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!
425Please respect copyright.PENANAaBNF4iZkoE
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAm1ShWzpfWk
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
425Please respect copyright.PENANAgdRU58xpuM
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAYl0SIMKU8e
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAK4ZM5gcFBS
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
425Please respect copyright.PENANABl5fCZKtGd
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…
425Please respect copyright.PENANA4sfMI0z3lq
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAVgBBKjfOrh
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
425Please respect copyright.PENANA2bxACH30zn
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAwZNP9E22vo
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAnQsmQOUnZX
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
425Please respect copyright.PENANA1FmipuoEt0
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANANAEBDhq9hu
???:Sorry…
425Please respect copyright.PENANA2qMKbmTivx
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
425Please respect copyright.PENANATJqigJfzIQ
???:I saw everything…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAHGmK8fDYU8
He confirmed my suspicion.
425Please respect copyright.PENANA76u4rf7YoE
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAneV7sM4Zc2
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAxCufcjBSNA
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAp8AQpv2t82
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAy2gsg36M19
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?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAJEvcBtaxIS
Confusion easily visible on her face.
425Please respect copyright.PENANATKEs8J1yQX
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAJKoa3OglsR
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAj7R1m2UY2t
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAjCv3MVP7US
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAWg5syWoQPU
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAFc1tz6xTdZ
She was obviously startled by that remark.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAt7WfROIMuI
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAsfEW12Ceh8
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAX72RMBsrvI
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAL88qgEcRnJ
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
425Please respect copyright.PENANA4y9osp5lNE
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
425Please respect copyright.PENANA22cEB9Ddzu
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAOuChSd12HG
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANA5Cg7muEiJB
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAaXd0ro3PhA
Ruby:it's…
425Please respect copyright.PENANANQXWYuE19Q
Fang:Right here.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAViKlyznomD
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANASLJtEDUayF
Ruby: How…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAGQlghR4MeW
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAbmZSG327zk
Ruby: Why?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAo30lVY7yT7
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAIeNOBXdmVi
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
425Please respect copyright.PENANA1sFKRQLbbZ
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAPesyoqFXfM
Fang:Why not?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAoHwkAuODL1
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAb9ww3GpaSQ
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAHONUla7Tqk
Ruby Pov:
425Please respect copyright.PENANAh36jCxG62N
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAf0i8AwqhXQ
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAILXKgHkcRJ
I…
425Please respect copyright.PENANA7mfTXSqPqV
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAwhTB2wApRq
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAbhs35E09EB
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
425Please respect copyright.PENANABQ17r4rBox
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
425Please respect copyright.PENANAD40ciZhuWO
What is he gonna say?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAO7AkFQnpkA
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAOaksYItUgw
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAtOnriNMfOh
Ruby:...
425Please respect copyright.PENANAn8h8JYzDu5
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.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAjnEOmF9TRd
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
425Please respect copyright.PENANAKJNPgAIIP6
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…
425Please respect copyright.PENANA5PUuhf63uF
I gripped the sleeve of the gentle arm wrapped around my neck as the endless stream of tears continued to pour.

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…
425Please respect copyright.PENANA52ecjpOlmX
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
425Please respect copyright.PENANAA2SGjKwRPi
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…
