A/N If you don't know already the creator of RWBY, Monty Oum has passed away. However as he worked hard to put together RWBY and has inspired so many people, myself included I am still going to work hard at this and hopefully start to update this fic more frequently

'In theory a person or faunus could have as many semblances as they want, as far as most people know a semblance is a tangible form of their aura and thus reflects who they are. These so scientists believed that if they could add dust to someone's aura it would give that person a better version of their semblance as adding dust into a weapon has a similar effect. Thus they began testing, they needed subjects who weren't used to using their aura so that the dust would have an effect while they learnt, the obvious choice was children. Their tests failed to evolve our semblance however the dust inside of us took form in our aura, the mixture of dust and aura created a new personality within the subjects head, one that reflected the traits of the dust used. From what I have experienced this new personality was capable of generating it's own aura… it's own semblance. They took this as a success, their own mercenaries with two semblances and enough dust infused to become superweapons. My case, however seems more advanced than the others, while they are just gaining the effects of the two semblances they aren't able to efficiently use both, which makes sense as you can't use a semblance that doesn't suit you. In my case the two personalities began merging. The effects of this are that I am able to use both semblances together as if they were a single one. The side effects include a need to kill, it is difficult to control my own body at times but I have an increased amount of aura to use. I am telling you this hoping that you have found people who will be able to help you control what I've become. Since getting this book in the first place must've been difficult I will tell you how to remove the block to the memories on both of your semblances as I don't know which one you'll discover. The block is just an illusion so you can walk through it'

Chase went into his mind and looked at the object that had been stopping him from getting to his memories, as he took as step forward it dissipated and was bombarded by his memories.

*After Summer Rose's death he made his way into Vacuo to find someone to train him to fight so he could become a hunter, while he was in the desert he found the house of a retired hunter. The man had took him in while Chase was in the desert. His house wasn't much as it only had a kitchen, sitting area and a bedroom with a toilet in a small room attached to the bedroom. The man was tall and had short, black and messy hair. Chase had noticed the face the man had worn, he had lost something to the grimm as well. After Chase told the man what had happened to him the man told him he was called Tony and that he would teach Chase basic fighting abilities as well as how to use his aura, but he had no weapons to train Chase with.

"Here" Tony handed Chase a brown and worn out cloak as well as a thin grey cloth, "If we're gonna teach you in the desert you need some protection from the sand. They walked outside and Tony stood opposite of Chase.

"In stories they will usually tell you that everything slows down in a fight, it does the exact opposite. Adrenaline runs through your body and everything gets faster. The most important lesson is to be able to calm yourself down in a fight and keep your head clear and your eyes open" He then pulled out a golden crystal from his pocket.

"Since I believe the best way to teach anyone is to start off difficult and then bring you up more I am going to use this crystal to speed up my movement, if you can knock me down then you are worth teaching"

Chase dragged his foot back and saw the crystal in his hand begin to glow as he disappeared, Chase felt a draft behind him and ducked narrowly avoiding Tony's punch but staggered back after the other one hit his side. Chase was breathing heavily the punch had hurt quite a bit and he knew that Tony wasn't trying yet.

"What did I tell you, speeds up doesn't it?"

Chase closed his eyes and took a deep breath trying to calm his nerves when he felt something hit his face, sending him flying. He pushed himself up and saw Tony crouch in front of him.

"Down so easily, I thought you wanted to be a hunter"

Chase's arms crumbled below him, he could hear Tony walking away to his house -Defeated in less than a minute, it's pathetic- Then he remembered the image of Summer being killed by the grimm and felt a spark of anger flow through him and when he opened his eyes he saw his body covered in a light blue, it slowly healed up the damage Tony had dealt to him.

Chase ran up behind Tony and clenched his fist ready for a punch, as he had expected he hit nothing and expecting what was to come Chase backflipped avoiding both punches and then elbowed behind him. He felt something grab on to his elbow and spin him back down into the sand. Chase wasted no time and calmed himself -While he can move fast with that crystal if I hit him while he's moving- Chase charged at Tony but before he got to him he sent a roundhouse kick to his left which stopped Tony and caused him to stumble down

"Looks like you activated your aura, most people need to be babysitted through it, I'll teach you the basics" Chase learnt how to use his aura to block an attack and reinforce his hits as well as how to activate dust, though he couldn't figure out how to control it 100% of the time.

He left Tony and exited the desert went in the direction of Vacuo, while he was on his way he could hear something in the distance. As he headed in the direction of the noise he recognised the growling of grimm. It was a village just on the outskirt, sure hunters could get there but they could be a while. Chase quickly ran into the village pulling out the time dust crystal Tony gave him and activated it. He took a deep breath and time slowed around him, looking around he saw a Beowulf near a group of children. Without thinking he ran in pushing the children away while throwing a fire crystal in front of the Beowulf. Just as he got the children inside he saw an eruption of flames engulf the Beowulf along with some of his buddies. Then he saw airships coming towards the village, he got the children to safety and then went to meet with the people who came to save the village. As he got there he saw a Man with short black hair who immediately noticed Chase.

"It's dangerous out here, you need to hide"

"There's a group of children over there, you need to help them"

"Where are they?"

"Follow me" Chase lead the man towards the group of children he saved he opened the door and looked back at the man

"I have a safe place not too far from here, I can come back to find survivors later but you children are priority"

"Umm" one of the children said, a little girl with long black hair, she pointed to one of the others "She sprained her ankle"

Chase walked over to the girl she had pointed to lifting her arm around his neck and bringing her up "Where is this safe place?" The man led the way*

He was interrupted from his memory when Neo crawled through the window of the abandoned apartment they had been using as a hiding place. He hid the book and looked up to her "They looking for us?"

"They don't even know we were on the train, if they did they have assumed us dead in the crash"

"Then I'll be heading to Beacon tomorrow"

"I have to leave to find Ironwood soon, after this he will be more defensive"

"See ya"

Neo didn't reply and left after eating. Chase watched her leave and then realised that he recognised the man from his memory -General Ironwood was the man who found me at the village, the man behind all the experiments- But why investigate him if he's in charge -She isn't, if I go to Beacon which they expect me to I can tell them that the good General has nothing to do with this and that he is being spied on- Which means he knows Neo is coming to spy on him -If I don't betray them to go to Beacon he could always say he found Neo spying on him, if that happens…- Chase hurried to the window, Neo was already far away. I don't think that's the only problem we have now -Hmm?- Well we know that there's another personality in here, you saw what happened in the train -Yeah-

-Did I hear someone talking about me- Now that you're here, why don't you just take control? - Because it's fun watching the two of you- -So you're not going to take over- -Not yet, I've grown quite fond of this life you've made for yourself- -Great-

Chase decided to get some sleep as he was going to have to sneak into Beacon tomorrow and wanted to make sure he was well rested

*"Who'd have thought you'd be the one who'd try to escape first, don't you want to protect these people" Ironwood said standing in front of his squad of dust-infused mercenaries "And how could a monster like me save these people, especially when you've made them hate me" Ironwood smirked as he gave the order to attack*
