You fooled me, but so did I…

Noor turn head to the unknown individual who stabs him in the back with a sword. It is the female Faunus that leads him here.

"~Surprise." She said taking out her sword from his back, Noor tried to turn around but she kicked him in his left ribs sending him crashing into a tree. His blood was dripping from his body and mouth as he looked up back at her while holding his wound. She smiled seeing the state he was in as she slowly approached him, and then she spoke.

"Wow I didn't think that actually would work." She said looking at the weird sword in her hand, then looked back at him. "I thought this job would be hard, but I guess I was worried for nothing. Although I'm a little disappointed that you actually didn't notice. That mysterious man really made it seem like you were something dangerous, honestly."

"Cough! Notice what?" Noor asked the Faunus.

"I wanted you to follow me, I wanted to use this moment to let your guard down so I could get a direct hit on you, thanks to the white fang and Adam I was able to finish the job. Don't you see? You were my prey from the very beginning, a big stupid human prey, and now thanks to you I don't have to worry about my next lunch for a couple of months with the reward I'm going to get by this mysterious man. Hahahahaha! ~Ooooooo Ohohohohohohohohoh! Hahahahahahahahahaha…" The Faunus laughed loud and proud.

Noor did say anything and looked at her with a straight face before asking her something.

"I've been fooled huh? If I may ask, you said you got that sword by a mysterious individual right? What did he promise you for you to come after me.?" He asked her.

"~Oh you want to know about my benefactor even though you're about to die? Very well then I guess I at least tell you that. I don't especially know what he looks like since he had mysterious clothing and a mask, but he gave me info about you and your location in vale. For the past seven months and three days I've been waiting to find you and kill you, but I'd never known you were here of all places. When I saw you here I was thrilled! I wanted to wait after the raid to kill your but since I noticed you was following me I decided to use the white fangs as a decoy, and it work surprisingly thanks to Adam being too stubborn for his own good, and of course you letting your guard down because you thought you was invincible and now look at you. On the brink of death."

Noor didn't say anything but just listened to the girl.

"But you know it's funny, I know what you are," he told me. You are a human who is slowly becoming a god. Yet you don't seem like anything special, I wonder if it was a mistake…but oh well got the job done!" She said in a cheerful tone. Noor looks at her, narrowing his eyes when she mentions a word that seems to keep hunting him every time he meets someone that's not from this world. Not to mention she basically knew we're he got his powers, this wasn't a good thing.

"You all keep saying I'm some kind of god, yet none of you are explaining what you mean by that?" Noor asked.

"~Ah? You don't know? I guess that lazy god didn't tell you. You see the REAL reason why that god chose you as his next successor as the next new god, that's why your power and abilities are growing as time goes on. But I bet you didn't notice that either didn't you?" She said leaving the boy surprised. Noor then asked her a question.

"So you know what I am huh? But you're a Faunus. But I want to know that guy promise you? Money? Power? Seems worth it for you to come after me, despite knowing what I am." Noor said.

"Humph! You wouldn't understand the kind of life I had to go through, being discriminated against. But not anymore, because I'm the one who gets the last laugh." She said with a sinister smile.

Noor didn't say anything for a moment, all he could do was just sigh.

"I see. Well it's a shame honestly. I'm sorry about the life you had to go through. I really am…

[But I'm also sorry about this…"]

The girl Faunus widened her eyes and turned her attention toward the right and saw another Noor sitting on the tree smiling at her.

"What!? There's two of you!?" said the Faunus. Noor looked at her confused, but still kept his smile on his face.

"What are you talking about? There's only one of us." Said both Noor's. The girl turned her eyes back at the one she stabbed and realized the one she attacked started to fade away in the air. When she saw this she slowly widened her eyes in horror and looked back at Noor that was on the tree.

She had that look on her face, because she knew she fucked up. She realized the one she stabbed was a decoy, the real one was right in front of her eyes.

"~Awww What's wrong? You were happy just a second ago, now that look on your face says something else." Said Noor tilting his head to the left. The girl Faunus was now terrified, most of the Faunus wouldn't be able to sense that Noor was not normal, but since she was a lot stronger then normal Faunus due to her new power from that mysterious man she was able to feel that Noor…

…Was a Monster!

She was scared, but she was also now pissed. She didn't understand something. Wasn't he her prey? Did she treat him, or was this all a play? she wanted to know.

"How? How are you alive? How are you standing in front of me? Did you treat me!? But that shouldn't be possible, I made you follow me, I fooled you!!"

["Simple actually. I felt your killing intent when I first entered this forest, but I'm not going to lie you did trick me into following you, that was pretty sneaking that's for sure. However, you're not the only one who can be tricky, I was well prepared as well. But seriously, did you really think something like that could really stop me? You said it yourself, I'm a god. You fooled me, but so did I."] Said Noor.

["But hey don't feel bad, everyone fails sometimes, which is why we learn from the first time to correct our mistakes. Sadly you won't get that chance."] said Noor who suddenly appeared next to her ears.

The girl's eyes widened and turned to the left and nothing was there. But then she looked around and saw the forest had changed. She saw beautiful green grass that was being blown by the wind. She looked up in the beautiful sky and clouds that define nature itself.

She started to walk forward embracing the feeling. It was a feeling she recognized since she was a little kid, that feeling of home.

"Melina, what are you doing out here? Come in Breakfast is almost ready." Said voice that came from behind her. It was a voice she knew, that soft and caring voice that ran through her ears since she was a little girl. Something she missed. When she turned around it was a Faunus woman that looked exactly like her, but had dressed with her hair rapt up in a long ponytail. The woman smiled at her. The Faunus girl looked at the woman as tears slowly came from her eyes as she said these worlds.

"…Mom?"

That was the only world she said as suddenly Noor hands pirched through her body like a sword killing her while she was her own world. She was slowly losing consciousness as she reached out trying to go to her mother, but her vision became white. And that was the end of her.

(Time-Skip…)

The sky was slowly lighting up and the forest alarms went off as the raid was finally over. Everyone was heading out of the forest and heading back to base to get their reward. Raven and the tribe got their share, but Raven was waiting for the boy. She was wondering where he went off to…

"Where is he?" She said

…..

As it was time to leave Noor was sitting on a broken wood tree looking at the crying Faunus girl dead with a straight face. He then walked to the body and closed her eyes while saying these words.

"I'm sorry. But those who work for the gods that are targeting me are my enemies. No mercy, no second thoughts." He said, and then he walked away.

While he was walking he noticed he was shaking a little. He tried to walk it off but little did he know it was getting worse. Was it because he killed her even though she was his enemy? Did he feel bad? Why.

"Tsk! Guess I'm still human huh?" He said with a slight chuckle.
