SPH: Hey-o! Samantha Peace HeartStar here with my new RWBY fanfic MROG which is pronounced mirage, which features me and my little sister Ruby, as well as my friend Grace! So, without further ado, I do not own any characters or places from RWBY, they belong to Rooster Teeth, Ruby belong to Ruby, and Grace belongs to GraceKim1, I only own me, Octavia, and all other OC's. on with the story!
"Mary Xiao Long prepare to lose!" A young girl with dark brown skin, brown eyes, and black hair cried holding a pillow while jumping on her bed.
"No, you prepare to lose my dearest younger sister Ruby!" A slightly older girl with fiery strawberry-blonde hair, brown eyes, and fair skin cried also holding a pillow and jumping on her bed. "Give up and be spared humiliation!"
"In your dreams!" The other girl, Ruby cried. "Yaw!" She cried lunging at the other girl, her sister Mary.
Mary barely managed to jump and duck out of the way in time, her hair being pulled out of its ponytail and falling into her face once she hit the floor.
"Oh, this means war little sister!" she cried as her bangs fell in front of her eyes. She lunged for Ruby who spun out of the way, whacking Mary in the process. Mary; however managed to whack Ruby's legs and trip her. Mary laughed as she got up; pillow held high, ready to whack her sister. Ruby; however launched herself back onto her feet, Mary barely dodging in time. This pattern of whacking, jumping, and dodging continued for about a half hour.
"ULTIMATE PILLOW OF DEATH!" Ruby cried jumping from a small corner of the ceiling that had a ledge that she could kneel on. She tackled Mary off her bed and onto the floor.
"Oh! You got me! Dear sister! And now I shall die! Ugh!" Mary cried dramatically as she pretended to die.
Both sisters broke into a fit of giggles moments after.
Someone cleared their throat from the doorway and both girls saw their mother Yang Xiao Long standing in the doorway smirking.
"I'm pretty sure I told you to go to town to pick up the dust I ordered a half hour ago, not turn your room into a war zone and your clothes into dresses from the Flamingo Glade ballet." She said.
"Come on mom!" Ruby cried, "Its Mary's last day home before she goes to Beacon! Which means it's our last night to ho fun sisterly stuff!"
Yang had adopted Ruby when she was only a month old hence why the sisters looked so different, but it didn't stop them from having an unbreakable bond to each other.
"Yeah mom, cut us some slack." Mary said pulling her hair back into a ponytail.
Yang laughed.
"Dust yourselves off, then go get the dust, I want you both back by ten." Yang said walking away.
"Come on, we'd better go before she loses it." Mary said brushing off the feathers.
"We taking Phoenix?" Ruby asked referring to Mary's motorcycle.
"Duh." Mary said.
"I still can't believe you get to go to Beacon while I stay at Signal!" Ruby complained as they navigated the streets.
"Hey, look at it this way, mom won't be able to embarrass you in class and you'll get to spend more time with Aunt Ruby!" Mary said as the Dust store pulled into view.
"True." Ruby said as Mary parked Phoenix.
"Let's just get the dust, then get home," Mary said smoothing the black leather skirt she had on before popping the matching jacket and fixing the collar of her celestial blue shirt, which was the outfit she always wore when riding Phoenix "I want a rematch for that pillow fight."
Ruby laughed as they walked into From Dust Till Dawn.
"Hi!" Mary said perkily as they approached the man behind the counter, "We're here to pick up a delivery for Yang Xiao Long, we're her daughters Mary," she gestured to herself, "and Ruby." She finished gesturing to Ruby.
"Hi!" Ruby said waving.
"I'll be right with you," the man said, "gotta finish restocking the display case, then I'll go get the package, feel free to look around."
"Sure, just let us know once you've got it." Mary said. She leaned twords Ruby.
"Wanna check out the magazines?" she whispered.
"You know mom's not a fan of us reading those." Ruby said, "She thinks they're all baloney."
"But is she here?" Mary asked grinning.
"Oh," Ruby said catching on. She grinned as well.
Both girls dashed over to the magazine racks, Mary picking up one directed twords teen age girls, flipping to the section about relationship advice, while Ruby put on her head phones listening to 'Time to Say Goodbye' and flipped through the same one, only not going to any specific part. Mary spotted Ruby's headphones and hit a button on her choker that turned it into a pair and put them on as well, choosing to listen to 'Sacrifice'.
A shady looking guy with three other shady looking guys walked twords the shop. A few people saw and got back, one woman screaming and holding onto a toddler girl.
"Shut up!" the man barked looking at her.
The woman stopped screaming and nodded her head so hard you'd think it'd fall off.
The man had an annoyed grin on his face as he walked in and over to the counter.
"Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a dust store open this late?" he asked as one of his men pointed a gun at the man behind the counter.
"P-please! Just take my Lein and leave!" he said with his hands in the air.
"Shh, calm down, we aren't here for your money." The shady looking guy said. He turned to his men. "Grab the dust!"
The men nodded and started collecting the dust, filling tubes of the ground, ready to be used in a weapon ones. The shady looking guy laced a large container on the counter.
"Crystals," he said, "burn. Uncut."
One of the men walked over to the tubs containing ground dust on the opposite wall.
"You can't have my life! I'm not your sacrifice!" Mary sang softly unintentionally making her and Ruby known.
"Okay kids, hands in the air!" the man said walking over, somehow not acknowledging they were wearing headphones even though you could see them.
Mary and Ruby were too caught up in their music and magazines to realize what was going on.
"Hey! You two got a death wish, or something? I said hands in the air!" the man said turning the girls to face him. They both looked at him confused and he pointed to his head, indicating their headphones. Both girls put them around their necks.
"Yes?" they asked.
"I said hands in the air, now!" the man said.
"Are you…" Mary started.
"Robbing us?" Ruby asked.
The man nodded.
"Oh," the two sisters said glancing at each other smirking.
"Hyha!" Ruby said kicking him in the gut, while Mary upercutted him in the jaw.
"Sister Surprise!" the sisters said smiling as they said the name of the attack they'd made when they were little and kids had picked on Ruby for being adopted, long story short, after that year, none of the kids at Signal picked on Ruby for being different again, and learnt to never get on Mary's bad side.
"Freeze!" Another man said pointing a gun at them.
Next thing everyone knew, the man was sent flying through the window, Ruby had a bow and arrows with hearts at the tips of the arrows out, Mary had a scythe, and both girls were holding their headphones in one hand with their weapons in the other. Both girls hit the off button, Mary's turning back into a choker, however, she put it in her pocket, rather than around her neck.
"Okayy…" The shady looking guy who was clearly in charge said staring. He caught his men staring as well and frowned. "Get them!"
The men raced after the girls. Mary leaped over the scythe and kicked one of them in the gut while Ruby used it to jump into the air, while she loaded her bow before firing, using ice dust to fuel the arrows, one of which managed to freeze one of the men in place. Mary picked up her scythe and used it to knock another man down. She hopped onto it while pulling a trigger that cause it to shot across the ground while she kicked and punched the man Ruby's frozen, while Ruby hit the other man. The final man was getting up, just as Ruby landed.
"I've got this one," Mary said pulling out her chocker. She hit a button and it morphed into a dart gun. She pulled the trigger and hit the man with a tranquilizer dart, knocking him out cold.
"Huh, guess you were right," Ruby said, "you would need to actually use the dart gun again."
Mary smirked.
"Yup, Sam learnt his lesson, but not everyone has." She said referring to the guy from school who used to stock her.
"Well, you two were worth every cent, truly you were," the shady looking guy said, "well, girls, I think we can all say it's been an eventful evening, and as much as I'd love to stick around…" He lifted his cane reveling it to be a sniper gun. "I'm afraid this is where we part ways."
He fired, only instead of a bullet, he shot a flare.
"Gah!" Mary cried jumping in front of Ruby while activating her semblance, which was the ability to take any sort of heat, or fire and channel it into some other thing, in this case, taking the heat from the flare, and storing it to be used later, while making the actual flare useless.
"You okay?" she asked Ruby, who nodded.
"Where that guy…" Ruby started, then spotted him using the fire escape on a nearby building. She turned to the shop keeper. "Mind if we?"
"Go get him, I'll call the police." The shop keep said.
Both girls nodded and Mary held out her scythe. Ruby jumped onto the blade.
"Allie oop!" Mary cried using her scythe to make Ruby airborne.
Once in the air Ruby fired an arrow fueled with Gravity dust which launched her over to the building. Mary followed doing the same with her scythe. They chased after the guy once they were on the roof.
"Hey Shady!" they cried.
The shady looking guy who was standing at the edge of the roof stopped.
"You two are persistent." He grumbled.
Both sisters got a tighter hold on their weapons. An airship rose up and the force that came with it nearly knocked the girls down. The man quickly climbed aboard as lights from the ship shone on the girls, temporarily blinding them.
"End of the lines girls!" the shady looking guy said holding up a red dust crystal.
"He has no clue what your semblance is, does he?" Ruby asked acknowledging they type of dust the crystal was.
"Nope." Mary said.
He tossed the crystal which landed at their feet. Mary got ready to use her semblance as he fired; however before she had the chance a Huntress blocked the explosion from hitting them with a Glyph.
"Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!" the shady looking guy cried before noticing.
The Huntress then changed the dust in her weapon causing the Glyph to change into numerous tiny missiles that were shot at the ship.
This shocked the man greatly. He quickly hurried to the cockpit struggling to stay standing.
"We got a Huntress!" he called as a siren whaled throughout the ship warning every one of the hits.
The person who'd been piloting quickly stood up and headed back to the opening making sure to stay in the shadows, prompting the shady looking guy to take control.
The ship started flying away and the Huntress used a Glyph to summon a huge storm. The storm caused the ship to be off balance making it harder to steer. Then the Huntress changed dust again causing the storm to shoot blue ice crystals.
The person on the ship started firing back with actual fire coming from their hands! The Huntress had to move out of the way when she noticed that the roof beneath her was about to explode.
Mary took the heat from the explosion and used it to take the shards of roof to make flaming missiles and fire them right back. The person shot them, but Mary kept pulling them back together and firing, gaining more and more power each blast. Eventually the person managed to shatter them completely, knocking Mary down, though she launched herself back up, taking the energy from the flare to regain her stamina and posture.
"Mary!" Ruby cried.
"I'm fine," Mary said.
Ruby nodded and noticed the ship was getting away and quickly started firing at it, Mary taking her dart gun and replacing the darts with dust, something that she knew would get her in trouble with her mom later, before firing as well.
The person blocked each before once again making the roof explode causing the Huntress and sisters to take cover. While they did so the airship's door shut and they flew off.
"Oh no!" Ruby cried, "They got away!"
"Ow…" Mary said rubbing her head.
Ruby quickly rushed to her sisters side, holding her hands to her head before humming, allowing her Semblance, which was healing to heal her sister.
"Thanks little sis." Mary said standing up.
They both looked at the Huntress whom they hadn't gotten a good look at before. She had white hair pulled back in an off the side ponytail, pale, almost white skin, blue eyes, a scar on her left wearing white, and had on an extremely mad scowl.
"You're a Huntress!" both sisters cried in excitement.
"Oh my gosh!" Mary suddenly cried, "You're not just any Huntress, you're Weiss Schnee! One of the teachers at Beacon!"
Ruby's eyes lit up like they always did when meeting someone from Beacon.
"Can I have your autograph?!" she asked.
Mary and Ruby both sat behind a table frowning as Weiss walked around them.
"I hope you girls realize your actions tonight won't be taken lightly!" Weiss said, "You put yourselves and others in great danger."
"They started it!" Mary and Ruby cried.
"And if this is about Ruby asking for your autograph, she asks that of all teachers and graduated students from Beacon." Mary said.
"Do not!" Ruby cried.
"Based on your actions you're clearly Yang's daughters." Weiss muttered.
The sisters smirked. Of course Weiss would be able to identify them and their mom based on the fighting, she had been a member of team RWBY just like their mom had.
"If it were up to me, you'd be sent home…" Weiss said looking at footage from the fight, "With a pat on the back,"
Both girls smiled.
"And a slap on the wrist!" Weiss finished glaring making the two jump back.
"But… there's someone here who'd like to talk to you." She said sighing.
"Mom?" the girls guessed.
"No," Weiss said.
Beacon's Headmaster since the fall of Salem, Oscar walked in holding a tray with cookies, and two glasses of milk.
"Mary and Ruby Xiao Long," he said setting the cookies down.
Both girls all but dove for them.
"So, where did you learn to fight like this?" Oscar asked motioning to the footage.
"S-Signal Academy." Mary and Ruby replied.
"They taught you how to use bows and arrows as well as one of the most dangerous weapons created?" Oscar asked.
"Well, one teacher in particular." Mary said, "… Well, two I guess, only one teacher knew how to use a bow and arrow, and…"
"It's just, I've only ever seen a scythe used like that by…" Oscar started making Weiss shake her head.
"Our aunt Ruby!" both girls cried.
"She's a teacher at Signal and the one who taught me and Ruby how to fight, and use my scythe!" Mary said, "she and mom taught us how to fight as a team and we've been an inseparable one ever since!"
"Well, until now." Ruby said glumly. "Tomorrow Mary starts at Beacon while I stay at Signal for two more years."
"And what are adorable girls like you doing at Signal," Oscar said. He looked at Mary, "or in your case, Beacon?"
"Well, ever since we were young we wanted to be Huntresses," Mary said.
"We wanted to fight monsters, and help people, and put our semblances to good use!" Ruby said.
"Our world's far from perfect, and there's a lot of evil in the world," Mary continued.
"Both seen and unseen," Ruby added.
"and we want to help protect and fight against it," Mary said.
"Together as a team for as long as we live!" the sisters finished in sync.
Weiss rolled her eyes while Oscar smirked.
"Do you two know who I am?" he asked.
"Professor Oscar, the Headmaster of Beacon." The sisters said together.
"Hello," Oscar said smiling.
"Nice to meet you." Mary and Ruby said.
"Ruby, you want to come to my school?" Oscar asked.
"More than anything," Ruby said nodding.
Oscar looked at Weiss who rolled her eyes and looked away.
"Well then, alright." Oscar said.
"Oh! I still can't believe my little sister's coming with me to Beacon!" Mary cried hugging Ruby as they rode to Beacon on an airship. "Best! Day! Ever!"
"Can't breathe…" Ruby choked.
"Sorry!" Mary cried letting go, "I'm just so excited! Everyone's going to think you're the bee's knees!"
"I don't wanna be the bee's knees!" Ruby cried smoothing out her combat skirt and the bow on her waist, then straitening the color of her blue shirt, "I wanna be a normal girl, with normal knees who's on the same team as you, and gets to be a Huntress… and not humiliated in class by mom."
Mary laughed.
"I hear ya on that last one!" she said, "I'm praying mom doesn't humiliate us while we're at Beacon."
She frowned.
"Come on, aren't you excited to be going to Beacon?" she asked, "I thought it's what you've been dreaming about."
"I am excited, it's just weird leaving all my friends behind and knowing only you." Ruby said.
"Hey, what about Grace?" Mary asked, "We finally get to meet her in person instead of just through pen pal letters!"
"True." Ruby said smiling.
"The robbery was lead by nefarious criminal Blaze Redwork, who broke out of prison three months ago and has evaded authorities ever since." A news reporter said on the viewing screen from the airship, "If you have any information on his whereabouts, plea contact the Vale Police Department. Back to you Sophia."
The news reporter switched to Sophia Sapphire.
"Thank you Gale," Sophia said.
She was just starting to talk about a Peace Rally among Faunus when the news turned off and a hologram of Weiss appeared in its place.
"Hello students, I am Weiss Schnee," the hologram said, "Welcome to Beacon. You are among a privileged few who have the honor of being selected to attend this prestigious academy! Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace,"
Mary and Ruby raised an eyebrow. A criminal escaping from pirsion three months ago, evading authorities since them and robbing a Dust store late at night did not sound like peace to them, not to mention during Protests lead by Faunus, things always went bad, and on occasion people had gotten hurt! The media covered it up pretty well, but Huntsmen and Huntresses didn't sugar coat anything, at least not when telling their mom when they all assumed the girls were asleep.
"and as future Huntsmen and Huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it." Holo Weiss said, "you have demonstraited the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and the training to protect our world."
Holo Weiss vanished as the airship drew closer to the school.
"Wow!" Ruby cried running to the side and staring out the window, "Look! You can see Signal from here!"
"Yeah! And there's the house!" Mary cried pointing to a house near the woods.
"Guess home isn't too far away after all." Ruby said.
"Beacon's our home now." Mary said wrapping an arm around her sister's shoulders.
The moment between them was interrupted when a guy standing near them with shaggy black hair, and blue eyes dressed in black threw up, covered his mouth and raced to the bathroom to finish emptying his stomach.
"Well, I guess the view isn't for everyone," Ruby said, "I wonder who all we'll meet?"
"Hope they've got a stronger stomach than Barf Boy," Mary said, "even if he's kinda cute."
"What happened with Cody?" Ruby asked.
"Broke up," Mary said shrugging, "he clearly didn't take me, or our relationship seriously, plus he said that real men don't do laundry unless they're widowed fathers, he's lucky he said that over the scroll, or I'd of decked him one."
"Ew! You've got puke on your shoe!" Ruby cried pointing to one of Marcy's black wedge heels.
"Gross, gross, gross, gross!" Mary repeated trying to shake it off her shoe.
"Eww! Get away from me! Get away, get away, get away!" Ruby cried trying not to get vomit on her boots, or outfit either.
SPH: Well! There ya go! Chapter 1! Hope you all liked it! So, what awaits the two sisters? Who's Barf Boy? Will Mary get to deck Cody one? (It's actually based on my break up with my boyfriend of the same name, only he was lucky I was sick, or I'd of decked him one since he said it to my face. We're cool now and friends, but still) Who will they meet? What's the outfit Mary wears when she's not riding Phoenix? Just who was on that airship? Most of these will be answered in the next chapter! Well, until next time, this is Samantha Peace HeartStar signing off for now, peace out and keep spreading the Kingdom Hearts, How To Train Your Dragon, and RWBY love!
