Four years passed and now I'm currently sitting in the city of Vale near the upper class area. Things have been pretty wild over the last four years, relationships budded and battles were fought. I improved as much as I could while having fun along the way.

I've gained a few scars along the way, a particular one was from a major battle during my family's camping trip to Anima. We encountered a familiar horse Grimm with stretchy limbs near the ruins of Shion.

My family had their first major team up and I discovered that in terms of strength I've well surpassed my father after he got batted away by the Nuckelavee'S swipes yet I could tank the hit. I put Atreus to the test and added a few other arrows imbedded in its Boyd before we inevitably killed it.

I got involved in the under world for abit tossing my cards in the bounty hunting game. Got to fight some interesting characters with strange semblances. One girl had the ability to make you literally face your fear. I just went full losers club on all the shit it spawned out on me. Turns out that was effective.

My hardest fight was facing a guy with the ability to manipulate Ink and he figures out how to infuse his semblance with dust. The amount he had made him impervious to most of my attacks and by swapping out the dust with ice and water dust I couldn't ignite the ink. So my solution was to rip my armour off and Amp up the water dust I'd infused into the suit. I just kept pumping out the water until his ink was diluted enough that he couldn't control it.

My family life was pretty good with almost all my sisters going off to follow their passions after attaining a hunters license. The combat schools are the main way but there are alternatives such as a government certified combat exam. I'm still going to beacon hence I came to Vale to take the test.

The written exam was a breeze for me thanks to aura improving my brain function, more memory space and a better recall. Hunters are actually expected to be able to develop an improved memory through aura usage to remember their training and mission details.

After that was an obstacle course which I breezed through. I basically hopped over most obstacles almost tacet shocking some people. Speed related tests I clocked in somewhere just average for speedsters once I amplified my speed. Strength I was one of the top because I smashed the punching machine like saitama. Reaction speed was to the point I could react to bullets once I amplified that aspect.

My semblance is op because of its versatility, I'll never be able to enhance one aspect as much as someone who specialises in it with their semblance however by pumping in more aura which I have massive reserves off I can match them or even go beyond.

Expanding aura reserves is relatively simple, age is the main method of expansion but that's too slow. The second is near death experiences which for someone who has already died is pretty easy. Third is by exhausting your aura to the point of nearly passing out on a daily basis. I even tried condensing it for a period to improve quality and got some decent gains.

I sit in a bar sipping away on a Gold shimmery, I've been sampling a few drinks trying to find my new favourite. It's pretty nice, the drinking age in remnant is 16+ so since I turned 16 last year I was on a quest to find a new favourite as my preferred brands don't exist.

Tried recreating them myself but that was a disaster waiting to happen. My father decided to try his hand and developed a remnant equivalent to everclear. Sales boomed among huntsmen once it hit the market.

*gulp* I sloshed down the last of my drink before checking my scroll. Messages from Arslan and Pyrrha were there. I enjoyed scanning through the conversations while mild jazz played in the background.

Arslan and Pyrrha actually ended up becoming best friends after they discovered a very important thing. Alone they couldn't beat me no matter what they tried, but together! They could get half a beating~. Once I turned sixteen the two girls actually confessed to me. I was shell shocked at the time not knowing how to process it which caused the two to laugh at my face.

I accepted of course, we began dating and touring Mystral in our dates either as a duo or a trio. Polygamy is a thing in remnant, due to the high likelihood of death the people became much more sexually promiscuous. Tai yang being one obvious display.

Arslan chose to go to Vacuo's academy with some off her friends but promised to "wring me dry" when they transfer over for the vytal festival. Pyrrha is joining me here in five days so I'm just biding my time.

I chose to come here the long way around five months ago. Did a whole motor cycle turn to broaden my horizons. I got my own back which is the same model as yangs before I modified it. The combustion dust is now more efficient and less damaging to the entire once I got the right insulator. I also lowered the noise of the bike by fixing the muffler. It's similar to bumblebee in shape but with a white and silver paint job instead.

I named her "Prominence" and she really suits to the title. Every time I made a stop there was always an envious or greedy state towards her. But a knuckle crack and a beating later drove most of the would be thieves off. Those with gangs backing them decided to call their buddies which just led to an increase in my back account. Bounty hunting is such a good way to make money.

As I was about to order another drink I heard a *kaboom* outside followed by screaming. I tossed a card filled with enough to cover the drinks at the bartender before rushing out of the bar. I saw a spray painted bull head in broken fang colours bursting through the city limits.

I looked at my outfit and saw only a muscle shirt and cargo. Sighing I rushed over to prominence and unhooked the seat compartment pulling out Atreus. The others are all already stored away and he should be enough I thought at I started the ignition and took off after the bad guys.

- surrender in flames by Rustage.

I rocketed down the streets after the rampaging faunus, their exit hatch was damaged so I saw four people armed and guarding a Payload of what I assumed to be stolen dust, one of them I didn't get a clear visual on. One of them that had rabbit ears twitched his faunus appendage before snapping his head to me.

He barked out that there was a "human scum" chasing after them. They pulled out their mass produced and probably stolen Schnee rifles. Two opened fire on me with full automatic fire on display.

I pulled Atreus off my shoulder and stuck him on the hood of Prominence acting as a bullet proof windshield. I could head some shots bouncing off him meaning I made the correct decision. I wish I had brought Cayde-6 so I could return fire but chose to take evasive manoeuvres instead by swivelling out of the gun fire.

Their bull head took a swift right turn which I followed as best I could but I couldn't make such a precise turn instantly. What I could do was use the modified suspension to drive up the side off a wall for a split second before touching back down.

Another faunus aboard the ship with a beaver tail shouted before pulling off his coat revealing a jacket riddled with grenades. He began pulling pins and taking potshots to see which could hit me. Prominence was too fast for them though.

The grenades either bounced and misses me entirely or a drove past them. The heat from them going off behind me certainly pointed out the lethality of the situation. Next the beaver guy pulled out one the size of a baseball and gave his best pitch.

So I yanked Atreus out of his comfy spot and back handed the explosive back at the Faunus. One explosion and three Wilhelm screams later the bulkhead was smoking. The dust didn't go off thankfully meaning it was kept in a reinforced container.

I still had one gunner, one unknown and a pilot to deal with. The explosion still damaged the interiors off the ship so it lowered down to the ground. I grinned and sped up approaching the ship. It spun around revealing that the pilot was losing control due to technical malfunctions.

I pulled the breaks on Prominence and was slingshotted onto the hood of the bullhead. The pilot was freaking out but I paid that no mind as I through Atreus at the left engine. The shield dug into the metal casing with ease but the force behind my throw and the possible loss of an engine caused the ship to lean to its side.

I jumped towards Atreus and gripped the handles before yanking him out. The engine was clearly detached after I did that and the plane began to spin counter clockwise whilst going downwards.

During the rollercoaster ride I tossed my shield at the other engine knocking it out of commission before it bounced back to my hand. Once it did I front flipped off the crash waiting to happen and super hero landed with the shield indenting into the ground for extra flare.

After the bullhead touched down roughly I walked up towards the cockpit. The door of the exit was slammed shut so I had no entry point. I walked up to where the pilot was sitting before tapping on the glass of the window, my casual knock caused the glass to splinter and fall down at the same speed as someone rolling the window down.

I turned around and said with a smug grin "License and registration?" Their reply was to stick an uzi in my face. I pushed the gun away and snapped the forearm of whoever thought it would be a smart idea to try and shoot someone who took out an aircraft with nothing but a shield.

I then walked back towards the exit of the plane to see if I could force my way in. Turns out there was no need as a red blade pierced through the metal hull of the ship and carved a new exit for whoever was inside.

The metal debris was then blasted outwards towards me. I batted it aside and watched as Adam Taurus walked out of the ship while bleeding from his head. Seems that he had a bumpy landing "did your pilot not tell you to fasten your seatbelts?" I asked before he performed a quick draw at me.

I blocked the slash with ease surprising him as he didn't slice through Atreus even though his semblance was charged. "What's with you Faunus always attacking after I crack a joke. It's not like I cracked a whip?"

He snarled at my reference to slavery and swung his sword and sheathe dual wielding them. I smashed Atreus onto the weapons blocking their attack path before trying to swipe his legs with my own. He chose to jump so I drove my fist into his abdomen. I wasn't the only one who knew how to block though as my fist smashed onto the blade of his weapon.

He was sent back into the wall of the bullhead while I got a nice cut over my right knuckles. I spun and hurled Atreus at his head so he leaned down before screaming. He didn't avoid all of my weapon as one of his treasured horns got cut off.

I was about to rush him before a hammer smashed into my chest. The last faunus shooter had gotten back to his feet from the crash and sneak attacked me. As I got to my feet he tossed out a flash grenade and one of the beavers bombs. My eyes widened before I rushed towards Atreus and gripping him before jumping atop the explosive grenade.

The flash-bang went off blinding me while I covered the explosive with my shield. It went off and and sent me flying into some poor saps car. As I groaned and got to my feet I sighed as I saw a manhole cover moved away and no sign of the two Faunus. The pilot was still inside crying about his broken arm and the sounds of sirens were approaching.

I groaned and clicked a tiny button inside my pocket before I heard the revving of a bike engine. I looked and saw Prominence arriving in front of me. Adding an auto recall feature was so handy~. I straddled my baby and took off before the cops arrived conveniently missing the sounds of *ssssssiiiiiippppp*. Atop the roof nearest the crash a man with wild green hair and large spectacles was slurping down coffee from his mug.

"It looks like it will be an interesting year at beacon. Marvellous! I can't wait to ask that young man about the properties of his shield and the functions he added to his bike and..." the rant of the professor "DOCTOR!!!" Doctor Oobleck continued as he hopped down to explain the situation to the police whilst contacting Ozpin on his scroll about another robbery thwarted by a student. Kids these days~ stopping gangs and hunting down monsters for fun! Back in his day going fishing would have been the height of dangerous.
