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!
344Please respect copyright.PENANAMftYx50ru5
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAMovYw1y9VP
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
344Please respect copyright.PENANA4KSR558Dyj
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANATIVhiThaYx
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAqqUszXt6qZ
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAcPmY18JSzg
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…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAiSaztkUVaI
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAO0VyBeBIJY
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAtQtywDx3fG
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAbDWfiiQYZr
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
344Please respect copyright.PENANA6MgJBi9KsL
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
344Please respect copyright.PENANA3OIn9NdUnf
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANA0hgACYYzWd
???:Sorry…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAUmwTaZD7Ry
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAinRKWzVbxk
???:I saw everything…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAco2wZLJrU1
He confirmed my suspicion.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAIXWip7cx77
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAeSvYZBcn4C
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAodSQCKOMcH
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAVO05I4JBtQ
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
344Please respect copyright.PENANA6UGnNWoblL
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?
344Please respect copyright.PENANA0DTq84F1SU
Confusion easily visible on her face.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAbY5kFSRXpX
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAPYKszAHcCR
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAbMhTF50TqS
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAxKkapy0EbW
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAnAELqfWgr9
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAqle094dWvs
She was obviously startled by that remark.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAXUN9a2DM6G
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
344Please respect copyright.PENANA5dDLRnowQj
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAla8pXjdjwW
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAc08nQyAAmr
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
344Please respect copyright.PENANAMQqWnOFnb5
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
344Please respect copyright.PENANACqmkN0uHru
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
344Please respect copyright.PENANANVs7lXaef4
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAGy6kYZiUva
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAIvFAo0a9o5
Ruby:it's…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAWAGqcAPWmR
Fang:Right here.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAqll1pW4XP4
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAAWCE9BM2EA
Ruby: How…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAPe47w3EwIB
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAWk9i8jmr9T
Ruby: Why?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAJZiANLROdr
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAPKUQGtpX1h
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
344Please respect copyright.PENANAsnxolJNqZN
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
344Please respect copyright.PENANA1o28JB9Fnh
Fang:Why not?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAcKXkIdR3mJ
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAKQK0ExCCwf
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAVctyTcg0Qe
Ruby Pov:
344Please respect copyright.PENANAW5mk4QT17E
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAXYPAYK8R4K
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANALzR0Bcqcd0
I…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAdFT306CIhb
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
344Please respect copyright.PENANA8sc6VwSXLZ
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
344Please respect copyright.PENANANBVaf00pst
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAbDz3PQCrZj
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAKQQmtPQkLz
What is he gonna say?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAVoIXDxdQCE
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
344Please respect copyright.PENANA9CVGtWGTu9
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAWBxFwPTRKB
Ruby:...
344Please respect copyright.PENANAyDI6ermsRq
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.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAcohuwWPRUC
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
344Please respect copyright.PENANAwLC3lOtXiQ
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…
344Please respect copyright.PENANARJXGzeTaBG
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…
344Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4G8EwabnH
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
344Please respect copyright.PENANAFhXINzTBvR
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…
