For team RWBY the day had started off normal enough. The team had woken up and gotten dressed for classes, went to breakfast and ate then headed to classes, then they had lunch and went back to classes. Classes were over for the day and now the team headed to the Emerald Forest with the intention of killing Grimm to relieve stress from the day.
"Ten bucks says I get the most kills" Yang confidently bet
"I'll take that action" Ruby said "Weiss?"
"I refuse to waste my lien on such a juvenile bet" the Ice Queen responded
"I think I'll sit this bet out too" Blake added
"Lame" Yang commented
As soon as they got to the Emerald Forest, the girls got to work. They cut, bashed, slashed, stabbed, and just eliminated every Grimm that they saw. Their teamwork was flawless, some of the best in Beacon. The same couldn't be said for another team nearby in the Emerald Forest. That team had some of the worst teamwork in Beacon. ISKL was one of the lowest rated first year teams in Beacon almost completely due to their abysmal teamwork.
Technically the leader was named Ice Onyx but she didn't lead. In addition to being painfully shy, Ice was a Faunus on a team of three guys who hate Faunus. All she wanted was to help people but that wasn't easy with her team. In addition to Ice's crippling shyness, her opinions and commands were never listened to. Ice's teammates did whatever they wished and always treat Ice as if she were subhuman. Most nights she wasn't even allowed to sleep in her own dorm room. Today team ISKL wanted to kill some Grimm and Ice was dragged along in case a Faunus shield was needed which it was. The team had been overrun by Grimm and were running away but the creatures were catching up.
"Hey mutt, I think I know how you could be useful" Ice's partner said
"H-How?" Ice asked excitedly as her ears perked up.
"Finally I can help" she thought
Ice tripped on her partner's warhammer. Ice's partner had stopped and the Faunus looked up in horror as her partner brought his hammer down on her legs, instantly breaking them.
"See ya mutt" Ice's partner said as the Faunus let out a blood curtling scream
Team RWBY was just outside of the range of Ice's scream but thankfully Blake's ears could pick it up.
"Some girl's in trouble" Blake informed her team and took off running in a straight line towards the source with her team following
Ruby used her semblance to run ahead and found a silver haired goth Wolf Faunus crawling away from a lot of Grimm. The girl had tears on her face and was full out sobbing as she crawled. A beowolf lept up and was about to land on Ice's back when it was cut in half by a scythe. Ice thought for sure she was dead but she wasn't. As she turned around, the Faunus saw what she thought was a mix between the grim reaper, an angel, and a fairy tale character. The blood that soaked her dress gave away that Ice was heavily injured. Ruby kept on slashing and shooting Grimm until her teammates arrive on the scene.
"Get her out of here you dunce" Weiss said
"Oh, right" Ruby replied as she put away Crescent Rose, then picked up Ice and ran the now unconscious girl back to the infirmary of Beacon.
Ice had lost a lot of blood when Ruby last saw her and it has been hours since the nurses and doctors took her away. The rest of RWBY had shown up by now and they were waiting for when they could see Ice. They would have left and come back tomorrow since it was late but the doctor told them one detail. Ice's legs were broken by a hammer. Grimm don't use hammers.
"So, who do you think did it?" Yang asked
"What?" Ruby asked as she snapped out of her train of thought
"Someone had to break her legs, Grimm don't just use hammers" Weiss added
"It was her team" Blake stated
"What?!" the other three asked
"I could hear them laughing about how their pathetic mutt leader was finally of use. It took everything in me to stay and fight the Grimm instead of tracking them down to give them what they deserve"
"We need to report them to Professor Ozpin" Weiss stated
"I already did" Blake responded "I had one of my clones tell him on the way here"
"I hope they get expelled" Weiss said "it's appalling how they treated their own teammate let alone their leader"
RWBY sat their in silence, contemplating how glad they are for each other being who they are.
"Excuse me, are you friends with Miss Onyx?" a nurse asked the team
The four girls sent each other a look that showed they don't know a Miss Onyx. Ruby vaguely remember seeing a tattoo Ice had. It went up her left arm and said 'Heart of Ice' and one that went up her right arm that said 'Body of Onyx'. The words had been very stylized which is why Ruby noticed them.
"Are you talking about Ice?" Ruby asked
"Yes" the nurse said
"Is she okay?" Ruby asked as her team sat silently
"You...should see for yourself" the nurse said and took Ruby to Ice's room.
The pretty girl with silver hair sat in her hospital room, staring at the moon that complimented her perfectly. Ruby walked into the room and the first thing she noticed was that Ice's black eye shadow was running. The next thing was Ice's lack of legs.
"A-Are you the one who saved me?" Ice asked with a voice like silk
"Yeah, my name is Ruby. How are you doing?" Ruby nervously asked
"Well, I've been better. Y-Y'know, lost my legs and all" Ice stuttered
"I'm so sorry" Ruby apologized
"N-No! Y-You didn't do anything" Ice reassured as she frantically waved her hands
Ruby sat down in the chair by in the room.
"So your name is Ice Onyx?" Ruby asked
"Y-Yes. D-Do you think you could come here? I need your help with something" Ice asked
"Sure" Ruby said as she got up and stood at Ice's bedside
"C-Closer please?" Ice beckoned
Ruby obliged and leaned in as if she was about to whisper a secret into Ice's ear. Suddenly Ice turned her head and pushed her lips against Ruby's. Both girls were blushing furiously as they both had their first kiss. It only took Ruby three seconds to pull back and panic at her first kiss being taken.
"W-W-What was that?!" Ruby yelled
"I-Is that not custom around here? Where I c-c-come from a kiss symbolises dedicating your life to whoever you kissed. It's most commonly used to symbolize the intention to repay a life debt like I just used it for. Without you I would not have a life, I now must serve you for as long as I live my mistress"
"Y-You don't have to do that" Ruby reassured Ice while still getting over her first kiss being taken
"Are you sure mistress?" Ice asked as if she had been greatly offended
"Y-Yeah" Ruby hesitated
"Then can you help m-me to the r-roof?" Ice requested
"Whyyyyyyyyyyy?" Ruby asked suspiciously
"Once a master deems their servant is no longer of use or when the master dies that means the life debt has been fulfilled and it is the final duty of the servant to take their life"
"Oh my god that's awful" Ruby gasped
"Well m-my village is the only one to exist outside the kingdoms for over a hundred years, they must be doing something right. Besides if I don't, I can never return home. My options are to serve you for the rest of your life and then die, or I die now"
"W-Well maybe having a servant wouldn't be that bad" Ruby reasoned
Ice smiled for the first time in weeks.
"Thank you mistress"
"W-Well I better go for the night, mind if I come back tomorrow?" Ruby asked
"Of course not mistress"
Ruby left Ice to rest who passed out immediately when Ruby was gone.
"How'd it go?" Yang asked as her sister returned
"I lost my first kiss and got a servant" Ruby responded
"...What?!" the three girls asked
You like? I need to know if you like
