A/NThis fic is a self insert for the RWBY universe. It is also the first story I've written in a very long time so ill take any constructive criticism given. This chapter is a short one, i will attempt to make them longer as I continue writing. Also as some characters may be ooc i will try to keep them in character as much as possible but will change some of them a small bit to fit changes to cannon i may be making. The first couple of chapters will be short due to me sucking at the start of stories so I ask you all to give it a chance, please.

Prologue
The scent of rain, anger rising as I lose myself to the darkness. A split-second is all it took for a mess up to ruin my day. Running to her I ready my spear, going for a thrust into her gut to end it, to end it all. Darkness clouds my vision, feeling the cold embrace of the darkness I step into my thrust. Suddenly the world tilts as my body lurches to the side, searing pain in my gut as the darkness clears from me. A puddle is how this life will end, the pain in my stomach grows. A gasp escapes my lips as I fall, I feel darkness wrap around me. Suddenly I'm falling into something hard, I hear a gasp and suddenly two female voices are shouting as I black out. This time a different type of darkness claims me.
"Helllloooo wolfy boy are you upppp" a voice whisper shouts from somewhere in the room I am in, waking me up.
A low groan comes from my throat as my eyes open and are assaulted by a blinding light. A quick look around lets me know I am in an unknown room, a few pictures showing a set of girls one is an older blond the other younger with a dark red almost black head of hair. The most noticeable features of them being a massive chest size on the older and piercing silver eyes on the younger. Both of them being easy on the eyes for my own taste.
"Um hello Remnant to wolfy boy" the voice comes again this time louder as well as closer to me. An edge of irritation starting to sleep through.
I look over and see the older girl from the pictures walking closer to me, a slight twitch of her eyes show her irritation at me not having answered her the first time. Which given the situation I am in, seems rude of her. I mean here I am in a strange new place having woken up from getting my guts almost cut out of me. My eyes widen as I quickly pull my shirt off to look down at my stomach, causing a massive amount of pain to lance through my body. The feeling almost causing me to heave the contents of my stomach onto the floor.
"Well well well if it was THAT type of party I would have taken mine off as well" the blond winks at me before laughing at her own joke. "If your wondering why you aren't dead right now well it seems your aura healed you up nicely. Although it seems your going to be suffering from internal pain for a while." I groan in response and look back up at her, noticing her lavender eyes boring into my own. "Now tell me what is a mercenary like you doing shooting through a portal, into a home with two sweet innocent girls?" The near shit eating grin that graced her face betrayed her teasing nature.
"Well first off can I ask how it is that you know I'm a mercenary?" A slight tilt of her head is all the response I was given for a few minutes before her grin somehow grew even wider. Something about it seemingly familiar to me. "Wait is your father Tai?" The nodding of her head gave me the answer I was looking for.
"Yep he's spoken about you more than a few times in the last few months, mostly complaining how you're taking his spotlight on missions. Speaking of which I should thank you for. But the fact you came barreling through some weird shadow portal and into our kitchen table makes me a bit irritated at you". A flash of red shot through her eyes as she finished walking to the bedside and took her place in front of me. Which gave me a very nice look at her figure. Shaking my head I look back up at her to answer.
"Well sorry about that it wasn't my intention to fall through something but it's kind of hard to control where I'm going when I'm worried about my guts flying out". A shrug from her is all the response I got before she stepped back and held out a hand. Taking it I make to stand up only to fall back onto the bed as pain ran through my stomach once again. "So uh hate to ask this but do you have anything for pain? A cream maybe, i don't do pills."
"Well lucky for you, I sent my sister to get some at the store, although she might spend a little bit longer doing so than she normally would. The sight of your injuries really messed her up...it's her first time seeing injuries like that. She was too young to ever see any of dads or moms."
The mention of her father brought to mind a question, where exactly was he. As far as I knew from local gossip, the man never left his kids alone unless their uncle was around to watch them. Or rather the uncle would sleep and be babysat by the girls, his drunkard ways were infamous in patch. "So where is your dad? I wasn't aware of any bounties posted in town and last I heard any bandits had been ran away by the other hunters actions and some of my own." It seemed I hit a sore subject, if her slight flinch was any indication.
"He is currently of on some month long secret mission type thing with our uncle, oh boy is he going to get a kick out of this when I tell him" her grin takes on a devious tone as she puts her hands behind her back and sways side to side acting in an innocent way. "His daughters playing nurse to a big bad mercenary while daddy is away" she winks as a slight chuckle escapes my lips.
Obviously trying to take this piss out of me I slowly stand up, grunting as the pain comes once again. "Oh really now, if your my nurse then how about a physical" winking back at her I make a move to walk but end up stumbling back onto the bed. "Hey nurse wana help me walk to the bathroom? I gotta take a big pi-"
"Ok that's enough, let's get you up" she cuts off and leans down allowing me to brace on her. "C'mon mama yang will help you. Also, why is your skin still as cold as ice? Earlier I thought it was just due to the shock from your injury but now I'm not so sure, is it some type of semblance thing"
Nodding I brace onto her as we walk to where I assumed the bathroom was, each step as painful as the last. "I have the ability to control shadows, it is a pretty bullshit semblance I've been told." At her questioning look I chuckle softly and continue. "So basically I take shadows and turn them into a physical form, allowing me to make them anything and everything I want to. For instance if I wanted to I could create a sword or a spear and everything in-between. But that's just at the base level. I can do a lot more but that's not something I want to talk about at this moment." A nod from her was the only response from her as we reach a restroom. She walks me inside then starts to walk out allowing me some privacy. Before the door closes fully I let her know I'm going to take a shower to wash some of the blood off myself from the wound.
Stripping down I examine myself in the mirror, aqua eyes looked back out from under a medium length of unruly red hair My gaze travels upwards to the pair of wolf like ears as they twitch from the cold air of the bathroom. "Well time to see exactly how bad this wound is...still I wonder who that girl was and why she wanted to kill me so badly. Guess I've made one to many people mad at me." With a shrug I look down at the cut along my stomach, still decently red showing my aura had yet to finish healing it. in a few days time hopefully itll be healed. Maybe I can shack up here for a while, not like I have anyone at home waiting on me. Plus that woman might know where I live, and I'm in no condition to fight. With a sigh I turn the shower on and make to step in. A sound almost like a sonic boom causes me to stop and look back at the door right as it opens.
"Gotta pee gotta pee gotta- akc naked man!" the second girl from the pictures squawks out and tries to stop as a shower of rose petals blast in from behind her. A blush creeps up her face as she looks up at me with wide eyes then she quickly runs out at a speed even I couldn't keep up with.
"Ruby didn't dad teach you to see if anyone is in the bathroom before super speeding into one" Yang yells from somewhere else in the house before yelling an apology to me. Shaking my head I lock the door back and step back into the shower. Seems as if I'm in for a crazy time, and it seems Tai was right about his crazy daughters. I need to remind myself to buy him a drink next time we are paired up on a bounty or mission. Turning on the hot water to the shower I close my eyes and relax as the hot water washes over me. It seems my next few days will be interesting if these girls are as crazy as I believe.
