Flyresa...why now? If that is who you are, then why...are you not yourself? I saw and felt you die..in my arms. Yet, through the miracle of all odds, you are alive to see me once more. Leon, Raynes, Riviera, all of them gone. You survived though, if I had to say this...it is convinent...too convienent. Who are you really? And why are you helping me? I don't understand, but I will find out. One way or another.

"Kyran, are you okay?" Flyersa asked concernly. She had stopped her trek forward through the Emerald Forest.

"I was just thinking you know? About the times we had together, all the memories, it makes me happy once more. Still, thinking back. I lost too many people to count." I said softly. We then kept moving. Grimm would be on us soon as sunset approached. They were dominatly active at night, and even the White Fang might attack us. We had to keep moving.

"We lost way too much. I want to go back to the way we had before. Where we were safe. Not fugitives, where we can finally get married. Don't you?" She said sniffling softly. Was she planning to cry?

"Yes in a way I do. However, we already are here. Given the current situation, we need to fight for our future just as we once did. But now. Against my own father, the Black Rose. And even...him." I clenched my fist while hissing through my teeth. I was angry at all that had happened, all the trouble through my life. However, the only way we could win, was to fight.

"Flyresa..." I called her name.

"Yes Kyran?" She responded as I turned towards her smiling before my expression changed to anger as I lifted my loaded Gunblade towards her. She just looked down the barrel silently as she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

"Who are you truly?" I asked.

"What? What are you talking about? I am Flyresa, your Fiance!" She yelled trying to reason with me.

"Are you though? Not once, have you talked about this." I said before using my free hand to show her my Silver Angel Pendant. She just stood silent as I continued talking. "Also, while I may of proposed. I still have the ring. Which Cecilia who broke me out, gave to me along with it. Finally, I know Flyresa's personality by heart. You are not her. Even gaining years worth of skill and power in the span of 18 months. It just seems physically impossible. So you have 3 seconds to tell me who you really are. Or...I shoot you right here right now." I said confidently as I pulled the hammer back on the revolver preparing it to fire.

"3"

"Kyran...please think about this." She pleaded.

"2" I placed my finger on the trigger.

"KYRAN!" She yelled.

"1" Putting pressure on the trigger.

"WAIT OKAY! I...I'll tell you please...don't kill me." She pleaded as she was crying. I kept the Gunblade aimed at her.

"I don't know how to say it without explaination. So let me tell my name to start...my name is...Ariana Samantha...Rhodes." She cried softly as the last name hit me almost instantly. What...what was this?

"Rhodes? Wha.." I tried asking before she interrupted me.

"When you were born...you were not a single child. At the time of your birth, a second child was with you. Carren took the second child away from your mother, and used it in experimentation. I am that second child. I was brainwashed to believe you were my enemy. After some time...I broke free of the Brainwashing. Realizing what I had done. All the sins I committed. And...what and who I am is simple. I am your younger sister Kyran. I have been from the start. This is the first time I am able to talk to you as a person." She kept crying as she dropped to her knees in pure sorrow. The wave of shock had overcome my body as I dropped the Gunblade to the ground. My...I have a younger sister? What...no...no. I could feel tears shedding from my eyes as I could still hear crying from her. What sort of sick sadistic man does this to his daughter? I slowly walked over to Ariana who was still hunched over the ground crying, tears hitting the ground in pain. I sat down next to her and hugged her tighty which she responded in return. All our sins, all our faults. Had all come together at once. We realized that were both meant to be weapons from the start. That our destiny would be set. I would change that...for me and her.

"I am so sorry Ariana. I am...what have we done?" I cried softly.

"What have we both done? Carren did this much younger to me. Had mother keep her silence or it would happen to you too. I realized...I almost killed you. What kind of sister nearly kills her older brother?" She demanded to know.

"I don't know. It doesn't matter anymore. I am alive and that's all that matters. We are going to make him pay. I swear it." I spoke confidently to her as she hugged me tighter. The pain slowly washing away and revealing her true self...for the first time in her natural life. She had been fed lies from the entire start same as me. However, the pain was much greater for her.

"He will brother. He will, I swear it." She finished crying as she got up offering her hand for me. I took it as she picked me up off the ground. "We can't do that from here Kyran. We have to continue north towards the Village. While I may have told them lies, I had one piece of the truth. My contact who helps me is in that Village. Roka, she...well she is a Faunus." She said softly as I clenched my fist at even the mention of the word.

"Why her Ariana?" I asked.

"I know you don't like them Kyran believe me. However, she helped me when no one else would. Please, just consider it." Ariana said. I didn't though, I really didn't like the faunus at all. However in the end. I don' have a choice.

"Can you trust this Faunus? Can I even trust you Ariana?" I demanded to know.

"Yes and I won't betray my family. Do you need proof Kyran I mean come on! I am your sister! Please. If you want to kill me after the trials, I will gladly allow it! For now, that demon inside you will kill everyone we know and love. The only reason I came along was to make sure you live. I know your tendecies to do the insane. Losing control of yourself to your emotions. It happens more than you think. I can trust you, but can you towards me?" She yelled at me.

"You worked under Carren's Rule for far too long! What if he installed a measure just in case this happened? To get close to me and kill me!?" I screamed before her palm slapped me across the face. She became beyond pissed.

"How dare you accuse me of such a thing! I hate our father as much as you! What he did to me. I never had a childhood like you. I was forced to train day in day out. Doing everything I can to become the ultimate assassin. You knew Mother. I always wanted to. You of all people should know this. Please, Kyran...don't throw out the only help you have right now. Stop the lone wolf act. You have people who care about you. Gale, Murasaki, Cecilia and even me. We all want you to survive. However, we need you to trust us if we are going to be able to stop The Black Lightning. So...are you going to trust me or not?" She asked one last time as I thought of it. This could all be a ruse but...then again...it wasn't. She genuinly wanted to help me. Murasaki being a friend was a stretch and Gale has a past with me. Cecilia though, what was she to me? A lover? Friend? Or...something more? However, she was right. I needed to survive, I wanted to survive. Whatever the future held. I didn't want it being destroyed. I would do it for me, Flyresa, and...for every generation that would come after me. As what I did now, would affect them.

"I trust you...I am sorry. Given what has happened in the past..I don't want anyone else to die. Including you. I have lost too much. For me to die and give up now...would be pointless. So let's go Ariana...before I change my mind." I said as I picked up my Gunblade holstering. I walked North without even looking at her. Ariana just looked at me silently as she was being ignored by her brother. What was now and then...would change immensly. Within Kyran lied the Black Lightning, and Etheral Grimm who for once, had lost possession. And within Ariana, a burning desire to keep her brother safe no matter the cost. The Rhodes Siblings were by themselves unique on their own, but once their trust was beyond sacred. The only thing that could break that bond...was a death. And that's exactly, what President Carren Rhodes and The Shadow Five had exactly in mind for these 2.
