A ceiling fan swung in a small circle over head, faster then the blades themselves were turning circulating the air in the old boxing gym. A TV attached to the wall was on the news channel showing the weather.
The gym was empty alone from Yang who was sending blow after blow into a punching bag that was more duck tape then anything else. The anger on her face was apparent, it had been two months since the message Ruby had left before going dark, no attempts to contact her worked so far.
After she had heard the message of Ruby speaking nonsese and giberish she had wanted to kill Gold. This was all his fault. She swung her fists harder and faster pounding the punching bag, ignoring the stinging pain in her knuckles she swung hard knocking it swinging away from her. sand spilling onto the floor in various places. It arched back towards her and she punched it with all her might letting out a scream voicing the anger in her heart. The bag exploded sending sand and duck tape everywhere.
"Fuck!" She exclaimed panting, looking around at the mess she had made. Knowing that she was going to have to clean it made her even madder.
"...On to Captain Mitchell with news on the growing White Fang movement on Atlas." the voice of Lisa Lavender said from the T.V.
Yang turned and looked at it. On screen was a police man in his late forties. "The lower quadrent of Atlas has fallen to the large forces of White Fang and Grimm they brought with them. But thanks to the help of the huntsmen the police and atlas's millatry the middle quadrant is holding strong. They have also issued a man hunt on Three white fang members. A high ranking member named Adam Tarus." his photo apeared on the screen. "And his two accomplices whos name's haven't been stated yet but go by the names. Black Death." A photo of girl with cat ears and long black hair replaced Adam's. She wore all black with a white grim mask over the top half of the girls face. "Both her and Adam are wanted dead or alive and finally The Crimson Reaper. Wanted dead."
Yang felt like she had been hit in the stomach as they posted the photo. Her legs trembled slightly as she stared. It was her. Ruby took up the screen her cloak, which she kept imaculent since it reminded her of Summer, was tattered and the hood was pulled up. Over her face was a human skull.
The screen changed back to Lisa. "Thank you Captain Mitchell." she said. "Now on to the weather..." She paused putting her hand over her ear piece as if to hear something better. "What?" she hissed. "Now?" she looked up the camera looking a little stunned. "The Middle quadrent is being pushed back, the white fang are surging fowards, were going live with Fushia on the scene." the image faded out to black and you could hear sounds of fighting, gun fire screams and roars of grim and the sound of an airships engine.
Yang tightned her hands into fists as she stared. "Wheres the video, get it up!" a woman was shouting near the camera and then the picture came on it was a veiw from an airship, the camera was showing a top of a high building with several people on it. Below fire and black smoke was mixed with white snow along with damaged buildings that where one pristine.
"Zoom in." Fushia ordered and the camera zoomed in on the building top. Several members of the White Fang where standing on the snow covered building top planting their flag on a pole that use to have Atlas's on it. In front of them was Adam, his hands on his hips as he stood at the edge of the building looking down on carnage below. Standing beside him was the cat Faunas called Black Death, and on sitting on the edge of the building was her sister. She was aiming somewhere with Cresent Rose and firing before moving a bit and firing again.
This was Ruby Yang had never seen her miss a target. So every shot she fired some one was dying.
"Please stop." she whispered her voice frail in the empty room. This was to much to watch. Her younger sister had dreamed of being a hero just like in the stories but there she was killing those she wanted to protect. Tears rolled down Yang's face. She shouldn't have ever got her in with Gold.
"This is odviously a way to boost morral and insult the millatary." Fushia was saying off camera.
But Yang wasn't listening she was was staring at her sister wincing everytime the girl's body jerked with recoil.
But she stopped, rested Cresent Rose on the roof beside her and looked up directly at the camera. She lifted her hands and slammed her fists together.
A chill ran down Yang's spine, it was message just for her. Ruby's words from the final transmission echoed in her head as the camera zoomed out and the airship turned away before the camera turned off it showed the Shcnee company in the distantace its logo bold and blue and the Tv cut to Lisa. But Yang was heading out the door. She had to get to Gold, her sister wasn't speaking nonsense, it was a warning. "When ATLAS the wolves come to claim beware the falling snow."
Her sister wasn't gone yet and she had a chance to save her.
