AN: I Really liked how a certain character i typed out came out. I Know its not what you probably expected but enjoy and tell me what you think. Cause i really like what i did here since its something i dont see done often.


Schnee manor was just as grand as the capitol it resided in. The building was a shimmering white and built into a mountain overlooking most of the Atlas capitol. A perimeter fence towered up high around and guards walked about carrying rifles and wearing White business suite's somehow shrugging off the cold. Inside all manor of expensive artifacts lined the manor walls. Yet despite it's sheer size the manor was almost devoid of life. The hall's remained vacant and the pleasant items were just as empty. At the moment only one room contained any occupants. A large dining room to be exact. Where a long dining room table sat in the middle upon it a feast for kings was laid out. At one end Lord Schnee sat. His bushy mustache shook as he laughed at the story of the young man across the table from him and his daughter.

"Hahah what an exciting story! Wouldn't you agree Weiss?" His smile turned to a frown as he saw his daughter meekly poking at her food. It made him mad to see his daughter so beautiful in a lovely dress. She was the very symbol of elegance and grace yet she didn't even pretend to be interested in the world he wished her to be in. "Weiss" His voice was stern as he called his daughter's attention from whatever foolish fantasy world she was in. It worked and her gaze fixed on his. Her eyes were ice cold and showed only hatred as they landed upon him.

"Yes father" There was venom in her words and if he was a lesser man he would have done something. But as of the moment he would let it slide.

"The boy's story don't you find it marvelous?!" He smiled happily at her but anyone with an idea of the inner workings of this family would know better. She looked at the man as if seeing the guest for the first time she finally answered her words slow and devoid of any emotion.

"Charming... If you will excuse me I do believe I may have eaten something bad. I will turn in for the night." With a bow she stood and left. Nothing on her plate had been touched and Lord Schnee sighed softly as he saw the thin figure of his daugther leave the room. 'I wish you would at least eat my dear daughter'

-HA-

Weiss walked silently down the empty hall ways of the mansion. Her heels clicked against the polished tile floors. The echo that sounded through the halls only served to remind her how alone she was here. She desperately missed the sound of students laughing and playing together in the halls of Beacon. As she walked into her room she sighed and looked at her grand bed. It was large enough for her whole team to fit on plus team JNPR yet as large as it was. It only furthered the lonely feeling. She would kill for her small bed again under the hazard that was Ruby's bed.

"Ruby..." She looked at her scroll from Beacon. It remained dormant on her bed unused since the night before when she had called Ruby as she did every night. There was never an answer of course and the inbox was filled long before they had split but she still left messeges. Holding onto the fleeting hope Vale would have their CCT rebuilt and she could contact her friends again.

She slowly grabbed her scroll and sat down. Just as she was about to click it to life it buzzed violently in her hands as a call came in. Surprised she dropped the device like it was fire and stared surprised as it opened up and the name Ruby Rose appeared across the screen. Slowly she got down on her knees and picked up her device her finger hovering over the answer button.

-HA-

Lord Schnee sat in his office with a tired look on his face, Everyone but he had retired for the night as far as he knew. He couldn't focus on the reports before him. Running a business was hard and taxing and despite what his daughter thought he didn't act the way he did cause he was cold and heartless but because he couldn't afford to make a mistake.

One wrong file to one wrong person could lead to a huge almost absurd manor of problems that would leave him homeless and forgotten and with him his family. Thus he had to take a brake from his tireless reading and scribbles. He took off his glasses and gently gelled his hair back. He could practically feel the animosity Weiss directed at him since she got home.

"I'm only trying to protect her." He looked to a portrait on his wall. In it stood a much younger version of himself holding the hands of his two daughters. They were all smiling happily. He smiled fondly at the memories of their youth when they still loved him. Then he looked to the face of his passed wife. She looked so happy. She practically was radiant. Her arms were wrapped around his waist and her lovely black hair splayed along his neck. He remembered trying not to laugh as she purposefully tickled his sides and blew on his ear. Those day's were gone though. His queen was gone now. And his daughters loathed him.

He felt a wet tear slowly role down his cheek and he rested his head in his palms as tears slowly began to flow. His body slowly racked and shivered as he muttered the irony of it all under his breath. He had all the power he could dream. He had had a happy life and now at the peak of his power, at the peak of it all. He was alone. He was just a man standing upon a cold lonely mountain peak. Isolated from the world and those he loved. And he stayed in his office crying for a while longer as he did most nights. As was the life of the great and powerful lord Schnee.


AN: SInce we don't know Weiss' father's name i just kept referring to him as Lord Schnee in this and at home i just call him Papa Schnee. So what did you think? Is it a good portrayal. I've only written from Weiss' perspective once and never before have i done anything involving Papa Schnee. So please give me your thoughts and opinions.
