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!
265Please respect copyright.PENANAApgr4PNqT0
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAUtTJzkgDbB
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
265Please respect copyright.PENANA6CsdBtjREp
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAwExdkIND8D
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
265Please respect copyright.PENANASdI3g3pRu9
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAUDuIDqnFLm
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…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAECG5kKFZqz
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAYu4cjmUi3Z
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
265Please respect copyright.PENANA7NarWM95D7
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAX7cStPDJOp
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
265Please respect copyright.PENANARJ2hWdfIHm
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA4mveSCgQGF
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAxlSgJzvZKZ
???:Sorry…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAhNxDgqkRYM
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAo0qCcPGvXI
???:I saw everything…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAmMR61MUHd9
He confirmed my suspicion.
265Please respect copyright.PENANArTjBMAiSaB
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAKXh6A8LIEi
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAJPgnpk1xPP
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAVC2zanVC1k
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAm535DNuyI4
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?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAFWZeRKs6kB
Confusion easily visible on her face.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAaI1SepBfUj
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAWcvw9ndDAb
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAFaVZ7dhmby
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAuv3dy3ZDgE
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAXmFeTGjjjR
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA5hRSJ1RA5f
She was obviously startled by that remark.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAe7AKqgLuM4
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAi9qeioeIs1
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA9z4cRgx6eo
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAbe0UwjrNhz
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
265Please respect copyright.PENANAN86eW5016e
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAy1vguBwMWI
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
265Please respect copyright.PENANABGhJHrIYms
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA2LBSUDMHLb
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA1420zWGg5y
Ruby:it's…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAhSEWAZiYPn
Fang:Right here.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA1rmuTaMIn3
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAQKiDFEt0Al
Ruby: How…
265Please respect copyright.PENANA9SMK5DmcDL
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAEk7X0DhoIH
Ruby: Why?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAQsxnDDkYbx
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAEcGQfuZ3CI
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
265Please respect copyright.PENANA3zW9oXXMdN
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAfXGLQcmful
Fang:Why not?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAOGjsnwXyyG
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
265Please respect copyright.PENANArC3OU0UZM8
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAAZK2IUX7iN
Ruby Pov:
265Please respect copyright.PENANATpGHzk9xtC
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAgHdiGkNcjE
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAdAfM4uutJD
I…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAlo3ezWvCSY
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
265Please respect copyright.PENANATHFhbX6Tf0
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAxgz89k3qDI
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAA4ITx1RhH1
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAmMZSWOK8mS
What is he gonna say?
265Please respect copyright.PENANARWU9GrmlAe
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA4siZAxsalz
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAN0ykxLj17i
Ruby:...
265Please respect copyright.PENANAeaxHeo241z
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.
265Please respect copyright.PENANAg6MzGKlNRY
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
265Please respect copyright.PENANA9tnRrhNP9G
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…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAfmg8Ee87Xg
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…
265Please respect copyright.PENANAmMQTIJ90pq
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
265Please respect copyright.PENANAysTAOI3bum
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…
