Hey guys, what's going on? I hope your having a good day. Anyway, this chapter will focus mainly on Weiss's back story. I'll be taking into account what we know from the main series, and how I think the main series will go. Anyway guys, I hope you enjoy.

As Ruby looked at the gravestone, she prayed that it wasn't real. This gravestone, was the one thing that had protected her mother in her final rest. "You are a great disappointment to me, Ruby!" As Ruby spun around, she found her mother standing there, a fury in her eyes that Ruby had never seen before in a human or Faunus. "All your life, you've done nothing but hide from your problems. You've done nothing to fix anything. All you've done rob, pillage. You want a better world, FIX THIS ONE!" Ruby fell to her knees, on the verge of a breakdown, tears in her eyes, falling to the soft soil. "Your wrong. Your not my mother! My mother would never say this things. She would've helped me, not yell at me." Ruby looked up. "Go away! And never come back!" Weiss suddenly appeared before Ruby. "Weiss, what's going on here? What was that?" "An illusion. Something I created. I'm sorry to have put you though that Ruby, but I had to know. Someone with an evil heart would've cut down the illusion, or fought it in some way. But you knew better. You were able to see past the lies. Close your eyes, and rest. You'll be fine." As Ruby closed her eyes, she felt like she was in a stream, with the warm water calming her. She fell asleep with the water washing away all her dark emotions in that one moment.

Weiss watched as Ruby fell asleep with her magic. She wondered if she had done the right thing. She knew what it was like to not know what your mother would think if she saw you. Weiss didn't know how Ruby lost her mother, only that it was traumatic enough to push Ruby to help other people to the point where they were hailed as heroes. Weiss thought back to when her own mother died. It was the worst day she had ever experienced.

All she remembered was creatures as dark as night, a man towering over everyone, and her people dying right and left. Her mother had run to help her people, fighting with everything she had, but she was overrun by these creatures, and she was torn apart in front of Weiss. Weiss had gotten her scar from that day, trying to help a family that needed help. How those creatures and that man were able to breath underwater, they never learned, but it prompted Weiss to train everyday of her life, to be stronger, to able to protect her people.

Weiss knew that she had to hurry back to the Crescent Rose, or else the others would go looking for Ruby. As Weiss made her way back, she wondered what would happen if another attack happened. Would she be strong enough, would Ruby and her crew help her? She didn't know. As her tail grew back to replace her legs, she dived back into the water, feeling it consume her body, and giving her back her full strength.

As Yang waited for Ruby to return, she wondered what Ruby had seen. Yang knew that whatever Ruby had seen, it must have been something that was important enough for her to run off without her and the others. "Has Ruby returned yet?" Yang turned around to find Blake behind her, with Nora and Ren behind her. "No. Not yet. I'm thinking about going out to find her." "There's no need." As they all looked down in the water, they saw Weiss. "What do you mean Weiss? Where's Ruby?" "She had to past a test. I had to know what she was really like. She passed. If I can trust her, then I'm sure I can trust all of you." Ren stepped forward. "That didn't answer Yang's question. Where's Ruby?" Weiss pointed toward that cliff side. "There. You'll find her asleep in a stream. From there, follow the moon. You'll find a lake. Wait for me there." With that, Weiss dived into the water, her tail splashing the water. "Why would Ruby have to past some sort of test? We all know she wouldn't do anything that would harm anyone." Ren put his hand on his girlfriends back. "But we know her. We've known her for years now. They just need to know that they can trust her. Come on. Lets find Ruby and that lake."
