Nothing much to say but here is Chapter 7…

Also, I'll be doing Twitch Livestreams almost every Saturday since Summer is here and I have a lot of time on my hands... The first stream will be June 9th at 4PM CST since I was going to do it earlier but I had to write a lot of stuff. You can find the link to my channel on my profile


Ruby

I woke up in the morning with a strange feeling. What kind of dream did I just have? All I remember from it is me chasing a pack of grimm and… oh that's right. I was killing people. I thought and kicked myself in the head mentally. I was thinking about my weird dream until I noticed someone staring at me. "Good morning." It was Blake who had greeted me.

"Morning Blake." I said in a tired voice and yawned.

"That's strange; I thought you would sound energetic."

I shrugged. "Well sorry about that, I just had a weird dream and I feel drained from all the worrying yesterday. That reminds me, I'm going to see professor Ozpin if he's found where Weiss is." I got up and began to change into my combat attire until I heard someone yawning loudly. I turned around and saw Yang getting up. "Morning sis."

She groaned. "Morning Ruby… what time is it?" she asked.

"Two hours before noon." I answered.

"That's early in my case but now seems like a good time to tell you girls something." My blonde sister looked like a mess. Her long, blonde hair was sticking up in some places and it was covering part of her face. I also noticed that she was not in her nightwear; instead she wore a yellow hoodie and black pants. She went out to look for some bad guys. I thought and groaned silently. She would only wear that set of clothing if she wanted to beat some baddies in some sort of incognito way.

At the end of my thinking, I decided not to ask what she was doing and ask what she wants to tell us. "What is it Yang… something wrong?" Blake asked in her normal tone, a nonchalant voice I would say.

"I may have found Weiss."

My eyes widened. "You did?!"

"I have evidence!" she exclaimed in a voice filled with confidence. Yang pulled out her scroll and played an audio recording.


Get the hell off of me lady!

This is probably the bad guy, I sighed.

Not until you tell me where this woman is hiding at!

Yang at this moment pulled out a photograph of Cinder Fall. I was about to open my mouth and ask but I thought it was best not to indulge on the topic.

I-I don't know who she-

His voice was replaced with a scream of pain. "Let me guess, you broke one of his arms?" I asked. Yang smiled and nodded in agreement.

"You know me so well Ruby." she said, then we continued to listen.

Stop lying! Tell me the truth or you'll lose your other arm too!

Okay! Okay! Fine, she's close to the outskirts of Vale, hunkered up in some warehouse! Now please don't hurt me!


Yang stopped the audio recording and glanced at us. "That's my evidence… a warehouse close to the outskirts of Vale. This guy said that that's where Cinder is hiding out."

I gave her a look of concern. "What if it's a fake location?" I asked.

"I thought the same too Ruby… but this is all we have at the moment and I just want to make sure that it's true." she said, her voice shaky.

I put a hand on her shoulder and smiled. "I know you want Weiss back and I understand, I would do the same if it were you or Blake…" I closed my eyes and thought for a moment. I can't shake this feeling… that it could be it, half of me doesn't want to agree on checking it out but the other half says to go for it. I opened my eyes and decided on what I wanted to do. "Let's go." Blake was about to object but I lifted up my hand, silencing her. "This is our only lead on where our kidnapped teammate is. I can't just ditch it and let Ozpin search further… I want to give it a shot." Yang smiled and put me in a tight hug.

"Thank you so much sis… you don't know how much this means to me." she whispered.

"I know how much it is Yang… it's Weiss we're talking about." I got up and grabbed Crescent Rose from my bed. "As always though, I can't use my… abilities." I said and sighed. After the horrible events that took place last year, I always wanted to try out my combat as a beowolf but for the sake of my safety and to make sure whatever happened that year will never happen again, I have been told by Ozpin himself to never use it.

I felt saddened by that but I should know that I can still do a lot of justice without it. Yang gave a pat on my shoulder. "I wish you could, I think it's awesome."

I got excited. "I know right? Just imagine myself running around town, bringing the bad guys down as a beast, just like those monster movies we used to watch." I may have matured but my fantasies never seem to fade, and I want to keep it that way.

Blake laughed. "Okay Ruby, enough daydreaming, let's go and get our partner back."

My eyes widened. "Are you serious, I thought that you thought this was a bad idea?"

She shrugged. "Well she's your sister's chill pill and family to all of us so why should I say no?"

"That's true." I smiled. "Well, let's not keep Weiss waiting then." My sister was already ready with her shot-gauntlets on her wrists while Blake went to grab Gambol Shroud. Crescent Rose was already resting on my back.

"Just to be sure, are you girls seriously ready for this?" Yang asked. We both gave her a nod of approval and then she took the lead as we walked out. Whatever that warehouse was in store for us, I hope that it'll be something good and not a trap. I get the feeling that Yang is going to fall apart if she doesn't get Weiss back; I have to worry about her and the ice princess herself. She's my sister and sister-in-law and I want to make sure they are safe for their sakes. I went back to thinking about Blake's story about what had happened at the Schnee manor, she said that Cinder knew her because of the White Fang. This worries me in some way I don't know of… I got a bad feeling about all of this.


Before we walked any farther than a few feet away from our dorm, Blake pulled up a question. "Shouldn't we wait until nightfall so we won't be seen as easily?" Yang groaned, her impatience kicking in but I put a hand on her shoulder.

"Now that she said that, I think that would be the best idea." I replied.

"Okay fine, we'll go at night." Yang said, her voice filled with defeat.

"Good, now let's actually go to classes for once, we haven't been able to focus on that because of the Weiss situation." I groaned at that statement. Great, now I have to deal with a load of assignments.

"Catch up day… fantastic." I muttered under my breath and began walking in the opposite direction.

"Other way." Yang said, and then I turned back around and smiled in embarrassment.

"I knew that." We may have a dire situation on our hands, but we still have time for work… I guess.


Sorry for the long absence, school ended then I ended up with a temporary writer's block and my computer stopped working for two days, but I'm up and running again. Hopefully the writer's block didn't affect the quality of this chapter…
