Zaffre felt her fork drop. Oh god she knows?! Her body trembled slightly, the feeling of being sick once more returning but she fought against it. Melira was right, she had to tell them the truth. With a deep breathe she calmed down.

"Okay...to begin with...Cindy Glass...as you all might know is an alias...my real name is...Zaffre Perrault..." She could seeseveral eyes of recollection flicker. "Yes, as in the Perrault Weapons, the most famous of weapon makers. I was adopted by them...My family...my parents...I guess I better start at the beginning..." The blonde placed her fork down, laying her hands on her lap, but constantly moved them to alive her anxiety.

"I was found in a forest filled with Grimm by two Faunus, the Lupinus. They took me in and raised me as their own, despite the fact I was human. I dodn't know my birth parents, and I'm sure they meant to abandon me considering where I was found. We lived in a village of Faunus outside the same forest, and because they lived so close to the Grimm, everyone there was an expert on using Aura. They taught me how to use mine. I'll admit it...i was bullied for being human and ostricised, but it didn't bother me. I had my parents, and Calco. He's my childhood friend...my only frined during those times...One day....I was in the forest...I wanted to make something for my parents....I was found by two Huntsmen..." The memory played out as she spoke in detail.

"They thught i was a lost child and atempted to 'save' me...But i told them my parents were Faunus...that was the worst mistake of my life...." Tears began to well up at the corner of her eyes. "Humans didn't like that a member of their race was being raised by the beasts, and so I suspect discriminative politicians managed to create a case...a case the Lupinus lost...they lost....and I had....I was to be taken to a foster home...that was ten years ago..." By this time the tears streamed out.

"I was adopted by the Perraults....everyone sans Mr. Perrault was cruel. I hated that place, i tried multiple times to run away...Mr. Perrault was nice to me...he found out the details of my adoption and decided that, if i fulfilled his conditions...i could go back home. I did them...i completed the tasks..." Her shaking continued. "But then...he died....one of his warehouses caught on fire with him inside...he burned to death....all hope of seeing them was lost....The goerness...my step-mother and my sisters...they began treating me as a slave....I went to Sactum for a bit but i was pulled out...they all thought that those raised by the beasts should be treated as such...."

"Years went by...i kept trying to run away...i got caught...and punished for it..." Her hand traveled to her back, the memory plain as day. "Suddenly...one day...they went to a party...locked me in my room...i managed to escape...I took everything that was meaningful to me....and I ran away...I attendded Sactum again...changed my name...and with some teachers help...got into Beacon...." The day she met Ozpin, when he found out her past, she could see the pity look in the man's eyes. "Ozpin found out...he promised to help me....So...i attended the second semester, partner-less, but an expert at making weapons. I used the skills I had over the years and made a living as a janitor, a cook, a weaponsmaker, at Beacon...and well..here we are...."
