DISCLAIMER: I do not own RWBY or any other work of Rooster teeth productions

Ruby woke up feeling refreshed as ever, after a full week of midterm exams, she and her team finally got the two weeks off that they deserved and she had big plans to celebrate. She got out of her bed and quickly got dressed in her combat dress. she looked around her room for the rest of her team, Yang, as usual, was still asleep on her bed with half her body hanging off the edge, Weiss probably got up couple hours earlier and was probably talking to her teachers about extra credit so she can get her perfect grades, and Blake was in the corner reading a book called Ninjas of love, when Ruby read this she couldn't help snickering, hearing this Blake quickly put away the book and went to go take a shower, even she had a naughty side. Ruby looked at Yang and wrote a note so they would know where ruby was going. Ruby then walked out the gates of Beacon academy and got on the first ship to the city. first order of business, she was going the treat herself to a whole liter of cookie dough ice cream.

Today is going to be so nice, Ruby thought, I'm going the hang out with my friends, buy some weapon modifications, and

CRASH

Ruby hit the guy with full force and fell down hard. "Sorry," Ruby said getting up quickly to help the man up.

"It's quite alright," the Man said, "it's partly my fault for not looking where I was going"

"I'm Ruby Rose" she said holding out her hand

"Name's Alex Caponen," He said shaking her hand.

Ruby quickly studied this guy, he was about 16, a year older than her, he had a little bit darker complexion with dark brown hair and dark green eyes. He was wearing a white button up shirt with a red tie, a black vest, black slacks, and a fedora with a emblem etched in the front, it was a Jack of Diamonds playing card. He also had a weapon on his back but she couldn't tell what it is

"What with the jetty up" Ruby said

"What wrong with looking with looking nice" Alex said adjusting his tie

"Nothing is wrong with it, it's just odd to see someone as young as you wearing it," she said

"It's called a battle suit, it's made out of a special Kevlar fabric so I have proper protection and keep my speed and mobility. Plus it makes me look and feel cool." He said taking off his fedora.

"It makes you look like a mobster," she said with a smirk.

"That's kind of the theme I was going for, everyone kind of has one." he said

"Well what's my theme?" Ruby asked curiously

Alex studied her for a moment, as he studied her, his right eye seemed to turn pitch black, Ruby blinked and his eye was normal.

"You're a innocent teenage girl, you want people not to suspect you of things and to trust you, but you don't want them underestimate you, so you learned how to use a scythe to show that you can hold your own ground, all in all, your theme is a hero, you want people to like you by being friendly but still willing to protect them." he said.

"Okay," Ruby said kind of surprised, that was exactly what she was, she looked around and spotted Yang and Blake walking towards them. "how about them," she said pointing towards them, "What's their theme?"

Once again, he took a moment to look at them and she swore this time that his eye turned black, even for a second.

" The one in black is the private type, only reveals things about her life under certain circumstances, but still fights for what she believes in, her theme is that she is a Cat, mysterious but does what she thinks is right. the other one is a fun type, still cares for her friends but still what's to have fun, probably puts out though, hence her showing her cleavage a bit more than normal, a slut you might say, Her theme is a party girl, fun, kind of a whore, but cares for what's right." Alex said with certainty

Ruby stifled a laugh, she was kind of pissed that this man just called her sister a slut but he said it in a way that you just wanted to know what he would say next and believed every word of it.

"Hey sis, who you talking to," Yang said giving her a playful half hug

When Yang said that, all color drained from Alex's face, "Si-Sis, Ruby's your sister," Alex said stuttering, "I should have known, My name's Alex,"

"Yang" "Blake"

"So what were you guys talking about" Yang

"go ahead Alex, tell her," Ruby said with a grin

So Alex told them minus the parts about Yang being a slut, when he was done Yang nodded in agreement and Blake took of her bow to show Alex her cat ears.

"Well, that explains a lot, most faunas personalities reflect on their animal part." Alex said

He looked at his watch and looked a bit surprised. "Well, I must be going or I'm going to late," he flicked his wrist and his hat appeared in it magically, "do any of you guys know where the airport is." he said putting his hat on.

They pointed in the direction they came from, he said good bye and headed in that direction. As he was walking away they got a good look at his weapon, it was brown and black with other color lights that seemed to be flowing through it, it looked like Thompson SMG mixed with some other bladed weapon.

"That weapon was outlawed, how does he have one" Blake said turning around.

Ruby turned around and realized that she forgotten the reason why see came down here. A whole month of planning these two weeks stopped in its tracks by one man.
