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!
385Please respect copyright.PENANAKnELVBVffm
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAUchRoHXdyG
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
385Please respect copyright.PENANA6hTKzohgCO
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…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAy31TSG8eyT
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAeSlILedXvV
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…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAEqUKvF6maZ
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAhLUWz1jSiO
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAm5OIn2J4xU
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANA2TYwOHvAji
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1bRsYMObw
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
385Please respect copyright.PENANA90PyUVcugk
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7zg65cCxv
???:Sorry…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAlKH3yRW8MV
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAz8311FnT5y
???:I saw everything…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAz4hkEqeysI
He confirmed my suspicion.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAAj68OTWt3c
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
385Please respect copyright.PENANANadVcnH5SU
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
385Please respect copyright.PENANA4seMurRXuS
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAOMU7iCLZE0
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7vTiXVqQa
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?
385Please respect copyright.PENANArF71VVKFtI
Confusion easily visible on her face.
385Please respect copyright.PENANANMXklOm503
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAzgkSKHpHvw
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAwsTg5qYABM
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANApoUjc2679f
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAVv7OLbGa3U
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
385Please respect copyright.PENANA2AAsjsIoER
She was obviously startled by that remark.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAYrJOfkDtHl
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAfJFM2CraJK
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
385Please respect copyright.PENANALqz8MClrb9
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAZavF5f187y
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
385Please respect copyright.PENANAKta3KHKWte
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAx0lqVFJYKu
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
385Please respect copyright.PENANA6yLaQUWXft
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAa64cABimug
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAS3Sb7RZC0k
Ruby:it's…
385Please respect copyright.PENANA0h2KAHt55o
Fang:Right here.
385Please respect copyright.PENANANuERn4NEuK
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANANnyNP7aety
Ruby: How…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAs4cQ7S96h6
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAGGbxq3xa1W
Ruby: Why?
385Please respect copyright.PENANApGpKdJ3ASA
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAt90E0vxTVZ
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
385Please respect copyright.PENANATl8IWDWFyT
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAOzJsR4LVkQ
Fang:Why not?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAB868ZJSxVn
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAbRKnjAj3lp
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAIeA3P93STC
Ruby Pov:
385Please respect copyright.PENANA7sStNZtFuS
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAE30SoJIEiW
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAaSoc8aMepb
I…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAteGDnAFZ5h
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAIjYVXmmwaa
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
385Please respect copyright.PENANARpOZUQZTDM
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
385Please respect copyright.PENANA0v1cUoWfe1
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAt27wMVGFh7
What is he gonna say?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAucL7Ts2MN7
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAcF56GH2hyX
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
385Please respect copyright.PENANAGLJxUOIGBq
Ruby:...
385Please respect copyright.PENANAebxDBFmhjC
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.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAIsnncSMjnD
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
385Please respect copyright.PENANAr3AYQKdtxQ
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…
385Please respect copyright.PENANAYETZOLIXzH
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…
385Please respect copyright.PENANASJUnrTtVON
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
385Please respect copyright.PENANA8FvNQTiVCJ
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…
