I don't own RWBY it belongs to its respected owners. I got this idea from The Legend of Ruby by Rassilon001.
"This is talking."
*This is thinking.*
{This is ghost talking and only Ruby can hear them. If they can be seen then the sine for talking.}
^This means a story catheter of Ozpin's story is talking.^
Enjoy.
Many years have passed since the day Yang saw Summer and the other that save her and Ruby. Which she kept on telling her Dad and Uncle about it and the two ended up getting someone to talk to her which made Ruby scared to tell anyone about her semblance because she didn't want to be treated as a weird child. Which after a year Yang let it go and started to think it was all a dream and the family moved on. When Ruby was old enough to start going to Signal. Ruby started to learn how to use a scythe from her dad. But at times he would be gone for a long time looking for Ozpin or any news about Salem. When that happened Ozpin and the others would help her with her training.
Like today they were in the woods and Ozpin was standing in front of 15 year old Ruby ready for their fight. Summer was standing in between the two. {Alright begin!}
Ruby started to punch and kick Ozpin doing a lot better than she did when she first started. Ozpin dodged and started doing a few punches and kicks of his own. They kept at this for awhile until finally, Ozpin got the upper hand and kicked Ruby to a tree. "Och..."
At that moment Ozpin went back to being a ghost. {Ruby are you alright?}
"Yeah..."
Ruby then looked at the four people that no one knew was in her life. "I don't get it."
{Get what?}
"How is it that you all are bonded to me and yet I can't use any of your guy's powers or weapons for that matter!"
At hearing this Ozpin chuckled. {I think you semblance is kind of like a backup plan for those who die.}
"Backup...?"
{Yes, a backup for those who don't want to die yet. They can only live again as a living being by you and you can only bond with those who won't hurt you and can also help you along the way. That is why you don't have that many people bonded with you yet. For the most part, you need to know them before they die or the only other way for you to have them in your group is if they have light magic in them which the maidens, myself and those with your's and your mother's eyes are the only ones that have that kind of magic.}
Ruby thought about that and thought that was a good of a guess as it was going to get. Just then Ruby saw something. "Um... Ozpin?"
{Yes Ruby?}
Ruby then pointed at what she saw. "Who's that?"
Everyone looked at what Ruby was pointing at and both Ozpin and Spring's eyes widened. {Fall!}
It was indeed Fall she looked very scared. The two ran up to her with worry. {Fall what's wrong?!}
{Salem's people tried take away Fall Maiden's powers. This woman used some sort of glove on Amber that had this Grimm bug that shot some sort of web at her face. The Fall Maiden's powers just billed up at the halfway point between her and Amber. Leaving Amber but not going into her, when a man with a sword showed up and cut the web what was taken out of Amber and me ended up here.}
At hearing that Ozpin only had one thing on his mind. {I got to get to Beacon.}
Summer looked at him. {Ozpin, you can't. Even when Ruby lets us be real again we can only be so far away from her. Sure we can go anywhere on Signal Academy. But that is only if Ruby is there as well. So no Ruby no Beacon Academy. And there is also the fact that we can only be alive again if Ruby gives the okay or she is in danger.}
Ozpin looked at everyone there and then at Ruby then Ozpin had an idea in his head and smiled. {Ruby?}
Ruby looked at him in confusion. "Yeah?"
{How would you feel about becoming a student at Beacon Academy two years early?}
Ruby's eyes widen and she smiled. "Yes!"
Summer looked at Ozpin. {And how are you going to do that?}
Ozpin's smile grew. {We're going to Vale.}
Once they finally got to Vale it was night time and Summer looked at Ozpin. {So what now?}
{From what we know from the news. A man named Roman Torchwick is robbing Dust stores with some of Jr's men. We find a Dust shop that is open and we wait for him to show up. Ruby fights him and if need be we show up and help her out.}
At hearing the plan Ruby looked at Ozpin. "You didn't say anything about me letting any of you be seen. You remember what happened to Yang when she saw you guy's?"
{Yes well, that was when you were little and no one knew what your semblance is if you let me do the talking I'm sure this would be fine.}
Ruby just looked at him for a moment. "We will see... So where is this dust shop you want me to go to?"
Ozpin smiled at hearing her ask that. {This way.}
And with that, they all started to walk to the shop and as soon as they got their Ruby walked over to the magazines. She then picked up one of the weapons magazines and put on her headset and started to read the magazine. It wasn't long before a man turns her around the man motions for her to lower them. "Yes?"
"I said, put your hands in the air, now!"
"Are you... robbing me?"
"Yes!"
Ozpin sighed. {Ruby this is one of the men helping Roman that you need to fight.}
"Ooohhh..."
Said Roman is waiting for his men to finish the heist when a "Hey!" and "Hyah!" are heard, and the threatening henchman flies past him. Roman calmly motions for another to handle Ruby.
A henchman aiming his gun at her. "Freeze!"
Ruby kicked the henchman outside the shop through the window. The other men look outside as Ruby gets up and unfolds Crescent Rose into its scythe form. Roman scowls, but Ruby smiles back at them before twirling the weapon around, striking it into the ground and turning off her headphones. "Okayyy..."
He looks to his remaining henchmen. "Get her!"
The henchmen head out of the shop and run at Ruby, who spins around on top of her scythe and kicks the first approaching criminal in the face. She gets Crescent Rose out of the ground and fires it off to hit another one with the butt of her weapon, sending him flying. She fires again and brings the side down on one attacker and dodges the next's gunfire with her rifle's speed, getting close enough to knock him into the air and follow him upwards so she can beat him away to Roman's feet. "You were worth every cent. Truly, you were."
Roman then dropped his cigar and crushing it with his cane as approaching police sirens are heard. "Well, Red, I think we can all say it's been an eventful evening, and as much as I'd love to stick around... "
He then raises his cane and opens the bottom to reveal a rifle with a cross grid. "I'm afraid this is where we part ways."
Roman unleashes a red blast at Ruby.
{Ruby jump!}
Ruby fires at the ground and leaps over it. When she lands and looks up, Roman isn't there and is climbing up a ladder on a nearby building. Ruby looks at the shopkeeper. "You okay if I go after him?"
{Ruby he is getting away!}
The shopkeeper gives a short "Uh huh", and Ruby sets off.
Roman makes it to the roof, with Ruby high-flying again and landing right behind him. "Hey!"
The four looked at Ruby. {Hey? Really?}
Summer looked at Ozpin. {Are you sure she is ready for Beacon?}
{I think so...?}
{You think?!"
Roman stops at the edge. "Persistent..."
Ruby readies to fight him, but a getaway Bullhead rises up and opens the hatch to allow Roman inside. He then turns around and holding up a red Dust gem. "End of the line, Red."
He throws it out at her feet. {Ruby get out of there!}
Roman then fires at her resulting in a large explosion. Which at that moment Ozpin was able to come to life again and ran to Ruby to get her to safety not knowing that someone was going to help Ruby as well.
Roman not seeing what was going on was now laughhing. "Whoa-ho-ho-ho!"
He finally stops laughing when he sees something on the roof. "Huh?"
A woman that Ozpin knew very well is now in front of Ruby, casting a circle of protection over them with her wand. As Ruby and Ozpin look on, Glynda Goodwitch waves her weapon and summons several streaks of purple at the craft. Roman is thrown around in the back until he goes to the cockpit, where a woman in red, her face unseen, is struggling with the controls.
"We got a Huntress and an Ozpin look alike!"
*What?* The woman gets up and heads toward the back as Roman takes the controls.
Ozpin looks at the one that saved Ruby. "Glynda..."
At hearing her name Glynda turnd around and froze at seeing the man with Ruby. "Ozpin?"
"Its been awhile hasn't it?"
"Ozpin how...?"
Ozpin then saw the woman starting to show up. "Glynda behind you!"
The woman reaches the back at seeing this Glynda glows purple for a moment and aims another blast above the craft, resulting in a dark storm-cloud right over the jet.
Roman looked up and saw what was going on. "The Dust...?"
With a flick of her wand, large jagged hail starts falling that pummels the jet and even breaks through the window, narrowly missing Roman's head. At that moment the woman's arms and chest light up like fire, aiming a burst of energy at Glynda. The Huntress blocks it, but the flame splatters behind her and glows hot with the enemy's raised hand. Glynda back-flips out of the explosion, which destroys part of the roof, and magically gathers the shards to create a large arrow, which she throws at the craft. The fiery woman shatters the arrow with several blasts, but it reforms just in time to hit the side of the jet due to Roman's quick aerial lean. The wreckage separates and reshapes into more arrows that encircle the jet, but the woman summons several glowing rings around herself that expand and destroy the shards.
At that moment Summer, Spring, and Fall ran up to Glynda to help her out when May ran up to Ozpin and Ruby. "I'll stay with Ruby you go help them out."
"Right!"
Ozpin walked up to them when Fall finally recognized who the woman was by the outfit. "That is the woman that used the glove on Amber!'
At hearing that everyone looked at her in shock. "What?!"
Ozpin and the others started to attack the woman, who blocks each shot and creates several blazing circles around her many opponents. Glynda telekinetically pushes Ruby and May while rolls herself out of the explosion's radius and the others got out of the way. Everyone then looking up to see the hatch closed and the craft flies away.
Ruby looks at Glynda. "You're a Huntress!"
Ruby then puts on a pleading, awe-stricken face. "Can I have your autograph?!"
Glynda then looks at Ozpin and Summer to see that they were fading away and soon they were gone along with the other three women. Only her and Ruby were standing there or at lest by what Glynda was seeing.
Ruby's face was now one of shame as Glynda, with a tablet computer, paces around the table Ruby is seated at, right underneath a bright light in the otherwise dark room. "I hope that you realize that your actions tonight will not be taken lightly, young lady. You put yourself and others in great danger."
"They started it!"
And then looked at Ozpin which Glynda saw Ruby look at what she thought was nothing but started to think better of it. "If it were up to me, you'd be sent home... With a pat on the back..."
Glynda looks to see Ruby smiling at that "And a slap on the wrist."
Glynda then demonstrates with her wand, which Ruby barely avoids it. "Eeek!"
Summer then hits the back side of Ozpin's head. {Och!}
{This is all your fault!}
{Oh, come on Summer?! Really?!}
"But..."
The two wipped their heads to Glynda at hearing that. "Today not only did I see two of my old friends that should be dead today. One being your mother, but then saw them and three others fade away."
Ruby looked uncomfortable at this point but Glynda went on. "Now either I'm going crazy or you had something to do with that. Care to explain ?"
Ruby looked away and in a low voice said. "I don't want to end up like Yang."
Glynda heard it and gave her an odd look. "Whats your cousin have to do with this?"
Ruby looked up at Glynda and gave in. "Yang saw four of them when we were kids. Yang kept on telling Dad and Uncle Tai about it and when that happened no one would give me the chance to tell them what happened."
Glynda nodded her head to show that she got what Ruby was saying and Ruby went on. "Well, it got to the point that Uncle Tai got Yang some help..."
At hearing that Glynda's eyes widened at that putting to gather what was making Ruby scared to tell her what was going on. "They made Yang see a child psychiatrist and you became scared that they would think you were crazy and get un need help. Is that why there is no record of you having a semblance yet?"
Ruby nodded her head at that and Glynda sighed. "So I'm guessing that your semblance involves the dead."
Ruby nodded her head again and Glynda sat down. "Ruby I need to talk to Ozpin. Can I talk to him for a bit?"
Ruby looked at Ozpin who nodded his head at her. Which then Ruby then made Ozpin be seen again. Glynda looked and watched were Ruby was looking at and her eyes widen again when she saw Ozpin. "Ozpin...?"
"Yes, it's me."
"How did you end up with Ruby...?"
"As I said before its a long story and I'll try my best to explain."
Glynda nodded her head and Ozpin started to talk. "Well to start out as soon as Salem killed my last body I ended up in Ruby's room. As time passes I learn that the sword only somewhat worked to what Salem had in mind."
Both Ruby and Glynda looked at him in shock. "How so...?"
"I was meant to stay dead but not forever at some point the swords powers would wear off and I would go to a new body again."
"I see..."
"Yes, well because I'm dead for the time being and around that time Ruby semblance somehow awakened early when she was only ones year old. Which it is like a soul collector, she can't use our abilities or anything like that but she can bring us back to life for a short time. But there are a few rules that need to be followed."
Glynda raised an eyebrow at that. "What kind of rules?"
"Well for starters we can only live again as a living being by Ruby and Ruby can only bond with those who won't hurt her and can also help her along the way. That is why she doesn't have that many people bonded with her yet. For the most part, Ruby needs to know them before they die or for them to have light magic in them which the maidens, myself and those with silver eyes are the only ones that have that kind of magic."
"I see..."
"Yes, and there is also the fact that we can only be so far away from her. Sure we can go anywhere on Signal Academy. But that is only if Ruby is there as well at the time. So..."
At that moment Glynda put two and two together. "You little!"
Ozpin looked at her in confusion. "I'm sorry... What?"
"You had Ruby go to that Dust shop in hopes that Roman Torchwick would be their so I would find Miss. Rose!"
At that moment Ozpin started to walk away from Glynda at least as much as he could. "Now Glynda..."
"Don't you Glynda me! Why did you have Ruby do that now of all times?! Why not get her to have you alive in front of Qrow when she was little why now?!"
"Because one Ruby was scared to tell Qrow and two Fall told me what just happened to Amber!"
At hearing that Glynda froze. "What...?"
At that moment Ozpin sighed. "When a Maiden dies them and the first Maiden of that season goes to Ruby and both will have the power of the Maidens. When Amber was attacked the powers didn't go to Amber's attacker. But to the first Fall Maiden who then went to Ruby. When Amber really does die she and the rest of her powers will be with Ruby. Ruby can't use the powers but they are with her for safe keeping. Until Ruby dies there won't be any new maidens after they die. I knew you and the others need my help now more than ever with the mission but without Ruby, I can't get back to Beacon."
"So you want me to let her in Beacon two years early?"
"Well, Summer, the Spring Maiden, May and myself have been training her when she isn't training with Qrow or at Signal Academy."
Glynda looked at Ozpin and then at Ruby then back at Ozpin. "You are so lucky that I took over your job when you got killed or this wouldn't be happening."
Ozpin smiled at hearing that. "Thank you..."
"Oh don't thank me yet I will be talking to Qrow about this."
At hearing this Ruby looked at Glynda with a pleading and fearful look. Which Glynda saw this. "It won't be now since Qrow is out on a mission at the moment."
At hearing that made Ruby feel better about the matter and Glynda was now getting ready to leave so Ruby undid Ozpin. Which he gave her a really look which she looked at him with a yes really look. Glynda looked at Ruby and sighed. *What did I get myself into?*
