A/N: This is my first story on this site, so constructive criticism is appreciated. This was written based on a prompt from a friend.
Insane is such a mean word. I prefer mentally creative.
"Welcome to the Trunque Corps. Where you can purge the sins of your ancestors with the most divine flame designed." A silky voice recording played over the loudspeakers, eliciting a growl from the rooms lone occupant. Human bastards. First they torture me, now they have to play my love's voice to taunt me. Not that his thoughts really mattered in his state. Strapped to a metal chair with the strongest restraints possible, so strong that even someone with as much Aura as him couldn't possibly escape. Adam Taurus sighed as he prepared himself for his next session.
But it never came. Curious, he began to scan the room as much as the restrains allowed him. Then he noticed. On the balcony, behind the glass. Her.
"Good morning~" The girl sang out. That voice. Those eyes. There was no mistaking his captor. Ruby Rose herself.
"I see the Divine Flame has failed again. Oh well. I guess I get to torture you even more now." The she-demon said in a giddy voice, as if she were getting a new toy. "The serum will eventually work, and then we shall begin to market it to all those who have committed atrocities across Remnant. Particularly your former acolytes. They deserve a chance at redemption."
Adam growled in anger. How dare she brainwash his fellow Faunus! Though it was to be expected, given that she had married the Schnee heiress.
"However, you will get no such redemption." The girl's tone darkened considerably, as she came even closer to the glass. Her single eye filled with unbridled hate. The eyepatch reminding him that it was his ambush that pushed her over the edge, creating the she-demon that would destroy the Fang. "You will continue to be tortured until we perfect it and turn you into an innocent child, unaware of his actions." A wicked smile appeared on Ruby's face. "And then my fun begins."
Adam was worried now. He had seen and heard what she did to her enemies. Let's just say the phrase "taking trophies" was a vast understatement.
"I will skin you and torture you, while you have no idea why. Then you shall know how your victims have felt, before I take you as a trophy and add you to my collection." She says darkly. "For you actions against the kingdoms, my fellow Huntsmen and Huntresses, against my friends, and most importantly against my family." Her voice is filled with such venom, it startled even him. "And now you know true fear. The very fear you inspired in others."
And now, for the first time in years, he truly felt afraid. Adam Taurus, the Butcher of Beacon, Defiler of Haven, Claw of the White Fang, was afraid. "You're insane." He shouted, his normally collected voice cracking from the weeks of pain and fear.
This brought a smile to Ruby's face. "I know. And I revel in it. After all, you taught me that." She began to skip out of the room, turning back one last time to seal his fate. "Enjoy your trials today. I've upped the dosage. Just for you~" She sang as the door closed and the glass was covered by thick metal panes. The last thing he heard before the burning pain spread through every cell in his body was Blake's voice playing over the loudspeakers, in a final act of spite against him.
