-3 weeks later, Beacon Library- Crysis' POV

Seriously?! An oral report? How am I suppose to do that? I was sitting in the library stressing over another subject, Ruby sitting next to me reading a book on dust manipulation with ammo cartridges. I looked at the clock on the wall, it read 5:21.

We should get going, dinners gonna be served in the cafeteria soon. I got up and poked Ruby, pointing to the clock. She saw what I meant. She closed her book, got up, and we both walked out of the library. Then I thought of something. I began to write a note, and Ruby soon took notice.

Hey Ruby, could you do me a favor? she read it then looked at me, giving me an expression that said 'Do you even need to ask?'

I then wrote down what I wanted her to help me with and gave it to her. She perked up when she saw it, then looked at me with a confused look.

Can you help me with History? Ooblecks oral report is stressing me out cause, ya know, I CANT TALK. I looked at her with a crest-fallen look. She knew I hated asking people for help, but she seemed like the only person I could trust to help her.

"Crysis, you're at Beacon now. You have friends here. People who care for you. Why don't you just talk? You said it yourself that the only reason you don't is because of your family, and you didn't in the past because you were alone." This question I could tell she thought she was talking a risk by asking.

I put my hand behind my head and began to blush. She saw this and giggled. I quickly wrote down my answer.

Well you see, 11 years of not talking do a lot to your vocal cords. I don't know if I am able to talk…. She looked at me, smiled, then grabbed my hand and began running down the corrider.

We soon came to the place we usually climb up to get onto the roof of beacon to hang out alone. She pointed up, and I got her idea, then she got behind me and slung her arms around my neck, and I began to climb. He could just jump with Ruby's scythe, but firing any form of firearm in non- shooting areas is strictly prohibited.

After about 5 minutes of climbing I got onto the roof, and let Ruby get off my back. We then sat down and she looked at me intensely.

"Talk." was all she said. She kept eye contact and had a serious expression. I was taken a bit back, then realized that arguing with her wouldn't end well. I then cleared my throat, and tried to talk.

"...h-hi R-r-rubee…." was all I could muster. It came out raspy and croaky, like opening a wardrobe with rusty hinges that had been closed for several years. She looked at me for a second. Than soon fell on her back laughing. I gave her an embarrassed look that was traced with a bit of anger. She got back up, still recovering from her laughing fit, and nodded.

"This is gonna be a LONG night." She said, giggling between syllables, then looked at me with a smile.

"Now lets try this again." She said as I gave it another go.

-3 Hours Later, Roof Top- Ruby's POV

"H-hello miss Rose...pl-lease to make your...acquaintanc-ce? He was still stuttering with the C's, but making progress none the less.

"Please to meet you to Mr. Rapture." As I stood up and curtsied for him. He blushed a bit, then went back to his normal, serious look. I sat back down, and put my head on his shoulder. He turned to look at me, and when he did he saw my ultimate weapon. The Ruby Rose "Oh Pretty Please?" Eyes. He soon fell victim as well, and admitted defeat. I shifted even closer, happy with my victory.

"Ruby, shouldn't we get b-back? He asked, stopping between each word. I looked up and was going to agree, until I spoke without knowing why.

"Please just a while longer? This is nice…." I said, then realized what I just said. I then blushed a red like my skirt and scooted back.

Oh god why did I say that? He probably thinks I'm a freak now! I looked up to see him looking behind at my with a confusing look.

"C-come on." He said slowly, patting the spot next to him. I slowly moved next to him and regained my position. I let out a long, thankful sigh.

"I think we missed dinner." He said with a light chuckle. As he got up. I looked at him, not wanting him to go. I gave him the look again. He just shook his head.

"Yang will kill me if you're not back s-soon, come on." He opened his arms, and I propped myself in a bridal position in his arms, and wrapped my arms around his neck. He then went over to the ledge, and his legs began to gain a faint dark earth outline, and he lept of the roof.

A few seconds later he slammed into the ground, and bent his knees to cushion some of the fall, but not all the way to make sure I didn't even touch the ground. He got up and began to put me down, but I just shook my head.

"C-come on Ruby…." Crysis complained, But I kept shaking my head. I know I was being a brat, but this was too good to let go of. He sighed then began to walk inside, then he stopped at the the doorway, and donned his serious face.

"Ruby...You c-can't tell anyone I c-can talk. I'd rather them n-not know. F-for now." He looked at me seriously, but still showing a hint of desperation in his expression. I simply nodded as I latched on to him tighter, he simply grunting as he began to walk inside, towards my dorm room.

-5 Minutes later- Crysis POV

It's a left here right…? Was what I was thinking when I turned the corner, Ruby already dead asleep in my arms, to see Professor Ozpin standing in front of me. he gave me a look, then stared down at Ruby.

"Good evening Mr. Rapture...and Ms. Rose." He said, as he raised a suspicious eyebrow. My eyes went wide and I started to shake my head rapidly, trying to think of an excuse for the situation I was in. He saw my dilemma and let out a small laugh.

"Good to see you're still talking care of Ms. Rose, Mr. Rapture. Now hurry along, before Professor Goodwitch catches you up after curfew." He moved out of my path and I nodded my head and began to walk towards Ruby's dorm, a little bit faster.

Behind me Ozpin was smiling

"Ah, young love." He said, as he sipped his mug and continued his walk down the corridor.

Okay so left, right, straight, and the fourth door on the….Ah, here it is. I thought as I walked up to Ruby's dorm, and tapped the buzzer with my elbow, Ruby still fast asleep in my arms. I looked down at her.

She really is an amazing girl…. As the door opened to show Yang, arms crossed and feet tapping. She looked at me with a dead stare and a very questioning face. I groaned quietly.

Ah shit…. was all I could think before she snagged Ruby from my arms, and put her down on her bed. As soon as she did, I started walking towards my dorm. I then felt a tap on my shoulder, to see Yang staring at me, ready to unleash the explosion of questions onto me.I saw she had Ember Celica equipped in their bracelet mode.

"Where were you and my sister for the last 3 and a half hours!? When she didn't show up for dinner I was worried sick!" She began to raise her voice, and I could tell I wasn't going to leave this hallway without at least getting punched once. I got out my pen and pad, still not using my voice to tell her.

She was helping me study, thats all. I had to do extra work on an oral report cause, you know, I can't actually speak. She looked at the piece of paper, then crushed it in her hand. When she looked back up at me, I could swear her eyes were a darker color than before. She grabbed me by the collar and pinned me against the wall, I giving no resistance because I knew it would be futile.

"Listen here. I don't care if you almost died for my sister, she is OFF LIMITS. I don't trust anyone with her, and especially not some random mute shes known for only 3 weeks." She pushed me up higher against the wall, now her eyes seeming to become redder.

"If you hurt her, AT ALL, I will return the pain ten fold. You don't know what she's gone through in her life, you wouldn't know the pain" she dropped me, but I didn't fall to my knees, I kept my balance and stood in front of her. I then removed my glasses, and crushed them in my hand. She then backed up, shocked at what I just did. I looked up with a fire in my eyes, my anger reaching its boiling point.

I don't know pain?! What did you just say...?! I then pulled out my pad and wrote down my answer, pushed the note against the wall, and pinned it there by jamming the pen into the wall. I walked off before she could respond.

-20 second later- Yangs POV

What. The. Hell. Was. That? I thought as I looked at the shards of Crysis' sunglasses shattered and scattered along the floor. I went up to the note, ripped the pen out of the wall, and read the note.

If I don't know pain, then you don't know your sister. So leave me the hell alone, and don't ever judge me like that again.

"This didn't go quite as expected…." I said to myself. I only meant to intimidate the guy, to see how he would react. I didn't think he would crush his sunglasses in his hand and lodge a pen into the wall, or give such a response. I shivered a bit, this guy wasn't someone to mess around with.

"What does she see in that guy?" I said, as I shoved the note into my pocket, and walked back to my room.

Now here is the part of the story were chapters take longer to create. Sadly, there probably won't be another chapter for 2 or 3 days, as I like to have 2 or 3 chapters already written before I publish the next. As usual, I am always open to advice and ideas to further the story, and love hearing from you guys. Thanks guys, and I'll catch you later!
