Y/N's pov

I walked into the house we were given and saw the others, except Qrow who wasn't there, looking at me

Me: What?

Jaune: We're have you been?

Me: Well... i got a sword

Nora: I don't see anything

Taking out my newly modified gun Nora frowned seeing that it looked the same, pressing a button on it, it straightened upwards.

A slot opened and a strip of metal came out before the hard light dust activated. Pulling the trigger it formed into a long blade making Ruby look at it in awe

Nora: THAT'S SO COOL!

Me: Yeah, those blacksmiths know what they're doing

And those people don't know what happened to their wallets... Nora came over and tried to touch it until there was a knock at the door.

Turning it back to normal, which made Nora frown i went over and put it in it's holster. Opening the door i saw... a kid, he had tanned skin and short black hair

Me:... I'm not interested in any cookies, sorry

?: A-Actually, i need to talk to a... Ruby Rose

Taking out my gun i pointed it at his head making him jump and look at me in fear, A moment later Qrow came out and wrapped an arm around him

Qrow: I found him!

He stumbled inside as i sighed and holstered my gun once again

?: I think her uncle could use some help

Qrow fell onto a sofa as i watched him before pinching the bridge of my nose

Qrow: I found him

Me: You can't kidnap kids and make them say things Qrow

Ruby: What is going on out there!?

Ruby stomped out from her room and into the living room as i turned my attention to her

Ruby: Can't a girl read her comics in peace!?

Qrow laughed for a bit before burping... well at least he's drunk here and not elsewhere

Ruby: Qrow, did you get drunk again?

Qrow: Maybe...?

?: Oh. You... have silver eyes

Me: Okay, who the hell are you?

?: Uh... Well... My name is Oscar Pine.

Qrow: Wait for it...

Looking to Qrow confused he just chuckled drunkenly... I'm gonna throw a bucket of water on him.

Oscar: But you probably know me as... as...

Me: Get to the point!

He jumped and quickly answered

Oscar: P-Professor Ozpin!

Timeskip

Oscar was sat on an arm chair. with a cane beside him as RNJR surrounded him, i was sat on a sofa while burying my face in one of my hands.

Oscar: It is very weird, yes

Qrow: Okay, okay. Let's all just take a second and remember that this is very overwhelming for everyone

He walked into the room with a mug of coffee and wet hair... heh, serves him right.

The others hopped back, chuckling nervously as i moved my hand and looked to Oscar.

Oscar: Thanks...

Qrow came over and sat down beside me as Nora and Ruby sat down on the adjacent sofa.

Ruby and Oscar looked to eachother and she giggled making him blush amd quickly look away

Oscar: Ah, sorry! It's just that i've never met Huntsman and Huntresses before.

Ruby: Well, uh... we've never met a person with two souls, so, first times all around

Me: And i've never met someone who's taken so long to get to the point

Oscar: Oh, right.

He closed his eyes as his head began lowering before he flashed green for a brief moment. Opening his eyes again they were a differnet colour

Oscar?: It is so very good to see you again, students.

His voice was a mix of two, the other soundjng like... Ozpin. Shooting up from my seat i looked to him in shockas he turned to me.

Ozpin: Sorry, i know this must be confusing to you all. And i must ask you to leave, you aren't-

Me: I was a student...

Taking off the bandages on my face i revealed my burned face making his expression drop

Ozpin: Mr L/N... I-

Holding my hand up he stopped before i began wrapping myself. When i finished i let out a sigh and looked at him.

Me: You were wrong Ozpin... I'm still able to be a Huntsman

Ozpin: I'm sorry for that... if i could take back my decision i would but what's done is done.

Ruby: Actually... when we spoke to professor Lionheart the other day, he said he'd be happy to have you Y/N

Me:... Keep talking, Ozpin

I sat back down leaned on my arm, covering my face with it for a moment before looking back to up.

Ozpin: Though I may be speaking, Oscar is still present, mentally. He's mearly handed over the control, so to speak. I'm afraid this must all be very perplexing

Nora: And alarming

Me: And bizarre

Nora: That too, also really kind of hard to believe overall!

He chuckled before breathing out and smiling

Ozpin: It's good to see you children still have your sense of humour. I know you've all been through tremendous hardships already, some more then others, i'm sorry...

Ruby: I mean, it's not your fault.

Ozpin: It's all my fault. I told you once i made more mistakes then any man, woman, and child on this planet, and I wasn't exaggerating. I'm... cursed. For thousands of years, I've walked the surface of Remnant, living, dying, and reincarnating in the body of a like-minded soul. The professor Ozpin you all met was not my firsy form, and clearly wasn't my last. It's... an extraordinary strenous process on everyone involved.

Me: Who did it?

He looked to me confused as i moved my arm off the arm rest and onto my lap.

Me: Who cursed you?

Ozpin:... The gods. They cursed to me to be reborn over and over due to a fatal mistake i made in the past... i failed to stop Salem

Me: So it is your fault. That all this happened, that i was made into this, that Beacon fell, that countless people died and will continue to die

Ozpin: But we can stop her now

Me: How?

Ozpin: We start by ensuring the safety of the relic of knowledge
