My name is Ruby Rose, former huntress in training. Yep, you heard right, former, as in i no longer will be a huntress. Why? well in order for me to tell you that, we will have to start from the very beginning. Back to that horrible day, the worst day of my life. The one that set me on this path…The day i found out about my mother's death.
As you already know my family lived in a small town in patch. It was me, Yang, mom, and dad. Yang had come from dad's previous marriage and after her real mom left dad had to find someone else, and so he married my mother. It wasn't hard to decide especially since the three of them shared a team at beacon, along with uncle Qrow, who is Yangs mother's brother, kind of funny to say actually. Anyways we had lived happily with each other, mom and dad would sometimes go out to missions since he was still a hunter and she was still a huntress, so Yang was always in charge of taking care of me. Sometimes if uncle Qrow wasn't busy either teaching at signal or on a mission himself then he would stop by and tell us some cool stories about his mission. He is so cool.
Eventually i could tell that the missions mom and dad were going to had become increasingly more difficult. So much so that they were they only ones allowed to take on the missions as well as uncle Qrow and a few others, because they were the strongest team who studied at beacon. I saw how scared they were getting, i knew that one day something bad was going to happen. I ignored it of course, i didn't want them to know that i knew how scared they were, or they will worry and be sad and we wouldn't be the happy family we always were. They tried to be happy, they surely did, but i could tell they were faking it to cover up their fear.
And so the day came. It was storming outside mom and dad were out on a mission again. Yang and I were watching tv. at one point the door slammed open and there they were. Mom was in dads arms, he was breathing heavily, both of them were soken wet, and if it wasn't for the puffy eyes, i wouldn't have been able to tell that my dad was crying all the way. Yang and I were in shock at what we were looking at.
Mom laid lifelessly in dads arms, covered in blood. I didn't want to believe what i was seeing.
"mom?" i said weakly "d-dad, w-what happened?" i ask him about to break in tears. He doesn't answer though. All he does is look down, lay her gently on the floor and start to cry. "NOOOOOOOOO!" i start to yell as i run over and bury my face in my mother's corpse.
"i-i'm sorry, i-i couldn't protect her, there were too many, i was hopeless, i failed" he says weakly crying as well. I can hear Yang crying too, and that night the house was filled with nothing but wails of sadness over my mother's death. We didn't sleep that night, and from that day on, we weren't as happy of a family as we used to be.
A couple days later, professor Ozpin set up a funeral for mom. Unfortunately we couldn't cry anymore. We dried out our tears on that one day that even if we tried to cry, nothing would come out. The most you could hear were our occasional sniffles.
A few days after the funeral dad had went to go teach at signal. Apparently uncle Qrow was caught up on a mission so he couldn't teach today and the usual sub was sick so dad had to sub in. Later Yang had gone up to me. "Ruby come with me, i am going to find mom" she tells me.
"But, mom died Yang" i say not realising who she was really talking about.
"Not your mom Ruby, my mom."
"Why?"
"Because, i want this family to be happy again, i know she is out there, she has to be, i am going to find her, ask her to come back, and then we can have a family again."
"But didn't she leave? maybe she doesn't want to be found, come on Yang, i don't think this is a good idea"
"No, she must have a reason why she left, and i am going to find out, i will have her come back, she has to come back right? it may not be a good idea but it's the only thing i can think of that will make this family happy again!" She starts tearing up "please Ruby, i don't want you to be by yourself, its not safe, you are too young to stay here alone, just come with me"
There was a moment of silence before i decide to just go with what she asks, i couldn't say no to her, she lost two mothers while i lost one, so i joined her "ok, i will go"
So we start heading out, into the snowy forest. Yang took a wagon so if i ever get tired i could sleep in it. At one point i started feeling weak, i couldn't walk anymore, i was too cold, and so i got in the wagon as Yang carried me looking for her mother. i could tell grimm were roaming around, stalking us. Waiting for us to be cornered so they could tear us apart. Soon i felt Yang stop. We found an old cabin where she though her mom was at. She starts yelling, calling out for her to come out… and then we heard it. The fear striking growl of a beowolf ready to kill us both. We were both frozen in fear, both of us unable to move for how scared we were. We wanted to run, but our body would respond to it… and so here we thought it would end. The beowolf lunged at us ready to kill us. I closed my eyes ready to take the impact… but it never came, and i heard the sound of uncle Qrows scythe as he cut it in half.
As i look at the falling limbs of the grimm i began to smile. Every drop of its blood sent a shiver of pleasure down my spine. Finally one last thing led me to realise that i have gone insane. That day i became a psycho as some would call it because of it. What you may ask. heheh, why it's very simple to figure out.
It was the voices in my head of course.
AUTHORS NOTE: BOOOOOOM, PSYCHO RUBY. I HAVE BEEN DYING TO MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND I CAN'T WAIT TO CONTINUE THIS FANFIC ESPECIALLY HOW I ALREADY KNOW HOW I WILL END IT. AND IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW, SORRY, NOT SPOILING. ANYWAYS HOPE YOU LIKED AND I WILL SEE YOU ALL LATER.
