Chapter 2: Fall
Ruby Rose looked up at the grandeur of the prestigious academy before her. She admired the glorious white arches surrounding the courtyard. The tower soared into the sky, its green lights glowing like a second sun. She stepped forward, admiring the beauty of the architecture. Suddenly, her vision went blue.
Ruby couldn't see anything but that bright cerulean for a couple seconds before she realized it was a blue circular wall that had opened up in front of her.
"Yang?" she shouted at her sister.
"What's up Rubes?" Yang said from the other side of the courtyard.
Then Yang saw the blue mass.
"Oh."
Ruby reached out, cautiously tapping the wall. Her finger slid right through. She tried to pull it out, but it was stuck. She pulled again, but it only made the wall swallow up more of her arm. Suddenly, there was a forceful tugging from inside the wall, and Ruby flew headfirst into the circle.
"Ruby!" Yang shouted, sprinting over to where her sister just was. She slammed Ember Celica into the wall, but instead of dragging her in too, it just shattered.
"Ruby," she whispered.
"RUBY!" She shouted, pounding the ground, creating a crater.
Ruby was falling. She felt uncomfortable, as if something was lightly squeezing her. She reached for Crescent Rose only to find that she had left her scythe in her locker. She sighed and looked down at her feet. They were different. They reminded her of the feet of a Nevermore, except her feet were blue only had two toes. After some examination, Ruby also realized they were metal.
Then, she realized that her whole body was metal. Her arms were ridged, giving them a springy, frilled look. Her hands had three fingers, and her body had a hole through the upper torso.
Is that even possible? She thought. She was still breathing, so she decided it was.
Looking down, she saw an island. It had a large volcano in the center, with a large patch of green to the south and to the east. The southern part of the green patch was covered in rivers, giving it a shattered appearance. To the northwest of the volcano there was a large land of ice, and to the north a desert plain. Sandwiched between the desert and the green patch lay a lake.
Ruby realized she was headed straight for the lake.
A/N - Sorry about the Kanohi name mix up in the last chapter. It has now been fixed. I will probably be posting very often, with very short chapters. I figured that I should clarify some of the terms I used, for those who don't know.
Vahi: The mask of Time
Olmak: The mask of dimensions
Ember Celica: Yang's shot gloves
Crescent Rose: Ruby's Scythe
