What happens when... someone disappears?

[Private to Yang]

...

Can we talk?

[She felt a bit guilty for asking to see them, especially seeing the other's reaction to it. But seeing the ears, she couldn't help smiling just a bit.]

They're cute...

[Maybe not the best thing to say...but she means it.]

That's what Ruby said, too.

[A ghosting smile and then she sighed lightly, looking back.] They mark me as being a Faunus, back home... Faunus are people with different animal traits, and are looked down upon by humans.

[As she spoke, she began tying the bow back into place.]

The White Fang is the resistance group I spoke of. It's made up of Faunus that fight for better, proper treatment. It used to be peaceful... until a new leader rose up, and everything changed.

O-Oh...I see...

[That sounded so sad.]

Why...are the Faunus looked so down upon?

Racial tensions, for the most part. Humans once tried to restrict Faunus to a certain part of the world, and a war erupted when we tried to gain rights and freedom. Though Faunus can live wherever we want, we're unfortunately still discriminated against.

Most think of us as second-class citizens at best.

O-Oh...That's...that's terrible...

Yes, it is.

But that's why I left the more militaristic White Fang, and why I applied for Beacon Academy. So I could do some good in the world, and learn to fight the soulless monsters that populate it, rather than...

Fight each other.
