Yang
As I approached the table, I inspected its contents. Cheesecake (an absolute favorite of mine), and Qrow's specially made cookies and milk. As soon as we sat down at the table, I instantly tore into the cheesecake, not realizing how hungry I was before hand. I looked across the table and saw Qrow look at me with long eye, which he always seemed to do. "You practically live on cheesecake, don't you?" He said, somewhat sternly. "Yup." I replied, my mouth full of cheesecake, which I quickly washed down with a swig of milk. But he looked at me very seriously. Like dead serious. "We need to talk about the little incident you had in the schoolyard."
I instantly thought he would scold me or punish me for breaking a bully's nose, but why did he prepare my favorite snack if he was intending to punish me? "What about it?" I said, somewhat concerned he was going to yell at me. The one thing I knew about Qrow was that he never raised his voice. Ever. I prepared for the worst when he said "Did you enjoy it?"
A little story before I continue on, so pay attention to mama Yang. The bully who got his face introduced to the business end of my fist was your common schoolyard bully. He constantly picked on smaller kids, stole lunch money, tripped other kids, and shoved them in lockers, you know bully stuff. But why he decided to hone on me when I was his target, I have no idea. But I was very sudden. I was walking the hall when he had two of his goons grab my arms to prevent me from escaping. He then walked behind me and said he wanted some of my hair for his backpack. He often took tokens off his victims, probably to show how he dominated them and he knew I was sensitive when it came to my hair. I felt and sharp tuck and his friends pushed me to the ground. I turned and saw a golden lock of my hair in his hand. My vision went red. Literally, my vision started to turn crimson then a dark blood red color. And the whole thing was a blur. When I had snapped out of it the bully was in the hall, screaming in pain while there blood on my knuckles. In his pain, he threw down my hair and that's when the teacher showed up, flanked by two of his friends. That's why people say I'm a bad girl, all because I broke some kids nose because everybody else was scared to lift a finger
Instantly, I snapped back into reality. "He deserved it." I said my voice higher than usual. Qrow looked down, almost disappointed. "Yang, let me tell you something and don't forget this. When you cause pain to someone, it changes you into something you're not. I know you're a sweet girl, but I don't want you to develop a habit of violence like this." He said sternly. His tone surprised me. "But you live a life like this all the time, I mean you took lives for a living." I said while gesturing towards the wall. On the wall were three portraits and a weapon. The pictures show a much younger looking Qrow, skinny like and rail and in what looked like a military uniform. It was black and trimmed with gold. The two other pictures showed him with his comrades during what he called The Human-Faunus war. Why the two fought I have no idea. But he was also a hunter, a person who had hunted the Grimm. He used to tell me that the Grimm were creatures that were thought up in the stuff of nightmares. On the wall was a very unique looking weapon. It was a scythe but on the shaft of the weapon was a scope and on the bottom was a clip, like a rifle. He said it was a sniper-scythe, a weapon expert hunters and huntresses would use. He also used that weapon in the war. "Just because I lived a life of bloodshed, does not mean I enjoyed." He said. "Causing pain to others is not satisfying in the slightest and it will change the person you are. And when you cause someone pain, you will never forget it, so please do not ever take pleasure or attempt to justify you causing pain. Do you understand?" He finished. Now that I thought about it. It did seem to be the wrong thing to do. Me breaking that kid's nose and hearing him cry was not fun or satisfying. "Yeah, I understand."
After a long and silent snack he tucked me away to bed. "Now Yang, what do you want to be when you grow up" He said, sitting on my bed. My mind instantly went into overload and told him I wanted to be a huntress. I wanted to defend the innocent and defend from monsters. Surely his discussion on causing pain was directed towards people and not grimm. "Well, when you grow up, come to Signal Academy and your old uncle Qrow will teach you a thing or two about monster fighting, but I will say this. It is not for anybody who get's weak in the knees easy." He told me we will be going to the Northern Mountains tomorrow to meet a friend of his from his days as a hunter. And with that in mind and with a full belly, I quickly fell fast asleep. I was pretty glad that my first day there was as a peaceful affair. Too bad, if I knew what would happen the next day, I would've stayed back in the city.
