[2 years later]
It is the day before Yang and Topaz will start at Beacon. Topaz decided to walk around town to try and burn off the extra excitement he has. Beacon, a school know to teach students to become some of the best huntsman and huntresses. The stories that Tai and Summer would tell them did nothing to reduce the excitement. Walking down the street, Topaz hears laughter coming from the alley, and not the good kind. Making his way into the alley, Topaz puts his hand into his pocket and grabs his ax.
????: "What are you going to do about it cutie. Seeing that you can't speak, much less scream, there isn't anyone coming to save you."
Topaz walks into a clearing and sees three men surrounding a poor girl. Based on how they are dressed, and the weapons visible on their hips/backs, they are apparently huntsman, or were at some point. The poor girl the men were antagonizing caught Topaz's eyes. She had hair that was both brown and pink, divided clearly down the center of her head. She wore a white jacket with a pink collar and sleeve-ends. She had on black and white boots that went up to just below her knees and black pants completed her ensemble. At the girls' feet lies a broken umbrella, and based on the slight glimmer Topaz sees, he assumes it was her weapon. Topaz was furious when he saw two of the men grabbing and holding her arms while the third proceeded to grope her thighs and chest. He takes a deep breath and steps into the open, showing himself to the thugs.
Topaz: "Let her go. Or I will make you."
At his comment, the girl looks at him with tears in her eyes, and two of the thugs turn to face him while the third restrains the girl. The first two men drew their weapons and laughed at the child standing before them.
Thug 1: "Go home to mommy kid."
Thug 2: "Or stay, and be forgotten by the world."
Topaz: "Honestly, I'm less scared of you three than I am of my sister when her hair is messed with."
Enraged by his comment, the two thugs rush to Topaz, who just stands there with his hands in his pockets. Reaching him first, Thug 1 swings his sword down towards Topaz's throat, only for it to bounce off without leaving even a scratch. Thug 2 thrusts his spear forwards hoping to impale Topaz through the gut, only to watch in horror as his spear shatters into splinters.
Thug 1: "Bullshit! There's no way my sword bounced off."
Thug 2: "M-My spear. My precious spear, h-how is that possible?"
Topaz takes a step forward and chuckles at how pathetic the two thugs look now. Seeing his friends in trouble the third thug lets go of the girl who stands and watches Topaz with curious eyes. Thug 3 pulls out his weapon, a crossbow with a blade sticking out of the front, and first a bolt at Topaz. As soon as Topaz saw the thug draw his weapon, he enhanced his vision, and the moment the bolt was fired towards him, he caught it in front of his face, and gave the thug a menacing smile before dropping the bolt. Step by step Topaz made his way to the three thugs who are now lying on the ground, frozen in fear. Walking right up to the men, Topaz bends over and simply mutters "Boo", causing all three men to faint. Turning to the girl, Topaz holds out his hand. It was at this moment he noticed her two colored eyes, one pink on the other brown, matching her hair.
Topaz: "Hey, its ok. They can't hurt you any longer."
The girl walks up to Topaz, takes his hand and puts a small note into his hand.
{Thank you for rescuing me from those thugs. My name is Neo Politan and I'm mute, so don't expect a thank you from me. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get to my partner before he does something stupid.}
Looking up from the note, Topaz can see that Neo is nowhere to be found. Frowning at her causal dismissal of what he had done, Topaz thinks about trying to find her, but that thought quickly disappears when he hears a familiar gunshot and explosions. He rushes to where he heard the fighting. Standing on top of a building he sees Ruby being dragged by a blonde woman off in the distance. On the horizon, Topaz can see a small airship slightly smoking, fleeing from the scene. Following after the two, Topaz slowly closes the distance, but as soon as he is within range where he could call out, the two enter a building. Jumping down in front of the building, Topaz notices that it is a Police Station. He enters the station and prepares to follow after the two.
????: "Hey kid, you can't go back there."
Turning to see who is speaking to him, Topaz sees an officer sitting behind the front desk looking at him. On his chest, he sees a nametag, on the nametag sits the name John.
Topaz: "But my sister was taken here by a woman with blonde hair."
Officer John: "Blonde woman? Do you mean Ms. Goodwitch? Well, she said that the girl was going to be questioned for being involved in a dust shop robbery earlier."
Topaz: "Dust Shop Robbery?! There's no way she would do something like that, she's too nice to even think of robbing someone."
Officer John: "Oh, she didn't rob the shop. She was there when it happened by the sound of it."
Topaz: "Ah, and knowing her she tried to stop them."
Officer John: "Right on the money. You aren't allowed to go back there, but feel free to sit and wait for your sister here."
Topaz is forced to wait for almost 30 minutes before Ruby is guided out by the blonde woman and a man he recognizes as Professor Ozpin.
Topaz: "Ruby! Are you ok?"
Ruby: "Topaz, what are you doing here?"
Topaz: "I heard some gunshots and explosions when I was out walking around, and when I got to where I heard them, I saw you being dragged by that lady over there."
Topaz sees Professor Ozpin make his way over to him, and extends his hand. Topaz takes his hand and gives him a firm handshake.
Ozpin: "Young Mr. Topaz. It's a pleasure to officially meet you. Ms. Rose here was merely being questioned so we could see if we could find any information on the robbery that had occurred this evening. And upon seeing just how talented she is, I have decided to bring her up to Beacon a few years early so she can put her talent to good use."
Widening his eyes in surprise, Topaz turns to Ruby to see her with a huge smile, nodding her head quickly. Suddenly the doors to the police station are thrown open, and two familiar people rush into the station.
Tai: "RUBY ROSE WHAT IS THIS WE HEARD OF YOU STOPPING A ROBBERY. YOU ARE IN TROUBLE YOUNG LADY!"
Summer: "Tai be quiet, Ruby is old enough to take care of herself."
Tai: "But..."
Summer: "No buts."
Tai: "Fine."
Ozpin: "Summer and Tai, it's so good to see you two again. I will be the first to admit that I was hesitant to allow you to pull out of your missions for me Summer, but looking at the two before me, I can say that I am happy you did. These two both show exemplary mindsets of putting others before themselves, and based on what I saw from Mr. Rose this evening, and the videos sent along with Topaz's transcript, they are also excellent fighters."
Summer and Tai smile at the praise being given to their children. Summer chuckles to herself thinking that Ozpin hasn't really seen anything yet when it comes to the two. Ruby has been trained by her and has minor control over the power of her eyes, while Topaz is just Topaz. A powerful semblance combined with skin harder than any metal, while also being trained by Qrow, makes him incredibly powerful.
Summer: "Tia and I couldn't be prouder of them, and their sister Yang. All three of them will be excellent huntsman and huntresses when they get older."
Ozpin: "I would like to push Ms. Rose forward in her studies and have her start at Beacon with Topaz and Ms. Xia Long."
Summer and Tai: "WHAT!"
Topaz: "I think she should too. She's smart, charismatic and let's be honest, a better fighter than all of her class combined. She's not being pushed to her full extent there anymore. No offense Tai."
Tai: "None taken Topaz, I hate to admit it but you are right. My little flower is getting too large for the pot she's in."
After the adults wrapped up their conversation, Topaz and Ruby followed Tai and Summer home. Ruby had to pack for the unexpected venture, and Topaz wanted to make sure he had everything he will need. Getting back home and finishing up everything he needed to do. Topaz made his way to his bed, and quickly found himself falling asleep.
