Past?!!!

"Wait, wait, wait for fucking moment!"

"YOU SWORE AGAIN!"

"You want to tell me that YOU and MY SISTER are in a relationship?!"

"Yes..."

"Well... Now I feel bad for you..."

"And why would that be?"

"Brat, don't tell me you don't know my sister, she is a lot of things, but an actor isn't in her repertoire, you must know what kind of person she is, or you are just blind."

"Blind, maybe in love."

"Woow, so cool!"

"That was cringe brat..."

"In that, I must agree with Qrow..."

"Dont care, if Ruby thinks its cool it is cool..."

"Wow you heard that dad, uncle Qrow?!"

"Yea we heard pipsquik, I hope you dont want to sdeuce my little niece, otherwise we two would have words."

"Make it three..."

"...Your synergy is so good that I must ask, arent you two by any chance married?"

"Puhh!"

"Gahhh!!!"

"Hm?"

"That was a low blow, brat!"

"I didn't need that vision..."

"What is happening?"

Aegis just smiled as two adult men both paled and gained a green hue as Ruby was just tilting her head in confusion from that play.

"Nothing Ruby, I and your dad and uncle just have an adult conversation."

"Arent, you just four years older than me?"

"Make it five, and yes, I know it sounds hypocritical."

"Meh, you are weird, but good weird, not like bad weird."

"Thank you, Ruby. You are too good weird..."

"Hehe, thanks!"

Ruby said with a cheerfulness that just made Aegis smile even more, Tai and Qrow, who silently watched their conversation, just shook their heads as they knew that Ruby has a gift for making even the coldest person's hearts melt...

"What is happening there, and who calls me little sister weird?!"

Said voice full of fake anger as Ruby's head whipped to the side in joy.

"YANG!"

There was a moment of silence as red missile thrashed with a newcomer who expertly caught her without falling down.

"Ruby!"

"Hehe, sorry..."

"Raven..."

"Tai... Brother..."

"Raven..."

"RUBY!"

"So you are mother new boy toy?"

"Boytoy? That's an interesting evaluation for someone who you just met."

"Arent you? I mean how young are you, isn't it like that always, older women taking young boys, don't you want someone on your age level, someone like me, after all from what I see im not so different from mother, just much younger."

Aegis looked at the blonde-haired girl he didn't even introduce himself and just sighted.

"Yang, can I call you that? Good, please put that act down..."

"W-what act? I mean it seriously..."

Yang whispered into Aegis's ear.

"Yang..."

There was silence between the two until they heard a voice.

"Hey? What's boy toy?"

"Ohh..."

"Well, time for me to go make a call."

"H-hey! Wait! Don't leave me?! YOU COWARD"

"Yang?"

"Ehehe, sorry Rubes, I-I NEED TO GO TO WC!"

"WAIT, DON'T RUN YANG!"

The two girls run from the kitchen as Aegis walked to the garden to sight in relief in successful retreat, and in the meantime, the three adults in the kitchen just looked at each other in disbelief at what they just witnessed...

"She is your daughter, no matter how absent you were in raising her..."

"Don't say..."

Raven said with a palm on her face as she saw how her daughter tried to measure what kind of person Aegis was be thinking that if she seduced him that she would prove her mother then Aegis isn't better than her dad Tai and probably thinking that Raven and Tai get together...

"Well, let speak, sister dearest..."

"And now I regret my decision..."

"Children, calm down."

"Shut up Tai."

"Be quiet Tai."

"Haaahh, where are you Summer, these two are just impossible when together..."

---------------------------

"So like this?"

"No, you need more, think about your happiest memory and try again."

Cinder said as she watched Harriet close her eyes and once again motion with her hand.

"Ha!"

There was silvery mist coming out of Harriet's hand as she gasped in surprise.

"Almost, but next time try to prolong it."

"Hey, didn't you say there is some way to go around it? I mean you said that wands should help."

"...Yes, I said that, but we don't have a wand or cant create one as even with my long experience, I didn't research into wand-making or the fact that it is better for you to go without a wand in the long term."

"Why is that?"

"Think of wand-like game cheat, if you were to in future play game without cheat yet until now you used it, wouldn't it by hard for you?"

"Hm, maybe? It sounds plausible but... Eh yea if you say so, so like this, I would be much better than I would be with a wand?"

"Yes, especially someone like you."

"Somone like me?"

"....Haaahh... Potter's, are ancient family, from the time where old magic was a thing, and as such you have it in your blood to tap into such old magic that works more on intent than on the system."

"System?"

"Yes, system, something that became common around 900 AC? In short, where the system magic most magical used in my time was easier and complex, the old magic was more of intent, both have bonuses and cons, but if you want to be truly good, you must know old magic as just old magic can help you grow."

"That's, I really don't know? It sounds complex and logical, but I really don't understand..."

Cinder just sighed and Harriet stuck her tongue.

"Look, it isn't something you can explain, you must feel it, and that's the reason I teach you how to feel it, how to connect to old magic."

"Ok ok, hey, another question?"

"Hah, what is it this time?"

"Hehe, well I really want to know, always when you speak about my previous family, the Potter's you sound angry, why it is that?"

"Haaaahhh, do you really want to know?"

"YES!"

"I too want to know."

"Same there."

"Me too! Me too!"

Cinder bemusedly looked at her new sisters who came just in time to hear Harriet's question and sighed as she gave up and chose to fill their curiosity.

"Well, it started the moment I met one very annoying brat named Grindelwald and his equally annoying friend Dumbledore or something like that, at that time, I had a terrible memory on names..."

And as such, Cinder started to tell the tale of her demise on Earth.
