Sup guys? Lighting Wolf here, back with another story, this one about RWBY. Enjoy the 800-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth do.

The SDC was a massive giant when it came to being a company. They were people who could run the world if they very much pleased to do so.

The 19-year-old Willow Schnee followed the rules of the company though and walked with a cadre of guards as she entered the manor office.

"Willow!" She turned and looked before at her father and smiled.

"Yes, dad?" She asked, rocking back and forth on her heels while her father stalked up to her and her guards.

Willow Schnee looked at the face of the imposing Nicholas Schnee, the leader of the SDC, formed during the earliest years of Mantle.

"You're not studying, are you?" He asked, Willow shrugged and then summoned a small glyph in her hand.

"I know how to create glyphs, dad… It's the family semblance." Willow said, Nicholas looked at her guards who scattered before the elder Schnee.

Willow was not someone easily moved, most people regarded the young Schnee as a princess. She knew it wasn't far from the truth, most people considered the growing SDC to be itself a kingdom.

"You know you need to study more… You're the face of the company… Not just me." He said and Willow sighed and looked to the side.

Nicholas sighed and slowly leaned down to his daughter's level.

"You know as much as I do that, I care about you. I never allow you to stop having fun. I only ask that you try, my little snowflake." He said and then rose to his feet.

"You fought in the war, you're the one teaching me to fight, dad… A Schnee isn't just a warrior, you said? We also lead? I'm ready to lead, you know that." Willow said, Nicholas sighed again.

He had been able to slaughter Grimm left and right and lead a damned kingdom… But being a father? He wondered if fighting a leviathan again would be preferable.

"Klein will see you to your room. We are going to diner later." He said and started to walk away; Willow sighed.

"Mom isn't going, is she?" Willow asked, Nicholas turned to look at his daughter.

"I don't know… She recently got back from her days on the council… You know she used to be in the war… My health isn't what it used to be…" He stated, she sighed and looked to the side.

Their topic of interest was Persia Schnee, the only woman in all of Mantle able to talk down Nicholas, even when the man was in full armor.

She was also another member of the newly formed council, the biggest reason her parents weren't around much.

"I know your health is starting to hurt. You've coughed around the people at dinner. You need to see a doctor." Willow said, her father left the hallway.

She shook her head and turned only to be knocked to the ground with a shriek.

"KLEIN! YOU SCARED ME HALF TO DEATH!" She yelled while the man chuckled.

"I am sorry, Lady Schnee. I didn't expect you to turn around and heard me." He said with a very warm smile.

Klein Sieben was a friend of Nicholas. She didn't know many people who could be silly one moment and then ready to use his custom brass knuckle/smg Kolt to bash in someone's face.

Then again, he was the butler, Willow sighed and huffed, she summoned a glyph under her.

Klein stepped back as Willow flipped to her feet and brushed off her purple jacket.

"Very funny." She said before she slowly broke into a smile and patted him on the shoulder.

"I'll be in my room, Sieben." He said, Klein rolled his eyes with amusement.

"Uncle Klein, Willow. Your father acts like I'm his brother with how I served as one of his lieutenants… Then again, your mother could kick his ass if she went all out." The brown-haired men said, styling back his unkept brown hair.

"Ok, UNCLE Klein…" Willow said and with a smirk, she was off to her room.

Klein could only watch her with amusement and then he turned and walked away.

"From special forces to babysitter." He said with a smirk.

Little did he and Willow know tonight would change the young Schnee.

Author Notes

Phew, first chapter done! I want to point out this is set before RWBY, it is an AU and it will show a different Willow Schnee. I will introduce Weiss and Winter possibly. I wanted to write Willow as being a troublemaker and somewhat of a partier. Next chapter will be on Sunday or so and will show Willow meeting the other protagonist of the story. Until then, Lighting Wolf out!

Ps: I set up a Star Wars poll and Jasper's story for Steven is a sequel to Blue Diamond's.
