Silver Eyed Blood
As Ruby held Weiss's Tiara, she tried her hardest not to tear down the hospital piece by piece. She wanted to find who had her princess and drain them dry. "Ruby, don't let your emotions control you. Ozpin said all Creatures are monsters. Prove him wrong. Don't sink to that level." As Ruby calmed herself, she felt a but better. The voice was right. Ozpin had killed who knows how many creatures during his time. If she went around killing again, all she would do is prove Ozpins point. She swore she would help everyone when she left Beacon, and she planned on keeping that promise. Ruby clutched Weiss's Tiara in her hand. "Yang, get our bags ready. Ren, tell the others to get ready. We're going to find Weiss."
As Weiss awoke from her sleep, she looked around her surroundings. It looked like a world that was similar, but also very different. The very sky was a deep red, the ground a mixture of black and purple. The moon hung in the sky, fragmented. "Welcome to my home."
Weiss looked up, to find a woman standing above her. Skin as white as snow, with black veins coursing though her body, her hair in six offshoots on her head, three per side. "I apologize if my friend was a little rough." Weiss rubbed her head. "Who are you? Why am I here?" The woman walked to the edge of cliff. "Your girlfriend, Ruby. She's a vampire. Your friend Pyrrha is a Siren, or as you would know them, mermaids." Weiss was stunned. "How do you know that?" The woman looked at Weiss. "Because, years ago, my master and his brother made all the races, both living and dead. They made vampires, mermaids, and other races that your friends will become."
Weiss stood up. "Why are you doing this?" The woman looked at Weiss, a hint of sadness in her eyes. "Because I want to restore the natural order of the world, and some people would deny me that. People like Ozpin, who had hunted Creatures like they were animals for thousands of years."
"You knew Ozpin?" The woman nodded. "He was once my dearest friend. Someone I trusted more then anyone. But one day, someone made me an offer. An offer I couldn't refuse. Part of that offer, involved me taking command of all Creatures."
"What was the offer?"
"He promised to bring my little sister back to life, after she had been killed by hunters."
"Who was your sister."
"She's had many names, but I think anyone in today's age would know her as Summer Rose, a great Huntress of Beacon."
"Ruby, we're ready to go." Ruby looked up to see Blake standing in the door way. "Okay Blake. I'll be there in a few minutes." Blake nodded and left to rejoin the others. Ruby looked at the moon, it's fragments reaching further from their mother. Ruby''s mother had always said that the moon was her own mother, and thus Rudy's grandmother. Ruby had never understood what her mother meant. True, both of them favored the moon over the sun, just like they preferred night time over day, but she never gave it much thought.
Ruby looked at Weiss's Tiara, it's silver frame almost glowing in the moonlight. "Hold on Weiss. I'll come for you."
"Summer, you know you can't. If you do this, and Ruby finds out, she'll never trust you again. You and I both know that she did that as a one time offer, what makes you think that she'll give you another free pass?" Summer looked at Qrow, one of four living people who knew her secret, and one of five people who kept her tied to this world. The father Ruby never knew about.
"Qrow, at this point, I'm not sure if we have much choice. With Ozpin dead, the other must already be hunting Ruby and Yang. You and I both know that Ruby is going though the most difficult time in her life. What makes you think that we have an other choice?"
Qrow took a drink from his flask. "I know you love them Summer. I do too. All I want to hold Ruby like a father. But we both know what happened to us the last time we tried to interfere. I'm not sure if I could take the guilt again." Summer put her hand on Qrows. "I know you can. For our daughter." Qrow looked at Summer, the woman who had saved his life from himself. "For Ruby." Summer nodded. "For Ruby."
"Sir, we've found the girl. She's heading south with a small party. If she keeps at her current pace, she'll be here in five or six hours."
"Very good. Order the men to keep a close eye on her, and order them to not make a move until we have her nearby." The soldier bowed. "My lord" As the soldier left, a man with white hair, with cold, blue eyes that looked like they could cut anything. "you thought you could hide forever, but you'll learn. Even if everyone you love has to be put away.
Forever."
