Summary
After a series of unexpected circumstances renders Ruby Rose unable to participate in Beacon Academy’s initiation test, she is approached by Headmaster Ozpin with a new offer – to use these circumstances to her advantage and infiltrate the forces of the enemy as a double agent. Before Ruby knows what accepting this truly means, she finds herself swept away in a new world where monsters roam and the thieves and assassins are only the grunts.
But as Ruby’s mission begins to take away more and more from her, questions she (and Ozpin) can’t answer begin to arise. What is this obsession with silver eyes that both sides seem to fixate on? How far will Ruby go to bring back the maiden powers Ozpin tasked her with stealing from under Salem’s nose? And just why was she, little Ruby Rose, accepted so easily by the Queen of the Grimm into her ranks?
Rated M for violence, not horny

Summary
The brighter the light, the darker the shadows. And in a super-powered society, those shadows are dark indeed. But whilst the world desperately trained more and more heroes, making that light brighter and brighter, the prestigious hero school, UA, had another idea. Why not tackle the problem at its source?
And so was born the infamous class 1-A. Would-be criminals from all over the country were selected, and a group of twenty now roam the halls of the school, alongside the heroes of the next generation.
Last year, the entirety of Mr Aizawa’s class A graduated. But this year was different. No, he didn’t believe they would all graduate back into society like the classes before them. He believed they could become something bigger. That was why, with gritted teeth and a manic smile, Eraser Head turned to his new class of students and said:
"You aren't villains - you never were, and you never will be. But you can take that fire inside of you and put it to good use. We're in a hero school, aren't we? Well then...
"Let's be heroes."
