It has been a couple of years since Aurora saves Amber. Aurora is now walking down a city. Amber explained to him why the situation with Amber is really bad.

Amber is a person known as a Fall Maiden. She has the power to manipulate nature itself and, if wants, she could easily destroy towns. The person, Cinder, was chasing Amber to get her power, do she could be feared by everyone around the world. So she was thankful that Aurora has been there, at the right place and time. Still, Aurora was unsure if he can take protection responsibly.

Right now, he is wandering around an abandoned Atlas Base. His night vision is on, and he is looking everywhere. As he is looking everywhere in the base, he than thought to himself.

'This place looks like it has been abandoned, or more likely, attacked. I have to be careful. There could still be come enemies that could be here. If I let my guard down, it's my end here."

As he looks around, he didn't notice a pair of golden cat eyes staring at him. The eyes than glared, and there is a black sword unfolding behind the person.

As Aurora looks around, he than sees a computer of sorts. He than used a hard drive and inserted it to see how much information it has inside of itself. There wasn't that much information, but it does talk about the new model Atlas Knights.

They are known as the Atlas Knight-200's. They are said to be way more advance than the previous models that Aurora is possessing.

These androids possess a more slender, humanoid appearance than their predecessors. They are clad in white armor, with their black robotic workings visible underneath. Their armor is thin at the midsection, neck and joints, but their chest and legs appear well-protected. There are sheaths, so that the rifles are slung diagonally across their backs.

Speaking of rifles, the AK-200s are armed with handheld rifles of the same type used by their human counterparts, which are called the Atlas Soldiers, rather than their predecessors' built-in firearms. While they are not terribly accurate with these weapons, they can be pretty powerful what they're grouped in rather large numbers by saturating targets with fire. Aside from rifles, the AK-200s possess straight built-in blades along their forearms which they can use in melee combat.

AK-200 models were also more intelligent than their predecessors, which is according to James Ironwood

They can be deployed by free-fall airdrop from Atlesian VTOL dropships, dropping roughly ten per ship directly into contested areas. In combat, they are quite effective against the Grimm, and are seen killing lesser Grimm such as Boarbatusks and Ursai, though they usually require superior numbers to prevail.

But the other weakness is that unlike the previous AK model, they cannot run and are rather really slow machines. The creators had sacrificed speed for their own power and defense. But as Aurora look at the computer, he senses that he is not alone. As he senses someone hiding, he immediately activates all weapons.

He than sensed the person getting ready to strike, as he whispered to the person.

"Come on, punk. Show me what you can do here."

As he said this, the attacker than leapt and tried to strike Aurora from behind. Aurora, however, heard it, and immediately had to roll away. When he looked, he gets a good glimpse of the person that tried attacking him.

As he used his scanners, she is identified as a Faunus. A Cat Faunus, clearly. She than looked at Aurora with a rather grim expression.

"It looks like that there are some Atlas Knight-130's that need to be destroyed."

The female said, as she raised her weapon. Aurora than readied his mini-guns.

Aurora than proceeds to shoot the person that attacked him. She than dodged out of the way and tried attacking. She ducked beside him, and tried to cut his leg. But Aurora was able to jump away from the strike, and quickly switched to blades.

He than tried to strike at the head, but the female blocked both the blades. She than slipped from the blades, and tried to strike the robot from the back. But he had reacted very quickly, and ducked under the strike. He than chased after her, but the Faunus than stopped, and the blades folded above the handle of itself.

She than shot bullets from the folded part of it, which had hit Aurora greatly. He than used his left blade to try and defend himself, while using his right blade to try shooting her. He was able to knocked out a few bits of her aura in quick succession.

But as she shot him right where the area of a human heart would be, he than has a flashback of his adoptive father trying to kill him with a gun that he had used, before Aurora took revenge and used his own gun to kill Taiyang, while Aurora survived. But the sight of it made him go completely berserk. He sees himself...back as a normal child...with a bullet hole on the heart, as he tried to stop it, yet he is killed. When he looks at her...he sees Taiyang before him. He than began to make some clicking and whirring sounds, as his blade began to reactive son the left arm, with his body shaking and the red lights became as dark as blood itself. He than ran to the Faunus, as she continues shooting him.

But Aurora, on animalistic instinct, has cut the bullets clean in half at a fast pace. He than jumped into the air and try to strike down at the Faunus. The Faunus than looked shocked, than moved away from him, as he stabbed the ground. He than looks, as his body shakes and the visor glows a bloody rage red. In his vision, he sees his father, mocking at him, while trying to shoot him.

The Faunus than looked scared and attempted to run away, but Aurora was not going to let her escape easily. As he tried to run, he ran much more faster, and blocked he path, while striking at her very hard. Aurora than kicked her hard and sent her flying back.

As she struggled to stand up, Aurora than best her to the punch, and grabbed her left wrist, as he pins her down very viciously. He than brought out his right hand, and activated the mini-guns, ready to fire. His vision sees his father...actually afraid for his life, and try begging for mercy.

The female than closed her eyes, as she spoke out.

"Do it...kill me. I deserve it. I deserve death."

But as Aurora prepares to kill...he than remembered something. If he kills the Faunus, he will be no better than the evil person that had tried to kill him. He would become just as much of a monster as the person he sworn fighting against. He also than remembered what his parents used to say to him...they final words...before their untimely death.

"Son...please listen to me. If you find yourself into a situation that is daring to change you...resist it. I do not want my son to become a monster that fight for his pleasure. I want my son to finally become a person that is filled with great humanity. A son that can make a large difference in the world, and a son that will accept anybody that suffers you are...my greatest creation."

His mother said to him. As he remembered, he than slowly lifts himself off of the female, and deactivates weapons, with his vision now normal. He than turns to leave.  But as he does that...

"Why...why didn't you kill me."

The female spoke sadly. He than turns to her.

"I refuse..."

She than looked in surprise, as she wasn't expecting for him to speak similar to a human.

"What?"

He than spoke out again.

"If I kill you...I become the very monster that I had sworn to fight. I refuse to become that."

As he turns to leave, the female than spoke out.

"My name...is Blake Belladonna. If you can...tell me what your name is."

He than turns around and spoke out.

"It's Aurora...Aurora Blackburn."

He said, before turning back, and continuing back to home. The female looks at the robot, before turning away, running.

At the house of Blackburn...

Aurora than entered his house. His house is way more better than in the past. He than goes to his computer, and began to download the data that he obtained. The previous data were very big, as it involves these Mecha called the Atlas Paladins, which are known for being rather destructively powerful and durably. As he looks, he than spoke to himself, robotically.

"The White Fang would most likely try to capture one of them, or perhaps a prototypical to try and be dangerous. If that happens, than it is goodbye to the humans that try maintaining peaceful lives. I will have to make sure to locate their base, and make sure that they do not have a Paladin."

He spoke, as he continued looking at the screen, thinking
