After last chapters sad ending I realized that I should probably release the next chapter as fast as possible to avoid the chances of one of you hunting me down and forcing me too. I hope you like this chapter and I know that many of you will just love how it ends.
Like always, please leave a review and let me know how you liked it! Anything is okay!
"Weiss"
Weiss heard the soft voice as it spoke to her, calling her out. Struggling herself awake from her slumber, she opened her eyes to only see only white. Confused, she sat herself up and looked down at herself to see that she was lying on a bed of white sheets and dressed in one of her light-blue nightgowns. 'I didn't put this on. Did I?' she thought. Lifting her head up, she looked around the room she was in and noticed that it looked almost exactly like her dorm at Beacon, the only difference was that the entire room was colored white. 'And people say that I am obsessed with it. Whoever decorated this room seriously needs to see a professional decorator.' She suddenly heard the sound of someone clearing their throat. Turning her heard towards the source she saw a man sitting on what Weiss guessed was Ruby's bed. "AHHHH" she shrieked out as she scrambled in shock towards the corner of her bed. "Who are you?!" she yelled.
"A friend" was all the man said as he smiled at her. Taking a closer look at him, Weiss noticed that he was very well built with bright, short blonde hair and with an even brighter set of blue eyes. His smile seemed to oddly enough, make her feel safe and comfortable, as if nothing could ever harm her as long as he was near. He wore a black suit without the tie that seemed as if it was made from the finest materials ever created. "I'm glad to see that you are finally awake. Was wondering if you would ever wake up."
"W-What happened? How did I get here?" Weiss franticly questioned, not taking her eyes off the stranger.
"Calm down child. You are in a safe place and I swear that nothing bad will happen to you. We need to take things slow. Now, what is the last thing you remember?" He asked as he put his hands up in front of him to try and calm the frightened Weiss.
Weiss sat there and thought. Images starting to pour into her mind as she started to recall the terrifying events that somehow led to this. "I-I remember a dance. I was with Ruby and it was going great…until…until" Weiss felt the start of tears form in her eyes as she began to remember how Ruby rebuffed her confession of love. "Until I told her I loved her." The tears now flowed freely as Weiss closed her eyes and held her face in her hands. Her sobs continued for several moments before she looked up to see the man had an expression of sorrow and understanding on his face.
"What happened next?" he asked.
Trying to control her breathing and the flow of tears, Weiss continued her path down memory lane. "After that," she struggled to speak, "I ran. I just ran away from her. I was so hurt. Eventually I ran into an alley way and was found by some strange…man or monster as I suppose I should call him. And then…and then…" Weiss began to breathe heavily as the last thing she remembers came to her, the pain in her chest increasing with breath. "Oh, my God. H-He stabbed me. He stabbed me." She cried out.
The man stayed where he was but the expression on his face could clearly say that he wished to comfort the poor girl but that was not possible at this point. "Yes. Yes, he did." Was all he could say.
"Then, then am I dead? Is this…is this heaven?" Weiss asked between sobs.
Taking a deep breath and clasping his hands together in front of him, he answered. "Yes"
'So, it is true. I am dead. I will never see my family again. My friends….Ruby.' Weiss thought. She tried to cry but found herself unable to, her tear ducts empty, all she could do was hold herself and try to comprehend what was happening to her. "So, what happens to me now? I just stay here for all eternity?" she asked the stranger.
The man stood up from the bed and began to pace the floor, "You could. You can stay here, relive your favorite memories, possibly meet dead ancestors, OR…" he stated before turning to look at Weiss in the eyes, "you could return to living."
"Return?! Then, you mean to say, I can go back?!" Weiss questioned, a hint of excitement at the chance of returning home. To Ruby.
"Yes, you can go back. You can be with Ruby..."
"Wait," Weiss interrupted. "How do you know about her?"
"Weiss. I know everything and everybody that has impacted your life. You may not know it now but you have an important path ahead of you if you choose to return. If you do, you must be prepared for what is to come."
"And what exactly is there to come?"
He smiled at her, but not in an uncomforting way, more like a sadden smiled at the thought of what was to come. "All in due time. For now, if you are to return you must rest, though, you will begin to notice a change in you."
"A change? What kind of change? What the hell are you talking about?"
Taking a deep breath, the blonde man continued. "A physical one as well as a mental one. You are more than you think you are Weiss. Much more. At first you will think that you are like those you go to school with, those that you care about but no…you are not a monster. You are something much different and much more…unique I guess is the best word. You will at first begin to fear the change but after sometime you will welcome it, you will feel more like yourself, more whole, if you will."
"I still have no idea what are you talking about?!" Weiss yelled. "Are you saying I'm not human?!"
"Yes and no. You were human but if you are to return then you will no longer be. You will find yourself immune to more things that a human would find themselves easy to succumb to. Such an ability will be handy to you, especially at such a school as Beacon and with those who will soon become your enemies."
"What? Like that Adam guy? The son of a bitch that killed me?"
"Yes, him and those who he serves. They were after you because of this power and because of their foolishness, they have instead released it. Now, do you wish to return?"
"Yes" Weiss said without a second thought.
"Are you willing to become what you are meant to be? Even if it will change everything about you, everything you have ever known will change, and those you love might shun you for it?"
On that question, Weiss hesitated before answering. "Yes"
"Then so be it. I will contact you again soon to help you. Just be careful child. Not everyone is whom they seem." At the end of his sentence, the man let out a blinding light that engulfed the entire room. Weiss's body felt surprisingly warm and seemed to welcome the light and soon she felt herself start to fall asleep.
"Wait" she cried out. "Who are you? What is your name?"
In the middle of the light, even as her eyes began to close and sleep started to overtake her, Weiss could make out a small smile on the man's face as he answered.
"Michael"
And with that, Weiss world once again was encased in white.
….
Weiss slowly awoke. The first thing she realized as her body's senses turned back on was that she was freezing cold and that she was…well…naked. Opening her eyes, she saw a bunch of lights hanging above her. Lifting herself up so that she was sitting, she realized she was lying on a cold metal table in the middle of what looked like a morgue. 'Holy shit. It was real. I was all real'
As she was looking around, a man in a lab coat walked into the room talking on the phone, looking away from her. "Yep. Yep. I will be sure to call you and let you know the exact cause of death sir. Yep. Goodbye." The man then hung up the phone and threw off his coat before turning around. The second he saw Weiss sitting up, clearly alive, the two just stared at each other for several minutes.
"AAAAAAAHHHHHH" the man screamed before his eyes it seems rolled back into his head before passing out and collapsing onto the floor.
Shocked at what just happened, Weiss slowly got off the cold metal table and tiptoed her way towards the downed man. Checking to make sure that he was okay, she went over and put on his discarded lab coat to hide her naked body. She then made her way out the door and followed a set of stairs that led up towards what Weiss hoped would be an exit. Soon arriving at a door, she opened it up just enough so she could look out it, checking to make sure that it was empty. Instead, a few people occupied the hall, some of them nurses while others were patients that they were speaking too.
"Paging Doctor Free and Doctor Jones. I repeat, paging Doctor Free and Doctor Jones. Needed for heart transplant in room 434." Almost immediately, two men in lab coats and scrubs ran down the hallway, almost colliding with those already in it. Weiss took notice that the odd doctors looked a lot like the guy Michael she met at the arcade and outside the restaurant ages ago and the other looked much like her Professor at Beacon. 'Jesus Christ. Do they have twins or something? What isn't there that these guys don't do?'
Slowly exiting out into the hallway, Weiss looked to her left down another hall and saw that at the end of it was an exit. Looking around to make sure that nobody was watching her, Weiss made her way towards the door and outside where she saw that it was just early in the morning, the sun just coming up as an orange hue came into view. Weiss began walking away down the sidewalk where she noticed a sign in front of the building she was just in, Beacon Infirmary, it said. Realizing she was still at the school she made her way towards the dorms quickly to avoid anybody finding her walking around half naked.
Arriving just as the sun was reaching up higher in the sky, Weiss made her way inside and instead of the elevator, she took the stairs to avoid people. After climbing the massive number of steps, Weiss arrived at her floor and made her way to her room where she stopped in front of it. She hesitated before opening it up. 'What if Ruby is inside? How will she react to me suddenly and somehow coming back from the dead? How will I be able to explain everything to her?' Reaching a decision, Weiss took a deep breath and opened the door.
Making her way into the room, slowly, she saw that Ruby was sleeping in her (Weiss's) bed. Silently, continued her way into her room and made way to her dresser. Looking at Ruby once more took make sure she was sleeping, Weiss began to grab a set of clothes from it and dropped the coat from her body before getting dressed.
After she finished, she once again looked at Ruby's sleeping form and walked up next to her. Looking at her, she noticed that Ruby had dried tears evident on her face. Without thinking, Weiss reached down and brushed off the marks from her face where she quickly stopped while in the middle of doing so. She started to think about something but was interrupted when Ruby began to move and she slowly opened her eyes to see Weiss looking back down at her.
"Weiss? What are you doing up so early?" she asked as she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. She stopped almost immediately as she started to realize who was exactly standing next to her. "WEISS?!" Ruby screamed out as she sat up and backed herself against the wall.
"Hi Ruby." Weiss said as she took a seat on the bed, not taking her eyes off Ruby.
"Weiss! What the hell? You can't be here! You're not real!"
"Trust me Ruby. I am real and I am here, right in front of you." Weiss said as she tried to move closer to the frightened girl who only moved further away.
"Bullshit! I saw you die." Ruby cried as she remembered the events of the following night. "You were dead and I couldn't do anything to save you."
"I know but you still tried. I saw you, you know, when you jumped and tackled that man after he stabbed me. It was the last thing I saw before everything changed." Weiss smiled sadly.
"You…you saw that?"
"Yes. After he stabbed me I heard a scream. I was able to turn just enough to see you standing in the alley, crying, before you tackled him. It broke my heart knowing that that was going to be the last time I would ever see you." Tears were now falling freely from Weiss's eyes. "But instead, here I am. Alive and sitting right here in front of you."
"This has to be a dream."
"This is no dream Ruby. I am here. I promise." Weiss once again tried to move closer to Ruby and seeing that the girl made no attempt to move away, moved to sit next to her.
"Weiss?" Ruby slowly reached out a gloved hand to touch Weiss's tear covered cheek. "WEISS!" Ruby yelled once the hand made contact, proving that Weiss was really in front of her. She then jumped and wrapped the snow-white girl in a tight embrace that rivaled any hug Yang has ever done, pressing her face in the girl's chest. The two held each other, crying as they did, for what seemed like hours, before Ruby mumbled something in Weiss's chest.
"What did you say?" asked Weiss as she rubbed her friends back in an attempt to calm her.
"I'm sorry Weiss. I am so, so sorry." Ruby softly cried out.
"For what?" Weiss asked in confusion.
"For not being able to save you, for hurting you, for lying to you."
"Ruby. There was nothing you could do to save me. The man already did enough damage to me that even if you arrived and stopped him before he stabbed me I still believe that I would've died eventually. And what did you mean for lying to me?"
Ruby took a deep breath to calm herself before speaking. "When you told me you loved me and I said that I didn't feel the same."
"What?" Weiss asked, looking down at Ruby.
Ruby looked back up at Weiss, staring her in the eyes. "I love you Weiss. I have since the day I first met you. I don't know why but the second I laid eyes on you, I fell in love, it was so strange. I have wanted to tell you for so long but I couldn't." Ruby started to cry once more as she spoke, Weiss kept a hand on her back. "I was going to tell you last night after the dance but…but I couldn't. I could never love you like someone should, like you deserve to be loved. I can never hold you, truly touch you, or even kiss you. I could never force you to live a life like that with me. I just couldn't and I…"
Ruby was silenced. Silenced when a pair of warm, dry lips pressed against her own. Weiss, having heard enough of Ruby speaking down about herself, decided to do the one thing that she knew would make the girl feel better. They kissed for several seconds before Ruby broke it. "Weiss! What the hell? You know that…" Ruby was silence when Weiss pressed a finger to the girl's lips.
"Ruby, in case you haven't yet noticed, I am fine. No aura drained or anything." Weiss stated with a smile.
"How?" Ruby asked in disbelief.
"When I…went to the other side. I was told that if I were to return here that I would undergo some…changes. One of them being immune to pretty much anything that could affect a normal human and I just figured that your abilities would be one of them. As you can see, I was right." Weiss said with a grin.
"I-I don't understand."
"Honestly, neither do I. It is still a lot to take in you know. Being dead, coming back to life, and then discovering that none of it was a dream and that somehow I am now immune to your aura draining."
"But, but…"
"No more questions Ruby, okay? I will answer anything else you ask later but right now I would love to get some sleep. Being dead takes it out of you ya know?" Weiss said with a small chuckle.
"Okay." Ruby started to get out of the bed but Weiss decided against it and grabbed a hold of the girl's arm, stopping her.
"Want to…stay with me?" Weiss nervously asked.
Ruby turned to look at Weiss with a small smile on her face. "Of course. Anything for you princess." Weiss rolled her eyes but that didn't stop a smile from forming on her face as Ruby pulled herself back under the covers as they wrapped each other in their arms. They laid like that, just staring at each other, slowly moving closer and closer until their lips met in a soft touch.
Weiss could feel Ruby moaning into the embrace as the girl rolled on top of her. She soon started to feel the girls gloved hands move through her hair and grab a hold of her side. Deciding that that was not good enough, Weiss broke the kiss. "Take them off." She said.
"W-What?" Ruby stuttered with a deep red blush.
"Not that you dolt" Weiss whispered harshly. "I meant your gloves. Take them off."
Ruby nodded in agreement and started to take off her gloves. Finishing, Weiss took both of the now free hands into her own, rubbing circles into palms of both hands. "They are very soft."
"Thanks." Ruby mumbled. Weiss giggled at the girl's nervousness before taking one hand and placing it on her side under her shirt and the other against her cheek, nuzzling into it before giving it several kisses. Ruby leaned down to once again meet Weiss's lips in a tender kiss before leaving and trailing kisses across their pale girls jaw and down to her neck.
Weiss could only moan at each kiss, her body feeling on fire. Once Ruby reached her neck, each kiss felt like jolt of electricity against her skin. Soon she felt Ruby begin to suckle and bit down on her skin, a mixture of pain and pleasure that could only fuel the fire that rose in her body. She knew what Ruby was doing but did nothing to stop her. Once the brunette had finished, she leaned back and looked at Weiss, panting heavily. "Was that okay?"
"Yes, you dunce. If it wasn't don't you think I would've stopped, you." Weiss firmly stated.
"Sorry" Ruby giggled. "It has been awhile since I have ever done anything like this with anyone."
"You have been with someone before?"
"Yes, but let us not talk about this tonight. All I want to do is lay down and sleep next to my princess. Or should I say my girlfriend?" Ruby said hesitantly.
"Haha girlfriend. I like the sound of that." Weiss pulled Ruby closer to her and met her in a deep kiss. They kissed until their lungs called for air and even after that, they kissed even more, taking in each others presence.
"Goodnight princess. I love you." Ruby said as she laid down and held Weiss in a tight embrace. Weiss rolled over and rested her head-on Ruby's chest and closed her eyes, happy to be there in the arms of the girl she loves.
"Goodnight my little rose. I love you too."
WHITEROSE IS NOW REAL! After all the pain and suffering the two have been through they are now together. But what of Weiss and her somehow coming back from the dead? Who was that strange man? How will everyone else react to Weiss's return? I will hopefully answer these questions in the next chapter and it will be one hell of a chapter for what I got planned.
