Weiss POV

     I was taken home to Atlas after Beacon fell, today though I have been singing at a charity event my father, Jacques, threw to "help" the people of Vale. Now I am at the after party and as I look at a picture of the once great Beacon Academy, the thought of where my two beloved sons could be causes a tear to threaten to fall. After telling off a guy trying to flirt with me, I start to overhear an arrogant woman in the crowd.

Woman: If Vale was arrogant enough to not have a military, I say good riddance.

Weiss: SHUT UP! *everyone attention turns to me*

Jacques: *warning* Weiss.

Weiss: You know nothing! None of you do!

Woman: Excuse me?

Weiss: You're all up here talking about nothing! About your money, your hair, your stupid problems that don't mean anything!

Jacques: *hushed anger* Weiss, that's enough. *grabs my arm*

Weiss: Let go of me!

Jacques: You're embarrassing the family.

Weiss: I said, let go!

      I manage to pry myself from father's grip but fall to the floor, as I recover a little I see that I had unintentionally summoned a borbatusk. The summon first roared before charging at the Karen, yes I know what a Karen is, but before the summon attacked, it was shot and disappeared. Ironwood appeared with his pistol in hand as the Karen yells out.

Karen: Arrest her! *nothing happens* What are you doing?! She's insane, she should be locked up!

Ironwood: She's the only one making sense around here. Thank you for the party, Jacques. *walks out*

Needless to say, Father was very angry about what happened and dragged me to my room.

Jacques: Unbelievable! Do you have any idea what your stunt cost us?!

Weiss: *nervous* I-

Jacques: And don't think I'm just talking about Lien here! Our reputation! Our- our- *angered sigh*

Weiss: *reassured* I want to leave.

Jacques: *surprised* I beg your pardon?

Weiss: *raised voice* I said, I want to leave. I don't want to stay here anymore. I don't want to stay in Atlas anymore. I want to find my son's.

Jacques: Young lady, I don't give a damn about what you want! This is about the Schnee family name and your appatant insistance on dragging it through the mud! It was bad enough when you left Atlas to go to Beacon, but you really did it when you took in those, lab rats, as your children.

Weiss: I have done nothing but fight to uphold the honor of my family name, a name that my son's were given freely out of the kindness of my heart, and a name you married into!

Jacques: *SLAPS me across my cheek*

      I look back at my father appalled at what he just did to me and, for once, I wished my sons weren't here.

Jacques: This behavior is incredibly disappointing. You wouldn't understand the lengths I've gone to, to keep this family where it is. You think running off like your sister will make the Schnee name stronger, you're wrong. Siding with her only defines us.

Weiss: I am not siding with anyone. I'm doing what I feel is right, and that does not include wasting time with all these clueless people in Atlas. *as Jacques rolls his eyes and turns away* The Schnee family legacy isn't yours to leave, it's mine, and I'll do it as a Huntress, and a devoted, loving parent.

Jacques: No. *turns back to me* You're not leaving Atlas. You are not to leave the manor grounds unless I specifically allow it.

Weiss: What?!

Jacques: Your presupposition that you can simply have whatever it is you want, is sure sign of our failure as parents. But from now on, I will give you the full attention you require, starting by keeping you where I can see you. *starts walking away*

Weiss: You can't just keep me from leaving!

Jacques: I can. And the staff here will make sure of it.

Weiss: So now I'm just your prisoner?

Jacques: You are my daughter. You are a child. And children are grounded when they misbehave.

Weiss: This is only going to make things worse Father. People will ask questions. They'll want to know why the heiress to the Schnee Dust Company is suddenly no where to be found.

Jacques: Which is why you are no longer the heiress to the Schnee Dust Company.

Weiss: *appalled* Excuse me?

Jacques: Clearly the trauma you suffered at the Fall of Beacon was too much for you. Which is why you've graciously revoked your claim and passed them on to your brother, Whitely. *My eyes widen in shock* It's time to wake up, and face reality.

Before my Father exits the room he turns back to me.

Jacques: Oh, and beacuse of your trauma, and because you were underage, you have also relinquished your parental rights. So those abominations you call your children, are no longer Schnee's, and as such, all search efforts will cease.

3rd Person POV

Back in Salem's Kingdom

Shockwave: *turns off surveillance video* *to Swoop and Snarl* You see, those humans you call family, don't care about you anymore.

Swoop: *starts breaking down crying hard* No! That's not true!

Snarl: *growing angry* No! You're lying!

Shockwave: This was taken just moments ago. You have been abandoned, the logical thing to do now, is to do what I say.

Snarl: No!

      Snarl transforms and the nano-machines activate.

Snarl starts going beserk, punching and tackling into the walls in rage.

Swoop: Snarl! Stop!

Out of desperation, Swoop's nano-machines also activate.

Swoop rushes in and tries to restrain Snarl, but Snarl simply throws him off and starts going after Swoop in his rage. Swoop does his best to avoid his brother's attacks, even using his Semblance to avoid certain hits. Snarl finally grabbed Swoop and tossed him across the arena, but before Swoop hit the ground something else triggered in him and his robot body started transforming.

Suddenly, Swoop is hovering in midair, before he can process what's going on, Snarl is back on the attack with his Semblance and fires his spike arrows. Swoop responds with his clones to avoid the hit, then with newfound speed, he flies across the arena and activates guns that activate on his shoulders and fires them at his brother. Snarl is hit and tumbles backwards but recovers and also transforms.

Swoop continues his new, and intense, aerial maneuvers, after firing two missiles at his older brother, Swoop then dives in, but Snarl managed to endure the missiles and waited for Swoop to get close, then turned and used his spiked tail to slam Swoop into the wall. Swoop collapses to the ground after he hits the wall, Snarl then stands over his brother.

Swoop: *scared* Snarl. Snarl, please. It's me, your brother.

Snarl stops himself midway through his attack and his eyes actually turn blue, he then looks down at Swoop, who has now transformed back to his kid form due to exhaustion, Snarl then stepped back in horror and transformed back into his kid form.

Snarl: Swoop!

Before Snarl could reach Swoop though, an Insecticon picked them both up in either hand and tossed them back into the seperate cages.

Snarl: Swoop! Swoop, are you okay?!

Swoop: I know why you're upset, I'm sad about what happened to Mommy too.

Snarl: I'm so, so sorry. For everything.

Swoop: It's okay. Brothers get into fights. Just take greater care to control your anger.

Snarl: *sniffles* I promise.

Weiss POV

     I just figured out that my younger brother, Whitely, wanted my title taken away, and he also considered my children lower than trash. I collapse on my bed and break down crying-

Weiss: *through tears* Snarl, Swoop, I am so sorry, *sniffles* for everything. *sniffles* I wasn't strong enough to protect you. *sniffles*

After several minutes, I finally slow my crying and come to a new resolution. I walk to my curtains and close them, I move my bed and my foot stool to make a big space for me to practice. I then go to my nightstand and open up my suitcase containing my sword, Myrtenaster, I plan to train myself and, in particular, my summoning, then I'm going to leave Atlas and try to find my two beloved sons.

Weiss: Look out for each other, Mommy's coming to get you.

(A/N): Sorry, I'm on a Dinobot, and Transformers, high right now so I kinda can't stop feeling excited about this story and want to write more.
