chapter 2
Y/n watches from the top of trees as he watches Ruby complete her initiation into Beacon.
He does notice something strange. As he watches Ruby and Weiss wander. Nearby he sees a wandering spirit. Concerned and curious he jumps down and approaches the spirit.
Y/n: Hail. Ghost.
The ghost turns to face him.
Ghost: Who are you? Where am I?
Y/n: Not where you should be. But I will help you. Do you remember where you came from?
Ghost: Yes. It was somewhere nearby. I remember someone chanting in my head as I woke up.
Y/n: I would like you to take me there. I will make sure you are put back to rest.
Ghost: Yes. Please. I never thought I'd want to go back to being dead.
The ghost leads Y/n to the site of a dead necromancer.
Y/n: The fool, he has failed his ritual.
Y/n gathers the necromancer's tools. Decades ago necromancy became a art that was forgotten. Ever since Y/n killed the great vampire lord known as Aldrax.
Y/n managed to reverse the necromancer's spell as the ghost disappeared.
Y/n: The dead should be allowed rest.
Y/n knows that if there is one necromancer, there is bound to be more. So for now he must be on guard.
Y/n goes back up to the trees and watches Ruby finish the initiation.
Y/n knew that he had his work cut out for him. He was familiar with Salem's contract on silver eyed warriors. A taste of her diety given blood. Apparently a divine taste, not like feasting on an immortal vampire.
Like most vampires, the temptation was appealing for Y/n. But once Y/n met Summer, that changed everything.
That night Y/n went to a nearby blood bar. One of the many hidden establishments where Vampires can safely get their fill. Most of the blood available however is crappy substitutes to human blood.
Y/n can't complain, since it is his fault that the blood bars have only substitutes anymore.
He walked into the doors and as per normal everyone inside caught a whiff of his daywalker blood.
The bartender saw Y/n come in and sit down.
Bartender: What will it be then?
Y/n: Goat.
The bartender nods and fills a glass with goat blood and puts it on the table. Y/n pulls out a gold coin and places it on the table as payment.
Bartender: The humans have been getting reckless. Apparently another group of monster hunters has gone rampant.
Y/n: Let me guess, against their own kind?
Bartender: Fifth one this month.
Y/n: Any idea of why?
Bartender: Beats me. Apparently this isn't just humans either. The strangest things have been happening around here.
Y/n: Like?
Bartender: Sirens have been seen in the city.
Y/n: Sirens? There isn't any water around here.
Bartender: Right?! Normally you'll find sirens near a river or something.
Y/n: I found a failure of a necromancer dead.
Bartender: That's back in style?
Y/n: I wouldn't say that.
Bartender: Also. Apparently the werewolves have been getting pissed off lately. The silver bloods have been pushing them.
Y/n: More than usual?
Bartender: Yeah. The silver bloods haven't been discriminating lately. There new leader has been ordering children to be killed.
Y/n: Damn.
Bartender: No better than the Sun Maw order treats us.
Y/n: We brought that on ourselves.
Bartender: Maybe. But times have been changing ever since Aldrax died.
Y/n: Yeah? I haven't noticed.
Bartender: Well, maybe you will soon.
Y/n gets up and leaves after finishing his drink.
Y/n thinks about the news he has. Things are changing, which is never good. Y/n knows that if things get too chaotic, only the innocent will suffer. But he also knows that monster hunters would rather keep monsters a secret in general.
But he couldn't help but wonder why certain monster hunters have gone rogue and began hurting humans. What power gas possessed them?
However that was not his problem. Ruby is his main priority, only if it threatens her will he act in her defense.
The night is still young, and Y/n sits atop a tree outside the team Rwby dorm in his bat form to make sure he doesn't attract attention. He sits and waits, vigilant. He knows that his daughter is in danger, for things she could not control.
But for now Y/n will have patience, her enemies will come to her. He'd rather hide his identity to her. But he knows that at some point he will have to directly help her in battle.
Meanwhile the Sun Maw order, is planning a little visit to Beacon academy.
