-Souma Uchiha's POV-

Ruby: "YOU'RE GOING TO SIGNAL ACADEMY NEXT YEAR! AMAZING AMAZING! YOU'RE SO COOL!"

I see Ruby jumping at me and I did a twirl with her as I see stars in her eyes...not going to lie, it feels good to be idolized by your sister.

Souma: "Ahahahah thanks Ruby, like you said your brother is the coolest! I'm one step closer being a Huntsman! AHAHAHAHA!"

I point my finger towards the ceiling while posing.

Yang: "Yet wear that ridiculous transformer onesie when you sleep (Author: He's wears a Bumblebee Onesie)"

Of course my loving sister have to ruin the moment. I turn to see Yang walking downstairs yawning while scratching her belly it seems that she took a bath just now as some part of her hair is still wet.

Yang: "I heard the commotion from upstairs, so Signal Academy huh? Gotta say bro, I'm both impress and not surprise."

She smile as she place her arm around me...I can smell the scent from her shampoo...I don't remember mom buying this brand.

Souma: "What makes you say that?"

She looks at me and place both her hands on her hip while smiling.

Yang: "You're like...ummm super strong compare to most kids, plus I heard from dad you beat up a student there who's a lot older than you."

Ruby: "YOU BEAT UP A STUDENT! SO COOOOOL!"

She says as she eats her cookies. I felt a sweat drop on the back of my head.

Souma: "Umm ok first I didn't beat anyone up, It was a friendly spar and I won. Second...isn't that my cookies."

Ruby suddenly jumps by my words and quickly hid the cookies behind her back. I see her sweating like a convicted felon.

Ruby: "Umm...I have no idea what you're talking about?"

Souma: "...*Stares*..."

Ruby then slowly hand me my bag of cookies...I look at it to see almost all of it gone.

Souma: "Ah well you can have the rest, I can bake some when mom comes back."

Ruby's eyes sparkles and leap for the bag and begin munching away. I turn to see dad talking to Uncle Qrow.

Qrow: "So Signal huh?...Can't say I'm surprise, plus with what Tai's been telling me I say your a prodigy alright."

I smile at his words, It's rare for him to compliment me.

Souma: "I'm more surprise to hear you say that."

He then took out his flask and begins drinking.

Qrow: "Well you beat Lily right? I'm her teacher, so yea plus I'm more interested in your fight against her if she uses her Semblance."

Her Semblance huh?...Now that I think of it, we merely fought hand-to-hand combat.

Souma: "What's her Semblance if you don't mind me asking?"

He grins and rubs my head

Qrow: "Sorry kiddo can't tell you that, by what I can tell you is that it's an annoying Semblance to face in combat be it ranged or close quarter."

Hmm...suddenly Lily pique my interest. I hear dad entering the living room after calling the principal.

Tai: "So I called the Principal hoping he didn't make any mistake, and to my surprise he was given a suggestion by James to enroll you in the academy due to you being gifted."

The General? Why did he do such a thing? I then see uncle Qrow beat to it.

Qrow: "Him...giving suggestion, there must be a catch and I doubt it's simply because he's gifted not that's anything wrong with it."

Souma: "He's right dad...does he want me to do something?"

I'm genuinely curious as to why the sudden recommendation. I dad closing his eyes while contemplating.

Tai: "I'll discuss this with your mother when she comes back but for now though, do you wish to enroll if yes then tomorrow I'll head to the academy to sort out the paperwork."

I turn to see Yang and Ruby looking away but I can tell both of them are listening in.

Souma: "Well...I am interested. But...what's the age requirement to enroll."

I see Uncle Qrow scratch his chin.

Qrow: "Well the age require is 13, the youngest to enrolled was 12...which means you'll be the youngest in history to enroll at the age of 7 starting next year."

I smile then Ruby hugs me pouting while Yang puts me in a headlock

Yang: "Damn...I have to wait for six years before I can enroll."

Ruby: "Awww! I want to enroll as well!"

I hug them back grinning

Souma: "Well then, you best train your butts off ahahahahaha!"

Tai: "Oh before I forget, the principal told me there's an available room for you to move in since there is a dormitory there."

The girls eyes turn white and look slightly panicky.

Souma: "A dorm?...Hmm, It will save us money than travelling there by ship everyday."

Ruby looks at me with tears in her eyes.

Ruby: "Souma! You're leaving!? You don't want stay with me anymore?"

Yang: "Umm, Rubes..I think you meant us."

I smile and gently pat her head.

Souma: "Nonsense Ruby, I'm your brother. I'll never leave you, I'm simply moving to a different place but I promise you that I'll visit during the weekend."

She looks at me with a slight doubt on her face.

Ruby: "Promise?"

I smile and extend my pinkie...seeing this she smile and did the same.

Souma: "Pinkie promise."

Qrow: "Well ain't that cute...quite a ladies man aren't you."

Ruby and I slightly blush and I quickly glare at him. Yang suddenly punch my arm.

Souma: "Oww! What's that for?"

Yang: "Where's my pinkie promise?"

Umm...I slowly show her my pinkie making her smile and she immediately did the same thing as Ruby...Ruby however looks slightly annoyed.

I can hear dad talking to himself.

Tai: "Something tells me my daughters will be taken by him..."

-Vale. Beacon Academy. Afternoon-

-A day after Souma had his Nightmare incident-

-Ozpin's POV-

I'm currently sorting out documents on the new students that have enroll in Beacon Academy...too many paperwork.

*Sip*

I take a sip of coffee from my mug as I look through the documents, that's when I heard a knock on my door.

*Knock Knock Knock*

I look towards the monitor to see standing outside the door. I buzzed her in awaiting her news.

Glynda: "Sir, General Ironwood has just arrive and request your audience."

I see he's here to update me with Souma's situation.

Ozpin: "Let him in, thank you that'll be all."

She bows and left my office, then after a few minutes I heard another knock on my door.

I look at my monitor to see General Ironwood and two Atlas guard, he's ordering his men to stay and guard outside my office...I wish he didn't bring his men here.

I buzz James in and he smiles as he saw me.

James: "Professor Ozpin, it's been too long."

I shook his hand as I guide him to his seat. I walk towards my chair and sit on it, James does the same and sits in front of me.

Ozpin: "Come now James, I've told you numerous time to not stand in ceremonial with me."

He laughs and nod.

James: "Sorry Ozpin, anyways how are you?"

I shrug and take a sip of my coffee

Ozpin: "The same as always, new students, potential Grimm attack, planning how to deal with the Queen."

He smiles and hand me his documents that he was holding.

James: "Here take a look at this, this is from last week data retrieval from the ruins."

I look through the documents to see familiar symbols and statues that I saw during my last visit with Summer and Qrow. However one of the document struck me.

A picture of a journal.

James: "I see the journal have pique your interest, you see something interesting happen yesterday."

I close my hands together and listen to him.

Ozpin: "Oh...do tell."

He point to the document I'm holding.

James: "Yesterday I went to Signal Academy to visit Souma and Tai. I told Tai I found something interesting and requested that he come and visit me."

I look at him then look at the picture, I see the Uchiha clan symbol on the front of it.

Ozpin: "Then I assumed you call for them to meet with you is because you found something of interest in the document."

He sat there quietly.

James: "Yes. The journal state something of interest regarding a certain fairy tale."

My eyes dilate by his words.

Ozpin: "And the this tale...would it happens to be about 4 maidens."

He nods and look serious.

James: "Here I brought a copy the copy of the journal."

A copy?

Ozpin: "Where's the original?"

James: "It's with Souma since he requested it hoping to shed some light onto his origins, I asked Tai to keep an eye out on him if he discovered anything new."

I flip through the pages and recognized one of the symbol...Maidens.

James: "It seems the clans are more what they seem."

I place my hand on my chin contemplating

Ozpin: "Clans...there's more than one."

He nods and continue.

James: "So far from what Souma told us was that there were five clans, The Uchiha which is Souma's clan, The Senju who are a rival clan to the Uchiha and were at war once upon a time. Then there are three unknown clans that took part in that war and to which side they took is yet to be discovered."

I frowned when I heard this...a war. What bothers me the most is that I have no recollection of these clans despite my years in this world.

Ozpin: "Anything else?"

James shrug and shook his head.

James: "Other than that not much except that Souma stated the Journal also contain information of a death of a family."

A death of a family.

Ozpin: "I take it he didn't tell you."

He smile and scratch his head.

James: "Nope, he told me that's as far he could translate. However Tai and I knew he was lying but we didn't want to push him."

I nod and smile.

Ozpin: "That was for the best as of now there's way to many questions that need to be answered, we have to be delicate about this James, by now the Queen probably knows about this and is planing her next moves...I'm afraid our young friend is in danger."

I see James standing up and walks towards the window there he sees students laughing, talking and enjoying the peace they're having despite the dangers looming.

James: "Indeed Ozpin, I'm aware of that which is why I've decided to enroll Souma in Signal Academy under recommendation. There he'll be place in a dorm under our protection, we'll keep an eye on him."

Hmm, cunning as ever.

Ozpin: "I see, does Summer knows about this?"

He shook his head.

James: "No, I'll informed them once I've settled with Vacuo."

His words caught me off guard.

Ozpin: "Vacuo?...What did they do now?"

He groan slightly thinking back the troubles he have to deal with.

James: "Ever since we've discovered the remains of their fallen soldiers they've been rather fickle when it comes to direct questions as to why they were there in the first place without Vale's permission. Their Council have been secretive about it, and to be honest I don't like it...I think they know something Ozpin."

I adjust my glasses and look at him.

Ozpin: "I see...then by now they should know about Souma."

James: "Yes they are aware about Souma and yet to do anything about since Atlas is keeping an eye on them...but sooner or later, they'll do something."

I sigh...really now.

James: "Anyways, I better head back to Atlas. Jacques been pestering me about some Faunus demonstration outside his company. That man might do something reckless so I best be off, It's good to see you again Ozpin. I'll talk to you later if there's any update."

I smile and walk towards him and shook his hand.

Ozpin: "Yes thank you, do visit again. Beacon Academy is always open to you."

He smile and left the room...after he left I immediately walk towards the desk and contact to enter my office.

After a few minutes, she enters.

Glynda: "You've called sir?"

I smile and look at her.

Ozpin: "Yes, I've a mission for you . It is of great importance.

She was surprise by my words...I look at the copy of the Journal James left behind...Maidens...Souma, what were clan involve with?
