I want to test a different style of writing, so I wrote this drabble without planning ahead (I always plan my stories). Let's see what I can do. My target is to make it look like you can actually picture it happening and kind of like those AMVs on YouTube.
This piece was written while listening to the OP of 'Ajin' anime. I highly recommend listening to it while reading this (The TV length)
Title taken from that song.
(It is just my personal preference, but I imagined them wearing the vol 4 outfits in this story. It suits them better.)
I do not own both RWBY and Ajin.

Can You Sleep At Night?
The shattered moon accompanied the galaxy of stars in the night sky of Remnant.
The ruins of Vale stood there unmoved; the creatures of Grimm marking their territory as they wandered around, looking for any sign of survivors since the mass destruction that took place eight months ago.
A figure was lying on her back on the roof of an abandoned apartment, trying to reach out to the moon with her only arm.
She closed her eyes when she felt another presence that was too familiar not to be recognized. The shadow moved nearer to the lying blonde and stole a peck on her forehead.

A pair of graceful legs paced through the ruins, ignoring the growls and glares coming from the Beowolves around. The grey colored heels she was wearing made beautiful sounds as the owner walked straight towards the tallest building in the ruins.

The sound of an airship slashed through the tranquility of the night as it stopped just above the highest apartment with two figures, lying and kneeling there respectively.
Under the moonlight she stood inside the airship and smirked, looking beneath where her teammates were located at.
With a grunt she jumped from the vehicle, hands holding a giant red scythe as she landed precisely in front of an ivory haired girl.
She smiled at the girl smugly while tilting her head as the red hood that was covering her head fell off.
The ivory haired girl turned around when the Grimm started to gather around them, looking at them as if they were delicious food.
The girl in red hood nodded as she stabbed her scythe on the ground with a force that one could never have imagined coming from a petite girl like her, then she made a beckoning hand gesture with her right index finger and smirked.
The Beowolves looked at each other before charging at the duo simultaneously.
But they grabbed nothing when they reached the spot that the red and the white were previously at.
The moonlight illuminated both of them as they jumped mid-air; their body was moving with such divine grace that no one could ever rival. With a gravity-shot from the scythe the girl in red hood spun around as she made a tornado of furious cuts that killed five Beowolves upon landing.
The Dust-chamber in the white haired girl's rapier spun and stopped at blue.
A white colored Glyph appeared at her legs when she was upside down, getting ready to launch herself like a bullet.
All the Beowolves were frozen the moment she made contact with the ground – and her partner took this chance to burst into rose petals again.
Soon the layer of ice disappeared as all the monsters disintegrated at the same time.
The girl in red hood gave the other girl a high five.

This is just a test piece. Please tell me what you think of this.
And yes this is post-season 3.
Or you can see this as my own version of volume 4 trailer.
Thank you for reading.
