Author Notes: Just to get you up to speed this continues from the end of VOL 3 however Jaune, Ren and Nora didn't go meet/unite Ruby. She left alone because of the following:
Chapter One: The Whispers
It's been about a week since all the death has corrupted and scarred my soul. I have no more emotions besides this pent up anger that I can't get out. Sometimes I just wake up crying so hard I can't breathe. I just… I can't handle this anymore! I just want it to be over. This is just like one really long nightmare.
A low whisper hits my ear. "Ruuby… Ruuubbbyyy…" Is someone standing right next to me? It's probably yang.
I lazily wave my arm in the air to signal dismissal "Go away. Yang five more minutes."
"Aww how cute, you little innocent little girl. 'The woman sucks her teeth' Too bad we'll have to kill your family after we're done with you" * Maniacal Laughter * "Now do me a favor… WAKE UP!"
I jump up scared out of my mind "What the hell?" I sweep the room left and right searching for a person to be by my bedside but to no avail. There is no one else in my room besides me.
"Confused? Expected for a little girl like you to be."
Why is she talking like she knows me? "Who are you?" How the hell is this person talking to me when no one is here, am I going insane?
"Oh me? Well right now I'm just a messenger, but later.. oh later. Lets just say 'her voice drops down to a grim, husky tone' we will be the best of friends."
"You don't sound like the best "friend" I could have. How the hell are you talking to me anyways?"
"Oh that you will find out soon, real soon. You wanna find me? Meet me at that bitch's grave."
Is she talking about…
"Oh don't play dumb you know who I'm talking about. I was talking about your mother… HAHAHAHAH"
"How dare you talk about her like that, have you no respect!" Jesus I sound like Weiss.
There is no response, just me left alone in my thoughts, which right about now isn't as safe as it was before.

After thinking about it for a while, I put on my combat outfit and sneak out of the house. Taking the long walk to my mother is a very… interesting one. So many questions, who is she, why does she hate my mother, does anyone else know about her like Dad or uncle Qrow? I guess there is only one way to get answers.
Arriving at the grave I see well changes. It looks very different, maybe it's just the distance. I walk closer "Oh no…" my mother's name is etched out and has more than enough disrespectful things there than were needed to get the mystery woman's message across.
"No….mom?"
I drop to my knees in tears.

As I get up I hear growls and branches snap. I guess I've been too… grimm? Hehe, ok that was a horrible pun even for me. Goddamn it Yang! This is the worst time for a pun! I think I've found a new type of cancer. I pull out Cresent Rose waiting for the Beowolf to charge me but it doesn't. I slowly walk towards it but it just observes me. I slowly aim my weapon towards it. About to pull the trigger it slowly comes closer to me and bows it's head.
"Whhaaaaattt?" It's not attacking me? I put my hand on it's head and pet it.
"Wow your fur is surprisingly soft' I go into a squeaky baby voice' did you know that? Yes you did! Who's a good boy?" It rolls over on its back. The red streaks down its back turns into a light blue or maybe turquoise. It looks to its left at a speed so fast my semblance can't even beat. "What is it?"
Soon I see a horde of Grimm of all kinds stampeding toward me. Ursai, Beowolfs, some sort of spider?
"Oh you gotta be kidding me! Hey you reader, yea you! This is the time when the action music kicks up so yea. Could you do that? Thanks!"
"Wolfy stay here" He gives me the coldest of stares Weiss can't even beat. "What, you don't like it? How about J…" The spider Grimm has shot a web at me that I barely dodge.
"How rude you know that, I was in the middle of a conversation!" I transform my scythe into the CHISR (Customizable High Impact Sniper Rifle) and shoot the spider and the two Grimm closest to me. "See! Look what you've made me do, actually that will be a lot more difficult considering you don't have a head anymore. Sorry about that!"
I run into the horde and make a straight B-Line through them slicing the most of the Ursai in two covering the floor in blood and guts. A Beowolf gathers the courage to run at me and without hesitation I sidestep out of the way causing it to stumble, which gives me the opportunity to decapitate it in one swift movement. It's head flies into the air and I catch it, "Hey I think you're missing something. HAHAHA!" I turn around slowly and flash my most sinister look toward the Grimm that was left. "Who's next?"
The Grimm scurry and flee "Hmm! Bunch of wimps.". Walking back to my wolf friend he gives me a look of confusion.
"What's that look for? I could've taken em."
I turn to walk back to the cabin and ponder what I will do when I get back.

End: After A bit I just started to ramble so I thought to cut it here. So how did you like my first ever chapter? Was it good? Was it bad? Most likely the second one, either way like, review and give me feedback.
