Disclaimer of RWBY world and its characters.
I only own the OCs that shall appear in this story.
Author's Note: For those who are curious of where this story might go, I'm doing my best trying to make something that a realistic OC would do in such a fictional world.
As for the plot, let's say, it would be different from the original canon.
Chapter 1
The girl who fell
The moon hung in the night sky. Glittering the leaves of nature under the bright vast stars.
"You insolent child! Why can't you do anything right!?"
The bristling breeze of the cold wind brushed against her skin as her feet crunched in the dried leaves that scattered through the unknown path in the forest.
"All you ever do is sit in that goddamn room playing those stupid games in that fucking computer than face the real world!"
"Oh, for the god-! Is that what you really think of me!? Playing in those damn games I don't even play anymore!?"
Clenching her jaw, she zipped the zipper of her dark green hoodie that covered her gray T-shirt against the chilling wind.
She continued forward, without looking back at the trails she left behind.
"Don't you dare disrespect me child-!"
"Oh great! So now I'm disrespecting you!"
Closing her eyes shut, she tried to push back the fresh memories of earlier, inhaling to calm herself, trying to hold back the flow of her own tears that sting in her eyes.
She expected this the moment she opened her mouth but, knowing he would really say it without a hint of consideration, it hurt, as if someone just punched her chest.
"Enough! Get out! Get the fuck out of my house!"
Snorting, she pulled the hood a little bit lower, kicking a small round rock away from her path.
"Stupid." Alena grumbled, sighing in irritation as the faces of her parents flashed through her mind once more.
Her relationship with her parents wasn't that bad or that good.
She knows they tried their best to show their love through tough love but, as they grew, their interaction became like distant strangers that are polite with each other under the same roof.
Each has their own privacy and separated schedules. Like hers who's schedule was supposed to be writing her novels and watching lessons that could help her once she grew into age but, guess that's not happening.
"You just have to run your mouth." She shook her head, wryly laughing as she put her hands inside the pocket of her hoodie.
Clicking her tongue, "Well, whatever."
'What is done is done… Even though I know they expect me to come back and take back my words, too bad, they have another result.' Alena thought, snorting as she went forward deeper in the forest, ignoring the dimming light of the moon above.
Alena rolled her eyes. Even if she really can't blame her own parents as she understood that their mentally of the new incoming age in terms of global technology is a bit drawn back, there is still a line that even them cannot just step without consequences.
Trailing her way through the dark, Alena literally felt her skin crawl as she squinted her eyes, noticing the dark solitudes of those trees had disappeared from her vision.
Something was off.
She didn't know why, but her senses are sending all kinds of alarm in her mind.
'Is someone else here?' Alena warily thought, tensing up as the sound of the leaves rustling along with the sudden change in wind's direction.
Maybe it's a false warning since she wasn't really fond being alone in the dark and often imagine stuff that don't even exist when she's alone in a dark pathway,
Unfortunately, this wasn't a street nor a shortcut she sometimes uses.
Pursing her lips, Alena suddenly had a thought of going back.
Even though she doesn't really fear being alone in some forest, she knows there is always a risk in the wild, mainly wild beasts or humans.
Staring at the abyss of the darkness, Alena nervously laughs, trying to shrug off her fear as she turns around, with the intent of following the track she left behind.
"Yeah-I'm just gonna come back here tomorrow-HOLY!"
Instead of stepping on the grassy ground, she felt an empty air, and before she knew it, gravity was pulling her down in some rabbit hole.
A silent scream erupted from her mouth as she continued to fall in the darkness.
As much as Alena wanted this to be all just a dream, deep down, she knew this was real as those winds brushed against her fall.
'Is this it?' Alena thought, dreading what's about to come, 'Am I going to die?'
After three seconds of counting, Alena bitterly accepted the fact she would really die from this long deep hole she fell into.
If it's just a couple feet, she might have a chance to survive but, from how long she had yet to contact the ground, she guessed it was really deep.
Not wanting to see her own incoming death, she closed her eyes shut, bracing herself as she tried not to think of what would happen to her body once it impacted the ground.
For what felt like hours, she finally hit something.
It was not solid hard, she hit something soft, like cotton candy.
It felt warm… Like a gentle breeze of spring.
'Am I dead?' Alena mentally questions as she lets herself go deeper in this weightless space.
Before she knew it, everything went black.
