Let me be honest with all of you. i hate this chapter and i wanted to re-write it but my friends said it was good so hereit is.

Let's go back to the beginning.


Fear, hunger, and desperation turn on receptors in our brains that allow us to use muscles that, in other circumstances, are not being used. Our pain receptors turn off, our hearts pump more blood through the bloodstream, and we store tremendous amounts of heat and pressure in our heads, disturbing the aura muscle.

The aura is a muscle in our brain that is dormant. It is unknown why it lays asleep by default, but when it gets used for the first time, our brain starts using it more often. The training in Aura manipulation is to control said muscle, like going to the gym or training in swordsmanship to handle a sword.

Well, I'm not like other people; my parents explained why I'm not like other people. Different people have excellent shields that protect them, and I have incredible eyes that make me see flying people and numb to emotions.

I'm not jealous; my father told me I have a cool shield, too, but I must work harder to get it...

I don't want to because then that would mean my father died protecting me, the same thing that happened with all the Arc family; this is why I train so much because I know why the Arc family was destroyed.

One day, as typical as others, I was training my eyes, just for fun, next to the waterfall, and that is when I heard a man's voice calling me; it was not my father. My father was hidden in a bush next to my mother. They constantly check on me for a few minutes and then return home.

When they left, I opened my eyes and saw a man in the woods with blond hair and... Dark blue eyes.

I immediately got up and followed him. "Wait, who are you?" I said as I stumbled through the woods.

I felt a bit lost even if I knew these woods like the palm of my hand. I got to a cave, a cave that was not supposed to be there, where a mysterious voice called me, "My son, please, come close to me." my eyes were itchy. I felt my body heavy, but my body started walking on its own towards the cave.

I walked for what felt like hours. I stumbled onto a campfire where a man who looked exactly like me was sitting on the ground; he looked at me and smiled.

"my son, you are strong, stronger than me; with our sword, you will achieve greater things than me, but I heard from other arc members that you asked your new father to forge a new weapon. Is that right?" the man asked.

"Yes, I did; I feel empty; fighting becomes an assignment, not something I want to do." jaune said, looking at this man in his eyes. "I feel like I'm cheating when I hold the sword. Don't get me wrong, I will still use it, but I feel I need to learn more about what makes me a warrior, what makes me a human, not a killing machine that can only be seen like a monster."

"So you decided to let go of what makes you an Arc just to feel something when you fight?! Qrow must feel proud of you despite not actually being your birth father, leaving behind what makes you an Arc! MY SACRIFICE WAS FOR NOTHING! " the man said, racing his voice.

"I'm not an Arc; I know you die protecting me, but I love my mother and father so much that it doesn't matter if I was born as an Arc; my parents didn't care what blood ran through my veins; they took care of me like one of them, they called me son! Not Jaune Arc, so I will call them Mom and Dad!" I said as pictures of my parents passed through my mind.

The man smiled. "Is that so... Let me tell you a story, jaune." the man looked at the fire.

"It started at the beginning of everything, more like the beginning of our family, The Arc family; while every human was born from the ashes that la Muerte was leaving behind while she walked through the world, all the royal families were born from the grains of salt the father ocean gently placed on the sand of the beaches.

Father Ocean loved us and the other humans born from la Muerte, but she hated us, all humanity. She destroyed and rebuilt the world many times, but humans always prevailed; Father Ocean saw that we were fragile, so he gave us aura. But still, the fight was one-sided, so he gave us semblance, the mirror of the soul and our personality. But still, we always lost battle after battle. He then saw why. The flesh of these monsters sent by this goddess could only be pierced by a sharp blade, so he gave us the knowledge of weaponry and survival instincts.

But it was still not enough; humanity needed something more, but when Father Ocean tried to help the humanity that was created from the ashes of the goddess, he could not gift them a new ability. La Muerte noticed that Ocean was helping humanity and put a curse on her creation.

Father Ocean created 12 houses out of the 12 families that Ocean created and gave them a unique ability apart from what I already mentioned.

We were kind of special to Father Ocean. We were courageous and helped others, but we were too weak to fear, so we received the eyes of the calm ocean, no emotions towards anything when we use them, but there is more; we see spirits that still have things to do on earth, our straight multiplies 10x, and we see things slower, oh by the way there is this weird ability that all royal families have we can leave our bodies and travel the spirit world.

Your eyes when they are activated, People see a little white dot in blue ocean-colored eyes. Lines start to appear when you keep training your eyes, lines that always cross that dot vertically and horizontally, and after four lines appear in your eyes, two circles appear around the dot, each one bigger than the other; that is when you will know you achieve the highest level your eyes can offer, you will see things slower every time your eyes get stronger.

But the catch is that your semblance and aura are locked, and no one can unlock it. By the way, our ability is the only one that has a side effect. Most of us Arc have seen someone we love dearly die; that's how we unlock our aura. Even I saw my father die, people said that I unlocked it by the power of love, but no, I'm the same as everyone else; we are not invincible, Jaune. We are more vulnerable than the other families, so be careful.

We'll After that, a third god that called himself Animmo created the faunos, elves, dwarfs, and the 12 celestial dragons.

But that is a story for another day; I still have much to tell you; come back when you have time." the man said and looked at me.

"just one question: where is this going to lead me?" I asked the man, getting up.

"You are the last of the Arc, Jaune. Whether you like it or not, someday you must fight the 12 celestial dragons and la muerte. We sealed her once. Now that she has broken free, the world is in danger.

And well, the celestial dragons had always liked to fight the arc family because in our full strength with semblance and aura, we are practically invincible, and the dragons enjoy fighting strong humans. They find it amusing." the man said and looked at the entrance of the cave

"Well, son, it was a good time, but you must return to your body. The sun is getting low, and it is not a good idea to leave your body without a soul in the night here in the spirit world." the man said, pointing at me.

"wait, return where?" but it was too late; the only thing I felt was the warmth of the body of someone carrying me in their arms like a baby and the giggle of the only woman in my life who can giggle so adorably that warms my heart. That is mom and dad.
