"Go faster, Ruby!" Jaune shouted to the red blur of petals.
Ruby went faster.
"Faster!"
Ruby went faster.
"Faster!"
Ruby went faster.
"Faster!"
Ruby went faster.
"Faster!"
Ruby went faster.
"Faster!"
Ruby went faster, and wavered.
"Fa- Crap!"
Ruby slumped over, but before she hit the ground, Jaune caught her.
She looked up at him with teary sliver eyes, she coughed blood, and croaked out. "I-i'm not f-fast enough."
"Shh, it alright. You were definitely faster this time." Jaune comforted with a smile.
Ruby always liked that smile, it made her heart beat funny.
But, now that's it's paired with cold and emtpy blue eyes, the reason her heart sped up, was fear.
A warm sensation fills her body, as Jaune uses his Semblance.
He picks her up, and stands her.
"Again." He demanded.
"P-please let me rest." Ruby demanded, weakly.
"Again, Ruby." Jaune didn't change his mind. "All are friends are dead, Ruby. They died following you, Ruby. Now, go faster. Fast enough to break Time. Remember? We read about it in that comic book. Do that, and we'll have our friends back. We'll be heroes. Don't you want that, Ruby? Being Heroes, saving our friends? Go faster, Ruby."
Ruby ran.
"Faster!"
Ruby went faster.
"Faster!"
Ruby went faster.
"Faster!"
Ruby went Fast.
But not Fast enough.
{End. (?)}
