It was a warm Summer morning and our Protagonist Crimson Rose was walking through the forest with his white cloak flapping in the wind.
The boy was completely silent but made sure to check his surroundings for any surprises. It's been a full year when he last visited Mistral. And after a while he recently found out why Pyrrha asked him that strange question about her being famous and them staying friends.
"hhmm, Pyrrha Nikos the three time Champion" Crimson said silently before he chuckled and shook his head.
Crimson changed his clothes through the year finding what he is wearing now is more comfortable and helps with fighting a lot.
First was a pair of black steel toed boots. With black cargo pants which had a belt around it with his signature of a flaming rose. a few pouches rested on his hip along with a holster which held a normal looking P250.
On top was a black long sleeve shirt with a symbol of a grey flaming Rose on the right of his chest. A pair of black armored gloves and finally a familiar white cloak sitting on top of it all, hiding everything underneath with the hood up.
Crimson continued to be silent before he started to hum a tune which his mom always sang to him before he went to bed. The teen paused when he felt something tugging at his heart. looking around the boy's silver eyes landed on a Nevermore but it was currently circling the area, as if it was hunting something.
With his curiosity peaked the boy ran towards where the Nevermore was circling while reaching into his cloak and pulled out an Axe which had a few symbols on the head of it with it having a gold trim on the outside while the handle of the Axe was an light orange.
The weapon in Crimson's hand glowed a light blue which started to frost over the head of the axe but this didn't bother Crimson, that was normal to him and it didn't decrease his combat efficiency, it increased it. This is a weapon of mass destruction... of course that's what the two people who crafted it said.

Crimson was a bit skeptical about the weapon at first but after testing, it was love at first sight. The blacksmiths were happy that the teen enjoyed the weapon saying how too many kids have all these hybrid weapons which to Crimson was just a bunch of problems waiting to happen.
But this Axe was special. The duo said it themselves and Crimson believed them. But sadly the weapon wasn't for sale. Crimson was about to pick another weapon but one of the smiths decided to ask him a question.
"Why do you want this weapon, what will use it for?" Crimson paused and had a thoughtful expression on his face.
"If I could, I would use this weapon to help those I care for while also protecting the innocent, but sometimes being the good guys is always the answer to achieve for what is right." The two brothers looked at each other and nodded their head thinking that this boy was the one they were looking for.
"squirt, we want you to keep that weapon, no need to pay us, but I would like to propose a deal" Crimson was suprised but nodded his.
"Come back to us in about eh, year or two and show us with what you can do with that weapon of ours, if you impress us, me and my brother will make a little something for you" The small man said holding his hand out.
"deal" Crimson said shaking his hand while the other brother cringed and gaged a bit at the unsanitary of the handshake.
"Also kid... where is your Arua?" There was silence. The man groaned and shook his head. "Alright kid come here, I think I remember how the ritual goes, don't want you dying on us all because you didn't have Arua" Crimson scratched the back of his head with a sheepish look on his face.

Crimson was snapped back to attention when the sounds of something crying out in pain caught his attention. It didn't sound human, so it was probably a animal.
Crimson rushed forward before jumping up and landing on a large sturdy tree branch. His eyes looked around before a large shadow covered the area.
The child took notice of a small cave in the side of a mountain. But it was something inside that caught his attention. It was a baby Beowolf huddled up inside. Outside the cave were a bunch of dead Beowulf's.
Crimson spotted the Alpha off to the side still alive but slowly dying. looking up in the sky he saw the Nevermore leaving the area which allowed him to step out in the open.
The Alpha saw him and growled. It tried to move but fell to the floor with a thud. Crimson raised and eyebrow and pulled out his axe, Leviathan before walking towards the Alpha completely forgetting about the baby inside the cave which was watching Crimson.
The boy stood infront of the Alpha which continued to glare at him but flinched when Crimson lifted his axe ready to bring the weapon down.
Tug*
Crimson paused and looked down behind him to see the Baby beowulf pulling on his cloak while growling at him.
Crimson stepped back wanting to see what it will do. He watched at the baby stepped infront of the Alpha and did a cute little growl.
Looking at the Alpha Beowulf then at the baby he imagined himself in the baby's position. Protecting their family, like how he would protect Ruby from bullys or like how Yang would protect them when he can't.
Then the face of Summer flashed across Crimson's head.
"Mom" The boy quietly said before looking at the two Beowulfs. He lowered his axe then put it away. The two Grimm watch curiously as Crimson pulled out a bag of meat and set it down infront of them.
His silver eyes looked up at them before he spun around and started walking away.
*Line Break Line Break Line Break Line Break*
As the Beowulfs watched the human walk away the Baby turned to looking at their Alpha.
"Are you ok, Law?" A young female voice said which came from the baby beowulf. The Alpha named Law growled and looked at the large claw wound in their sides.
"No... no I'm not" A rough male voice said in a raggedy voice. The Alpha coughed up some black blood before looking at the small Grimm. "I think it's time for you to leave pup" the baby jumped and ran up to the Alpha.
"W-what do you mean your coming, right?" The female said worried for her pack leader that she looked up too.
The Older Grimm shook his head and looked down at his wounds.
"I don't have long before I die of blood loss" Law said in a monoton voice not scared knowing he is dieing. "So with that said, I'm asking you to leave and run as fast as you can" Law said but was silenced by the other Grimm.
"NO! I'M NOT LEAVING YOU!" The female shouted slamming her small paws against the older Grimm. "I don't want to leave you! Your the only thing I got left" The female cried while the Alpha stayed silent.
"pup... what was the first rule about making connections?" The female sniffles but answered knowing it already.
"To not too" Law nodded. He felt the strength leaving his body and decided to lay down.
"There is a reason I made that rule... we all die eventually and it hurts to make connections with others only because we lose them right after" Law said while the female stayed silent. "It's the reason why you don't have a name yet... I was going to give you one when the time was right"
The Duo stayed silent before the baby whispered out quietly while tears streamed down her mask.
"I love you." Law was silent as his eyes slowly closed but he didn't want to leave her like that so with a much strength as possible he looked at the baby female Beowulf.
"And I love you, my little Pup, Now run free, make your own pack, become something greater, find... your... destiny" And with those final words Law closed his eyes and stopped moving.
The baby looked at her Alpha's body and cried. She sat there for who know how long. She didn't want to move, she didn't want to leave them.
After a while her stomach growled casuing the Beowulf to look down at her stomach before looking behind her at the pack of meat the human gave before leaving.
The female looked at the pack of meat before looking up at the forest. The face of the human flashed through her head. For some reason she felt a strange connection with that Human.
"He looked just like her" The Beowulf said quietly remembering a face she saw a few years ago, but it was blurry to make out any details but the only thing that came to mind were a pair to Silver eyes."Maybe this is what Law was talking about, maybe my destiny is with that human" Looking at Law's body she felt determined to find this human. "I won't let you down, Law... I promise"
After eatting the meat the female quickly set out to find the human with the white cloak and axe, leaving behind her past and not looking back... just like how Law would want it.
