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!
298Please respect copyright.PENANACtbtSfO8zU
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAVgSsMGh6tJ
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
298Please respect copyright.PENANAnmbTSTuXkX
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAfTdVmnQlaU
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAZY7KI229vf
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAwAgRJvyJOx
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…
298Please respect copyright.PENANA33sg6J4Dmw
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAAdpcregDgo
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
298Please respect copyright.PENANA2E5EnHMNGx
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAk8UX5nHWqk
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
298Please respect copyright.PENANA5UQF5wrboI
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAMzJPiClVAm
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANA2WwfE9Q1io
???:Sorry…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAcQx7Pokxeu
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAcfestCo1qH
???:I saw everything…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAA0nrtA5IrW
He confirmed my suspicion.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAzxAWuvSYtJ
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAuC8QZfh95F
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAiHQ75trO24
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
298Please respect copyright.PENANATe82sPPjpv
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAVceK7ra1QL
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?
298Please respect copyright.PENANANYF78cov2B
Confusion easily visible on her face.
298Please respect copyright.PENANA3Tq6QKy2Ft
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAg1LDLvX5lr
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAEXt4WZLKId
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAI6wtMMV8JN
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAUmerhz1HdE
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAvLSECUKAOr
She was obviously startled by that remark.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAVX4m4Fn2VP
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAc1pQBvA8wU
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
298Please respect copyright.PENANACqYkTUrlrx
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAYZ2nwZ70BN
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
298Please respect copyright.PENANAWp3ggNf3rV
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAOThi4r5hne
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAQvWTr7Umhq
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAP3Q7w0Oq4O
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAIQLlyeM2MF
Ruby:it's…
298Please respect copyright.PENANA4ASQohsVVO
Fang:Right here.
298Please respect copyright.PENANA1leQlXhXf5
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAsHKNC4t6I0
Ruby: How…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAn1UK6AmdIG
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAXhR3vgzzQo
Ruby: Why?
298Please respect copyright.PENANA4mntiTWVPO
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
298Please respect copyright.PENANA8aPOvcKQBU
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
298Please respect copyright.PENANAfknoG5bTv2
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAiRn4ygTSok
Fang:Why not?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAJxplM8NvUD
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
298Please respect copyright.PENANASbTPcqIrGY
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAvCzc3pTGds
Ruby Pov:
298Please respect copyright.PENANA9ILdW9O7sz
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAxJRxvN9Dzi
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAgGN6XP4KPg
I…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAbLDsx1NaC9
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAex9kEnNnVj
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAgAgaycyLBq
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAj7h0nIrks0
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAYOnVUZTnbD
What is he gonna say?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAzmvRbxQpUP
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAXRIPgU5Bjr
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
298Please respect copyright.PENANAdd9jodcr1M
Ruby:...
298Please respect copyright.PENANAZc2UZlMucf
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.
298Please respect copyright.PENANATFhIgMbha8
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
298Please respect copyright.PENANAdby3phuWAo
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…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAakeQIMAGJX
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…
298Please respect copyright.PENANAdROobpsYfq
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
298Please respect copyright.PENANA21RnhF8XfF
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…
