(Well, I hope you enjoyed the first chapter! I'm sorry this took so long to get up but I have been busy with school, so anyway, let's move on with chapter 2! Also! You may have noticed, I did change and edit the two current chapters, thank you to those for your feedback and I have done what I feel like I could, but now please enjoy!)
I walked along the hallways trying to find the headmasters office. I sigh loudly as I struggle to find it "Where the fuck is the office?" I growl to myself as a sudden hand on my shoulder startles me.
I jump and turn fast to be greeted with a black haired man with pink highlights and green clothing. I have no idea why, I had never even met this man, but I felt myself able to trust his word, and I trust no one.
"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you, you're looking for professor Ozpin right?" he asks
I nod and sigh "Yea I've been searching all over the damn building for about twenty minutes, you know where it is?" he smiles and gestures for me to follow "By the way my names Ren"
"Eclipse" I mutter as I follow him.
I have never really been a trusting person, but for some reason this guy just gave off a…calm aura. His dark black hair along with the highlights, looked as if he could charm a Grimm if he tried hard enough. I stopped my thought when I felt a blush form on my face.
'Stop it Eclipse, you have a job at hand to think about' I thought to myself
He leads me to the office and I nod at him "Thanks Ren" he bows and smiles "Of course, you're new here right?" I nod again "Thought so, if you ever need anything feel free to ask anyone from team JNPR or team RWBY, they are all good people" he states and winks at me before walking off.
I exhale, a new blush forming on my face, and enter the office where Ozpin is sitting down drinking coffee while reading something on his computer, he looks up at me "Ah there you are, any trouble finding the place?" he asks
"No sir" I lie as I sit down in front of him.
He raises an eyebrow at me before continuing "I have looked into your background Mr. Brooke" I frown as he uses my last name "Just Eclipse will do…sir".
He nods softly and begins again "Anyway, I have but a few question concerning your…work, before you attended Beacon academy".
"What do you mean my work? I never had a job before coming here" then Ozpin simply laughs "Well I suppose being an amateur assassin doesn't necessarily want to be brought up in conversation now does it?"
I frown at him and think back to one of my very first missions, a rather high value target but nonetheless, it had to be done.
(Flashback #2)
I watched carefully on top of a rooftop close to the enormous factory.
Holding a pair of high powered binoculars in my hand, I watch my target, a white haired women who appeared to be very aged.
I stand and slowly make my way over to the other building, I looked to see my target moving quickly with 3 armed guards and one hunter. 'Shit' I thought as I continued to move over the glass ceiling as quietly as possible.
A man walked out of a room and joined her as she walked, he also hair white hair along with a mustache, and a long rapier at his side.
"You do realize the danger of you being here right?" he asked her, I could only barely hear their words.
"I am aware someone is after me husband, but I would sooner it be me then you or our daughter or son"
He groaned and stopped her "Yes but I can protect all of you! I'll give whatever I have to t have the utmost protection for you all!"
She went to open her mouth, I made my move then.
I smashed through the glass ceiling falling down, I rolled to my feet and quickly incapacitated two of the armed guards, I switched to my revolver as the third one started firing and the hunter began moving the two forward.
I growled and fire at the guard catching him in his leg and I sprinted, close lining him as I ran by.
I caught up with the hunter who was standing ready, he carried what seemed like a normal rifle, but as he fired at me, massive holes began forming in the walls behind me.
I tried to dodge as many as I could before I was hit hard in the chest, it wasn't a bullet, his weapon fired out very powerful waves of air that even cracked stone, and in my case, some of my ribs.
I recovered enough to see him charging me with a large spear and went to strike.
I rolled to the side and slashed at him with my axes, we both moved fast to counter the others attack, before I landed the first lethal hit, my blade dragged across his throat and I watched the light leave his eyes.
"Be well in death" I whispered to him as I continued on.
I arrived on an airstrip where my target and her husband where boarding, I fired two round in front of them and they stopped.
"Only one of you has to die, and its her. Just let this happen, if it isn't her it will be your entire family." I stated.
"Please…you don't have to do this, ill give you anything you want, money, whatever they are paying you ill triple it!" her husband begged.
I shook my head and moved toward them and the women moved past her husband "If it is to save my family…I will accept my fate."
I nodded as she got on her knees and I leveled my gun at her head. The sound of the shot drowning out her husband's pleas.
I left that building and turned to look at it one last time before leaving the city, at the sign that read 'Schnee Dust Company'.
(Flashback #2 over)
I sigh and shake my head out of the memory "Fine, you caught me, now where do we go from here?" he sips his coffee and looks out the window "What is someone of your caliber doing in a school for learning?"
I relax a little and begin to explain "I am not here on business of that sort, but I was hired as a school body guard, a man named Qrow I believe sent me here? Said something bad was gonna happen soon and he trusted me and my family, so here I am".
I notice a line of frustration on Ozpin's face at the mention of Qrow "He should have reported to me first, but no matter you are here now, just do not let any of the students now why you are here, and do as Qrow instructed you to do".
I nod and get up to leave "Oh and one more thing" I turn and meet his eyes "Be careful, I saw what your capable of…very gruesome things, don't lay a hand on any of my students, are we clear?" he says with a hint of a threat.
I nod again "I am here to protect them sir, I will not harm them" he nods and I leave.
(Weiss' POV)
'Honestly! What in the world was that girl thinking?!' Weiss thought as she and her girlfriend headed to the mess hall.
She was still very angry, but she could never stay mad at Ruby for long, she would doing some cute or make her happy and she would forgive her.
As they entered Weiss noticed the man she had seen in the infirmary before with Ruby and the others, who the hell was he anyway?
He was standing in the corner of the mess hall eyes closed, leaning against the wall.
Weiss and Ruby got their food and sat with Yang, Blake and the rest of Team JNPR, but Weiss felt uneasy at the stranger's presence in the room. He had helped Yang save Ruby but still, they had been misled by those who called themselves friends before.
Ruby must have seen me glaring at him and put her hand over mine "What's wrong Weiss?" she asked concerned.
I sighed and turned to her "It's that guy over there…who the heck is he, he was with you guys in the infirmary right? What is he doing here?" I asked.
"You know it is very impolite to talk about someone when they are in the room" I heard a voice say from directly behind me.
I screamed and fell out of my seat and looked up to see the stranger had removed himself from the wall and came over, I saw Yang laughing hard and Blake try to stifle one, even Ruby had an amused smile.
I growled and got up and went to yell but quickly realized I shouldn't. He had a good foot and a half on me and looked as if he was afraid of nothing I could do to him.
I quickly swallowed my ego and regained my composer "Um..right..so sorry…who are you though? Are you a new student?" I asked curiously.
He nodded and sat down next to Ren at the end of the table and smiled at him, apparently those two had become friends at some point. "Yea I was transferred earlier this week, my name is Eclipse, im already familiar with Ruby, Yang and Ren here, I know your name is Weiss and she is Blake" he pointed to the black haired Faunus.
Weiss nodded "Right, well anyway who are you on a team with?" I asked as I sat back down.
"I am just by myself, I can be part of a team of my choosing when missions are assigned" Eclipse explained as he closed his eyes once again and sighed "Honestly I didn't wanna be here at first but you guys aren't so bad" I was certain that I saw his eyes flicker towards Ren for a second.
I grinned to myself and turned to continue eating and we all chatted amongst ourselves for the rest of lunch.
We all headed to our classed together, me, Ruby, Yang and Blake all had a class with Professor Port and Eclipse was in it as well, we all had to go out and show our combat skills against the Grimm.
We headed out into the forest where Port had said we were going to have class, but when we arrived I gasped in surprise.
"All right children, you will all test your skills against one of the most common of Grimm creatures, the Beowolf!" he exclaimed and pointed to 10 large cages, each with a very angry Beowolf inside of it.
Five other students had went before us all, Yang had went up first, she took up a fighting pose readying her Ember Celica, Port released the Grimm and it sprinted right toward Yang.
I saw Yang grin and started firing shots at it, they hit with a heavy impact as Yang charged the Grimm delivering a heavy punch to its gut and face. She brought her fist back and swung hard punching downward forcing the Beowolf's head into the ground killing it.
Professor Port congratulated her and I smiled, at her as she walked back over. "Well that didn't last too long." She smiled and hugged Blake close. Ruby and Blake went next both taking no time to defeat their Grimm.
It was now my turn and I pulled out Myrtensater and got into stance spinning the cylinder on the weapon to land on the required dust.
The Grimm was let out and I spawned a glyph and sped forward jabbing my rapier multiple times into the Beowolf's chest before ramming it up into its skull.
I yanked it free, the Grimm falling to the ground.
"Alright Weiss!" I heard Ruby yell and I smiled at her and kissed her forehead.
Professor Port smiles and nodded "Well done Miss Schnee!" then looked over at Eclipse, he had stayed very quiet through the previous fights, but he looked very upset when he had hear my name and eyeballed me for a moment.
He got up and went over in front of the cage and removes his weapons from the sash on his back, two very sharp angled axes, he got into a stance where one axe was extended in one hand behind him, the other far in front of him.
Port released the Grimm, and it was the only time I ever felt bad for a Creature of Grimm.
Eclipse spun fast slashing his axes across the Beowolf's chest and stomach before launching up in the air two do the same thing to the Grimm's back.
He slash off one of the Grimm's arms and legs, he switch his weapon to what looked like a handgun and fire two rounds off into its head.
It was all over in 5 seconds. I had never seen someone move as fast as he just had, not even Ruby.
Professor Port even seemed shocked "Well class…I believe that is enough for today, class dismissed!"
All of us returned to our dorms shocked by the ferocity of Eclipses attacks, who was he?
(?'S POV)
The man in a black trench coat stood in the alleyway late at night, he was getting tire of waiting but his patience would be worth it.
A car pulled up and a rather small women stepped out and walked over and whispered something in his ear. "He arrived at Beacon earlier today, seems like they know what's coming" she said but smiled.
The man nodded and walked off, he had things to prepare.
