The Rose Sisters

Disclaimer: I do not own RWBY. If I did, one it wouldn't be nearly as awesome, and two I wouldn't be in High School. I'd be in my secluded mansion where I don't have to worry about living breathing people annoying me unless I choose to (which I doubt I would). So no suing the guy who has 5 dimes, 3 nickels, 2 penny's, a quarter, and the lint in his pocket.

Chapter 3 New Friends Old Memories

-By A Fountain Somewhere-

Book Girl: I should have known that it wasn't that easy to make a friend. What was I thinking?! Go up to someone, hope they will start a conversation? Then what? We miraculously become friends? It's never that easy, especially for a Faunus.

Ruby: (appears out of nowhere hanging upside down from a tree) Tell me about it. Being a Faunus is hard when no one accepts you for who you are.

Book Girl: Wha-! Where did-!? How much did you hear? Wait, did you-?

Ruby: Hi! The tree. Especially for a Faunus. And yes, I did say that. Any more partial questions you want to ask me?

Book Girl: Uumm.

Ruby: Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. (flips off of the tree and makes a perfect landing) Wanna be friends?

Book Girl: Um. Sure.

Ruby: Great! I'm Ruby, what's your name?

Book Girl: Blake.

Ruby: Nice to meet you Blake. (looks around to make sure no one can hear them) You know, I couldn't help but notice how you walk.

Blake: What do you mean?

Ruby: I mean, you don't walk like others do. While other people at this school walk normally, you walk like you have experience under your belt. (in a lower voice) I can tell you used to be a member of the White Fang... and that you are a Faunus in the Feline category, I'd say cat.

Blake: How did you-?

Ruby: Don't worry. I have this... ability, where I can see things about people by just looking at them. Also I'm like you.

Blake: What do you mean you're-? (Blake's eyes widen when she sees cat ears pop up out of Ruby's hair and a cat tail appear from under her skirt... *ahem* battle skirt that have the same color hair on them as Ruby's red hair and the red on her clothes)

Ruby: Even Yang, who I think of as a sister doesn't know that I'm a Faunus.

Blake: It must be hard lying all the time to someone you think of as a sister.

Ruby: Well... it's not a total lie. You see, I'm only half Faunus, the other half of me is human. (contracts a sudden case of shyness and looks down)

Blake: What do you mean by your only half Faunus?

Ruby: My Father is human, but my Mother is a Faunus. Though I never got to meet her.

Blake: I see. I'm sorry.

Ruby: It's ok. I know she's watching over me.

Blake: I'm sorry to hear that.

Ruby: (confusion written across her face) Huh? (eyes widen) Oh, she's not dead, it just isn't safe for us to meet.

Blake: Oh, sorry, the way you sounded I thought…

Ruby: Don't be sorry. You didn't know. I don't get to talk about my parents because they are well known.

Blake: Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I promise.

Ruby: Cat Sister Promise? (1)

Blake: (eyes wide with a huge smile appearing on her face) Cat Sister Promise.

Ruby: Thank You! (jumps to jug Blake but topples them both over)

Ruby and Blake giggling on the ground.

Blake: We should get going. The Headmaster is going to make his speech soon.

Ruby: Ok. Umm… how do we get there?

Blake: (eyes widening) I… don't… know.

A Cat Sister Promise is where one FEMALE Cat-Type Faunus makes another FEMALE Cat-Type Faunus promise something. This is a sign of DEEP trust. If agreed to then the two become sort of like tribe sisters. It is the ultimate type of promise one can make. It is said that this promise is so strong that it can shatter hearts if it is broken.
