A/n
So, I realized I ended up making my Author's note in the previous chapter WAY too long so I moved it from the beginning of the chapter to the end. For that I apologize and promise to keep my A/N's shorter from now on. Given how much I've addressed in that author's note I won't be making any more long A/N's other than to address any public reviews on the story and even then I will only address the ones I feel I need to adress
I probably should have said this in the previous chapter, but most of what I have written about my OC are not set in stone, the only thing that is, is that he is not going to be a major combatant in comparison to everyone else in the cast. This is the only thing set so as to avoid any differences in cast later on and to avoid the introduction of other OCs as well.
I am using the american way of writing the date and am using when RWBY came out as a way to gauge their timeline. As such ten years before canon would be 2003, since RWBY came out in 2013.
Now for the disclaimer
Tisrem does not own RWBY or any other works of fiction stated in this story, the only thing he owns are his OC and the plot of this fanfic

Yew Branwen P.O.V
If you're expecting me to say that I am super cool or powerful right off the bat, I'll just be blunt and say this. I am in the body of a seven year old dog faunus, who I remind you just had his aura unlocked, and am in no way able to access the gamer system. The most overpowered anime ability I have ever heard of. I don't even feel all that special with my aura unlocked, nothing is there, I checked. I just can't feel it there, despite spending the entirety of yesterday and even some of last night trying to use it.
Granted I'm pretty sure that it's because I don't have any training but still. Thinking back on my failures to 'bring up my aura' my thoughts are interrupted when I hear knocking at 'my door'.
"You awake Yew?" It's Ruby, I still can't believe I'm in Remnant. I mean how does something like this just happen. Forget the breaking of all known laws of physi-, wait there aren't any laws of physics to address this transmigration I'll call it since I have no other better terms for whatever this is.
"I'll be right out, just gimme a sec!" Interrupting my own thoughts I got out of bed and headed over to the door where my new 'cousin' was waiting. Opening it up to see the young little red, still looking just as eager as when we first met. I finally found out why she was so eager to talk to me the other day. Seems that Tai told her about trying to adopt me, and she really wanted a brother.
"We're gonna get training to be Huntsman! Aren't you excited!?" Ah yes, not even a day after I was adopted Qrow is going to give me training. Not really surprising considering what he told me about aura. It seems the show's vagueness about the topic isn't applicable here, there have been actual studies done on it, and all of them state that, even without training one's aura increases their strength exponentially. Meaning without anyone teaching me, I might end up breaking something in the house. Of course once Ruby found out about this, she and Yang asked their dad if they could join us.
"Not really Ruby, I don't want to be a Huntsman. I'm just doing this so I don't break anything." I know how that sounds to others, 'you were sent to remnant and you don't want to be a superhero that fights monsters?' No, no I do not. I much rather keep my own life thank you very much. I like to think I'm a good person but risking my life and running into immediate danger for strangers? No thank you. I'll still take the superpowers though, they seem fun to read about.
"Aww, why not?" yeah, she was whining about me not wanting to be a Huntsman. I can understand why she wants to be one though, I mean the pay is awesome and the benefits make the military benefits back home look like nothing.
"I just don't want to risk myself for people I don't care about Ruby." I don't know if she would understand the concept just yet. She's only five after all.
"Leave the kid alone about that Ruby, if he doesn't want to be a Huntsman, then that's alright. There are other paths in life." Huh, Qrow doesn't seem to be drunk this time around, he's talking more eloquently. "I feel like you thought something rude just now brat."
What the heck? Is he some kind of mind reader?
"Nah, I'm not a mind reader. It's just written all over your face." Or he just gets it a lot and knows how to recognize the look. "Come on Twiggy, let's get you and the girls started so we can finish up before noon." And that's another thing, ever since I took on my new name, Qrow keeps calling me Twiggy and when I asked him why he did that he said this.
"Well, Tai calls Yang his sunny little dragon, and Ruby, little rose. I thought since I've got a kid now, may as well give ya a nickname just like Tai did with his."
I mean, it's not the idea that bothers me. It's just, Twiggy? I know I'm a kid again and because of that my muscles aren't defined anymore, but come on. I'm a kid again! I'm not SUPPOSED to be lean just yet.
As I was thinking that I heard a pair of voices giggling, I guess my thoughts were still showing on my face. So I turned around to greet my other new 'cousin'.
"Morning Yang." as I said this and turned around she seemed to look a little surprised. Why? I'm not the kind of dog who bites. 'Heh, I can make jokes like this without being racist now.' The thought amuses me and I doubt it will ever stop, didn't stop me making fun of my own race on Earth, won't stop me now.
"Morning" she still had her hair up in twin tails, just like yesterday. Guess she's not using the free flowing style she was known for in canon just yet. Still don't understand how she can get her hair like that though, I mean it's long enough to reach her knees. Yet she still manages to get her hair like that in time for everything.
"You're getting lost in thought again Yew." Oh shoot.
"Sorry about that, thanks for reminding me Ruby." I asked her and Yang to do that if I ever end up going on a tangent and daydreaming. I really need to break that habit. "Did I miss anything important?"
"Not really." My question was answered by Yang. "Just that you need to exercise before you can control your aura, nothin big."
"Exercise to control eh? Any specific exercises to do? Or do I do standard calisthenics to start off." Finally a subject I can be comfortable with, I mean exercise is universal. Or I guess multi-universal in this case.
"What are calisthenics?" Yang seemed to be asking the same thing by the look on her face.
"Body weight exercises, like push ups or sit ups."
"How do you know what that means kid?" asked Qrow, he seemed confused.
"I work out to keep in shape, steady body, steady mind and all that." I really did, working out and eating right actually makes it easier to think about things weirdly enough.
"Well I guess that takes care of the hard part then, that means we just have to find your limit and go from there." Qrow seemed to just shrug off my knowledge about exercising. "We'll be seeing where you are at in terms of physique until just about nine I guess, then I'll give ya the tests Tai picked up to see where you place in terms of school."
"School?" Oh no, I didn't think about that. I am NOT going through school again.
"We'll talk about that later, for now, we're just gonna go for a run for now." Of course we start with the only exercise I hate with a passion. "Just follow me, and don't run off. We're going to run through the forest. It's full of Grimm and I don't want any of you getting hurt, if you get lost or separated from the group just keep along the path, it'll lead you to the outpost where we're going to double back from and head home."
At the beginning the run wasn't anything special really, besides the fact that I wasn't feeling wiped after jogging for a mile, granted we took small breaks in between to make sure we could make it in the first place, even still. Back on Earth my stamina was the worst, I mean in terms of calisthenics I was always average, only being able to do the bare minimum of what was expected of someone of my height to be able to do yet my cardio was always somehow as bad as someone who was at minimum thirty pounds obese. But still that run we just did still blew any run I've done on Earth out of the water. Though we'll still need to run back, and I'll probably be wiped by then.
Still though, as is to be expected in this world. The run didn't stay peaceful the entire time.
"Grrr." I heard it, and instantly I knew why PTSD was so scarring. I froze up, everything slowed down, and I was back to the moment I was staring down a beowulf before turning tail and running.
Qrow must've noticed it before I did because he was already lagging behind us. I guess that's to be expected considering how he's already experienced in this sort of thing. Because of him lagging behind us, when I froze to a stop he was already there to make sure I kept moving.
"Don't stop kid." He said this while pushing me forward. "If you stop you might get hurt, or worse."
'If you stop you will age, if you age you will die.'
Those were words I heard while watching anime back on Earth. I never really thought about them much, I knew the meaning behind them of course. But I never really understood until now.
"a mind of steel, so that's why he kept saying that." I whispered this to myself under my breath, thinking about yet another anime. My favorite fictional character always had this mindset when entering a dangerous situation, through the process of self hypnosis. I never really considered it viable for much since I was never in a life threatening situation, but if it's any chance to work I need it to.
I steadied my breath as we ran, Ruby and Yang in front of us and Qrow behind me. I needed to get this feeling under control. In, out. In, out. Breath with a cadence. In, one two three, Out. In one two three, Out. This was all I knew as we ran, I kept my eyes on the path cutting through the trees. In, one two three, Out. counting every step in between breaths. I lost track of time like I did before, only this time, the feeling of panic flooding through me was no longer present. Rather a sort of mindlessness, I couldn't think of anything but what actions I would and were taking.
"GRRR" the growling of the beowulf was right behind me now, idly at the back of my mind, I wondered where Qrow went. I could no longer see Ruby or Yang ahead on the path. Yet I could still see it, so I kept running.
"GRAAAH!" I heard before I felt a gust of wind coming from behind me.
My mind still preoccupied with keeping my breath steady, left my body to react on instinct. Somehow I knew where the beowulf would attack me from behind, and shifted my body accordingly to move out of the way.
"Grrr" the beowulf was now further away, with me still running in the same direction, and it having to stop in order to steady itself from it's failed assault.
'It doesn't matter, if anything happens Qrow is there, so just keep moving.' This thought piercing the veil I purposefully placed on myself, in mind I kept my pace. Thinking about all those phrases I heard in anime but never really understood until now. 'Steel your mind, steady your heart, face forward and never stop.'
This phrase seemed to have awoken something in me, I felt a rush of energy running through me, almost enough to break my concentration on this mantra. Instead of focusing on it I kept moving, 'Don't stop.' This kept going through my head, as I ignored the disappearance of the growling coming from the beowulf. Nothing else mattered, just keep moving.
Date: same day (moments prior)
Qrow P.O.V
'My semblance is just the absolute worst.'
There was another beowulf, why was there one so close to the road? Blame my semblance. It finds a way to screw everyone over.
Sensing the beowulf come closer, and lagging behind a bit so I could keep a better eye on the kids, I noticed that Twiggy froze, coming up behind him I pushed him forward, can't have him getting hurt again. His aura being unlocked was enough for him to heal the first time around*. He won't be able to heal as fast as before this time.
"Don't stop kid." I said this while pushing the kid a little more. "If you stop you might get hurt, or worse."
Those words seemed to have struck a chord in the kid, his eyes widened a little. As if he was finally realizing something. Before he started to move a little quicker, sharper, more sure of himself.
"a mind of steel, so that's why he kept saying that." Who said that? What was the kid whispering to himself about?
As if it were a trigger, the kid started to steady his breath, taking a breath in, running three steps, before breathing out. I've never seen a kid do that before, at least not without being taught first. He's somehow doing an aura trigger exercise in the middle of a jog, running from a beowulf at that. What's with this kid?
"GRRR" The beowulf was close enough to the kid that Ruby and Yang were able to hear it. They were already taught what to do in this situation by me and Tai. Keep together, stay calm and run as fast as you can before hiding. Though it seems like they forgot their new cousin in the process, leaving him behind. Or maybe they knew I would take care of it first.
"GRAAAH!" Cr*p! The kid's about to be attacked, I shouldn't have taken my eyes off him in the first place!
Readying Harbinger to cut the beowulf down before it lays even one paw pad on my newly adopted son, I was about to strike when, yet again the kid surprised me. He somehow triggered his aura, I could see the faint glow of green surrounding him, just as he shifted just enough to get out of the way of the beowulf, yet he still maintained his balance. How does a kid have that sense of balance? Even if it's subconscious he shouldn't have this level of concentration to maintain his aura and still have enough of a sense of self to move like that.
"Grrr." looks like the big bad wolf is prone, better get rid of it before it causes more trouble.
Passing by the beowulf, a simple swing and it's head is clean off. 'Damn, I'm good.' is what I think to myself before returning my attention back to the kid, I wouldn't have to worry about Ruby and Yang this time around, I made sure they knew where to go if we were separated in the forest. The outpost I told them to run to was at the end of the path we're currently running on.
This thought was enough of a comfort for me to return my full attention to Yew. I was watching his every move as he kept pace. HIs aura was even brighter than before, and it kept getting brighter till finally the dam burst. The kid somehow managed to create an aura flow to form his shield without even realizing it! He would make a hell of a Huntsman, too bad he doesn't want to be one.
After all that it didn't take long to reach the outpost, especially since the kid was able to keep up his pace the entire time. Tai is not gonna believe me when I tell him about this, what that kid just did usually takes years of practice during childhood or a- that's why he was able to do it.
Taking another look at the kid as we were slowing down since we were getting close enough to our goal, I noticed the kid had a look of pure concentration on his face. That's what got him to do it, he went into "desperation" mode and it caused him to forcefully activate his aura to its absolute maximum potential for a kid like him.
That still doesn't take away from what he did though, the balancing act he pulled off when dodging the beowulf like that, as well as instinctively guiding his aura into a shield instead of just having it flood wildly and uncontrolled. It would take months if not years to reach that point, at least it would for a kid like him. Seriously brat, don't keep surprising me like this.
Date: same day, Right as Yew and Qrow reach the outpost
Yew P.O.V
When I came to myself, I was finally able to relax. I noticed I was already at the "outpost" that Qrow was talking about when we started running. I really want to say the age old trope of, "I was so out of it I couldn't remember what I did." but I don't think that's how this sort of thing works. I mean it is all blurred together but I still remember what I did, even how. But I don't think I could do it again on command, at least not without practice.
Looking back on it, I should probably try and gain the skill to call on that "trance" I fell into on command. It'll make it so that I won't need the girls to protect me, and thus make surviving this world actually feasible. I really hope Qrow is willing to teach me how to do that, if he even knows what I just did.
There's Ruby and Yang, it seems they got here before me.
"Ruby! Yang!" I called out to them, walking up still feeling the power flowing through me, though now at a more calm and sedate pace than before. Looks like that little incident was just what I needed in order to actually be able to feel my aura in the first place
"Yew! You're ok!" Ruby looked relieved to see me, Yang did too, but weirdly enough she was still pretty calm in her approach. Given how she is in canon you would expect her to be lively right?
"Yeah, but it was a really close call back there." Don't let being able to use aura in an emergency give you an ego, you're not a shonen protagonist.
"I'll say."
"AGH!" for the record I did not scream like a sissy and anyone who says otherwise is a liar and slanderer.
"What's wrong Twiggy you forgot I was with you?" Qrow said this looking really amused at my reaction. "I was there the entire time, even when you used your aura for the first time."
"Yeah I didn't notice you were there." I was scratching the back of my head at this, no I did not pick this up from anime, my head really was itchy. "Though you can't blame me for that, I was-"
"Too concentrated on your goal to notice anything else. I know, it happens to all of us." Qrow interrupted me trying to defend myself. Though it looks like it wasn't needed in the first place.
"You used your aura!?" Ruby got really excited all of a sudden. "How did it feel!? How did you do it!? What happened!? DID YOU UNLOCK YOUR SEMBLANCE!?" Ruby was getting louder and talking faster as she was saying all this. My poor ears.
"He didn't use a semblance but he did manage to create an aura shield." Qrow shrugged off Ruby's tangent just like that. I guess that's to be expected considering who I'm talking about, he's probably dealt with this with Summer too. "As for how he did it, he was about to be attacked by a beowulf."
Ruby sobered up at Qrow's words, Yang even seemed a little worried at that. Why, though? I know I was attacked but if my aura was activated from it and Qrow was around to make sure I was safe, then everything is fine right?
"Are you ok?" Surprisingly it's not Ruby who asked that, it was Yang. She was looking at me with a face of concern, a look that honestly did not suit her.
"I'm fine girls, the old crow was there to make sure I was safe." Maybe cracking a joke will help out here.
"Are you sure?" Ruby and Yang seemed even more worried now. What did I do? I was trying to make them feel better but now it's even worse.
"Yes, I'm sure I'm fine, at most I was just having a hard time keeping from losing my breath." Trying to keep a lackadaisical look on my face is a lot harder than it sounds when faced with people genuinely worried about you. "Though with my aura activating like that I was able to get away. Speaking of." After finishing that sentence I turned around to face my 'old man'.
"Could you tell me how I did that? I want to know so I could try and do it again."
"I couldn't tell ya." Qrow seemed to shrug slightly at that, as if unsure how to explain. "It's different for everyone, we all have our triggers, mostly focused on what we want to do with our lives. Dreams and goals an' all that."
"Oh, so it was because of my 'goal' being to live and get away from that thing." I won't be able to replicate that, no matter how much I want to. At least not in a safe environment like this, and I'm not exactly the type to risk my life all for the sake of something that might not even happen in the first place.
"There are other ways, but that was the most common. The easiest way, since it's so general and vague it's really easy to do as long as you have a strong enough will for it."
'That won't work for me then, I'm not the type to be willful or forceful. Not anymore.' I hated when I was like that. I was such a horrible person back then and I refuse to return to that mindset. Maybe I can try and use Dragon Ball's tried and true method of PTSD solving everything! ('I'm not that stupid, of course it wouldn't work.') though there are other theories I could try out.
Like maybe Bleach had it right and the soul would bring out it's latent potential when it is in danger of termination although just straining the body enough works too in that franchise otherwise training wouldn't really amount to the same level of growth that is shown in it. Or maybe even Pokemon, I mean they treated aura more like ki and life energy but experimenting with their methods might work. Or maybe even the Fate franchise's utilization of prana coils, I know for a fact that the Fate franchise utilizes the soul for the mass majority of their mythos, so you never know. Or maybe even-
"Yew, you're lost in thought again." wait what?
"I was?" It didn't even feel like more than a few minutes passed though.
"Yeah, we're just about to start really training now!" Ruby looked really excited at the thought of that, and I don't know why but I had a feeling I wasn't going to enjoy this.
Date: same day( a few moments later)
Ruby P.O.V
This was so weird, I mean I have a cousin now! He's a little strange but he's family now so I'm sure I'll get over it. Still I have a cousin! He's a faunas, though it's kind of hard to tell what kind, I know he's like a dog, like Zwei! Oh and Uncle Qrow unlocked his aura while he was asleep so that he could heal faster. It's too bad he doesn't know how to use it though. I mean me and Yang were able to use our auras as soon as they were unlocked! But Yew wasn't able to and I'm a little confused about that, Uncle Qrow says that it's normal though so maybe it's just something I don't know?
"pant* I pant* Hate pant* cardio!" Then there's that, he's really weak too. Even though he managed to use his aura in the forest he still isn't using it to help with training.
"Come on! Just use your aura like earlier!" I slowed down a little to try and encourage him to speed up while we were running back to the house. "It's really easy! Just grab it and BOOM!"
"I haah* have been trying haah* that." Why is he breathing funny now? He sounds better though, so maybe it's helping!
"Ruby, he can't use his aura like you and Yang." That was Uncle Qrow, what does he mean by that? "You and Yang had Huntsmen parents who both had complete control over their auras. That makes it easier for you two to control your aura the way you do." So it's because of Mom and Dad that I can use my aura?
"Then why is it so hard for Yew? You're his dad now right? And you're the best Huntsman ever!"
Uncle Qrow laughed at that "Heh yeah I am kid, but not the same way with you and your dad. I adopted Yew, and that means yeah he's my son, but he wasn't born from me."
"Born from?" What does that mean?
"Ask your father when you're older" Uncle Qrow was making a funny face! "Let's just say that the blood in me and Yew is different. Now why don't you run next to your sister, I'll help Yew out."
"Ok!" I used my semblance to catch up to Yang, I really like my semblance! I can go super fast when I use it! "Yang!"
"Ruby? I thought you were right behind me." Yang wasn't even breaking a sweat, I mean that's not unexpected, this was really easy. Other than that beowulf that showed up earlier this was just a normal run. "Where's Uncle Qrow?"
"He's with Yew. Yew is having a hard time running, I don't know why though, this is so easy." When I said that Yang looked a little mean. She's been looking like that whenever Yew is around ever since he showed up.
"He should be able to do this much right?" Yang was getting that look again, the one where she's really angry at something.
"Uncle Qrow said that Yew can't use his aura like us." Maybe Yang just doesn't know, like me. "Something about not having the same blood."
Yang only looked angrier now. Oh no, did I do something wrong? She was supposed to cheer up!
"Then why is he still here?" Oh, this again.
"Yang, he's family now! We're supposed to be nice to each other!" Why is Yang so angry that Yew is our cousin now? This was great! Our family got bigger!
"He is not family." Yang sounded like a snake when she said that. "He's just some kid who showed up out of nowhere and called himself our cousin!"
"Yang he was hurt!" Why is Yang being so mean!? "He didn't just call himself our cousin! He hasn't even said we're family yet! I want him to!"
Yang looked really angry now, but she didn't say anything, instead she just stayed quiet.
"Yang?" Something is wrong but I don't know what. "Are you ok?"
"I'm fine." She didn't say anything else and just kept running.
"I'm sorry if I did something wrong." Please don't be angry Yang.
"It's ok Ruby, you didn't do anything." Yang looked sad now.
"Are you sure you're ok Yang?"
"I'm fine, really Rubes." Yang is starting to look normal again! Yay!
Date: same day 9:00 AM (2 hours after Ruby and Yang's argument)
Yang P.O.V
I just don't get it. Why is he still here? Dad and Uncle Qrow both said they were trying to find his family, and now he's somehow part of ours? What the heck?
"You're not in bad shape kid, but your stamina could use some work." Uncle Qrow was talking to the same 'he' that I was talking about. "You could do with some more running, but other than that you're good though we're keeping it simple for now." How is he good? He wasn't able to do anything! He could only do like two sets!
"No, I'm not." Well at least he admits it. "I haven't worked out in a long time so I've gotten weaker."
"And just how much weaker are you now?" He can't have been too strong if he's this weak now.
"Just about two more of these, I was able to do five sets of twenty." He's lying! He has to be! There's no way he was as strong as me! "I stopped working out when I was told I needed to go to school and I didn't want to, so I spent all my time reading instead." Reading? Why would he do that? It's so boring!
"Why wouldn't you want to go to school?" Is Uncle Qrow really asking that? School is so boring! "You could make friends your age."
"Friends? Do I look like I could make friends?" He looked so weird, I couldn't tell if he was angry or sad. "Even when I hid it, people still didn't like me so of course not." Hid what?
"Right, sorry." Why does Uncle Qrow look all sad now? He didn't have friends and he's super weak! so that means he's a loser! Just tell him to go away already! "Forgot about that, but what do you mean people still don't like you? You seem like a cool enough kid." How is he cool? He's so dweeby!
"Try telling that to the, who knows how many people who hated me before." He looked really tired now, just how weak is he? We're only doing a cool down, he shouldn't be so tired already.
"Well you don't have to worry about that anymore, you're with us now." For now! Only for now! He'll leave soon, I know it!
"Haa* well either way we're done with all the exercise so let's get you all cleaned up." That's all we were doing today? I haven't even broken a sweat though! I want to do some fighting!
"Speaking of, I don't have any clothes to change into. What am I gonna wear?"
"We'll just wash the clothes you're wearing, for now you can wear some of my old stuff." Uncle Qrow was walking into the house when he was saying that. "You won't fit anything but they'll do until we can wash what you're wearing."
"Got it." The dweeb was following Uncle Qrow inside, ugh. That means we're not doing any fighting today.
"Come on Yang!" Ruby was pulling my arm. "While Uncle Qrow and Yew are doing boring school stuff, want to go play Huntress*!?" We always play 'Huntress' whenever Dad and Uncle Qrow are too busy to train us.
"Alright, but I get to be the Huntress this time, got it?"
"Sure!" What the heck? Usually Ruby always wants to be the Huntress whenever we play. What's going on?
"Alright, I'll count to ten and wait for you to hide."
"Just you watch Yang, I'll win for sure this time!"
A/n
So the things to address in the story that I feel like I should talk about
-The being able to heal only because it was when he unlocked his aura. I felt that the first time that a person uses their aura is like breaking a dam in Remnant, until you use your aura it just keeps building up until you either can't hold it, or your body needs it, and that unlocking one's aura is just flooding that dam with an outside source to break the dam. All the extra aura that was building up and flooding is used to heal any injuries taken, but also dispersed since the body wouldn't be able to handle so much at a time, meaning you can't have all the aura you "contained" when the 'dam' broke, and that the extra aura flooding you is why a user would heal like that.
I'll be using that explanation as why Jaune's semblance of "aura transfer" is able to heal the way it can, it's just a recreation of the "flooding dam" that causes aura users to heal the first time around. Since I haven't seen any aura users just suddenly heal mid combat or something like that, I like to think that the "you can use aura to heal yourself" thing is passive and only works to speed along the process. Thus explaining why aura users are not able to heal mid combat if they're injured.
-the 'Huntress' game that Ruby and Yang were going to play at the end. It's literally just another form of hide and seek, the "Huntress" finds the grim, 'kills' it and then the round is over.
Now to address something I feel like I should right now, for Yang being so out of character and not liking Yew so much. I felt that with it happening so close to her almost getting herself and Ruby killed she'll feel like she's being replaced because of that mistake, making her really not like Yew. As for her semblance of "she takes what happens to her and making her stronger" matching her personality, I like to think that there's also the added aspect of her irrational anger since it also happens when she gets too upset at something, like her hair being cut for example. So this happening, while "making her stronger" also really upsets her and makes her irrational.
P.s I wanted to make the chapter longer, but just couldn't think of a way to lengthen the chapter more without it feeling forced, or artificial. Or at least more artificial anyways since I'm sure that Yang acting like this feels so off, and Qrow might seem off too since I don't think he's the type to just take a random kid in. I apologize if anyone seems too out of character.
Please review and tell me if I am doing anything wrong or am doing anything wrong grammatically, while english is my first language, I'm not exactly the most literate of people.
