Iris looked up at the ceiling and wandered deep into her memories, " Cyrus Zox is my cousin and the only one I can call family. He took care of me since I was a baby, and made me into the electro geek you see today. Actually, he and I took a blood test, just to see how we're related, and found out that we're third cousins. He's a computer geek, like you and I, but works as a brilliant scientific engineer."

Thinking of all the fun times she had with Cyrus, brought tears to the young Faunus' eyes.

"He was never good at relationships, so he stuck to nurturing me, like a parent would. He helped me in so many bad situations, I can't even count. Without Cyrus, I would've been dead a long time ago. He just seemed to be the one of the few things that calmed me down, when I got nervous or scared."

Thinking of how it came to be made Iris shudder.

"Apparently, he found me at his doorstep with a note that said, 'Take care of her', on it. You'd guess it was from my parents, but I never got to meet them. Actually, I searched all over the Atlas region for any trace of them, about a year before coming to Beacon. Found absolutly nothing. No sightings, DNA traces, just a dead end."

Iris sniffled as she thought about her parents. She knew nothing about them. They never contacted her, and never bothered to do anything about their little girl. It made her sick to her stomach to think of parents who did that to their own flesh and blood.

"But, enough about me. What's your family like?"
