Hello everyone!
I've decided to start another fanfic. This one is based on Volume 4 and focuses mainly on how Ruby Rose feels after everything that has happened. Her sister lost her arm, Beacon fell, and Pyrrha died. This story also shows what Ruby writes in her diary about how she feels about everything that happened.
Anyway, off to the story!
Hope you all enjoy it!
--Prologue--
It was another great day at Beacon Academy. The much anticipated VYTAL Festival was finally happening. Ruby was watching happily as Pyrrha was going up against Penny, Ruby's friend.
However, something happened. Suddenly, Penny was dead, and Ruby was just watching in horror as Penny lay on the ground, torn to pieces, wires protruding from every peice of her, sparking.
That night, Pyrrha was nowhere to be seen, neither was Jaune. Weiss' Scroll buzzed.
"Jaune? Where are you?" Weiss said.
"It doesn't matter!" Jaune screamed into the Scroll. "You have to save her!" The blonde screamed, fear in his voice."
"Jaune? What are you talking about? Where are you?" Weiss asked. "You have to save Pyrrha! She's going after that woman, at the tower! She doesn't stand a chance!"
"Jaune?"
Jaune screamed as he threw his Scroll onto the ground. "Please..."
Ruby and Weiss ran to the tower.
Ruby used Weiss' glyphs to run up the side of Beacon's CCT Tower.
She was shocked. Pyrrha was on her knees, an arrow protruding from her ankle.
A tall woman with black hair covering half her face and trailing down her left shoulder, and wearing a red dress with glowing yellow patterns, materialized a bow and arrow out of thin air.
Ruby froze.
She shot Pyrrha in the chest, Pyrrha gasping softly as the woman put her hand on Pyrrha's head, taking her circlet and turning Pyrrha into a brilliant golden colour.
Ashes started scattering into the air.
Pyrrha was gone.
--Chapter One: Never Forgotten--
"Do you believe in destiny?"
"Yes."
"Pyrrha!"
Ruby Rose woke up with a jump and a gasp. She looked around to see Nora and Ren fast asleep around the dying campfire.
"Jaune..." Ruby heard a familiar voice faintly say, not too far away. Ruby got up and saw a few fireflies glowing beautiful white colours before making their light fade.
She found a clearing in the forest and saw Jaune, shield unfolded and sword drawn. She half hid behind a tree and watched what Jaune was doing. She heard Pyrrha's voice again.
Jaune was watching the training video that Pyrrha had made for him.
"Don't forget to keep your front foot forward." Pyrrha said. "Ready?" Jaune was standing in the stance that Pyrrha told him to. He gripped his new sword tightly and closed his eyes. "Go!"
Jaune swung the heavy sword with an emotional battle cry.
"Again," Pyrrha said. Jaune swung the sword and let out another cry.
"And again,"Jaune did the same thing again and flattened the grass.
"Now, assuming you aren't cheating," Pyrrha laughed and smiled. "We can take a break."
Jaune closed his eyes and panted a little after the training session, then opened his eyes and turned to the Scroll resting on a tree stump.
"I know this can be frustrating. It can feel like so much work to progress such a small amount. You've grown so much since we started training." Pyrrha looked away, then flitted her eyes to Jaune. "Jaune," Pyrrha turned to face him again. "I...I...I want you to know, that I am just happy to be a part of your life." She placed her hands over her heart. "I'll always be here for you Jaune." Jaune had a depressed look on his face as the video rewinded and started playing from the beginning. Jaune repeated everything he did in the previous training session.
Ruby almost started crying because she too missed Pyrrha, and she could see the depression that Jaune was going through because he lost the love of his life.
Ruby went back to her sleeping bag and took out a brown book with a picture of Zwei, Yang, Taiyang and her stuck on the front of it. It was her diary. She took out a black and gold calligraphy pen and started writing.
Dear Diary,
Its been a long time since Beacon fell. I miss dad. I miss the rest of my team. Weiss, Blake, and most of all, Yang. Now Ren, Nora, Jaune and me are heading to Haven.
Its been hard on all of us. And I'm not just talking about the monsters we've fought out here. We lost our best friend. We lost Pyrrha. Its been hard on everyone, especially Jaune.
He loved her. Now he's depressed and that makes me feel even more guilty. It just reminds me that I got to the top of Beacon Tower too late. It just reminds me of how she got shot in the ankle, then the heart, and turned into ashes.
Jaune was watching a training video of her earlier. It made me feel even more guilty. It made him more depressed. I nearly broke down seeing Jaune like that.
I just don't know if we can take anymore of this. If we lose another person, we're all gonna fall apart. We just wish that we would stop losing people. First Penny, then Pyrrha.
We will never forget them.
Until next time,
Ruby Rose.
--End of Chapter One--
Hello again!
So, in my opinion, that was pretty depressing. If I could, I would just go give everyone there hugs, especially Jaune.
