Getting in the lift and pushing the correct button for Ozpin's office he felt himself just sink a little bit further into Force. He felt her soothing caress as the lift continued its ascent. As the doors opened up he left the direct contact and walked towards the simplistically imposing doors. As he moved forward he saw the door open automatically and saw that Pyrrha was already sitting down in front of Ozpin's desk. Entering the office he noticed that Professor Nuyi was sitting in another chair off to one of the sides. Professor Goodwitch stood slightly behind Ozpin's left hand side. He took the open seat that was immediately on Pyrrha's right.

Ozpin started the conversation, "Well it seemed that you enjoyed yourself with Coco this afternoon."

Kylo grinned, "She was definitely helpful."

Ozpin returned the smile, "Well, before you fully integrate yourself into the academy I believe that we need to touch on a few topics."

Kylo nodded in understanding, "Of course. But understand this, there are things about me that regardless of what you want to know, I will probably never tell. And honestly the less you know about those things the better off everyone will be."

"Very well Kylo. However, if there is any situation in which those issues will help us, I do expect you to give us that information. So let us start with the obvious."

"My aura. Or to be more precise, the lack thereof."

Glynda stepped forward, "The fact that a person doesn't have an aura is something that is absolutely unheard of. Only Grimm don't have you aura."

Kylo swallowed, "And yet the impossibility sits directly before you. I am not from Remnant; though I guess you have already figured that out. Where I have come from there isn't anything called aura. Instead we have the Force."

"The Force?" Glynda prompted.

"The Force is… Well, simply put, the Force is an energy field that surrounds all living things. It binds us all and touches everything as everything touches it. You. Me. Even the metal of the gears. The Force permeates through all of it"

"So how does one use the Force?" Glynda asked.

"In everyone's blood there are microscopic organisms called midi-chlorians. They form a symbiotic bond with the host. We provide them with nutrition and the ability to live, in turn if there are enough of them within a host, they allow the host to touch the Force around them."

"What does the Force allow you to do?" Glynda asked.

Kylo shot a smirk towards Pyrrha, "A wise man once told me that with the Force as my ally nothing is impossible."

"So that lightning that you shot at me, that was the Force?" Nuyi asked.

Kylo's eyes immediately went down towards his hands. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Pyrrha's questioning glance. Realizing that he needed to tell them about it he turned to face Ozpin, "Yes. The lightning was a Force technique but to understand it better you need to understand a basic concept about the Force. There are two sides to the Force. The Lightside. And the Darkside. Jedi Knights are students of the Lightside, and Force Lightning is a technique that is espoused with the Darkside."

"So this Darkside is evil?" Ozpin asked.

"It isn't that simple." Kylo answered, "It is more of a corruption."

"Power corrupts while absolute power corrupts absolutely." Pyrrha muttered.

"Yeah, that is a good way of looking at it." Kylo responded, "A person who uses the Darkside of the Force becomes corrupted in nearly all aspects of themselves."

Glynda frowned, "All this aside it still doesn't explain why you don't have an aura."

"Actually i think it might." Pyrrha started. Her confidence waned when everyone turned to look at her. At the encouraging look from Ozpin she continued, "Kylo told me about a deviation within the Force that he is aware of. A race of people who are physically blind yet can still see through the use of the Force."

Kylo stayed silent. He knew that whatever conclusion they were too reach had to come from them and them alone. His focus was on Ozpin who seemed to just be observing everyone else in the room. The seemingly all knowing gaze that was on Ozpin's face reminded Kylo of Master Yoda. There was a slight pain as Kylo pondered the fate of the Jedi Grandmaster, but he pushed the thoughts out of his head as Goodwitch started to speak.

"Miss Nikos you are saying that we are another anomaly like this other race that Kylo has spoken of? How are we sure that he is not the anomaly?"

Kylo recognized the professor's tone. It was one that his own master had previously given him many times: a teacher who already knew the answer to the question. Looking over to Pyrrha he saw the face of concentrated thought. She was looking down at her hands, her brows were slightly furrowed. He saw a slight twitch at the corner of her mouth almost as if she was talking. He was the only one to hear her whisper "color" and as soon as he heard that he smiled.

"He doesn't have an aura." She started, "The answer lays in the question itself. While he doesn't have an aura, we may have the ability to touch the Force itself. Here we have developed a variation that has allowed us to survive."

Ozpin smiled at Pyrrha's answer, "Very good but then that begs the question as to whether or not the use of the Force can be something beneficial to us."

At this Kylo spoke up, "No. No no no no no no no. You don't understand. Your aura allows you to fight unhindered without fear of corruption. The Force is not the same. Anyone who can touch the Force risks exposing themselves to the corruptive nature of the Darkside. It is always there, demanding said person to succumb to its call."

"Surely it can be resisted." Glynda argued.

"With a lifetime of training sure. But even then the pull of the Darkside is like that of a beautiful woman who is bent on getting her way. Even the strongest of wills may break under her guile."

Out of the corner of his eye he saw something flash over Pyrrha's face before her features were instantaneously schooled. The confusion he felt radiating from Nuyi indicated that she saw the emotion as well. He put the information away as he focused instead on the feelings from Ozpin and Goodwitch. He felt that they were both unhappy with what he was saying but beyond that he couldn't decipher what was being projected into the Force. He watched Ozpin intently for any sign of what the headmaster was thinking. He felt the Force swirl around him, then all stand still as the presence rested on his shoulders.

Looking to Ozpin he spoke once more, "There is nothing I want more than to be able to fight alongside Jedi again. But there is just too much danger in it. You fight with your emotions and that is something that a Jedi really shouldn't do. Besides, in order to train someone in the Force I would have to take a student on."

He didn't need the Force to understand the look that Ozpin was giving him. Looking at Goodwitch her face remained impassive. Reaching out to the Force he tried to figure out what she was thinking but found himself unable to interpret it. He expected one of the two of them to try and convince him otherwise, however, it was Professor Nuyi.

"What about Pyrrha here?" She started, "You seem to already trust her and from what little I've seen she is as level headed as the best of them."

Kylo looked to Pyrrha to gauge her reaction and saw the surprise on her own face. Closing his eyes he sank into the Force looking for guidance. However, the Force remained eerily silent on the matter. Relying on his own intuition and feelings he opened his eyes back off. Looking back to Pyrrha he offered her an apologetic look but was once again surprised by the look she gave back in return.

"Professors, while I am flattered that you would consider me a candidate to learn this, but I think we are overlooking the very fact that Kylo is extremely hesitant to have us learn about the Force. Since, he is the only one that has had experience with the Force that makes him the only expert on the matter. He will have a different perspective on this matter than we will."

Ozpin gave a sideways glance to Goodwitch before he spoke on the matter, "Very well we will put this matter away for now, however there are still a few more issues to decide."

Goodwitch stepped forward, "From your spar it appears that your combat ability is on par with that of our older students. However, from what we know of your history it would be a safe assumption that your educational understanding of Remnant is less than that of a first year. With that decided you will be put in the classes with the other first year students. We will let the professors know somewhat of your situation in order for you to catch up."

Kylo nodded in understanding. The conversation dwindled into figuring out the rest of the necessary accommodations for Kylo to begin his career at Beacon within the next couple of days. As Kylo was dismissed he felt the Force swirl around him. He tried to reach out and grab the understanding but the answer he was searching for swirled elusively out of his understanding. As both he and Pyrrha stepped into the lift he felt her relief roll off her in waves. They offered each other a small smile as they eventually went their separate ways.

A/N: Thank you for reading this chapter. Will try to update soon, but with Christmas fast approaching I don't promise anything.
