A.N. Part 1 of explaining Rory's past.
Welp, finding out he gained a daughter was not how Rory was expecting this week to pan out. When Watts told him that he hadn't named the girl yet, Rory ended up naming her Metis from the Persona game series. She kinda looked like a child version too, with the Rory black hair and the Grimm red eyes.
It was late at night, and the four of them were in the hotel room Rory got them. Watts and Metis were sleeping currently, leaving Cinder and Rory awake.
"Hey, Rory." Cinder tugged at his sleeve.
"Yes, Princess?"
"What did Watts mean when he said that there was a precedence. And why did he think your DNA would help Metis?"
Rory was silent for a moment. Slowly, he started to take off his shirt. Revealing the bandages underneath, Cinder watched as Rory slowly removed the coverings.
Cinder gasped once part of the bandages were removed. Where skin should have been, Cinder only saw patches of what looked like Grimm flesh. The flesh seemed to unnaturally fuse with Rory, filling up a hole where his heart is supposed to be.
A white number [8] stood out and covered the Grimm flesh. Seeing Cinder's reaction, Rory smiled as he spoke.
