Fang rushed to the source of the scream, he discovered the source within a clearing two girls were arguing. One short girl who seemed to be about twelve with reddish black hair, the other was a taller, more broader girl with blonde hair and yellow colored gauntlets covering her wrist and most of her lower arms.

Black Haired:NO PLEASE DON’T!
169Please respect copyright.PENANA0hDcoerKNB
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAeeIozHN4s8
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
169Please respect copyright.PENANAUsKW4G3XiW
Her voice held a large mass of venom. Fang bit down on his tongue as he watched the Redhead Girl who was apparently named Ruby lay on the ground, tears streaming down from her eyes, a bruise already forming over her left eye.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA9fRMpomzBo
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAcvS188uo55
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAf0rBqNS72i
Fang looked on as Yang continued to beat on Ruby, each hit causing more and more bile to rise to his throat. This went on for a couple more minutes before Yang eventually walked off laughing leaving a bruised and crying Ruby to pick herself up. Fang sighed as he disappeared…

Ruby Pov:
It hurts,it hurts each hit, each foul word caused by my own sister drove the already intense pain in my heart deeper. No one cares about me…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzFM4bzbO0j
After what seemed like ages Yang finally left, It was hard to breathe. She really messed up my lungs with those punches. With a painful deep breath I sat up, tears, which have been falling for quite some time now, continued to pour from my eyes. One of my eyes wouldn’t open, probably swollen. A sharp pain in my wrist caused me to wince as a recently self- inflicted wound opened up.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAkxmxMvAgN9
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAXqcHsRZ0e2
A shade of blue crosses my teary vision. Who was that? it was so fast, I couldn’t make out if it was human or a new type of Grimm.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAnUvwZCo3Il
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
169Please respect copyright.PENANA5ZWE1xPt2p
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAzlElH89uqv
I had no choice but to trust him and my eyes were basically rendered useless. Relaxing my body I felt a cold hand gently touch my cheek sending a shiver through my body.
169Please respect copyright.PENANANhStRaedLo
???:Sorry…
169Please respect copyright.PENANA0WjM7kRGFH
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAcUkhmblJFf
???:I saw everything…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAkp2edmwESH
He confirmed my suspicion.
169Please respect copyright.PENANArNllz8n6BX
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAFfrLHdhWdk
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAI1j0IEWHEc
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYhQW26J1b5
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAj2T5whAhDK
Doing as I was instructed I opened my bruised eye, it easily opened, clearing out the blur revealing a boy with azure colored eyes and dark blue hair.

Ruby:Who are you?
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQwDj7BDETy
Confusion easily visible on her face.
169Please respect copyright.PENANApAsjoDIKhB
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
169Please respect copyright.PENANA565scxz5gi
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAFPQljnLWHH
Fang stood up with a hand outstretched, Ruby eyed it for a moment wondering if her wounds would allow her to move. She looked at her hand, the bleeding had somehow stopped, her lungs actually felt lighter it was almost as if all the pain had suddenly left her body.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA68AdDh9XFb
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
169Please respect copyright.PENANAOvL32gC7RW
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAjL3lVtB3eA
She was obviously startled by that remark.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAUQr2GDwv26
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
169Please respect copyright.PENANA7oBMseJeGX
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAMcPwgomwht
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
169Please respect copyright.PENANA8XIe98IKJg
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
169Please respect copyright.PENANArDkGWkVIAF
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAptVcYeBnEc
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
169Please respect copyright.PENANACEycjcoH62
Ruby didn’t speak, she just sat there panting as she reached up to her neck Fang caught a glimpse of it, a shock collar and it was active. Fang sat down next to Ruby slowly reaching for the collar; she was too busy dealing with the tingly feeling shooting through her body to notice, all she knew was that the pain suddenly disappeared.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAlHzIK1rY9R
She sat there releasing multiple shallow breaths and tears streaming down the side of her face. After a moment she reached a hand up to her neck to find the collar gone.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAx1kk8ER9Yo
Ruby:it's…
169Please respect copyright.PENANA0WwCxr2TyP
Fang:Right here.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAgy9c5ZQwZ5
Ruby looked up to find the collar that caused her a great amount of pain and discomfort in Fang’s hand, the light still glaring green.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAIBKhtkC09q
Ruby: How…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAwhr2lIX8Hb
She didn’t feel him remove it. Fang threw the collar into the air with a swift movement, a sword materialized on his side as he unsheathed the blade, slicing the collar in half. Both pieces hit the grass without making a sound.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAAFioMJmY6W
Ruby: Why?
169Please respect copyright.PENANA9UF7Q6qi0v
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
169Please respect copyright.PENANAcbZR5jCjgG
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
169Please respect copyright.PENANAgqHhiENVrw
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQ21w7dX0Uk
Fang:Why not?
169Please respect copyright.PENANAicUe1FiLKW
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
169Please respect copyright.PENANA78yvDjq9Mx
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAvMI6XbzmfF
Ruby Pov:
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYMlXBdSPDG
Images of my family before my mother died flashed in my mind. We were always so happy. I was still too young to remember much but the stuff I do remember was enough to make me long for the past.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAEQKCVTyDEE
I’m so weak…I deserve to be hurt…Fang’s probably gonna leave as well after all I’m good for is making people hate me. I yelled at someone who just tried to help me. All I could do was turn my worthless face away from him as I cried.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAiCaOGlgH04
I…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAWr2BrCLaa1
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAKutP3pCXes
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAQPWZMBi1ER
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
169Please respect copyright.PENANAlvYeMsCTc4
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAptZo7emLfj
What is he gonna say?
169Please respect copyright.PENANAS71J73Ak4A
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAPpEernTUUE
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
169Please respect copyright.PENANA1K4xAAhQb5
Ruby:...
169Please respect copyright.PENANA7Kc9tJ0FyI
My tears streamed down even harder now it was almost as if all the weight on my shoulders were being crushed underneath his kindness.I tightened my grasp on his shirt, I couldn’t stop crying, it only came harder.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAHERYR5CAsl
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
169Please respect copyright.PENANADsbq9gIz97
He’s comforting me. No one has ever done that for me, not even my own sister. Not since my new step-mother showed up…It’s all her fault she lied to me, she was the one that tore my family apart, SHE’S THE DISGRACE…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAPQC6u7LTJ8
I gripped the sleeve of the gentle arm wrapped around my neck as the endless stream of tears continued to pour.
169Please respect copyright.PENANAc8wvefQbEq

Fang could feel Ruby going limp in his arms. He looked down at her, she was lightly sleeping in his arms. She was actually kinda cute…
169Please respect copyright.PENANAedU6sMTTj0
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
169Please respect copyright.PENANAYD0sv7tpLK
He carefully set Ruby on the ground as he stood up. There were no energy signals near him so he decided to set up a house here. Night was already breaking over the trees as Fang’s hair and eyes flared cyan, he pressed both his palms to the ground…
