Verte's pov

' fucking bastard,' I think venomously as I slam my room's door,' Jaune showed promise but apparently he wasn't what you wanted, huh dad.' I throw myself onto my messy bed. I sigh looking at the bed missing my brother already, and not because he suddenly became eye candy, but because of the memories.

" When did it all start to change," I ask myself as I silently sob.

" I can't tell you but I wonder myself," says a voice from the door and I look to see rogue standing there holding a ever present bottle of liquor.

" Oh great it's the drunk, finally drank the world dry," I say looking at her with disdain," I remember you being one of the first to start turning on our brother along with Violet and Bleu."

" I know and I had my reasons," she says looking away about to sip from the bottle but I throw my boot knocking it from her hands.

" Speak, and don't go for the bottle while you do, or else," I warn her as I take off my other boot.

" Because I cared to much," says rogue looking away.

" Bull shit," I say," you don't care enough about anyone but the bottle."

" Shut up," she says lowly as I continue.

" Shut up!" She screams at me as I look at her tear streaked face," I loved him, I practically raised him as our parents didn't give two shits about him. His first words to me weren't sissy or anything like that, it was Mommy. I cried myself when he said those words to me. I feared he'd get attached even more so after he turned five I distanced myself as it was easy with huntress school and all.

" But it hurt doing this to him, especially when I received crayon written notes from him wishing me luck drawings of me in crayon beating bad guys. One letter said I miss you mommy. That's when I broke down and became like this. Not to numb the pain of my job or bad relationships, no it's because I don't have the balls to face Jaune after I done what I did." She says as she drops to the floor crying.

" What did you do?" I ask fearing something but curious at the action she took. I wish I never did.

" I beat him, oh fucking oum I slapped him so hard he hit the table by the door. His head split open from the corner and blood ran down his head but I didn't stop. I kept slapping him pouring my frustration at our parents into my hits. I used Aura to forcefully unlock his and have it heal him before locking it away before I continued.

" I stopped eventually when I ran out of Aura but it was to late. My hands were stained red and so was the wall beside us and his and my clothes. I also unlocked my semblance blood drawn. I wished the blood away and it disappeared back into my body. I ran from the scene to my room and called the ambulance. I told them he fell and hit his head and they believed me. Jaune has no memory of the event or anything before regarding us, selective amnesia is what it's called.

"Forgetting a traumatic event and anything that deals with it. I cry myself to sleep every fucking night begging for forgiveness from the nothings in my room. Every time I go on a mission I wish for it to be my last so I don't have to see Jaune again. I can't stand looking at him because all I see is his beautiful young face bleeding from my hits, my hands stained in his blood."

That confession sent me seeing red. I wanted to slap her, no beat her till she's dying but I stopped.

" I know you can't forgive me, I don't forgive myself. " Rogue says reaching for the bottle this time I don't stop her, " We all love Jaune, more than a brother just like Saphron and we caused him the most harm. It's going to be a battle and a half to confess to him and hope he returns our feelings. I know I don't deserve them."

I nod my head at that statement and remember what I done to my brother. Apparently all of us have issues and we took it out on him.

" No sissy Verte I don't want to play this game anymore," his young six year old voice sounds in my head as I remember what I done. I abused my brother's trust just to fit in with the "cool " crowd. I watched as they molested my brother as I just video taped. I turned it in later to the police but his trust in me was never the same. He forgot that incident as well but I could tell he never trusted any of the girls afterwards. If it wasn't for his accident with the Grimm changing him he'd probably never have been friendly with us again if that didn't happen. I'd never forgive myself either. I hug rogue and we both cry on my bed before falling asleep wishing we could change things.

Jaune's pov

" I stare at the recordings of my scroll playing my sister Rogue and verte's confessions. I lay it down beside me as memories unlock. I look towards the sleeping form of Saphron and smile a little, also glad for the earbuds I'm wearing. She's the only one who never hurt Jaune but loved him. His second Mommy from when he/I was young. I'll forgive them when they come out this way asking for forgiveness. I know it might be wrong to forgive them but I'm not truly Jaune anymore.
