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!
297Please respect copyright.PENANAB3BLObNXu4
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
297Please respect copyright.PENANA0eRCXCi0em
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
297Please respect copyright.PENANABnujAknpT8
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANA7VwBxh2UQu
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAGujjX1acDy
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAHwtyUkgJMg
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…
297Please respect copyright.PENANA9EZJ3aMJud
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANALBd8HfBuW2
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAfU79hRPao8
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAQTAd0pI6ZE
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAQ45tLKKr2g
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
297Please respect copyright.PENANA3GlQKQ8nY6
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANA80MGqwzhdc
???:Sorry…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAVSWvmgcIsB
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAxg3Y6ZSuNp
???:I saw everything…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAHRfPz0WFOb
He confirmed my suspicion.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAfaEqdwXDnd
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAoDZEUnVxBQ
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAwEPVRkohei
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAsssMeC3AIh
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAt2V5BBvM2w
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?
297Please respect copyright.PENANArh25CvPBJ3
Confusion easily visible on her face.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAe7wrrMGndn
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAQL2w8xnngh
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAK9OiyBeQgf
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAELNofezpCa
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAsoc1qz2DMS
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAmj8IJciRTE
She was obviously startled by that remark.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAsCSkXkm3sq
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAhcUu8R5HX9
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAOGHOLXN1sI
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAjkf2IRCrVz
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
297Please respect copyright.PENANAzZVsMeVKuJ
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAD8ANJCyEzk
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
297Please respect copyright.PENANArGGLjoeeFo
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAa9pQI778TL
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANA7lHXHLKiOz
Ruby:it's…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAxTUSHL63Un
Fang:Right here.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAxdOQpE00eS
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAddh8zIrRki
Ruby: How…
297Please respect copyright.PENANA2hvyQCywhl
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAXRkPfPQ41F
Ruby: Why?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAH2TVpkXEsj
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
297Please respect copyright.PENANArjJyOy7FVw
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
297Please respect copyright.PENANA2EQFDwQ51u
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
297Please respect copyright.PENANArHvQo0NAAo
Fang:Why not?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAuJman5MZ31
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAZxBLzDPHsg
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAyB5t1YcuuR
Ruby Pov:
297Please respect copyright.PENANAwkp95nhmJI
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAOdoDTL273e
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANARNyQ2XjXuZ
I…
297Please respect copyright.PENANA2K3sn3kx6I
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAagNsSQVAeC
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAJZkfJ1N1lj
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
297Please respect copyright.PENANA8PdVO85N77
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAyPcuoufK57
What is he gonna say?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAjNOjkoPDGR
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAktbT5Ip2Yr
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
297Please respect copyright.PENANAInKlbjyQ9z
Ruby:...
297Please respect copyright.PENANAfGwz0Y3rX2
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.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAEqbdUyR7oY
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
297Please respect copyright.PENANAlv7wOjkPq7
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…
297Please respect copyright.PENANA4C5GnW5ExA
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…
297Please respect copyright.PENANAfhAf3hfuCH
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
297Please respect copyright.PENANA6X39Yo89aB
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…
