Roses.
It was a sight that welcomed Ruby Rose as she was just standing in the middle of a garden. Such a flower surrounded her. But then it was the color that slightly threw her off.
They were grey.
It was as if the very life of such an object had been sucked dry. The vibrant color had bled until it could no longer ooze out the crimson liquid. But then there were high metal fences that stopped her from leaving the garden. Although there were two openings, both were shut and looked locked as well.
A spooky fog blanketed over Ruby's head and obscured her vision. Yet through then thick blur, she could see one figure suddenly standing next to the gate. Taking steps closer and closer with curiosity, she slowly could make out who was standing in place.
Nevan patiently never moved a muscle, simply staring towards the young girl's silver eyes. Yet the devil did not speak. She continued to fix her gaze to Ruby. The silence made the human uncomfortable while the devil was unaffected, unknown if it was mental as well.
Ruby soon began to fidget nervously, wondering why Nevan was refusing to move or even speak at all in the first place. Speaking of which, where was the young girl anyways? The last thing she could remember was falling down that extremely large drop that seemed like it went of forever. Ruby needed to find a way out of here now.
Hearing the sound of the other gate open, Ruby whipped her head around. Curiosity once more got the better of the girl as she made another trip across the dead garden towards the source of the sound. It was hard to tell, but a new person stood along the metal fence. But it was what they looked like as Ruby got closer that made the girl immediately break out into a run.
"Mom!" Ruby exclaimed as she rushed as fast as her semblance could carry her straight into Summer Rose's arms.
Not a sound was emitted from the older woman, yet Summer smiled warmly and was crushing her daughter in a giant hug with equal tightness. Summer could hear the tears of her child as Ruby wept which caused the mom to pat her child on the back.
But then Ruby once more began to take in the silence and it made her worry. "…Mom?" She asked with concern, almost shakily. Breaking out of the embrace, silver eyes stared at each other. One face was confused while the other was apologetic. "Mom? Is… is everything alright? Why aren't you saying anything? Aren't you happy to see me?"
Now a pained expression took over Summer's face as the woman closed her eyes before standing up. "M-mom… Where are you going?" Continuing to hear her child's words, Summer still did not respond as she slowly turned around hesitantly. "N-no… Mom! Please don't go!"
"Mom!"
"Mom!"
"Mama!"
"No!"
"Please!"
"Mama!"
" No!"
Ruby now began to scream and beg, clinging onto the heavenly white cloak Summer wore in an attempt to prevent the adult from leaving. Tears pooled in the eyes of not only Ruby, but Summer's as well. It was unknown why summer would cry, but Ruby continued to weep. She had just seen her mother for the first time in almost all of her life and now she had to leave? Many children would be like this.
"Ruby!"
Hearing her name, Ruby looked up reluctantly and over to where she heard the voice. No… wait… several voices? Yang? Weiss? Blake? Nero? Where were they?
Looking over to where Nevan stood, Ruby saw that the gate was open this time and heard her friend's voices coming from beyond the metal fence. Feeling something in her hands being tugged though, Ruby turned and saw Summer opening the gate that was next to her.
A look of confusion slowly grew on Ruby's face, but then it morphed into realization of what choice she had. Hesitation and stress grew inside the young girl as she pondered and struggled with her choice. No matter what choice she made, Ruby would lose something.
Feeling a pat on the head, Ruby looked up and found herself staring into Summer's eyes once more. The adult only smiled gently as she gestured with a nod of her head towards the gate where everyone's voices were coming from. Another nod, this time with encouragement, was done as Summer saw her child point to herself and then the gate.
Blinking a couple of times, Ruby soon realized what her mom was trying to communicate. But then what about Summer? Yet with another gesture from her mom, the young girl hesitantly made up her mind.
But that still didn't stop her from at least letting loose one last hug as if may be the final one she would even give. "I love you…" Ruby trailed off, trying to find the right words. An unknown amount of time passed before the love grip released and Ruby took steps towards the gate where Nevan stood.
Summer watched her daughter as she passed through the metal gate while it shut immediately after. A peaceful smile now grew on the mother's face as she walked past her own gate and quietly closed it behind her.

What was this red little object?
Many bulbous demons thought this as they stared at the unmoving… thing that had just fallen down into this disgusting domain.
Ruby Rose could not do a single thing due to her body lying in place. Her Aura wasn't enough to cushion her fall. Pretty much every single bone in her body was now broken or practically shattered. Soulless eyes stared up to the darkness above from where she came.
It didn't matter to the demons though.
They were hungry.
As they inched in closer for their meal, purple electricity began to pulse along the unmoving body. It only started off as a singular shot. Then it was double… triple… the number kept increasing until the speed increased dramatically before a bolt of lightning struck Ruby's body. Her back arched as if she were in ecstasy as he body underwent spasms of all angles due to her broken bones. With a final flash, the body suddenly disappeared.
The sound of some sort of stringed instrument suddenly filled the air and confused many of the demons. Doing their best to find the source, all of them turned to one of the points on the wall and saw a girl lying along the remains of who knows what plucking on a purple acoustic guitar to a rather relaxing tune.
What was interesting about this girl was that her hair was long and black with red tips at the end which draped down all the way to her chest. Her skin was as pale as a blank sheet of paper with her eyes being dark and sunken. For clothing, the girl wore a tattered red cloak with a ripped red scarf as well. Only a part of her upper torso and shoulders were covered with Grimm armor. Covering her bottom was a shredded goth-like skirt with red flower decals. Other than that, the lower half of her body was completely naked. Whistling along with the tune, several rows of razor-sharp teeth were present inside her mouth.
Throwing the guitar into the air, the purple guitar suddenly began to float. But something fell out of the instrument yet it kept on playing. Snatching the object out from the air DT-Ruby caught the weapon and leaned to on the extremely long handle as if she needed it for support.
In her hands was a naginata that was double her size. The bottom end of the long black metal pole had red design on the bottom which looked like a bouquet of roses with tips touching the ground. But for the upper design, there was a crimson skull leering with a purple glare. That was not the end though as a amethyst gem sparkled right above the skull and finally led to the curved blade of the naginata. Around less that the quarter of the red blade and already there was a sharp curve in the blade before it came back to the original point and created the rest of the razor edge. Wrapped around the back of the blood-red metal blade were black vines with sharp thorns.
"Hmm… Perhaps this will make a better mood." DT-Ruby seemed to sigh in a blissful breath.
(Play Blazblue – Silent Scream)
The purple acoustic guitar suddenly burst into lightning but then disappeared while doing so. Flipping her naginata so that the blade was touching the ground, DT-Ruby placed her right hand over the weapon and channeled purple electricity around the weapon. Quickly, the bolts spread around the weapon and suddenly turned it into some sort of electric guitar.
"Come on… Don't you want some?" DT-Ruby asked while gesturing seductively with one hand as the strings continued to play themselves. The beat suddenly soon began to pick up and the fight began.
One demon was more than eager as it leapt towards the girl. DT-Ruby simply held her weapons up and the electricity collided with the weapon. A shock spread through the demon's body as the electric guitar came apart from the naginata. DT-Ruby immediately began to hack and slash the demon along with incoming ones before rushing forward with dead rose petals behind her for one final large swipe.
A new demon readied a scythe of its own and tried to cut DT-Ruby in half. It failed to work as the girl merely dispersed into a bunch of Grimm bats. As such creatures re-gathered at a certain point in the dark abyss, DT-Ruby formed her body once more and appeared right in front of a demon.
Shoving the monster forward, DT-Ruby quickly stuck the bottom part of her weapon into the ground before swiftly rushing behind the pushed demon only to shove it right into the naginata blade. Rushing back to her stuck up weapon, she cleaved right through several more demons.
Leaning back, she moaned as several more demons slashed right through her clothing and creating more rips. Chuckling in amusement, DT-Ruby caressed one of their cheeks. "Having some fun?" Lighting immediately came in life in her hand and shocked the demon a she gripped it tightly and slammed it into the ground and created a lightning shockwave around her.
Suddenly, her jaw unhinged as she took a deep breath with her razor teeth being presented at the same time. One unfortunate demon found itself being sucked in and completely helpless as DT-Ruby suddenly went right inside said monster. Being lifted into the air, it suddenly began to bend abnormally.
The sounds of bones breaking and cracking echoed through the entire area as the demon continued to be forcefully twisted and turned in many directions. With a final crack and an arch of its back, DT-Ruby popped out of the broken demon and stabbed it with her naginata.
Taking her weapon with the dead body still on it, she slammed it down right onto one demon in front of her before arching her back and killing another demon right behind her. Making a throwing motion, several tiny Nevermores with electricity sparking from them flew out and shocked such demons.
One of those monsters was still alive however. But this gave DT-Ruby the perfect opportunity to rush forward and grab the demon. Mouth opening wide once more, she bit right into the demon and immediately began to suck its blood. Only a couple of seconds passed and it became no more than an empty husk as she tossed it back to the ground.
Disappearing and re-appearing in a cluster of Grimm bats, she lunged forward with her naginata pointing forward and spinning at the same time, With such fast speeds as well, she practically became an arrow and pierced right through several demons. For the last one of the row however, she had grabbed some sort of beating organ from it before simply squeezing it in her hand until it exploded.
Feeling a bit of excitement grew inside of her, she spun her weapon around and rose petals began to fall from her ripped cloak. "Blink and you'll miss quite the sight." DT-Ruby said with a teasing tone while lowering her body slightly to show off a bit of her exposed chest.
Grabbing the electric guitar that was still playing itself apparently, she began to jam on the instrument. Musical notes of the color purple immediately began to fly right from the guitar and barrage the demons that were just standing there with great confusion.
Now recognizing what they needed to do again, they attempted to sward the devil but were completely unsuccessful as the music continued onto play. DT-Ruby's speed began to pick up with the music as her fingers were moving at an inhumane pace. Not a single pair of eyes could keep up with the speed of the fingers strumming the instrument. "It's coming!"
Suddenly grabbing her naginata, she placed her hand on the flat surface of the blade and swiped in a horizontal arc in front of her. The weapon floated in mid-air as purple lightning trailed behind her hand. When that was finished, a keyboard was formed as she then began have her thin white fingers dance on the keys next. Now pillars of her element began to rise from the ground and completely eradicate anything it touched.
The demons were now in complete panic. All they could do was try and flee the new being that had just suddenly showed up in their territory. But there was no way for them to escape these confines. They were stuck down here with this monstrosity of a girl. Their deaths were secured.
The keyboard playing soon stopped. But then DT-Ruby flipped the instrument around and it was presented with guitar strings at the back as she immediately began to jam on such an object once more. Standing in place while playing furiously, a ball of lightning began to grow bigger and bigger the longer and faster DT-Ruby played.
Finally with a final strum the ball exploded and she was sent spinning around in a wide circle while still continuing to furiously release the music. DT-Ruby became a furious tornado of lightning and music as she cut and burnt many demons into pieces and crisps by the second.
She just kept on spinning and spinning and spinning - - there was no end to it! But she eventually stopped since pretty much every single demon was destroyed. All except one.
(End Song)
Breaking out of her spin, she jumped and slammed her butt right into the demon's chest and forced it on the ground. Spinning around, she was straddled up right on the monster as it struggled to try and get away from what could be potentially its killer. It soon froze as the new girl grabbed her naginata.
"Your life… A mere plaything." DT-Ruby moaned blissfully before stabbing the demon's head.
DSW
Weiss frowned as she looked around her location.
She was within some sort of medieval, gothic0style castle. The walls were black, with white details. The floor also was black, with a circle of light coming from what appeared to be a moon. A large circular hole that was on the ceiling allowed such light to come through. Where Weiss was standing right now was a giant central hall.
The frown was mainly worn on the heiress' face for a couple of reasons. First of all, her 'demon' part stabbed right through her and killed her in the process. Second, she was now standing right in the middle of this rather dark yet bright castle at the same time. What did her other self mean by 'someone who wishes to meet their mother'?
"Mama?"
…Where did that voice come from?
"Mom?"
Was it referring to her?
"No, it's to the naked Welshman riding a unicycle- Of course it's you! Who else?!"
Now that was just plain rude.
Pinpointing the source of the voice a couple of feet to her side, Weiss slowly craned her head and had her jaw drop at who she saw.
A child with pale white skin and icy-blue eyes stared right back at her. Her hair was a snow-white color of medium length that was pent up slightly in the back by a white bow that had blue stripes on the ends. For clothing, the girl had a solid white furisode kimono that hanged off her shoulders. The outfit had a blue double-lined trim with a blue obi at the back.
Not only was the look rather dignifying, but her face… it looked so similar to Weiss.
"Finally! Do you know how difficult it was to grab your attention?!" The girl sighed with frustration, clearly relieved that Weiss was looking at her. Ignoring the heiress' looks, the child got straight to the point. "Long story short, you died. Grandpa… Yamato? Vergil? The latter it is. Grandpa Vergil killed you due to thoughts about not being able to protect yourself properly… or something like that. The author forgot the reasoning and was too lazy to look back at previous chapters."
"…Who are you?" Was all Weiss could managed with her voice bouncing around the halls.
The child raised her eyebrow with a look that was just saying 'really' in a question. Bringing a fist up to her mouth, she cleared her throat before boasting out loudly. "I am the White Demon. I am the Cold Steel. I am the Young Schnee. With power in hand shall I reap the sins of this world and cleanse it in the demonic power of Sparda. I AM YUKI SCHNEE, DAUGHTER OF NERO SPARDA AND WEISS SCHNEE, YOUR TIME HAS COME!" After that loud bellow, the now known Yuki took a deep gasp of air, completely ruining the image of someone well mannered. "I've always wanted to say that. Hope I don't get charged for copyright though."
Yeah… Extremely lame chapter… This actually was a lot shorter than I intended it to be… BUT THAT CLIFFHANGER… sort of.
Alright, quick note. The reason this chapter took so long… I am losing my interest. Don't worry, I am determined to finish this. But the main problem is… work. Work is still fun, but pretty time consuming. That is why I am going to officially announce that this fanfic…
IS GOING TO HAVE TWO MORE CHAPTERS LEFT!
Why it isn't going to be a bit longer? Problem, in September I am going back to school. Why? Apparently scoring negative on final exams of High School is so bad that I have to go back due to owing them points.
Nah, I just really want to improve myself in a certain subject and find a job around such an area.
So yeah… Just two more chapters left… How will I pull it off?
I'm sorry for such notice, and thank you for tolerating my reading.
No flames please.
