"Wake up, wake up, wake up!" Spring Rose opened her eyes slightly. The sight that greeted her was a set of silver eyes and a set of violet eyes.

"Hey Ruby, hey Yang." She said groggily. Stupid morning people disrespecting my sleep. She thought.

"Come on, today's your first day at Beacon! It's gonna be great! There'll be..." Ruby Rose's voice faded into the background as she started listing everything that would be at Beacon.

"Yeah, get up Spring. You'll be great." Said Yang Xiao Long, calmer than her hyper-active sister. Beacon, best school in all of Remnant for training Hunters and I'm going. This'll be fun... Spring threw her legs over the bed, stood up and ushered the other two girls out the door, Ruby still blabbering.

She put on her clothes and looked at herself in the mirror.Black leggings, a black full sleeved t-shirt, black knee-length boots with wedge heels that added 3 inches to her height (which was a welcome improvement), on her shoulders were silver shoulder pads that came up slightly, like spikes, and she had silver coloured guards on her elbows. Spring put her long black hair, that was red at the tips, into a high pony-tail and let her bangs fall sideways across her face, just over her eye.

She picked up her black scythe/0.5 cal, customisable, high impact sniper rifle with a long range scope, and put it in its place on her belt. She'd asked for Ruby's help designing and creating Song Bird and despite protesting Song Bird was an exact replica of Crescent Rose, Spring still loved it and called Song Bird her Baby. She had of course given Song Bird her own twist. Song Bird had a longer, serrated blade and dust canisters near the magazine slot so that Spring could use dust by itself as well as using dust infused ammo. Then came Silver Kick around her ankles. Silver Kick was, practically, Ember Celica strapped to her boots. It also had dust infused ammunition however unlike Yang's gauntlets, Silver Kick could hold 24 shots each - coming to a total of 48 shots. This made the gauntlets chunkier but Spring felt it was worth it so she wouldn't have to bend down it a fight.

Spring's forte was not weapon design hence why she had gone to her sisters for help.

Spring Rose pulled on her black cloak, pulled the hood up, and walked out the door, her silver eyes sparkling.

A/N: Hi! This is a little bit of a detour from what I usually write, Skulduggery Pleasant, but I absolutely love RWBY and really wanted to write a fan fiction about it. Also I'm terrible at descriptions; her shoulder pads are identical to Velvet's shoulder pads but silver. Thoughts are in italics.

Spring is not a Ruby clone. She is Ruby's younger sister (admittedly only by a year) so takes after Ruby and by extension Summer. With Yang off at school and Ruby being closer in age it's clear who she would have looked to most. Although Spring is much dirtier than Ruby and her language deserves a few tuts...
