The Airship was full of potential, With one person who skipped two years, Another who was a brawler who likes to party too much. Even a teen who may have forged his way into beacon. But someone stood out of the croud, It was him, Not paying attention to those around him as he was now wearing a Leather Jacket with a hood. He was contemplating the events that got him there in the first place.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Week Before~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"So you hide a little maiden in your basement?" The man asked as Ozpin took another sip from his Coffee. "In lamen's terms. Yes," Ozpin replied as he set his coffee mug on the table and took a deep breath. "I think you would be useful in keeping her safe."

"What's in it for me and what makes you think I'm interested?" The man asked as he leaned in. "I know you're interested because you could've left anytime. You know you don't have handcuffs, And there's no one preventing you from leaving," Ozpin stated as he took another sip. "Also, I can give you the right to leave school grounds whenever you please, Plus a room to sleep in, and plenty Lien for the nearby night club."

The man thought about this. He looked deep in thought. He eventually sighed "Get me a new jacket and we have a deal." He said. Ozpin smirked at that response. "You'll need a scroll," Ozpin said "And a name."

"Alfred. Just call me Alfred." the man now known as Alfred said. "Is that your name?" Ozpin asked to which Alfred replied getting up. " A name's a name, it doesn't matter if it's mine or not, Just use it."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Airship to Beacon ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The man now known as Alfred stood on the airship looking off into the distance. staring at nothing in particular. Wondering if he made the right decision to even come here in the first place. He heard some commotion somewhere else. He didn't care in the least though... Even if he could smell vomit. As far as he cared. He was just going to protect someone and that was it. Eventually the ship landed, he got off and noticed a few familiar faces. The girl in the red hood and Yang also getting off the ship. They didn't notice him yet, He did see that the girl in red was freaking out over something. Again, He didn't care. All he cared about was doing his job here.

Moments later, HE heard an explosion. He looked over and saw that there was a girl whose luggage was knocked over wearing a white dress. He decided to see how it would unfold. Standing to the side and leaning on a wall as he listened closely. putting his hand in his jacket pocket to pull out and hold the item in his hand. With a small hint of sadness in his eyes. He looked up to see the girl in White was stomping off away from the situation. To which he took his hand out of his pocket. However this didn't go unnoticed.

"What's in your pocket?" A girl asked. She had a black bow on her head with long flowing hair, she wore what appeared to be a white blouse with a small black jacket that looked more like a corset mixed with a tuxedo jacket. She was also wearing white pants that were covered in thigh high socks that was both black and a dark purple towards the her high heels. "A broken memory." He replied as he crossed his arms. "I see... Sorry to disturb you." She said as she wondered off. Alfred could tell something was different about her. That she was somewhat shy and she doesn't exactly like conversation that much. Something he can relate too all too much.

He walked inside of Beacon to look for Ozpin, It wasn't hard because Ozpin made a speech to the new students there. Alfred waited till he was done with his speech and he went to talk to him about what exactly he was supposed to do there.

"I was wondering when you'd show up Alfred." Ozpin inquired as Alfred approached him. "Didn't think you'd miss me that much." Alfred retorted. Ozpin had a small chuckle at that. "I'm assuming you're here to talk about your position here." Ozpin said. "Was that obvious, I know I'm here to protect your little secret, But I'm no teacher." Alfred said, slightly annoyed. "I thought about this, I figured you would do good as a Security Guard, Making sure Students don't go where they're not supposed to go." Ozpin replied as he handed Alfred a Security badge which Alfred hesitantly accepted, Sighed and walked away, mumbling something about how that asshole's always got a plan.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Hours Later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's been a while since the last encounter with Ozpin, He walked around the campus for a while, Getting a feel of the area as the students we're gonna sleep in the main hall, Which he was on his way there so he could attempt to get rest. He knows he probably won't sleep. He hasn't slept in years. But then he heard some more yelling from inside. He took a peak and sure enough, The girl with White Hair was yelling at the Red hooded one again. He thought about it for a moment. Before he decided to intervene. He walked over to them. "Is there a problem here?" He asked to which Yang immediately reacted. Alfred looked at her before she said anything. Making her backdown quickly. "Yes sir, There is a problem. These two won't stop making noise." The girl in white said. He knew these type of people, And he knew exactly how to deal with them. "I see. What's your name?" He asked her to which she explained it was Weiss Schnee and how he should've knew that already. Alfred Sighed "Weiss I need to speak with you privately." he said as Weiss was noticably upset but complied nonetheless.

once they were out of sight. Ruby admitted to Yang that he was there when she met Ozpin. To which Yang told her what he did in the club when she met him. Meanwhile. Alfred took Weiss to a location he deemed suitable before ripping into her. "Listen you little runt. I don't give a flying fuck who you are or who you think you are, Too me, you're nothing but an entitled brat whose life is gonna be shit once she's out of here. Those are decent people out there. I would suggest you have them as allies then enemies. Because at this rate, the allies that will gain will abandon you, leaving life the opportunity to chew you up and spit you out a broken, beaten mess. Begging to have a second chance. So if I were you. I'd be a little nicer. Now get the fuck out of my sight." He said. To which she complied quickly. GOing to the main hall and straight to her sleeping bag.

I'm not gonna lie. This was really fucking hard to write. Mainly because of the fact that I had trouble keeping it dark. And I kept getting hit with Writer's block a bit throughout the week. BUt I did finish this... THen I decided to update it because I didn't have any internet by the time I wanted to upload it. This would usually leave me to a rant on How my internet provider fucked up but I was just happy to be given the chance to edit it. Also. I feel bad for Nora.
