Ok! 10th chapter, got to say I had fun making this mostly because some of the bits are original made by me.

Also this chapter marks the end of Arc one: Arrival in Remnant, so the next chapter will start Arc two: Academy Days, also a really big shoutout to Jason Wu, I kinda took one of his ideas from his own Person x RWBY crossover, thanks for letting me use it.

Anyway. I've decided to make this fanfic a harem, now before you hurt me or drop this fanfic hear me out, at first I wanted this to be a harem so there was a grantee that it would end up like one. The other reason is because the main character I'm using is a persona protagonist, who in all intent and purposes. can have a harem(depending on who you ask) with Akira being the most sassy, charming, charismatic, and cocky protag in the persona series. He's bound to get the ladies(Even when he got brutality beaten in valentines day), but don't worry harems aren't the main focus here.

Also for those who have not watched RWBY or played Persona. I highly suggest you do, both series are very enjoyable, and please if your new don't read any further until you caught up to both series' canon, so if you don't want to get spoiled stop reading this and watch/play RWBY and Persona respectively.

And why is it with people thinking that Makoto is the 'canon' love interest? I mean I get that her persona is a bike and she's totally kickass, but that's just it. For me her social link route felt completely bland, and she kept getting pushed by the game like it's saying 'Hey this girl is perfect in every way so we're gonna push her so that you would think of her as canon.' And to me she felt rushed. Haru was introduced so late that she herself has less fans, while Makoto has alot alongside Futaba(best girl by the way), and when the Persona 5 Animation starts rolling in, Makoto's fans are gonna rub it in with them saying that ProtagxMakoto is canon, I really hate her toxic fans. They're the reason why I don't like Makoto herself.

That brings me to my favorite ship, FutabaxProtag, I'm just gonna address the obvious question: people see her as a little sister, now I don't know why people think that, they just do, whether it's because of how she looks, or how she acts. I dunno. For me at least. I for one don't see her as a little sister but we all have our own opinions. The reason why I see her as a love interest and not a 'little sister' is because she's adorkable. That's it and if your gonna say 'dude she looks like a little girl, you sickfuck.' Remember she's 15 years old. Futaba's literally one year younger than the protagonist himself(at the start if the game.)

Anyway, enough with my ranting, Fav, Follow, and Review, and let's get started.

Sometime in the past?

"But isn't incest illegal?"

"Under normal circumstances. Yes, but due to the great war. Incest has been made legal.." Akira had to admit. The decline of males is a serious problem due to much of the population being killed off in the great war.

"And so, because of the great war. There had been laws made for reproduction, as well as these." Shuujin pulled out a document from one of his drawers, and give it to his son. Akira stared at the documents then back to his father, before opening it and skimming trough the pages, before long Akira spotted the law regarding incest.

It said: The remnant incest law of 13XX, this law legalizes sibling/cousin relationships created at the end of the great war. made for reproduction purposes, however it must have the blessing of both parties.

Akira at his father who gave him a smile before nodding. The heir nodded to his father and went back to skimming through the pages again. He then came across something interesting.

It said: The remnant house/clan restoration act of 13XX, this law was created at the end of the great war and is made for a house/clan member who is the last member of their house/clan making them the sole heir and are legal to take more than one wife.

Akira stared at the page for a good 20s, and then to his father who had a beaming smile. Just what is this man planning with him?

"What is this?"

"That's exactly what it says it is. Remember my son. I can't live forever and soon enough you'll be the next head of our house, and like I said if anything unfortunate happens to me or your mother. You'll be the next in line to inherit everything I own and then some." Shuujin answered his son's question, said boy looked at him like he was crazy, probably thinking 'Are you crazy? You are one of the most strongest huntsman of your time, what could possibly kill or hurt you?'

Shuujin mentally chuckled at his son's presumed thoughts about him. It's true that the Gentleman Thief is one of the most powerful huntsman of his time, but even he can still fall and die like any other man, woman, and child out there.

Great now he owes, Hei 'Junior' Xiong, 50 lien for the bet he made with him. Damn bastard. He knew it was a sucker's bet.

"That maybe true Akira, but remember I'm just as human as the next man, woman, or child out there. Which is why I'm telling you this now so that you may physicality and mentality prepare yourself for the trials to come." Shuujin concluded as he gestured Akira to the door. Not wanting to pursue much further the soon-to-be-heir nodded getting up from his seat he went to the door leaving his father one last glance before opening the door and exiting Shuujin's Office.

Akira was greeted with his sister's beautiful face, next to Yuzuki was a mature woman in all aspects, her Gothic maid uniform styled in the colors of sliver and blue, and with white stockings, her hair reaching down to her knees. Her steel blue eyes along with her white gloved hands (For a better physical description, think Grayfia of Highschool DxD, with a few changes of course.) All in all she puts off that elegant aura. This woman's name is Luna Shizuka, professional huntress, and mother to Akira Kurusu and Yuzuki Shizuka.

"Mother." Akira commented. He hasn't seen his mother all day.

"Hello, my little daybreak." She cooed as she hugged her oldest and only son.

Emerald Forest

Akira shook of his thoughts about that dream in the morning, lately the Trickster has been having wired recalling dreams about his past, well more specially, his counterpart's past. Akira had to admit. His counterpart had a better childhood than he did. Well, relatively speaking.

We see Akira walking in the Grimm infested forest. It was Akira's regular Grimm hunting, the Trickster was humming as he strolled around hoping to encounter some Grimms. So far he has only encountered Beowulves, Ursas, and a few Nevermores, Deathstalkers and King Taijitus. Akira had asked Yuzuki if she wanted to join him on a Grimm hunt. She declined saying she was good and that Akira should come back before 11:30 pm. Akira promised and so here he was doing his nightly raids.

You could hear footsteps and occasionally sipping of someone drinking from a coffee mug. as well as the sounds of a maniacal laughing when a large pack of Grimms dissolves. Akira was bored he only did this so that he could relive the adrenaline he felt during the initiation, but now it seems dull compared to last time. Letting out a sigh Akira made one last glance at his surroundings before turning around to go back at the academy.

Akira sensed something just in as he moved out of his pervious position. Akira looked up to his attack and saw a Grimm, however the Grimm in question wasn't like the others this Grimm looked more like a praying mantis it's colors were that of every Grimm had, the typical black and red. The front of the Grimm was covered in boney armor plating. It's mandibles moved as it looked at Akira as if he was a tasty treat.

It was standing in a height of 9ft It's massive claws folded and ready to grab and crush it's prey. Akira felt a smirk making it's way on his face as he pulled out his scroll to snap a pic of a newly discovered Grimm type, oh, Professor Port is gonna have a field day about this. the Kamakiri(Akira already named it since he discovered it) stared at Akira waiting for any movement made by it's prey like a normal mantis would. Akira mentally noted it's behavior as he promised to himself he would write this down. Maybe he could get extra credit for Mr. Port's class.

The Kamakiri slightly tilted it's head hoping for Akira to move and kill him in one swift swipe, Akira knew the Grimm was just playing mind games with him. This thing seems to have some intellect that many younger Grimms lack in comparison. Akira dash at the Grimm with his blade at the ready. He knew he was fast enough to dodged it's claws, sure enough, the Kamakiri pounced as it's claw unfold in impressive speed looking to crush Akira, but instead the Trickster side-stepped avoiding the attack, and going in to slash the Grimm's exposed sides. It let out a cry of pain as it redirected it's claws to slash Akira.

Moving out the way of the dangerous looking claws, Akira pulled out one of his random pistols he has in his disposal firing off a full magazine, the Kamakiri moved it's body to let the front take the incoming bullets as they harmlessly bounce off the armor plating. it let out an annoyed growl before charging at Akira's position. He rolled out the way as the Grimm rammed into a tree breaking it in the process.

Ok, so far Akira has been gathering great info about this particular Grimm. It's main method of attack seems to be It's claws, ramming, and slashing. In terms of defense is It's armor in the front and that's about it, and it's weakness seems to be it's exposed sides, legs, and it's back, oh, and it has some intelligence even if it's younger. Akira for once actually liked this thing even if it's trying to kill him.

Having recomposed itself, the Kamakiri let out a growl as it once again charged at Akira it's claws in the ready to do a vertical downward slash, Akira tapped into his persona's strength as he block the slash with his blade sparks flew into the night sky dancing before fading out of existence. This continued on as the slashes begun to pick up the pace, the Kamakiri had both strength and speed as it was able to keep up with Akira, and this thing is still young(or Akira assumed it's still young) wonder what it would be like when it's fully aged?

Akira dodged a slash from his right as he created distance between him and the Grimm. Akira had an idea as he jumped into a nearby tree, he closed his eyes while concentrating as his Aura began to form around him in a crimson color, flashing some handsigns Akira's aura split into two, the crimson Aura began to take the form of a humanoid figure while letting out a blinding light.

Soon enough, the light died down as shape of human teenage girl took place. Her black waist-length hair was styled in an elegant bun. She was standing at 5'8, and her outfit consists of an open black blazer, underneath was a plain purple shirt with the kanji sign of 'prisoner' and the lower part of her outfit consists of a black knee-length skirt, and the tips colored with red as well as a quiver located on the left side of her hips along with being paired with violet stockings, and a pair of black combat boots. In her purple gloved hand was a black modern crossbow and on her back was a katana, and finally a purple and red scarf reaching down to her knees.

This girl's name is Murasakino Tsuki created using Akira's semblance: doppelganger. She opened her eyes revealing the royal color of purple scanning the area she spotted her original, and a small smile crept up on her face.

"What are your orders, Master." She said in a calm voice. Surpassing a groan at being called 'Master' Akira pointed at the lone Kamakiri.

"When you see an opening, I want you to shoot the thing in the head." Murasakino nodded as she leapt out and landed on another tree readying her crossbow. She reached for her quiver and took out an arrow embedded with fire Dust loading her crossbow.

Akira jumped down to meet his opponent, the Kamakiri not wasting anymore time it charged at Akira. The Trickster dodged the incoming Grimm attack as he pulled out his pistol and aimed at it's head then began shooting the Grimm. The Kamakiri brought it's claws together to form a shield to protect it's head. Akira reloaded his gun as he dodged a slash from the Kamakiri this continued on as he ducked under a horizontal slash from the Grimm. The tree behind Akira however wasn't so lucky.

Murasakino narrowed her eyes as she carefully aimed her crossbow. Her Master was distracting the Kamakiri, and she was instructed to kill the Grimm when she sees an opening. Akira slashed the exposed legs of the Grimm making said creature to let out a pained growl. It regained it's senses as it vertically slashes Akira's previous position however in the process it turned it's exposed back giving, Murasakino, a clear view. She smirked as she give one last aim before pulling the trigger, the arrow was shot so fast it left a red streak in the air, and the shot was true hitting the Grimm in the backside of it's head before the fire dust activated and exploded killing the Kamakiri as it's headless and lifeless body fell to the ground making a 'trud' sound before dissolving in black mist. Murasakino jumped down from her position to join her Master. She had a smile on her face and then her crossbow folded into a stick as she put it in her quiver.

"Why didn't you just use your personas, Master." She questioned.

"I didn't want to kill it to quickly, and besides I could use it for extra credit." Akira answered. Earning him a chuckle from his doppelganger, when Akira uses his semblance they would sometimes have some of his personality. Granted he has alot of them due to being a wildcard but the core personality he has is being a cheeky, sneaky, teasing, and cocky bastard.

Apparently Murasakino has the teasing part all to well.

"And why would you need extra credit for? Hm? Oh! Maybe you don't want to get disturbed when you down and dirty with your sister?" She teased, earning her a glance from her original. Akira let out a sigh is this how his friends felt when he was teasing them? Damn, is this the 'Taste your own medicine' kind of thing?

"Yes It Is Trickster." Arsene commented bluntly. Akira mentally pouted, sometimes he wished his personas didn't inherit his cocky, cheeky, and teasing attitude.

Due to the noise of the fire Dust explosion, several Grimm types appeared, Beowulves, Ursas both young and alphas, two Deathstalkers, a flock of Nevermores. All surrounding Akira and his doppelganger. He smiled as a black and red katana materialized in his hands, Murasakino Immediately caught on what her Master was planning. She smirked as she reached for her own katana the blade coated in royal purple metal. Akira gave her a grin almost as if he silently said to her 'Who ever gets more kills wins.' Murasakino gave her original one of her own grins saying 'Your on.'

A lone Beowulf attacked first, but was sliced in-half courtesy of Murasakino's katana, growling at the demise of one of their brethren. Two more Beowulves charged at the doppelganger, however Akira intercepted them with a horizontal slash killing the Grimms as they dissolve into black mist.

Murasakino jumped into the air to dodge a charging Ursa. As she lands on the said Grimm. She pulled out her crossbow once more, and switching it to semi-auto mode. Loading a mag full of 30 small bolts Murasakino took aim and shot several Grimms either killing them or immobilizing them. Akira not wanting to be outplayed. Pulled out his own pistol and went on to landing headshots.

Akira had to dodge a Deathstalker's stinger, And then shot at the uncovered joints stunning said Grimm as he stabbed a Beowulf in It's chest before kicking It away. Murasakino had already exhausted her mag, and so she reloaded her crossbow as she stabbed the Ursa she was on. stopping It dead In It's tracks. Murasakino dodged an incoming claw slash from an Alpha Beowulf. She readjusted herself as she eyed the massive Beowulf.

Back to Akira. He was In a middle of a fight against one Deathstalker, one Nevermore, and a pack of Beowulves accompanied with an Alpha Beowulf, and because of the impatience of the younger Beowulves they charged at the Trickster. Akira grinned as he quickly dispatched them with no issue. He dodged a Nevermore's dive attack, and then an Alpha Beowulf's slash.

Murasakino was having a great time with her opponent, the Alpha Beowulf growled in annoyance as It got on all fours and charged at the doppelganger. Murasakino grinned as she charged the Beowulf as well. Once the two combatants were close enough to each other. The Alpha Beowulf tired to claw slash Murasakino. The doppelganger slid underneath the Beowulf completely avoiding the attack. She turned around and unloaded her magazine on the back of the Beowulf killing it. She smirked as she spotted two Nevermores coming at her in full force along with one Alpha Ursa.

Akira just killed a Deathstalker by stabbing It In the uncovered joints, and then shot down the Nevermore trying to dive attack him again. The Alpha Beowulf he was fighting roared and sprinted to his position. Akira side-stepped a downward slash from the Grimm giving him the chance to climb up the Beowulf. Akira then stabbed the top of the Alpha's head and then jumped down to smash the Grimm's skull making it dissolve into black mist.

Murasakino had already dispatched the Grimms that attacked her, and was joining up with her original, they looked around and Is still surrounded by Grimms. Akira smirked as he felt the adrenalin rushing back in, Murasakino reloaded her crossbow in her hand, and the katana in her other hand all the while grinning at the Grimms still gathered around her and her original.

"So... Round 2?"

"Hmph, then let's go."

And soon enough, the Grimm horde didn't stand a chance against the duo. resulting in a one-sided slaughter, and If Akira were to look up, then he would've seen a blue butterfly floating above him.

Kingdom of Vale

It's the afternoon, and Akira was walking with his sister in toe. He had promise to take her through Vale's streets so that he could find some coffee shops. Yuzuki doesn't seem to mind as she hummed the whole time. Akira originally wanted to go alone, but with the appearance of his sister. He decided to invite her along. Akira and Yuzuki had already visited quite a few coffee shops today, and Akira had picked up some ideas along the way.

And he was seriously debating whether or not he should open up his own coffee shop.

"So Yuzuki. How are you liking Vale so far?"

"Hmm? Oh, yes, well I think I might like it here... Well as long as your here that Is." She answered while keeping the last part to herself. Akira hummed in acceptance as they walked on through, Yuzuki would sometimes get eyed by the male populous, but once they saw her brother, they immediately felt fear as Akira's intense gaze promised a slow and painful death.

Yuzuki would also do the same when the female population would eye Akira like some kind of juicy meat, one gaze from Yuzuki and the females would rethink their thoughts or else they'll met a painful demise. Akira would sometimes awkwardly laugh due to his sister's protectiveness for him.

Going through the busy streets of Vale. Akira spotted a bookstore named: Tukson's Book Trade. Akira asked Yuzuki if she wanted to buy a book. She thought about until she shook her head saying she had no reason to buy a book. Akira nodded telling Yuzuki to wait for him as he went to buy a book.

The sounds of a door opening accompanied with a bell ringing. Akira saw an adult man. He wore a short-sleeved quarter-zip burgundy and black shirt with a visible white undershirt. His hair was cleanly cut, and he had noticeable sideburns, along with hairy, muscular arms.

"Welcome to Tukson's Book Trade." He said in a monotone voice, He shifted his attention from the books in his hand to Akira. "It's just a catchphrase."

Akira didn't say anything as he nodded. "So what would you like?"

"Do you have a book named: Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde?" Akira asked, Tukson finished organizing the books as he stared at Akira.

"In fact. I do yes, It's right over there." He pointed at the counter behind Akira. The Trickster nodded as he skimmed through the selection until he found the book he was looking for. He moved back to the main counter to pay for the book in his hand.

"How much would this cost?" Akira placed the book to the counter asking the cost

"That'd be 10 lien. I have to say. I don't usually get customers your age." Tukson commented as he scanned the book, while Akira pulled out a lien card out of his wallet.

"What can I say. I'm not like most people." Akira smirked as he received the book. Tukson nodded saying he would welcome back, Akira. If he'd ever come back. Akira said his thanks before exiting the bookstore and joining his sister again.

"Sorry I took so long." Akira apologized, Yuzuki shook her head saying it was ok. The two continued to walk through the streets. Akira placed the book he bought to his infinite pocket dimension. Akira also wondered how he could carry such items, but quickly put it off as one of his wildcard traits. He isn't gonna complain about an ability he has that can make his life easier.

Turning around a corner, Akira and Yuzuki spotted and heard two familiar faces. It was Yang and Ruby, seeing that the two sisters haven't noticed Akira and Yuzuki yet, they approached them.

"Why, good afternoon to you two." Akira announced his presence along with Yuzuki, who stayed silent. Turning their head to the pair, Yang waved her hand while Ruby greeted them.

"Hey Akira, and hi Yuzuki." She greeted the pair In cheerful matter.

"Hello Ruby, Yang." Akira responded. While Yuzuki gave a smile and bowed. "And judging by where you two are going. Your gonna go to the Dust shop Ruby saved, named : 'Dust Till Dawn'."

Ruby's eyes widen slightly as did her sister, but her shock quickly died down while asking Akira.

"How did you know?" The Trickster chuckled, Ruby must of forgotten the conversion he and she shared prior to today.

"Well, me and Yuzuki just passed the shop earlier, and you told me yesterday remember?" Akira answered, causing Ruby to sheepishly rub the back of her head in embarrassment with Yang giggling at her misfortune.

"So wanna join us, hot stuff?" Yang asked, Akira raised an eyebrow at her nickname for him, while both Yuzuki and Ruby frowned, though the latter only did slightly.

"What? Is there something on my fac-"

"Ignore her, but yeah, do you wanna join us, Akira? And you to Yuzuki." Ruby interjected. Causing Yang to pout at her sister's interruption. Akira smiled, but declined the offer saying that he would like to spend the day with his sister. Ruby's face fell, but Akira said that he's gonna make a new weapon soon and was hoping that she could help him. Ruby immediately beamed at the statement saying she would be honoured at helping him.

Akira nodded saying his goodbyes with Yuzuki doing the same, soon the to pairs of siblings parted ways leaving them to their original plans once again. The Trickster and the Sliver Maid spotted an ice cream shop on the way to the next coffee shop. Akira thought about it and then decided he'd buy some ice cream for him and Yuzuki. It is quite relatively humid today.

"Yuzuki, I'm gonna buy us some ice cream, what brand do you prefer?"

"Brother, please let me do it, as your maid-"

"Look, Yuzuki, you can be my maid when we're at the dorm or in private, but when we're at public or anywhere else. You are my equal. Now what flavor do you want your ice cream to be?" Akira interjected. Yuzuki wanted to argue but went against it as her brother had already insisted.

"Very well, I'd like mine to be vanilla." Akira nodded as he went in to ice cream shop turning his back at Yuzuki briefly before colliding into another person, said person was diminutive in stature, wearing a white jacket with a pink interior, brown pants, black gloves, and black and white boots with very high heels. Under her jacket is a brown corset, curved in the middle and at the bottom, exposing her hips. She also wears a multitude of necklaces, which hang haphazardly around her neck.

Her hair color is half pink and half brown, with white streaks on the pink side. Her eyes were in a condition known as heterochromia, being the same color as her hair, going from pink and brown, to white and pink, to brown and white, and so on and so forth each time she blinks.

Akira quickly picked himself up as he went to help the fallen girl on the ground.

"I'm so sorry, are you hurt, miss...?" Akira asked her, as he gave out his hand to pull her up the ground. The girl happily accepted the gesture, as letting Akira to help the multi-colored girl as she dusted herself off, the shook her head as she seemly pulled out her scroll from in between her breast typing in the words before showing it to Akira.

'Name's Neo, nice to meet you ;3'

Akira stared at the girl now named Neo, as she gave him a flirtatious wink. He would of answered her if he wasn't in a hurry.

"Well, nice to meet you too, Neo, but I gotta go. Maybe we'll meet again next time." Akira stated as he dashed to buy his and Yuzuki's ice cream. In a split second Neo was able to pickpocket Akira's wallet from his coat pockets, as she gave an innocent smile.

Akira stopped in his tracks, before looking back at Neo giving her a cocky grin.

"Oh, and thanks for taking them off me. see ya." He waved just before walking away and entering the ice cream shop. With his sister who followed him, Yuzuki, going in the ice cream shop as well, and the Silver Maid flashed a smirk of her own at Neo just before entering herself. Leaving the exposed thief to pounder on her thoughts.

Neo cringed slightly at being caught so easily. As she opened Akira's former wallet, seeing that all of his lien cards were empty. She sighed before her attention swifted to a red card, she took it out and read the words behind it saying.

'You can't trick a Trickster.'

Neo stared at it for a while. Thinking at how she got one upped by someone.

One thing's for sure, this guy's interesting.

Beacon Landing Docks

It was the next day and all of the teams (Except CRDL) were interested for their first field trip in the Forever Fall. They were instructed to get at least one jar of red sap for professor Peach. Who everyone debates on whether or not she exists.

"I'm quite excited. I've only been here for one week and now I'm going on a field trip."

"Heh, there's gonna be more exciting things to come, Yuzuki." Akira along with his sister, team RWBY, JNPR, and CRDL as well as Glynda. They were walking through the large walkway that housed the landing docks. Today was the day they were taking their first field trip. The four groups(and teacher) were standing in the landing docks waiting for a Bullhead to transport them from here to Forever fall. After waiting for 15 minutes the Bullhead arrived. It's doors opened allowing the teams to board the aircraft. With their teacher telling them to move in a single file.

Akira occupied a window so that he could see the forest before anyone else. His sister joined him soon after.

"Something on your mind, brother?" Yuzuki said, as she was concerned about her brother. He was being more quiet then usual. Akira shook his head saying that he's fine and that there was nothing to worry about. Yuzuki narrowed her eyes at his statement, but gave in as she nodded. Seeing that he won't open up, Yuzuki changed the subject.

"Why didn't you show yourself to us?" Yuzuki questioned. "And why now? Why did you wait for eight years?"

Akira could see the hurt expression on her face, and he felt bad, sure he may not know just what this Akira did as to why he hasn't shown himself for eight years. But that doesn't give him an excuse. Should he tell Yuzuki? Or just settle with a half-truth?

"I... I can't tell you Yuzuki.. At least, not yet." Yuzuki weakly nodded, maybe she's pushing it too hard? If her brother doesn't want to talk about it than she'll leave it for now. Plus she heard the pain in his voice, so it's obviously a touchy subject.

"Akira, have you gave any thoughts on what father said years ago?" She asked, Akira stared at her before sighing. this is something he had been thinking for a while ever since Yuzuki arrived.

"I don't know, I feel like it's wrong for siblings to do this kinda of thing, but at the same time I feel that it's right. So I'm conflicted on the subject." Akira thought about it thoroughly, as it was considered as a taboo. Yet it wasn't so he can't give a proper answer just yet. Yuzuki saw the honesty in his words. She nodded not wanting to go any further then needed.

"But I'm willing to give it a shot." With those words. Yuzuki immediately beamed up giving a warm smile to her brother. The two began to talk about other topics. Being lost in their own little world.

After a 20-30 minute flight the Bullhead was just arriving at Forever fall. Akira looked out the windows seeing the blood colored trees of the forest. He would soon be accompanied with teams RWBY, Yuzuki, and JNPR, said teams, and Sliver Maid, let out an awed gasp at the colorfully made forest. Not long after team RWBY and JNPR, were all spread through out the huge airship that will drop them down into the forest. Team AS was off to the side however, all of them eyeing team CRDL, especially a curtain red gloved Trickster.

Forever Fall

"Yes, students, the forest of Forever fall is indeed beautiful." Glynda explained to her students as they landed and were walking through the beautiful trees. The red tree as well as the same colored ground were mesmerizing. the dead leaves falling as the wind blew them away from their origin tree. The sounds of birds chirping making it even more relaxing for the students.

Akira couldn't help but compare the trees of Forever fall to the Sakura trees back at his old world. It was mesmerizing for the Trickster to see these tree, but it really made him homesick.

"Professor Peach has asked all of you to collect samples from the tree deep inside this forest, and I'm here to make sure none of you die while doing so." She then turned to face her students. "Each of you is to gather one jar's worth of red sap. However, this forest is full of the creatures of Grimm, so be sure to stay with you teammates, or with a pair of your liking. We will rendezvous back here by 4 o'clock. Have fun." With that being said, Glynda went further ahead. to who knows where and left the four pairs of students alone. The teens stared at each other for quite sometime, then suddenly nodded and In a matter of seconds, the teams mixed themselves up into several pairs.

Akira-Yuzuki

Ruby-Weiss

Yang-Blake

Jaune-Pyrrha

Nora-Ren

(A/N: Fuck team CRDL)

Akira wasn't surprised when he was paired with his sister. So Akira offered his hand to Yuzuki who happily accepted the hand as they went to collect the red sap. If the two were to look back, then they would see some people giving them jealous glances. Ignoring the stares they were getting, the two kept walking further away. Yuzuki turned her head to give the three groups a grin that could clearly say: 'Too slow..'

Ruby Rose

Ruby Rose is an adorkable fifteen year old huntress-in-training. She likes cookies, killing Grimms, finding new weapons, killing Grimms, the colors red and black, killing Grimms, drinking milk, Akira, oh and killing Grimm can't forget about that.

Right now. She was staring at the Maid N' Trickster duo, the little Grimm Reaper had a frown on her face as she watched Akira and his sister leave. Ruby unconsciously gave Yuzuki a jealous gaze for being with her Akira, Wait, her Akira? Since when was Akira hers? And more importantly why was she acting this way?

I mean sure Akira is fun, loving, charming, caring, awesome, strong, nice guy, he wears alot of red and black like her. He understands weapons like she does. He's like the boy of Ruby's dreams. The Grimm Reaper didn't even realize she had some drool building up in her mouth.

However Ruby wasn't the only one thinking of Akira.

Weiss Schnee

Weiss Schnee is a heiress to the Schnee family name at the age of seventeen, as well as a huntress-in-training. She is a refined young lady, and is someone with class and manners(heh). Her family owns the biggest Dust company in all of Remnant. The Schnee family shares a unique blood as they are able to pass down a summoning semblance through generations.

Weiss always thought that of course. That her family's the only one with a summoning based semblance, but then the entity named, Akira, proved her wrong. At first Weiss passed it off as him being a long lost relative, but the more Weiss saw him, the more determined she was to finish puzzle, even if it was bits and pieces.

Weiss thought of him as an incompetent person, but than he has shown to prove Weiss' initial thought wrong. He is kind, warm, cheerful, and understanding. It's like he's natural at making people open up to him, the complete opposite of what Weiss' personality is, and he also had something Weiss had longed for.

Freedom.

Akira Kurusu had freedom. He had the freedom to choose, to think, to act, and to live his own way. Weiss would never admit it out loud, but she felt envious to those who had freedom, being a heiress to a big company meant you would have an overbearing father and having said father to force you into a political marriages, as well as the man having control your life. Her own older sibling gave up her title of heiress just so she could get away from their father's grasp.

But only. If only, Akira could help her, help her open up her own wings of rebellion, and maybe something more than that.

Forever Fall

Our scene changes to where Akira and Yuzuki are, both him and her were collecting red sap, all though. Akira seems to be collecting more than intended. When Yuzuki asked why he replied saying that he wanted to make some cake, and if what he picked up on the CCT was correct, than the red sap should be as tasty as it was said to be.

Yuzuki accepted the answer, and went to get more sap for her brother. Akira said he didn't need anymore than the ones he already had. The Silver Maid pouted, but quickly remembered what her brother said to her yesterday, with a nod Yuzuki stepped back let Akira finish up the last batch of red sap. The Trickster thinking It was to quiet, decided to make small talk with his sister.

"So, Yuzuki, how are you liking the field trip so far?"

"I think it's quite fun, all though. I haven't seen any Grimm lately, or any when we arrived." Now that Yuzuki pointed it out, Akira hasn't seen or heard any Grimm when they arrived, and It's unsettling. There would usually be Grimms in a Grimm-Infested place, but the duo have come across none so far.

"Yes, now that you've said it Yuzuki, we haven't encountered any Grimms lately. Which Is both unsettling and concerning." Akira looked at the jars he and Yuzuki filled up, with one swipe of a hand they disappeared getting stored within Akira's Sea of Souls. Thankfully Yuzuki wasn't paying attention.

"I dunno why, but I have a bad feeling about this." The Trickster thought to himself as he turned his attention to Yuzuki who had her eyes closed.

"Yuzuki, what are you doing?" Akira asked, the Silver Maid didn't reply, and instead concentrated on what she was doing, and after a while. She opened her eyes.

"To answer your question brother. I was using my semblance, and It appears Jaune Arc needs our help." She answered, as Akira nodded and asked where their friend is located. Yuzuki complied saying that he was near them. Akira nodded again and sprinted into action with Yuzuki hot on his tail.

At the same time...

Forever Fall

Cardin Winchester

Cardin's pissed, why you may ask? Well not only was he humiliated not once, not twice, trice, first when he fought a man named Akira Kurusu, who not only beat him, but destroyed him in a sparing match. Akira wasn't even trying his best against Cardin, and yet was still able to give him an ass-whooping.

Next was Akira's sister: Yuzuki Shizuka, who did the same as her brother, only Cardin got kicked where the sun don't shine, and then bitch slapped in the face. Cardin was thankful he had Aura or else he wouldn't be called a man anymore.

Then finally: Jaune Arc. Cardin's first initial about the Arc was nothing, this guy was absolutely pathetic it had to be a miracle for this guy to get into Beacon, and yet he did, but Cardin being the man he is. Give Mr. Arc a trashing during combat class, oh, that was their first fight against each other, but lately the Arc was improving to the point Cardin was having trouble in defeating Jaune.

Which brings us back to the present.

Thinking It was a good idea to play a prank, Cardin tired to toss a jar of red sap on Jaune, only to backfire as the White Knight caught the incoming jar, and confronted Cardin. Then the two had a heated conversation and because of that. Cardin had enough and tired to throw a punch at Jaune.

Jaune dodged but the jar he was holding got smashed to bits by Cardin's punch, angered the Bully tired another punch only to stop when they heard a familiar growl of an Ursa, but just any Ursa. It was an Major Ursa. Cardin tired to fight the Grimm but ultimately failed as he crushed into the ground when the Ursa bashed him with It's hand.

Winchester saw the massive Grimm slowly crawled It's way to his position. He closed his eyes and waited for the inevitable...

But It never came, as Cardin opened his eyes due to the sounds of metal clanging, and he saw Jaune with his shield up blocking the Major Ursa with impressive strength.

And so It begins.

Dodging a claw slash from the Grimm. Jaune took up a fighting stance he was taught by his teammate: Pyrrha Nikos. He charged at the Grimm, blocking the claw strike, Jaune slashed the Ursa In It's stomach making it let out a growl of pain. It retaliated with smashing It's claws on to Jaune's exposed torso, the Arc was pushed away and hit the ground but manage to get back up again.

He quickly looked at his scroll that was built into his shield to check his Aura levels, and it was no good. He was at the yellow level, Jaune looked back and forth from his Aura levels to the Major Ursa. He clicked his tongue and charged at the Grimm once more.

Meanwhile Akira, Yuzuki, Pyrrha, Weiss, and Ruby all arrived, and when the five did, they saw Jaune already fighting against the Major Ursa. Weiss and Ruby wanted to help, but they were stopped by both Akira and Pyrrha.

"Wait!" Pyrrha said with her hand blocking their way.

"Why? He needs help!" Ruby tried to point out.

"No, let him do this on his own. He has to." Akira reasoned. "Besides, look at him go."

The duo did so, and true enough Jaune was actually holding his own against the massive Grimm, one claw strike was effectively blocked by his shield and used the opening to stab the Grimm in the chest, before backing away to avoid the Grimm's retaliation.

Jaune took a moment to breathe while shutting his eyes as he listened to the environment around him and the sound of the Ursa's growls. And just when seconds finally passed, the knight shot his eyes open and with a loud warcry, he charged at the Major Ursa one more time in hopes of finishing it off quickly.

Pyrrha noticed that while Jaune was raising his shield up in order to block the oncoming attack, he wasn't moving it fast enough. Thinking quickly, she channeled some aura into her hand and lifted it out to her leader. Suddenly Pyrrha's aura began surrounding Jaune's shield and it helped him move it just enough to block the attack and lean on the ground.

And because of this, Jaune pushed the claw away from his shield and successfully managed to decapitate the Grimm, giving him the win as the defeated Grimm dissolved into black mist.

"Uh… what?" Ruby looked at Pyrrha in a confused manner.

Weiss also looked a Pyrrha in amazement. "How did you…"

"Well," Pyrrha explained. "Ruby has her speed, you have your glyphs, and Akira has his summons. My semblance is Polarity.

"Whoa… you can control poles." Ruby muttered in awe.

Weiss face palmed at the young girl's naivety. "No you dunce, she means she has control over magnetism."

"Magnets are totally cool as well." Akira commented.

Moments later, Weiss caught sight of Pyrrha taking her leave. "Wait, where are you going?"

"Yeah!" The scythe user added. "We better tell them what happened!"

"We could," Pyrrha began before smiling softly, "Or we could keep it our little secret."

The R and W of team RWBY looked at each other before shrugging as they and Pyrrha left the scene, but before they could, Yuzuki, who was quiet the whole time spoke up.

(Play: RWBY-This Will Be The Day)

"I hate to be the bringer of bad news, but due to the negative feelings and the constant noises, It seems to have attracted a large amount of Grimms, and they are coming this way as we speak." She announced. "We have two minutes before they come, and we won't be able to run away fast enough."

She unsheathed her hunting knife, and cocked her rifle, prompting Akira to sigh as he lazily took out his knife. The three huntress-in-training felt dread build up in their bodies. Not a moment later terrifying howls and growls pierced through the air, making Jaune and Cardin to look at the charging Grimms coming to their direction. Akira then dashed to their position and said.

"If you want to fight then go ahead, but we need someone to warn Miss Goodwitch and the others that we need help." Well technically Akira could single-handily beat the Grimms but where's the fun in that? Jaune slightly turned pale, he just finished off a Major but he knows he can't defeat a Grimm horde.

The Trickster, the White Knight, and the Bully would soon be accompanied by Ruby, Weiss, Pyrrha, and Yuzuki. Akira then began looming over the downed Winchester. He knew that Cardin would be dead-weight in this situation.

"Cardin, I want you to go find your team and tell them to bring us back-up, and if you spot our teacher tell her to come here quickly." Akira said firmly. Cardin stared at him the Bully wanted to protest but he felt that if he did, Akira would kill him faster than the Grimm will, and so he stood up and hastily nodded before dashing away from the scene and do what he was told.

Akira noticed that Jaune was feeling winded, and so he silently cast a Diarahan on him, Jaune suddenly felt a whole lot better for some reason, he looked at the Trickster who just gave him a nod, he nodded back with his eyes saying 'Thank you.'

Ruby unfold her Crescent Rose into scythe mode, Weiss unsheathed Myrtenaster and took on a fighting stance, Pyrrha had her Miló and Akoúo out and ready for action, then finally Yuzuki held her knife: Sort, while she aimed Oras at one of the approaching Grimms. Jaune wanted to run, but he knew it was futile so he readied Crocea Mors and took on a stance that somewhat mirrored Pyrrha's.

'Hmph, It's Showtime!' Akira mentally cheered.

Yuzuki took first blood as her dust-infused bullet tore through the head of a Beowulf, Akira with Ruby besides him, charged at the Beowulf pack, Akira did a low horizontal slash killing the young Grimm, while Ruby used the recoil made by her weapon to slash a Beowulf in mid-air, Akira dodged a downward slash from an Ursa as he climbed up on It's arm, he stabbed his knife deep into It's head then jumped down smashing It onto the ground killing It in the process.

Meanwhile a small group of Ursas and Beowulves managed to slip by, then they engaged both Jaune and Pyrrha. Jaune with his now relived body quickly blocked a claw from a Beowulf and countered with his own slash, he ducked under an Ursa's slash and blocked It's next one, Jaune gathered all of his strength and pushed the Grimm back as it lost It's footing. Thinking fast he stabbed it just before it could regain itself.

Jaune didn't noticed a Grimm behind him which he won't as Pyrrha stabbed it before it could tear him apart. Pyrrha stashed her shield behind her as she shifted her sword into a rifle and took potshots on the advancing Grimm, and then saw three Grimms from her position, coming up with an idea she threw her shield hitting it's attended targets killing them, as she used her Semblance to get her shield back, and entered once more in combat to support her crush.

Our scene changes to where Weiss is, she used her Semblance's glyphs to launch herself at a Grimm. She stabbed it and quickly retracted her rapier and dodged a slash from an incoming Beowulf, and then retaliated with a slash of her own then used an ice dust to freeze a pack of Grimms then shuttering them with an earth dust.

Yuzuki shot an Ursa in the head, then blocked a Beowulf's attack with her knife. She kicked the Grimm away staggering it and charged at It, jumping into the air and doing an overhead slash. Yuzuki killed the Beowulf she then shot a bullet which hit an Ursa in the head just before it could slash at Akira.

Akira narrowly avoided an attack from a Deathstalker, He and Ruby were taking care of said Grimm. The scythe user tried to shoot it but It's tough armor plating made it difficult for Crescent Rose to penetrate, she dodged It's stinger as she regrouped with Akira.

"How are we gonna take care of that thing?" Ruby asked dodging a claw strike from It.

"I have an idea so listen closely." Akira then whispered into Ruby's ear, she nodded as she dashed away from Akira's position.

'Sukukaja.' Akira mentally casted on himself a speed buff, as he and Ruby went along with his plan. Ruby shot her bullets at the Deathstalker to provoke it. It worked as it turned It's attention on her, Akira then charged at the distracted Grim slashing it in blinding speed as his strikes turned into black blurs, and then called out his signal.

"Crimson Rose!" He shouted as he casted a strength buff on Ruby, feeling more powerful than before, the Grimm Reaper used Crescent Rose's recoil to lunge herself at the wounded Grimm and slash It's stinger in half, and without support, the stinger fell on the Grimm killing Itself with It's own stinger. Ruby then returned to Akira's side.

"Hey! It worked." She commented. making Akira to laugh lightly.

"Of course, don't tell you doubted my plan?" He replied with a fake hurt voice. Ruby would of apologized if it weren't for the Trickster to hold out his hand stopping her.

"I'm just kidding." Akira admitted, while Ruby pouted which he had to admit was really adorable.

"Ruby, thanks for the help but I think Weiss needs it more than I do." Akira pointed at the Heiress' position who was slightly straggling against her opponents' mass numbers. Ruby knew that but what about him, will he be ok? I mean he can take care of himself just fine. It's not like Ruby has a crush oh Akira-

"Go I'll be fine." Ruby nodded and went to help her teammate. Akira was then accompanied by his sister who slashed a Grimm out of her way.

"Ah, hello Yuzuki how are you?" He asked as he casually pulled out his pistol and shot an Ursa in the head killing it.

"I'm fine, thank you for asking." She replied as she cut down a Beowulf while shooting three bullets into another.

"Good, I was afraid you wouldn't be If you look at the situation we're in." Akira said, while he sliced a Beowulf cutting It's head off and causally dodging another's claw slash letting Yuzuki to take care of It by stabbing It in the head.

"Oh no! Don't be, I was actually hoping for something like this to relive me of boredom." Yuzuki admitted while blocking a Beowulf's attack with her rifle and slashing It with her knife.

"Ah, well I'm glad that you're truthful." Akira commented as he got behind a Beowulf and tore off it's head. Then threw it at an Alpha staggering it as Yuzuki shot it with a lighting dust-infused bullet electrifying it before it died and dissolved.

After a while, all of the Grimm were all finished off with no issue, some were still fighting but ultimately failed as they were quickly dispatched. Everyone was beat and tired, so with the battle over everyone took a relaxing break to regain their stamina. Akira scanned the area with his Third eye and saw no Grimm activity, so he sighed in bliss as he sat down on the ground next to Ruby and Weiss.

"So, how are you two?" Akira asked, while making himself comfortable.

"Just a bit tired is all."

"I'm fine, thank you."

Both Ruby and Weiss respectively said at the same time. Akira nodded, and Yuzuki sat down in a seiza style. Jaune and Pyrrha were behind them sitting at a broken log that fell during the battle. moments later the three pairs decided to leave as they went to go find the rest of their classmates.

(Music stop)

The Trickster stretched his body while making a few bones crack, he hummed as he put his hands on his trenchcoat's pockets and went along with his group. When suddenly they heard an in-human screeches and saw flock of Nevermores accompanied with an undiscovered flying Grimm that looked like a dragon- no, It looked more like a wyvern than a dragon. (Do not confuse this with the Grimm Dragon from volume 3. This one is a more younger version than the one you saw.)

It's body was covered in boney armor. It's red eyes glowing, flapping It's wings as It roared, the roar itself was terrifying, but to Akira it was nothing compared to the dragons inside of his mind that was feeling angered at this 'abomination' they were seeing.

"That Abomination Is An Insult To All Of Us Dragons." Fafnir spat out in disgust as all of the dragons agreed with him.

"Is... Is that a dragon?" Jaune managed to speak out, despite the immense fear he's experiencing from the sheer presence of the Wyvern, which only served as fuel to the fire, as the dragons inside of the Trickster grew more angered at the statement of hearing him say that it was a 'Dragon'

"Trickster, You Better Deal With This Abomination Now!" A Fire Dragon demand. Pride was something a dragon has, and they have it in a huge amount. So if you were able to wound their pride than i pray that you will survive.(Hey, that rhymed)

'Don't worry, I'll deal with this.' Akira merely stepped forward eyeing the Grimm air horde, despite his friends' protest not to. Akira held his knife steadily while asking his persona: Siegfried to empower the knife with Vorpal Blade. The dragon slayer compiled, and did what he was told.

The Wyvern roared as it charged along with it's Nevermore companions, time seemed to slow down as Yuzuki, Ruby, Weiss, Pyrrha, and Jaune could only watch as the Grimms were on their way to Akira aiming to kill him. Akira smirked as he lifted his knife and swinged down.

If there was anyone else there, they would tell Akira that he just dug his own grave, but a second passed after he swung his knife down, a series of slashes broke through the air and sliced, hacked, cut, and tore through the Grimms killing them, resulting in a black mist/fog shower.

Akira turned his head to see the awestruck faces of his classmates, even giving them a spectacular view as the black mist/fog shower made his presence and aura majestic. His crimson eyes glowed brightly in the shadows. The smirked plastered on his face, which only added to his already mesmerizing position..

One thing's for sure, Akira Kurusu is a wildcard, an extremely dangerous wildcard.

Ozpin's Office

Ozpin was taking a sip of his coffee. In his other hand was a scroll monitoring the Emerald Forest, or more specifically a curtain raven-haired boy and his semblance. The Headmaster has been watching Akira and his nightly raids ever since he's been enrolled here. Nothing can go unnoticed by Ozpin as he has hidden cameras everywhere, how else was he able to get footage during the initiation? Anyway, at first he'd pass it off as not important, but as Akira kept frequently doing his nightly raids. Ozpin had gotten a little more curious about the Trickster's habit. Ozpin would observe Akira's abilities everytime he'd watched him.

So far Ozpin noted that Akira had alot of strength seeing as he's able to block a Deathstalker's pinchers as well as being able to rip off an Ursa's head with just his hands. He's agile enough to dodge just about anything the Grimms can throw at him. He's mobile enough to leap from tree to tree, and is able to out run/catch up Grimms, and on the matter of his durability, he is able to withstand a direct hit from a Deathstalker's stinger multiple times or the fact that he's able to regeneration any wounds he has with just his Aura alone. Speaking of his Aura. Akira's Aura alone was much larger than even both team RWBY and JNPR combined, and that's saying something as Jaune Arc has alot of Aura himself.

In terms of sparing against other huntsmen-in-training. Akira's no slouch. He has demolished that he can take out the likes of Cardin with no issue, and was able to go toe to toe with Ruby Rose. Ozpin knew that Akira was holding back much of his powers, and that is both a good thing and a bad thing. It's a good thing because he worries about his fellow students' safety and that he can not go all out as to not harm them. It's a bad thing because Ozpin doesn't know his full capabilities.

Ozpin however was specially curious about Akira's semblance. What the Headmaster could gather is that Akira's semblance is being able to clone himself or a summoning semblance. Ozpin is not really sure, but then again Akira is a wildcard. Just like his father. Ozpin sighed as he remembered how he failed to protect and save Shuujin along with his family. He could still remember the last words Shuujin spoke, five minutes before the attack on the Kurusu estate.

"Ozpin, I have seen something, something far more dangerous than the Grimm could ever hope to be."

"And what would that be? Shuujin?"

"It's something that even the Grimm would fear, that not even Salem could have a chance to fight against. It's the very definition of what an apocalypse is."

"But first promise me, promise me that when the time comes. You'll protect my children."

"I... I will Shuujin, now tell me, what are you talking about? how could IT be more dangerous than the Grimm?"

"Thank you, now on to business-"

Ever since then Ozpin had tired his best to keep that promise. He gave Yuzuki a home and trained her to be a huntress. He tried to find where her brother was, even when Akira had gone missing for 8 years. Ozpin would sometimes send out a team to search for the boy, and then when all hope seemed lost, by some miracle Akira showed up in the kingdom of Vale helping a girl by the name Ruby Rose. Ozpin was hesitating on whether or not it was a coincidence, but sometime Ozpin was able to piece by piece Akira's behavior, and found that it was indeed the one he was looking for. When Ozpin said the news to Yuzuki she at first was shocked, but then that shock turned to joy. Ozpin could remember the time where she cried tears of joy, for once Ozpin saw Yuzuki be truly happy, and it brought a smile on the older man's face.

And no matter what. He would protect Akira and Yuzuki. He'll keep the promise he made with Shuujin, even if he dies in the process. The council can go die for all he cares. Ozpin has lived in this world long enough to make mistakes and made sins no person could ever hope to achieve. He had seen men and women die. He had lost many of his friends, but Shuujin was one of his most treasured people, and he'll honor his friend's dying wish. It's not like he's gonna die... Yet.

And at the same time, somewhere out there. A curtain raven haired fall maiden sneezed.

And that's a wrap, now because of my now semi-experienced writing, I will rewrite every single chapter in this fanfic, so from chapter one to chapter eight expect that there'll be changes, and after that Reincarnation's forth chapter will be released. So hopefully it wont take long.

I also wanted to thank every single one of you readers who read this story, I have to admit when I first started this I wanted it to be a hobby, but now thanks to you guys I love writing each and every chapter for this, as well as thanking you for the 100 and 100+ favs and follows!

Cue happy/victory music:

But seriously thank you for all of your support, geez how many times do I have to say thank you? Lol, anyway I really appreciate all of your support on this fanfic and hopefully this thing can get a TvTropes pages.

Anyway, enough of that. Cya.

Omake…

(Note: This Omake is canon to this story and will be a major event in the future.)

It's a bright sunny day in the orphanage.

But for a young raven-haired girl. It's just another day of being called a 'Witch' In this place they call 'home' she doesn't know why, but the kids here would often call her names like witch, freak, or monster. She's doesn't even know why they call her that! They just do!

And in each waking moment, the young girl's bullying would get worse and worse than the last. Sometimes she would question why she was even born, she had little to no friends and would get called names because of how she looks.

She wondered is that the reason why her parents abandoned her when she was young, was she some sort of witch incarnate? Is she cursed to be alone with no friends? And be neglected by the people around her?

Maybe, maybe not who knows...

That was until a family of four decided to visit the orphanage. They were a well knowned family from all across of remnant especially the government of each kingdom. Every single child in the orphanage went to meet them except one raven-haired girl.

She would avoid them of course, thinking that they're the same as the people in the orphanage. She hid in one of the rooms that were empty with the windows closed and covered with curtains. Jus enough for light to pass through, but not enough for the light to completely light up the room, and it gave giving the room a relaxing feel, the young girl enjoyed the silence she rarely gotten in her everyday life. And is reading one of her favorite fantasy stories about four maidens.

She was at the middle part when suddenly a figure walked into the room she's in, the figure was a young raven-haired boy with crimson eyes that seemed to somewhat shine in the dark, he looked a bit younger than herself maybe seven-to-eight years while she's at least ten.

The boy stared at the young girl giving her a blank expression on his face. Blazing crimson met hazel-amber. The young girl felt uncomfortable with the boy's intense gaze, but just then he gave her a warm smile. She felt confused normally kids her age would call her a witch and other hurtful things. But this boy hasn't said anything and just smiled with no reason at all.

"Hello." He greeted quietly as he approached the young girl who was feeling a bit more comfortable.

"H-hi." She weakly greeted herself still not used to the kindness she's receiving. After a moment of silence, the boy started another conversation.

"What's that you got there?" He asked.

"Oh! Well.. It's a story that I love and is my favorite and, and..." She trailed off and blushed as she quickly hid away in embarrassment. The young boy went to her side and said.

"Hey are you ok?" The young girl stared at him for a while, just why is this boy so kind? Is it some sort of trick or prank? Is she being played by someone? Why? Why is she thinking this?

"It's... It's just... It's because your the first person who showed me kindness." She admitted. "People would call me witch, freak or even monster, and because of that I cry everyday. It's just so unfair! I haven't done anything to make them call me these things yet they do! I just. I just wanna-"

She was cut of from her sentence as the boy unexpectedly hugged her, shocking and freezing her in place as she felt his warm body colliding with hers, ultimately she gave in and hugged back crying softly as she enjoyed the soft embrace.

After a while they departed from their hug much to the girl's irk, she wiped her tears off of her eyes and saw the boy having the warm smile he had when he first came in.

"I don't think your a witch, freak, or a monster, all I see is a normal girl who just feels lonely and needs a friend." He stated. "And besides you look more like a maiden then a witch."

She stared at him for at least twenty seconds before giggling at the cheesy remark he made causing him to pout at her, while secretly admitting she had a cute laugh.

"I'm sorry. It's just so cheesy I couldn't resist." She somewhat managed to say out of her giggling fit.

"Hmph, well okay than, so what's your name?" He asked curiously.

"Well, my name's Cinder Fall and you are?" Cinder answered.

"I'm Akira Kurusu, nice to meet you Cinder Fall." Akira said cheerfully.

They became fast friends throughout the day, not even knowing what fate had in-store for them.
