Chapter 4 R: Yoko Rayne

(Yoko POV)

Mistreated. I was born with a twin sister, Yuki; she was everything our parents hoped for while I was just the opposite.

Talented? They questioned whether or not I had any talent at all, when the truth is; it wasn't with what Yuki was talented in. We both liked music but we had different tastes, for her, music came from the musical instruments we could have learned from. For me, music came from fighting, no matter what, I could hear the melodies play out as each strike was made, I wanted to join combat school so badly, but if I wanted to go, Yuki had to go as well, Yuki was the favorite, so I never had the chance when I was younger, forced to sit at the piano to play the dull melodies it made.

Runaway. I had to run away, I just had to, if I wanted my passion to fight bloom, I had to take the chance before Yuki could blow it away in ashes. I had abandoned my last name and changed it to something none of my family members could recognize and finally, for the first time, enrolled into a combat school, Signal Academy.

Yellow. I met a fiery girl with long blond hair there. I never really tried to befriend her really, she just befriended me without me knowing, we never even knew each other's names either which could make some things a bit easier, if the tail and ears weren't enough as they were.

Sly. I was a fox Faunus, with the fox ears and tail to prove it well enough. Yet though the only misleading things I have ever done were runaway and change my identity, I never want to go back to my family or to Yuki, she was the entire reason why I ran away in the first place. She had her own dream to become a musician I had my own dream, to become a huntsman and fight the Grimm, that is one thing Yuki never wanted to do but I wanted to do it though.

Trust. I couldn't trust many, Faunus or human, they're all almost all the same. I hid out during the breaks on the roof, eating an orange leaving the peel behind for any bird who was interested in it. I knew there was something that took the orange peels because every day when I came back, the ones from the day before was gone. I couldn't trust anyone so blindly yet though, that was in the inside.

Playful. Ever since I was younger, I was always playful…Yuki used to be playful to until she began to become more serious with music. I was always playful and I always will be, at least until I become a huntsman, then I will start to become more serious.

Misunderstood. Many times I was misunderstood. My parents misunderstanding stood out the most. They never wanted me to go to combat school yet I trained at Signal. I was almost the top of the class…fine almost top ten, I never focused for long enough to get many decent grades but I still passed. And now…I have been accepted to Beacon…to me it was a great honor, but if I had brought it home, my parents would do whatever they could, to put it away in ashes, as if they never wanted me to ever go fight the Grimm, when I have proven that I could.

Hiding. Ever since I ran away, I hid from anyone connected to my parents and/or Yuki or knew them. I did more than change my last name, before I enrolled into Signal; I did what I consider the worst thing to ever do. Taking a knife, it was dull, but sharp enough to leave a wound that would never heal, a wound that would then forever remain…a scar. With it, over on the left side of my face, I cut out the scar to keep myself hidden for a while, a jagged scar out of fear and pain from the middle-left of my forehead, over my left eyelid and continued on its jagged path down my left cheek.

That wasn't the worst idea I ever had, once I considered cutting off my tail and fox ears, but then again, I would feel incomplete, the scar had to do…for now at least.

I kept one thing from my past, now in two pieces, a red scarf that use to be twice of what my height is now, half around my neck, still the scarf it was and the other half around my waist. I wore an orange tee-shirt underneath a green jacket with wider sleeves at the end. I had aqua pants and brown boots. The pants were altered so I could keep my tail out. I did nothing to the orange/yellow hair and fur I had yet though the end of my tail was a white tip. My hair went down to past my ears and had three very short spikes above my forehead and two side bangs, one side bang on one side of my head the other at the other side. The insides of my fox ears were a very light shade of pink and I never wore colored contacts to hide my golden-yellow eyes.

I had twin swords that also served as whips, named Striking Outlash. With a metallic blue blade and yellow handle. The rain guard was split in two with the handle in between, making them two separate blue triangles. There was a flexible gold connecting the blade pieces together when I used them as whips.

My name is Yoko Rayne, hiding in almost plain sight from my family and my past, just so I could pursue my dream and become a hunter to fight the Grimm, hopefully, they will never find me and I will finally be able to get a step closer to becoming a huntsman.

(A/N: I'm just wondering if you would want to choose what each member of Team ASPR would have for their semblance. I already have a few ideas for Akira and Raven, but for Shawn and Yoko, I'm somewhat clueless. I'll decide on what their semblance would be from your suggestions. Just put your suggestions in the review or PM... that is if anyone actually reads what I write.)
