From the top of the mountain, the sun can be seen rising in the distance, as Kyra wraps her tail around her stomach, hiding it beneath her black hoodie and with a final bit of stretching she turns towards vale.
"Time to go!" Kyra shouts, jumping up with excitement, only to hear rustling coming from the trees behind her.
Turning around, she comes face to face with a giant, Nevermore preening its black feathers.
Her worry quickly disappears as she’s struck with a realization, "I could use a ride!" She shouts with a hearty smile, Dodging the Grimm's attack before hopping onto its back, grabbing the feathers on its head and forcing it to go towards the city by kicking its head.

'Huh? Fallout didn't have a riding skill.'
----------------------------------------
About 30 minutes later, Kyra looks down off the neck of the Nevermore and can see the city defenses below, and a group of huntsmen on the ground looking up. She idly noticed how small they looked from a couple hundred ft in the air.
"Uhh, I should probably land this thing..." Forcing its head down with a stomp, she sends it into a dive towards the city.
The huntsmen quickly move from the location they were standing in, Kyra jumping off of it seconds before the giant bird *cough* Nevermore hits the ground, creating a crater with the Nevermore breaking up into a million black particles afterwards, as she lands a perfect somersault right in front of the huntsmen with her back turned to them.
"Wow, that looks so cool!, I wasn't really paying attention to what the Beowolf did after I decapitated it." Kyra says out loud while all the huntsmen, which were prepared to kill a Nevermore, stare at her dumbfounded.
Turning on her heels, she stares at the group of huntsmen, "Uhh... it's not what it looks like." Kyra says, waving her hands in front of her, a girl that is 5 foot 2, has black hair with dirty blond tips, and golden eyes, which just crashed a Nevermore directly into Vale.

'Wow, that's a lot of XP'
Looking at the hunters, she sees the drunkard Qrow, and promptly sprints up to him, his weapon drawn, but to his side.
"Please teach me how to wield this!" She shouts, Blue Rose appears in her hands, mechashifting into its scythe form, and slamming the point of the blade into the concrete, a spiderweb of cracks spreading across the pavement, “Opps” kyra says before putting away her blue rose noticing the damage.
"Another Ruby..." he mutters, seeing how similar the girl in front of him is to his niece, before putting Harbinger on his back and letting loose a heavy sigh, he fished his flask out from behind him and took a sip.
"Sure, I could probably get you enrolled at signal academy." Qrow says after a moment of thought.
"That's great and all, but where are your parents?" Glynda Goodwitch asks, interrupting the two of them.

"Probably dead." Kyra answers in a near instant, as her eyes are locked on Qrow's scythe, nearly salivating at the craftsmanship of his weapon, her hands slightly grabbing the air as she inched forwards.
"I will take care of her... I can talk to Tai" Qrow says, shaking his head as he turns to Glynda.
"How old are you?" Glynda asks, concern clear on her face for what is obviously a young girl who came to vale riding on the back of a Nevermore.
"probably 14." She put her finger on her lips and taped it a bit with a head tilt before she responded, not actually knowing the answer.
"Same age as Ruby, then, you two will get along just fine. Come with me." Qrow says, leading our main character into the city.
----------------------------------------
Some random office.
"Mr Qrow? Hello?" Kyra says having been left in a questioning room at the station, her head spinning this way and that as she looks around
Suddenly Ozpin walks in, starting off with a question, “Hello miss…?” He asked with a raised brow and took a sip from his cup.
"Kyra." Kyra replies, leaning over the table and her arm stretching out for a handshake.
Ozpin put a plate of cookies down before taking her hand and shaking it lightly, "Well miss Kyra, want to tell me how you rode a Nevermore?" Ozpin asks, a little intrigued at the strange girl before him.
"Well, you see,” Ozpin quickly takes another sip. “I was on top of a mountain in the mountain range over there." She says, pointing in the wrong direction. “It was early in the morning, and I had just woken up to hear a rustling noise, so I turned around and saw a landed Nevermore right next to me.” She gestured animatedly as she spoke, Ozpin nodding along to her story and took note of her eye color. “And I kinda didn't want to run the rest of the way to Vale after climbing that mountain, and going through the forest on the other side was difficult; So I climbed onto its back and rode it like a horse, kinda. Wherever I forced its head with kicks, it went." Kyra says quickly, eating the cookies in front of her.
"Interesting, you also have golden eyes, I have only seen purely golden eyes on two other 'people'" Ozpin said suavely, he put his cup down and locked his finger together while putting his chin on them; He gave her eyes a hard stare…
'Wut...' Kyra's eyes went wide, her expression gave her all away with the surprise she showed.
"You’re sure they’re gold and not some amber?" She asked nervously, rubbing the back of her neck.
"How do you not know your own eye color? Yes, purely golden eyes." Ozpin replies with a raised brow; Kyra holds her hand in front of her, concentrating on her Ki. It's a pinkish color... god ki?
(A/n: I googled it and Google said god ki was pink... I'm kinda color blind.)
"Two brothers, one younger, one older?" Kyra asks, her eyes went wider and her heartbeat quickened.
"Why, yes." Ozpin replies calmly, with the same suave manner he usually projects, but internally his mind is a mess.
"I appear to be of the same race, I'm just really young, with little to no control over my powers. I haven't even awakened my aura yet." Kyra says, hoping Ozpin could help.
"You wanted to train under Qrow for a year, right?" Ozpin asked, his thoughts racing a mile a minute as he thought of how he could keep an eye on her through Qrow.
"If I could then join beacon after a year, that would be great." Kyra says, focusing on her Ki as she calms down.
"Qrow.” Ozpin grabbed Qrow’s attention with a hand on his shoulder, “She passes." He said, before quickly leaving to process what he just came across. “Thanks Oz.” Qrow said before the man could fully leave, only giving him a small head nod.
