I sit in the back of the train in the only car "scum" like me is allowed in. I sigh as I attempt again to braid my long blood red hair. I look out the window and I remember the words of the man I had finally reached.

Andy. You have provided me with valuable information and I thank you for that. As it is you are too young to formally join the military at the age of 9. I do however believe I can find a place for you here at the academy and I would very much like to meet you in person. I have one of my top specialist set to meet you at your arrival. More details will be given then about your role here. Safe travels General James ironwood.

I sigh and tuck my scroll away thankful he hadn't questioned how I had gotten his ...personal number. Truth was I was Adam's hacker. When I was younger he'd have me hack the system so his soldiers could get in and out safely. It started when I was five. Of course my parents were already dead. He killed them one night after they all got into a fight. I saw the whole thing. No don't think about that. I stare out the window at the broken moon. I may have red hair and wolf traits but I do have one thing I am
proud of. My eyes. My silver eyes. I smile to myself. My brother mocked me for them. But not after I studied not after I learned how to use them. I smile myself. Then I sit back in the wooden chair and try to rest for a bit ...I sit up straight not long after I sat back. Something is wrong. I sigh and I stand up and I go over to where the door to the cargo is my ears perked up. You what are- I put up a hand and he shuts up. I put that hand on my weapon a staff like weapon that can be shortened made longer shoot dust and it has a hidden scythe blade. I pull out the staff and I make it it's medium length before I open the cargo hold. Idiot I mutter seeing my brother and his band of idiots. Does Senna know you're here? Lay off! He says. She's going to kill you! She won't I say. I explained myself to her and she understood. You I don't. I thought you wanted to follow orders instead you disobey them. Putting your life and the others in danger. Senna does not condone that. Hey mr. they're in here. Andy says turning as Adam says you're not going to fight?! I'm not going to fight you brother. Andy says as a few guards come into the chamber. Whatever Adam says escaping leaving the other Faunus to meet their fate. These are kids. One of the guards say. It's a gang Andy says my brother leads it. Then- she left one of the other Faunus says. She played no role in any of it. I shake my head to the girl only seven. I turn to the guard. He threatens them and their families. He sighs. We still have to question them. Do not harm them Andy says. Please this is a chance to stop things like this from happening. The man nods. I understand. Please go back to you seat miss. Andy! One of the younger Faunus calls to her. It's Gina she's only six and a half. A chameleon Faunus. One of the guards kneels down to her. What's your name he says. Gina she says sniffing. How old are you? I'm six. She says. Why are you here?   Beca'tadum said he'd kill my parents like he killed his if I didn't help him. He ...she starts crying and Andy sighs. The man releases her and she runs to Andy. She knows you the guard says. This is why I left. I wanted to get help for them. A lot of them are orphans sir. They would be treated no better then zoo animals at any orphanage. I couldn't stay there after he did what he did. That 15 year old boy? The guard says. Yes. Andy says. The guard sighs. I really ...this hasn't happened before I understand. What would you do if they didn't  have cat ears and tails? The man smiles. I like you he says.  But he frowns. I'd see if I could find them a relative he says. Then do the same for them please. This is where it starts. My brother ...other's like him made their choice. These are children sir. I'm just asking you to treat them decently and not like animals. The man nods in understanding. I will do all that I can he says. How can I reach you with their progress? I will he staying at the academy in atlas my name is Andy Torres. Thank you the man says. And for the record I have always thought the Faunus was short handed with the island. It isn't the masses it's the people up top he says. You are doing well for your age. He says smiling. Thank you sir. My name is I bend down and then I look up at the man. What is your name sir? I ask him. I'm sorry I- it's quite alright. My name is Roger Schnee he says. Sometimes I over see the transit of my dust. You my girl have just saved me a lot of money. Oh. Andy says. I..I'm sorry I thought you were a guard and- the man chuckles. It's quite alright my dear girl. I have a granddaughter just a bit older than you but I think you would be good for her. Thank you? He smiles. You say you will be at the academy? Yes sir. Then I will arrange a meeting he says. You see he looks down she is a wonderful girl but sometimes this line of work creates enemies even if you try your best to do everything right mistakes are made. He says. She has lost friends in that way. Oh. I'm sorry. Miscommunication and misunderstandings are two of the worst things in this world. Agreed the man says. He goes over to the dust and he picks up an entire case. Consider your dust payed for he says handing her a case. I...befriend my granddaughter he says. I will not always be around to watch out for her. Oh he chuckles she can take care of herself but there is more to a young girl than just surviving whether it is a harsh political climate in a prestigious family or ...a dynamic of cutthroats he says. Andy smiles. Thank your sir I...I will do my best to befriend your granddaughter I..I haven't had a friend either. Senna was always more of a ...cold hearted mother. Hmmm. It is quite late and I know that a young lady such as yourself needs her beauty sleep. Do not worry dear girl I am a trained huntsman. Andy nods. Thank you sir. She goes back to her seat and lays down. Thankfully she is the only one occupying the bench and she  soon drifts off to sleep this time without hearing the screaming of her parents.
