Here it is guys. The sequel to my first story "Red Like Roses", hope you enjoy the first chapter…I might put out a few chapters like how I did the first day I published my first story. Without a further do, here is "Death From Above". Also, I NEED SOME DAMN ART. XD


Eleven months…it's been eleven months from that day on that cold winter night. I was almost killed by Roman Torchwick's accomplice I saw at the dust shop at the time of the robbery, Scarlet.


I heard a familiar voice call out to me "Ruby? Are you there?"

I opened my eyes to see that my sister Yang was on top of me "Yang…could you get off please? You might make a scene."

She got off of my bed and smiled "Today's the day."

I replied in a questionable voice "For what?" then I realized what she meant…today was her nineteenth birthday "Oh…now I remember, happy birthday Yang!" I said in a cheerful voice.

"Thank you. So, where is everyone else?"

I was nervous at the question; I looked around and noticed that none of our teammates were around "I don't know." Getting off the bed, I released a yawn since I was still tired.

Yang looked like she was thinking for the next few seconds, then she snapped her fingers like those cartoon shows we used to watch when we were just kids "I think I know where they are. Get dressed Ruby…were going to have a long day."


"All righty then, let me get my summer clothes on." In my closet, I found a pair of red sneakers and black pants…but where my red beowolf shirt is, not even in there. I called to Yang "Yang?"

She was about to walk out the door until she heard me "What is it Ruby?" She replied in an annoyed voice.

"Where is my red beowolf shirt?"

"It should be in the closet." She turned her face around like she was hiding something.

I asked her in a suspicious voice "Yang? Did you do something to my shirt?" Leaving the closet, I stood right next to her with my right foot tapping the ground…waiting for a response.

Silence took over between us then after a while she went to grab something hidden behind our weapons, she unrolled what was my shirt. My mouth opened in shock at what happened to my favorite shirt of all time "I'm so sorry sis, I was washing the clothes and I left it on for too long…it shrunk." She said in a saddened voice. Yang turned around and began to sob; no…I didn't mean to get her to cry.

I tried to comfort her "It's alright Yang, I could just buy another shirt…don't cry because of me." I caressed her beautiful golden hair, I haven't touched it before the incident at all…I don't want to talk about what happened last year to everyone, the last time I did (which was 3 months ago), everyone looked at me with an worried expression…thinking I was still traumatized.

Yang looked at me with her teary eyes and replied in a surprised voice "Really? You're not mad?"

I was still a little mad but I lied instead since I can just get over it quick "Of course not. I can't be mad at you Yang." She put me into a tight embrace which made me run out of air and thanked me "It's nothing Yang but can you please get off, you're hurting my ribs."


Yang went back to her peaceful self and went back to finding Weiss and Blake…everyone changed so much. Weiss was nicer to me and Blake talked a tiny bit more frequently than she did before, Yang didn't change as much but we were closer than we were. I followed her to the garden that had the white, bloody rose…I remember what happened here, I will never forget that letter that was next to it before.


"I will end you and the rest of your team…including your sister."

Much hate…Scarlet.


Yang noticed that I was looking at the bloody thing and she said in a calm voice "It's over…were going to be ok Ruby."

I felt like something was wrong "It's not just that…something doesn't feel right. I know it's over but I feel like something or someone is going to come for us, I just don't know who yet."

She punched my shoulder which made me whimper a bit since it hurt "Don't think that Ruby…think on the positive side, were here for you no matter what."

"Ok Yang, I'll try to think positive." We walked around to see if we can find our missing teammates, no sign of them. As we kept on searching, my mind became clear I feel like someone's just waiting for the right moment. I thought. I'm starting to think that my safety is going to become compromised soon.


I feel like this is a weak chapter to start but that's chapter one guys. Leave a review to tell me if it was a good start or a bad start…I'll leave it to you all to give me your opinions. I'm done for tonight so see ya guys later. :D
