Hello readers, hope your pumped for the second chapter of Chained Destiny. But before that, I want to acknowledge all the people that have already viewed and placed me in their favourites, a huge thanks to you guys and here's to hoping you'll enjoy the rest of my 'content.' Right. Now to the story.

Chapter 2

Pushed, shoved, and dragged through a crowed hallway of students pushing up against each other, chatting away aimlessly, navigating the halls. I'd only been incapacitated, a few moments ago, but the girl next to me, I glanced to the ginger who walked along side me. 'Nora Valkyrie, clearly she had no respect for the injured because she tore me from the bed I'd laid on, still battered, bruised, and bloodied and pulled out the door of the room, into this crowd of people that were trotting along. I had tried to ask her questions all the while we were stuck, but she would just smile and give me short-handed answers, which seemed to only serve to make my life harder.

I inched my head to the side and groaned, at the pain and discomfort, I felt in my neck. Nora, gradually seemed to notice my pain, she reached up, and tugged on my ear gently. I glanced back down at her, she smiled cutely.

"You, doing alright there Jauney?" she asked. "Seems to me like that neck is giving you some trouble." Still smiling she reached up behind her back, clutching at something hidden behind her jacket and someways down her skirt. She continued smiling, "I could get rid of it for you, if you wanted?"

My hand quickly darted up to my neck, ignoring the pain, I reigned back from her, eyes wide in shock and fear.

Noticing my horrified expression, she brought her hand back up in front of her empty, chuckling nervously.

"Kidding! kidding! just kidding, it was a joke, hahahaha."

Considering her reaction, giving a wild guess, the offer, was legitimate.

'This chick, she's insane, entirely insane, just like girl that killed me. And knowing what she did to me, this girl seems like she would do the same.'

And saying that, as she reached out to grab me, I forced my way between two students, my attempt to get away from her. Forcing some other students through some other students, shoving my way around, ever so slightly glancing back at her, trying to catch me, calling my name.

I looked back to start moving again but was forcefully shoved from behind, out the nearest exit, finding myself outside.

Dark skies and clouds, stone monument of creatures clawing their way out of a small crevasse, two humanoid figures standing tall above them. Two large wooden doors leading back into the academy to my left.

Quiet, peaceful, serene, no noise, just, quie-

"You moronic half-breed!" a feminine voice cut through my thoughts shifting my focus over to the statute.

Female figure, fashioned in all white. White hair tied up into a ponytail, towering over a smaller figure harder to see from this angle.

'Should I scope it out? no! bad idea, getting involved with these people, cause me only trouble. So I should just mind my own business and-'

"Hey, I gestured to the girl, everything alright here?"

'Fuck! how do you unknowingly walk over to someone and start a conversation...IT MAKES NO FUCKING SENSE!'

I did now have a better look at the hunched figure. Red cloak, drawn back across a white shirt, sleeves rolled up, black jeans, black boots with a red sole. Black hair that lead down into red tips, swept over her eyes.

Focusing my attention back to the girl in white, glaring at me, making me instinctively step back. She eyed me warily, a look of disgust spreading across her face as she retched away from me.

"My business," she hissed at me. "Does not concern a vampire, leave!"

I swallowed nervously but spoke back.

"It does, if your bullying this girl," my voice wavered and shook and I withered under her glare inside but stood my ground.

She growled at my response then pointed at the girl on the floor.

"She! ruined expensive cargo, hard too replace, and expensive, she! must pay it all back in full."

Crystals shaped thinly and scattered along the ground, different in colour and some, even moving around sporadically.

"Yes," I said. "But this does not mean you can just, put her down and make her feel like she has no worth, who are you to think you can do that?"

She looked shocked at my answer but her expression changed soon quickly to that of anger and growled at me.

"HOW DARE YOU! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?"

I anticipated and gave her a hesitant shrug which fuelled her anger.

"WEISS SCHNEE! DAUGHTER OF JACQUES SCHNEE, THE WARLOCK THAT OVERSEES AND MANAGES THE MULTI-MILLIONAIRE SCHNEE DUST COMPANY," she screamed at the top of her lungs at me, and a flinched from her tone of voice but answered her simplistically.

"Doesn't ring a bell.'

She was lost for words, clenching her fists she turned and stormed off, mumbling something under her breath.

"I think I broke her," I chuckled to myself.

Focusing back to the girl on the ground, I outstretched my hand.

"Need some help," I asked her curiously, two unnerving set of silver eyes, peaked up at me from strands up hair, and instead of grabbing my hand she shot past it and wrapped herself around me hugging me tightly.

"THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH," she cried in to my chest.

Flailing around helplessly, arms limp beside me I let her hug me.

"THAT WAS SO SCARY I THOUGHT SHE MIGHT HURT ME," she gave me no time to speak raising up on to her toes her face close to mine so much that it made me uncomfortable. "Say, your a vampire right?"

I nodded my head slowly and she smiled brightly.

"That means were similar, I'm a ghoul," she said. "I consume the flesh humans, animals, anything I can prey upon."

That sentence was enough to almost make me spew.

She reached into her pocket and retrieved a small, compact, meaty cube popped it in my mouth.

"Try one," she said.

The texture and the smell was almost enough to make me throw up but it satisfied this hunger I hadn't felt until I ate the cube. Forcing myself to swallow, This girl had stopped talking giving me a chance to respond, though she still hand her arms wrapped around me.

"Um, so...hi? I'm Jaune Arc and you are?"

The girl continued to smile.

"Ruby Rose," she responded.

"Right, Ruby, um, I'm sure we should have been in the auditorium a few minutes back and I;m sure we really late.

Ruby's smile fell and her eyes widened.

"Oh shit."

Chapter 2 done, I rushed slightly, mostly because I making this around 2am and I'm about to go to sleep. And as soon as I wake up I'm gonna work on chapter 3. see you guys later, BAIIIIIIIIIIIII.
