I don't own RWBY or Transformers Prime they belong to their respective owners. This fanfic is just for fun. Note *this* means that they are thinking so when you *see it* know that it is in their heads. Enjoy. Oh just thought of this when you see [this] it means Bumblebee is talking.

It has been some time since Ruby became part of the Autobots lives. And Ruby was remembering more and more of Optimus's past before he came to earth. When Agent Fowler found out about Ruby's scroll, he got it set up on the government cell plan. He told Ruby if anyone asks she is to tell people that one of the family friends that took her in works for a cell phone company and that she is testing out a possible new product. She was also starting to make new weapon with parts that Fowler would supply her. But it would be some time before they were ready so Ruby kept up her training both Huntress and Autobot type of training.

But today Ruby wasn't going to be near the Autobots for most of the day. The reason why she wasn't, was because today was her first day at Jasper High School. Optimus was the one to drop her off. She was wearing the same outfit that Vector Prime had placed on her when he first gave her bracelet and she finally figured out how to do the hairstyle he gave her that day. At first, she tried to cut it but it was a no go. The only time it would be short was when she was in her hunterss's form. So she made do with what she had but left a mental note to give Vector Prime a piece of her mind next time she saw him. She looked out the window seeing all the other students and was getting a little worried. *Oh dust! What am I going to do?! I haven't been in civilian school since the year before I started going to Signal! And I'm bad at talking to people, it was bad enough on my first three day's at Beacon!*

At the thought of her first day at Beacon Yang ditching her to be with her friends. Then she bumps into Weiss which then she began yelling at Ruby while flinging that unproperly sealed fire dust that made Ruby sneeze. Which caused the dust to explode and Weiss yelled at her some more. At least until Blake step in, but then left as soon as Weiss did. Which yeah okay she got to make friends with Jaune at that moment but still her first day was bad and it got worse. When she got back together with Yang and Weiss found her and yelled some more. Then, later on, that night got yelled some more by Weiss when she found her and Yang when they were talking to Blake. Then the next on day during initiation she ended up becoming Weiss's partner which later on in the school year Weiss becomes a great partner. But at first, it was a living nightmare. And things only got worse that day until they were given their team's that day. But then it became bad again with how Weiss thought that she was a better choice as the team leader than Ruby. And told Ruby that Ozpin made a mistake about Ruby being the team leader, Ozpin ended up having to give Ruby a talk to help her get her confidence as the team leader back up. *I really don't want to repeat those three days!...?! Wait did Ozpin know I'm Optimus reborn?!*

Optimus felt that something was up with Ruby and he wanted to know what it was. "Is something wrong Ruby?"

Ruby sighed. "It's just I haven't been in a civilian school for a long time and I just don't really know if I can do this. I mean Yang is the social butterfly and I had a very bad first three days of school when I started to go to Beacon. How am I supposed to fit in? I mean at my school we talk about weapons, fighting, saving our world. But even on Remnant civilians teens only care about their looks, who is dating who, and the latest trends. Sure those things did matter to my classmates at Beacon. But not as much because we were learning to fight for our and other's lives."

Optimus thought about what Ruby said for a moment. "Ruby do you have any memory of the day I became Optimus Prime?"

"A little... Why?"

"Do you remember how I felt when I became a Prime?"

"Somewhat... I remember being confused because I didn't go to Primus to become a Prime. But to try and save his life, so Cybertron could be saved."

"And?"

"I also felt lost."

"Anything else?"

"I guess I kinda felt like I do now because I didn't even know the first thing of being a Prime. Even if I had every memory of each Prime before me."

"Exactly you have gone through so much already even if your only starting to remember. And I'm sure that even though you had a bad first three days at Beacon that you learned from your past mistakes."

"Yeah, I guess..."

"Ruby just take what you learned so far in both yours and mine and use what you know to get through the day."

"Yeah I guess your right"

"Just go in and do the best you can, that is all I ask that you do."

Ruby smiled at Optimus. "Aright, I'll try."

"Good."

Optimus opened his door and Ruby climbed out. The door closed and Optimus started to leave and Ruby waved at him goodbye.

Ruby then walked into the school and saw that the office was right by the front doors just like Agent Fowler said it would. Normally all students get their class schedule in the gym. But since the school thought that she is from another country like Miko. She had to get her schedule from the office. The didn't want it were a foreign exchange student to get lost on the first day so they like to take them to their first class of the day. But when next semester comes she'll have to get her schedule from the gym like the rest of the students. She walked in and saw a girl was in the office as well. Which the girl saw Ruby and smiled at her. "Hey, you new here two?"

Ruby nodded her head. "Yeah, I'm from a small island that is not either shown, named shown on a map not even online."

"Wow, that got to be one small island. What is it called?"

"Remnant."

The Girl just gave her an odd look. "Why is it called Remnant."

"It's called Remnant because we believe that we are remnants of a forgotten past. A past that we may be doomed to repeat itself without us even knowing it."

The girl's eyes were wide and Ruby thought that she was starting to see stars in them. "That is awesome! Your from an island that has no history that is soo cool! You don't need to deal with history class!"

"Um... We still have history to learn."

At hearing that the girl became confused. "Huh?..."

"What I'm trying to say is that we believe that we were more advanced in technology than we are now. But something happened and we lost everything and I mean not even an archaeologist can find any traces of that past. So at some point, we had to start all over with no knowledge of what we have done in the past. So we have a new history."

*Glad Dr. Oobleck told me about that in one of his history classes.*

The girl nodded her head at hearing Ruby's answer. "Oh I get it, its like out with the old history in with the new."

Now it was Ruby's turn to nod her head at that. "I guess you can put it like that."

The girl extended one of her hands to Ruby. "Well, my name is Miko Nakadai. What's your name."

Ruby smiled and took her hand. "Nice to meet you Miko, My name is Ruby Rose."

At hearing Ruby's name Miko smile grew. "Dude that is a sweet name. So how old are you? I'm 15 years old so I have to take the 10th grade."

"I just turned 16 some time ago and going to be in 11th grade, sorry about that but maybe if we have the same lunch we can eat together."

"That is okay and yeah I'll like eating lunch with you if we have the same lunch."

The two smiled and two teachers walked up to them and one of them spoke up. "Miko Nakadai?"

"That's me!"

"I'm your first-period teacher if you would follow me."

"Alright."

And with that Miko and the teacher left. Ruby looked at the last teacher who looked back at her. "So you must be Ruby Rose?"

Ruby only nodded her head. "Well, I'm your first-period teacher so follow me."

Ruby just walked with the teacher and stayed quiet.

The two made it to the classroom. "Well here we are and here is your class schedule."

Ruby took the sheet of paper. "Okay thank you."

At hearing that the teacher nodded her head. "Your welcome now let's get inside."

Ruby did as she was told and walked into the classroom. Once inside she saw the classroom was a two seated tables. She also saw on the chalkboard said ^Pick a seat.^ Ruby looked around the room and saw two things. One Jack was in the classroom and two he was by himself. So Ruby looked at the teacher who looked at her. "Go take a seat, Miss. Rose."

And with a smile and walked over to Jack. Which as she walked the other boys in the classroom were looking at her and were trying to get her to sit with them. Even Vince was trying to get her to sit down next to him. But Ruby just kept on walking to Jack feeling that she would be safer sitting next to him.

Jack was looking out the window trying to ignore the other boy's attempts on hitting on some girl. He would have looked to see who it was if it wasn't for the fact that Sierra was already seated by her friend. But then someone started to talk to him. "Hey, it's Jack right?"

At hearing the familiar voice talking to him he whipped his head to see a familiar face. *Oh, rats I thought she was in the 9th or 10th grade. I mean she is so short and looks so young that I didn't even think she would be in my grade! But she is in my class and I promised her I'll help her out when she needs it.*

Jack then looked around the classroom and saw that all the boys even Vince was giving her a hungry look when some the girls were looking at her with envy. "And right now it looks like she needs a friend!*

"Yeah, that's my name, and your's is Ruby right?"

She smiled at him and nodded. "Yep, that is my name. By the way is this seat taken? It's just your the only other person I know here... Well besides the 10th-grade foreign exchange student I just meet today."

"Yeah, sure go right ahead."

Ruby's smile grew which made Jack glad to help her. "Grate! Thank you so much."

"Your welcome."

The class wouldn't start for another 5 minutes and Ruby thought of something. "Hey, Jack."

"Yes, Ruby what is it?"

"I was wondering if you can show me your class schedule? I mean... if it is alright with you of course. I just wanted to know if we had any other classes together."

Jack understood what she was getting at. As she said she only knew him and one other student in the school. So she wanted to see if one of her only friends had more than one class with her. "Sure, I don't mind."

Jack pulled out his class list and the two looked at the two schedules. Only for their eyes to widen at what they saw.

At that moment Vector Prime was watching what was happening and smiled at what he saw. "I wonder if either Ruby, Jack, Optimus, or Jack future life will figure out that I was the one who messed with their schedules?"

Um... Ruby, did you ask the school to have it where we have all of the same classes?"

Ruby shook her head. "No, I didn't. I only knew your name I didn't know how old you are or what grade you are in. Heck, I didn't even know what grade I was going to be until one of the guardians told me how school grades work. Because schooling where I'm from is different than how the US does it."

Jack just looked at her for a moment and saw that she was telling the truth. "Okay, I believe you. But on the bright side at least you have someone to help you out with finding all the right classes."

At hearing that Ruby smiled and nodded her head. "Right."

And soon after class started.

Later on, at lunch Jack and Ruby were in the lunch line Jack was in front of Ruby and soon as they got in line a very young boy got in line, Ruby smiled at the boy. "Hi, my name is Ruby Rose. What's yours?"

"Rafael Esquivel, but you can call me Raf."

"It's nice to meet you, Raf, by the way, how old are you?"

"I'm 12 I got to skip a few grades and I'm starting 9th grade."

"That must be both exciting and scary?"

"Yeah, it is."

"I know what you mean. Back on Remnant our grading system is different. And back home I ended up skipping two years of schooling but since my education was way different than how it is done here. They put me in the grade that is closest to my age."

At hearing that both Jack and Raf looked at her in wonder. Which Jack was not happy with how the government downgraded Ruby. *Back on her home island she got to skip two grade and then when she got here they drag her back down?! Not cool! They should of let her stay in the grade that she was in.*

When Raf felt a bit more comfortable being around Ruby since she knew what it was like. *She skipped some years as well? That makes me feel like I'm not all that weird here.*

Ruby just went on talking. "Yeah, the only reason they did that is because one Remnant didn't teach US history at all. And the second reason is that on Remnant we didn't start High school until we were 17 years old and didn't get out of high school till we are about 20 years old."

At hearing that both Jack and Raf's mouths were wide open in shock and they both said the same thing. "What?!"

Ruby just smiled at them. "Yeah, Remnant has a higher expectation when it comes to schooling. Sure there were some schools that are like this one in Remnant but if you wanted the job that I want you had to go for the long run schools."

At hearing that the two boys nodded their heads. *Okay I take back what I said about how the government was being unfair to Ruby. For all the government and I know our 11th grade is the same as whatever grade Ruby was in back on her island.*

Just then the three got done getting their food and left the lunch line and Ruby saw Miko. "Oh, their's Miko I promised her that I would eat lunch with her if we had the same lunch period. Hey, Jack, Raf do you want to eat with us?"

Both boys smiled at her and nodded their heads. The three walked over to Miko who saw them coming and she smiled at them. "Hey, Ruby! Who are your friends?"

Ruby pointed at Jack first. "This is Jack he is in my grade and we met before the school year started at a store so he been helping me out."

And then she pointed at Raf. "And this is Raf he skipped a few years and is in the 9th grade. Which I get because back home I skipped a few years but the US school system put me back down. Because normally we get into high school at 17 years old and get out of high school at around 20 years old."

Miko was smiling at them at least until Ruby brought up how long they stay in school in Remnant. That was when she gave a look of horror. "You have to stay in school longer than us! Man, that is scary!"

Ruby only shrugged her shoulders. "Eh, it isn't all that bad."

Soon the three sat down and the four of them began to their lunch and they were enjoying the lunch and company. At least until Vince came up to them. "Hey, hot stuff. Why are you eating lunch with these losers? When you can eat lunch with me."

At that moment Ruby looked at him and her eye's widened but not for what the others think. *Oh my Dust! Not only does this creep act like Cardin Winchester! But looks like him all this boy would need to do is to change his hairstyle since they have about the same hair color. And get some indigo contacts to get rid of those green eyes of his, and he could pull off Cardin! What is he Cardin's past life or something?!"

"Um... I'm eating with my friends. And why would I want to eat with a jerk that looks like another jerk I knew back at my old school?"

At hearing what Ruby said everyone all turned around and watch what was happening. Even the lunch ladies were watching what was happening. Many of the students Miko included had their cells out videotaping what was happening. "Well, I'm the most popular boy in school. When Darby here is a dippy."

"No, you think your the coolest boy in school. When really you're the jerk that no one wants to be around, and those who do hang around you are either just as bad as you or scared little two-year-olds that don't want to be picked on by you."

This was getting Vince mad. "Why you, what gives you the right to say that?! I'm the richest boy in Jasper!"

Ruby only gave him a deadpan look. "And I care why?"

"Because I can get anything I want when I want it!"

"Well, I'm one person that you'll never get to date. Because you remind me of a jerk who would pick on my friends Jaune and Velvet. Along with some other students. In fact, you even look like him, if you just change your hairstyle and get some contact lenses. You could fool me into believing that your Cardin Winchester. You two are so alike that it isn't even funny, it's scary."

At hearing that and seeing the look on Vince made Jack smirked. He was glad that someone was putting Vince in his place. "And another thing, in the school that I come from all the women would not date jerks like you because of your just a death wish. We would go after the types of boys that look cool but you call big dorks, We go for smart people like Raf. We go for kind sweet boys like my friend Jaune. We also go for boys who are responsible like Jack."

At hearing at what Ruby just said shocked both Jack and Vince at what she just said but she wasn't done yet. "So do me a favor and leave me alone. Because I won't be any acquaintance of yours."

At that moment Vince had it and try to punch Ruby which as soon as the lunch ladies called the principal for help and telling him what was going on. But before Vince could hit her she moved in what she thought was slow but to everyone else there she looked like she was going really fast. She grabbed his arm and she pinned him down to the table and he wasn't happy at all. When Ruby was quite proud of herself. *Thank you Autobots for your combat training so far.*

When the principal and security staff got their Vince tried to pin the blame on Ruby but she wasn't having any of it. "I just told him the truth about him being a jerk and then he tried to punch me. I pinned him down to defend myself from a physical assault. I didn't hit him at all so he is in the wrong and if you don't believe me, you just need to look at one of the other student's cell phones and see their video recording of what happened"

The principal looked at her. "That won't be necessary Miss. Rose. One of the lunch ladies told me what happened before I got her. And even though you didn't need to go and say what you said to him. I don't know if how you reacted towards him is what your people do on Remnant or just you. So you're free to go, just try to be a little nicer with what you say from now on."

Ruby nodded her head. "I'll try but where I'm from people like Vince need to be taught a lesson. That's how we do things back home to jerks."

The principal sighed at hearing that. "I'll keep that in mind."

He then looked at Vince. "And as for you normally you would be expelled from school for a few weeks for you trying to punch her. But since it is a start of a new school year I will let you just get a two month after school and lunch detention. Starting right now go get your lunch and come with me."

Vince was about to protest but the look that the principal gave him made him stop. "So he grabs his lunch and left with him."

Everyone was now looking at Ruby who was now eating a strawberry in a childish way that made her look like she was as old a Raf. But soon everyone was back to eating their lunch.

Back at the Autobots base, the Autobots, and Agent Fowler found one of the students that were doing a live stream of what had happened at lunch at Ruby's school. Even the part of the principal taking Vince away. Agent Fowler was the one to speak up. "Well... She really doesn't like bullies."

Every Bot except Optimus nodded their heads at that. "Yep."

Optimus just kept on looking at the screen.

After school Jack, Miko, Raf, and Ruby were walking together. "So Ruby do you want to hang out?"

"I wish I could Miko but one of my caretakers are picking me up right after school. And There is a rule where I have to ask ahead a time if I want to be out with friends after school."

"That's cool...! Hey, can you give me your number so I can call you whenever."

"Sure."

Ruby gave Miko her scroll number and then did the same for Jack, and Raf. They each sent a text to her which then Ruby pulled out her scroll which caught all of their eyes. "Wow, where did you get that?!"

Ruby looked at them and then at her scroll and put two and two together. "Oh, this? One of my caretakers works for a cell company and I'm just being one of their testers at the moment."

"Wow, that is so cool."

"Thanks, Raf."

Just then Optimus pulled over. "Well, that's my ride. Got to go see ya!"

"See ya, Ruby!"

"See ya tomorrow."

"Bye, Ruby."

And with that Ruby got into Optimus and he drove off.

As Optimus was driving he thought about the best way to talk to Ruby about her day. And he couldn't think of one, so he just went for it. "So Agent Fowler found a video about what happened at lunch today. Do you want to talk about it?"

Ruby sighed at that. "I guess I maybe went a little Blake on him."

"If I recall Blake is your sister's partner."

"Yes, she is or was...I don't know anymore. Anyways on Remnant, the Faunus were discriminated and treated wrong for years. Things did get better for them over time. But it still pretty bad in some parts of Remnant."

"That is very unfortunate."

"Yeah, it is, at one point around when my team was little a Faunus only group was made called the White Fang."

At hearing this brought some concern to Optimus as to why Ruby brought this group up. Since she had said that name before and not in a good way. "If I recall, the White Fang was the group that helped attack your school during the Fall."

"Yes, they were... But back in the beginning, they were a very peaceful organization. That used to do nonviolent protesting and at that time Blake and her parents were part of the group."

At hearing that shocked Optimus at hearing that one of Ruby's teammates were part of such a violent group and that the group was once nonviolent."

Ruby looked out the window as Optimus kept on driving. "But when the founder steps down from being the leader and left the group. The one who took over change the group from nonviolent protesting. To as violent as you can get, and becoming the Remnant version of the Decepticons."

At hearing that Optimus stop right there and Ruby jolted and Ruby looked around thinking that said Decepticons were somewhere nearby or something. But what was really was going on was Optimus was just so shocked at what Ruby just told him. *Even in her time the Decepticons live on in her time with a new name?!*

"Um... Optimus are you okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine I just didn't think you were going to compare them to the Decepticons is all."

Ruby nodded her head and Optimus started to drive again. "Yeah well, Blake parent's left the White Fang when the founder left. But Blake stayed for a while because of her old partner Adam Taurus. Who is also the one who cut off Yang's arm."

At hearing that Optimus wanted to stop again but didn't because he didn't want to scare Ruby again. "I see."

"Yeah, it's just... A lot has happened that night and even after that night as well."

The two stayed quiet for the rest of the ride back to base.

Back at base, Ruby did her homework first then did some training and then did some maintenance on Crescent Rose after she was done with Crescent Rose Ruby worked a bit on her side project. Just then her scroll was ringing so she picked it up. "This is Ruby."

"Hey, this is Jack."

"Hey, Jack what's up."

"Oh, my mom was wondering if you, Miko, and Raf would like to come over for dinner tomorrow?"

"Hold on I need to go ask first."

Ruby walked out of her room and saw Optimus walking by her room. "Hey, Optimus a friend is wondering if I can come over for dinner tomorrow? His mom wants to make sure that his three new friends are in a good crowd."

Optimus thought about it for a moment before nodding his head. "I don't see why not just call me when you are done and I'll pick you up afterward."

"Okay, I will."

Optimus smiled at her and he walked away. When Ruby went back into her room and put the scroll back to her ear. "He said sure I just got to call him when we are done so he can pick me up afterward."

"Great I'll let my mom know. See you tomorrow at school."

"Okay see you tomorrow Jack."

And with that, they hang up their phones and Ruby went to bed.
