She changed so much.

Her baby girl Rubes changed so dang much.

A year ago, she was just a good child who had a few... screws loose on the topic of cookies. She just wanted to be a Huntress who helped others from Grimm and criminals. Ruby Rose was a precious sister to her.

And even now, she was a precious sister, but she changed so much.

She walked around with a baseball bat, chewing on a cookie-flavored cigarette as she bragged about some battle at Vacuo. She bragged, mocked, talked trash like it was her primary language. Yang Xiao Long concluded that she had done something bad enough to cause such a tragedy.

Baby Rose was a baby no more. She was now Babe Rubes, a girl with too many ambitions and too little love.

No longer did she wear her pretty little dress. She was too ham to wear dresses. Instead, she wore nothing but a bath towel. Even the daring Yang found the both towel fashion to be far too daring to be usable in the public. Rubes carelessly flashed herself to vomit boy, who nearly got his eyes cut off by Pyrrha for no justified reason. Rubes carelessly slapped Nora and made her cry. Rubes burnt Blake's (porn) Ninjas of Love books for not giving her dog food.

What did she do? What did Yang possibly do to make Ruby turn into Rubes?

She would ask money to strangers around her, and if they did not comply, she would beat them and smash them away like a baseball, getting homeruns on multiple occasions. S-She would even go out as far to go sleep with people of the opposite gender!

Yang felt horrified, and as she crossed paths with Babe Rubes, she was overwhelmed by the sorrow of being unable to protect her sister. The sight of Babe Rubes grinning as she made inappropriate gestures at her utterly terrified her.

For she was not Baby Rose, but Babe Rubes.

And Babe Rubes was-


"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

"AGHHHHHHH! Yang, what's wrong?!"

At the sound of Yang suddenly screaming her way up from her bed, Weiss Schnee jumped off her bed out of surprise and proceeded to roll in pain. Blake spazzed out momentarily, and Yang's sister, Ruby Rose, worriedly left her bed and walked up to the blonde brawler.

"What's wrong, Yang?"

"...R..b.y.."

"Huh?"

Suddenly, the blonde brawler hugged the life out of her sister as she bawled, "Don't you ever walk around beating people up with a towel on!"

"A-And why would I do that, sis?!"

Yang pulled herself away from Ruby, who gave her an incredulous look. It was not often that Ruby seemed more mature than Yang, but... it happens.

"Just... give me a hug, Rubes."

"...? A hug?" Ruby chirped, suddenly happy at the mention of hugs. "Well, okay, Yang! I don't know what made you feel sad, but I'll do whatever I can to make you feel better!"

At that statement, Yang bawled even more. The sight of her sister smiling brightly and approaching her with open arms touched her heart.

As the two sisters hugged each other within a matter of seconds, Weiss screamed something about stepping on Myrtenaster.
