[Arc 1]Chapter 1
Garnet Rose's POV
My sudden outburst caused both my sisters to look at me funny while...
BANG
"What's wrong!", Two voices asked out loudly.
While my father and Uncle Qrow barged into my room.
"Dad.", I called out to him which made him stunned slightly considering that I haven't called him 'dad' for over a year, since Mom died.
"I may be going insane.", I stated plain while looking at the top of both the adult's heads.
'Taiyang Xiao Long, Lv.???, Danger Level: High-High.'
'Qrow Branwen, Lv.???, Danger Level: High-High.'
"Huh?", They both voiced out.
"What do you mean, Garn?", Ruby - my twin sister - asked me.
I stared her plainly in the eyes and stated:
"For some reason I can see names and levels above people's heads. Also, I seem to have a [Mini-Map] at the corner of my vision.", I voiced out with a tinge of uncertainty.
Yang who noticed what I was hinting at realised what I was saying.
"Hey.", Yang called out to me.
"Mhm?", I tilted my head towards he direction "What?"
"Say 'Status'.", She practically ordered me with that tone of hers.
"..Status..."
When I said that an information screen popped up in front of my eyes.
"Oh. Well, that explains everything.", I voiced out because I saw a board that stated:

I turned towards Yang and tried to invite her to a [Party].
"Hmm...", I hummed in a questioning manner.
I picked up Yang's hand and then tried to invite her to a [Party].
'Do you wish to invite Yang Xiao Long to the [Party]? Y/N', A screen popped up.
I selected 'Y' which probably stands for 'Yes', then I asked Yang a question.
"Anything?"
She seemed stunned as she blankly stared into thin air. She soon began to giggle and then continued laugh whole heartedly, which admittedly was scary.
"Yes!", She voiced out loudly.
'Yang Xiao Long has joined the [Party].', Another screen appeared which then proceeded to show Yang's [Status].

"As I thought.", I heard Yang mutter with a broad smile.
"Uhh... What 'did' you think Firecracker?", Qrow raised his eyebrow as he drank a bottle of alcohol, while putting an emphasis on 'did'.
When Yang heard this question she gave a broad smile and stated:
"It seems the Garn's [Semblance] is something that makes his life become more... 'game-like' I guess.", Yang stated which left Taiyang curious.
"Game-like?", His blond eyebrow tilted.
"Yes--", Yang was going to continue talking but I interrupted.
"Its actually called [Active-Game] and it also seems like I have two [Semblances].", I stated calmly.
"Two?", My twin - Ruby - asked me as she adorably tilted her head.
"It says here that my [Semblance] is called [Petal Burst Lv.1] and [Active-Game Lv.1]."
"Two... Huh..?", Qrow muttered audibly as he downed another gulp of alcohol.
Having more than one [Semblance] may be rare, but it's not uncommon either.
Taiyang who listened in on the conversation decided to ask a question. I'm still not sure how I feel about Dad, considering that he smacked me when I was already depressed as it was when Mom died.
"So, what does this mean?", He stated confused.
I sighed and then answered him.
"It means I may have to actually do chores and go outside if I want to become stronger, or to be more precise [Level Up].", I took a deep sigh inwards and stared directly towards Dad.
"Dad...", I called him to gather his attention.
"U-uh, yeah?", He voiced out nervous.
"C-could you...", I began to speak more quietly as what I said faded into nothingness.
"Huh? I can't hear you.", He obliviously stated which made me glare at him.
"I SAID CAN YOU TRAIN ME!", I huffed towards him loudly in annoyance.
When Taiyang - Dad - heard this his eyes sparkled as he ran towards me to give a big bear hug. He wrapped his arms around me, which inadvertently made me hesitatingly respond to his hug.
Ruby my older-twin being secretly smart, shouted out one thing aloud.
"GROUP HUG!", As she jumped towards both me and Dad and hugged us.
Yang, who saw this, chuckled and decided to join in the group hug. Soon after, even Qrow nervously began to hug the family of 4 - or maybe 5 considering he's considered as their uncle - but either way they all welcomed him.
While we were in the midst of our hug, Yang asked me a question.
"Hey, Garnet.", She called out to me "Does this mean you can punch money out of your enemies?"
Now that I think about it, I probably should be able to punch coins out of my enemies.
"Technically speaking, I should be able to.", I voiced out with uncertainty.
"Sweet! Then there's an even better reason for you to get stronger."
