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!
384Please respect copyright.PENANAW92g2vP8mS
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
384Please respect copyright.PENANA3WHjSQ4fj0
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
384Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9XFhQNRFL
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.

Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAZoRVmL9rjy
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
384Please respect copyright.PENANA8lh6HfI9wf
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…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAgQBzX2zuPd
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAHZWBr6NswA
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAe9OOYmaone
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAgSKoN4jf29
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
384Please respect copyright.PENANABc23aqWkOd
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAvUXtMZbVBD
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAuodeNOZGnw
???:Sorry…
384Please respect copyright.PENANADkqmr11aSL
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
384Please respect copyright.PENANA6eXbsBUUzx
???:I saw everything…
384Please respect copyright.PENANA8fPBcUtXwq
He confirmed my suspicion.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAeh9YUOmH4u
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAfcAIZWkrY2
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAmFUVMVgWub
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
384Please respect copyright.PENANADqccLR5duO
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
384Please respect copyright.PENANApsxJSCgg9z
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?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAQCXn2w9vTN
Confusion easily visible on her face.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAXOg8hiazHf
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAx0ND3hmMLo
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAg4vaNJslOj
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAq442imkg53
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAcIh0PZwOuZ
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
384Please respect copyright.PENANACKSvxZFD5v
She was obviously startled by that remark.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAAxF5AlTiKO
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAfD4MuIo16v
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
384Please respect copyright.PENANA5VMeydEXEp
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAWcexXVlB8t
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
384Please respect copyright.PENANA2xrDFHl2PZ
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAtQxzmzO43f
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
384Please respect copyright.PENANA5CP8Lj3QOF
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAEmCvjrrD7H
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANA1hHaDJOLQA
Ruby:it's…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAGcf5nDeBQH
Fang:Right here.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAJZBwXpOPdN
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAmjmuYbZDXP
Ruby: How…
384Please respect copyright.PENANABm1Y6TMU2a
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAtO06QqbXx8
Ruby: Why?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAegUQGHb4JX
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAgc4k3uGYGp
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
384Please respect copyright.PENANA5Q0cPfDT5I
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAu18PMGpYAA
Fang:Why not?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAlKoI7odDUT
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
384Please respect copyright.PENANANN9zURBRU1
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAbNeevnHbl8
Ruby Pov:
384Please respect copyright.PENANAUCgZPu2DEA
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAZ7okU4dZ0u
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAOue1vZCRHv
I…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAgBCuLLjMdb
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
384Please respect copyright.PENANA7j2lZo2hrU
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAlHqmBVm2ZV
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAgBTeEz6XkX
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAJHR8U3ITHe
What is he gonna say?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAs5lu6uGWxj
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAnJS5GuDlrE
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
384Please respect copyright.PENANAB83V0v6Nad
Ruby:...
384Please respect copyright.PENANAphLNpEc8nQ
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.
384Please respect copyright.PENANATeuTF02vWG
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
384Please respect copyright.PENANAIPltO30yj1
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…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAHGCqeLpGHB
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…
384Please respect copyright.PENANAWFqqsBRPoS
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
384Please respect copyright.PENANA64k4gTxHln
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…
