HOLY CRAP I'M ALIVE. It's been a while since I've visited Fanfiction. As you can see I started watching RWBY. Rosewick of course caught my eye. I probably look for stuff for this ship, like, every day. I think I've found everything for it. It's not hard to… It's still a small ship, but hopefully in time, it will grow. I started a group for it on DA, so if you have a deviantart account, feel free to become a member. It's called Rosewick-Club. Not hard to find. Anyways, this is an Alpha Omegaverse story. I decided to put my own spin on it. It's not normal to see this kind of universe for a straight pairing but I'm going to give it a shot. I hope y'all enjoy!

"Omegas don't belong in the battlefield!" The little Beta girl yelled as she kicked dirt at the fallen over Ruby. A group of Alphas and Betas played huntress, when the girl in red asked to join. But, Omegas weren't fighters, why should she play?
"You can be the stay at home wife." An Alpha boy said to her as they ran off to continue playing. The girl sat up and tucked her knees under her chin. She wrapped her arms around her and began to sob. She heard footsteps running up to her and crouch down beside her.
"Ruby, what happened? Are you okay?" Her Alpha sister, Yang asked, pulling her younger sister to her. Ruby nodded against her sister's shoulder but otherwise did not respond. Yang hugged her sister. "Hey, why don't we go home? I'll read you some of those fairy tales you like so much." She said with a gentle smile. Ruby looked up to her and wiped the tears off her face with balled fists.
"O-okay…" She whispered. Yang grabbed hold of her sister's hand and they walked home together. She knew what her sister would be facing. Yang had begun to learn about Alphas, Betas, and Omegas in school. She had the luxury of being born an Alpha, but her sister, being from a different mother, was born an Omega. Since Yang had begun reading these stories to her sister, Ruby began to want to grow up and change the world. She wanted to help people who couldn't help themselves. But Omegas were not seen as capable of doing so much. Very rarely would an Omega become a huntress. Except of course, Ruby's mother. That, and the fairy tales, kept Ruby going. She not only wanted to help those in need, but prove that she was capable of doing so.
She could still hear her sister sniffling as they walked up their driveway, she gave the small hand a light squeeze. Their father was out on another business trip, Yang would have to cook again tonight. They came in and she set her stuff on the table and lit the stove. Ruby climbed into the chair at the dinner table and swung her feet, watching her sister cook. She looked over and saw her favorite book on the coffee table in the living room. She climbed down and went to pick it up. She opened the book to her favorite part in the story. She knew most of the words but for the most part she enjoyed looking at the pictures while someone else read it to her. A light smile graced her face as she stared at the picture. The girl in the while hood had defeated the grimm that had preyed on the village.
After dinner, Yang took Ruby to their room. Both sisters sat on Ruby's bed after changing into their pajamas and opened up Ruby's favorite book. It told the story of a girl whose village had been attacked by a group of grimm. The girl saved her family and village, showing the picture of the girl in the white hood standing victoriously in front of the fallen grimm, face covered by the hood.
"And they all lived happily ever after." Yang read out, completing the book. "Time for bed, Ruby."
"Yang?"
"Yes?"
"Do you think.." Ruby started, "one day, I could be like that girl in the book?"
Yang smiled and squeezed her sister to her side.
"I think you're already on your way." Ruby smiled and lied down pulling up her covers. "Goodnight, Huntress Ruby." Yang whispered turning off the light.
"Goodnight, Yang.." She whispered back, closing her eyes. Maybe her and the girl from the fairy tales weren't so different after all.
Ruby liked to imagine the hooded figure was an Omega too.

The girl in red hurried though the halls during passing period. She just wanted to get to class as soon as possible. Her Alpha and Beta friends would be there waiting, they'd be there to protect her.
"I wonder if she's had her heat yet…" She heard the whisper behind her and cringed.
'Here we go...'
"I don't know, but I know when it does I'd like to deflower that rose." There came the snickers. She held her books tighter to her chest and used her semblance to speed to class. Once she got there she sat down in the back corner of the room. Out of sight, out of mind. She soon her the voices of her friends echoing in the halls and then saw them enter the classroom. They all smiled at her and sat around her to her left, as if forming a blockade and began to tell her about their weekend. She smiled back and told them about her training sessions with her uncle Qrow, excitedly. She began to wave her arms around to accentuate points. She was only fourteen and was already beginning to come together with her fighting skills. She had been training with her uncle for almost two years.
"Today, we will begin our chapter on Hunter and Huntress weaponry, you will all be expected to have forged your own weapons and show them to the class at the end of the semester." Their teacher announced at the front of the class. Ruby sat up and grinned excitedly. Finally, they were beginning on the weaponry. She was quite knowledgeable on weapons, not to brag or anything. This was the time of year she was most excited for. She would dedicate the next few months to weapons and building one of her own, an extension of her own self, as if a part of her soul. She was so excited, she began to feel a warm tingling sensation fill her body, fogging her mind. Her smile began to fall, and anxiety hit. No, this wasn't supposed to happen now of all times.
It was her Alpha friends that it hit first. Their heads spun to her direction, a petrified look towards her. But their eyes darkening nonetheless. Pretty soon, Alphas from even the front row began to react. Cover their mouths and noses, trying not to take her heat in. Trying to keep themselves restrained. The Beta teacher recognized the signs and ran over to Ruby, grabbing her hand and pulling her out of the classroom. As they passed by the classrooms, Ruby could hear a bit of commotion. Alphas were picking up on her scent, and fast. Faster than they should. Ruby's legs were becoming numb, her mind going into a haze. She almost fell over several times on the way to the nurse's office. Her teacher told her to lay down on the available bed while she went to get her sister. She collapsed on the bed and held herself in the fetal position. Panting could be heard from her. The Beta Nurse gave her a blanket and a pillow, giving her a reassuring smile that said everything would be alright. This is normal.
Her first heat. First heats are not usually this strong.
The door swung open and in came Yang immediately to her side. She grabbed her hand and squeezed it lightly in an attempt to comfort her. It helped a little.
"We called your father. He's on his way to pick you two up. Ruby, you'll have to miss the next couple of days for your heat." The nurse explained. Ruby could barely make out what she was saying. The words seemed slightly jumbled in her heat induced state. But she got the gist of it. She would miss school, right when they were learning about weapons. Of course, being an Omega would ruin this for her.
When her father arrived, the nurse pulled him to the side. They had a hushed conversation that Ruby was too far gone to even try to comprehend what they were saying. When they got home she was sent to bed to ride out her heat for the next couple of days. Yang helped her into bed and left her alone. Although the heat didn't affect Yang, her being Ruby's sister, it was best for Omegas to be left alone or with their mate during this time. Through her pants she managed to huff.
Her mate better be worth all of this.
She tried to picture him. What he would look like, what he would sound like. What kind of person he would be. She supposed as long as he was nice, she didn't care. The thought of being submissive to another person wasn't exactly appealing. But not hard to see for her either. If how she was acting during this heat was any indication, it was pretty normal for Omegas to be dependent during the time of mating. Oh, God, it was getting worse. If that was even possible. She was beginning to lose her mind. She didn't care, she wished she had a mate now so this would end! She turned to her side facing the wall, gripping her sheets. The room felt hot, and began to start spinning.
There was a knock on the door. Ruby looked over her shoulder, to see Yang come walking in with a plate of food. Yang began to pause for a moment, being caught off guard by the heat but continued forward and set the food on the side table next to Ruby's bed and crouched down next to her.
"How are you feeling? You've been quiet for hours." Hours? Had she really been here that long?
She dreaded her future heats.
She sat in the doctor's office with her sister and her dad. It had been a few days after her first heat. Apparently there had been a concern over the severity of it. Her father explained to the Omega pediatrician what had went on following her heat. The doctor listened patiently and would write things down on her notepad. After he and Yang finished their story she began to write down more. A few seconds went by before she looked up at them and then at Ruby.
"I understand your concern, this isn't exactly a normal occurrence." She turned and set her notepad on her desk and turned back to them. "Although, it is nothing to be worried about. Your Omega daughter happens to have a more potent heat. This is rare, but not a problem. It will be easier to attract an Alpha or Beta to mate with."
At this point, Yang had grabbed her hand. She knew what these words were doing to Ruby. Every word was a stab in Ruby's chest.
"She will be a great breeder." The doctor concluded.
Yang gave her hand a light squeeze.

"I can't believe you got accepted into Beacon!" Ruby squealed excitedly. Yang grinned at her sister.
"It's only a matter of time before you're accepted." Yang reasoned, turning towards her luggage. They would be leaving tomorrow to take Yang to Beacon Academy, one of the best schools for huntress training.
"Yeah right, I still have two more years left at Signal. By then, they'll probably find tons of people better than me and won't even look my way." Ruby muttered, diverting her eyes.
They'd be crazy not to accept you into their school!" Yang exclaimed, throwing her arms in the air.
"Yeah, I guess your right… Hey, before I start packing, I wanna see if they have the latest issue of the Weapons Magazine."
"Seriously? At this hour?" Yang questioned, worried.
"Hey, I'll be fine. I have Crescent Rose, remember? Besides, I would have gotten it earlier today if we hadn't gone out of town to celebrate your acceptance letter." Ruby gave a smirk. Yang sighed.
"Fine, but be careful. From Dust Till Dawn is probably the only shop crazy enough to still be open at this time."
Ruby walked into the shop, greeting the elderly man behind the counter and walking straight towards the magazine section. She kept her hood up and pressed play on her mp3. She picked up the magazine Weapons and began skimming through till she got to scythes. She took in every word, excited to learn more about cleaning, maintenance, and new attack styles with a scythe. Once finished she set it back on the stand. She glance over the different magazines, seeing what else they had for weapons. Majority seemed to be about Dust, although she didn't really expect any different from a Dust shop. She was contemplating her option when a hand gripped her shoulder causing her to turn around.
"Huh?" She looked to see an angry man in a black fedora, red sunglasses, and a black suit. She noted the sword in his hand. He angrily pointed to his ears, signaling for her to take her headphones off. She did.
"Yes?"
"I said, put your hands in the air, now!" He demanded.
"Are you… robbing me?" She questioned.
"Yes!"
"Ah.." She said, a slight smile coming to her face. She lifted her leg and gave the strongest kick she could muster.
"Hey-!"
"Hiyah!" She shouted, sending him flying backwards. Into the cans against the front wall of the shop. Another similar looking man came forward, hesitating slightly, before running at her and pulling his gun out.
"Freeze!" She ran at him, using both of her legs this time causing them both to go crashing outside the window.
She got up slowly, extending her scythe to its full form. She expected more of them. Guess she broke her promise of being careful. She looked up and smirked, swinging her scythe and slamming it into the pavement.
'Easy there Ruby, we've already caused enough damage.' She told herself.
"Okaaaaay….?" Her heart skipped a beat. That voice… it send a pleasurable shiver through her, she didn't like it. "Get her!"
She prepared herself for the four men coming at her, spinning herself and her scythe. She took down the fourth man, sending him flying to the man in the white coat's feet.
"You were worth every cent, truly you were…" He muttered. She finally was able to get a better look at him. Orange hair, bowler hat, white over coat, smoking a cigar, carried a cane, green eyes. Well, eye, one was covered by his bangs. He was handsome, for a thief, she reminded herself. "Well, Red! I think we can all say it's been an eventful evening!" He said as he crushed his cigar with his cane. Red? "And as much as I'd love to stick around, I'm afraid this," The end popped up, it wasn't a cane, it was a gun. Definitely a gun! "Is where we part ways."
He fired at her.
She used her semblance to get out of the way of the shot. She looked around for him, to see him climbing the emergency fire ladder on the wall of a building. He was fast, but not as fast as her. After asking the elderly man if he was okay, she went after him. Using her speed to go up the stairs before swinging herself over the top of the building.
"Hey!" She called. He stopped, a shiver seemed to go through him. She figured she was probably imagining things because of the wind. But she knew he was an Alpha.
She never reacted this way with any other Alpha.
"Persistent…" He muttered. She prepared herself, when she heard the rumble of a plane. It lifted up to the building, it must have been his getaway. He ran to it, climbing the rope ladder that had been dropped down. He turned to face her again.
"End of the line, Red!" She wasn't sure if she liked this nickname or not. He threw a Dust crystal at her, she backed away confused. That's when he fired at her. But she was saved, from the explosion.
No, never mind. She hated the nickname, Red.
She was joined by a huntress. The night escalated when they were attacked by a powerful stranger who attacked with fire. They got out, but then again so did the bad guys. She was taken back to a building where the huntress got onto her about her recklessness. That was when she officially met Professor Ozpin. The headmaster at Beacon Academy.
"You want to go to my school?" He asked.
"More than anything." Ruby responded. Once she finished at Signal, her one dream was to go to Beacon and become one of the few Omega huntresses in existence.
"Well, okay." Wait, what? What? This wasn't happening… her dream wasn't just coming true! She had to be dreaming! "W-Wait, really? Like, two years from now, apply?"
"No, as in, you are accepted now. You may start here next semester." She was quiet for a while. Assessing what had just happened. Suddenly, she shot up and began squealing.
"Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!" She grabbed Crimson Rose and began dancing. "I'm going to Beacon, I'm going to Beacon!" She sang. She then froze, remembering where she was and who she was in front of. She quickly calmed herself and sat down. "I accept your decision."
He looked at her with a bemused expression on his face. Glynda glared at her as if Ozpin had just made the biggest mistake. There was suddenly a knock on the door. It opened and in ran Yang, followed by their father. Yang came over and hugged her sister. Taiyang stood by the door, feeling a little embarrassed, after hearing what had happened.
"Ah, Taiyang, it has been a while since I have seen you." Ozpin greeted, as he shook their father's hand.
"Hello Ozpin, it's great to see you. Though I wish we could see each other under better circumstances." He shook back.
Yang smiled at Ruby, giving her hand a light squeeze. Ruby smiled back, although her face had gone slightly red at her father's words.
"On the contrary, your daughter attempted to stop a robbery, showing great skill with her scythe from what Ms. Goodwitch told me." Ruby looked over at Glynda who looked away, blushing. Great skill? The huntress really said that about her? "It wasn't until a third, more powerful party stepped in and helped the thief get away. But I believe with a little more training, Miss Rose could be quite a force to be reckoned with as a huntress."
"A-A huntress?" Her father choked. "I'm sorry, Ozpin, but my daughter… she's an Omega. It's too dangerous for her to pursue… that kind of lifestyle."
Ruby felt anger, and was about to speak up, until Ozpin cut in.
"You don't believe in your daughter?" He challenged, with a small smile still on his face. He remained calm and collected while Taiyang became nervous.
"Of course I do…" He spoke truthfully. "I just don't want anything happening to her…"
Ruby felt the fire in her die out. She understood his concern. Omegas DID have limitations. It would be hard for her. But that didn't mean she wasn't going to try.
"Dad, I WANT to be a huntress. This is what I've wanted all my life." She looked at him pleadingly. He was taken aback. He looked down to the floor, considering it. Finally he looked at Yang.
"Yang, watch out for your sister, okay?" Ruby shot up and hugged her father. He stiffened, before slowly hugging her back. Yang joined them, laughing. Ruby looked over to Ozpin and saw him visibly relaxed, smile widening. Huh, maybe he wasn't as calmed and collected as she thought.

The thief picked up a small red Dust crystal, inspecting it. That girl left him with an odd feeling. He could tell, she was an Omega. But, he had been around Omegas before. There were a few in the White Fang. But, then again, they were a bunch of filthy animals. Just thinking about the girl sent another shiver though him. He felt slightly warm. He WAS an Alpha, but Alphas didn't typically react this way to Omegas unless they were in heat.
This girl was something else.
"Till we meet again, Red."
