Hope you enjoy chapter one, I do not own RWBY or any of it's characters.


Detective Weiss Schnee, was the best police officer the Vale precinct has ever seen. At least that was she thought, since every single case that she had taken up she had completed with enough evidence that no defence lawyer would ever take the cases that she had worked on, and for the first time in her five years in the VPD (Vale Police Department) she was late. She had had the worst morning ever, first her alarm didn't wake her up, and then her car refused to work. So by the time she got into big brown building that was the VPD, she was in a horrible mood, and to make matters worse today she was getting her new partner.

The entrance to the VPD was a large room, Weiss looked to her right, looking at the wall of officers killed in the job. "I work much better alone." Weiss thought. The white haired girl suddenly remembered her previous partner, Jack, and she shuddered at the thought of him. "Well anything could be better then him." Weiss mummered to herself, right as she bumped into someone. Coffee spilled onto her white blouse it appeared the girl that she had bumped into had been holding a cup of coffee. She had silver eyes, short brown hair that was tipped with red, she was also wearing an old red hat, that was tattered and even ripped in some places. She wore a blue jacket over a red shirt, and jeans, the back of the jacket had the letters VPD written in large yellow letters.

"I am so sorry!" The girl said.

"What are you doing! You idiot, you know how much this costs! Did you know that the civlian entrance is that way!" Weiss basically screamed.

"Hey, I said I was sorry princess, and just so you know I work here now." The brunette responded angrily.

"Fine. Just leave me alone." Weiss said as she headed back to her office. She quickly looked over the clothes she was wearing. She was wearing a white blouse, that now had a large stain. with an elegant blue blazer, and some formal black heels all topped off with a pair of black heels.


Weiss was working in her small cubicle when her boss called her to his office so that he could introduce her to her knew partner. Weiss walked into his office with a large scowl, it only grew large as she made eye contact with the silver eyed girl she met earlier.

"Weiss, I want you to meet, Ruby Rose. Your new partner." Her boss said as Weiss closed the door behind her.

"You!" Weiss said.

"Ya, me, you have a problem with this." Ruby responded, looking Weiss right in the eyes.

" I do." Weiss said, about to speak with her boss.

"Well, you can sort all of this out, when you are out of my office. But, you are partners and there is nothing that you both would be able to say that would make me break you too up. So if you want to fight, do so out of my office." their boss said as he leaned backwards on his chair.

Weiss and Ruby left the office, slowly closing the door behind them. "If you just stay out of my way. We shall be fine, you dolt." Weiss snarled.

"Done deal, Partner." Ruby spat out.

Weiss suddenly felt her phone ring, she reached into her blazer pocket and pulled it out. On the screen there was a text with an address written on it. "Well we got a case. So follow me to the car." Weiss began to walk out of the VPD, with Ruby at her heels.


They entered a small building, in the main room there was a man kneeling next to a body. "Okay, well Ren what do we have now?" Weiss asked as she walked up to a man with semi long hair, he was kneeling down right next to a body of a woman, with blonde hair, she was dressed in her underpants and it appeared that her bust was far to big to be natural. Her eyes were glazed and there was an extremly disgusting stench coming from the body.

Ruby gagged, "Well if you can't deal with the smell, you sure chose the wrong job." Weiss said.

"Oh shut up." Ruby said, as she got acustomed to smell.

"Well if you two are done aurguing, can I tell you what we have here." Ren said pointing at the dead body. "Oh, am Ren, by the way. Medical examiner. You are probably Weiss' new partner."

"ya, I am. My name is Ruby. Nice to meet you." Ruby said with a smile.

"Well back to it, I guess. So our victim died of blood loss, since her carotid artery has been cut. I suspect that the cut was done with a hunting knife. " Ren said as he pointed toward the large cut in the woman's throat.

"Do we know who the victim is?" Weiss asked.

"You underestimate me Weiss." Ren said, handing Weiss a small tablet, with a girls name on it and her picture as well as her information.

"Jessica Parson" Ruby said, as she looked over Weiss' shoulder. "She's a prostitute?"

"Yes, it appears she is. Which brings me to my next point." Ren said as he carefully turned the girl over, reaviling the word, LUST, cut into the victims back. "As you can see here. This cut was made before death, since there was bleeding."

"Do we know where she lives?" Weiss asked.

"Yeah, it should be on her information." Ren said as he started examining the body again.

"Okay, great will go check it out" Weiss said as she began to walk back toward the door. "Anything else?"

"No, but I will know more when I do a full autopsy." Ren said, as Weiss opened the door and left.

"Oh, Ruby." Ren said.

"Yes." Ruby called back, begining to follow Weiss.

"Good luck, she can be a handful." Ren said, smiling.

"Yeah, tell me about." Ruby said as she closed the door behind her.


Thirty minutes later.

Ruby and Weiss were strolling down the streets of Vale in their car, both of them did not say a word, only shooting angry looks at each other every few minutes. Ruby chose to break the silence, "What do you think lust means."

"How can you not know what Lust means you dolt." Weiss said angrily.

"No, I know what it means princess. I meant why do you think our killer cut it into the victim." Ruby replied, looking at the landscape whirl by her.

"Oh, I don't know, and if I don't then you probably don't well." Weiss said with a smirk.

"You are not perfect, you know." Ruby said.

"I know I am not perfect, not yet. But, I am still leagues better then you." Weiss said, as she pulled over into a small two story house, she got out of the car and closed the door behind her.

Ruby let out a furstrated groan, before leaving the car and slamming the door shut. "out of all the people in the VPD, it had to be her." She thought as she walked up to where Weiss was.

"Okay, lets go. Weiss said as she tried to open the door. "Damn, it's locked."

Ruby was too busy looking at the rocks of the buildings small garden to notice. "What are you doing!" Weiss said.

Ruby ignored her and after a few seconds she yelled in triumph, bending over and picking up a rock. Weiss realized that the rock was made out of plastic. Ruby flipped the rock over and there was a small lid. She opened it and inside there was a key.

Ruby walked proudly to the door and unlocked the door. She opened it, as she looked inside she saw a plant pot laying on the ground turned over dirt littered the floor. Ruby pulled out her gun, Weiss did the same. Slowly they walked in, making sure to check every corner for anyone. After scanning the relatively little house, Ruby yelled "Clear." putting her weapon back into her holster.

Followed by Weiss also yelled "clear." from upstairs. A few seconds later, "Ruby, I got something."

Ruby ran up the stairs and entered a small bedroom, the covers were tossed and turned, the mirrior in front of the bed was broken and sharp shards littered the ground. On the wall to the left of the bed the word Lust was written in a red substance that looked suspiously like blood. but this time the word was crossed out.

"I believe that the killer came-" Ruby started.

"Shut up, and let the professionals do the thinking." Weiss said.

"Fine, I guess I'll call forensics." Ruby huffed as she began to walk out.

Weiss looked at the bed and the broken shards of glass on the ground. A scene began to play in her mind.

The victim, Jessica, was sleeping, when someone burst into the room probably with a weapon. He grabbed her and she struggled breaking the mirror in the struggle, Weiss moved toward the stair way that led downstairs, she saw that one of the wooden bars that held the railing up, was cracked. The scene in her mind devolped, this time seeing the victim was being dragged down the stairs, by an unknown indivdual. Jessica kicked out and broke one of the colums that held the staircase railing up.

Weiss walked down the stairs, and walked out side. She knelt down by the drive way and saw some tire marks on the paved road. She took out her scroll and took a picture. Ruby walked behind her. "Whatcha doing?" She asked.

Weiss jolted up, "Never sneak up on me again you dolt!"

Ruby shrank back a little. "I didn't mean to scare you. Am sorry."

"You should be, now lets go back to the office, while we wait for csu to process this scene." Weiss said, as she started heading back to her black mustang.

"Can I drive?" Ruby asked hopefully.

"No." Weiss deadpanned.


Three days later.

Ruby groaned as she leaned back on her office chair, she had tried finding out more about the victim but kept hitting dead ends. Right then a blonde mass of hair appeared from above Ruby's cubicle.

"Hey, your new. What's your name?" The blonde haired boy said. He had striking blue eyes, and wore a white button down shirt with a blazer.

"Ruby, and you are?" Ruby asked, "Wow, he has blue eyes, although they aren't like Weiss' hers are more cold and stern."

His response took her out of her thoughts. "Names is Jaune Arc, short, sweet. The ladies love it." He winked at the end.

Ruby just raised an eyebrow.

"Well they will, just watch." Jaune said.

"Jaune! Are you distracting my dolt of a partner. She need all her focus, to do the smallest amount of work. So please buzz off." Weiss said, seemingly appearing out of nowhere behind Jaune.

"Okay, sorry." Jaune said, in a small voice. He promptly returned back to work.

"And you." Weiss said to Ruby.

"what?" Ruby responded.

"Did you find anything?" Weiss asked.

"Nope, our victim kept things close to the chest. No social media, and no indictators on her body telling us to which prostitution ring she belonged to." Ruby said.

"Well, then if you get off you ass, we can go down to autopsy. Ren just said that he finished." Weiss said already moving to the elevator.

Ruby quickly got off her chair and walked towards the elevator.

A short, and deathly quiet elevator ride they had arrived to the morgue. The morgue was dimly lit and only had three metal tables with drains, The middle one was currently held the same girl that they had seen earlier, althought she was much more pale and she had a small towel covering her. To the far right of the room there was a small desk, where Ren was currently sitting in he was hunched over and appeared to be really distracted by something.

Weiss walked up beside him and leaned down to see what was Ren staring at. Ren jumped up and let out a small scream. "Don't scare me like that. Do you know how creepy it is to work with dead bodies in a basement the whole day!"

"Sorry, Well what have you got?" Weiss said with a smirk.

"Well, I was correct with the cause of death she bleed out. Also I looked through her stomach contents and found this." Ren said as he pulled out a small metalic cylinder.

Weiss carefully grabbed a tissue from the desk and took it from Ren making sure not to get any fingerprints on the metal container. She began to fiddle with it, and suddenly there was a small hiss and the cylinder popped in half revealing a small piece of curled up paper.

Tobias Becket

"What does it say?" Ruby asked trying to get over Weiss shoulder to see what it said.

"It just says a name?" Weiss said extremely puzzled she turned the paper over, only finding the other side if the paper to be blank.

"Well thats strange." Weiss said placing the paper and the container into an evidence bag. "Well anything else, Ren?"

"No, that's all I found. I sent some of the other things to forensics. They should be finished soon as well."

Suddenly Weiss felt a small ping in her pocket and took out her phone. "Umm, Ruby we got to go."

" Why? Don't we have to go to forensics first?" Ruby asked confused.

Right then Ren also received a message on his phone, "It appears I have been summoned as well. I shall meet you over there." he said.

"Wait what has happened?" Ruby said getting kind of annoyed.

"Another body happened." Weiss said as she began to walk to the elevator again. Ruby hurried after her.

"What do you mean another body?" Ruby asked as she barely made it into the elevator before the doors closed.

"Same mo, slit neck and words carved into the back." Weiss said, looking at the location of the murder.

"Do we know what words were carved into the victim?" Ruby asked as she glimpsed over Weiss shoulder to see the location.

"You know it is rude to look at someones phone without permission, right?" Weiss said as she turned off her phone before Ruby could get a good look at it. "And the message didn't say what words."

The rest of the elevator ride as well as the car ride to the crime scene was made with complete silence.


As soon as Weiss had arrived at the crime seen, she had gone up to the cop that was first at the scene and asked if there was any witnesses or anything captured on tape. The police officer, was of short stature, and had a big pot belly, he seemed tired with eye-bags underneath his eyes and he had a half lidded expression, he answered the question as lazy as a cow and he told Weiss that there had been no wittinesses or anything caught on tape. After that Weiss quickly dismissed him and crossed the yellow tape with Ruby.

They entered an small alley way, the alley way was so small that Ruby realized that no police patrol car could go through it. But, in the middle of the alley way laid what caught Ruby's attention. There laid an extremely fat man lying face down and the words Gluttony carved on his back. Both Weiss and Ruby began to look around for clues.

Ten minutes later they heard a familiar voice call out to them, "Ruby, Weiss, I got our victims I'D" Ren yelled.

Ruby who had been further up the alley way turned in surprised, "Wow, Ren when did you get here? I didn't notice you were here."

"Yeah I get that a lot." Ren said a little amused. "Well the victims name is Tobias Becket."

"Isn't that the same name on the.." Ruby began but Weiss interrupted her.

"yes, and is it The Tobias Becket?" Weiss asked.

"The very one." Ren said with a nod.

"Wait!" Ruby said as she finally understood who they were talking about. "The Tobias Becket, the head of the Becket crime family?"

"Yes, Ruby that is what we just said. So can you please stop making those annoying side comments of yours so I can do my job!" Weiss said with a huff.

"Sorry, but no one has seen him in years. I seriously doubt anybody could find him." Ruby said amazed.

"Oh, I bet one guy could." Ren said looking at Weiss, who went stiff.

"Who." Ruby asked suddenly curious.

Ren opened his mouth to speak, but Weiss coldly threatened him. "Ren, don't."

"Wait, who is he talking about?" Ruby asked looking at Weiss.

"My pervious partner." Weiss said through gritted teeth. "There I told you, now don't ask again!"

"Okay." Ruby said.

"Ren tell us what you find, now Ruby come with me." Weiss said as she started walking to her mustang.

"Oh, Weiss I have an idea." Ruby said as she caught up with Weiss.

"I don't want to hear it." Weiss said.

"Why not?"

"because your ideas are stupid." Weiss said.

Right then Ruby had had enough of Weiss, she grabbed Weiss by the shoulder and spun her around. "Okay, listen up Weiss! We are partners now and that means we help each other. So why don't you push away your god damn pride away for one second so you can hear my idea!" Ruby screamed.

Suddenly Weiss realized that she had been a complete and utter jerk to her partner. It is just hard for her after to have a partner after what had happened with her previous one. "Fine, let's hear your idea."

"Okay, so you know how Tobias was the top dog, right?" Ruby said.

"Just get to the point." Weiss said.

"Well, why don't we just go to the Becket crime family's house and talk to the second in command to see what he knows. Even though Tobias didn't live there it doesn't mean that his second in command doesn't know anything."

"And why do you think that they would talk to us?" Weiss asked. "They are criminals."

"I know that, but they probably want revenge for their dead boss, sooo I think they will talk to us. Also they are probably very confident, since we have never been able to put them away."

Weiss was just about to scoff and tell Ruby that that was a terrible idea but then she realized that it was not half bad. "Hey that was actually a good idea, lets go. Oh, and since I don't know where the house is, why don't you drive." The white haired detective threw the keys to her mustang to Ruby.

Ruby caught the keys and squealed with joy, she quickly got in the car and told Weiss to get in. A mistake that Weiss was soon gonna regret.


"Ruby! SLOW DOWN!" Weiss screamed as Ruby drifted into a street, only after crossing a red light.

"Oh, Weiss come on. I am barely pushing ninety." Ruby said. "You drive fast as well."

"Yeah, I drive fast, but this is suicide!" Weiss said before yelping as Ruby drifted again.

Ruby laughed and pushed her foot down on the accelerator.

One hundred, one hundred ten, one hundred twenty

"Ruby please slow down!" Weiss said as she saw the speed dial continue going up.

"Ugh, you are no fun." Ruby said as she slowed down. "Plus we're here any way."

The black mustang pulled up to a large white house by the docks, it had an ordinate fence made of black metal and a gold curvy B in the middle. The black mustang pulled up the the intercom, which Ruby promptly rang.

A deep voice answered, "What do you want."

"VDP, open the gates." Ruby said.

"Be right out."

A few minutes later a tall man with blond hair could be seen walking towards them, he stopped on the other side of the gate. "If you want to come in, I need to see a warrant."

"We just want to talk." Ruby said.

"No warrant, no entry." The blond man crossed his arms.

"Fine, I'll be back." Ruby said, pulling the car out.

"Great, now what, genius." Weiss huffed out.

"Just watch." Ruby said as she turned the car back to drive and bursted through the black metal gates.
