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!
267Please respect copyright.PENANA1jDFPvjPoQ
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
267Please respect copyright.PENANASi9nQdFS3E
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
267Please respect copyright.PENANA6wB9xbnZrn
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANADlvmmvW37D
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAf3J5EIExR5
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAXgYXkLfI3N
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…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAexIIgfmZ42
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANA5Kr5S8cQ9v
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAkzF75VNq9y
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAc8WyJaQQ8X
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAEL7svz6s3D
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAIaHhTtCnsK
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAXOFUw1hLnE
???:Sorry…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAbLBOMaHy7r
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAtU8dF4M7rQ
???:I saw everything…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAJO5Qj5QE6u
He confirmed my suspicion.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAMti2kuGt0v
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAvVonDk9HMe
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAQMu7Y1gfuU
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAGd33VkDZOJ
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAhwCMawFvK4
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?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAStbwa12R4g
Confusion easily visible on her face.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAuan8X6KrYN
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAjiA6oDKwQx
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAgYxHX1CA28
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANA0CBov7I4bS
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
267Please respect copyright.PENANA7gsMBltq8S
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
267Please respect copyright.PENANA83urfLYn1m
She was obviously startled by that remark.
267Please respect copyright.PENANA8y6JQmhotT
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAGqk00vzQJv
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
267Please respect copyright.PENANA9LLHaMflWV
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAqa17TQTuLc
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
267Please respect copyright.PENANAoHUfQZqfvr
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAy7JZnjeGrO
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
267Please respect copyright.PENANALzr09NPWmy
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANASaVlCJc5z4
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAgct8RgtHaK
Ruby:it's…
267Please respect copyright.PENANABKLkSDJ7Y3
Fang:Right here.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAJajnMV3C2c
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANA6247hPzmJa
Ruby: How…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAfQmsH9HeP5
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAcE7ST5grE0
Ruby: Why?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAdNOmFCndRs
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1sw2Ctzow
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
267Please respect copyright.PENANAkXSuBlXAti
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
267Please respect copyright.PENANA6xoiLAFS0g
Fang:Why not?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAvV1d5wVQc3
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAmUJv5JfAAX
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAMixRm0GNDm
Ruby Pov:
267Please respect copyright.PENANAk6XgBIVvSW
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAUusE9njNbo
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANADfSddW9Kjk
I…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAGqO5JHfCDy
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAnf5VTXoFfR
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAv99b0AyCI0
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAMLkEsDlzmA
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAJHAJfEMsfM
What is he gonna say?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAKgA8FgqnLE
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAp2Tfo5gm8A
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAALAJ5NPz9C
Ruby:...
267Please respect copyright.PENANAsPwfGbIPIS
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.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAqnPC913Gp8
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAwJXzCiirMv
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…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAfD6EaffP8d
I gripped the sleeve of the gentle arm wrapped around my neck as the endless stream of tears continued to pour.
267Please respect copyright.PENANAUmihPFOc9k

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…
267Please respect copyright.PENANAuh6gkdrrf4
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
267Please respect copyright.PENANAuAoCjHIzGj
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…
