Sorry for my bad english.


Past

House in Atlas

Ceodore was too quite, what was strange. Every day after the training, he keep making stupid and irrelevant questions to Miles until he order to his apprentice to shut up. But today, he just spoke something that Miles didn't pay attention and leave the room, foor the entirely day, Miles didn't heard not even a word from his student mouth. He should look for him. Who knows what kind problem he put himself, but first, attack the fridge. Who could start look for someone with a empty stomach?

But when he entered in the kitchen, Miles start to hear some noises from inside of the fridge, precisely coming from the freezer. When he open the fridge, have a surprise.

-Y-y-you f-f-f-found-d m-me ma-ma-atchoo!

Oh yeah, he remembered. Ceodore asked if he wanted to play hide and seek and unconsciously he nodded just to make the boy shut up. So he spend all day inside of the freezer, hiding from his master who wasn't looking for him until now. With the problem solved, Miles just grab a piece of meat and close the frigde with Ceodore still inside of the freezer.

Come on, Ceodore couldn't be so stupid to stay after his master "find" him, right?

...

...

...

Right?


Combat class

Ceodore actually didn't have the best luck on the world of Remnant. Since his childhood to his actual days, everything seems to getting worst to him. But one thing what happen to him was a jackpot.

Pyrrha was on the combat arena showing her skills in a one against four match. Boy, she is not the champion of Mistral for nothing. She was on the arena fighting against the team CRDL, completely overwhelming her opponents, parring, repeling, dodging and counter-attacking every move from Cardin and his teammates. Damn, he would even clap if Goodwitch didn't demanded silence during the matches. A thought that Weiss shared with him.

She become a little dissapointed for not be able to become Pyrrha's partner, but was happy only being her friend and Ruby is a good partner too. Speaking of her, she saw her leader sitting on Ceodore's side with a lot of chairs to spare. Thing weren't so good between Ruby and her sister lately. Yang not thought a second that Ceodore didn't infected his partner with miasma. Even watching her on the arena overpowering a entirely team make her see that she is wrong. She tried make Ruby stop hang out with the apprentice only to her ignore the complains about her safety.

Back to the arena Pyrrha somehow throw Cardin on the air and send him to the crashed his head on the floor. The match was over. Goodwitch walked to the side of Cardin who only said...

-Luck shot.

... and lost the consciouness.

-Well done ms. Nikos. You shouldn't have any problem to be classified to the tournament.

-Thank you professor.

-Now we have time for one more match, any volunteers? -Asked the professor, but nobody offered to fight, she look around of the arena to choose. -Ms. Belladona, you have been out of the class for a while, maybe you...

-I wanna.

Spoke a guy with gray hair and a cocky smile on the face.

-Mercury, is it? Alright, your opponent will be...

-Actually... i want to fiiiiight... him!

He pointed to Ceodore. Everyone around start to mumble about his choise. Nobody wanted to fight him after he somehow damage Pyrrha's aura, affraid of be infected or happen to them whatever happen to the champiom. Glynda on the other side, was gladly to someone want to train against the apprentice, so he could improve his skills. But first...

-What do you say Ceodore, you accept?


He accepted, now he was walking to the middle of the arena to fight that Mercury guy. With sword on the sheath and shield in the hand, he reach to the middle of the arena.

-Both are ready? -Ceodore and Mercury nodded assuming a fight stance. -Now, begin!

Both dashed, Mercury leg hit with force Ceodore's shield and was trying overpower him, but Ceodore don't make the task easy. He repelled the kick and throw a punch aiming to his face and a shield blow on his back. Mercury dodge the first attack and countered the second one with a kick, he repel the shield and land a blow on Cedore's belly and was caught by surprise when Ceodore shouldered his chest, making him backing off a little.

When he look ahead, countered with his own kick a flying kick from Ceodore. Ceodore then tried to hit his leg with Victoria, but fail. Mercury jumped away from him and shot at Ceodore with a kick. He put the shield in front of him to defend the shot and Mercury take advantage to sweep kick and make Ceodore lost the balance, or not, he put a hand on the floor a give a capoeira kick on Mercury's face.

He backed a little, clean the little of saliva from his cheek. Mercury humphed, then dashed againt the apprentice again. He jumped and give some kicks in midair that Ceodore defended with the shield, he spun around and tries another blow with the shield. Mercury ducked and hit a spin kick on his chest, then Ceodore kicked the leg what hit him making Mercury lost the balance.

Once on the floor, he have to roll to the side to dodge a strike from Ceodore's shield. He kicked his leg makin Ceodore again lost the balance. In midair he put the shield on his leg and the hand on the floor to stop the fall, then tried kick Mercury with the shield, he almost was caught by the kick, he use his own leg to block the attack and removing the shield from his leg, Ceodore was able to land another hit on Mercury when he grab his shield and use it to hit him, he roll a little before go back on two feets.

Ceodore dashed at him and tried a shield bash, but wasn't enough. Mercury repelled the shield and kicked him on the stomach and then on the chin sending him flying. Ceodore was able to land in two feets, but have to raise the shield to block a air bullet. After block the shot, Ceodore charged again and prepared a strike with the shield, Mercury pull back his feet. The leg colide with the metal creating a shockwave. Mercury blocked a kick and dodge a punch and was caught by a Ceodore's elbow on the cheek. He give a rounhouse kick on Ceodore's face and he spin around to kick Mercury's belly, he backed off again.

-Hey, you friend is going pretty good.

Ruby commented to Mercury's teammate who forced a smile.

Mercury run against Ceodore and delivered a tornado kick that Ceodore hardly blocked, it was like his leg was made by steel or something. Another strike from him throw Ceodore's arm to above, he pulled both legs from the floor and kicked Mercury's stomach. He give some steps back and Ceodore use hit his shield on the floor to put himself back on two feets and bashed Mercury's face with the shield and kicked his chest, but when he tried kick his face, he was kicked on the midsection. The impact comme with a air bullet what send him a little away from his opponent.

Mercury already got it how Ceodore fght, then the bell rang ending the class.

-Aww damn. I was having fun. -Spoke Mercury, then Goodwitch come.

-Alright students, that is all for today and remember the Dance is this weekend, but you all will have your first mission on Monday. I will not accept any excuses.

The students leave the arena. Mercury's teammate was waiting for him on the wall. When he finally appeared, he commented.

-Lear is so MUCH fun.

She rolled her eyes.


The calm come back to Beacon after the headmaster spoke on the morning that the man who is coming to Vale was not Ceodore's master. However, he advice to anyone who meet a man with the descritpion that Ironwood give to him not do nothing, just run away. The man destroyed the prototypes of Paladins, a feat almost impossible to any student of Beacon alone.

But the situation not change too much to Ceodore who still was feeling the glare of the other students on him. Not to mention one of his teammates raised his weapon against him, luckly mr. Minuano stopped him before anything worst would happen, but the situation with his team was worst than before. Ren dissapear all the morning, leaving Nora alone and worried, then Pyrrha start to feel guilty for Ceodore situation when was him who lost control and hurt her. He told to her that was his fault and to not worry about it. He said smiling to her and holding her cheek what make her blush.

Then have Ruby who are in bad terms with her older sister because of Ceodore. Yang didn't trust Ceodore. After he damage Pyrrha's aura, Yang become even more overprotective with her sister, refusing to let her come closer to Ceodore or any other guy. Other day, a boy ask to her about the time because he couldn't find his scroll and the last thing he know was that something hit his face and send him flying to one of the CCT window. He survived fortunately. But this didn't make Ruby stop hang out with the apprentice, what make Yang's eyes become red.

If the calm returned to Beacon, not come to the teams RWBY and CNVL.


Ozpin office

He keep looking to Vale, relivied that wasn't him who was coming. But still is not the moment to calm down. This man also use miasma and is very dangerous to any normal human or huntsman. Ironwood didn't have any information about that man, almost like he just dissapeared. So there is no way to know if this man is close to Vale or not.

The thought come out of his mind when the elevator open with Glynda leaving with the apprentice behind her.

-I brought him sir.

-I see. Ceodore, take a sit. -He sit on the chair in front of his desk. -You seems a little nervous. Something wrong?

-It is everytime i come here, is about my master or my past.

-Very perceptive. So you come to that conclusion when Glynda make those questions to you?

-Pretty much. But the reason she would want know about my past is not very clear to me.

-You said that not remember your real name, correct? -He nodded, finally understand where the questions were going. -Glynda make some researches... and maybe she have the answer of who you are.

-Why?

-Excuse me, what?

-Why did she do that?

Both of them look at Glynda who the face was blank, not fazed by the looks. She close her eyes and look for the right words to spoke.

-You said that your master wasn't the responsable for the destruction of Twilight, correct? -Again he nodded. -My researches show that Twilight was destroyed by miasma.

-And all of this to make me think that my master was the responsable? -The question come with a little angry tone that not go through the professors. -I told already that he was not the responsable.

-No one is blaming nobody Ceodore. -Spoke Ozpin. -She just is talking what happened.

-But the reason was that or not.

-Ceodore. -Glynda start. -He was there in the same day your village was destroyed, what more proof you need.

-The proof is that i was there. I don't remember exactly what happened, but i know that my master was not the one who destroyed my village.

-Sorry, but the chances of someone else who use miasma appeaar in the same time...

-Glynda. -Ozpin interrupted. -We are running away from the topic. -He look to Ceodore. -I want to ask to you something Ceodore.

-Say it.

-Do you know the Arc family?

Ceodore make a blank expression, then start to think.

-The name... sounds familiar.

-They were a family o huntsmens that give the birth to warriors since before the great war of eighty year ago. The family was all killed thirteen year ago. -The same age Ceodore was found by his master, he notice. -The last one of the Arc man have at least six childs. -Ceodore then remembered that he once have five sisters. -Only five of his child's bodies were found. They all were girls, the only body what was not found was from the only boy that he have.

He realize where Ozpin was going with that. Also he remembed of a name of a woman.

-Argent...

-Argent Arc was the mother of the childs. -Spoke Glynda. -Do you know the name of her husband?

-... Solaire...

-Solaire Arc.

Ceodore went silent after hear the name. Ozpin look to Glynda with a look saying "don't." But she ignored and when was about to speak, Ceodore spoek.

-My... my father...

-Ceodore...

-Glynda...

-... the body was found filled with...

-I know that my master kill my father.

None of the adults saw that coming.
