I'm sorry for the late update. Just got back from my vacation and suffered an irritating case of jetlag. Don't worry, not giving up on my story. It's too fun now that I've introduced my favorite color and character from Red vs Blue. So I made a really long chapter. Hope you enjoy it

WARNING: INCEST
Darkness blanketed the sky as the splintered moon shone above Remnant. The cold touch of the night enveloped the forests of Patch, Beowolves howling their ominous, dangerous melodies. The evening was quiet in the Xiao Long residence as its occupants were claimed by sleep's sweet embrace.
"Ah!"
Except for the Rose twins.
The elder twin was lying on her back on her bed, naked as the day she was born as Ruby rested between her legs, crimson locks caressing her thighs. Her twin was still wearing her panties as she thrust two fingers slowly, rubbing her walls deliciously as a wicked tongue licked and teased her clit. Onyx growled as she continued her torturous pace and reached down, gripping Ruby's hair roughly. The scythe wielder answered with a growl of her own as she lifted her head from her twin's wet lips and glared down at her.
"Behave." She hissed as she pulled her fingers out, and her twin inhaled between her teeth harshly. Crimson eyes narrowed as her twin leisurely sucked her fingers, moaning at the sweet taste of her sister. Onyx bucked her hips at that, chest heaving slightly as her twin taunted her. Not wanting to let this slide, she pulled her down and crashed her lips to her twin's lips.
The thick smell of arousal hung heavily in the air, assaulting the dark twin's senses. Onyx threw her head back with a throaty moan as Ruby leaned over her and cupped her breasts roughly, spiking her need. Her twins' chest was soft and perky like Ruby's as she pinched and twisted her nipples, drawing sweet cries from her beautiful sister. Ruby bent down to lick her left breast and fingers tightened on crimson locks as Ruby nipped them harshly, teeth scraping against the erect bud. Onyx slapped a hand to her mouth, muffling her loud cries.
"No!" Ruby snapped breathlessly as she grabbed her wrist and slammed it on her bed, her grip unyielding. "I want to hear you scream."
Onyx bared her teeth menacingly, crimson eyes dilated with lust. Ruby smiled darkly, knowing how close her twin was in losing that little self-control she had. It was always a game to her to see how far she can push her twin until she snapped. What came next ends up with her dark twin fucking her til she begged for mercy and she'd fuck her through that too, ignoring her pleading cries as she took her again and again until she passed out from the fucking high.
A small part in Ruby's mind pondered if that made her a masochist but would it even be considered masochism when she was brought to climax in the most pleasurable and mind blowing way possible? Maybe, maybe not.
Pushing that thought away, she claimed her sister's lips in a bruising kiss, teeth biting her lower lip before forcing her tongue in. Onyx moaned as she was overwhelmed by the feeling of her sister's lips, returning the kiss with fervor. She can taste herself on Ruby's tongue and her mind literally melted at the sensations running through her body. Nothing mattered except her sister and lover.
Breaking the kiss, dark silver eyes took a moment to admire her twin's swollen lips before she swooped down. Her twin whined helplessly as Ruby littered hard kisses and bites on her collarbone, tongue trailing up her neck.
"Don't fight it." Her voice low and seductive. Ruby licked her lips as she cupped her sister's ass with her free hand, nails scratching her bottom roughly. Onyx mewled, loving how possessive her touches were. She gritted her teeth when she felt the primal urge to force her dominance on her twin well up inside her.
Hips thrusts down her twin's pussy and she moaned in ecstasy. Onyx scratched her twin's scalp, emitting a strangled moan from Ruby before running her fingers down her sister's smooth back and wrapping her arm around her waist, fingers digging to her side as she set a hard and fast pace. Ruby growled, brushing her hand down her abs and her twin's breath hitched.
Onyx squeezed her eyes shut as two fingers suddenly plunged into her wet folds, breaths turning to pants as Ruby began thrusting roughly. Onyx was losing her mind to the sounds and smells of it all, her senses narrowing to the feeling of her twin taking her. Thoughts turned into a jumbled mess as Ruby inserted a third finger, not even slowing down as she upped the pace. Cries tumbled down trembling lips as Ruby sucked and nipped her twin's neck, marking the pale skin. Hips rolled behind her hand, pushing fingers deeper
"Come on, Nyx." She grunted against heated skin, shortening her twin's name in the throes of passion. Her sister dug her nails to her side, lips parted as if to scream but no sound came out as Ruby pounded into her twin's dripping pussy. The redhead can feel her juices running down her wrist as Onyx felt the pressure building inside, her mind numb to everything but her sister and the pleasure she was bestowing upon her.
Just as she was at the edge, just a thrust away from falling apart, Ruby pulled away.
Again.
Her fingers were soaked in her twin's wetness as Onyx couldn't decide whether to scream in frustration or wipe the smug smirk off her twin's face.
Ruby had the gall to even giggle as she lay there, her body trembling for release and blown crimson eyes glaring at the devil she calls her sister. The urge came back ten fold and she dug her nails to the sheets and Ruby's skin as her mind suggested the different ways to fuck her in every way possible.
When Onyx watched those same damn, teasing, wet fingers trace up her jaw, the evidence of her arousal wafting through her nose and sending her mind reeling, she snapped.
Ruby gasped as strong hands spun her around so her back lay against her twin's chest, arms wrapped around her stomach and breast. The scythe wielder shivered at the feeling of her nipples pressing into her shoulder blades. Crimson locks mixed with snow white as Onyx nipped her ear .
"You should know better, Ruby." A dark sinful voice purred. Hands slid up her breasts, fingers pinching and rolling her pink nipples. Ruby squirmed, fighting her sister's iron grip but Onyx growled in warning causing her to stay still. Fingers danced across her twin's abs and Ruby's breath hitch at the teasing touch. Unknowingly, Ruby had a smirk on her face.
'I'm gonna be sore after this.' and just the thought of it made her pussy gush. Onyx twitched at that and she couldn't take it anymore.
"Fuck!" Onyx snarled and tore her panties off with a rip. Ruby gasped but it was cut off as three fingers rammed into her pussy. There was no resistance and she quickly started a brutal pace, her thrusts so strong that she can feel the bed moving back and forth. Ruby cried out in pleasure, and she bit her lip hard when she felt her twin thrusting her pussy against her ass, her hot breath brushing against her cheek.
She can feel her ass getting wet from her twin's rutting and she whimpered as teeth bit her shoulder. Onyx pulled back and ran her tongue against the abused skin, eyes darkening at the marks that decorated her sister's neck.
"Don't you dare cum until I tell you to." The dark twin hissed. Ruby whined, feeling herself get closer to the edge. She can feel her twin's knuckles brushing against her folds as she slammed her finger into her pussy. Hips thrust relentlessly against her ass and she felt a hand palm her left breast.
"Please." Ruby begged. Dust, she was so close.
"Not yet." Onyx growled, forcing a fourth finger in. Ruby cried out, tears of pleasure gathering in the corner of her eyes. She forced herself not to cum but it was so fucking hard. The dark side in her twin wanted to prolong her torture but she quickly disregarded it when she felt her walls tightening. God, her twin was so irresistible.
"Onyx! Please! I need to cum! " Ruby whimpered pathetically, hands scrambling to grip her twin's wrist, trying to slow her thrusts down to prevent herself from cumming. The crimson haired twin knew that if she disobeyed, she'll tease her all night long and probably even go as far as not give her the release she craved for.
Finally.
"Cum." Onyx whispered, smirking as she slapped her hand on Ruby's mouth just as she the scythe wielder threw her head back and howled, her orgasm washing through her body leaving her limp and weak. Seeing her trembling body on top of her was enough to to send Onyx over the edge as she came, moaning. Her juices coated Ruby's ass and her twin mumbled incoherently, throat raw from her cries.
Ruby let out a barely audible gasp as Onyx suddenly flipped them over, laying her on her stomach with her fingers inside of her. She sat on her thighs and wrapped her free hand behind her neck. The crimson haired twin felt a surge of arousal as sensitive nipples brushed against sheets roughly.
"Wha-?" Her question was cut off as the dark twin started thrusting again, quickly picking up the pace. Crimson eyes watched with dark amusement as her twin muffled her cries with one hand and fisted the sheets with the other. She knew her twin was still sensitive from the last orgasm but she didn't care. Onyx almost looked unrecognizable as she pounded into her sister like a mad woman, her mind drunk from the sounds and smells of her twin.
"Cum for me." Onyx commanded, pressing her thumb into her clit and rubbing it. Ruby's body instantly reacted and she gave a muffled scream as she climaxed again. The scythe wielder was breathing heavily and her thighs were slick with her cum. Ruby couldn't protest as her twin roughly turned her over, her mind scattered and jumbled from her release.
Slowly, Onyx pulled her fingers away and her twin sister jerked her hips as they brushed against her clit. Onyx felt a surge of possessiveness as her twin lay there, marks painted around her neck and chest heaving with her juices running down her pussy. Half lidded silver eyes looked at her tiredly but with satisfaction.
Onyx watched on her knees between her twin's legs as Ruby finally got her breathing under control, sweat trailing down her forehead.
"You're mine." Onyx said huskily and her twin's eyes widened as the crimson eyed twin pushed her thighs apart and shoved her face into her pussy, tongue darting out to lick her wet folds. Ruby let out a hoarse scream as fingers tangled into black and white locks, unsure of whether to push her away or pull her closer. Her body was overloaded by pleasure, nerves sizzling and brain turning to mush as her twin thrust her tongue in her pussy, licking up her juices.
Onyx pulled away to look up at her like a ravenous wolf ready devour its prey.
"You taste so fucking good." Onyx growled, lips covered in her cum that she happily licked away, moaning at the sweet taste. Watching such an erotic display made her pussy clench and her breath hitch.
"You've cum twice already and you still want more?" The dark twin asked in a voice that oozed sex. Ruby tried to answer but her voice failed her. Instead, she thrust her hips up, indicating her need. Onyx chuckled darkly.
"Don't worry." Her twin crooned, eyes glinting in hunger and lust. "I'll keep fucking you until you can't feel your legs."
A weak moan was torn from her throat as her body reacted to her twin's promising words. If she thought she was going to be sore tomorrow then the mere chance of walking straight would be a miracle in itself once Onyx was done with her.
"Nyx." Ruby mumbled as fingers brushed against her ass cheeks. Fighting it was futile and she knew she couldn't deny her desires for her insatiable lover.
Red eyes gazed into her twin's entrance, lips pulled back into a snarl at the musky smell. Her twin blushed as Onyx continued to leer at her like a starved woman who hasn't ate for days.
"Ah!" Ruby cried out as her twin suddenly latched onto her dripping nether lips, sucking and licking vigorously. Onyx took everything she can, desperate for her sister's taste as she thrust her tongue in her wet hole. The crimson haired huntress squeaked when her twin squeezed her ass and pulled her legs over her shoulders giving her better access to her womanhood.
Ruby stifled her screams as Onyx thrust her tongue deeper, lashing and leaving at her inner walls forcing more cum to dribble down her mouth. The dark twin moaned sending vibrations to her pussy. Her twin let out a choked scream, fingers tightening around her head, desperate to keep herself grounded for what was going to be an earth shattering climax.
Hips started a thrusting up, forcing the wicked tongue deeper and she threw her head back, biting her hand as a strangled scream left her lips. Just when she thought she couldn't take it anymore, Onyx pulled her tongue back and scraped her teeth harshly against her clit.
She didn't stand a chance as her climax ripped through her in waves, her body trembling violently as she screamed herself hoarse against her hand. Onyx groaned, licking up all the nectar that trickled out.
And her twin fucked her again.
And again.
And again.
All night long.
The air was covered in the smell of sweat and sex as Onyx fucked Ruby continuously, not giving her a single break and ignoring her cries of mercy until finally, Ruby passed out from exhaustion.
The dark twin got up, a smug grin in her lips as her twin laid on her bed, bites and scratches covering her body and cum dripping onto her sheets. Her body was positioned on her side as sweat glistened from her skin.
Onyx nuzzled her cheek and Ruby unconsciously pressed closer, burrowing herself into her neck. She felt her twin sigh in her sleep and the dark twin wrapped her arms around her, purring in satisfaction.
Giving her a tender kiss to her forehead, she finally allowed sleep to claim her.
"Oh, I can't believe my sisters coming with me to Beacon" Yang said happily as she wrapped them both in her infamous bear hugs. They were riding a huge airship that was taking them to Beacon Academy. The sky was clear and sunny as they flew over Vale city. Various students were leaning into the windows, taking in the view of the city and their approaching destination. Today was their first day in Beacon Academy and the first year student were buzzing with excitement, nervousness and anticipation.
Three of those students were currently standing near one of the many windows in the airship as it made its way to the huntsmen and huntresses academy.
The twins choked, feeling their lungs about to burst against their sister's bosom. Thankfully, Yang let go of them after a minute of loving agony and placed a hand on their shoulder.
"This sure is the best day ever!" She exclaimed with a grin, her excitement growing at the thought of her baby sisters studying together with her. "Oh, I'm so proud of you."
The twins just scratched their head bashfully.
"Really Yang, it was nothing." Ruby mumbled, although feeling a bit of pride at her sister's words. Even Onyx allowed a small smile to turn her lips.
"Are you kidding me? It was incredible!" Yang interjected, pulling away, the smile never leaving her face. "You caught one of Vale's criminals, fought a bunch of bad guys and got into Beacon."
"Yeah, and I ended up being a teacher's assistant." Onyx grumbled unhappily. She yelped when Yang flicked her on the forehead.
"Don't be a stick in the mud" Yang chided gently and wagged her finger at her. "And you're technically a student too."
"With Professor Goodwitch. I swear that woman has it out for me." The dark cloaked huntress muttered, not really keen with the idea of having the strict blonde woman being her mentor. The dark twin preferred a laid back but firm teacher like Uncle Qrow or her dad but then again, they were her relatives and she was sure they acted differently when they're teaching in Signal.
"Its probably because you called her a big boobed lady the first time you met." Ruby smirked and Yang laughed loudly, catching the attention of some students.
"Well they are big. I mean they're bigger than Yang's boo- OW!" It was Ruby's turn to laugh this time as Yang slapped her sister in the back of her head.
"Don't insult my babies!" The blonde brawler scowled at the dark twin, cupping her boobs as though to protect her. That action was met by several male students bleeding through their nose, one of them even passing out from the provocative sight. The twins, however, noticed this and sent them all a dirty look that said, 'Look away or we'll rip your eyeballs off and replace them with your balls."
Of course, all of them seem to get the message and turned away faster than the speed of light, some of them even going as far as running away from the sisters' vicinity.
Yang didn't seem to notice and asked. "So since you're a TA, does that mean you won't have your own team?"
The dark twin nodded her head and nudged her twin as discreetly as possible when she kept on glaring at a poor boy who seemed to be shaking on his boots. Even with his back turned, he can still feel the crimson haired teen glowering with death in her eyes.
Thankfully, Ruby looked away with a huff and saved the young man from wetting his pants in front of everyone.
"Professor Ozpin that I'm more of a teacher than a student in the academy. He thinks it's for the best that I remain a TA rather than a teacher mostly because of my age. It would stir up trouble with the board of directors of the Hunter's Association." Onyx shrugged. "I don't blame him. Even I'd question how a 16 year old ended up becoming a teacher in Beacon. The only good thing about this is that at least I have my own room and only one other TA to meet."
"What!?" Ruby and Yang shouted simultaneously.
"Yeah, I'm supposed to meet him today after the welcoming ceremony." The crimson eyed huntress said.
"Not that, Onyx. You have a room for yourself?" Ruby asked, her face still in shock
"Seriously? That's what catches your attention?" Onyx asked drily. "Yes, I have my own room in the student's dormitory."
"Damn. You're lucky, sis."
"I fail to see how having my own room makes me feel lucky."
"Well you don't have a to share your room with three other people." Yang pointed out."And who knows? Maybe the teammates we'll have might end up being a couple of douches or worse, stuck up bitches." The blonde shuddered at that.
"Huh, didn't really think of it that way." Onyx mused then she gave them a cheeky grin. "Then I wish you two the best of luck."
Yang gave her sister the bird and Ruby settled for a pout that would have put even the most indifferent individuals a smile to their face and the most cold-hearted people to melt at the sight of such utter cuteness. Unfortunately, the crimson haired huntress' lethal weapon is completely immune to it's twin counterpart who barely reacted to it at all.
"You know I can give you detention for that." The dark twin pointed out to Yang with a smirk. It widened when both of them sobered up at that.
"You can do that?" Ruby asked, astonished.
"Yeah. Professor Goodwitch called me this morning gave me a really long talk of my duties as a TA, and a well respected member of Beacon Academy." The smugness was gone now as she gave an annoyed sigh, remembering the tiring conversation she had this morning and the underlying threats that the blonde Professor seemed to add in every sentence.
"Really? I thought you were doing the nasty before breakfast again." Yang said bluntly. Both of the twins blushed like a tomato at that and Onyx punched her in the arm, face still heating up in embarrassment. The day their sister and dad walked in on them doing it was the day that scarred them for the rest of their lives.
Flashback
"BOTH OF YOU IN THE KITCHEN NOW!" Taiyang roared,, lilac eyes turning red, steam drifting from his eyes that burned in uncontrollable fury. Yang stood next to him, her jaw dropped and a dumbstruck look on her face. They were both standing in the doorway as the Rose twins sat up on Ruby's bed, bodies bare under the blood red blanket that they shared. Shock seemed to be an understatement as they huddled together in the bed, completely stupefied and speechless.
They were very scared of their dad right now. He rarely raised his voice on them even when they cause explosion after explosion inside the house from their projects or when Yang comes home smelling like a bar.
Both of them shared a frightened and terrified look on their faces as their dad stormed off, cursing when the sound of wood being crushed filled the air before it was followed by a crunch. The footsteps that followed were still loud but had less force in them.
A sob soon escaped Ruby's lips as soon as their dad was out of hearing and Onyx immediately wrapped her arms around her protectively but the dark twin couldn't lie to herself. The fear and sadness in her eyes was there for the world to see and she dropped her bangs to her face, not wanting to show her vulnerability when her sister needed her now more than ever.
Different scenarios were playing in Ruby's head of what their dad would say to them, ranging from disowning them and kicking them out of the house or worse, taking away their dreams of becoming a huntress by informing all the headmasters of the hunter academies the disgrace they've become in his eyes. The younger twin couldn't take it anymore and she burst in tears, burying her face to her twin's chest as fingers dug deeply to her back.
Onyx ignored the pain, her heart shattering at their dad's inevitable rejection and the cries that spilled from Ruby's lips. She felt something wet running down her face and realized she was crying too, tears running down her cheeks. It felt like someone stabbed her heart with a knife and covered the blade in salt, stinging and cutting deeply into her beating organ. Part of her wished she could have been a normal loving sister but no, she had to have these incestuous and inappropriate feelings that no sister should have for her twin.
She wasn't even discreet about it. Her gazes lingering too long on Ruby's lips. Her eyes always darkening when her twin undressed in the same room as her. The way she licked her lips every time they drank milk together and every time, she had to force herself not to lean forward and succumb to her desires, propriety and righteousness be damned. Eventually, Onyx resorted to the one thing that she swore she'd never do: she avoided her twin.
It was subtle at first, taking a shower ahead of her twin followed by eating breakfast quicker than the speed of light. Sometimes, she'd get a stomach ache from how fast she'd eat and even their dad will tell her to slow down and joke that the food's not going anywhere. Onyx bore with it, otherwise she'd be force to endure the uncensored sounds her twin when she eats milk and cookies after breakfast. The dark twin was seriously considering of abstaining herself from the tasty treats but it would draw suspicion from everyone in her family and she'd probably die from sugar deprivation. Now that she thought about it, it's a miracle that she and Ruby haven't developed a single cavity from all the sweets they ate everyday.
Onyx would still train with her but even found that distracting rather than relieving because of the way her twin moved. Every twist and flip applied with precision and grace with a dangerous combination of quickness and lethality behind every strike. One time, she was distracted by the way her twin executed a back flip followed by a roundhouse kick that she didn't realize that it was aimed at her face. Needless to say, she lost the spar and ended up with a small concussion.
So the dark cloaked huntress made more efforts to avoid Ruby. Breakfast was taken in the workshop, training was taken in a secluded area ten miles away from their home where nobody would find her, and she'd work non-stop on projects and always made sure to keep their door close while wearing headphones and turning the volume to max.
It went on for months that it made Ruby hurt and confused and Yang and their dad worried. She was basically overworking herself, pushing past her limit for the sake of avoiding her twin sister. The only time they talked was when they say, 'Good night.' before bed but now, Onyx wouldn't look at her when she says those words in a rush, as if it was something that she wanted to get it over with. It hurt Ruby when Onyx didn't even cuddle with her when she had nightmares about her mom's death. Every time she'd approach her twin's bed, Onyx would tell her to just go back to sleep, annoyance and irritation plain in her tone as if she were being a nuisance. It broke Ruby's heart when she heard that and she'd ask in a soft, weak voice that her twin would have missed if not for her enhanced hearing.
"Why do you hate me?" Those words were filled with so much pain and despair that it almost broke her twin's steely resolve. She can feel herself dying inside and she felt like such a huge bitch when she heard and smelled the tears dripping down Ruby's face. Onyx reminded herself that this is for the best, that she'd be protecting her sister from her horrible and disgusting feelings that she kept inside. So with a deep breath, she opened her lips, hating herself with what she was about to say.
"It's nothing." She spat out harshly, not even bothering to turn around and look at her sister. "Just go back to sleep."
The monochrome haired twin can feel tears running down her eyes as soon as she said it, her heart constricting painfully and she bit her lip to contain the sobs that she knew would fall when she heard her sister whimper quietly, the sadness literally screaming at her despite its faintness. They were both hurting deeply from her stupid feelings. She repeated to herself that this is for the best, she didn't need to drag her sister through the dirt with her problems but a small part of her couldn't help but ask if all this pain and suffering is worth it. Her sister didn't deserve this.
Soft footsteps padded towards the door and she heard it open quietly before Ruby spoke again.
"You promised." There was no accusation in her words, just crippling pain and melancholy.
The click of the door closing allowed her to burst in tears, crying to herself as grief overtook her. Never in her life did she hate herself more than she did at that moment. This was her punishment, to be alone in this dark bedroom and having no one to comfort her. Not even Ruby, her precious sister.
It continued for three weeks before Ruby finally snapped. Onyx was working on some dust bullets for Midnight Rose when she heard a crash from the door even through her loud headphones. Sighing, she turned around with tired eyes to tell Yang or dad for the nth time that she was fine, only for her whole body to freeze as crimson eyes landed to her twin sister standing there in the doorway, the door pushed to the side. Ruby stood there with her pajamas on, and face streaked with tears, silver eyes red and puffy from crying but it didn't deter the anger and rage that churned within.
"Ru-"
"WHY DO YOU HATE ME?" She yelled, and Onyx cringed at the hoarseness in her voice and guilt immediately welled up in her when she realized that Ruby must have been crying for hours.
'This is for the best.' She reminded herself, her mind exhausted from the emotional pain that plagued her.
So painting an extremely exasperated look on her face, she answered with steel in her voice. "I don't, so can you-"
"BULLSHIT!" Her twin shoved her to the table, cutting her off again. Her tools rattled from the blow and she hissed in pain, her aura drained from all her intense training. Ruby got up right in front of her and she growled internally at the smell of roses.
Eyes blazing in anger, she got up right into her twin's face. "Just get out. You're -"
"Annoying me. I know." She snapped, not even backing down. "Just like I've been annoying for the past four months when we haven't even talked much less looked at each other!" The crimson haired twin screamed.
Onyx flinched at that but quickly slipped her mask back on before Ruby would notice. "Look, I'm busy-"
"You're always busy!" She roared right into her face, shoving her again."You never even hug me, train with me, eat with me much less talk to me! But you have no problem doing that with Yang or dad!"
Sighing through her nose and brushing her hair roughly, she forced herself to stay calm, remembering what is at stake here. Really wasn't a walk in the park for the dark twin right now. Right now, her sister was pissed, hurt and angry and she had every right to be and it was getting harder for her to keep herself in check. This is literally the most they've seen, heard, or talked to each other in the past four months and it was weakening her twin's resolve.
"It's noth-"
SLAP
"Stop lying to me." Ruby said angrily. Her twin's head snapped to the side, a bright red hand print on her cheek as crimson eyes looked back at her twin in shock before hardening, shooting her a cold look that would have froze the night.
"Get out." Onyx whispered dangerously, her control tipping dangerously from its balance.
"No! Just tell me why you hate me." She demanded but her anger showed her desperation to know, to understand what she did wrong, of how it all went wrong. "Is it because I'm needy?"
"Shut up." Her twin muttered quietly, jaw clenched as crimson eyes glared at quicksilver.
"Is it because I'm not strong like Yang?"
"Shut up." Onyx growled.
"Is it because I'm so annoying?"
"I said shut up!" Onyx yelled but her twin ignored her and uttered the words that sent a lance straight through her heart.
"Or you just never loved me to begin with?" Ruby whispered, her anger gone as tears poured down her eyes. Her breaths stuttered and choked, trying not to sob. The crimson haired twin looked away unable to stare into those beautiful red eyes, her fists clenched to her sides as her twin stood there, her face ranging from shock, sadness and finally settling on guilt.
Onyx swore that she would never abandon her, that she would always be there for her after their mother passed away but here she was, betraying that promise, and all for what, to hide the truth from her sister? The dark cloaked twin was wondering if all of this was really worth it.
"Ruby I-"
"Maybe that's it." Ruby laughed, the sound filled with pain and bitterness that it tore her twin's heart even further, her mind begging her to comfort her sister but somehow she stayed strong, if only barely, even if it killed her to see her sister like this.
"What?" Her twin whispered quietly.
"It's okay though." The smile she sent her twin was dull and empty that it may as well have been dead. Tears were still falling and she hiccuped slightly as she forced herself to continue. "I won't bother you anymore. I'll just leave you alone. That's what you want, right?"
'Is that what she wanted?' She asked herself as Ruby gave her one last lifeless smile, silver eyes filled with pain before she turned around and started walking out of the workshop, sobs pouring down her lips.
Ruby was three steps away from walking outside into the night when a voice inside Onyx's head screamed at her to do something
'Is this what she wanted?' The question echoed her mind as she stared on Ruby's shaking form.
Two steps
'Is all of this worth it?' Fingers twitched and Onyx felt adrenaline rushing through her veins as she was struck by clarity like a charging Ursa.
One last step.
'To hell with it.' Onyx thought, determination burning in her eyes. She was tired of hurting her sister.
Just as Ruby was about to step outside, a hand grabbed her arm and yanked her back, the wooden door slamming shut. Bloodshot silver eyes widened when her twin spun her around before rough lips crashed against hers.
For a second, Onyx was afraid that her brashness would have ruined everything. Her sister's lips were frozen and she felt the wet tracks of her tears brushing against her cheeks. Part of her was saddened when Ruby just stood there, lips unmoving as though she was kissing a statue. Still, she kept her lips pressed tightly against hers, savoring what would be the last time she'd get to touch her twin sister before Ruby snapped out of it and scream in disgust.
Onyx felt Ruby raising her hand and she braced herself a slap, shove or even a punch to the gut. What she didn't expect was for fingers to tangle into her white locks and for Ruby to return the kiss with vigor. This time, Onyx froze, thinking she was dreaming. Never in her dreams did she imagine kissing her sister in their dad's workshop at the dead of the night, right after an argument that almost broke them apart.
Taking a leap of faith, she kissed her sister with all her heart, her soul singing in relief as she held her sister for the first time after four long months. Nothing was the same after that.
Now here they were, crying on Onyx's bed right after their dad walked in on them having sex. Yang crossed the distance to her bed and she stiffened when she felt fingers brushing through her black and white tresses before arms wrapped around her from behind, ignoring her nudity.
"It'll be okay." Yang said in soothing voice, arms cradling her sister close. "I swear I won't let anything happen to you. Even if I have to pummel some sense into dad."
Onyx couldn't believe her ears and neither could Ruby because they both turned at her with tear stained eyes, shock and a hint of hope glistening within.
"Why?" The dark twin croaked.
"Family sticks together, no matter what." The blonde stated firmly, her voice so serious that it was almost foreign to hear coming from their kind and playful sister. "I don't care if you love each other that way, you'll always be my sisters. In fact, I'm happy for you two. I just wished dad could have taken this better." Yang ended with a disappointed sigh.
The twins were frozen for a moment, unable to comprehend how they ended up with the best sister ever in their lives. A sister who was willing to sacrifice herself and go against their own dad to fight for their happiness. A sister who took care of them when their mom died. A sister who was so caring and selfless that she would cuddle them in the middle of the night when they were having nightmares.
Both of them could clearly see the fire burning in her lilac eyes that shone with love, compassion and understanding.
What did they do to deserve her?
Eventually, Ruby shifted, stretching one arm out to wrap her blonde sister in an awkward hug, whispering 'thank you' and 'I love you' again and again. Onyx turned around and gave her a wet but genuine smile, truly touched by her sister's words. The dark twin leaned up and planted a gentle kiss on the blonde's cheek and Yang gave her a tender grin.
"Come on." The brawler coaxed, as she pulled away. "Let's get this over with."
The Xiao Long family were gathered in the dining table wearing their combat attire. Ruby and Onyx sat next to each other while Yang sat across the dark twin. Taiyang was sitting at the head of table, hands clasped together in front of him, his eyes still a flaming red as he glared at all three of them.
Onyx stared back defiantly, refusing to look away while Ruby looked at him with a hurt expression. Yang had no problem returning the glare and going as far as deploying Ember Celica. Their dad didn't even spare a glance at her, his focus trained on his twin daughters.
Taking a deep breath to collect his thoughts, he said in a quiet voice that didn't undermine the sheer anger and fury that boiled inside. "I cannot even begin to tell you how disappointed I am at the both of you."
They didn't say anything but Yang growled as her semblance activated, red eyes matching their dad's and burning with rage.
Again, Taiyang ignored her.
"Especially you Onyx. I expected better from you." Their dad continued, the disappointment clear in his voice. "You were supposed to be the responsible one and instead, you went and did... did." He was physically struggling to get the word out.
"Sex?" Yang finished coldly. The twins shot her a look of pure shock, surprised at the blonde's boldness.
Taiyang finally turned to look at the blonde brawler as his jaw clenched and his hands tightened, glowing red eyes boring into his daughter's fiery ones. The smell of smoke suddenly filled the air as Yang clenched her hands into fists.
"Don't push it." Taiyang growled coldly and Yang gritted her teeth, her hair starting to glow and the twins felt a touch of fear and dread, completely aware of the blonde's explosive temper. "You're in the same boat as your sisters so I suggest you keep your mouth shut."
Just like that, Yang's semblance died down and her face morphed into utter confusion. Ruby and Onyx shared a look of confusion as well, wondering what their dad was talking about. The twins were pretty sure that he didn't see Yang doing the deed with them. Just the thought of it made their faces turn green and they fought to keep their lunch in their stomachs.
"Bu-" Yang started.
"QUIET!" Taiyang roared, passing the limit of his patience as he slammed his palms on the table. Getting his scroll from his pocket, he placed it down in front of him and a small holograph screen lit up above it.
"I should have done this a long time ago." Their dad said, getting a grip on his temper, a hand brushing his hair roughly.
"What are you-?" Onyx finally spoke but the cold glare her father sent her shut her mouth with a snap. The three of them were confused with what he was going to show them. Clearly, he didn't look like he was going to call all the headmasters of the Hunter Academy, so what was he doing?
What made it even more weird was that despite the anger their father was clearly showing, they can see a hint of red in his cheeks. Almost like he was blushing.
Clearing his throat, he pulled out a metallic cylinder from his pocket and extended it into a pointer stick that professors usually use in class. That baffled them even further to the point that Yang's eyes shifted back to normal.
"Now" He started in a voice that he usually use in class, professional and serious. "When you reach a certain age, you'll notice some changes in your body."
This time, it was a miracle their eyes were still intact as all three of them looked at him with wide eyes that almost bulged out of their sockets. Comprehension finally dawned upon them and they were speechless for a second.
Only for a second.
Yang went first and she voiced the most intelligible thing she could say in this situation. "WHAT THE DUST!?"
"No questions until the end of the presentation." Taiyang snapped but the blush he wore deepened that it was almost hilarious to look at in this absurd situation.
Ruby ignored him and literally blurted out. "You're giving us the talk!?"
"One more and I'm going to confiscate all your weapons for a whole month." Their dad threatened, face set to a scowl but the blush he still wore ruined the gravity of his threat. It still shut them all up and once silence ensued, the blonde man pulled up a picture of a naked man and woman.
All three of them were struggling not to look away and a blush similar to their dad's filled their cheeks. Clearing his throat, he pointed at the man's body. "For men, they experience a growth of hair in their face, chest, amrpits and -"
SLAM
All three of them simultaneously slammed their head to the table, hoping to drown out the next word.
They were not spared by fate's cruelty.
"Penis." Taiyang finished and they groaned loudly, questioning why this was happening.
"Now for the women." Yang shot up at that and could only watch in despair as a stick pointed at the female figure's chest area. Ruby and Onyx just turned their head reluctantly, knowing this is going to be a really long talk. "A growth occurs around their chest, areolae, and hips." It was a miracle he managed to get those words out. Onyx was mumbling 'why' over and over again while Ruby was wondering if she could just trade her love of cookies to a freedom ticket from this dust awful, embarrassing and humiliating talk.
"The women may also experience hair growth around the area between their legs." All of them, including their dad, sighed in relief when he didn't say the word. "But it's not just changes in the body that occur when you reach puberty."
"Please don't." Onyx begged, literally swallowing her pride just so this madness could stop. The dark twin hardly begs unless it's for the sake of cookies or strawberries.
She was ignored as Taiyang gestured his stick to the genitals of the man and woman. "You will experience change in the emotional level so sometimes, when you're young and you feel like-" Taiyang paused, looking for the right word. "Exploring different possibilities then it's just your hormones acting up. You will feel urges that you've never felt before and it may seem strange at first."
'As if this isn't!' All of them echoed each others' thought. "And that's where you learn about the act of sexual intercourse."
Their dad folded his stick and sighed heavily, like he really didn't want to do this anymore than they wanted to listen to him talk. "Now, I've downloaded a video to give you a more... proper demonstration of sex."
He flicked his hand over the screen and the image disappeared, only to be replaced with a video entitled 'How Sex Works'.
This was going to be a really, really long talk.
After one long and agonizing hour of watching heterosexual and, for their consideration, homosexual intercourse, the video finally stopped. Video was putting it lightly, seeing as they just witnessed what should be considered porn in the extreme sense especially when there BDSM themes were included. All of them were wondering what their dad was thinking when he got this video.
Everyone on the table were red as a tomato, their faces buried in their arms. The Rose twins even even threw their hoods up to hide their embarrassment and Yang had her ears covered in a hopeless endeavor to block out the obscene noises that were coming from the video. Their respect for their dad grew as he was the only one who sat there, completely indifferent during the entire video except for the bright blush in his cheeks that betrayed his mortification.
Finally, Yang spoke, voice muffled against the table. "Why was I included?"
"Because, if I recall correctly, I ran into a girl wearing nothing but a shirt in the front door when I came back from my mission last week." Taiyang answered with his arms crossed. Ruby and Onyx choked, unsure whether to gasp in shock or laugh at their sister's expense. They settled for the latter and the blonde raised her head up and shot them glare that would have stopped even an Ursa on it's tracks.
"That doesn't mean we had sex."
"I'd believe that if it wasn't for the fact that she basically reeked of sex and kept blushing like a tomato when she saw me." Their dad retorted. "Plus, she mentioned your name and if I wasn't so tired from my last mission, I'd probably have give you the talk then."
Yang groaned pitifully, slamming her head back down. "I'm 16, dad. I already know this stuff."
"Think of it as payback for dropping the bomb on me." Taiyang smirked, reveling in his daughter's efforts to dig a hole through the table with her head. Turning to the twins, they straightened up in their seats, bracing for themselves for their fate. Onyx had her face schooled to a cold glare while Ruby thinned her lips, silver eyes staring at him defiantly. Whatever he decided, they would face with their head held high, even if it kills them inside.
"How long?" He asked, the red in his eyes turning back to lilac as he took a deep breath to calm his rattled nerves. "How long have you two been doing it?"
"2 months." The red cloaked huntress answered shortly, her twin nodding in confirmation.
Taiyang pursed his lips, taking another deep breath. "You know that you're only 15, right?"
"We know but we have no problems taking care of each other." Onyx stated coldly.
"I know." The blonde huntsman sighed heavily, suddenly looking like he aged a decade with his weary eyes and gruff voice.
The daughters were immediately reminded of their dad slumped over at this very table, pouring whiskey after whiskey as he sunk into depression, mourning for his departed wife.
Shaking his head, he continued. "I wasn't there when you needed me the most. I just moved around like a lifeless zombie for a whole year and I didn't even give a damn of how my daughters were doing. Not even a simple 'How are you?'" He spat in disgust, his eyes portraying his shame and anger but it wasn't directed at them. The three of them just sat silently, not knowing what to do. Their dad hardly talked about their mother anymore and the time she died. She was like the sun, always brightening the moods of everyone around her, especially the twins. When she died, it's like a storm replaced her sunny presence and dampened the lives of her family.
They were never the same after that.
"It took your Uncle Qrow to knock some sense to me and tell me that I needed to wake the fuck up. That I was neglecting my own daughters and that you needed me." Taiyang chuckled at that but there no humor in it. "If Summer was here, she'd be ashamed of me and what I've become: an ignorant father who wasted his life crying over the woman he loves while his children was doing dust knows what because HE WASN'T FUCKING THERE FOR THEM!" He roared angrily as he slammed his fist down the table. The wood splintered and cracked but they didn't flinch as his entire body shook. His eyes clenched shut as guilt rolled over him in waves. How could he abandon his precious daughters when they needed him?
Silence ensued as the blonde man berated himself for his past mistakes, so deep in his thoughts that he almost jumped when he felt something brush his hand.
Reaching down, Onyx gently placed her hand on their dad's closed one, pulling his fingers from their position before laying them on his palm. Lilac eyes opened and he stared at the small, delicate hand sitting on his own.
The dark twin brushed her thumb over his rough knuckles, her touch sweet and comforting.
Clasping her hand to his in a strong and firm grip, he looked up and stared at crimson eyes with resolve. "I'm not mad that you and Ruby are together. In fact, I'm happy that you have each other. That you'll look after one another including Yang." At the last part, he shot a meaningful look to his blonde daughter who gave him a faint smile.
Returning one with his own, Taiyang looked back and his smile widened when he saw the twins holding hands together and shooting each other a loving look. It painfully reminded him of his time with Summer, his precious Rose.
"I'm just more upset at the fact that you're already intimate with each other." Their dad sighed but suddenly his smile turned slightly mischievous. "But I guess that's my fault, these Xiao Long genes are known for being quite the beast in bed."
"DAD!" The precious moment was ruined and Yang slapped him in the arm as a blush immediately consumed all three of them once more. Now they were sure Yang inherited his wittiness and humor.
The blonde man yelped, feigning a hurt expression. "What? I was like that in your age. Fooling around and sharing a piece of this." He gestured his broad and strong physique and Onyx pushed his hand away in mock disgust. Ruby just blew him a raspberry.
"Seriously, dad?" The dark twin said with annoyance. The blonde man mistook it for a question and he shot them a devilish smirk that had a cold shiver climbing up their spines. Oh so many regrets were circling around their heads at that very moment
"Yeah. Let me tell you, it wasn't easy keeping both your mothers satisfied but it sure was one hell of a- OW!" Taiyang yelped as Yang smacked him upside the head with a fierce blush on her cheeks.
"I don't need to hear the dirty shit you do with both our moms!" Yang shrieked into his ear and the blonde huntsman tilted his head to the side from the verbal onslaught. "And you call Uncle Qrow the perverted one."
"HEY! At least I have some respect for women." Their dad said, looking offended at the mere thought of being compared to their drunken Uncle."I remember every girl I slept with since I was 16."
"Aha! See! Even you lost your v-card when you were 16." Yang accused while pointing her finger at him.
Taiyang just shrugged unapologetically.
"Eh. The Xiao Long genes can be a boon and a curse." Turning to the twins, he smirked that trademark Xiao long smirk. "And I remember your mother being quite the naughty little minx when she was-OW!"
This time Ruby used her semblance to appear on his side and both her and Yang smacked him from behind his head. The blonde man rubbed the abused spot and he pouted at his daughters.
Ruby crossed her arms and scowled heavily at him but the intensity was lost when a blush covered her cheeks. Seriously, they were wondering if it was possible to die from embarrassment. They were surprised they even lasted this long with the birds and bees. And now this? They've really outdone themselves.
"While we're touched that you've accepted us and all." Onyx started sincerely despite the dirty look she was sending him. "How can you just accept us that way?"
The dark cloaked huntress was really curious. Not that she wasn't thankful, in fact she was relieved and finding it hard to believe of how their dad just accepted them just like that. Shouldn't he be against this? Telling them that it was wrong for sisters to be together? This all so hard to believe and it was driving Onyx crazy as her mind raced a thousand miles per hour.
Taiyang just shrugged. "If I wasn't okay with it, I'd have thrown you off your sister and kicked you out of the house faster than you can say 'skeddadle' but I didn't. You are my daughters, and we're family. Family sticks together no matter what." He said in a strong, firm voice, echoing Yang's words when she swore that she'd protect him. The three of them stared at him in awe, amazed and touched at how understanding and caring their dad was. Even when morals were questioned, he'd put his own daughters first before that.
People would probably call them crazy, fucked up or screwed in the head but it didn't matter to the Rose twins because for them, their family was perfect.
"Oh and Summer and Raven treated each other like sisters but they were pretty close behind closed doors if you know what I mean." Taiyang grinned, wagging his eyebrows suggestively.
This time, three hands assaulted his abused head.
"Really smooth, Yang." Onyx said sarcastically. "Makes me wonder why I haven't give you detention right now."
"Because you love me unconditionally." Yang answered with a wink.
"Question mark on unconditionally." She turned to Ruby who had a question at the tip of her tongue.
"So do you know who's the TA you're gonna meet?" Ruby asked with curiosity peeking from her silver eyes.
The dark twin shrugged. "No idea. Professor Goodwitch said I'll know him when I see him."
Both of her sisters furrowed their brows at that but before they could question further, their attention was caught by the news on the holographic TV.
"-robbery was led by one of Vale's top criminals, Roman Torchwick, who was caught by the Hunter Association last night at 10:38 pm. The identity of the individual who apprehended this dangerous criminal remains unknown but we wish to thank them for keeping our city safe." The news reporter said as pictures of Roman Torchwick's mug shots were displayed in the screen. "Back to you Lisa."
The three teens drowned out the rest of the news as Onyx gave her twin a smile filled with pride, unabashedly showing how proud she was feeling right now to her baby sister.
Yang clapped Ruby at the back, wearing a proud grin. "Congrats, Rubes! We're so proud of you!"
Once again, Ruby found herself in a bear crushing hug but she didn't care, feeling a sense of pride and honor of upholding her parents' teachings. She felt her heart swell when Onyx stepped up and wrapped her around her, sandwiching the young teen in loving, though albeit painful(in Yang's case), hugs.
They broke away once they felt the rumble of the airship landing, signaling their arrival to Beacon Academy.
A boy with blonde hair and wearing white armor with a sword strapped to his side bumped into Yang, gagging and holding a hand to his mouth, his face a sickly green.
They watched with amusement as he literally ran out of the airship and proceeded to throw up in the near by waste bin.
"Shouldn't you be helping him." Ruby asked her twin.
Onyx snorted at that and gave her a critical look. "This is a warrior academy and independence is one of the few things you learn quickly if you want to finish this school with all your limbs intact."
"That's pretty cold, even for you." The blonde brawler remarked as they stepped out of the airship, having seen her sister even in her darkest moments. Onyx can be mistaken as the Grim Reaper with the way she ruthlessly cuts down her enemies without a drop of mercy, especially when her family was on the line. She shuddered for all the poor bastards that were brave enough to try and take a shot at her baby sister. She could only imagine the pain and torture that Onyx inflict on the people who thinks even for a second that they can take away her twin sister from her.
"I don't care about anyone except you two." The dark twin stated bluntly to which her sisters instantly 'awww'd at her. Unknown to the twins, Yang felt her forehead sweat, seeing as how that statement further proved her point.
Before she could say anything, their eyes wandered up to the majesty of Beacon Academy in all it's glory. The central towers were high, reaching past the clouds as they traced the contours of the school's campus. Everything about it screamed prestigious and elite and the compliments were well deserved seeing as how Beacon was ranked as number one among the the four Huntsmen Academies.
The three sisters were awed by the school's campus but two of them quickly darted at the weapons carried, eyes lighting up in delight like a kid in a candy store.
"Ohh! Sis, look at that battle axe! Oh, and that flaming sword! Is that a bladed whip? That's so cool! Hey, they even have a dust action shotgun! Oh my gosh, this is so amazing!" Ruby gushed all of that in one breath and Yang just stared at her hyperactive sister. She jolted out of her stupor when Ruby went to reach out a huge broadsword strapped behind a tall and broad student wearing green armor.
"Ow ow ow!" Ruby cried when she felt someone tugging her by the hood of her cloak. Yang turned to tell Onyx to keep an eye on her weapon-addicted twin only for her to slap herself on the face when saw that the dark twin was hypnotized by a broadsword strapped behind a really tall and quite possibly, one of the hottest looking guys she'd ever seen.
Onyx wasn't even looking at the guy's face as she drooled at the sight of his sword. It was huge sure but what made it stand out is that it's blade seemed to be made of crystals as it's color had a very light blue shade like the sky. It looked extremely durable, not to mention heavy but the guy carried it like it weighed next to nothing.
When he turned around, the dual scythe wielder looked up at him. Blue eyes met crimson as they traced up to his sharp cheekbones and down to his stubble and a well defined jaw. His brown hair was scruffy and a bit messy but it seemed to give him a roguish, badass look that reminded Onyx of her Uncle Qrow. . The guy was huge, literally towering over her and she can clearly see the muscles bulging from his arms, probably from wielding his masterpiece. He wore a blue shirt that said, 'Hugs are fun like friends.' with a picture of a dog and cat hugging printed on the center which seemed to be ridiculous to look at considering that the guy wearing it looked like a runway model. The shirt did little to hide his broad chest and his six pack abs. His shirt was tucked in black jeans with a chain as his belt. Topping the look off, he wore leather black rider boots and Onyx wondered where he got it.
"Hello." He greeted in a chipper and friendly voice that seemed to have a childish edge. "I'm Michael J. Caboose but my friends call me Caboose."
The giant man held his hand out and Onyx noticed the blue metal vambraces strapped on both his arms with knives sheathed around it. She stared at it for a while, then blushed when she realized he was waiting for a handshake.
"I'm Onyx Rose." She shook his hand firmly and Caboose gave her a friendly smile which she returned, albeit a bit strained, seeing as she was not used to meeting new people
"Nice to meet new people." He said off handedly. "I'm a ta here."
That confused Onyx for a moment. "Ta?"
"Yeah, ta. It's what the lady with these huge breasts called me." Caboose replied, not even showing a lick of interest or care when he mentioned the word 'breasts'. Normally, guys would act funny and get all pervy at the mention of boobs. Caboose apparently wasn't part of that statistic.
She bit the inside of her cheek to keep from laughing as Onyx understood what he meant and who he was referring to.
Meanwhile, Professor Goodwitch was writing some requests for Ozpin to take a look at for this semester when she felt the sudden urge to smack both f her TAs in the head. Wondering where that came from, she just shrugged and continued her work, keeping that little thought in mind.
"I think you mean TA." Onyx corrected.
This time Caboose wore a confused frown on his sexy face. "Yeah, don't you call it ta?"
"No, you literally just say the letters 'T' and 'A'." The dark twin explained patiently, while her mind wondered if there was a screw loose in his head.
"Oh, I get it, now!" He said with a face full of wonder and she couldn't help herself as Onyx laughed right there in the stony pathway, in front of her fellow TA. Caboose joined her laughter, although it was forced, and they both laughed for a while until the dark twin finally got a grip of herself, her mind reminding the talk she had with Professor Goodwitch and she snarked at herself on when she became a prude.
"Why were we laughing?" Caboose asked, clueless.
Shaking her head in mirth, she just gave him a smile and replied. "Why not?"
Apparently, that seemed to satisfy the broadsword-swinging giant as he leaned down and booped her nose with his finger.
Said nose wrinkled in mock anger as she swatted his finger away.
'He may be weird, but he seems like a really nice guy.' Onyx thought with a grin. 'Maybe this TA thing isn't going to be so bad.'
As if an unknown force came to spite her, she heard her twin sister hitting a stack of white suitcases off of a cart not from her position.
"What are you doing?" An angelic voice demanded.
While Onyx was chatting with what Ruby assumes was the TA she mentioned, she and Yang made her way down the path and admired the architecture of the school.
She'll admit that the guy was good looking but she knew her sister had no interest in men. Yes, she had abasolutely no reason to be jealous at all even though her twin was smiling and laughing like she was having the time of her life which was rare because she doesn't just like anybody. Nope, no jealousy even though she had the urge to stick Crescent Rose right up his-
"Oh, I see my friends." Yang said, as she waved at them, interrupting Ruby's malicious thoughts. Casting a quick look at her sister, she left with a hurried, 'bye' and sent the poor teen spinning like a top.
"Woah." Ruby mumbled dizzily, tiny beowolves running around her head as she stumbled on her feet. "Why can't you be this fast for chores?"
With that said, the dizziness won and she crashed right into a pile of white suitcases with an 'oof'.
"What are you doing?" A cold voice demanded and Ruby sat up rubbing her head and shaking the imaginary grimm of her sense of reality as she gazed upon what she could only describe as an angel sent from heaven.
Standing in front of her was a beautiful girl wearing a strapless white dress that faded to blue and stopped around mid thigh with a silver rapier strapped to her hip. She also wore a long sleeved bolera with the same shade as her dress from inside and was as red as her cloak from inside. Her eyes ran down those snow white legs and landed on the white booted heels. Silver eyes looked up and ice blue eyes glared coldly at her with the coldness of the bitter frost trapped within. Her white hair was tied up to a side ponytail which seemed to destroy the symmetry of her outfit but for her, it couldn't look more perfect on the girl. The ponytail was pinned by a tiara and her eyes settled on the jagged scar that ran down her left eye.
Pale blue eyes narrowed when she noticed the young girl staring at the scar on her eye, as if daring her to say anything untoward about it. For the cloaked huntress, all she could think about was how such imperfection made this girl even more perfect to her eyes.
A lot of things were running through Ruby's head right now but even she was shocked when her running mouth blurted out. "You're so pretty."
Weiss simply raised a brow at that, clearly unmoved by the compliment. All her life, she's been exposed to the countless compliments and praises by men and women when she was young but she knew that those people were after the power of her family. Everyone has a price and they're willing to slap a smile on their faces and worship the very ground she walks. Those people disgusted her and she learned how to deal with those mindless, greedy fanatics with cold precision.
Now, she can feel her irritation boiling at this klutzy redhead who knocked down her dust cases. She's been taught to act with propriety but something about this red cloaked teen just pushed her temper to a whole new level. Maybe it was because she just finished a 'talk' with her Father informing how she was wasting his time and resources by letting her study in Beacon and that she shouldn't give him another reason to be disappointed on her. The conversation ended with her Father demanding she send him weekly reports of her progress and that he'd expect nothing less than perfection like he always does.
Just the thought of her 'conversation' with her Father 20 minutes ago just spiked up her anger to another level and she unleashed it on her nearest victim, which happened to be Ruby.
"Are you deaf? I asked you what you're doing?" The heiress asked coldly, glaring at Ruby.
"Uhh." Was the only thing Ruby could utter at the moment as she sat there on the ground in front of the heiress. Her mind was completely blank except for the hot and fuming girl in front of her. Even when she's mad, she looked sexy with her sharp blue eyes glaring daggers at her and her lips twisted to a fierce scowl.
SLAP
"Didn't anyone tell you its rude not to stare?" Weiss snarked, secretly trying not to rub her throbbing hand. The heiress wondered if the girl was made of steel.
Curse Aura protection.
Ruby didn't even flinch or even jerk from the impact, too stunned to do anything but admire the goddess in front of her.
"Okay, I've seen enough." A familiar husky voice drawled from behind the cloaked huntress.
"Ruby, they're having a sale in Sinful Desserts right now." Onyx said and that snapped her twin out of Weiss Wonderland as she blurred right in front of her twin with an excited gleam on her face. "Really? Do you think we can buy a dozen cookies and some strawberry short cakes. Oh, maybe we can try some of their caramel fudge cakes. I hear they-mpphhhh mphh"
Her twin just covered her mouth with her hand but the energetic redhead just kept talking. The dark twin shot Weiss an apologetic look as the heiress huffed with her arms crossed. "Sorry about my sister. She rarely gets like this unless its cookies, strawberries or weapons."
Crimson eyes scanned her up and down and she froze as she properly looked at the beautiful woman standing before her. Thankfully, she had better sense of control than her twin and sent her a smile. "Sorry about your luggage."
She gestured the strewn cases on the ground and off their cart but a second later, rose petals fell around them as Ruby dashed around and picked up all the suit cases and stacked them neatly on the cart before hopping on her twin's back, who didn't even so much as move an inch, wrapping her legs around her waist and hiding behind her twin's hood. All of this happened in precisely a second.
"You'll learn to get use to it." Onyx commented when she spotted the wide eyed look the shorter girl was shooting at her sister. She was already wearing heels but both of them were like an inch taller than the heiress. Although, it suited the white haired girl, especially when she spied the pale white legs from under her combat skirt.
'Nope, bad thoughts.' Onyx chided herself and she turned her head slightly to address Ruby. That and because she was sure her eyes were smoldering with emotions that may scare off the heiress.
"Ruby, apologize."
Onyx's eye twitched when her sister flicked her on the forehead.
"I'm not a five year old, Nyx." her twin pouted before she looked at the heiress who was waiting impatiently for the redhead to talk.
"I'm sorry." Ruby said meekly, while peeking over her twin's shoulder. Crimson and silver eyes looked at the heiress who was struggling not to melt at the adorable sight. Nobody stands a chance against the Rose twins lethal weapon of cuteness
"It's fine." The heiress said slowly, trying not to crack her demeanor in front of them. A Schnee never cracks, they never show weakness even in the front of their cunning and ruthless enemies.
"Oh, how rude of me. I'm Onyx Rose and this is my twin sister, Ruby Rose." Onyx introduce with a flourish of her hand. Ruby shot the heiress a friendly wave which Weiss promptly ignored and slipped her cold mask back on. Why was she still here, talking to these two? The answer seemed to elude her when really, a part of her, a tiny tiny part of her, was secretly enjoying the company of the Rose twins.
"And you are?" Ruby asked the heiress.
At that, Weiss was shocked once again. Not to make herself sound cocky, but these two have no idea who she is? She looked carefully in her eyes and she didn't see an ounce of recognition on their faces. The Rose twins waited patiently but it was bordering on awkward as the Schnee heiress continued looking at them like they were crazy. Well, they had their moments but the twins were pretty sure that Ruby asked who she was, not do a strip tease right in front of them.
"Are we playing the staring game?" A deep curious voice asked and all of them and all of them snapped out of their locked gazes and turned to look up at Caboose who was munching on a bar of chocolate.
The tall TA gasped. "Alice! There's two of you!" He yelled in surprise and pointed at her twin sister hanging on her back, eyes wide in surprise.
"It's Onyx, Caboose." The dark twin sighed, quickly adjusting to the tall, hot man's quirkiness. "And this is my twin sister, Ruby."
"Yo." Ruby greeted.
"Ohhhh. Gee, I thought she was-um..ah a clone or something and that there were two of you." Caboose said, tripping in his own words. Onyx briefly wondered how he became a TA at this prestigious academy. Blue eyes darted to the heiress who was glowering at him. "Who's this? And why does she look mad?"
"I'm Weiss Schnee. And who are you?" Weiss snapped rudely, ignoring his last question
"I'm Michael J. Caboose but my friends call me Caboose." He replied with a lopsided grin. "I'm a T-A."
"A TA? I didn't hear anything about a TA in Beacon. Why didn't I hear anything about this?" The heiress demanded.
"Oh, uh, I don't know. Was I suppose to tell you?" Caboose was seriously asking the heiress, no hint of sarcasm whatsoever. "I don't tell strangers what I do. Tucker said that strangers can be mean."
Onyx shook her head at him. "Ignore her, Caboose."
The dark twin turned to the fuming heiress. "What my colleague is trying to say is that we've been recently invited to assist in teaching students combat training by the Headmaster himself."
"What!?" The heiress shrieked, not believing the fact that this girl is supposed to be one of her teachers in this school for four years. "Aren't you a little too young to be teaching, let alone be studying in this school?" Weiss said haughtily, but she felt like slapping herself in the face of how spoiled and slightly desperate it made her sound like. Contrary to what people believe, she wasn't unaware of how much of an Ice Queen she can be.
"I'll let that insult slide, Ms. Schnee." Onyx brooked in a cold voice that would impress even her father, her tone adopting a more professional demeanor. The dark cloaked twin was not liking how high and mighty this girl was acting. It's time she put her down a peg. "However, if you keep this up, then you'll be the first student in Beacon to earn detention right even before Initiation starts."
'Shut up, Weiss.' She yelled in her head but her mouth refused to listen.
"How dare you-"
"Let me remind you that I'm a TA and Professor Goodwitch has given me the right to punish any student within reason." Onyx leaned forward with a menacing look on her face and Ruby fidgeted nervously on her back, debating if she should interrupt them. "And let me tell you that I chose to give detentions instead of public humiliations in the arena but I'm sorely tempted of reverting to that punishment right now if you keep pushing it."
"Like you could best me in a duel." Weiss scoffed, as if the mere thought was an impossible feat. She was very confident in her skills, after being trained by the best combat instructors that Atlas could offer. The heiress tried to listen to the tiny shimmer of niceness that dwell deep inside of her but when someone was clearly challenging then, then the nice gloves were off.
The air suddenly shifted and Weiss found the crimson eyed twin standing an inch away from her, red eyes staring right into her soul.
"Wow! That was really, really cool." The big huntsman said in awe, and Ruby wondered how he wasn't aware of the suffocating tension right in front of him. "Are you a magician?"
Onyx and Weiss ignored him, not breaking their focus on each other.
"If we were in a fight right now, you would have been dead." Onyx said lowly, her voice husky with a dangerous undertone that sent a shiver of fear coursing through the heiress' spine but Weiss refused to back down. A Schnee never backs down, they stay strong in the face of danger even when the odds were against them.
"So congratulations, Ms. Schnee. You just earned yourself detention."
"WHAT!?" The shriek was enough to rattle the dark twin's ears but she kept her face devoid of any emotion.
"What's happening?" Caboose asked innocently as he bit off a square from his chocolate bar.
"Let that be a lesson to you." Onyx continued smoothly. "Never judge a book by its cover."
"But Weiss is not a book." The blue eyed huntsman pointed out, clueless of the tension and atmosphere that was playing right in front of him. "Unless her face is in a book and everything it says in it is not about her."
Onyx sighed deeply through her noise and closed her eyes briefly, feeling a migraine coming along. "It's an expression, Caboose."
Ruby slapped her forehead in exasperation, seriously wondering how clueless this guy can get.
"Oh." The serious moment was ruined and the heiress threw one last baleful glare at the twins before storming off. That was probably the smartest move she's done in Ruby's opinion. Ruby thought that it was the smartest thing to do because she can feel Mt. Onyx about to erupt like Mt. Yang. The red cloaked huntress wondered how her twin ended up loosing her cool, she's usually the level-headed one, Yang was the punch-people-ask-questions-later-then-punch-them-again one and she was the cute one.
"Onyx, you're being unreasonable." Ruby said firmly.
Onyx shrugged. "Eh, that's your opinion."
The dark twin reverted back to her normal self in a blink of an eye. "She was getting on my nerves."
"Yeah, she was mean." Caboose nodded in agreement "But you were being mean too."
"Again, that's your opinion."
"Caboose is right, Onyx. Sure she wasn't exactly being friendly."
"Understatement, but go on." Onyx inputted.
"But that doesn't mean you should give her detention because of her snippy attitude"
"Please listen to yourself when you say that." Onyx said. "Really listen to yourself."
"What I'm trying to say is that you're not usually like this." Her twin said, her face morphing into a worried expression.
"Yeah, my best friend wouldn't be mean even if people were being mean." Caboose added, chipping off another square.
"Caboose we're not- I don't...This isn't." The dark cloaked stumbled in her own words before she sighed in defeat. Trying to make sense with Caboose is like trying to let a blind person read a book. Loosing her cool and her words? Not a great day for the dark cloaked TA.
"Fine, I'll tell you about this later, Ruby." Onyx promised but her twin just shot her a doubtful look.
"Are we really going to talk or are we going to 'the talk'?" Ruby asked bluntly, not even caring about their audience. If she thought she'd catch her twin off-guard, she was so wrong.
"Maybe." Onyx's voice dropping in that seductive, velvety voice. "But I'm sure we could do both."
Her hand brushed her twin's thigh suggestively, and her twin shivered, silver eyes darkening.
"What's the talk and 'the talk'?" Caboose asked in that innocent and clueless voice of him and the twins stared at him like he grew a second head.
"Caboose."
"Minx." He grinned toothily.
"Onyx." The dark cloaked twin corrected again..
"There are some things you shouldn't know." Onyx explained slowly and clearly as if she was talking to a child, which in this case, seemed like it.
"Okay."
"This is one of them." Ruby chirped.
"Okay. Chocolate?" The huntsman finally offered his half finished chocolate bar.
Before the dark cloaked huntress can even utter a syllable, Ruby snatched it from his hand and devoured the rest.
"And you call me insatiable." Onyx remarked with a chuckle.
"Shut up."
So, yeah. I just introduced Caboose from Red vs Blue as well as our favorite Ice Princess. Thanks for liking, reviewing, and favorite-ing. I'll post a new chapter by next week.
