    Summary

    If it weren't for her grandfather, Weiss would have lost her wings at birth. If it weren't for her mother, she would have lost them as a toddler, when she was still too young to remember them. If it weren't for her sister, she would have lost them as a child, the moment she was old enough to be afraid of them.

    Weiss arrives at Beacon still counting down the days to her eighteenth birthday, when she will finally get rid of them for good. It's the obvious next step. Until, that is, her team does what they do best, and makes everything a whole lot more complicated.

    Summary

    Yang falls into the void. Then Ruby. Then Blake. Fighting alone against Cinder, the last living member of Team RWBY puts every ounce of Dust and Aura she has into a Time Dilation glyph. But instead of going out in a blaze of glory like she expects, Weiss finds herself on the airship to Beacon, back at the start of everything.

    This is a story told from the perspective of everyone else, as they meet Weiss Schnee for the second first time. Weiss's original world and all her old relationships are gone, washed away like footprints on the shore. But that doesn't mean she can't retrace them.

    When you're supposed to be a weapon, how do you find peace?

    In Atlas, a lost silver-eyed girl is found hidden away like a buried treasure, her origins a mystery. She grows up in secrecy, training to be the perfect warrior and believing her destiny is to save the world.

    (The second child of the Rose-Xiao Long family was killed in a tragic Grimm attack, and there was nothing left of the infant to bury.)

    In Vale, a girl made of metal, circuits, and a soul that burns bright wakes up with no memory. As she learns to protect herself and so many others, she watches the stars and wonders what she was built for.

    (Dr. Polendina's lifelong project was destroyed in an unfortunate incident, reduced to a few unidentifiable scraps.)

    Neither Ruby nor Penny know what secrets they hold. But when their lives collide, together they will discover a future of unlimited possibility and love. The world will never be the same.

    Summary

    When Ranma Saotome was three, he picked up an interest in art, and asked his mother and father for a box of crayons. Instead, his father gave him a gi and promised to make him strong. When Ranma Saotome was five, he asked his mother to teach him how to cook. Instead, she sent him to go practice kata with his father. When Ranma Saotome was seven, he tore a hole in his gi, and asked his mother to teach him how to fix it. Instead, she told him to put on a new gi while she fixed his ruined one.

    All his life, Ranma had been forced into a box by his parents, and all his life, he’d sought more than their dreams for him. But his own dreams withered with age, and by sixteen, he would tell anyone who asked that he was going to be the greatest martial artist of all time, a man among men.

    Until one fateful day, when a training accident left him with a unique predicament, and he found himself questioning everything about who he was and who he was supposed to be. Now all he has to do is navigate telling one little lie after another and hope the snowball of deceit and guilt doesn’t crush him entirely.
