A.N.: Just a quick warning, this is the first major thing that I ever write in English and my first ever fanfic. This was inspired by a prompt on the RWBY subreddit, that asked us what would a RWBY trailer that we would like to see would look like, and I really wanted to get back into writing so... Here I go.

Each chapter will be written with a different style, and/or perspective. You'll see as you read along, don't worry.


A sob was heard softly in the woods. You could hear them if you listened closely, it was almost covered by the sound of the wind. However, something heard it and it dashed in the way of the cries, running through the forest, jumping over rocks and sliding under downed trees.

The girl turned around and gasped as something stopped right in front of her and she falls down, sitting on the ground. The form just smiles at her and it stands down, getting on one knee and putting her hand forward, laughing softly

"Don't worry little girl, I'm not going to hurt you."

The small girl looks at the form and she blushes when she realises it's just another woman. It's not a monster, only someone that wants to help. She smiles and grab the hand in front of her and she gets up with the other woman, stroking her clothes to remove some of the dirt.

"so, tell me… Why are you here little girl? It's dangerous to be alone in the woods alone and you should know it."

"Yes, but… I was with my mommy, and then I saw this bird and… And now I lost my mommy"

The smile slowly disappeared from the woman's face, she simply rubbed the younger girl's head, ruffling her hair, which earned her a pout coming from the child.

"I've also lost a lot of people, but… Don't worry sweetie. I'll help you get back home and you'll be able to see your mommy again."

The smile came backto her face, but if you looked closely, you could see it was fake, it was forced to reassure the little girl.

"Are you from the south or the west?"

And thus they slowly walked, the younger girl talking on and on about what the wonders of the forest that she was seeing, while the other woman walked alongside her. She didn't talk as much, but she was smiling and she told her a few times that she really reminded her of someone she knew. Someone with whom she had shared so much wonderful memories. And the little girl smiled and giggled, before darting off again, having seen a river just further away.

After half an hour, the finally got to the outskirts of the village and the little girl began to yell for her mommy. The older woman had an half smile looking at her, happy for her, but also sad about what had happened to her and those that she had lost.

"Thank you miss, you've been so kind! You're so the bestest ever!"

"It's nothing sweetie, I'm glad to-"

"Violet, get away from that woman! She's dangerous!"

The older woman jerked back as she turned to see the one who yelled and she looked down when she saw a woman with purple hair, only a shade darker than the one of the small girl that she escorted, running in their direction, . She distanced herself from the child, while her mother grabbed her and pulled her away, glaring at the hooded figure that stood beside her child a few instant before. The older girl sighed and began to turn around, heading back in the forest, back to her home.

"Hey, miss! Miss! You've never told me your name!"

The older girl almost fell down and yelped slightly when she saw the young girl right beside her, smiling, while her mother was running, not nearly as much energy as her child had. The older girl smiled and removed her hood, a cascade of blond hair flowing on her back, lilac eyes observing the little girl, while a smile slowly crept to her lips.

"Well, Violet, since I know you name, I don't really have a choice, haven't I? I'm Yang, maybe you've heard about me."

The little girl smiled and nodded, giggling.

"Yes, but those people who told those story don't know you, because you're not as mean as they say…"

Yang's smile faded and she stood up, ruffling the hair of Violet, sighing softly.

"Who know… Maybe they don't."

"Hey Yang? I hope you'll find the people you lost, just like you made me find my mommy."

A lonely tear slowly ran down the brawler's face, before she began walking away, waving slowly at Violet.

"Who knows… Maybe I'll find my mother or my team too…"

"I'm sure you will Yang!"

"Thanks Violet… I'll think about you when I do. Pinkie promise"


So, I tried to write something with low description and more dialogue. It's actually something I sometime enjoy in stories, when the story moves quickly but characters interact between each other.

I believed that it would feel right with Yang as she was also the one that was the most damage by the events that occurred at the Fall, she seemed that she was getting more and more to the point, direct when she was talking with Ruby, instead of rambling and doing a lot of talking.

So... Yeah, maybe not the best thing ever, but for me it means a lot, it's one of the first thing that I've written in months

Also, quick note, this is a repost from what I had already published on AO3 and that I'm posting over here, one year later.
