Chapter 29:

2 months later

The moon was shining bright on a warm chilly evening. The mood was full and so was Ruby's mind with thoughts. 2 months had passes since Ruby had joined Advanced Combat Workout, Beacon's training program for extraordinarily strong warriors. So far the only people admitted into the program had been the team leaders. Ruby had led the program with impressive results, performing the exercises and various strength tests flawlessly. Ruby Rose stood 7' 2" tall and weighed 145 lbs of nothing but lean developed muscle, which attributed to an extremely gorgeous athletic body.

Ruby's girlfriend Weiss was 5' 11" and weighed only 127 lbs. Although she was somewhat slender in almost all aspects, Weiss had plenty of fight inside her and Ruby admired that. The warrior in training hadn't surpassed her sister Yang however. Ruby's sister had taken Ruby's idea of joining ACW, and bent into bodybuilding.

The last 2 months Yang had been furiously lifting weights, sprinting, throwing javelin, shot put, and discus. The combination of exercises had bulked up the already substantial brawler into a sleek and dangerous powerhouse of strength and speed. After two months Yang had stopped the conditioning, in favor of lifting heavy weights. The bodybuilding continued but on a lesser scale so Yang could spare some time for the team and her girlfriend Blake.

Ruby with her height had surpassed Yang who was currently at 6' 5". That didn't mean Ruby was at her sisters strength level however. Yang weighed in at 225 lbs of muscle, hard and powerful muscle when compared to Ruby's developed muscles. Ruby had been working out 12 hours a day for the last 2 months, doing complex exercises that pushed the body and mind to extreme limits. The result had been Ruby's increase in memory recollection so that the dark haired leader never forgot anything worth remembering; the other permanent side effect was an irritating case of insomnia.

Ruby would wake up in the middle of the night and wander the grounds of Beacon. Sometimes Ruby would hear a voice inside her head telling her that she needed to brace her self, a major challenge would come when Ruby wasn't fully prepared. Other times Ruby thought about team RWBY's first assignment; to stop the Darkness Plague, which they had done somewhat successfully. 48 people had died however. Ruby turned her mind to her girlfriend.

Unfortunately Weiss was, at the moment asleep; there was nothing Ruby could do to change that. After all Ruby hadn't grown cold enough to wake her sleeping heiress in the middle of the night. 'My princess, who still loves me despite the distance I've kept from her with my training.' Ruby thought to her self. However unlike her sister Ruby couldn't just switch to something that was less time consuming. Her training was time consuming for a reason.

Despite the seeming advantage Yang had over Ruby when it came to strength, the two sisters hadn't yet gone hunting for Grimm creatures, the monsters that inhabited Emerald forest outside the Academy. Ruby wanted to go off killing Grimms soon, and with their weapons as well. Ruby hadn't touched Crescent Rose since she had started training; neither had Yang touched her own weapon Ember Cilia.

Yet despite all this both girls felt they had gained and aptitude for weapons that went somewhat beyond training. Neither of the sisters thought they would have much trouble fighting once they picked up their weapons again. Ruby puffed, her breath misting because of the chilly night air. Ruby had nothing on except for basketball attire. Ruby had gone from her trademarked red jacket, to a standard every day outfit, which consisted of a black AND1 hoodie, a pair of red and black Nike basketball shorts, and a pair of Vibram Five Fingers shoes.

Some people said Ruby looked like a goddess, a goddess who wore basketball workout attire. Ruby had been told she was gorgeous. Even in the seemingly unflattering outfit, Ruby still managed to look absolutely beautiful. This hadn't come from Ruby's friends, who saw her differently, it had come from other's mainly royals wanting to hire her as a mercenary soldier.

Ruby heard footsteps behind her, the cool night air refreshing her to sharpen the senses. Which was strange but not for an insomniac. Ruby decided not to turn around; the footsteps she heard were Weiss's light patter. Ruby had memorized the sound of her girlfriend's steps. Weiss put her arms around Ruby's waist and leaned her head against the middle of Ruby's back.

"What a nice surprise, I couldn't sleep so I got up. And what should I find but my very own rose suffering from insomnia. I'm am truly sorry you have this problem." Weiss said.

Ruby could tell when her girlfriend was lying to her, "You didn't get up in the night because you couldn't sleep. I've been up here for 7 hours." Ruby said.

"And what by chance have you been doing up here all alone? If you were lonely it's okay now, I'm here to keep you company." Weiss said. "And yes I do realize that it's 7 o' clock in the morning."

"I've been up here thinking that's all, nothing to be worried about." Ruby said.

"Your sleeping patterns are what has me worrying. I mean you don't get enough sleep and you need it because of your training." Weiss said genuine concern in her voice.

Ruby turned around and looked down into Weiss's light blue eyes. Ruby laughed, "You're so short Weiss. This time no high heals will save you." Ruby said in a condescending tone, which carried no weight behind it.

Weiss sighed in frustration, due to her girlfriend being a full foot taller than her. "Get down here and kiss me you dolt." Weiss said.

Ruby not wanting to see her princess upset complied with her demands. Calloused hands grabbed Weiss's shoulders and forced her head back. Ruby, not leaning down so much as enveloping her girlfriend, started kissing Weiss. Weiss moaned, drawing herself further into Ruby. 'I'm so lucky to have someone like Weiss.' Ruby thought as she deepened the kiss.

Deep within Ruby's subconscious Dragon Ruby was wrestles and it wanted freedom. It had been months since Ruby had possessed an ancient dragon; part of her still craved the dominance and raw power that came with being the mythical creature.

Ruby had only been in dragon form for a short time. Weiss had woken Ruby up by moving her body. The yearning was still there, to turn into her true form. However Ruby's mind mistook this for drive, and used it to motivate Ruby to be a powerful warrior. All the training to become a warrior was merely the Dragon's yearning for power.

Unfortunately for Ruby the more power she started to possess, the closer the Dragon came to taking its true form. When this happened, and it eventually would, it would make Ruby's body undergo a literal and physical transformation. Once the second dragon form ended Ruby would become half dragon half human. Which would allow Ruby to transform parts of her self into the Dragon but on a much smaller scale.

After the second transformation from full dragon into human was made, that was it. Ruby could never again fully transform her self into the mythological creature.
