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!
290Please respect copyright.PENANAa8iNx7ZcHx
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAQjbXY0RfFE
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
290Please respect copyright.PENANATNtJee9YSA
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAAty99yDiy0
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAZRGmXMVpOp
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAnF4ZbYemyV
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…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAt79pxBycec
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA6HeuqVkvib
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
290Please respect copyright.PENANABsvqRMYIlm
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAOlNLtnhqCz
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
290Please respect copyright.PENANAEnKkzsZF9r
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA1jeS4SDFkd
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAZGrb29uLP1
???:Sorry…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAivo99hxGZ4
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAQPeTw4lTsi
???:I saw everything…
290Please respect copyright.PENANA8AKSoPj2WO
He confirmed my suspicion.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAqwAU6Bvgsf
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAuLLeQ0lOAT
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAcHMbNEnw5N
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAtAxpFL7miR
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAxjH0x1NVZ7
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?
290Please respect copyright.PENANA8muqH8MGBX
Confusion easily visible on her face.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAjGwWsQSc60
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
290Please respect copyright.PENANA9GjsELkbh9
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAtisq9gpqO8
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAV3Zc1jbjxf
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
290Please respect copyright.PENANApHXlxnNybE
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAi4gTTfXHYy
She was obviously startled by that remark.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAj7iUPHwGMA
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
290Please respect copyright.PENANAbjtqRdjdSP
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA1UMknCoB1z
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAzp5bmErPRk
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
290Please respect copyright.PENANAlggoMaeKJC
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAYt1QmA8OjX
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
290Please respect copyright.PENANARhnlStLzS3
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANACni2ZIiINM
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA4YPo4RDtfP
Ruby:it's…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAZDBXa1Ob3Q
Fang:Right here.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA8bbGSrDsxC
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA1rgat5HMDg
Ruby: How…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAuKIreDlY81
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAkGtN7ebjXp
Ruby: Why?
290Please respect copyright.PENANAiRkjSN7Vd9
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
290Please respect copyright.PENANA5kOQD7nJpp
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
290Please respect copyright.PENANAflczNvpp7N
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
290Please respect copyright.PENANA3pdnU6XnWe
Fang:Why not?
290Please respect copyright.PENANAMpSYBlpdVX
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAPNOuTO3MIa
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAqLkE6XXopW
Ruby Pov:
290Please respect copyright.PENANAy3KoDQJzAJ
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAmBUbHlt2US
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAs5ujFDpC9s
I…
290Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ewhr6xu9J
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAPp5l2z0j6Y
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAR88pXUBJ60
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
290Please respect copyright.PENANA1pa1mAKmoF
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAhhGs5fskon
What is he gonna say?
290Please respect copyright.PENANAwY3t03VX1r
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAqjG4auczW3
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
290Please respect copyright.PENANAvvSZAIZLXB
Ruby:...
290Please respect copyright.PENANAGrr8jbWtu7
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.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAiq6TsekgVM
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
290Please respect copyright.PENANAYz03a5GFJt
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…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAKuyY8kbeZl
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…
290Please respect copyright.PENANAtc6L2VBNS6
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
290Please respect copyright.PENANAhrZuxlFnPT
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…
