In the darkness of the eternal abyss that was my fate, a light shined to show my path. People who I loved, treasured, and respected torn away at the dream of another. But this light...seemingly endless and bright, never stopped its thirst to avenge those who I so loved. I think of it as an monster in a cage, waiting for its chance to escape. The inner beast inside me.
I can never forgive that person, nor forget what they did that day. Where the sky turned red and the sun turned black. When that person's dream overcame her own mind. Every time I remember that day, the brighter the light of revenge gets. Like wood being added to a fire.
Revenge is only truly great when the person you trusted as a sister, tore the world apart because of a simple desire. The worries that the person may never complete their dream, will cause her to leave morals and rights behind. I never thought something could be so powerful before the red eclipse.
But today, I put the fire of revenge out as the solution draws near.
"Ruby," she said, "Ruby wake up!"
I opened my eyes to see my companion leaning over me. The wet rain hitting me through the branches of the tree I lay under. I reach for my newly forged weapon that lays beside the bag I keep for inventory. Putting my weapon in its harness, I stand up and look back at my companion.
"It's time Blade, we're done chasing her. Today I get my revenge, the goal I've struggled to achieve since two years ago at the eclipse. And once I'm done with her, The Order is next."
Blade looked at me with excitement and thrill. She was the only one I could trust in this world now. Ever since I escaped the eclipse she took me under her wing. With Beacon gone and my friends, she was all I had left to love in this destroyed life. Her blue armor and hair made me remember the past with Yang and Blake. I could never leave her.
"Ruby, I know how we've gone through a lot together, but I just want to tell you. If we die today... I want to let you know, I love you."
I looked in awe, then smiled and said, "I love you too Blade."
She moved closer and kissed me. I closed my eyes as my love grew stronger. This girl has sacrificed more than her life for me, but I never though I could do anything for her. But I realized I gave her something to care for, and that she had known it all along.
Blade stopped and said, "It's time."
I nodded as I grabbed my gear and walked back onto the path of revenge.
For these past years my objective of revenge is coming to an end. This time no one will die, and the lives of those who did shall be avenged. This is for Yang, Blake, Nora, and everyone else dear to me.
Weiss, it's going to end today.
