Chapter 3

5 years later

Following after a now twelve years old Loki, Ozpin now had grey hair with his young appearance despite his unknown age, ducking under a branch as he followed the excited twelve year old the two were within the parts of Emerald Forest close to Beacon, where most Grimm stayed away from.

"Now hold on Loki, whatever your planning to show me will be there when we get to where your taking me, Glynda can only worry so much" Ozpin said with a chuckle as he followed the human turned wolf Faunus.

"I know Papa Oz, but this is something I found out when it was a full moon last night, when I looked at the moon I felt something in me click" Loki said as they now stood in a small clearing, with Ozpin taking notice to the damaged trees and stone rocks, almost resembling claw marks a Beowolf would leave behind.

"Loki, what is it your showing me?" Ozpin questioned with Loki walking into the middle of the clearing an excited smile plastered on his face as his brown eyes melted into golden orbs as his skin began to darken and grow fur, slouching forward Ozpin stood shocked as he watched the child before him shifted into something close to a werewolf, he would have went on his guard if not for small embers of ash falling from the fur in orange specks, along with the wagging tail that Loki now possessed.

Staring at the now lycanthropic child Ozpin approached as Loki stood on his back legs, towering over Ozpin by a head.

"Loki, how did this happen?"

"I told you, I stared at a full moon and something clicked in my mind" the boy said with a deeper voice, making Ozpin blink before he watched Loki turn back with a grunt, shaking his head his eyes remained golden before they faded into brown, though his clothes were now stretched.

"That is quite a skill, but what I'm still puzzled about is the fact you lack an Aura and semblance and yet still able to do these extraordinary things, I'm still trying to figure out why" Ozpin said with Loki shrugging.

"The techies said they still haven't figured it out, so I wouldn't stress about it" Loki said as they began to make their way back to beacon, with Loki leaping into the air, making Ozpin look up and sigh.

"We really need to work on your normality skills one day" Ozpin said but with a smile as he burst into locomotion, surprising any who saw him as a man who would rather walk instead of run.

Appearing back at the academy he turned to lookup to see his adopted son falling to his side, leaving cracks where his feet landed, Loki let out a laugh as he hopped forward, stopping beside Ozpin he smiled in return as they continued walking to the academy.

So far in being in this world, Loki had returned to being a child with his memories sealed, but that didn't stop him from seeing things, he did however predict the splitting of a team called team STRQ, something Ozpin took seriously for about a month about being told of his academies top graduate school, and of course the relics.

It was when Loki turned eleven that Ozpin began to take Loki's predictions seriously, especially when he hinted close to a truth Ozpin's group had kept hidden from Remnant. The four Maidens, the four women he knew existed and Loki had been oblivious to the seriousness of the situation.

But right now as they were approaching the academy, they both gulped at the sight of an angry Glynda waiting with her left foot tapping the ground.

"You left her with paperwork again, didn't you?" Loki questioned with Ozpin chuckling slightly.

"Maybe two piles worth," Ozpin said before he was dragged away by Glynda, leaving the twelve-year-old on the academy grounds.

Before a man approached.

"Hey Mr. Branwen"

"Hey kid, you packed for your day at Signal?" the only he got was a smile.


Five years later

Snoozing for what could have been an hour-long nap, a now seventeen-year-old Loki snored on the supply train to Vale, now wearing a black two-tailed trench coat with black dress pants with black shiny red-soled shoes with sequenced crystals at the tip and a pair of fingerless leather gloves.

Leaning against the glass window the last bump the train tracks caused the teen Faunus to hit the window with a snort, groaning with his eyes slowly opening, Loki Fenris let out a sigh as he looked to the food table in front of him where a book of Vales history he looked up to see many people human and Faunus, sitting peacefully, with the rare few humans and Faunus conversing.

Smiling slightly to the tranquil scene Loki had enjoyed his life in Remnant, even after regaining his memories he still enjoyed his new life, despite the prejudice he took it all in strides, if only his now fellow Faunus had his willpower.

Looking out the window his ears listened to the rhythm bumps of the train before his tranquil thoughts were interrupted by two, out of place thumps hitting the train.

Making Loki open his eyes in confusion before shrugging, already knowing who just got on the train anyway, closing his eyes he heard people begin to worry while he simply slept, it was after a good hour that the train sped up suddenly making Loki finally open his eyes he saw the people relaxing while not noticing a girl in black wearing a black buttoned vest with coattails and a single silver button on the front. Underneath this was a white, sleeveless, high necked, crop undershirt and white shorts with a zipper on the front of each leg, emblazoned with the YKK logo of the real-life Japanese zipper manufacturer.

She also wears black low-heeled boots and full stockings with a color gradation of black to purple at her ankles. Her emblem is visible on the outside of both thighs just below her shorts in white. On her left arm is a detached sleeve with a silver cuff around her bicep, and black ribbons are wrapped around both forearms. A small, loose scarf is wrapped around her neck and a gray magnetic backpack is strapped to her back, hidden by her hair.

But Loki knew who this little stowaway was through the accessible memories he gained as he aged, this girl was Blake Belladonna.

Watching her as she found a seat she looked around with Loki closing his eyes in time to not get her attention.

Opening his eyes once more to see her looking forward, making Loki inhale calmly before he closed his eyes once more to skip the train ride to Vale.


Walking off of the train with a worried look to her surroundings Blake let out a sigh as she followed the crowd, her ears hidden by her bow she failed to see Loki following after her, walking to a food stand he bought a hotdog to go, being sure it had cheese and sauce he followed after Blake as she made her way out of the station, with Loki discreetly following after her while eating the snack.

It was when she ducked into an alleyway that Loki raised an eyebrow, that trick would've worked if he had been a common thug or dumb shit from that club near Beacon.

Taking a bite he leaned against the wall to hear anything worth listening to, hearing feet shuffling and breathing he looked up in thought of how to approach this situation.


Keeping her eye on the entryway to the alleyway she had hid in Blake kept an equal glare in case the one following her came to fight, her hand firmly on Gambol Shroud she heard steps and shuffling, preparing to pounce she was stunned as a Tuna Sandwich was held in front of her, making her cat instincts kick in suddenly as she scooped the tune from the offering hand, making the one following her look at his hand which had a small bite mark on it.

Leaning into view she perked up at the wolf Faunus in front of her with a teasing smile.

"You look like you needed food" Loki said with a smile as Blake stood up in denial, before she let out a soft belch until she covered her mouth, making Loki burst into laughter while Blake blushed before she glared at Loki in an adorable fashion, making Loki look to her for a second before laughing once more.

"Oh my god, you should have seen your faces" Loki laughed with Blake scowling, looking at the wolf Faunus he calmed himself down.

"Who are you?" Blake questioned with Loki smiling.

"Loki Fenris, son of Headmaster Ozpin, and I believe you can do right since you've just left the Fang"
