《Path to Godhood: The Silver King (RWBY)》Prologue. - Silva

In a nightly sky, on the road a young adult sighed as he walked around the streets. His complexion looked pale and tired. He was an engineer graduate, named Silvestre, with Latin American heritage, his skin was tanned brown. He had just returned from another long day of job hunting, quite disappointed as most of the good jobs were taken by people with connections.
While it’s true his grades were not outstanding, they were not bad as he was a good student. Yet the reason for this, was that he was an orphan. His parents were illegal immigrants, which left their home in order to find a better life.
Yet things didn’t go well for them as they died in an accident, which left no survivors and leaving him alone. Because of his nonexistent background, he was sent to a foster home, which didn’t help him at all as without papers he was not able to be adopted. Because of that, he grew all alone, by the time he was able to get papers .His golden age for adoption had swiftly passed.
Growing up he took many different jobs in order to put himself through college, even though they died, his parents had done much things in order to try to give him a new life, so he wanted to made them proud. Because he still continued working during his college life, his grades and relationships were affected.
Reaching his small apartment, he took his key and entered the apartment. Inside he reached the refrigerator and poured himself a glass of water, his gaze turned blurry as he looked at the paper on top of a small table. It was not other than an Eviction Notice Form, one he received the day before yesterday.
No matter how many times he looked at it, there was nothing but sadness and rage that filled his heart, the building he lived in, was considered old. So after some decision the owners had decide to sell it, to some rich tycoons. He understood that no matter what he did, he couldn’t change their decisions.

Walking towards his bedroom, he immediately laid down. His mind was tired, his eyes were blurry as different emotions crossed between them. Finally he sighed once more before reaching his phone and opening YouTube. Watching a few videos, he tried to clear his mind.
He was a big fan of anime and books, he had to say, that he truly loved their funny interactions. Of course he was not the diehard type, one of his favorites series at the moment was RWBY, because it’s cool weaponry and world building. The only thing he couldn’t comprehend was to call it anime or not.
He enjoyed RWBY because its fantasy yet futuristic settings, leaving aside he was a small fan of the Grimm Brothers. Finally, after finishing the last chapter, he saw the time on his phone and put it aside. Closing his eyes the only thought left on his mind was “Do I truly want this?”
_____________________________________________________________________________________
After closing his mind, he suddenly found himself in a white space room, looking around confused, he suddenly realized that there was something in front of him, a small floating crystal. Filled with curiosity, he gently touched it, at that moment, the crystal shined and projected a few words in front of him.

“What is this? A Dream, right?” Seeing the words projected in front of him, he couldn’t help but become stunned, everything looked to surreal for him. Maybe he had gone crazy from all the stress and problems he had. Yet no matter how much he asked, nobody answered him back.

Taking a deep breath, he thought seriously and he couldn’t help but thinking of accepting. He was alone, no family, no lover, not many people he could call friends, and a crappy life. Even if everything was not but a dream, he still moved his hand and pressed the Yes. At that moment the projection changed, and a neutral voice was heard on his mind.

Hearing the system, he immediately thought that this meant he could define his semblance. Quite excited he immediately thought hard about it, after all he didn’t want to obtain a useless ability. After some time, he remembered that the color silver was quite important, so he quickly made a decision. “I decided it, I want the power of Damocles, the Silver King”
