Character: Young Xiao Long (Yang Xiao Long)

- ... You're still a teenager, young.
I think that since I am in this room, you have the right to your own voice. In addition, I have lived long enough to be considered an adult.
Adult or not, you've got a lot to learn before you're ready for the real world.
- Oh, my goodness! You have fathers that are always harvested the same condescending things?
- Yes! But we use them only when you need it!
- Oh really?
Actually, more like! If you really think I'm ready again to go into battle - huh, in that case, it seems that with the hand you've lost a bit of "gray matter".
- Well, you moron! Ha ha ha!

- Ruby?
I'm glad to see you're okay!..
- I'm not okay. They are no more... penny... Pyrrha...
- And Weiss and Blake?
- Weiss took her father.
What? Are you talking about?
- No one outside of vail doesn't know what happened to the school. Before the tower fell, the last thing everyone saw Kaka robots Atlas fired on a defenseless people until the Grimm attacked the city. All scared. Nobody knows now who to trust. So my father Weiss and picked her up in satin, where she, in his opinion, would be safe.
And Blake?
- Ran away. San saw her. Once we got to town, she immediately ran away.
- But... why?
I do not know. And I don't care.
- Must be a reason for all of this...
- It is not! Sometimes bad things just happen, ruby.
And what do we do now?
- Do what you want. I'm staying here.
Yang...
Just leave me alone.
I love you, SIS.

I'm sorry, but you left us no choice.
I swear, he attacked me!
- Video footage and millions of witnesses saying the opposite.
Yang would never do!
You all seem like decent students, even the teaching staff Beacon is ready for you to bet. This is in normal conditions. But I want to believe that what happened is nothing more than the effects of adrenaline under stress. When they go into battle, you can not blindly rely on their own judgment, because sometimes in those moments you see what is actually there. This happens even after the battle.
But I couldn't...
- Enough! The bitter truth is that, regardless of whether it was intention or accident, it doesn't matter. The world saw how you hit surrendered enemy have already made their own conclusions. Now my duty is only to inform you: you're disqualified.

- Better luck next time.
- There will be a next time, Blondie.

- Who are you?
Yang... you and I have something to discuss.

- I'm not like ruby, she always wanted to be a huntress. Even as a little girl, she always said that I wanted to be like the heroes of those books: to help people, to save the situation - and take nothing in return. Even when she couldn't fight, she always knew what he wanted. Because she trained hard to be where she is now.
- Well, she's still a child.
- A couple of years younger than you.
- Well, we're all children. Or, at least, they were. I mean, look where we brought it! In the middle of the hot spot, armed to the teeth...
- The life we chose for ourselves.
Is not life, and work. Yes, we've all had those romantic fantasies of life as hunters. But we are working to protect people. And whatever we wanted - all in the second turn.

Blake, are you awake?
Yes.
- Why do you think he [Ublic] asked us about what it means to be a tracker? I mean, what's he mean by that?
Maybe he was just curious?
- You think?
- Nope.
- Weiss, are you awake?
- Of course not! You're both so noisy!
- So you...
- You know... When I said I wanted to defend my family's name, that's what I meant. But it's not what you think. I'm not stupid. I realize that my father did with P. K. W.. Since he took the helm, our business has evolved to bypass morality.
And that's an understatement.
- That's why I want to do the right thing! I would go to work in the Atlas - nothing would have changed. Not my father founded our dynasty, but I won't let him break it.
Well, I have spent my entire life fighting for what he thought was right. I had a partner named Adam. In fact, he was more than a partner. He always assured me that what we are doing for the world. Of course. his vision of a perfect future turned out to be not ideal for everyone. I entered the Academy because hunters and hunters are the most noble warriors in the world. Always fighting for good. But I never would have thought so in the past. When I tried to escape I... How can I atone for so many years of hatred?
- I think once you find out. You're not one of those who succumb to the difficulties, Blake.
- But I am! I do it all the time! When you realized that I was fawn, I didn't know what to do. And I ran away. When I realized that my partner was a monster in the shower, I ran. Even my expression - I was born with the ability to write is itself a shadow: an empty copy that takes the hit, while I slip away... At least you both have something that keeps you afloat.
- I always go with the flow. And that's fine, you know? That is, I am. But how else am I supposed to stretch? I want to be a hunter, but not because it is comparable to heroism. Because I want adventure. I want a life where I don't know what will give me the following day. And it would be great. But the life of a hunter is just that and features.

- I can't believe we haven't found anything!
- We have always been in the right place at the right time. Looks like we used up our limit of luck.
Is not what I wanted to say...
What?
- Earlier, about heritage. Here's the other thing.
- Yes, I... I mean, I don't know. I know what I want to do, but I thought I'd go step by step...
- Well, it doesn't really matter if we know why we're here.

- Tell me Yang, why did you choose this job?
- Well, to fight monsters and save...
- No, no, no! Not WHAT you do, and WHY? Honestly - why do you want to become a hunter?
- Honestly, Yes? I love the thrill. I want to travel the world and get into crazy adventures. And if we help people in the process, so much the better! Everybody wins, something like that.
- I understand that.

- You know, Doc, we all wouldn't mind to see a professional hunter in. At least there, in battle or fire support?
I'm already in business - are looking for signs of anything abnormal among the ruins of this once beautiful city. Not every mission is full of horror and heroism, girls - sometimes it's just an exaggerated form of the massacre, if you so wish. Just remember that the job you are subscribed. I hope you realize this.
Yes. Of course...

Yang, if you want to tell me to stop, it is better not to start.
I don't want you to stop. Only slow down.
- Time for us - a luxury to him to squander.
- Yes, not a luxury. But the need...
- The detention Torcivia - that's a real necessity!
And we are breathing down his back. But you first sit down and listen to what I wanted to tell you.
- Well?
We with ruby rose Patch - an island near the coast of vail. Our parents were hunters. Dad taught at Signal, and the mom was taking orders throughout the Kingdom. Her name was summer rose. And she was super-mom: kill monsters, baking cookies... But one day she never returned from a mission. We had tight. Ruby was upset, but I think she was too young to understand what had really happened. Dad lowered his hands. It took little time before I realized why: summer was not the first love he lost - only the second. The first was my mother. He didn't tell me anything, but I later learned that they were in the same team - summer, dad, my mom and uncle crow. She left us with my dad once I was born. More nobody's seen her.
- Why did she leave you?
"Why..." the question I still have not found the answer. It was all I could think of. I have long collected information about her from everywhere. Once I found something. Thought is the key to answering these questions. Thought it would help to find my mother. I waited until dad leaves on business, put ruby in the truck and dragged him along. We walked for hours. Feet calluses and scratches, fatigue was taking its toll, but I didn't want to stop. I was barely keeping on his feet, but that didn't bother me - we got. And then I saw them [Grimm]... Burning red eyes looked at us - a tired sleeping baby and her stupid older sister, who did not have the strength to call for help. I literally filed the both of us to them on a silver platter. But, fortunately for us, nearby was our uncle crow... that night both of us almost killed my stubbornness.
Yang, I'm sorry... I know what you mean, but in my case it's not the same! I'm not a child and not looking for answers, and...
I said I didn't want to stop you. I can't. To this day, I want to know why my mother left us. But after what happened I'm not giving this purpose to control me. We are looking for the answers that we need, Blake. But if we lose ourselves in the process, are they worth it?
- You don't understand! Only I can do it!
No, you don't understand! If Roman Torsvik will walk through that door, what will you do?
- Catch him!
- No, you lose.
- I can stop him.
- Even you I can't stop!... I'm not asking you to stop. But, please... take a break. If not for yourself then for those whom you care about.

- Ya Not. Know.
- I mean, how can YOU not know?!
- I haven't talked to him. Didn't even see him after that night, when you're here all smashed. He made an advance - I gave him my people. And none of them returned.
- So where did they go?
- What a stupid question?! They never came back!.. By the way, who is this guy [Neptune]?
Don't worry about it. Worry about me if I don't find what you want!
- I already told you everything! Torchic took my children... Although, I don't think they were useful to him.

- Guess who's back!
- Blondie?! Why are you here?
- You still owe me a drink.

- Do you really care if we find her [Blake] or not?
- Of course she is! Just for you I'm afraid of what she'll say when we find her. In the end, she wouldn't have escaped if she was in truth innocent.
