She dreams of that night often. The night Pandora's Box crashed into the small woods outside her house on that little island of Patch. The day she saw the two heroines like her mother.

The day she met a special person.


"The grimm are swarming around that box! TanTan, put up heavy duty and keep it safe! I'll escort the children away!" The one in red shouted, picking up the two girls who stood before her. She ran them as fast as she could away from the crash site, only looking back once when the blue one let out a mighty yell.

She set them down just outside the forest limits, and gave them pats on their heads. "You two head home, we'll take care of the rest from here." The red lady spoke, running back into the forest to where her partner still fought. So the kids ran home as fast as their little legs carried, the father they love getting them inside before rushing off after the other Hunters in the area to assist them.

So they sat at home for hours, until the door opened to reveal not only their dad, but their Uncle too! That means they get before bed! The children excitedly rush over to greet the two adults, before their father gave them a slight hush. In their excitement, they failed to see the Uncle was carrying something.

He set the thing down, to reveal it was another kid! Her hair was really dirty, but it was red and blue! It was super cool, because it matched her eyes too. She looked at the other kids for a moment, before hiding behind the Uncle from nervousness.

"Ruby, Yang, this is Violet. She's gonna be staying here from now on." The adults told them. Yang just looked at the girl, while Ruby was more interested in the snack that their Uncle had given the three kids.

"Hey dad… Why are her eyes different colors?" Yang asked. She just kept looking at the eyes of the new addition to the family, and all the dad could do was sigh.

"It's a long story Yang, one I can tell you when you're older. For now though, you two go to bed, Violet here still needs to get used to the house…"

The kids didn't realize until much later in life, that they never saw the blue and red huntresses return from the woods.


Ruby woke up from her dream with a satisfying yawn. Well, she would say it was more like a memory than anything else, considering that was exactly what happened the night that she met Violet. Speaking of which, she hadn't heard any Remnant shattering kabooms yet, so that must mean either she's still asleep or working on an experiment that doesn't require explosive chemicals.

She made her way out of her room, greeting the small corgi on her way out. She walked down the wooden hall and knocked on the blue and red door at the end. Today was Violet's turn to make breakfast after all, so she expected something weird but tasty. The door opened slowly to reveal a more grown up girl from Ruby's dream.

She now stood at about six feet in height, her mismatched eyes shining bright, as she rubbed them to open and wake up. Her hair grew out over the years, but she kept it relatively short, showing a more natural looking black underneath.

Violet looked at Ruby, before letting out a small yawn. "Yeah Ruby? I don't think I'm supposed to wake up for another hour or so…" She spoke in a tired tone, her voice dry yet caring. Ruby nodded slightly, technically Violet would be right here, her wake up isn't until much later in the morning. Except…

"We're heading into Vale today, remember? The parts we ordered came in today!" She rushed out in an excited manner. Ruby finally managed to convince Violet to build a weapon instead of staying in her room and messing with chemicals all day in an attempt to figure out the weird mist that appears in the forest every four months our so.

"Oh…." Violet just closed her eyes for a moment as she thought over what Ruby had said. Then suddenly, part of her raised up looking like a rabbit whose ears just sensed something. "OH! That's right, I almost forgot!" Her eyes shot open as she closed her door suddenly. It didn't even take a moment for her to pop back out of the room again, dressed in a red and blue hoodie shirt, ripped jeans, and her signature black skate shoes. "Don't you have to get ready too? Go get dressed while I make breakfast, and get Yang and TaiDad up."

Violet rushed down the stairs to the kitchen, as Ruby just watched her move past. Sometimes, she swears that Violet can move almost as fast as her. She merely walked back to her room, giving knocks on the doors of the other two family members as she did.


After about thirty minutes, Ruby made her way downstairs, dressed up in her favorite combat skirt outfit. There she smelled the most interesting of scents coming from the kitchen. This was the most fun part of Violet's Breakfast days. She always changed what she made, usually focusing on two main parts, with a third secret piece. If any of the family got the pieces right, they got more than the rest.

Ruby usually fails, losing out to Yang and her dad, but not this time. She closed her eyes and made way into the kitchen, taking in a good whiff of the food as she entered.

"Alright, I got this. Pancakes and scrambled eggs, but… You put steaks into the pancakes!" Ruby guessed out, pointing at where she thought Violet was. It was then her hand was dragged down to a plate, where she finally opened her eyes.

There she saw… What she guessed! Indeed there were pancakes and eggs, and tiny pieces of steak inside the breakfast centered baked goods. Violet gave small clap of her hands, before going back to making food. "Nice job Ruby! Looks like you get the extra serving today!" Ruby gave a big grin, and puffed out her chest, before she decided to begin eating the fruits of her victory… or rather, steaks of her victory.

Soon after, the tall blonde the two other girls called their sister and the even taller father of the trio walked into the kitchen, both eyes closed. Violet and Ruby gave a small chuckle, as Violet went and stopped the two from walking in further. "Sorry you two, but Ruby won today, so no more guessing." As the two stopped with a slump, opening their eyes.

"Aw man, but I was for sure gonna want more. You have pancakes, and those are always good when you make them." Yang whined, as she took a seat at the table. She looked at her sister, who just gave her a goofy smile as she continued to eat her share of breakfast. "You didn't use you Dragon bottle to cheat, did you?!" She teased, poking her sisters cheeks full of food.

Violet gave a sigh, as she placed a plate of food in front of Yang. "Yang, the dragon bottle doesn't enhance sense of smell, and you know this because you were the one who discovered the bottle that did. And you know I lock dog up now after the whole cinnamon bun accident." Yang was frozen in shock before chuckling in a fluster.

"Yeah sun dragon, we don't want a repeat of almost destroying the house with explosive sneezes again do we?" The groups dad spoke, Violet placing a plate in front of him as he sat down, joining them all at the table as she brought her own plate. She began to chow down with a big grin on her face.

"Hey, it's not my fault Violet decided to put extra pepper on those sausages! Besides, it's not like I was using the bottle other than that one time!" Yang argued back, taking another bite off of her pancakes. Violet gave her a deadpan look before offering her counterpoint. "Yang I put that pepper there, because you had been using dog to cheat for three weeks at that point."

Yang froze up again, before mumbling something and going back to eating. The rest of the table gave a small laugh as they continued to eat. And soon enough after the banter and breakfast, it was time for the group to head out.

"I want you kids to take care. Especially you Violet, I know how you get when you see new stuff to experiment with, so be careful!" The three's father shouted out as the three teenagers left the house. "You got it TaiDad!" Violet responded back, pulling out her blocky scroll in the process. Taiyang only sighed as the door closed behind the three. "Honestly… What am I going to do with her?"


"So you said you have a way to get to the ship docks fast enough, that we won't have to use Bumblebee back and forth?" Yang asked, opening up the small garage off to the side of the house, pulling out her adored motorcycle. Violet nodded, shaking a small yellow bottle and placing it into her blocky scroll. The device unfolded and grew in size, until it landed at a mere three feet off of the ground. Hovering in place, the now board shaped phone had a gear saw at its front, and a black and red hazard coloring scheme surrounding its border.

"I'm still not used to using a motorcycle, especially since the flight mode still has a few kinks to buff out, so Machine Builder is out of the question. My dear ladies, may I introduce you, to the Boarding Builder! Yet another of my genius creations!" Violet boasted, hopping on top of the board, letting it sway underneath her. Ruby's eyes sparkled as she rushed all around the board, Yang rolling her eyes as she pulled her younger sister away from it, and onto the back of Bumblebee.

"Cool machine Vi, but can really match my bike's speed? I mean, after all it's just a hoverboard with a bottle in it." Yang smirked, grazing a hand over the yellow bike like it was a pet. Violet smirked, putting on a pair of mismatched goggles, as suddenly clamps latched onto her feet. The two girls eyes widened for a moment when they saw this, Yang nervously chuckling a little bit as she hopped onto her bike.

"We'll just have to see, won't we?" Violet spoke, and with that she was off. The board racing off towards the airship docks, leaving Yang and Ruby in its dust. The two could drop their jaws as they saw the red and blue girl race off before them. Yang quickly changed her expression into a large and cocky grin as she revved up Bumblebee, before racing after her.


"You cheated! You totally cheated!" Yang whined as she cruised on top of Bumblebee, Ruby planting herself firmly on the back of the bike, Violet on top of her board as the three moved along the streets of Vale. She looked at Yang with a smirk, her hands resting softly against her hair. "I don't know how I could've cheated… It's not like we set up any rules for our nonexistent race…" Violet teased back, her board accelerating a little.

Eventually the group came to a stop in front of a small store, From Dust Till Dawn. There Ruby hopped off of Bumblebee, and Violet hopped off of Builder, letting the board fold back into its scroll form. She quickly grabbed it and placed it into her pocket. Yang gave them a wave goodbye as she went off to do whatever it was she was going to do, which was returned by the other two as they walked into the store.

Inside the store the two split up, Ruby going to the back to look at weapon catalogues as she put her headphones on, while Violet was told by the clerk that her item was in the back. She had already paid for it, she just needed to put it on and her project would be done.

As she walked off, and grabbed the small yellow drill end off a stack of boxes, she barely noticed the door open. It was then she felt something cold and hard press into her back. "Hands up. Nothing sudden, or else. Now pull out your wallet and give me all the lien you have." Violet stiffened up slightly. She wasn't expecting to be robbed, but she could slip out of this.

She looked around her while she slowly reached into her pocket. 'Okay, we have a man behind me, at least around my height. I've got a small barrier to my right, and a wall to the left. If I apply a little aura, I could survive the bullet, but I'd still be hurt at point blank. But if I use one of the lein coins I have on me…'

She pulled out a small coin, and putting her thumb underneath flicked it out. "Whoops…" She said in a faux scared tone, as the coin bounced off the shelf to her right, then off of the wall, before landing in the eye of her would be robber. Quickly spinning around, Violet pulled out a small red bottle from her pocket, giving it a shake before giving a swift jab to the criminal.

At the same time across the store, a similar event was happening with Ruby. A man went to rob her, she pulled out a light blue bottle, and kicked him away. The two crooks went flying through the store windows, followed by the blurs of the two girls.

Landing outside, Ruby pulled a small bar out from behind her, the piece of metal quickly unfolding into a giant scythe of grand proportion. Stabbing it into the ground, she looked at Violet who merely smirked as she pulled out an odd looking belt buckle. Strapping it to her waist, it wrapped around her in a yellow belt, as she took out a blue bottle and began to shake it alongside the red one from before.

Suddenly a small crowd of similar looking crooks swarmed out of the store, followed by a man in white and a bowler hat. "I've got to say red, mismatch, I'm impressed. Not only did you manage to kick some of my men at speeds only hunters could do, you managed to piss me off as fast as hunters do too. Now, I'm willing to forget this ever happened, just so long as you let us leave."

"Do you really expect us to be a couple of idiot kids that just automatically listen to adults no matter what?" Violet stopped shaking the bottles, twisting the caps on top of them with her thumbs before placing them into her buckle.

"RABBIT! TANK! BEST MATCH!"

The man in white scowled as he clicked his tongue. "Guess not. After all, brats are always smarter than they look." He let out sarcastically, watching as pipes began to form around Violet. The pipes began flowing with red and blue liquid, beginning to resemble armor towards the ends. Violet let out a smirk as she began to turn the handle on her buckle, the bottles shaking more, the machine letting out a mechanical song as she cranked.

As she finished, the liquids began to take a solid form, creating actual armor as it swirled around in the pipes. Finally the machine let out a confirmation noise, Violet punching the palm of her hand before throwing her arms to her sides.

"ARE YOU READY?!"

"Henshin!" The armor slammed onto her body, causing a large amount of steam to pile off of her, as the mooks and man in white could only stare in awe at what had happened. She couldn't possibly be real right? This girl being some kind of armored superhero was just an illusion right?!

"THE HOPPING STEEL MOONSAULT! RABBITTANK! YEAH!"

The eyes of the armor shone brightly, the red forming the side of a rabbit, the blue forming that of a tank. Her armor crossed over itself, yet it blended together as if it was always supposed to be these two together. She dragged the tip of her index finger along the tank's barrel, folding the finger back in before letting it burst into full openness at the end.

"My victory for success, is calculated!" She exclaimed proudly, as Ruby merely rolled her eyes. The two stood ready to fight, as the mooks just stood in awe. The man in white pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed. "Well, get them!" He shouted as he pointed his cane towards the two girls.

Violet rushed a small group first, letting Ruby to fend off the rest. She punched the first one she got close enough to, sending her fist into his lower jaw. The soft glow of red aura said she hit, but the blood that leaked out of the man's mouth meant she broke the aura for a second. The other three saw their bleeding comrade and quickly rushed at Violet all together. She kicked the first one away, sending a sidekick into his ribs, causing him to gasp for air as he was sent back. She grabbed the second one, kneed him in the stomach, and tossed him away. Lastly, she jumped up high, her red leg glowing for a split second, before axe kicking the third one, sending him into the pavement.

Flourishing a couple backflips, she moved back to Ruby, where she was sending the last of her opponents away. Quickly shaking her bottle, she loaded it into the scythe, an image of a dragon popping out.

"DRAGON!"

She took aim at the last goon, and fired the shot. A small bullet, quickly sped out of the weapon, before it was shrouded in a veil of blue energy, followed by the image of a dragon. It made impact with the goon, sending him flying behind the man in white.

Once more all he could do was pinch the bridge of his nose and sigh. "Worth every penny, truly. Well Red, Mismatch. Seems like it's time for me to make my leave. But don't worry, I have a parting gift for you!" He once more raised his cane, as the bottom opened and it fired out a round of glowing red dust.

Violet rushed in front of Ruby, and swatted the arm away with her blue tank arm. When the explosion occurred behind them, the man in white was already escaping up a nearby ladder. The store clerk walked as fast as he could out of the store, looking at the knocked out goons on the street.

Violet met up with him, as Ruby ran after the man. "We'll take care of that guy to the best of our abilities, you call the police and arrest these guys." She spoke as quickly and calmly as she could, the man giving her a nod before she raced off after Ruby. With another glow of her red rabbit leg, she scaled the building in a single jump.

There on the roof, she was met with an unusual sight. Ruby had changed her scythe into a sniper rifle, and was firing upon a helicopter, accompanied by a blond woman in what seemed like the kind of clothes a teacher would wear in one of those dramas they would watch on TV, but with a cape. The two were trading blows between the vehicle, in a constant back and forth.

"Shit, I don't have anything long range! If only I had that p- OH WAIT!" Violet pulled out the yellow drill tip, as pipes formed from the silver gear in her belt, a large drill with no head forming at the top. She quickly grabbed it by the handle, as she placed the end at the top, the drill tightening around. She detached the end, and placed the yellow piece inside the side of the handle, as the machine whirred to life.

"DRILL CRUSHER!"

She began to fire at the helicopter, rushing forwards to meet with the other two. For a moment, the blonde woman paused in her tracks, looking at the armored person beside her, she shook it off as she went back to attacking.

The helicopter continued to get further away, which is when Violet decided enough was enough. She pulled the blue bottle out of her driver, and placed it into the handle of her weapon. An image of a tank appeared for a second, as the machine called out.

"READY GO!"

With a whir and loop of funky music, energy began to gather in the barrel of the drill gun, Violet beginning to hold the weapon in both of her hands, as she took a steady aim at the flying vehicle. Soon, a glowing blue ball of energy formed at the end and she pulled the trigger.

"VOLTECH BREAK!"

The blue ball of energy fired out, forming into the shell of a tank round, hitting one of the blades keeping the vehicle in flight. The helicopter began to smoke, as it moved faster away from the group.

"That should keep it going too far, maybe we can still catch it!" Violet said in hurry as she went to run after it, but was stopped in her tracks by a purple light surrounding her legs. She tried to find the source but instead she was dragged off of the roof by something she couldn't see yet.


How did she get in this situation? She was stuck in a room at the police station, where the blonde woman was staring her down, with zweihanders instead of daggers. She wanted nothing more than to leave, but soon enough a man in a green suit walked in, his cane making taps on the ground every so often. He took a seat in front of her at the table, giving a comforting smile.

"I would offer you some cookies, but our red friend ate them all in a flurry." He gave with a chuckle, causing Violet to chuckle with him. She could imagine Ruby scarfing down the treats super fast, probably mumbling something too.

"It's fine, I imagine it would be harder to talk with anyways." She spoke back in the calmest tone she could manage. She didn't know why she was here, but she imagined it would be important in a sense. The man simply nodded, before he took out a scroll and showed her footage of the fight she was just a part of.

"Tell me, where did you learn to fight like this? I've never seen anybody fight with armor like this, and not in such a quick style fashion, constantly changing their style." He got out. Straight to the point, Violet nodded before responding.

"The fighting styles came from studying my sister Yang as well as other hand to hand styles. As for the armor, I made it myself. I made it so I could protect my family from those weird monsters that would come from the forest sometimes. They stopped appearing a year or so ago though, so now I just use it to train." She explained, the man in green nodded along, as on the scroll he brought up a wall of text and turned it to himself.

"Yes, your name is Violet Rabbitan, correct? You've been living with the Xiao Long's and Ms. Rose for about ten years since you were found at the age of six inside of the forest when the Pandora Box crashed on Remnant. Birth parents: Scarlet Rabbina and Azure Tannka, both missing since the discovery of the box." He concluded, setting the scroll on the table, as Violet looked down. She never liked talking about her real parents, after all she doesn't remember them. She should've since she would've lived with them for six years by then, but she was told that the Box messed with her memories.

"Tell me, Ms. Rabbitan, why did you decide to fight these monsters? Surely aside from being in debt to this family, you had an ulterior motive?" The man prodded her, locking his hands together as he set his elbows on the table's surface.

"Oh no, my family said they would've taken me in under any conditions. Any debts I would've had were wiped when I finally started calling them my family. As for my motive…" She looked down for a moment, a frown forming on her face. She looked back at the man with a look of determination, seen only by him on the faces of far older huntsmen, ones who had been fighting for the majority of their lives. "I created the driver so that my family could live in peace, and be surrounded by the same love they gave me. Now, if I see anybody in trouble, I can't help but fight for them as well. The one thing I desire, is a world full of Love and Peace."

The man looked at her in surprise. A child such as this already has a purpose to achieve. Sure it is a hard stretch to achieve this goal, but the look she gave him was telling of how she would surely achieve this feat. The last time he had seen such a face was when he met a rose that had bloomed in summer…

"Tell me, do you know who I am?" He asked, lowering his arms down into his lap, as he smiled wider. Violet shook her head in response, while the man leaned forward in his chair. "I am Professor Ozpin, the headmaster of Beacon Academy, and Ms. Rabbitan, I would like for you attend my school so that you can achieve this dream of yours. Your dream of Love and Peace."

Violet's eyes widened in response. The headmaster of the famous hunting school… Wants her? This was a dream surely, but not a bad one. She quickly nodded her head, ending with a bow. "I would be honored to attend Beacon Academy, sir!"


Ruby and Violet were embraced in a tight hug by the yellow brawler, as the two struggled for air. "Oh, I'm so happy my little sisters are both attending Beacon with me! This is gonna be so awesome!" Ruby was basically clawing at Yang to escape. When she finally let go, the two were gasping for air.

"Please don't make a big deal over this. I'm awkward enough about this as is, I don't need more anxiety piled on that." Ruby let, in between gasps for breath. Yang looked at her with a quizzical look. "Why not, you got moved ahead two years? And Violet you weren't even in a training academy before here! You two should be pumped about this!"

"Don't get us wrong Yang, we are excited, but we're also nervous. We got moved ahead so much, and don't know if we're ready for such difficult tasks such as this. Imagine how much Ruby's grades are going to suffer because she got in on combat!" Violet argued back, her breath finally catching up to her. Ruby, catching up as well offered a point as well. "I'm already terrible with math, so I'm glad Vi will be able to help me study, but she'll have trouble with Grimm studies at first, since she's still working on biological chemistry! Yang, we're happy, but we don't want to be treated as special."

"Aw, but why not? You two are for sure going to be popular, the Bee's knees in fact!" She let out with a chuckle, the two responding with a sigh. "I don't want to be the bee's knees Yang, I don't want any kind of knees! I just want to be a normal girl, with normal knees." Ruby replied, as Violet looked over to see a news program playing.

It was showing bits of the robbery from the night before, as the man in white was revealed to be notorious criminal Roman Torchwick. Just as the reporter went to speak about a White Fang rally, it switched to Glynda Goodwitch, the night from before going on about some kind of speech about how great Beacon was. At that Violet was still thinking about Roman.

'What was he doing in that store anyways? It said he was involved in a string of dust robberies all over, but who would need that much dust?' She snapped out of her thoughts when Ruby tugged on her sleeve to look out the window. There she saw the grand castle of a school that was Beacon Academy.

"There it is, Beacon Academy. Our home for the next four years…" Ruby let out, watching as the scenery passed by. The three girls hugged each other, but the moment was ruined when a blonde boy in armor came walking over and found that Yang's boots were the best place to unload his breakfast.

"OH MY GODS I AM SO SORRY!"

"EWWWWW, GROSSGROSSGROSSGROSSGROSS GROSSSSSSS!"

"YOU BETTER HELP CLEAN THESE! VIOLET PULL OUT CLEANER!"

Violet sighed as she looked out the window. This was going to be an interesting time.


Hey there! Bet you didn't expect his did you? Yeah, I kinda wrote myself into a wall with Cyclone Effected Petals, and hadn't started on the remake of Build Up Fate I said I was going to make. That's my b.

But I'm here now! And I'm posting in two places! That's right, if you're reading this on AO3, welcome to my stories. I think they are all shit, but people like them for some reason! Anyways, if you're on I've already deleted Build Up Fate. Meanwhile CEP is gonna be on Hiatus until otherwise stated.

Now for the question people wanted to know most! Why do I put openings on my fics? Well, it helps me organize at which part of the story I'm in! I have trouble remembering things, and I'm always looking far too ahead in the plot of my stories. I put the op's there so I can pick up where I was in the plot and continue you accordingly. We wouldn't wanna go from slice of life to death drama in the blink of an eye now would we?

I haven't decided on an OP for the first arc, but seeing as this is a remake, I was thinking maybe Chozetsu Dynamic? I'm not sure, but if any of you reading this have suggestions please give them to me! I'm saving Be The One for the very end of the plot, so that's just a heads up.

Anyways, enjoy the read! Oh and here's the mock preview for next chapter whenever that is!

Jackie!


Next Time, On Building Colors!

Violet: You really shouldn't shake dust vials like that, someone could've gotten hurt in an explosion.

?: She's the heiress to the Schnee dust company, but I didn't expect someone to lecture her on using dust. Guess they have plenty to learn, aside from learning to treat its Faunus employees fairly.

Ruby: Do you think the Cross-Z system will ever be ready?

Violet: I don't know how you ended up like this Yang, but I will save you!

Building Colors: 60/30 = 2. The Shining Dragon
Violet: Build Up!
