Yo, this is a sequel to Master Torchwick. It is recommended that you read that story first but, if you choose not to then it's okay … I think. I hope… I will be doing my best to summarize what happened in that story into this story. Anyways, enjoy.

Disclaimer: I do not own RWBY

The rain fell from the sky, splashing Ruby's face. At least the rain would hide the fact that she'd been crying. She couldn't help it, she'd been crying since the accident happened. Any moment alone was a moment to cry without being caught.

Each drop of rain was another little dagger finding its way into her skin to never be removed. The assembly wasn't mandatory for other students, only for her was it mandatory. She was, after all, the guest of honor.

The suffocating heat of the auditorium made it hard for her to breathe. Every fiber of her body wanted to shut down but that couldn't happen. She'd forced her feet up onto the stage where she'd join her team standing in order. Her whole team was a guest of honor but that didn't matter as Ruby was the one who was mainly focused on. Despite the fact that they knew Ruby would be the most loved person in the room each girl still buzzed with excitement. All but Ruby, who was torn between good and evil.

From her spot on stage she could see all the students and common folk in attendance of the assembly. Almost everyone in Vale must have shown up, it didn't help that camera men covered any free space in the auditorium. Weiss was about to speak to her teammate when the screech of only microphone in the room interrupted her. Each girl followed orders as were given earlier. Shut up, stand straight, arms behind back and most importantly smile. In the words of Mr. Ironwood himself: 'Look like a solider who's proud for what they've done'. If Ruby could be proud for what she'd done.

"Today we are here to celebrate what happened yesterday in the southwest of Vale," Ironwood began, smiling proud the whole time "Miss. Rose has helped us bring to justice one of the most wanted criminals in all the kingdoms. Roman Torchwick," Ruby felt her heart fall into the pits of her stomach. This was happening, it wasn't a nightmare she could wake up from, it was actually happening. "We will interrogate him as needed, he will most likely be executed at the end of the month. This is our only statement for today. Thank you all for listening. Most of all thank Miss Rose for bring him to justice. Thank you."

Ruby couldn't handle it all. Roman was captured, it was all her fault.

~O~

The speech was short, causing people to leave in a cloud of confusion. Execution, because of Ruby. Tears dared to fall from her eyes once again, but she didn't allow them to.

One month, that's all he had to live. One month of being trapped in a cell and interrogated almost every day for the rest of his short life. Max security. Only those authorized would be able to visit. Ruby wasn't authorized other than a onetime visit to give him her final words. 'So he can know all the trouble he's caused you Ruby. One visit when he dies he can remember that it was you who captured him…' The general had said. The man was scary she had to admit.

One visit to rub it in his face, that's all she had. She didn't want to waste her one visit on rubbing it in his face. She wanted to use it to kiss him one last time or make a plan to break him out. It wouldn't matter, it was max security. The best of the best.

A hand on her shoulder caused her to jump, it squeezed her so tightly that it hurt. She looked up and was shocked to see it was Ozpin who was squeezing her shoulder so tightly.

"Ruby, can I please talk to you in my office?" He didn't look down at her, he looked straight ahead into the nothing of the empty auditorium.

"Of course, Headmaster…" Her own voice was a shock to her. It came out low and shaky but that didn't matter. Since yesterday she'd tried so hard not to talk. If she talked too much information might come out of her mouth. Information she'd hidden for almost two years now.

~O~

By now time must have been only an illusion. It didn't seem to keep itself anymore at least, not to Ruby. The ride up to Ozpin's office was longer then she'd remembered, even after her first time on the way up when she'd pushed all the buttons. Now Ozpin was next to her, stiff as a rock. She was sure she'd looked similar as well, it was a challenge to even get her body to move.

The elevator came to a sudden stop. Both bodies moved out of the little medal room and to the safety of Ozpins desk. He locked the door behind them, no one could get in or out. He gestured for Ruby to take a seat and he made himself comfortable in his own chair. He folded his hands, alone in this room he seemed to calm down a little.

"I want you to know that whatever is said in here is between you and me. I'm not recording this or anything like that. I just want the truth and only the truth. I won't tell anyone. I promise and I never go back on my promises Ruby." She couldn't manage anything more than a head nod. A small smile appear on his face. "Okay then. Ruby is there anything you want to tell me? I won't judge you…" Ruby recognized the game they were playing. Her teammates always played it with her. Ask a question, make it vague enough for the victim to answer the question. Sadly for Ozpin, she knew how to play that game too.

"What do you mean?" She asked, she wanted to smirk at him but that wasn't the best thing for her now.

"I mean… what really happened to you when you disappeared two years ago? Why did you ask me about that Neo girl? Why do you leave campus almost every day? Things like that. I don't think you meant to capture Torchwick. I think you meant to save him or maybe something else. I have this little hunch, that you and Roman have been working tougher or something like that. Now you can tell me the truth, we can leave this alone or I can become course and start coming to my own conclusions. Ruby, I'm doing this to save you." Ozpin said the words without blinking, which came bitterly from his mouth. It was no longer a question, it was a threat and they both knew it. Wrong game, this wasn't even a game anymore.

"So Ozpin, you want to know when my life fell apart? How do I know that you won't tell my secret to anyone and everyone?" She could almost laugh at the idea that the first person she was going to tell her secret to was Ozpin. Laughing wouldn't be good, it'd only make things worse for her. Ozpins shoulders grew tighter, he was getting annoyed with Ruby's lack of participation.

"Ruby… I'm trying to help you here. It's best if you tell me first, I know you've broken the law more than once in the last two years. I have access to all of the security cameras in this kingdom, I have hours of you breaking the law. I believe I know what's going on, It's best if you tell me what's going on first." Ozpin began to grin. It was funny how much he had changed in two years, each word came out as a threat.

"If you believe you know then why not say it? I'll tell you if you're right or not. How does that sound?" Ozpin let out a heavy sigh.

"Very well…. I believe you and Roman have been in a romantic relationship of sorts?"

If it was even possible, he body became even heavier at that moment. He knew. Her secret had been blown.

Hey Guys! :D

Quite a while ago I had this idea and BAM sequel! LOL! Hope you guys enjoy this, it's going to be really different then Master Torchwick but going to rely heavily on what happened in that story + some things that I'm going to put in that happened in between the two years. I can't say for sure if this is going to be a happy ending or not … I'm yet to decide! Also, I'm going to make some characters have relationship that aren't canon (or at least not yet stated) and some characters are going to be a little darker then what is canon (AKA Ruby and/or Ozpin and/or any other characters). I also feel the need to say that updates will be slower than they were last time (Sorry /.\) Anyways, I'll shut up now.

WOOT! Any mistakes? Let me know please so I can fix them for the good of all readers! Please review, I love feedback! (Good or bad)

PS:
I planned to post this after I finished my other story but then I said screw it. So when I say the updating is going to be weird I mean it's going to be WEIRD. (More then likely I'll favor this story over the other but stilllllllllll...) Also if anyone can think of a better name and wants to suggest it please go ahead. If I like a suggestion I might use it. Thanks...

Now I'll shut up XD promise
