A/N: So I lied. This chapter did take a week, but I have actual reasons this time. My family was going on a road trip to visit my grandparents, so I figured I would write this chapter on the drive their and back. However, about an hour into the trip, as I was thinking of starting to write, the truck hit some ice and ran into the ditch. That kinda derailed my plans. Then, I was going to write this yesterday and try to be funny with "It didn't take a week" but then I went onto Roosterteeth's site and got the bad news that Monty Oum had passed away. That kinda killed my desire to write. I still haven't really gotten it back, but I need to write this chapter just to get it done and to keep going.

Anyways, this chapter starts a little back in time, but lets just get to the story. Sorry if this chapter is shorter and not as good.

Disclaimer: In my heart, Monty still owns Rwby, no matter who actually holds the title.

Ruby Rose (earlier that morning)

She woke up and all her muddled brain could think is that something was wrong, something just did not feel right. Then it hit her, Blake was gone. After a moment of panic she realized that Blake was probably fine, she had just gone out to talk to her family who had obviously arrived earlier that morning if the sounds Ruby could hear were right.

Groaning, she quickly dressed herself in the cramped confines of the tent before dashing out to find Blake before she was forced to talk to anyone from her family. Running out of the tent, she dashed around the clearing before she made out Blake talking to two people and quickly zipped over to her.

"Mom, this is my friend Ruby" Blake said to her mom with a grimace on her face.

"Oh... a human" her mother responded "how quaint. Sorry for getting here a day late, but we picked up an extra person and that put us behind schedule, so we decided to get here bright and early this morning instead."

"Who is this person you found mother?" Blake asked "I thought the entire family was already coming?"

"Look behind you dear, and your questions will be answered" her mom told her.

Ruby turned around at the same moment as Blake and quickly forgot anything and everything that was going on around her. Her mind went blank and before she realized what was going on, she had her hand pulling Crescent Rose out and unfurling it as she raced towards the one person she would never forget, the one face that would always live in her head, the one face that might be able to help her get closure on her mothers death. If the only way it could do that was be being no longer connected to rest of the body, Ruby was more than willing to help out.

?

"Hey sis, long t-" the words died out on the newcomer tongue as she saw the little girl charging her. Her face turned into an ugly grimace and she waited until the last moment to leap over the charging shape and extend her claws. While most Faunus still use weapons to fight, some chose to instead us dust and rigorous training to instead enhance their natural traits for use in battle. The result was sharper senses, an immunity to pain for the duration of the fight, and in some cases, claws stronger than steel. She didn't recognize the girl that was attacking her, but she sure did remember the cape she had. She had seen it many times when watching that bitches house. This must be the daughter of the infamous Summer Rose, her greatest accomplishment. Killing Summer had been fun. Sure it was business, she wanted into the white fang, they gave her a mission, but she enjoyed the feeling of ripping out a humans throat and feeling the life leave her body. It now looked like she would get a chance to relive her favourite memory, and she grinned.

Ruby Rose

What had that woman done? Her claws were longer than should have been possible, and she had managed to dodge her charge. Nobody could move fast enough to dodge her semblance, or even react before she got there. The stories must be true, stories and legends of faunus who enhanced their animal side to fight. It was said that the white fang excelled at it, but nobody knew for sure, as the white fang did not talk about it, and killed anybody who tried to. However, now was not the time to be thinking about it, now was the time to fight.

With that in mind, she dug the tip of Crescent Rose into the ground and started to fire on the woman. However, she was just to agile and kept leaping over and under and around the bullets. Realizing that she would never get her at range, Ruby lifted her scythe out of the ground and dashed at her foe. There was no way that she could dodge Crescent Rose at close range Ruby thought as she swung at her.

Unfortunately, instead of dodging, the new lady blocked the blade with her claws on her right hand before slashing at Ruby with her left hand. She narrowly misses her face, but manages to nick her in the side before spinning away.

"I'm going to kill you for what you've done." Ruby ground out "You will pay for your crimes and I am here to make sure of it."

?

"What ever have I done to you little girl?" She playfully asks "are you trying to get revenge for your poor mommy? Because she sure needs it." Her voice slipped down a notch "watching her bleed out was one of the greatest moments of my life, I'm glad you came along to help me relive it. I'll make sure you feel exactly what your poor mommy felt before you join her."

With an inhuman growl, the lady rushed at Ruby before stumbling from being hit in the side. She got her feet going again and kept running, before she felt the hit three more times. This was enough to knock her down and before she could get back up, she saw her prey dashing away through the woods with somebody on her back. Wait – was that her sister? Obviously the little girl was kidnapping her sister to try and hold some leverage in there next fight, and oh yes there would be another fight, but unluckily for the girl in red, she wouldn't negotiate, she would just kill her and get her sister back that way.

Blake Belladonna (time = start of chapter)

She could not believe it. She sees her sister for the first time in ten years, and her girlfriend greets her by attacking her. This was not making a great first impression on her parents. She started to go to break the fight up, but her parents stopped her. They wanted to let them fight it out.

Blake just watched the fight flabbergasted, sure Ruby was impulsive, but she usually had some sort of a reason for it, some explanation before she started attacking someone. Blake just stared at the fight wondering what kind of luck she had with dating. She finally admits to herself that she is gay or at least bi, and her first girlfriend ends up trying to kill her family. Maybe she should just not date anyone, they just end up hurting her.

Wait- what did her sister just say? Could she have heard her right? She had killed Ruby's mother?

With a rush of dread, everything started to make sense. Ruby's mother had died ten years ago, her sister had left ten years ago. Of course Ruby had a reason for this fight. She flushed with embarrassment when she realized that she had doubted her girlfriend and was not even going to let her explain. She promised to do better in the future, but first she had to get her girlfriend out of here. Even if she managed to survive the fight, her entire family looked like they wanted a piece of her, and Ruby could not take them all.

Forcing her attention back to the fight, she saw her sister charging Ruby. She had to act now. But, could she really do this? Turn her back on her family, her long lost sister, just for a girl she met a couple of months ago? Yes. She pulled Gambol Shroud out and shot her sister once. That did not seem to slow her down much at all, so she pulled the trigger one, two, three more times. Seeing her sister go down, and the looks of shock on her parents faces, she rushed over to Ruby, helped her up and whispered only one word before climbing onto her back.

"Run."

A/N: So a really short fight scene, but hey it's progress for me. Baring any other crashes, the next chapter should actually be up sooner this time. I will start working on a one-shot this week, so this is

your last chance to vote on the poll on my profile

I may actually start another story, but not in Rwby. I am looking into starting a Percy Jackson story, which would be very cliche and would mainly be my way of unwinding from all the drama that has seeped into this story. I understand that most of you won't read it, but if any of you share my love for both of the fandoms, I just wanted to give you a heads up that I may be starting.
