Chapter 11

"Subject is fully charged. Once the virus kicks in, she will be an unstoppable killing machine..." A woman's voice is heard in the back. Ruby jumps from her seat. Weiss has armed herself with Myrtenaster. Crimson chuckles. Her sharp yellow eyes stare into Ruby's crimson eyes.

"But how...? I escaped before anyone of you could do it!" She shouted in angst.

"Those weren't ordinary chains. We'd figured you would escape so we charged you by using those chains. That way, you will become the master's favorite pet..." Ruby is filled with anger and all of the sudden she shifts into her Grimm and slammed Crimson to the wall. She growled fiercely at the woman in red.

"Face it, mutt. You're nothing but a monster. You're going to serve Kane and do as he desire. There's no where to escape from him, Ruby. If you run, we'll hunt you down..." Ruby slowly crush the woman and snarls. She thought about killing her until the door slammed open and Yang, Blake and Alex enters in shock. The blonde brawler yells, "RUBY! PUT HER DOWN!"

The white Beowolf refuses. She tighten her grip around the woman in red. Yang slowly approach her angered sister and soothe her, "Ruby, calm down... We heard everything. If you don't control yourself, you would gone wild. Now, put her down and back away..." Her growls grew lower and lower. Her grip loosens and dropped the woman to the ground.

Ruby backs away and whimpers, lowering her head slightly. Yang gently pet her and shush her, "It's okay, Ruby. I'm not mad at you..." Crimson gets up and chuckles as she tries to regain her breath. "You'll never get away from this..." She muttered.

Suddenly, the alarm went off once again and a group of men enters with their guns pointed at them. Team RWBY and Alex gathered in circle with the men surrounded them. Ruby thought of an idea quickly grab her friends and crash through several walls.

Every path she chose most likely was blocked by Grimm or men. She crash through them like a bowling ball and sprint for the exit. But the door shut close all of the sudden. She turn back but has blocked by the hounds. She take a deep breath and spit fireball to the wall at her left, creating a hole big enough for her to walk through.

After she went pass through the hole, she quickly find another exit and bust open the door. She finally see light and the red leaves of the Forever Fall forest. Without wasting any time, she quickly make a run for Beacon.

Crimson walk out and watches the white Beowolf run away. She contacted Kane through her ear speaker, "Subject has escape once again. You want me to track her down?" She ask. The man chuckles.

"It doesn't matter anymore. The virus is currently active. Just a little push, she will be the monster of my dreams..."

The shattered moon is hanging above their heads. There aren't any stars in the night sky. Only darkness surrounded the moon and accompany a white Beowolf underneath it. She reached the courtyard of Beacon Academy. She look up to the large building before her. A sudden sorrow struck her.

Alex dropped himself from her back. He glance at the white Beowolf and her friends, "I'm going to find out about the virus. For now, stay safe..." That's all he could say to them. He slowly walk towards the entrance with guilt stuck in his heart. Ruby look down to the ground. Yang noticed her sister's depression, stroke her fur in comfort.

"All those Grimm we've been fighting all along...they're all..."

"We know, Ruby. We know. But you're not the only one who killed them. Remember Titan? I'm the one who killed it..." Yang reply.

"But I... Am I a monster...?"

"You're not a monster, Ruby. Please, don't say things like that. You're our friend, our leader and most importantly, my sister... No matter what they call you, nothing would change between us..." The blonde's words soothed the Beowolf. A faint smile is formed on her face.

"It's getting chill out here. Should we head inside?" Yang suggested. Ruby nod. She lay down and allowed her sister to carry her sleeping Faunus girlfriend on her back. Yang slowly bring Weiss down who is fast asleep as well. The Grimm returned to her human figure and carry the heiress in bridal style.

Ruby glance on her sister and smile, "Thanks, sis. I really appreciate your words..." She muttered. Yang respond with her signature grin.

Team RWBY are given a rest due to yesterday's event. Yang was thinking on hanging out with her sister but Ruby is nowhere to be seen. She decided to take a stroll instead. She dropped by team JNPR's dorm but they aren't in their dorm, probably went out for a mission.

She headed to the courtyard and proceed to the garden. She sat on the bench and let the morning breeze brushes through her golden hair. She look around and her eyes caught a white pup running around chasing a butterfly. She smiles. But then she saw a red wolf chasing after the pup. The red wolf pounced the pup and both of them rolled on the ground. After few rolls, the wolf lays down and the white pup is on its head. She tug the wolf's ear with her mouth playfully.

Yang watches both of them playing and chasing each other. She realize her sister is the white pup and the red wolf is Alex since the man told them that he's still a part Grimm. She saw her sister smiles at him, a happiness that she missed so much. For once, she doesn't mind the man get close to her sister. In her eyes, he seemed genuine on helping Ruby to find vaccine for her and somehow she bonded with him. At last, Yang decided to entrust Ruby to him.

The next day, after she woke up her friends and put her clothes on, Ruby immediately drink a glass of warm milk and grab a toast. Weiss notice her rushing girlfriend ask, "Why are you rushing, Ruby?"

"Oh, I going to hang out with someone. Don't worry, I won't be long!" She munched the toast quickly and wear her sneakers. Before she open the door, Yang called her, "Ruby!" The white girl stopped dead. Her sister wouldn't allow her to go out if she knew whom she's going to meet with.

"Send my regards to Alex later..." Ruby, Weiss and Blake couldn't believe what they heard from the blonde. However, the white girl smiles wide, "Okay! See you guys later!" She open the door and head out with joy.

Blake is curious of her girlfriend's sudden change, "Didn't you don't trust Alex on Ruby?" Yang turn to look at the Faunus and smile. She reply, "She's happy when she's with him. I thought...maybe I should give him a chance. At least, for him to redeem himself..." She tighten her grip on the tattered red cloak she use to replace her scarf. Weiss and Blake give her a small smile.
