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!
371Please respect copyright.PENANAw5Chhvoiim
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAILVQPU1wRY
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
371Please respect copyright.PENANA4EhZklkuOl
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANA6lEfcvDL1a
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
371Please respect copyright.PENANARAskhGl9mT
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAcT1dzz79h3
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…
371Please respect copyright.PENANApplSWucO3M
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANApOJYVzZQ1e
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAUgWfKsBY4V
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAqVyRqEuefa
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAkIsWpMYVIW
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAecU62oBnjh
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAiTbnbufqKp
???:Sorry…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAoK2ygybgDm
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAl9LmLLXh8I
???:I saw everything…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAQI7xFIjHpX
He confirmed my suspicion.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAKDvmUZZyc7
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAXM4xkKMVdG
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
371Please respect copyright.PENANA6HDYp8hnPW
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAL3AqRKJmbD
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
371Please respect copyright.PENANA415SP0SDFa
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?
371Please respect copyright.PENANA5MARpLagdU
Confusion easily visible on her face.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAfS08GO7neu
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAlaUkUknjsS
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAFWZcekZL4a
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAkv9qTzwgE5
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAWYi1Et8qNs
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
371Please respect copyright.PENANA0sVznyVkmD
She was obviously startled by that remark.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAY6Vzu6a9tq
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
371Please respect copyright.PENANADySzzg0647
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
371Please respect copyright.PENANA7gCuM2XTHH
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAErn3SIt44X
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
371Please respect copyright.PENANAcMzBiUhm4u
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAbwhgKpRiZE
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAl2OtGCut08
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAISjXYRNphi
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAcxBAAcuIda
Ruby:it's…
371Please respect copyright.PENANA0e22ONb3V2
Fang:Right here.
371Please respect copyright.PENANA2FDwtaK79H
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAUdR3jrsKvL
Ruby: How…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAzUt2rlNguU
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAkFiBRFf6C2
Ruby: Why?
371Please respect copyright.PENANA420dzNphiX
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAm3ysGkmhjF
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
371Please respect copyright.PENANAPGBfSz3bmG
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAm3HB2Fz2MZ
Fang:Why not?
371Please respect copyright.PENANArq6o9NXHRy
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
371Please respect copyright.PENANALIRxkXItG9
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAKT14d0INfT
Ruby Pov:
371Please respect copyright.PENANA9OvVbCywqS
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAWnozJ0BA9u
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAwGCr6zdkzg
I…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAIQf6ztJljF
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAM4zJFZyUYW
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAC4ykRfCSkT
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
371Please respect copyright.PENANA9t0sGlQOgL
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAEWe7hxAShd
What is he gonna say?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAqD8fI995al
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
371Please respect copyright.PENANANnQa5fNonK
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAetKARBRKKy
Ruby:...
371Please respect copyright.PENANAZDSO5XGKOz
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.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAluvm7YUmKM
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
371Please respect copyright.PENANAxBxHod7XPs
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…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAwJwaQ2MSDs
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…
371Please respect copyright.PENANAuSbOMC7wHM
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
371Please respect copyright.PENANAwceDwWMtME
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…
