Quick Disclaimer, these are a bunch of short muses, and I've already got a lot of them done. Since it's something I've been doing for a while on my Ao3 and Tumblr.

In the mean time, in the backyard of an inconspicuous house in Argus. A young girl, with hair as vibrant as a roaring fire, and eyes so beautiful that they put any emerald to shame, stood firm. A shield in one hand, a javelin in the other, before her a mountain of a man. His hair as vibrant as her own and his eyes, while faded still shown with determination.

"We'll begin now, are you ready?" His voice, powerful like a storm bellowing through a canyon.

The only response he received was a nod. What happened next was a series of practiced moves, all excecated with precision that came with practice. Her body shifted forward, and in an instant she was already upon the large man. His body however, remained stationary, her right arm struck forward. Jabbing at the core of his being, hoping to strike him off balance.

However, her hopes were dashed, when her thrust was parried, the wooden blade shifted to her left causing her to fall off balance. On the opposing side, a wooden sword slide down the length of the javelin, striking her with enough force to cause her to stumble backwards, but not enough to cause any serious damage.

There was a moment of pause, as she managed to stop her tumble, her breath ragged, this was the 10th time they'd done the same steps. This was the best she'd done so far, every other time she would have fallen flat on her butt. For what felt like an eternity she stared at the man, emeralds reflecting against one another.

Finally, it was he that broke the excruciating silence. "WELL DONE MY DAUGHTER!" A joyous laughter echoed from his belly to the world around, crushing the silence.

A soft smile crept upon the young girls lips, and a sigh of relief escaped her mouth. "Thank you father."

The giant of a man paused, his smile faltered as he stared down upon his daughter. Gently he walked forward and wrapped her in a hug. For as long as he could remember, his daughter had always been polite, not one to wear her emotions on her sleeves. This had, unfortunately caused issue with the other children. They'd seen her as too stoic, too concentrated on improving, she had found it difficult to make friends.

Though he understood his daughter, he cherished her after all, she just was unsure of herself. There admittedly would be no child her age that could compete with her abilities and athleticism, but when it came to matters of the heart and emotions she was lost. Both himself, and his wife tried their best to support her, and rather than forcer her into something she'd hate, they chose to train her. She loved the thrill of the fight, and moving her body, so they let her.

"I love you, Pyrrha." He said warmly, a gentle smile on his face as he embraced his daughter, who returned the embrace in full force.

"I love you too... dad."

He smiled, she was a young woman after all, he was sure one day she'd find people that would understand and love her for who she was. Till then, he'd continue training her, continuing being her dad, her confidant. Him and his wife would always love their daughter.

"Soon, I'm sure you'll find people who will care for you. Those brats out there? They mean nothing, okay?"

Tears formed on the sides of her eyes, she was lonely after all, she wanted to make friends but she just didn't know how. "I hope you're right."

"I know I am, and they'll be wonderful, just you watch."


Back at the Arc household, it had been a few weeks since Ren and Nora had shown up.

The duo had begun to settle in, today was training day and everyone was getting ready when suddenly Jaune, Nora, and Ren all sneezed simultaneously.

"What are you three doing!? Training's going to start, lets go!" The echoed voices of Indy and Goa, the twin sisters of the Arc house hold, caused the trio to break from their strange sense of yearning.

"That was weird! Right, right well let's go Jauney, Renny." Nora said, a small smile on her face, as she dragged a large wooden Mallet.

Both Ren and Jaune gave one another a look, and shrugged. Today was the day their future started after all.
