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!
178Please respect copyright.PENANAcPMBPhX40N
The Blonde Girl did a wide left hook smacking the Blackhaired Girl quiet.
178Please respect copyright.PENANARPYSxUuwbZ
Blonde Girl: SHUT UP RUBY!
178Please respect copyright.PENANAD1L2rjJxwR
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZQge8ZG0f
Ruby:Yang…please…stop…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAeQxMRHBXvo
Yang:Ruby, say one more word and I may just kill you…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAvaaoB6ltaS
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…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAQLsqEATQyU
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAUu6NlidumV
I deserve pain…I’m weak…worthless…maybe I should wait for a Grimm to kill me…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAgKm6oZp1q2
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAWKOsQtTOzz
Ruby:Who…Who’s there?
178Please respect copyright.PENANAzELJRNiWYp
???:Calm down, I'm an ally.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAcBssI3dQpb
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAuc88lv2576
???:Sorry…
178Please respect copyright.PENANA0g3zapZNod
His voice was filled with sympathy. Did he…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAb8JwYPMwMk
???:I saw everything…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAiAVoVaT2iW
He confirmed my suspicion.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAL1wiaJoQ2q
???:I am truly sorry I didn’t help…
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZnSfGHzk9
Ruby:It’s okay, I'm used to it…
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3Q0kjoPuiH
My voice trailed off as warmth enveloped my body, a huge weight was suddenly lifted off of me.
178Please respect copyright.PENANA7ehGiUv0CV
???:All done…Try opening your eyes.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAvhw3gcnzTb
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?
178Please respect copyright.PENANAh7fONWGjWv
Confusion easily visible on her face.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAOavQ3jlczx
Fang:Fang Twilight, you?
178Please respect copyright.PENANA5f2g2uRLqQ
Ruby:Ruby Rose…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAEpDQjbZwsm
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANA6CjZ0w8NKm
RubyDid you do all this…Is it your Semblance?
178Please respect copyright.PENANANHWRfV5RTL
Fang:I don’t know what a Semblance is, but that is something Ash can do way better than me at.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAG9ZXQapzQW
She was obviously startled by that remark.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAKstHyXaSGc
Ruby: You don’t know what a Semblance is?
178Please respect copyright.PENANATdKTQJuEIy
Fang nodded as he watched their surroundings just in case Yang returned. Ruby chuckled, obviously tickled by the remark.
178Please respect copyright.PENANA43VBYCoxz3
Ruby:A Semblance is like your own superpower; everyone has one.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAUMmvfyWyWI
Fang:Well where I come from we call that our Cores, but only a few of us have them..
178Please respect copyright.PENANA8TBN9KAECc
They stood there talking for a moment before Ruby crumbled to the ground causing Fang to leap back slightly.
178Please respect copyright.PENANA2Ch2iyc2uJ
Fang:Ruby…what’s wrong?
178Please respect copyright.PENANAmdsIys1t5X
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAesrjZqfSmz
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAUGL2yNw5gt
Ruby:it's…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAGsFyqBxog4
Fang:Right here.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAOg2VOhE15q
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAU5nELTFMnH
Ruby: How…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAQ70KXSmu6J
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANABoEhFgPDJE
Ruby: Why?
178Please respect copyright.PENANA45j1rD736z
Fang:(Confused) Why what?
178Please respect copyright.PENANAD7d3OazSaY
Ruby:(Yells) WHY DID YOU HELP ME!
178Please respect copyright.PENANAUygiHVOaKl
Fang was taken back by this sudden question.
178Please respect copyright.PENANANbH1rHSC6E
Fang:Why not?
178Please respect copyright.PENANA6AkFNPRVcR
Ruby:Because I’m worthless, a waste of space…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAR6W3rn0fO5
She started crying again, Fang just watched her…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAjmpEp8o5Bh
Ruby Pov:
178Please respect copyright.PENANA5aFmhqno7h
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAY2YympMzKj
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANAkvuKTLCJm1
I…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAKyD8sMgLo0
Wait, is he hugging me? He’s hugging me…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAXIc91BDDvD
Fang:Shhhh no need to cry…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAoZIrViz7Y8
He’s trying to comfort me? Why? He should just leave, wouldn’t it be better that way?
178Please respect copyright.PENANAjdDxWl5bhZ
Fang:I don’t know you like that but from what I’ve seen…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAyxirYTahQv
What is he gonna say?
178Please respect copyright.PENANADvMySzCK6G
Fang:You’re probably one of the most strong willed people I’ve ever seen.
178Please respect copyright.PENANALKDsCCwgEs
Huh? He thinks I’m strong?
178Please respect copyright.PENANAeDHF7gVnTM
Ruby:...
178Please respect copyright.PENANA0nGWOUb6av
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.
178Please respect copyright.PENANATARBvDCQ9u
Fang:It’s alright let it out.
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3OPkJDs2cQ
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…
178Please respect copyright.PENANAhVnL9wOeAQ
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…
178Please respect copyright.PENANA3C504m6mrI
Fang:(Thought) What am I thinking? Do I like broken girls?
178Please respect copyright.PENANAm5Mq7oKVTi
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…
