A/N:
Sorry for the late uploads, I have so many things to do but now I'm free now, or so…
Anyway here is a new chapter for RWBY: Phantom
Now that things escalated quickly now that I didn't noticed or intended but no point of turning back now, until a rewrite happens, which is after this story…
A/N 2:
Well here is the revised version and I hope you all would like it considering the original is more an early reveal…
X
It has been two days since the forever fall incident and the day after the incident Ruby has recovered and she and along her classmates continued to do classes like normal… well almost if the non-stop questions and asking if she was okay from her Team and the others, which Ruby answered to the best of her abilities.
"But… Ruby…" Yang said in concern
"I'm fine Yang." Ruby said as she huffed her chest but winced a bit at the pain "Well mostly fine."
"Of course this would happen what made you do something so reckless!" Weiss interjected angry and concerned for her partner and leader… but there is something else but she couldn't place a finger to it…
"I… I don't want to lose mom a second time and I panic!"
"Well at least you -" Jaune's mouth was blocked by Pyrrha as she placed a finger to her mouth to stay silent then removed her hand away from his mouth "Ohh… right… sorry" he finished lamely.
When Prof. Ozpin told them about the silver eyes he made them promised to stay quiet and let Summer explain it to Ruby properly in which all agreed, however his little slip up made Ruby raised an eyebrow
"What?" she asked, as Cyclonis answered "You cleared the evac zone from Grimm that we escaped in one piece.", a half truth.
"But I don't remember anything about it…" Ruby said dejectedly looking down sadly
"Oh don't vorry about zat Ruby" Rip said as she patted Ruby at the back as she continued "You exhausted yourself and zen collapsed worrying all of us!"
"Yeah Ruby! You were so cool!" Aliasse chimed in trying in success to cheer the red reaper up
"Thanks guys, but… what happened to Cardin and his team?"
"Well Ozpin was a bit lenient on their punishment… so I did it for him." Cyclonis said nonchalantly ignoring the weird stares given
"Ohhh. What did you do? Did you break his legs?" Nora suddenly appeared in front of the black cloaked girl
"No… even worse, I broke his jewels along with his team." Cyclonis said as she walked pass a wide eyed Nora.
"Ummm… what does she mean by jewels? I don't think Cardin wear any of those." Ruby asked the wide eyed group except for Kallari who is now behind Cyclonis.
"When you get older Ruby." the group said in unison
"But…"
again the group yelled back a 'NO' which Ruby relented to ask further… but still that nagging feeling of what happened still in her head… if her team and the others won't tell her what really happened then she could ask mom… that's it Mom! She could have knew what happened… but she was knocked out… No she could have recovered quickly! With that in mind she waited until the classes finished, telling her teammates that she has to go somewhere first, telling them that she will be checking on Crescent Rose. Instead of heading to the armory, she headed to the guidance councilor's office instead.
Ruby knocked on the door and a 'come in' said back, she opened the door revealing a surprised Summer sitting behind her desk, files laid about on the desk as she looked at her daughter.
"Ruby!" she said in surprise "What are you doing here?"
"I… uh…" Ruby trailed off, Summer smiled as she said "It's okay dear, what do you have in mind? Come in" she gestured on the chair in front of her desk "Please take a seat"
With assurance from her mother Ruby went in and sat at the offered seat "Mom…" she began
"Yes, Ruby?"
"I was wondering… what happened during the trip two days ago?" Ruby asked her mother
"I…" 'sigh' Summer expected this would happen, but with the plan being pushed faster and her own daughter asking questions, 'Mom… what should we do?' 'Tell her of our heritage Ruby… but I digress if we should tell her everything…' Summer replied in her head, "Ruby dear, I think its time that you learn of your… our heritage,"
"Our… Heritage?" Ruby was confused "But what does it do with the incident in the forest?"
"Yes, the incident in the forest two days ago is connected, You see Ruby our silver eyes are not just unique to the other eye pigmentation. These eyes posses powers… with training we can just glance at the Grimm and they will disappear into thin air." Summer explained
Eyes wide Ruby suddenly stood up "P-powers!?"
"Yes it is, you see Ruby we are descendants of an ancient group of warriors that defended the people before the huntsmen and huntresses came to be, they are called the silver eyed warriors."
"They defended everyone before all of this!" Ruby said with a twinkle in her eyes
Summer smiled sadly, such innocence, "You could say that, but sadly they were all hunted down… and now here we are the last… two surviving warriors."
"What?" Ruby shocked at this revelation, when Summer said about this warriors they were heroes and they protect those in the past, but hearing what happened to them… "Why would someone do that?"
"There are some people, Ruby, that worship Grimm, very bad people, now I fear that they will caught wind of this and will also target you…"
"People… that worship Grimm!" Ruby exclaimed "But… the Grimm are…"
"Yes I know little Rose… the Grimm are evil and will stop at nothing to kill all of us. I never told you and Yang about this is that I do not want you to get involve Ruby, you and Yang… but now…" Summer looked solemn as she look at the eyes of her daughter, Ruby embraced her mother in a hug as she said,
"Mom… Its fine, I… I want to help! Isn't that we are training for?"
"Yes… but you could die Ruby!" Summer said as she hugged her daughter tighter "I do not wish to leave you and I do not want to lose you either." Tears fell on Summer's eyes
"You can train me to control it! I… I want to help!" Ruby said with determination, as Summer looked on baffled… she could just say no… but the look of determination in her daughter's eyes deterred what she could say, those eyes remind her… of herself, it reminded her of the future, the grim dark future and the reason why she came back in time… she clenched her fists and then released them,
"I see I could not change your mind?" Summer said quietly and then smiled, a genuine smile "You remind me when I was your age."
"That means…" Ruby said as her eyes widen. Summer nodded "Yes, I will train you in controlling those eyes. But not today," Summer glanced at the clock "It's getting late you should rest for tomorrow."
"I will mom!" just as Ruby left for the door Summer made one last mention, "Oh and Ruby? When will you admit your feelings on Miss Schnee?"
Fingers hovering the doorknob Ruby slowly turned her head towards her mother as a blush made its way, "H-how… I… uh" sputtering Summer made a small silencing gesture and said to the red faced girl "Don't worry your secret is with me," Summer winked as Ruby left and quietly muttered "but you should admit your feelings before it's too late" she grasped a pendant she hid under her clothes "I'm so sorry…"
A ghostly Summer placed her hand on the other Summer's shoulder
"Don't worry everything will be fine…" She reassured Summer.
