A/N: So funny thing I posted chapter two on Mother's Day. And I'll tell you what, I had no idea it was Mother's Day. So it was a happy little accident, and having the title like that was Even funnier for me. Enjoy chapter 3

Chapter 3: Remember 'Me'.

Age 1

Babies have an easy life I'll tell you what.

The most they have to do is Eat,Sh(Language), Sleep, and try not to hit your head. Mom really had to pay attention to that last one. Other than that, it was an easy early life.

Mom really does her best. First-time parents are like that especially when the father is not around, and by the looks of it, he never will. Don't know the full story of it, maybe later I'll ask. But for now, I'm doing my hardest challenge yet.

"Come on sweet heart! You can do it!" Mom loves to cheer

'I'm trying woman!'

Slowly but surely standing. Now for a step..1...2...3

Little steps. Don't rush, eyes on the price, oh dear I believe I might be falling. Is that why the ground ge-.

OOF

sigh... This is going to take some time.

Why do I feel like I'm forgetting something important?

Age 2

If you can walk the walk, you can talk the talk.

"Sweet heart, please say 'ma ma'"

I really want to say 'fuck' cause I know for a fact, who she is going to blame for that.

Turn out the two people who work for Pietro like to babysit me. I think I heard them say something about 'teach her who's good with kids'.

Funny how I never got their names. I think it was Jack and Jill or something like that. They always baby-talk me, but I don't pay attention to them.

Pietro on the other hand was an inventor from what I saw. Always making things and creating cool new stuff. However, that wasn't what got me interested in him.

His last name was Polendina.

And for some reason that name. Always made me cry. And I don't know why?

"Sweet heart are you okay? Oh please don't cry?!" Mom asked

I don't know? "ma ma"

Age 3

Kids are cruel creatures.

"Hey look that kid can't see!" "I want to see him trip and fall!" "What a loser!" "I bet he doesn't know what color his hair is!"

It's black kid, same as all of you.

Real pieces of work I'll tell you what. Picking on the short one in the park and the one with the different colored eyes. I just hope Mom doesn't jump in.

" Hey leave him alone!"

"Run is the animal!" "She gonna bite us!" "Mommy!" "Im gonna die!"

Yea, you better run.

I turn around and was met by a slightly taller Faunus girl.

"Are you okay? Those kids were ganging up on you."

"Yeah, I'm fine. They always do this. They mostly just talk a lot about my eyes I think they like them." No, they don't. But I need to play the dumb naive kid. Can't be fighting everyone I see.

"Oh. That's nice?"

"Do you like them?"

"Yes! They're very unique. Same color as my hair." She shakes her head moving her hair.

Aw, cute.

"White."

"Yea... Wait you can see?!"

Always could, but thank you for noticing.

"Yea. Mom said my eyes are special." But not too special, I forget why?

"Oh. Where is your mom by the way."

I point in the direction behind her.

"She's behind the tree watching me." Sure enough, she quickly hides behind it, acting like she wasn't there the whole time.

"Wanna meet her" I take her hand and lead the way.

"I don't feel like I got much of a choice now."

"Nah... By the way I'm Seth."

"Fiona. Nice to meet you."

Well, not all kids are cruel.

Age 4

My mom is a scary lady.

How do I know this well...

"I WILL MAKE YOU REGRET YOU EVER DECIDED TO COME TO MY PART OF MANTLE!"

She is currently planting her foot firmly between someone's lungs and or colon.

How did this happen? Well, you see.

Mom really wanted to have her 'little gem' invite his friend to the park. Nothing wrong with that right? However, the relationship between humans and Faunus are not the best here in Mantel. So when a group of adults decided to make fun of Fiona and my friendship.

Mom took it upon herself to personally introduce them to the ground.

By that, I mean hitting a Muscle Buster on one of the poor guy and using another guy as a stepping stone. Weird how the wind is picking up now.

"Umm, Seth? don't you think we should stop her?" Fiona asked shyly behind me.

You know for a four-year-old I'm more relaxed than her. She's only three years older than me, but I still feel the more mature one here. Oh, wait never mind it makes sense. I think I just got so used to this by now.

"Fine, I'll stop it." walking toward her I can see people around me looking at my Mom like she's about to end all of Mantle with a single punch. And yet no one is trying to stop her.

I pull on her jacket. and she looks down.

"Mom I'm hungry, can we go home?" usually this always works.

"Sure sweet heart. But right after I finish what I started. Okay?"

"Okay."

"SETH!"

sigh.. pull my leg why don't you Fi

"Please can we go now? People are staring at us." I could care less if people stare, I just don't want you to get detained. Again.

I think that got her attention because she started to look around us. Yea, people were staring mostly at her, or the bodies around her.

"Yea.. your right let's go home. Fiona I can take you back home as well, come on let us go."

She might be scary, but I know she means well.

..

..

I hope.

Age 5

Explosions could be heard outside. That's a typical Friday night for everyone in Mantle. However, this time was different.

The sounds of people screaming and yelling could be heard all over. My mom quickly looked outside and saw an angry mob outside our home. By the looks of it, they were all heading somewhere. She quickly told me to stay inside while she went and have a look.

'Bad choice Mom, leaving a kid home alone.'

I got up, went to the living room, and turned on the tv to see what was happening.

"Breaking news in Mantle. A large explosion has taken the lives of many at the local Schnee's Dust Mine Facility."

'Schnee why does that name sound so familiar.'

"Reports say the explosion was an accident. But many people believe that the cause of the explosion was a lack of safety for the workers. For now, all eyes are on Mantel and the head of the Schnee dust company."

'Schnee? I heard that name before but where?'

Think brain Think!

'Tell me something.'

...

What? Was that music?

Suddenly a pain in my chest appeared out of nowhere.

The pain was so much that it cause me to cry out in pain.

"AHHH!" why... why does it hurt so much where did this come from?

"A price"

"A curse"

My head starts to hurt now. It's like so many things are heading to my head and it doesn't stop. The more I think the more it hurts.

So many thoughts are going to my head, So many faces I have never seen before, who are these people and why do I hear music in the background?

In the end, the pain was so much that I pass out.

When I woke up.

I was in my mother's lap, as she gently caressing my hair.

What happened? Where am I?

"Mom, what happened?"

She looked down at me and a small smile appeared on her face.

"We are in a bullhead sweet heart."

"why?"

"We are moving to a little city called Argus."

"why?"

my mother took a moment to think of a good answer. Maybe an easier way to explain it to a five-year-old.

"Mantle right now is not a safe place to be living in now... Let's just say I'm worried about what the people were going to do once I stepped outside our home."

Worried?

OH...right.. the people were angry over what happened.

"What about our home? and Fi? What about Pietro?"

What's going to happen to them?

"They are going to be okay. Fiona got her family in Mantle. And Pietro is going to Atlas to help out. I promise we will go and visit them again later."

I hope you are right. Only time will tell.

I close my eyes again.

But this time a picture of two people appears.

One was a short girl with White hair, light blue eyes, and a scar that went over her left eye. The other was another short girl with Orange hair, green eyes, and a pink hair bow.

What was that? Those two... Ow... my heart hurts.

'What is happening to me?'

It feels like I'm forgetting so much now. Why was I here again?

...

...

'I need to start remembering these people.'
