RWBY: INFINITY CORE
Chapter Ten: Eclipse ( Part 3: Truth's Part 2 )
At the same time team RWBY is learning the truth, Sorey is now learning the truth as well.
"Where are am I" I say aloud, looking around seeing nothing but darkness.
"If anyone should know where you are… it should be you." The gentle woman's voice said still not showing her self.
"Who are you?" I say once again continuing to scour the darkness for the woman who was talking to me.
After a few moments I sensed something behind me, and turned around quickly to see a figure coming into view; she stood about 5 feet from me; but she was close enough for me to full make out what she looked like. She was fairly young maybe around mid twenties, average height, short jet black hair, she also appeared to be a faunus and a beautiful one. She was a cat faunus, with beautiful bright blue eye's, and she just stood there giving me a warm smile and tilted her head.
"You sure have grown up into a fine young man….. Sorey," The women said, I swear as she spoke she was beginning to cry.
"My name isn't Sorey…. its Lucio," I said to the women confused at what she was saying.
"That to is such a lovely name, but not the one…. me and your father gave you…." The women said as she paused to look at me with a serious gaze awaiting for my response.
"Wha— what did you say.." that was about as much as I could say, to what the women that was claiming to be my mother.
"I really wish there was a better way for me to tell you all of this, but time is short and its now time for you to know the truth about what happened to us….. and what happened to you, my son." the women spoke to me in a soft voice that sounded very familiar to me; and felt comfortable and calming. As she continued to speak to me she got closer and closer to me, when she reached me I had to look down at her. I then felt her hands grab my head as she pulled me down, soon I became eye level with the faunus women she then tilted my head to gentle touch her forehead. As we did the darkness around me was cleared and then it all hit me at once, I was able to see everything happen and without warning everything stopped and I looked around to see that I am in a city, one that was still being created from the looks of it.
I then began to move on my own, as I look back to look in the direction I am moving in I see the same women who was just talking to me was there and was walking the streets of the city they were in.
"Hey were are we going" I say to the women, after a few moments it seems like she can't hear me, then it hits me this feels like the time I was looking into the past as a ghost or projection. So this means that since she could not hear me or see me that must mean that I am looking into her past.
"Well she did say that she would show me what happened to them and me…" I thought to myself as I remember what the women said to me.
The women continues to walk down to the street to were the city itself isn't completed, but instead there is a make shift barrier 40ft tall or so, soon the women begins to gain speed to an almost run as she reaches one of the watch towers.
"TERRRAAAA…. TERRAAAAAAA," The women yelled looking up at tower, after a few moments a Tall young man with spiky hair leans over and wave's his hand to the women below.
"AQUAAAA, HEY I WILL BE DOWN IN A SEC." Terra says as after about a minute or so the door leading out of the tower opens as the man runs over to Aqua and hugs her tightly as well as picking her up and twirling in a circle.
"Aqua… Terra….. Why does it feel like I know the names, but I can't place it anywhere… could she have been telling the truth about her being my mother… Impossible it can't be true." I said aloud to myself as far as I could tell anyway.
"Why do you consider it impossible," the same man I just saw in the vision is standing behind me. I look at him and turn back to face a the same man in the vision walking off with Aqua back towards the part of the city that is complete.
"How are you…" I was unable to finish my question as he raises a hand and points back to the vision in front of me. As I look it looks like the vision is flashing forward after its speedy pick up it fades to black and begins again.
"AHHHHHHHHH…. ," What sounded like Aqua screaming in terrible pain.
"Come on baby your almost there, push…" As the vision is coming clear to me, I can see Aqua, and Terra in a hospital room, and Aqua is on the medical bed leg's spread and a doctors there ready to deliver.
"Your almost there Aqua, just a few more pushes, come on PUUUSSSHH," The women doctor said Aqua made one more push and sounds a baby crying, the doctor hold's a health baby boy, as she hands the boy over to the nurse behind her, Aqua begins to cry in pain again, soon the doctor see's there is another baby coming. She then begins to tell Aqua to continue to push as the head is now visible. The nurse puts the baby she was holding into a crib like container to let the baby rest, as she heads back to assist the doctor.
"One more push Aqua, come on you can do this," the doctor says as the baby is almost out, after Aqua lets out her final push a second later another baby starts to cry, sighs of relief where breathed as after 18 hours of labor finally done. After the babies are cleaned and dried they are presented to there parents.
"Mr. and Mrs. Belladonna, I would like to present you to your baby boy and girl." The doctor says as she presents the babies to the new parents.
"Twins," Terra says as he stands next to Aqua with his hands wrapped around there new family.
"So how are we going to decide who get to pick the names," Terra continue's as he looks at the children in the love of his life's arms.
"Well I defiantly want the boy's name, so I will let you pick the girls name and which ever one you pick I will allow it." She says with a slightly hesitant smile.
"MMMHMMM, OOHHH I know, Mineral" he says with a big smile on his face as he stares at Aqua.
"UHHH— Yeah i—its uhhh- ummm…. nice….." Aqua was saying trying not to show her dislike for the name he chose.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Aqua I am joking," He confesses laughing. He after the chuckles die down he stops and thinks for a second, as he does Aqua thinks about what to call there son as well.
"Blake…." Terra says aloud this time looking at Aqua with a playful yet serious tone as he looks at her.
"Sorey…." Aqua says looking at her lover with the same type of look, both of them looking happy to hear the name's of there children.
"Sorey, and Blake Belladonna," the doctor says to the couple as they both nod and stare back at each other
I—I was very shocked to see what I was looking at… I saw my birth and my…. sister's birth. The sight left me speechless, my jaw sank down, I just couldn't get over it, tears started to flow down my cheek, the emotions of finally knowing my parents hits me like meteor, my shoulders shaking; heavy panting I soon fell to my knee's. Overwhelmed with happiness and sadness, as I continued to let myself for once cry with all I have got a gentle hand was placed on my shoulder I turned to face the person to see my…. my mother there giving me a warm smile and tears flowing down her face as well.
I fell in her chest and squeezed her tightly as I continued to cry, it felt like hours had gone by, but all she did was hug me as tightly, I could feel her warmth; her softness; and her love; her hand was on my head combing my hair and speaking softly in my ear.
"Its okay my love, I know, I know…. I really wish this would be all I have to show you, but I am afraid its not over." She said as she pulls me away gentle and puts a hand on my cheek.
"You have my eyes, and your fathers handsome face…" She said as she allowed more tears to flow.
"Your sister inherited my faunus heritage, having my ear's and your father's eyes, she even had my physique, You both were spitting images of us, I— I can only hope you believe me n—." I stopped her from speaking hugging her tightly, she surprised, but returned the hug and smiled.
"I do believe it, I only doubt it cause I have no memory of this past, only from when I woke up in the hospital," I said to my mother who was now looking at me with her bright blue eyes.
"I told you, it wasn't impossible." I turned around behind me and saw Terra, my father standing there looking at me. My mother stands up and helps me up as she walks with me to him. Standing in front of him, I stood about 4in taller than him, putting him at about 5"10 or so. It was still enough for me to see him eye to eye. I embraced him and hugged him just as tightly as he then returned the gesture. My mom then came in and hugged us both at the same time.
"All we are missing is your sister." Aqua says.
"Can you both go to see her?" I say this them both.
"I am afraid we can't" Terra says looking at Aqua. Confused by the statement; Aqua finishes up where he left off.
" You are different Sorey, and I am pretty sure you know that," as she says that she points to my chest and her hand fazes through my chest as she begins to pull something out. I felt a strange pressure as she began pulling, it didn't hurt but it feels different, almost warm. After she is able to pull it out a bright blue crystal is rotating in her hand it was perfectly symmetrical. Its radiating a blue aura with a white outer glow, the sight of it is mesmerizing, then I am hit with a reality…. "That came out of me?" I thought to myself.
"What is that?" I say to them in a confused tone.
" I wish I could tell you, but our time is limited, our aura will only last long enough for us to show you what happened to us at Mt. Glenn and to you." After Aqua says that the space around us changes as I can now see sky grayed; lightning flashing; the sounds of screaming, blood splattered on the walls of the once completed expansion. Grimm were invading the city from all directions. The protection battalion set up battlements and had began to work on a stable fortress wall, but was either incomplete or destroyed.
Without the natural barriers that Vale had, it was simply to ambitious to build fortress walls in the middle of open land. The grimm were merciless killing all who stood in there way. A young lady was screaming in pain as a nevermore tore her lower body from her, her blood was splatter all over a huntsmen who was attempting to save the women, but it was to late, the blood got in his eye and was unable to see, a Ursa clawed him in half, those who witnessed it charged in revenge; soldiers scattered; divided; and abandoned it was absolute chaos. As the vision changed I could see my mother and father; a military commander; attempting to gather there troops together to help evac to the lower city.
"COME ON YOU APE'S YOU WANT TO LIVE FOREVER!" The military commander is yelling inspiring his troops to hold there ground so the civilians can fall back.
"THERE IS TOO MANY COMMANDER WE CANT HOLD THEM!" One of the soldiers yells out.
"ECHO TWO-FIVE, ECHO TWO FIVE, THIS OMEGA ONE WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS TO OUT LOCATION!" The military commander says yelling in his ear piece, as he waits for the response, a Griffon's wings slice two men in half and crunch down on another soldiers head, brain matter coming from the beast mouth.
"OMEGA ONE, WE ARE UNABL— HAAH-AHHHHH…(Crunching noises, and gargling in the ear piece.)!" The Commander was horrified at what he heard throwing his ear piece to the ground, he then turns to see several grimm coming towards him, he only has about a platoon size group of soldiers with him.
"All right men, if we have to give these bastards our lives, WE GIVE THEM HELL BEFORE WE DO!" With a charge his soldiers rush the grimm. The Commander spears a beowolf knocking it down and blasting its head off. As the rest of his troop are fighting off the grimm, they are losing ground, and fast, unable to actually hold them for very long the men begin to drop, adding fresh blood to the already soaked payment.
"Commander Cody, we have to retreat, there are only three of us left."One of the soldiers says continuing to shoot at the grimm, with the rest of his men and the commander. They continued to fall back, until the Commander's gun jammed up, a Deathstalker was speeding its was towards the commander, his men tried desperately to stop it, but its armor was to thick, the stalker swung his massive claw crushing one of the men killing him instantly. Then almost instantly it grabbed another soldiers as its stinger impaled the last soldier, the soldier caught in the claws of the deathstalker, began to scream in pain as the clamps began to squeeze, blood was coming from his mouth, eye's and ears until the man was severed in two the upper half dropping in front of the Commander.
The Commander braced himself but then a loud horn sounded and everything stopped, the grimm held there place not moving an inch. A few moments late a figure made it's way to the Commander, a figure stood tall in front of the man. He was wearing a full body armor; coated in black and red; with a emblem of a grimm beowolf on his chest; his helmet light up where is eyes were, with a bright red glow mimicking the eyes of the grimm.
The figure stood over the Commander and pointed a single handed pistol that would have normal taken two hands to hold that kind of weapon at the Commanders head.
"This is not your planet to rule, the fallen will rise once again…." The hulking figure spoke through the helmet, it sounded raspy and almost mechanical. The figure pressed his finger on the trigger of his weapon. The Commander closed his eye's and waited for his own end, after not hearing the gunshot he opened his eyes to see a fade, blue and white blade inches from his face. The sword is removed from the soldier and he fell to the floor with a hard clash, the Commander looks back in front to see a women standing there blade in hand.
"Not today." Aqua says as she stands over the body of the soldier, Terra and Summer are in the background killing the grimm around them, as well as some of the soldiers that were with the one that was killed. She then reaches for the Commander and helps him up.
"Cody, we need to leave right now, we could have handled the grimm, but not these soldiers, they are different from anything I ever seen, they are natural born killers, they are the one's who destroyed the wall, allowing the grimm in. Ozpin, sent Summer Rose to find out what happened, since we stop transmitting, those bastards destroyed our transmitter." Aqua says with a serious tone, while making sure no more enemies were around. Commander Cody nods at the women, knowing full well not to argue with a huntsmen. Aqua, Terra, Summer, and Cody retreated with the last of the protection battalion which after the count came out to 1,500 Vale troops left, and about 22 huntsmen as well.
"Is…. this it…. I wonder"Aqua says aloud in the under ground city, people crying at the lost of family and loved one's. Wounded everywhere; the soldiers and huntsmen standing and sitting where ever they can, some depressed at what just happened, others angry, and most scared; and they should be since its only a matter of time before they get in. As Aqua stands in the arms of Terra, Summer makes her way towards the couple and stands next to them.
"Summer, you have no idea how much it means to me for you to be here, but you need to go, Ruby and Yang are going to need you a—and, I hope you could take Sorey and Blake with you as well." Aqua says, tears beginning to fall down her cheeks.
"I would, but I am not leaving until the people are evacuated, that was the same oath the rest of us took, and if we don't stop them here, than what to stop them from reaching Vale, and if Vale falls then that's it." Summer says as she looks deep into Aqua's eyes both calming her and giving her just a bit of hope. After a moment of two, three children make there way to Aqua and Terra's side.
"MOMMA, DADDY,! the little girl says running up to Aqua and squeezing her tightly as the boy follow's suit, Aqua brings them both in and squeeze them tightly.
"Hey baby girl, and my strong man, I need you to listen to me, you as well Tai Lee." As Aqua says that, the third girl, looks up at her with frightened eye'e.
"Tai…. Lee," I looked at the little girl and saw her braided ponytail, I recognized it, Dr. Lee had the same exact braided ponytail.
"Aunt Aqua, uncle Terra, will we be alright." Tai Lee says to the couple as she opens her arms for a hug, which Aqua quickly embraces her, wiping away her tears.
"Of course, Sorey, Blake listen very closely, you are going to escape with Tai Lee to the city of Vale, but me and your father , as well as your godmother Summer are going to stay behind okay." Aqua begins to say as she continues to let small tears make there way down her dirtied face covered in dried blood and dirt, yet still looking as beautiful as ever.
"But mo—," The boy is immediately stopped by Aqua placing her finger on his lips.
"There is no time to argue Sorey, so with that said, you are going to have to be the man of the family okay. Take care of your sister and your cousin okay, look for a man named Ozpin he will help you okay."Aqua says, after the little boy gives a nod tears flowing down as he attempts to be strong.
"Okay momma, I— I promise," The boy says his shoulders shaking as he is now in a full tears. Terra made his way to Blake, and told her the same thing he embraced her hard, tears tricking down his cheek as he pulled her in closer.
"Baby girl, you are different from others, but never ever let anyone judge you by your appearance and alway make sure you show them what you can really do okay, we Belladonna's never run from a fight." Terra lets go of her and lifts her chin with his hand, having both of there amber eyes looking at one another, she looks at him and kisses his cheek.
"Sorey, Blake, Tai, when you get too Vale find my husband and make sure he give's you a place to stay with us okay." Summer says to the three children.
After all the goodbyes were said an explosion opened a whole, that was filled with grimm as well as the soldiers throwing all of them in shock, the three kids run to the train station, As they run they look back and see there mother and father for the very last time, as they turn around with Commander Cody and charge the enemy. At that time it never even occurred that, that would be the last time they would ever see them again.
As the kids are making there way to the train station, among the crowds of people Tai Lee was separated from Sorey and Blake. The called out to her but, where unable to find her, people were pushing and shoving. People were dying by getting stampede by the horrified civilians, after a few minutes people were stuffed into the cars to there maximum occupancy. As one of the soldiers on board who was wounded had his radio still on.
Sorey and Blake were standing next to the soldier and heard everything that was happening back at the battle…. it was horrible.
"I REPEAT, I REPEAT HUNTSMAN LEADER TERRA HAS FALLEN, WE HAVE NOW CONFORMATION THAT AQUA IS SEVERALLY WOUNDED… WE NEED TO EVAC AS WELL THE CITY IS LOST, I— HAAAAA—AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH, "(static and white noise), the radio finally cut as we assume the soldier who was speaking died. The boy holds his sister tightly as he can't get what he said out of his mind. "There dead…." the boy thought to himself, but his thoughts were cut short as the train there were on came to a teeth shattering stop sending people flying in to the windows some even breaking through them blood scraping the wall from the momentum of the train. Other's were sent flying against the walls. The children held there ground stumbling forward slightly. After the train finally stops all the doors swing open and the soldiers that invaded Mt. Glenn, they entered and immediately killed all the soldiers that were in the cars, even the wounded. After they looked to see if there were anymore soldiers, a man in a suit came onboard the train.
"I recognize that man," I said aloud so my mom and dad could hear.
"Dr. Nuvi Bukar…. the man that started all of this." Aqua says in response.
The man nods his head to one of the soldiers, but this soldier was different he had a bloody claw marks run across the faceplate. The soldier and his men pull out the adults, and a moment later the adults that crammed the cars was now filled with children. The girl looks out the window, the adults are lined up and on there knees, the train begins to move once again, as they begin to move the soldiers open fire on the group of innocent people, causing Blake to gasp in fear, Sorey held Blake in arms as the train began to move going to somewhere where the real hell awaits.
Soon after the train is no longer in view the vision ends, leaving me there to process everything, that was my past, even though I didn't see everything I knew everything I lived a happy life with my family and then for no reason, they came and destroyed everything. The void where my sadness laid, was now filled with anger and hatred. My fist clenched the bones popping as I clench harder, "How could they," I thought to myself as my teeth started to make cracking noises from closing them down hard.
After a moment a pair of hands grabbed my right hand, my shaking stopped as I turn to see my father, he turned me around to face him and embraced me, then spoke softly.
"Son, you now know the truth about the past you were forced to forget, but I need you to listen me."He pauses as he begins to fade with a bright yellow light.
"You have to be strong, you might have lived a life alone, but you are no longer alone, you have your sister, your team, your cousin, and that beautiful young woman. You have a great power my son, you have a power that can protect them, but you need to train yourself, and remember you may not see us, but we are always right here." as he speaks he points to my heart and then brings me in for a hug, I never thought the day would ever come when I could hug my father, I launched myself at him and hugged him tightly. After a moment there we let go, and he then faded away.
My mother stood there and she to began to fade away, but she made her way to me.
"I am so sorry that this came out this way, my son….. your father and I lived with you both until now… I have seen the pain you have endured, but I want you to know that I am so, so proud of you. You have acted selfless, strong, loving and caring, you have your fathers looks and my personality. Tell my baby girl that I love her so much, and that I want you both to stay together from now on….. Okay." She says pausing as the tears stop and she places a hand on my cheek to wipe mine away, we hug for the last time and whispers one last thing before finally fading away.
"Protect the one's you love….. Avatar Sorey." she says as she fades from my arms leaving me in my mind to to finally sort out all of my memories that where now all coming back to me.
"Avatar…. Sorey…." I say to a loud.
At the same time back in the real world.
After her talk with her mother, Yang left the elevator walking in a trance like state, still remembering what Ozpin, and her mother had said. Everything about Summer, Blake, Mt. Glenn, and about Sorey. As she continues to process everything she then wonders if she will have to tell Sorey everything or if Blake would. Then there is that, her partner Blake now know's her origin's and to find out she is Sorey's sister.
"This really is a lot to take in," Yang says in a soft spoken voice as she continues to look at the ground at her footsteps, but still knowing where she was going. She passes the mess hall and she could see the Eclipse is hour's away still, but its red tinge is beginning to engulf the surrounding blue sky. She eventually reaches the infirmary looking at the door, her hand reaches for the button that opens the door, but hesitates as she stops inches from the button.
"A man who loves you…" The words her mother said lingered, and then she lets out one of her usual grins, brushing off any of the concerns that had built up, knowing full well that the man in that infirmary is the same man she fell in love with. With that in mind she presses the button and the door opens, as it does she bumps into Velvet causing the two huntress's to stagger a bit.
"Ohh Sorry Velvet, I wasn't paying attention." Yang says to the faunus girl who's ears jumped forward at the voice she heard.
"Ohhh Yang, its no worries I wasn't really paying attention either." The faunus girl chuckles, after they both regain themselves Yang remembers Velvets teammate was also here since he lost to Sorey in the beginning of the tournament.
"How is Yatsuhashi doing? Will he be okay?" She ask.
"Actually Yeah he will be, nothing that some time and a few bandages can fix." The faunus girl gives a smile. The answer makes Yang feel a little better.
"Thats good, I am glad to hear that." Yang says.
"Yeah, how is Lucio, I heard what happened is he okay and are you as well?" The rabbit faunus says. Already forgetting that Sorey went by Lucio left her in a state of confusion. Not wanting to have to answer to many questions, she let Velvet continue to believe that his name was still Lucio.
"Despite the hug hole in the wall, and the giant crater in the courtyard, he is perfectly fine just out cold, and as for me I was really worried but other than that I am okay now, Ozpin was telling me more about him and his condition, but over all he should be up and running around soon." Yang says giving her a smile.
"I— I couldn't help, but notice… but I saw his body as I was walking out…. I can't imagine what he has gone through." Velvet was saying pausing between phrase not wanting to pry but to voice her opinion, still afraid of what the blonde might say.
"Velvet please don't tell anyone about his body…. he gets very emotional about it." Yang says her voice getting soft.
"Yeah! Of course, he is my friend to, and I wouldn't start rumors that could bombard him with questions." Velvet says waving her hands gesturing she wouldn't do that.
"Thanks Velvet, I am going to go see him now, so I will see you later okay." Yang says walking pass the faunus girl giving her a smile as she does.
As Yang walks past Velvet, she sees me now laying down on one of the beds facing a window, and next to him was the doctor that was helping him, she was rather young maybe even a year or two older than Yang, blue eyes, a little shorter than Yang, and had her hair in a braided ponytail. Yang enter further in and ask the Doctor about Sorey.
"Ahhh Ms. Long welcome," The young doctor says to Yang.
"Hello, How is Sorey doing," The worried blonde says still not use to saying Sorey instead of Lucio.
"Ahh getting use to the name I see," She chuckles putting a finger close to her chin.
"He is also doing better, I can sense my aunt and uncle's aura fading from his body, which can only mean that his memories are beginning restored." Tai Lee says to Yang as she hovered over Sorey's body with a faded red mist waves over his body. Obviously confused at what the women said, Yang walked closer until he was side by side with the young doctor.
"I was told that you now know everything about our horrid past." Tai Lee said lifting her hands from my chest and turns to face the blonde.
"Yes, my team and I….. know." Yang says re-remembering what she was told by her mother and Ozpin, but she doesn't remember hearing anything about Sorey having any other family except for Blake.
"You said, you are Sorey's cousin?" Yang says to the Tai Lee one eyebrow raised.
Tai Lee didn't say anything as she paused and stared down at her younger cousin and rubbed his hands and touched the scar in the center of his chest. She then begins speaks again without looking at Yang.
"You know, Sorey, Blake and I were very close as children, you could say I even saw them as siblings, Sorey was younger than me, But he was always protecting us from anything we feared….. almost like he was taking our fears for himself….. he never once asked for help for himself, he would do everything himself so the one's he loved would never experience pain…. even if that means he will endure it all." Tai Lee was saying her hands clench in a half fist and tears begin to fall on them, as Yang bends over to see her face, Tai Lee turns so she can't be seen.
"He went through the Augmentation procedure 5 times…. 5 times," She says finally turning to see Yang's face, her eye's were slightly red, and she was flustered. "The procedure has such a low success rate, that not even the military would do it to make better soldiers, the man who attack us at Mt. Glenn sacrificed so many children for such a stupid idea." Tai Lee continues still looking at Yang's eyes.
"You were there…. at Mt. Glenn." Yang says to the young doctor
"I was…." Tai Lee says in a very soft tone, and turns around and lets out a small sigh.
" I was there visiting with my family to see Sorey and Blake, since it was their birthday. I begged my mother and father to take me there so I could see them, and soon after finally pestering them enough they agreed, but before we could go she would have to call Aqua to ensure that it would be safe, since at the time the city was still in its finishing stages.' Tai Lee pauses and then continues again.
"Aqua and Terra had said that there hasn't been any incidents and that a few days here should be okay, so with that said that same day we packed up and left that day by airship to Mt. Glenn. My family has always been in the medical field so you could say we have been in the richer side of living, we owned our own airship, thats how we got there in the first place." Tai Lee walks over to the chair and sits down, but before she does that she pulls up a chair for Yang to sit down on.
" It didn't take long for things to escalate, we spent a few days together then on that horrid day, they came; they gave no warning; no signal; and they just came out of now where, thousands of soldiers, and Grimm. It was horrible, the three of us were to escape by train back to Vale….. but I got separated from them as from the frantic crowd. I wasn't transported by train, instead a few of the soldiers who were to report what happened to Vale. I was the only child with them or the only one they could save." She says tears flowing down with no interference.
"As we flew away I saw the city in flames, black smoke filled the once blue sky as the view got further away, I broke down crying in the airship, with so many question's in mind; where are my parents are they okay; is aunt Aqua and uncle Terra; and what happened to my cousins. all of these things were in my mind." she signs and continues.
After about an hour and half we reached Vale, and landed here at beacon, where Ozpin was told about the attack, I was sent to this very infirmary where I was checked, fed cookies and milk and told to rest. After I was done Ozpin came to see me, he told me everything he told you, I was destroyed at what I was told, but Ozpin gave me a way out, he had heard about me from aunt Aqua about my semblance aura control, I have the ability to manipulate the aura in others, through a series of points throughout the human body I can even sense how powerful a person is though these points. I was even able to find the death points in people and in the Grimm." She says looking at Yang.
"Knowing the truth behind Mt. Glenn I decided to continue living in there stead, I was only 7 at the time, but I knew full well that I wanted to save lives. So I went to school; and instead of going off to a combat school or huntsman academy; I went to medical school and graduated early with my outstanding knowledge in the human body. You would believe how many looks I get when I tell them I am only 22 with a Doctorate. " She chuckles as does Yang at the statement.
"Then about two year ago Ozpin sent me a message saying Blake was alive and she was going to be attending Beacon that year. I was overwhelmed with emotions at the message."Tai Lee spoke softly.
" How come you never went to see her?" Yang says to Tai Lee.
" I—I was scared…. and wasn't even sure if she would remember me, and then I was hit with a harsh reality….." Tai Lee says her voice scratchy
"You thought Sorey was dead…. didn't you." Yang says to the young doctor. She only nodded at the notion and looked over to see Sorey on the table still sound asleep. She couldn't get over at how many scars were on his body.
"I decided that it would be best for her to live her life without me coming in and changing it, but come to find out Ozpin had wanted me to alter there memories when they were finally found and so Sorey and Blake's memory were altered. Then only months ago, Ozpin said that I would be getting a patient that I would know, and that he wanted a full report, and I was also suppose to sent another message to an unknown occupant. Come to find out, as I walk out to see the patient, I immediately recognized him…. it was Sorey." Tai Lee says rubbing her face with her hands and wiping away any tears that were still on her face.
" Then today, I get a message only saying this, (COME TO BEACON, SOREY AND BLAKE NEED YOU), so I came and come to find out he actually didn't need me, but I was able to find out that awhile ago that he was getting his memories back as well, since his were also altered as well. Since Ozpin had me alter Sorey'e memories as and blocked out his memory to save him from the pain he endured at the research lab. Yang, Sorey was made into something to help mankind, he has become a legend said to be only myth, he has become th—" She was cut off as Blake entered the room and saw Tai Lee with Yang.
