This may be the last chapter that I'm writing before going on a hiatus. The reason is because my family and I are going on vacation and since I don't have a laptop, I won't be able to type. I have Google Drive which there is an app for on my IPhone, but I need MS Word to correct it, plus it's hard to publish a chapter on there so… yeah. Anyways, here is Chapter 13…

Ruby

"Hey! Wake up!" Someone shouted. It was a voice that belonged to a female but it sounded distant.

"W-what's going on?" I asked softly in a tired voice.

"Don't worry Ruby; there is nothing to be worried about." I opened my eyes but the world was still a blur. The only colors that were there were black and red.

"Who are you?"

"That's nothing to worry over." I felt something cold touching my wrists so I tried to move them, but I felt a sense of restriction. Slowly, the world around me began to focus until I can see everything. I was lying down on a table, chains wrapped around me. In front of me, the red blur was focused into clear view… the person was Cinder Fall. A sense of panic filled me and I struggled to loosen the chains but they wouldn't budge. "You can see me now, good… if you don't want to be harmed; I suggest you switch to your other form."

How did she know? I lied. "I don't know what you're talking about, what do you mean by-"

I felt an intense burning sensation on my leg. "Don't play games with me! You know what I'm talking about so do it now or I will get you where it hurts most." She took out a scroll and showed me a live camera feed in what I think was her hideout. Yang and Weiss were there, but the white-haired girl was seriously injured and Yang clutched her to her chest. Surrounding them were armed guards, human guards at that, none that were faunus from the White Fang. "Why don't you point your weapons at them?" Cinder said through the scroll, and all of them aimed at them.

Yang looked around and turned her attention back to Weiss. "Don't do it Ruby." Yang said.

"But you'll die!" I exclaimed. "I'm not going to lose you sis!" I concentrated for a few seconds, then I felt myself transform into a creature of darkness.

"Good, stand down." she said, then the guards lowered their guns. "I suppose you know what this is about, am I correct?" I guess she had found the manipulative dust.

"Just get it over with." I said in defeat and sighed. She pulled out a needle filled with the black dust and injected it into my neck. Pain began to fill me and I was trembling violently. "W-what's happening?!" I shouted despite the pain.

"Just relax, it'll end soon." She said in a calm voice, but the pain only intensified.

I began to scream in agony, the corner of my sight was fading to black and it only spread. Am I going to black out? I thought. The pain was beginning to go away but I felt something strange… something new. I felt like I was a puppet, being controlled… that's how it feels to be manipulated by someone and dust right? Everything around me was dim, like someone had not paid the electric bill and I couldn't feel anything in my body, I couldn't lift a finger. I tried to speak but it was like my lips were sealed shut. What's happening to me?! I screamed in my head.

Cinder removed the chains and told me to get up. I did what I was told and got up. "I hope you know that you're mine now right?" I wanted to shake my head but instead I nodded in confirmation. "It did work… this is going to be a great time for me." You're free from the chains Ruby, why can't you just move, you can snap out of her control!?

A guard ran in and got Cinder's attention. "The supply of that weird dust is here."

She smirked and turned to look at me. "Why don't you follow me?" She walked out the room and I had no choice but to give into her demands.

"I want you to look at what you have helped to make… then when all of it begins, you will watch your friends and everything you know crumble." Cinder said in a vilified voice and pulled out a vial of dust. She got an Ursa's attention, it growled and began running towards us, then she threw the vial and it shattered against its face. The dust flew around it in a circle; the confused Grimm sniffed it and a bit of it entered its snout. It took a step back and roared as loud as it could. "Now, look at me!" Cinder shouted to the Ursa, it turned back and glared at her. "Good, now… I want you to sniff out the girl that this hair belongs to."

She pulled out a small strand of white hair. Oh no, it's Weiss's hair. I thought in worry. The Ursa leaned in to smell it, and then it took off in less than a second. "Time to draw some attention." She glared at me. "I want you to roar as loud as you can… the Ursa didn't call out to the other creatures so I need you to do that." I took a deep breath, and then I roared vigorously. I can hear birds flying away and rustling in the trees near us. "It's time, to end the existence of humanity!" Cinder exclaimed and laughed evilly. There was Grimm everywhere, maybe hundreds… Ursa, Deathstalkers, Beowolves, and even a couple of Nevermores' were here. What… have I done? I thought to myself. I could only watch as Cinder released the manipulative dust, a huge cloud surrounded the whole area. Then all I could hear were growls and roars. "Attack those that despise you, and make sure you give them all the pain they've given you!" A huge roar was heard, then a lot of them went in the direction of Beacon Academy.

Then Cinder turned towards me. "I want you to go bring that faunus you love so much back here." No… please don't make me hurt her. I gave her a nod and ran in the direction where she is… I can't move myself freely but I guess I know where I am going. Only one thought struck me. What is she going to make me do to Blake?

So there it is. Sorry if it isn't that great, I'm going on hiatus starting on June 23rd and I might be gone for a whole week. If I can type a chapter, then I will do it. As always, leave a review and I'll see you guys later…
