RWBY and the GOSE
Red Part 2
"What, what happened here," Ruby asked? "Well you know, grimm, fighting, explosions, the usual." "But this, this doesn't seem right." "Ruby, as much as I'd
like to answer your questions look at the sun right now." While looking at Graham Ruby tilted her head slightly, Graham however just pointed up to the sky
with his thumb. Ruby looked up but quickly shut one of her eyes. The sun wasn't above their heads anymore, "It's past noon already, if we want time to train
and get back to Beacon we have to start now." Ruby while bringing her arms closer shouted "Okay! "So uh how should we start," Ruby asked? "Well it's best
if we warm up first so stretch a bit, maybe swing your weapon around, jog a lap or two." With a quick glance around Ruby knew that jogging was probably
out of the question so instead she opted for the more fun route. In a quick and elegant flurry she brought out Crescent Rose sticking it into the ground in her
usual manner. "Oooh, nice," Graham clapped. Ruby took a few steps away from Graham and began swinging around Crescent Rose, after a good minute or
two she stopped laying Crescent Rose gently on her shoulder. "That a rather nice weapon." "Thanks," Ruby said turning slightly blush "forged it myself."
Graham sat down on the stump of a tree only a few feet away from Ruby and gingerly caressed his chin.
A minute went by though it felt much longer, Graham just stared at Ruby and Crescent Rose, mostly at Crescent Rose. Ruby wrapped her arms around
Crescent Rose tighter and stepped back a bit but Graham's eyes remained the same. "So aren't you going to warm up?" Graham's eyes shot open for a
second "oh uh right, it should get here about any time now." It took Ruby a second to realize what was about to happen, but when she did she shielded her
eyes from the incoming ash. Slam, the locker lodged itself into the ground next to Graham. As the dust spread out she heard Graham coughing "I shouldn't
have tried to look cool." The dust soon settled and Graham started putting in his passcode to his locker, "You know I never quite understood why they made
these locker's so big." "I mean I guess it's useful for people like you, who have big weapons, but ya know once a weapon reaches a certain size I find it that it
becomes too ornery to use." The locker then opened, the door blocking Ruby's view of the inside. "Ruby, meet D. Torres." After that introduction what
she saw left Ruby only a tiny bit disappointed. Graham pulled out from a the locker a one handed, single edged, straight longsword. It's hilt was curved and it
had some cushioning on and around the pommel to act as a stock. White leather was wrapped around the hilt, but the cross guard and the blade itself was a
red slightly darker than Crescent Rose. It was a bit bigger and thicker than Jaune's sword, but was still relatively small compared to many other weapons
at Beacon. The blade was consistent in size and thickness going straight up though a few inches from the tip the blade stuck out a bit and was slightly thicker.
Running up along the back connected to the blade was a square gun barrel. The barrel was slightly wider than the blade and it stopped about 2 inches from
the tip of the sword. Circular holes about an inch wide in diameter were bored into the the black barrel. On the barrel side of the sword connected to the hilt
and cross guard was a trigger.
"Alright Ruby I want you to come at me as hard as you can," Graham said pointing the blade to Ruby. "You're not gonna warm up or anything," "nah I'll be
fine," "you sure," "eh probably." Graham had his eyes locked on Ruby, she jumped back. Ruby hesitated for a second but then jumped to the side and
rushed forward slicing at Graham. She sliced into something she could feel it, was it his sword. No if it was, she would have been able to wrap her scythe
around it, the thing she hit was solid and bigger than her scythe's blade. Ruby quickly turned around and looked towards Graham. He was still facing Ruby,
still pointing his sword towards her, still looking at her with the same eyes. His clothes weren't even rustled, Graham smiled and nodded his head once at
Ruby. Ruby rushed forward again but then blasted herself the the right, then forward, left, and back. She had a clear shot on Graham's back. Again she fired
her rifle propelling herself forward and slashed, the momentum was enough to keep herself going for quite a bit but she slammed her legs into the ground
and swiftly turned around again to face Graham. "Ready when you are," Graham said with a grin on his face again looking to be in perfect condition. Ruby's
face scowled, she then ran forward and jumped when she reached the apex of the jump and was a few feet higher than Graham she blasted herself
downwards intending to slice Graham in half. However with a loud thud the moment she blasted downwards Ruby's entire body slammed face first into
something. A paper thin transparent yellow square was seemingly being projected from Grahams left hand. With one arm he pointed the barrel of his rifle up
towards the plastered Ruby and he released his entire magazine into Ruby. The bullets went through the yellow shield and slammed into Ruby, she turned her
head away from the bullets but a couple still nailed her in the head. Graham closed his left fist and the projection disappeared. Ruby then fell to the ground
slamming her already dizzied head into the ground. "Alright take 5 then we'll go at it again," "ugh, okay." What was that semblance, how fast is Graham,
could she overpower him, all these questions Ruby thought about but all that came to mind was uuugggghhh. Graham then sat on a tree stump a few feet
away from Ruby. Some time had passed as Ruby laid on the ground focusing on recovering. Once again she found herself listening to the land.
The land seemed to make a soft sad wail as the wind passed through it, she hadn't noticed it but clouds now shrouded the sun. That incident at the school
earlier, Wulf was what that student had said. Why would a few students suddenly attack En like that, he wasn't Faunus he didn't have the ears and he wasn't
wearing anything on his head. Could Wulf have anything to do with the White Fang, maybe a member, or maybe another name? Ruby decided not to worry
about it but she would remember to ask Graham later. More than 5 minutes passed, is he okay, Ruby thought to herself. She picked herself up and walked to
Graham, he was fast asleep softly snoring. Ruby merely shrugged and went to sleep along with her supposed teacher.
