Prologue

"It's unfortunate you were promised a power that was never truly yours…" said Cinder Fall, to a downed Pyrrha Nikos. "...but take solace in knowing that I will use it in ways never thought imaginable." The situation was looking grim. Zalem's dead, the Beacon CCT is an absolute wreck, Penny's in pieces, and to top it all off, there's a friggin' Grimm dragon flying over Vale.

If that wasn't enough, the White Fang is killing civvies and huntsman-in-training alike, and my own partner is seconds away from dying to this power-hungry Fall Maiden. As I finally climbed to the top of the tower, I could hear Pyrrha, in pain, say to Cinder: "Do you believe in destiny?" "...Yes." said Cinder.

As Cinder raised her bow to fire an arrow aimed directly at Pyrrha's chest, there was only one thing going through my mind at the moment: Absolute rage. So I did the only reasonable thing anyone in my situation should do:

"THE WORLD! STOP TIME!"

*VRMMMMMM TICK-TOCK-TICK-TOCK-TICK*

As the wheels of time ground to a halt, I rushed over to Cinder's now-time frozen body and proceeded to unleash a rage-filled barrage of punches at her.

"MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA! MUDA !MUDA MUDA MUDA MUDAAAAAAA!"

"Time has begun to move again."

*VRMMMMMMMMMMMM*

When time started to move again, all Cinder got was immediate pain coursing through her body as my Stand's punches caught up to her. "AUGHHHHH!" Cinder shouted in pain as she was flown away from Pyrrha.

Now, at this point, you're probably wondering why this tale is starting in media res and are half-expecting to me say: "This is me. You're probably wondering how I got here.". Well, unlike most of those stories out there, I don't play a song from the Who that was released in 1971 while this happens, so-

…..Goddammit.

Welp. Might as well go with it, then.

My name is Danny Branco. This is my story.
