The first regular day for everyone is about to begin. Night went by quickly and that either excites or annoys students all around. Many of them aren't morning people. Y/N is one of them, but his night was the worst ever. He had a long nightmare, reminissing about the past. He felt like he was back in the hellhole he called 'home' before running away. And shortly after her woke up, his body twitched violently for a while. Balling his fists, the boy broke through and is in the bathroom right now. Of course he hates to look at himself, seeing the several scars from cuts, beatings and bones piercing his skin. It's never a great sight for anyone to see, that's why he tries to keep his limbs and torso covored as good as his clothes allow him to.

Y/N:" I feel like crap, I look like a mess and I already have a feeling that today will just stir up a bigger storm than yesterday. Ugh, I hate this already."

The only comfort he has right now is silence. Aside from a few people in the hallway, there really isn't anything going on. Y/N assumes that most people are already eating breakfast or sitting in class. His schedule looks quite normal. Regular lessons with the staff, lunch break and some combat training from time to time. He also remembers that he doesn't need to wear a uniform, so that gives the E/C eyed boy a lot more freedom. In the end he just picks out a black button-up shirt, a pair of blue jeans and black sneakers while putting his katana on his belt. It already feels a lot better than expected, knowing he can fight back whenever the need should come up. When he steps out of his dorm and locks the door, his scroll goes off. Y/N immediatly looks at it, only to see that Ozpin would need him right after classes end for the day.

Y/N:" I promise, if this is another one of his so called 'promises', I will feed him his own ontestins."

The anger from yesterday still stings and he is really not to keen on knowing what the grey haired bastard is planning for him. But that's the least of his worries for now as Y/N makes his way to class, seeing just a few people in there. Their faces are strangers to him, so he doesn't pay attention to them. Y/N just walks to the last row and sits down next to the window, putting his books and pens out, awaiting the lessons. It would've been more interesting, if he ran into someone he could actually have a normal conversation with. Team RWBY and Team JNPR are out of consideration while the other teams avoid him. All but one.

???:" Hey there, big guy."

As Y/N looks up, he is greeted by a girl. Brown hair, brown eyes and a matching outfit. Sunglasses and a barret. She doesn't look older than him so far, yet something intruiging lingers in her.

Y/N:" What's the problem?"

???:" Nothing much. I just saw you sitting back here on your own. Where is your team?"

Y/N:" In case you missed the initiation yesterday, which is impossible to be honest, my name is Y/N..."

Coco:" Nice name, hotshot. I'm Coco Adel. Leader of Team CVFY. We're a second year team and just got a few days off from missions to recover."

Y/N:" And that makes me care because..?"

Coco:" Feisty, aren't you? We're your superiors. This means we should get a bit more respect from you freshlings."

Y/N:" Excuse me, but I am not someone you should demand things of. I'm not known as a helping hand or something. And you say all of you are superior? I'd like to test that theory one day...Maybe then I consider being a bit nicer. Until then, you should get out of my way and never ask questions about me...Have a good day, Miss Adel."

Coco:" Oh, you're laying the gauntlet down? You just earn-"

Y/N:" The professor is here. You should go back to your seat."

Coco is getting a bit annoyed by Y/N's attitude towards her, yet she has to bite back anything she is about to say. Nobody really put up with her like that and still Y/N has the guts to do so on his first meeting with her. None of that matters though at the moment as the professor is about to begin his lecture when a group of students barges into the room. The members of both Team RWBY and JNPR just toppled over each other as the rest of the class looks at them. Professor Port, as he introduced himself, is just giving them a short warning before letting them all go to their seats. Pyrrah has her eyes on Y/N for a moment before she has to focuss on the lecture.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Classes went by pretty easy and still, most students are bored out of their minds. Homework and assigned readings have to be done throughout the week, so that's what the eager people do while others spend their time going out into the city or playing games or something. That idea doesn't apply to Y/N and Pyrrah though. They are both on their way towards Ozpin's office again, not even looking at each other. They keep a good distance from each other, yet the ride with the elevator forces them to stand closer. The two have no idea what awaits them when they arrive, but Y/N has a bad feeling about this. And he should be right, because once the doors open, he spots the two people who are responsible for his pain and misery. In front of Ozpin stand F/N and M/N Nikos. The two are confused when they see Y/N, because he doesn't show any of the signature traits of the family.

F/N:" Headmaster, are you sure this is the right person? The boy doesn't look like our son."

Y/N:" Stop calling me your son and get out of here already!"

Ozpin:" Y/N, I have to ask you to stay and listen to them. I wanted to tell you right after your first lesson, but your parents insisted on keeping their visit a secret."

Y/N:" They are not my parents! They are the monsters who drove me away from themselves. They made me the way I am and yet they regret not one bit of it! Why should I listen to them for another second?!"

M/N:" Y/N, I-I am so sorry...We never meant for any of this to happen. It was a mistake we made, but we didn't realize it at the time."

F/N:" We always wanted you to be part of the family. You were born a Nikos and our blood is flowing through your veins as well as Pyrrahs' veins."

Y/N:" I wish I wasn't born into this family at all. All you did is beat me, starve me and cut me...You never mentioned me to any other relatives, because I wasn't as intelligent as you wanted me to be. I was always just your stress reliever, your punching bag...I still have the scar on my back from when 'daddy' took a shard of glass and ripped my back open with it. Oh, I was bleeding like a slaughtered pig. Wasn't that funny?! Yes, you two laughed!"

What happens next just fuels the fire even more as M/N steps forward and slaps Y/N right across the face. Several seconds pass until she realizes her mistake, so she pulls her arm back and hides behind her husband. Y/N on the other hand stays completely silent as he averts his eyes from everyone. His cheek is lighting up red from the slap. Pyrrah on the other hand is shocked and has her hands in front of her mouth, trying to hide the shock she just felt.

F/N:" Y-Y/N, she didn't mean to...M/N wasn't thinking straight. She acted in the heat of the moment."

Y/N:" Heat of the moment you say? Heat of the moment?! Did the moment last twelve god damn years?! You never regretted a single second of this. You were just out to get me back and continue doing the same things you did before."

Pyrrah:" Y/N, I--"

Y/N:" Don't touch me! I am not your brother, I am not their child and I will never forgive any of you...What kind of sick game were you playing anyways? Forgetting my birthdays, leaving me to rot on any holidays, even in the summer when it's crazy hot outside...You even through me out in the winter and chained me to a tree, letting me freeze. Oh and Sanctum?...They never heard anything about me either. They accepted the fact that I was no more and so, I never had the proper education about Grimm, Dust, history, combat or anything remotely close to it.........And how could I forget my semblance? Mommy still remembers, doesn't she?"

The couple just nods at his question while Pyrrah is left in the dark at the moment. Ozpin just sighs and pulls up a video of Y/N interrogating some small criminal in the local police departement.

--- Video ---

The room wasn't really fancy. It has a table, two chairs and a lamp above it. The wall left from it had a see through mirror in it for other officers to observe what was about to happen. A door unlocked and Y/N stepped in, wearing a coat and a normal police uniform under it. His face said it all when he laid eyes on his victim. The man was short, maybe 5'7". He had short dark grey hair, pale skin and some stubble on his chin. Nothing out of the ordinary. A moment later Y/N sat down across from the man who just looked at Y/N with slight panic.

Y/N:" Judging from your reaction, you know who I am around here."

Criminal:" Officer L/N, you have captured some of my men already. And now you're having me here...W-what's this about?"

Y/N:" WE can do this two ways. Either we do the easy way, meaning I will leave you mostly unharmed...Or we do the hard way where I will use everything at my disposal to get information out of you...Which one will it be?"

Criminal:" I'd like t---"

Y/N:" It doesn't matter what you want! We'll do it MY way. Soooo....got a name?"

Criminal:" W-what?"

Y/N:" Do you have a name? God, criminals these days are dumber than bread!"

Rico:" Rico Cyan."

Y/N:" Nice to meet you, Rico. You know why you're here...you robbed several stores, killed innocent people and you were close to making your way to Vacuo, hiding from the law."

Rico:" That was the plan, yes. But then you and your stupid friends made it fall apart."

Y/N:" Hmm, what would your family say?"

Rico:" Family? Leave my wife and daughter out of this!"

Y/N:" So I was right. You have a family of your own. I must say: the three of you make a good team. I never thought I'd see a man like you step into the dark side of life...Killing civilians, breaking the law, only to gather money for his own family...Tell me: what did you think you can get out of this?"

Rico:" The world has been treating us like garbage. I was working as an assistent for some kind of doctor...He payed less than anyone ever expected, never cared about my wellbeing and yelled at me whenever he got the chance to do so...I wanted some equality and revenge! This guy had it coming!"

Y/N:" Revenge...Equality...You sound like you have some pent up aggression in you...You've been a criminal for how long?"

Rico:" Five years. I was getting payed better and finally had the chance to get my revenge."

Y/N:" And justify that by doing it for your family...For the two ladies who are. Sorry, were everything to you...They just left you recently and you were getting closer to breaking down from all of the misery you endured."

Rico:" I'm not letting myself being lectured by a damn kid! Get a real officer in here."

That didn't sit well with Y/N as he got up and walked around the table. He was merely a few inches away from Rico who was trying to break free from the handcuffs. Y/N just spun the cair a bit and put his foot between Rico's legs. It was when the older man looked up that he knew, the tides were about to turn for the worse.

Y/N:" You amuse me, Mr Cyan. You think you're the only one who was hurt in this world. Making moves towards a better future for yourself while endangering several lifes every damn day! Oh, thi is good! I'm excited!"

And that was when the room changed. The grey walls were now slightly brown and falling apart, the light was flickering and Y/N had a different expression on his face, smiling from ear to ear. A blade was in his left hand as well, reflecting some of the light towards Rico who was about to freak out.

Y/N:" It's showtime, isn't it?! Come on, Rico! Let's play!"

Y/N just grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and dragged him to the nearest wall, pressing him up against it. This was usual business for the teen, but Rico was terrified. He had tears in his eyes as the small blade drew closer to his face. And then, with just a little bit of pressure, Y/N was cutting the man's left cheek. The cut was bleeding not long after while the H/C haired boy was anjoying the show.

Y/N:" It's fun, right?! Being lectured by a kid as you said?! Is this what you expected?! Is this how you wanted your day to go?!"

Rico:" No no no, please spare me! I didn't do anything. I'm just a small town criminal."

Y/N:" YES, YOU ARE! You're the lowest of the low! You're a disgrace to every higher ranked criminal! Even Roman Torchwick would be disappointed in you!"

Rico:" Please don't kill me! I have a wife and a kid!"

Y/N:" You had! There's nothing left for you, is there?! You rat can't even survive on the streets without your gang! Isn't this a nice show? Huh?......Answer me!"

Rico:" Ye-yes, it i-is."

Y/N was fed up with him already, but he decided to have some more fun. He brought the man over to the table again and opened a folder with some very crucial information.

Y/N:" Is this the real position of your hideout?!"

Rico:" Yeeees! I told you it was at that location."

Y/N:" You didn't tell me anything! Now...If you wanna survive this, you will tell your men to surrender themselves to the police before my men rush in and take down every single one of you while I take you out all...by...myself!"

Rico:" Why are you doing this? We were all innocent!"

Y/N:" If you were innocent, there wouldn't be a single crime commited ever. You disgust me! You are a virus! A cancer! And I will erase you from this world unless you do what I say!!!"

Y/N then put Rico's phone on the table and slid it closer to the man's mouth. He dialed in the correct phone number and waited for anyone to pick up.

???:" Hello?"

Rico:" Put me on speaker."

???:" Why? Wgat's g---"

Rico:" Just do it already!"

A short groan was heard when the conformation came, so Rico made himself ready to speak.

Rico:" Everyone, listen and listen closely. The police has surrounded the whole hideout...You have no chance of escape. Surrender yourselves to them or we all will die!"

???:" Are you crazy? We can t-"

Y/N:" Tell them that we're not joking. Come on!"

Rico:" They aren't joking...Please just do what I say! I will be killed if you don't obey me. Please for the love of god, just turn yourselves in already!"

But before they answer, chaos breaks loose and the police rushed in, taking down every single criminal they could find. The hideout was turning into a mess and so were the people, but Y/N wasn't satisfied yet. He crushed the phone without much resistance and turned Rico onto his back. The crazed look on Y/N's face was still present, but his play time was interrupted by another officer. He sighed and deactivated his semblance, shoving the chubby man out of the door and sitting down in his chair again.

--- Video End ---

When the video ends, F/N, M/N and Pyrrah don't know what to say. Y/N is just pacing around the room, holding his head for a moment. It may seem disturbing to the other people in the room, but Ozpin knows that the boy never wanted to hurt anyone like this. As a headmaster of one of the most prestigious academies in Remnant, he knows many things about different people, like his students for example. Y/N is an interesting case, although the two won't see eye to eye ever again. 

F/N:" Why did you do these things?"

M/N:" What were you thinking?"

Y/N:" Sure, blame it all on me. I was your sacrificial lamb for years and here we are again, you're blaming everything on me...Oh Pyrrah, the poster child, bever would've done such things. No, she would just have handed these people over and claimed the praise from everyone. Bravo...Bravo to you two, for raising the most innocent girl here in Beacon. You've outplayed yourself with that..."

M/N:" Y/N my boy, listen. If we would've known that you'd use your semblance for good, we wouldn't have taken these drastic measures. We were a family until you decided to use it on me..."

Y/N:" And how did you pay me back? By erasing me from existance...By making everyone forget about me. You didn't even sign any official documents for me. Everything you ever told anybody was a lie! No one wanted me, no one cared for me...No one believed in me!"

Pyrrah:" But we are your family! I tried to get to know about the whole situation, but mom and dad refused to tell me anything. I always had a hunch that there was more to this than I knew."

Y/N:" Don't let me get in your way then. Spend the day with these hypocrites...Talk, go out for dinner, go dancing, go to the movies...Just like you did before."

Y/N then leaves again as fast as he could and stormed into the city. He doesn't care where he ends up, as long as it's far enough away from these monsters. A serious headache is pounding in his head as he moves, not caring about the people who try to help him. No, he bites back the pain and keeps moving.

Meanwhile the Nikos family and Ozpin remain in the office as the grey haired man sits down at his desk. He has never met such a disfigured family before and still there is a prime example in front of him. F/N and M/N are sitting down as well while Pyrrah remains on her feet. She feels sad and disappointed in herself, knowing that the trust between sibling can never be reformed.

Ozpin:" Let me recap: you, F/N and M/N, cast out your first child because of his semblance. You deemed him unworthy of being a Nikos. You beat him, you cut him, starved him and then finally, you never said anything about him to anyone..."

F/N:" Ozpin, we...we were wrong...We were wrong to think that this treatment was okay. we know we hurt him and that we will never be close to becoming a family ever again...I just wish it would have been different..."

M/N:" Y/N wasn't weak...We told him that he was...We never taught him the basics of anything... All we did was a big mistake...He and Pyrrah should've been siblings and yet...we cast him away...We're the disgrace of this family, not him..."

Ozpin:" Pyrrah, what do you have to say for yourself?"

Pyrrah:" You two are seriously sickening me right now. Keeping my own brother a secret from me...injuring him, physically and mentally...You two disrupted the bond we had with him...His soul is fractured and any shard of trust he had is pulverized. Even the media now report about the suposidly forgotten son of the Nikos line...This is unbelievable. I can't stand here and do nothing...I will try to find him and talk things out with him..........You should get back home...Until some day."

It's then Pyrrah is the one who leaves the office and goes back to her own dorm. Her mind is running wild as she flops down on her bed. The rest of her team seems to be somewhere else, so the young girl is left with her own thoughts. It hurts her and yet, she never thought that it was as bad as it really is. Her own brother cast out, hurt and a nobody to their parents.
