Beginning of the Sorrow

At the little island named Patch, six years old child was walking with his father towards the home.

"Papa," said the child with sparkling eyes. "Can I have ice cream, please?" he said eagerly.

They have played at the park for some time, and now they were heading back home early then they have planned for a particular reason.

'Typical,' thought Kurt's father, Adrian with disgust. People were looking at his son with awe since he was a Faunus. Well, a half-Faunus to be more exact.

His demeanor changed soon after he looked at his son's lively eyes. "Alright, kiddo~," he said softly. "But you can't eat much since it will make you sick," he added with concern.

"Ah, C'mon, papa. Have a little faith in me," said Kurt with a fake pout.

Adrian laughed at his son's acting skills. "Nope~," he said sarcastically. He patted his son's head with a smirk and said, "Well, for not letting eat you more, should we play some video games at home? Hmm?"

Kurt's eyes shined instantly. "Really?" he asked excitedly.

Adrian nod with a smirk. "Imma is not gonna easy on you tho," he said sarcastically.

"Heh, you gonna lose anyway, old man!" countered Kurt sarcastically too.

Adrian laughed again. He was not giving his everything on his son on video games. 'Yet, another loss for my high self,' he thought with soft eyes that looked at his son.

"Okay, little sir," said Adrina with a grin. "Shall we?" He said and pointed to the ice cream stand.

/*-*\

"Hey papa," said Kurt with a yawn. It was midnight. Kurt woke up because he couldn't sleep for some reason.

"What's up, little man?" asked Adrian softly. He looked at the time on his scroll. "You should sleep if you want to be energetic when we do BBQ," he added with a smirk.

Kurt wiped his eyes and yawned again. "I can't sleep," he said weakly. He looked like he could collapse to sleep at any moment.

Adrian laughed. "Alright, shall we sleep together?" he asked softly.

"Hm," Kurt said with a nod and walked to the bedroom.

~~~~~~

Adrian was in bed with his son. He looked at his son, kindly.

'You look exactly like your mother,' he thought. His eyes were soft.

He looked at his son's dark hair and wolf airs. Kurt was indeed a tad taller than his peers, like his father.

'Well, not everything comes from mother, of course,' he thought with cracked happiness.

Kurt was a dark-haired, snow blue-eyed child. He was a bit taller than the others.

He was a little scary to other children, his tall and handsome figure with a sharp face could be seen even inside of the baby fat.

'Maybe, because he is a part wolf?' Adrian thought with interest.

Then he laughed softly. 'He was scary to others? His personality is a completely different matter, tho,' Adrian thought with a smirk.

Kurt was a shy child. He couldn't open up to others easily.

'The fact that he is a faunus doesn't help either,' Adrian thought darkly.

Kurt was abused and was shunned by the people because he was just a faunus.

'Fucking idiots,' Adrian thought with a sneeze. He almost had enough to those circumstances.

He looked at his son's sleeping figure again. "Whatever," he murmured, his eyes turned softback.

"Tomorrow is the last day on my vacation," he murmured again a little irritatedly. He put his head to the pillow and closed his eyes.

"I can deal with it after tomorrow," he said and sleep.

~~~~~~~~

The next day, on the last day of Adrian's vacation, they went to the north side of the Patch to settle off.

Adrian thought it was a good idea to bring his son here. That place not crowded, almost isolated. He can easily play with his son and felt at ease since there were no people who could abuse his son.

...Not a lot of people, at least.

"Come, papa! Let's race!!" yelled Kurt while pointing the sea.

Adrian smiled. "You think you can beat me?" he said sarcastically.

Kurt nodded with a smirk and dashed towards the sea.

Adrian laughed again with an evil grin. "So be it!" he yelled and ran to the sea as well.

~~

They have eaten, play, and laughed for hours. It was one of the happiest days of Kurt's life.

Currently, they were eating the last pieces of meat together. Kurt was eating with his mount full while Adrian was eating slowly.

Suddenly, Kurt's eyes twitched.

"Hmm?" he murmured and looked at the sound's source as he stood up curiously. His blue eyes opened wide as soon as what caused the noise.

It was a beowolf.

Kurt choked his foot and tried to step back, back he tripped and fell his butt.

It was the first time he saw a Grimm. He was shocked to move, but in a sudden, he saw his father stood in front of him.

"Run, Kurt! RUN!!" he yelled firmly, but the words didn't reach Kurt.

He was a six years old child, and this was the very first time he saw a creature like that.

He was frozen, stiff, scared.

Beowolf dashed to Kurt; it felt Kurt's fear, but Adrian was just a little bit faster than it.

He grabbed his son by his collar and threw him away. By doing that, he received beowolf's attack by his back.

"Arg!" he cried in pain and collapsed. The attack cracked his spine and shredded his backside.

"R-Ru-," beowolf bitten him before he finished his sentence. He was looking at his son pleadingly as if he was saying to run.

"P-Papa?" Kurt Stuttered in shock. His eyes were looking at his father's dying eyes.

"PAPA!" he yelled with every air in his livers. His eyes shined blue in the darkness and locked at beowolf. A blue aura surrounded him, and a strange feeling filled his insides.

Yet, he didn't think of that. He dashed beowolf with pure rage.

Beowolf stopped biting his father and looked at Kurt. He immediately dashed towards Kurt as well.

Kurt saw sensed attack unknowingly. A strange force was helping him to attack, kill, 'NO! Destroy this monster!' he thought.

He rolled and dashed to dodge the attack by his little body. Beowolf fell and stumbled. It didn't have much intelligence to begin with, so it charged directly and tripped.

Kurt grasped his hand firmly and jumped to stumbling beowolf. He punched him right next to his chest and somewhat managed to hurt it.

But it was not enough. Beowolf swung its arm and hit Kurt fatally.

Kurt sent flying to the tree and crushed. The tree almost cracked and fell. It was a matter of time to its fell.

Beowolf didn't wait to attack Kurt again. He ran towards him fastly, while Kurt was struggling to stood up.

He couldn't stand and fell. He saw beowolf was very close to him now.

A little tear fell from his eye. He looked at his father's dead body, sorrowfully.

'Papa,' he thought while great exhaustion fell on him. He tried to look at the Grimm, and he saw he was no here.

Instead, a red-eyed man was looking at him, and that was the last thing he saw.
