A/N: So since this story has 500+ views, this is going to be a combined chapter because I really don't think I will be able to make a 500 view chapter. So thank you all for the views and let' see if we can get to 1k! If we do, I'll make a 1k view chapter special. Thanks guys!!

It's been at least three years since the Grimm had breached the inner city of Vale. It was a bit unusual to see Grimm this close to the inner most city: Atlas. Usually Vacuo and Mistral get attacked first then Vale. But they've been dealing with Grimm ever since the Grimm Dragon appeared and dropped in Grimm all over Vacuo and Mistral. Because of the sudden lose of control of them, they've found their way to the second most inner city. And it was Vale, Vacuo, and Mistral's job to keep Atlas safe.

"Of course we have to do all the hard work while the higher ups get to sit on their asses everyday. Living in luxury," I sneered.

"Think of this, Yang, you're helping out humanity to get rid of the Grimm," Ruby said.

"I know, but joining the Scouts was our own choice. They were born into all of that. Meaning the ones who were born in Vale, Vacuo, and Mistral have to help protect Atlas. Why doesn't Vacuo and Mistral protect Vale and Atlas? Since we're the most inner cities here?"

"I don't know. We'd have to ask the higher ups."

"I don't feel comfortable doing that."

"Me neither," Ruby said.

"Come on. We have training today."

Ruby and I walked out of our bunk and towards the training grounds. We had another month of training before we fully joined the Scouts. Or the Garrison or Military Police. Ruby and I are going to the Scouts, to not help ourselves, but help others who are unable to help. I wasn't paying attention and ran into someone.

"Watch it!"

"Sorry."

The girl turned around and Ruby and I almost dropped to the ground. An Atlas person? Here? Training to either join the Scouts, Garrison, or Military Police. Right about now she would be waking up and enjoying a planned breakfast with her family and friends. Not having to worry about the Grimm attacking.

"I'm sorry to ask, but why is an Atlas personnel here to train to give their life up?" I asked.

"I want to help others. I don't want to sit around just waiting for the Grimm to come. I want to be out there, helping people."

"That's very ambitious, for an Atlas person," came a voice behind us.

It was Blake! Blake and I had became friends on the first day of training camp.

"I have you know, that not every person in Atlas is stuck up."

"You're just the one who doesn't fit that category of people," Blake said.

"So, what's your name?" Ruby asked.

"Weiss Schnee."

"Weiss Schnee? As in the Schnee who makes the 3D maneuver gear?" I asked.

"And the blades. Each piece of equipment is carefully made out of the finest materials."

"Yeah we know how they're made. You don't have to bore us to death," I said.

"I'm just trying to be helpful."

"You can try to be helpful by letting us get to the training session. Commander Keith will not be happy if either one of us are late. Our training ends in a month so he's going to be more strict."

"He's already too strict," Weiss said.

"He's a military instructor. What do you expect? For him to be all happy and soft?" Blake asked.
