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!
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOxGkAyNlM
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZhRq7lwzS
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJFSCTKZUP
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…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFZBFHicw1
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQlDXn7iUr
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…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOWvMHEL4L
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtW1dIHmiS
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WvhlWgrtz
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84CYH2sEyv
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvt71XOlNl
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDjmiO8pdc
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1UX2bCaI7
???:Sorry…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg4hWetiUB
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0G6eA1YJQ
???:I saw everything…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1hmGiQrSw
He confirmed my suspicion.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWykq9hFak
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKR0MBt9ZF3
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP6HfKbl5P
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbVQS7BZoY
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ0lkzV1qY
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?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9nOQa2U1l
Confusion easily visible on her face.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduthoC5RkP
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4avPoPEZtz
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU2v1vPJwc
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktSspe72WU
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenlHDAbhZv
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiKrjPViSD
She was obviously startled by that remark.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZG8HGXaaW
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzSdE1jG65
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJx2fNEFC9
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSMInaQcTX
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvK757LTeS
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4zytW07uB
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6c9iIG9cqR
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOl7JRpIPv
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYv07unzVde
Ruby:it's…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99Lw8IU6eG
Fang:Right here.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiC5u1p2bYf
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BnIKeXLt5
Ruby: How…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrIkAgGvXV
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0pHgECvrL
Ruby: Why?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1DQD6nOFJ
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccar1bpPt9
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTinHxIMSud
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHXJomExWW
Fang:Why not?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZbM1e9LYn
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRdfEU4rvXb
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…

Ruby Pov:
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPaPDjzIm0
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5Mn6j0VCc
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFaX4WGFze
I…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2CFWhqZFl
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvqPMrCFP2
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzpNtrsY6x
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegTz71gcw8
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRR0nB1LIIf
What is he gonna say?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2uiLpu9273
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWjO9yMg9A
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDpLxhJs0e
Ruby:...
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCQWUXBmLu
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.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1aZS4W0kz
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnbKAf1mUM
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…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQDIaEjCrR
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…
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM3TpswSZ6
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
386Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPRg5Xo1g1
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…
