So, this is a thing. It's a Crime/Prison AU. It should be fairly self explanatory, won't spoil it here. I hope this is a vast improvement on my previous stuff. Enjoy and stick around if you like it.
Ruby had the sound of the Achieve Men blaring in here ears, as she browsed the shelves of the dust store. She had a great love of weapons, but recently the idea of incorporating dust into weaponry had piqued her interest. Thanks to training with her Uncle, she was a very proficient fighter and an incredibly good shot. But it was clear to her that her effectiveness in combat would be a lot greater, with the addition of dust. So, she was looking at the various types of dust and how she could use it in combat.
Being so deeply engrossed in her thoughts and having her senses inhibited by the loud music, she didn't realize that a robbery was taking place behind her. A man in a bowler hat was standing by the door, as men in suits pointed guns at the shopkeeper and started looting the place. The feeling of cold metal against the back of her head, was what finally alerted Ruby to the danger.
She removed her headphones and heard the man behind her say "Empty your pockets, and get on your knees." Ruby reached beneath her cloak, and grab her second favorite weapon. It was Iron Rose, the handgun that her Uncle had given her for protection. Unfortunately, Ruby had left Crescent Rose in her apartment. So, she would have to rely on her second baby. She whipped it out and spun around. Using her free hand to knock her assailants weapon to the side. She fired once, putting a bullet in the man's chest and sending him flying backwards.
Ruby dived for cover behind, and prepared to engage the other robbers. But before she got off another shot, the man in the bowler hat put a bullet in the shopkeepers head. "No!" Ruby shouted as she lost her cool and started wildly firing in his direction. However, she didn't managed to land any hits before her clip emptied. The man in the bowler hat laughed at this clicking sound "Oh no, little red. What are you going to do now?" he mocked. "Well, I'd love to stay and chat but I have a life to live. Thanks for taking the fall for this, I can't stand prison." he said as he walked out. Two of the man's accomplices picked up the body of the man Ruby had killed, and carried him out.
Ruby was left in shock. She sat there in the bullet riddled store, with an empty weapon, and the corpse of a shopkeeper lying behind the counter. She just sat there, as the police swarmed in. "Drop the weapon!" one of the officers shouted as a group approached her with their guns drawn. Iron Rose dropped from her hand, but she didn't say anything. She didn't react as face was pushed against the cold tiles, or when she was cuffed, or even as she was lead out of the shop and forced into the back of a car. "You're going away for a long time." an officer said as he slammed the door and walked away from the car.
Ruby started to cry, she cried in a way that she hadn't since her mother died. She bawled her eyes out in the back of that car, but nobody came to comfort her, nobody gave her any sympathy. To the police, she was a killer. They found her with a gun in her hand, alone in a store with a shopkeeper who'd been shot. This was so unfair, she had tried to help out but now she was in trouble, more trouble than she had ever imagined. As tears faded, and Ruby's screams became sobs. She faintly said "It wasn't me." But the officer who was driving the vehicle shook their head "Tell it to the judge, you wouldn't be the first to try it."
"It wasn't me!" Ruby shouted "It was a guy with a stupid hat!" The officer shook his head again "Whatever, you say kid. I've heard it all before." he said coldly. "I watched him do it, I tried to stop him. You should be arresting him, I'm a victim." Ruby tried to explain. The officer lost his temper "How dare you! How dare you call yourself a victim! You put a bullet in an innocent man's head, and you claim to be the victim. You make me sick."
"You make me sick, you haven't got any evidence. She didn't even look." Ruby retorted. "We have all the evidence we need, you'd be swinging if they hadn't made that illegal." he hit back, he had calmed down but he was still cold. "You're the guilty one, you're ruining my life on an assumption." Ruby snapped at him. The officer just laughed at her, and then fell silent for the rest of the drive.
He forcefully dragged her from the vehicle when they arrived at the station, just about throwing her through the doors. "Got a murdered here, killed a shopkeeper in cold blood!" he announced loudly, hauling her over to get her registered on the police database. "I'm innocent!" Ruby shouted. "Do you want me to gag you?" asked another officer. She glared at him "What's wrong wi…" she was cut off as something was forced into her mouth. Ruby continued to glare at the officers, unable to speak she just asked herself. Since when were police allowed to gag people? What the hell was wrong with the police? Who the hell was the guy with the hat?
Weiss was sitting in the back of her private limo, she was being driven around Vale City. She took in all the sites of this new city, it differed greatly from what she was used to back home in Atlas. She was snapped out of her thought when her scroll started ringing, she picked it up and answered. "Hello Father." she said. "I have your final test, someone is attacking our Vale HQ. Get there now and stop them." her father ordered. "It shall be done." she said before hanging up. "Klein, take me to HQ." she ordered her driver. The man nodded "As you wish, Mistress Schnee."
The vehicle pulled up in front of the destination. Looking out of the window Weiss saw an angry looking man trying to force his way in. "Wait here Klein." she ordered as she opened her door and stepped out. She shut pulled drew the knife that she always carried with her, as she much preferred blades to firearms. The man was distracted and it took him a while to notice her approach. He spun around, showing that he had a knife of his own. "There you are, the Schnee bitch." he hissed.
"My name is Weiss, and I'm going to ask you once. Leave now, and never come back." she said as she moved in closer. "I'm not going anywhere!" he shouted as he lunged at her. Weiss jumped back, allowing the blade to swing harmlessly in front of her. "Stay still!" he demanded. "And let you stab me, I don't think so." she retorted.
The man was getting even angrier "Die!" he shouted as he made a stab at her. Weiss dipped her head to the side and dodged. Slicing the man across the chest with her own weapon, he winced in pain but kept attacking. He adjusted his grip and continued trying to slash at Weiss, he kept getting close. But Weiss had trained in hand to hand combat for years, she dodged every attack. "One more chance, give up and I'll let you go." she said.
The man shook his head and spat at her. "Stop talking Schnee!" he demanded. In that moment the man had stopped attacking, creating an opening for Weiss. She thrust her blade forward and plunged it into his gut. He gritted his teeth and slashed her face. Blood ran over Weiss' eye and she winced in pain, but she couldn't let that beat her. She needed to kill this man, or she would never take over from her father. So, she tightened her grip on the life that was still lodged in her opponent and dragged it across his body. He screamed in pain and dropped to his knees, as his organs emerged from the deep gash.
Weiss was breathing heavily at this point "I gave you a chance, this is your doing." she told the man as he tried to hold everything in. "You will pay for this." he growled at her. She shook her head "Maybe one day I will, but not yet." Weiss prepared to finish him off, with a slash to the throat. But she was blinded by the searchlight of a police helicopter. "Weiss Schnee, you are under arrest. We have you surrounded, get on your knees and drop the weapon!" Someone shouted through a megaphone.
The street was flooded with police vehicles, within seconds. So, Weiss complied. Throwing her knife to the side and dropping to her knees. A SWAT team approached her, ready to shoot if she tried anything. But Weiss wasn't stupid, and didn't try anything. She told herself that her family would bail her out, or at least she hoped they would. Putting her hands behind her back, she allowed herself to be handcuffed.
She watched as Klein was dragged from the limo, he stupidly put up a fight. He had always been very protective of Weiss, and it was only being ordered to not interfere, that had stopped him from aiding in her test. But now, he was trying to fight the police for her. So, they opened fire on him. He was dead before he hit the ground.
Meanwhile, several officers ran over to provided medical assistance to the man Weiss had been fighting. An ambulance arrived and he was hauled into the back of it, while Weiss was shoved into a police car. "Finally, we get a Schnee." an officer said as he climbed into the driver's seat. "Daddy can't help you now." he continued. Weiss scowled "Whatever, can someone at least deal with my eye? I'm sure you don't appreciate me bleeding all over the place." The officer laughed "That's very considerate of you, I see they were right about Schnees being polite."
"Thank you, but you haven't answered my question." Weiss replied. "Well, it would make us look bad if we left you like that. So, someone will deal with it when we get to the station." he told her. Weiss nodded "Good."
"You really did a number of that guy." the officer said. "I was merely acting in self defense. Just like Klein." she replied. "First, I wouldn't count disemboweling someone, self defense. Second, I'm assuming that guy we shot was Klein. If that's right, then he was stupid to act in so called self defense." the officer replied. Weiss sighed "Fine, but did you really have to shoot him? Couldn't you have just tased him?" The officer laughed "We stopped doing that a while ago, in this city you shoot or you get shot. You're lucky nobody put a bullet in you."
When they arrived at the police station, Weiss strode confidently into the building with the officer escorting her. She was in a lot of pain and she was saddened by the death of Klein. But Schnees do not show emotion, even in the face of death.
Blake stood on the roof of a train. "We're going to blow this thing up, to make a statement." The Bull Faunus in front of her said. "But there are people on this train Adam. We don't kill innocent people." she told him. Adam smiled "I know there are people on this train, but human is innocent." he replied. "I can't let you do this Adam." Blake snapped at him "That sounds like treachery to me Blake, are you really going to disobey me?" he asked. "You've become a monster, you've twisted the White Fang. I cannot support you anymore." She said.
Adam became enraged, slamming his fist into Blake's face "You aren't doing this to me, my love. We're going to blow this train up, and then I'm taking you for some reeducation." he said maliciously, as he towered over her. "No!" she shouted as she shoved him. Adam slapped her backhandedly, knocking her down. "Then you will die too!" he shouted before picking her up, and throwing her from the train.
Blake was powerless to stop herself, as she flew from the train. She didn't know if she wanted to live or die. All she knew was that Adam was about to kill a lot of innocent people, and she was powerless to stop him. Of course, she stopped thinking altogether when she slammed into the ground by the tracks. She was knocked out cold by the impact.
Blake's eyes shot open, and the first thing she saw was horrific. It chilled her to her core, and that was rare for her. She had seen many horrific things in her life, she had even killed on a few occasions. But, this was too much. In the distance she could see the burning wreckage of a derailed train. She could hear the screams of the victims, she even saw a few people running around engulfed in flames. Until the smoke and flames eventually took them.
She wanted to get up and run, but her body was too smashed up to allow it. Her legs and arms were all broken, and it felt like she had a few broken ribs too. So, she lay there and was forced to suffer through the horrific aftermath of Adam's actions. Soon the screaming stopped, as the flames spread and a number of small explosions tore through the surviving carriages. "Adam, what have you done?" she quietly said.
All manner of emergency vehicles arrived at the site, they were too late to save anyone but the fire had to be dealt with and the bodies needed to be recovered. They must have know that it wasn't an accident, as police helicopters circled overhead and officers scoured the area. There was no way that Blake could hide, so she just waited to be caught. It didn't take long for the police to find her. For a moment they thought the badly injured girl was a survivor, but then they saw her outfit and the shattered White Fang mask lying next to her.
"You did this." An officer said. "I...tried to stop it." Blake replied. "Why should I believe you?" he asked. Blake sighed "You don't have to, go ahead and punish me for this. I just want you to know that the one responsible is still out there." He looked down at her "Even if you didn't do this, you're still wanted and you're still going down for it. But, since you're so willing. Why don't you tell me who did this?" he asked. "Adam Taurus, his name is Adam Taurus." she blurted out. "I appreciate the cooperation, but that doesn't absolve you." the officer said. "I know, I accept that." she replied before blacking out from the pain.
When Blake woke up again, she was in the back of an ambulance with armed police standing over her. "Oh, the terrorist is awake." one of the officers said when he noticed. "Don't worry about it, she hasn't got any fight left and she couldn't fight anyway." the officer who found her responded. "It's a shame she chose that path, I mean look at her." the first officer said. "She can hear you." he was reminded.
The officer who had commented on her appearance looked down at Blake and then back to the other officer. "I don't care if a terrorist knows that I think she's hot. I'm sure that's the last thing on her mind right now." The other officer sighed "I'm not going to bother questioning the first part of what you said. But, I can agree that she has other things on her mind right now. Don't you?" he asked as he looked at Blake. "Yes, I don't care what happens to me. But please, bring Adam down. As you say, I'm a terrorist. I've done terrible things, but Adam is so much worse." she answered before falling silent again.
"I never thought I'd see the day, when a terrorist developed a conscience." one officer said to the other. The other officer nodded "Hey, what's your name? So, we can tell Adam who ratted him out, when we catch him." he asked Blake. She sighed "Blake Belladonna." The officers gasped "Any relation to Ghira Belladonna?" one of them asked. Blake gave a slight nod, that caused her immense pain. "He's my father." The officers looked at each other "This is big, we just caught the daughter of the White Fang's founder." One of them said, getting a nod from the other.
When the ambulance arrived at the hospital, Blake was wheeled in with a police escort. "Once you're all healed up, you're going to jail." An officer told her. She sighed "That's better than I deserve."
Yang sat in her mother's office. "So, whose face do you want me to break today?" she asked. Raven smirked "Eager for a fight. That's my girl." Yang smiled back "It's what I do. So, who is it?" she asked again. "Junior has been revealing our secrets, I want you to pay him a little visit. Don't leave him still breathing this time, and deal with those girl's of his." Raven explained.
Yang cracked her knuckles "Great, I'm sick of the Malachite Twins. Shame about Junior though, I'll have to find a new punching bag." she said as she got to her feet. "Any special instructions, or can I just use my fists?" she asked. Raven sighed "I do love it when you beat them to death, but please at least take a gun this time. Your strength is undeniable, but you're not invincible. So, if you need to attack from range, to avoid being shot. Just shoot them." Yang nodded "Fine mom, I'll take one. Don't expect it to see any action though, unless I decide to use it as a club." Raven laughed "I almost feel bad for Junior." she said as Yang left the room.
Yang picked up and SMG, as she made her way out of the building. She slung it over her shoulder, as she climbed onto Bumblebee. "Don't want to get a head injury, before I give a few out." she said as she put her helmet on and revved up the yellow and black bike. She quickly turned the bike around, and pulled a wheelie before speeding off down the street.
She weaved in and out of the traffic, eliciting several honks from annoyed and worried drivers. In her helmet, Yang was smiling at the thrill of riding so fast and dangerously. She was completely unfazed by the aggression of the drivers she passed. She laughed "Oh, you wouldn't be honking so much if a opened fire on you." Here thought went to the weapons she had dangling over her shoulder. She couldn't use her strength to take out a driver, which was one of the only reasons why she would ever carry a gun. Up close and personal was Yang's preferred way of killing.
She soon arrived in a shady area of town, and in a place like Vale City. A shady area, was about as safe as a war-zone. In other words, it was Yang's idea of paradise. She could beat as many people to death as she wanted, and either nobody would tell the police, or the police would find out and be too scared to do anything. The other good thing about that part of the city, was the location of Yang's favorite bar.
The entrance to Junior's was down an alley, past some dumpsters with questionable contents. Well, questionable to people who weren't familiar with the smell of rotting corpses. "I wonder if I have anything to do with what's in there?" She asked herself as she approached the metal door. "Who am I kidding? I must of put at least one of those people in there." she laughed to herself before knocking on the door.
A large man in a black suit looked through opened a hatch in the door. He sighed "Junior doesn't want you here." Yang laughed "Junior's not in charge anymore." Before the man could even respond, Yang kicked the door in. The impact broke his nose, and knocked him out simultaneously.
Yang walked in and made her way down stairs, she kicked another door open and shouted "Junior! I'm Back!" The music stopped, and everyone in the room turned to her, with fear in their eyes. The man behind the bar looked up "What are you doing here? You're banned." Yang shook her head "I hear you've been a very bad boy. I'm going to have to punish you." She walked over to the bar, but two girls stood in her way.
"Leave now Blondie." the two girls ordered. Yang smirked "Oh look everyone, the Malachite bitches think they can stop me." She picked both girls up by their necks "This is going to be so much fun." she said as she slammed their heads together and dropped them. Stepping over the unconscious girls, she reached Junior.
She grabbed the man by the collar of his shirt and smashed his head into the bar. Then she dragged him over it, wrapped her arm around his neck, and used her free hand to grab her SMG. Everyone conscious person in the bar, had guns trained on her. "Bad idea." she told them before spraying them with her special incendiary rounds.
One by one, each person either dropped dead or burst into flames. However, I few managed to return fire. Unfortunately, for Junior. He soaked up everything that could be thrown at Yang, until there was nobody left to fire at her. Yang sighed "Aww, I wanted to kill him." Then she shrugged, dropped his body and stomped his head into mush.
The terrified Malachite twins looked up at her, she winked at them. "Your turn." They tried to back away but she was on them in seconds. First to go was Militia, she was pinned down and Yang bounced her head off the ground until she forgot how to speak. Yang finished her off with a snapped neck. Melanie almost made it outside, but Yang wasn't letting that happen. She sprinted after her, catching her on the stairs. She grabbed her legs and threw her to the bottom. A satisfying crack, told Yang that the girls neck had broken. Yang grinned.
But her face soon dropped. She made it into the ally, and came face to face with a wall of SWAT officers, in a firing position. "Surrender now Branwen!" they demanded. Yang shook her head, and dived back inside. She sprinted downstairs, but as she ran through the door at the bottom. She was tackled by several officers who had found another way in. She put up a hell of a fight, guaranteeing a trip to the hospital for a few officers. But they managed to knock her out, and restrain her.
Well, I hope you liked it. But feel free to tear me to shreds in the reviews if it sucks. Will be updating this whenever I can, but I'm definitely focusing on quality not quantity. If anyone, has read my space story, and don't despise it. I'll be going back to that later, but right now. This is what I want to do. Enough of my usual rambling, see you later if you decide to come back.
