WARNING: This Fanfic is about Ruby Rose getting Isekaied to the world of AKAME GA KILL after death. And Also, Ruby will be older, Much more experienced, and MUCH more violent and darker than the canon version, to the point of her redemption being...hard to guess.
In short, Ruby will be somewhat OOC, and will also have...a Harem of her own.
I don't care, I'm just weird And I ain't ashamed of it.
Now please, Enjoy the first chapter!
*Drip...Drip...Drip...*
...She could hear her blood slowly dripping on the ground from her wound.
She applied more pressure on the gaping hole in her left rib cage, even tho she knew it was useless.
But that wasn't all. She also had a burned and charred left shoulder, a bleeding right leg, a cut on her forehead that forced her right eye to close, a claw mark on her back, and several cuts around her arms, legs, belly and one across her chest.
She kept walking while using her Scythe as a crutch, until she finally fell on the barren Grimm-lands soil. She then turned herself around to face upwards, staring at the shattered moon.
'...At least...it's all finally over...' She thought to herself, feeling her mind and her sight becoming a blur.
'...I just wish...we didn't have...no, I didn't have to destroy the relics...oh well...it's better if the gods just stay away from remnant after all the damage they caused in the first place...'
She didn't care about her situation...she just didn't care about anything ever since she and her friends somehow left the everafter.
All she wished for now was peace...
...But she doubted she'd have peace after all she has done.
For example: After leaving the Everafter, she shot and sliced off Neopolitans legs with her scythe. She could see the pain and suffering she had caused her...and instead of putting the Icecream themed girl out of her torture, she just left her to be slaughtered by a horde of Beowolves, slowly and painfully.
...And the screwed up part is...Neo was trying to Apologize...to ask for forgiveness after realizing her revenge was meaningless. But Ruby didn't care at all...She actually enjoyed watching Her suffer.
Then...She remember the way she cut off Mercury Blacks arms off and breaking his legs, leaving the boy a literal limbless meat sack. And leaving him to bleed out all by himself. She suspected that he was definitely dead.
But worst of all...she lied to her team about Neo and Mercury. She told them that a Beowolf attacked Neo and bit into her throat from behind when they returned to Remnant, and she said that Mercury accidentally blew himself up to cover up how terrible she left them to their fates.
But it didn't stop there, she did not show any mercy or empathy to her enemies, either torturing them or leaving them to die a painful and agonizing death,
With all of that...she doubted she'd go to where her Team, Friends and Family were.
'...It doesn't matter...Salem is a pile of dust now...Cinder is has probably choked on her own blood and is dead after the bullet I left in her throat...and besides if she survived that she won't make it out alive after I jabbed my thumb into her good eye...' She thought to herself
'...I wonder how is Professor Goodwitch handling the recreation of Vale right now...I just hope I could see it once...Oh wait...I just remembered, Ren finally proposed to Nora right? And Emerald...She's rebuilding the Orphanege she build after Cinder burned it down by now if I remember right. Man I sure am glad I ditched them to fight alone...They deserve to be happy...' She chuckled at her own twisted way of seeing this, until she coughed some blood out...
...Her vision was becoming blurry, her mind was a daze...her heartbeat was becoming faint...
'...This is it for me then...' She thought
'...Weiss...Blake...Yang...Uncle Qrow...Jaune...Pyhrra...Penny...Mom...Dad...And...Raven too I guess...I just hope...I can see you all again if I'm coming to where you all are...'
...And thus, Ends the life of Ruby Rose, The bravest Huntress of all and savior of Remnant...

...Or so it was meant to be.
"...Hmm...Eh?" Ruby opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was the stars and the night sky.
"...I'm...alive?"
She stood up from the dirt, and realized that her wounds...were all gone. And not just her wounds, her clothes and Cape were all fixed up too while they were all torn up last she remembered.
"What happened? And...Where am I?" She looked around herself, and realized she was in the middle of a forest.
the Green trees and the grass around her all felt fresh and lively
"...Is this...Emerald forest? How did I eve get here?"
Trying to see the Area from a higher ground, she dashed up the tallest tree she could find and looked out into the horizons
"...Yup, Definitely not Emerald Forest. If it was then the Trees would be much bigger."
And then she looked up again, and finally saw the Moon.
...And the moon...wasn't shattered and in pieces anymore...WHAT?!
"WHAT?!" She gasped, almost falling from the Tree branch she was standing on.
She stares at the moon in shock, absolutely stunned at how it looked now
"The moon...It's fixed? How?!"
She was left with a mountain of questions. Where was she? How could the moon be suddenly fixed like this? was this the afterlife? Another world like the everafter? How was she even here? The questions just kept piling up in her head.
"I...Am I dead?" she asked herself.
"Is this hell? W-Wait no Hell wouldn't look like...well THIS. Am I...Reincarnated then?...I don't know if I should feel blessed, or cursed."
She decided to jump down from the tree and just walk around a bit.
But she gasped, remembering her Weapon Cresent Rose. She glanced back, Realizing that her beloved weapon was still strapped on the back of her belt. She sighed in relief, Knowing she wasn't without a weapon to at least Protect herself.
She walked for a few minutes through the forest, while nighttime continued on.
"...If I'm...Really Reincarnated...then...WHERE am I? O-Or WHEN am I?...Is this...Even Remnant?" She asked herself.
"Uuuugh I already feel sick thinking about it. for Now I should Probably...find Civilization I guess. If any exists."
And so, Ruby Rose begins a new adventure through a new, Darker World.
'...I've been walking around this dence forest for 4 days now...' Ruby thought to herself
'...And I still haven't found, A SINGLE HUMAN BEING TO TALK TOO!'
to say she was frustrated was an obvious understatement. She has been lost for 4 days straight, without any contact with a normal human being.
What she was in contact however, were hordes of straight monsters she had never seen in her life!
'Those monsters looked like fantasy monsters in a video game. And no matter how much I looked, I couldn't find even ONE creature of Grimm.' She thought to herself.
'This settles it then, I really AM in another world. but the question is if there is any kind of government or kingdom in charge.' She kept thinking to herself, Wondering if this new world had a Military similar to Atlas.
'Never mind all of that, I need to find civilization or I won't last much longer if I keep eating forest fruits and berries, or those monsters raw meat.' She thought and made a "Blegh" Sound.
'I wish I could find a source of fire to at least cook them first. And the fact that I'm ALL out of Ammo really just adds more to my suffering. What more could possibly come my way?'
*CRASH*
*ROAAAAAR*
"Wh-what was THAT?!" she gasped at the sound of an ungodly roar far off ahead.
Using her semblance, She burst through the forest and jumped on a tree, and saw a VERY giant insect like Monster attacking two travelers!
'They're in danger!' Ruby thought to herself, right before she pulled out her crescent rose and unfold it.
Using her semblance again, she dashed right up to the creatures head!
She could tell the monster was somewhat shocked to suddenly see her appear there right out of nowhere.
But the Monsters shock didn't last long,
*SWING!*
*SPLAT!*
Because of Crescent roses Blade making contact with the monsters neck, Cutting it's head clean off!
Ruby Landed back down on the ground, folding her Scythe back on her belt.
"Phew..." She sighed, Glad she made it in time.
"Hoooooooooly crap..."
She then looked back, and saw the Travelers she saw looking at her in absolute shock.
'...wait?' She then noticed something else. The two mens clothes...seemed...very old and almost medieval like.
'Is Clothing different here from Remnant?'
"Y-You just...Sliced that things head clean off..." One of the travelers stated, still in shock.
"um...Yes I did?" Ruby answered, unsure of why they were so Surprised by this.
'So...Is killing monsters like these ones in one Attack an impossible thing then?' she thought to herself.
"Th-That was_" one of the Travelers tried to speak, but then suddenly!
"THAT WAS AMAZING!"
"Eh?!" Ruby gasped as a Kid with messy Brown and Green eyes suddenly appeared right in front of her, With stars in his eyes out of excitement and maybe even admiration.
"Wait, how long have you been here?"
"Oh, Well, I just arrived now actually." The boy answered and stepped back a bit.
Now getting a good look at the him, Ruby noticed that he might be a year or two Younger than her.
"I was actually about to just jump in and kill that Earth Dragon, but then you suddenly just showed up and Swish! it died right away! how'd you even do that? it was AWESOME!"
"O-Oh. well you know, I have had experience with...Wait, Earth dragon?" Ruby repeated.
"Yeah...The Danger beast you just killed?" The boy answered.
"...Danger Beast?" Ruby repeated again, and the Travelers and the boy just stared at her like she just said something weird.
"...Um...W-Wait wait wait hang on a second...so you call The monsters around here, 'Danger Beasts'?"
"Ye-Yeah. That's...what their always called." The boy answered
'Oh boy, their getting weirded out by me. Come on ruby just Lie!' she thought to herself.
"Oh! Well, sorry about that. It's just...I'm not really from around here." Ruby explained.
"Wait really?" The boy asked.
"Then are you perhaps a Foreigner?" one of the Travelers asked next.
"Yes! exactly! From where I come from...w-Well we have different kind of monsters roaming around." Ruby explained.
"And they weren't called Danger beasts either so, Yeah. There you have it."
"Oh. Why didn't you just say so in the first place then?" The boy laughed it off, Giving Ruby a sense of Relief that they believed her.
"Anyway. My names Tatsumi! what's yours?"
'...That...Sounds like a Mistralian Name.' Ruby thought to herself, Noting that Tatsumi also looked like someone who could be from Mistral and Haven.
"Nice to meet ya. I'm Ruby, Ruby Rose."
and after the introductions, The two travelers Offered to Give Ruby and Tatsumi a ride to the capital.
seeing that they knew were to find civilization, Ruby accepted their offer without hesitation.
"Come Ooooon! PLEASE tell me how you did That!" Tatsumi begged Ruby again, Very curious to know how she killed the Earth dragon from before.
"Sorry. My little Secret~" Ruby playfully teased.
"You used a weapon right? Is it concealed or something?" Tatsumi asked.
"NoPe. not saying~" Ruby teased, Popping the P in her 'Nope'.
"So...Are you two sure you wanna go to the Capital?" One of the Travelers asked.
"Honestly, It's better than Walking around Totally Aimless and lost in the woods for 4 days straight." Ruby answered
"Seriously, I had to eat Fruits, berrys and Raw Mons- I mean, Danger beast meat. It was Disgusting."
"W-wow you really did?" Tatsumi asked while the Travelers looked a little pale by the fact that she ate Raw Danger beast meat.
"I couldn't find a source of fire to cook them okay?" Ruby said.
"but enough about that, Why are YOU going to the capital Tatsumi?"
"Well, I'm gonna make a name for myself there!"
Ruby Just chuckled at how determined He sounded. but Right after, She noticed that the Travelers...looked a little tensed by His answer.
"You...want to join the Army then?" One of the Travelers asked.
"Yup! My village needs money, So It's really the best way We can manage for now." Tatsumi answered.
"Actually, Two of my friends should be there by now. We had to split up in our travel so I guess I'll see them there when I arrive there."
"...The capital Isn't all dreamy as you think kid. It's got monsters worst that That Earth dragon from before." One of them explained.
'...What are they trying to tell us?' Ruby mentally asked herself.
After arriving at the Capital, Ruby and Tatsumi got off the carriage And walked through the gates.
"Wow! look at this place!" Tatsumi said in excitement.
"Yeah, It looks...Really nice." Ruby said.
'And Underdeveloped compered to Remnant. This world is lacking a lot of Technology advances compared to mine.'
"Well, I guess That's it then." Ruby said to Tatsumi
"You better go find your friends. I'll...look around for a job or something."
"Oh. Alright then." Tatsumi said and walked on, While waving Ruby off
"Let's meet again sometime!"
"Sure thing!" Ruby said, Waving Him off too.
'He seemed really nice...Like a Much more confident version of Jaune when I met him back in beacon.'
"Miss rose?"
ruby looked back and saw one of the Travelers holding out a small bag filled with something for her.
"Please accept this. A token of our gratitude for saving our lives."
"okay?" Ruby took the Bag and looked inside.
and she found...Small, round piece of iron and metal?
"...Um...sorry but what are these?"
And yet again, The travelers stare at her flabbergasted
"It's...Money?"
"Money? Wait, OH! MONEY! R-Right!" Ruby gasped, Figuring out that this world Also didn't have Lien as it's currency.
"W-We have...eh, A Different kind of money from where I come from, See? We had...Um, colored cards not...um..."
"Those are called Coins." The traveler Answered for her.
"R-Right! Coins." Ruby said, Scratching the back of her head in embarrassment.
"Well! Thank you so much for the money! Stay safe okay?"
"Sure thing!" The travelers smiled.
"...But...Be careful. The Capital and the Empire here...Aren't all as Good as they seem."
"Specially toward Foreigners. So be sure not to tell EVERYONE that you're not from this country."
"... I'll keep that in mind." Ruby nodded and began to walk off into the Capital.
walking through the Capital, Ruby saw that This world Worked on a much less advanced way of living than her own.
She also didn't find a single dust shop anywhere. which could only mean one thing.
"...Dust doesn't exist in this world huh?" she mumbled to herself.
"Man, This just sucks. without dust This might as well be the stone age For me. But I finally have money, so...I guess I should look for a job. But where to go?"
"So you wanna join the ranks huh?" The man behind the reception Asked.
"Um, Actually, I wanna see the requirements first." Ruby explained.
"And make my decision...A day or two later if it's not much trouble?"
"...Fine. you can see the requirements right here." He then placed a paper right on his desk.
"Make sure you read this Carefully too."
Ruby picked the paper up and looked into it.
'Okay, Let's first see what I'll...Huh?...eh...Um...w-Wait...WH-WHAT LANGUAGE OR HANDWRITING IS THIS?!'
Ruby panics, Sweat falling from her face as she just realized that this world's Writing is also very different.
'Ohmygodohmygodohmygod What am I supposed to do?! If anyone finds out I can't even read this world's Writing I might as well die! AGAIN!'
"Well?" the man asked.
"W-Well, I uh...I-I might need some counseling with...M-My parents about this first. A-And a lot of thinking to do too!" Ruby answered, Pretending that she understood Everything that was written in the Paper.
"...Fine, Suit yourself." The man took the paper back, and Ruby began to walk out of the building.
she then Collapsed on a bench out of sheer exhaustion.
"Dang iiiiit. How am I supposed to Learn how to read and Write around here? Can I even afford a job? Where do I even Go?!...Uuuuuugh it's all my first day at beacon ALL OVER AGAIN..."
she the. looks up at the sky, tired and exhausted, Placing a hand on her forehead to block out some sunlight.
"...Welcome to the capital..."
"Helllllllloooooooo~~~~"
she then heard someone calling out to her.
she looked over from under her hand, seeing a figure of someone right Infront of her bench.
"You look a little lost." the person said
"Need a little hand?~"
'... Who's this?' Ruby asked herself before sitting up, and when she looked up...
...Her breathing stopped...her heart stopped beating...the memories started to come back...
"Yang!" Ruby yelled, shaking her sister in her arms
"Yang please say something!"
"Ru...by?" Yang opened her eyes, Her wounds fatally bleeding.
"I-IM HERE! I'm right here! please just hang on!"
"...Ruby...I'm...I'm sorry...I should...have been...a better sister for you..." Yang weakly spoke, Tears coming down from her eyes.
"N-No no NO please! n-Not you too! I'm begging you please...Don't... don't leave me too..." Ruby pleaded.
"...Yang?...Y-Yang?!...no...Please...don't...leave me alone..."
"Eh?! Whoa hey Are...A-Are you Okay?!"
Ruby's PTSD quickly stopped, As she noticed the Blonde, Tall and...Busty girl that approached her now looking at her in worry and concern.
"W-What?"
"You're crying!"
placing a finger under her eye, She infact was crying.
This girl reminded her of Her dead Sister so much that the memory of Yang's death was relit in her mind for a moment.
"Well...um...Hachoo!" Ruby them Made a Fake Sneezing sound
"S-Seasonal Allergies! You know how it is."
"...Really?" The girl asked.
"Yup. my Seasonal Allergies have been kicking in a bit Early this year." Ruby lied.
'...yup. she's definitely Faking it.' The Blonde girl thought to herself, But decided to play along.
"Oooooh. Sucks huh?"
"Yup. REALLY sucks." Ruby kept the lie up.
"Soooooo what's your story?" The girl asked
"Lemme guess, You came from the country to Join the army and follow your dreams in the capital. Right?~"
"I'm...not really from this Kingdo-uh, Country." Ruby answered
"I'm...kindava Foreigner."
"Wait really?!" The girl gasped.
"Yeah. Just arrived on the Capital today." Ruby explained.
"I can tell." The blonde girl answered.
Ruby then decided to observe this Strange blonde girl and,
"WHOA!"
"Eh?! what what what is it?" the blonde Gasped at Ruby's suddenly surprised look.
"Wh...What are you...W-Wearing?" Ruby asked, Blushing at how...Revealing The blonde girls Outfit looked. She had a black Tube top similar to the Yellow Tube top Yang used to wear, With short sleeves that didn't cover her shoulders, Her belly fully exposed, and her pants didn't cover her panties!
'Not even Menageries clothing styles were THIS revealing!' Ruby thought to herself.
"What? Like whatchu see?~~~" The Blonde girl teased.
"U-Um, W-Well, you said you wanted to lend me a hand right?" Ruby quickly changed the subject.
"Depends on what kind of help you want~" The blonde girl answered.
"...A job would be nice." Ruby said.
"So you need a job huh?" The girl asked
"I can help you out, But first...you must treat me to dinner before that~"
'...Is she... Scamming Me?' Ruby asked herself.
"Aah~ drinking in the middle of the day is the BEST!" the girl said, While she and ruby were now in a dinner.
"Come on Kid! Drink up!"
"No way. Drinking almost got my Uncle killed." Ruby answered
"I'm not touching any of this stuff."
"Awww you're no fun~" The girl then continues to drink up.
'...I can't tell if she wants to Scam me, or just to trick me into a free meal for herself.' Ruby thought to herself, Eating her food.
'I better play my cards right here. I'm not a naive kid that's easy to treat anymore. Let's see what she's really after.'
"So, You said you could help me get a job, right?" Ruby asked.
"Oh yeah. But it takes some connections first kid." the girl explained
"And for that, A you're gonna need some money."
"...Money huh?" Ruby said.
"Yup! I know a guy that can help you out. But he doesn't come cheap. So first_"
"Can I asked something first?" Ruby cuts the girls off
"Is it...Foolproof and completely Guaranteed?"
'...Hehehehe, She's falling for it.' The blonde Thought to herself in an Evil way,
"Of course it is! You won't be disappointed!"
'...She's just telling me what I want to hear.' Ruby observed.
"...So, Let's say...I can join the military like, Tomorrow or some time sooner if I Let you and this guy of yours help me right?" She asked
"Totally. like I said, you won't be disappointed!" The girl said.
"... You're trying to scam me."
"...Eh?"
"You're trying to scam me out of my money, I know you are!" Ruby spoke up, Glaring at the blonde girl who was now panicking.
"Do you really think I'm that easy?!"
"Um, Well, I, You see, I, It's not how it seems I'm just, Well,"
Ruby just sighed when the drunk Blondy before her just stumbles through words to make up an excuse.
"...You know what, I didn't want to do this, but you REALLY pushed it." Ruby said, and then faces the entire dinner, And Took a deep breath.
"What are you_" The blonde girl tried to ask, but then!
"HEY EVERYONE!" Ruby called out, getting everyone's attention in the dinner
"MY FRIEND HERE WANTS TO TREAT YOU ALL TO DRINKS AND SNAKES! ON HER TAB!"
"SAY WHAT?!" The blonde girl Gasped in shock.
the People in the Dinner all cheered in happiness, While the blonde girl just panics at how much In debt she'll be.
"Have fun." Ruby winked and the girl, and began walking toward the door and walks out!
"HEY! WAIT A MINUTE!" the blonde girl calls out, Trying to reach for Ruby.
she runs outside looking for the Red riding hood
"GET BACK HERE YOU...eh?... Where'd she go?!"
"See? I warned you that one of these days someone will Scam you back if you continue this stupid game of yours." The dinners owner said as he walks up to Her from behind with a satisfied smirk.
"Serves you right, You greedy little girl. Also, I've already had about 12 Orders by now. And she said You'll be paying~"
"Um...Put it...On my tab?" She asked nervously
"No. You're paying. Cash upfront. TODAY." the dinner owner said, Still smirking.
"Oooor you could just work off all the debt you'll be in. what'll it be?"
"...Awwww crap..." The blonde girl sighed in defeat.
"Hope she learned her lesson." Ruby spoke as she walks through the streets by herself.
'...There should be a Hotel or an Inn somewhere around here. But I can't even read their Writing, How do I know which side to go?' She asked herself, while looking at a Directions board.
"...I guess I'll just sleep on a rooftop or something..." She sighed, and with her semblance she ran up on one of the buildings and lands on the roof.
"Thank God I still have my cape, or I'd freeze up here."
she then placed her folded crescent Rose down and lays her head down on it as a Hard pillow. she wrapped Her cape around herself and pulled her hood down to cover her ears from the cold.
"...Why am I even here? What is my purpose anymore?" She asked herself
"Is this a punishment? My punishment for all the awful things I've done while trying to save Remnant? to just drift aimlessly in a new world?" She questioned her being in this world.
"...I just...want to be with my friends and family again...with my team..."
and with tears in her eyes, she fell asleep.
The next day, Ruby wonders the streets of the capital, aimlessly and alone.
"What the hell am I supposed to do? Is there any Danger beast hunting job around here? Because I excel at those." Ruby talked to herself.
"but what if they need me to file in paperwork first? I can't write their language!"
while walking, she saw a huge palace far ahead. it was White with jade and golden features.
"...wow..." Ruby said in awe
"...it looks kinda cool."
"You talking about the Palace?"
"Eh?!" Ruby gasped and looked back, seeing a Guard had approached her.
"Whoa hey! Calm down, I'm not gonna bite you." The guard assured, putting his hands up.
"Um, Sorry. I'm kind of new around here." Ruby explained.
"But you said that over there is a palace?"
"The Imperial Palace actually. The emperor and the higher-ups usually do all the work from up there." The guard explained.
"Oh. so it's practically a castle for the emperor then." Ruby nodded.
"Not really, The emperor is still just a child, so the minister does most of the hard work that might be too much for The emperor." The guard explained.
"I see." Ruby nodded.
"And if you're new here, you should probably keep them in mind." The guard then pointed at a few hunter posters.
"Criminals?" Ruby asked.
"Worst. they're Night raid." The guard answered.
"They're a band of killers for hire. Make sure you don't Get under their radar, They're all merciless and evil Assassin's."
"Noted." Ruby nodded, Looking at the wanted posters.
'...If they have bounties on them, Maybe I can try Bounty hunting for a change? No, Getting on the bad side of a group of Murderers is the last thing I want right now."
"Oh. Miss Aria is done it seems." The Guards said as he looks to the side.
Ruby looks over too and sees a blonde girl in a blue dress, Clearly this Aria the man spoke up, And...A MOUNTAIN of Shopping bags being carried by another guard and a boy.
'Hoooooly shiz...Even Weiss had a limit to how much she would spent money.' Ruby thought, staring at the amount of Bags the two carried.
'...Wait second...that guy is!'
"Tatsumi?"
"Eh?" Tatsumi looked up from the bags he was carrying, and is shocked to see Ruby
"Ruby?"
"Oh? You two know each other?" Aria asked, Curiously observing Ruby.
"How delightful." Airas mother giggled as she watched Ruby happily eat the cookies she requested.
"Our daughter brought another guest home."
"Miss rose, please try to eat slowly!" Aria warned.
"You might choke!"
Ruby swallowed the last Cookie, Satisfied with the taste.
"Sorry. I just haven't had any cookies for a LONG time."
"Ho ho ho. Such a lively young lady." Arias father laughed, While Tatsumi could relate to why she loved cookies so much.
"We've also Been told that you are in need of a job, yes?"
"Well, Yes, pretty much." Ruby nodded.
"If it helps, Tatsumi is my Bodyguard at the moment." Aria explained.
"Would you like to also be my bodyguard. Tatsumi here said that you are rather skilled."
"...Well...If it pays well, I wouldn't mind." Ruby agreed.
"Great!" Aria happily cheered
"Please allow me to show you to your room!"
"Thanks a lot." Ruby smiled.
after Aira showed ruby to her room, Ruby Entered the bathroom that came with her guest room.
she entered in and took her clothes off...and watched herself in the mirror.
her body was still scarred and damaged as she remembered. Her wounds before her death had only healed, but they didn't vanish.
"...This would really Be awkward for others to see." Ruby said to herself, and began to Fill the Bathtub with water
"I better keep all of my clothes on around others then. I don't want people to see these."
As she took a bath, She relaxed and happily let her body be refreshed in the water.
she couldn't even remember the last time she had a proper and relaxing bath. She'd usually be busy fighting Salem's forces or In her new life's situation, Be lost in the woods or in the capital.
'At least I have a job now. It might really pay well. and To top it all off, I found Tatsumi again! That's a plus.' She thought to herself.
'Then again, He might be a little too overconfident. But I can tell he has some potential...Heh, He really reminds me of Jaune...' She thought to herself, still laying down in the bathtub.
After a while, Ruby dried herself up and wore her own clothes back on again, with the difference of Hanging her cape by a chair near her bed.
she placed Her folded Crescent Rose on the nightstand by her bed, and tried to drift off into sleep.
At midnight, Ruby jumped in shock as she heard a commotion outside.
she wore her cape and picked up Crescent Rose and placed it on the back of her belt again, And runs out of the door into the hall ways.
When she came across a window...she saw A bunch of Strange people Around her age killing the guards.
"...Night raid..." She mumbled, But then she suddenly remembered Aria and her parents.
" I've got to find them!"
she used her semblance and dashed through the entire mansion, Looking for Aria her parents and Tatsumi.
as she kept running...she suddenly came across Miss Arias mother.
...Or what was left of her.
she stared at the mothers Corpse, Sliced in half on the floor.
'...No...Why...Why couldn't I...save her...?'
She then looks up, and notices a Girl with Purple hair and A Mistral like Purple dress with glasses covered in blood, alongside a Giant Pair of sharp and deadly scissors in hand.
"...Did you kill her?" Ruby asked her hair covering her silver eyes with a little hint of Anger in her voice.
"...I'm sorry..." The girl in Purple Said, before she held her Scissors in both hands.
"But please...don't resist..."
*Woosh!*
"Eh?" The Purple girl didn't get to react in time, before she didn't just see, but could smell Rose petals surrounding her before Ruby grabbed her by the face, and dashed through the hallway with the girl!
"GRREAAA!" Ruby roared before she slammed the girl against one of the windows, and they both fell outside!
As they came close to landing, Ruby while still Gripping until the girls face, Bashed her on the ground mercilessly with all her speed and strength!
"AH!" the girl gasped in pain, but her eyes were widened when she suddenly saw The girl holding a Giant red metal scythe out of nowhere!
Ruby with her hood over her head now, stabbed her Crescent Roses Spear end into the girls shoulder, Causing her to scream in pain!
'...This world doesn't have Aura either it seems...Good.' Ruby thought, As she stepped onto the girls wounded shoulder, making her scream more in pain
'It makes it easier for me to Massacre these damn murderers.'
*BANG!*
but then, Ruby dashed back right before a gunshot goes through her head!
then she dodges a spear aimed right at her back!
Looked at her attacker, she saw a Man fully in white armor, with a spear that had a Red blade on it.
"... you're pretty fast." The armored man Complemented, before swinging his spear around and aiming it at Ruby,
"But I might just be faster!"
*Woosh!*
"Think Again." Ruby spoke as she dashed right behind the armored man, and swung her scythe at his head!
he then blocked with his spear, but ruby began to rush him down without any hesitation.
all along, she kept dodging all of the gunshots that were fired at her.
'A sniper. Damn it, I should have refilled my Ammo from somewhere! Stupid!' She cursed herself for not getting Ammo sooner, Right before the Armored man Stabbed her into her chest!
or so he thought.
Ruby separated into 3 more Petal burst masses, and all three began to spin around the armored man at high speed, Not just confusing him, but also Shocking him!
she then appeared under him and slashed her scythe at a part of his armor that ironically wasn't armored, Injuring him!
"Gah!" He grunted and fell on his knee.
"Damn...What the hell...kind of technique Was that?!"
Ruby raised her scythe, ready to slice his head off, but then!
"BACK OFF!"
she then dodged another bullet and saw a girl in a pink dress aiming a large rifle at her.
"Gotcha!"
But then, She felt something wrap around her arms and waist!
she noticed a Green haired teen behind her with a pair of weird looking gloves, with the wires around her connected to his gloves claw like tips.
But she simply used her semblance again, turning into a mass of Rose petals and getting out of the wires, appearing Right above the boy!
"THE HELL?!" the green haired teen gasped in shock.
"GET OUT OF THE WAY!" the Armored man warned Him, but he wasn't fast enough.
Ruby slashed at his Shoulder, Badly Injuring Him!
"Damn!" The green haired boy cursed as he fell down, Holding his bleeding shoulder
"Who...the hell is this chick? our info didn't tell us anything about a bodyguard THIS tough..."
"GOD DAMN BITCH!" The pink haired girl yelled trying to fire at ruby Again, Only for her to Use her semblance to dash around the area, easily dodging her shots
"How is she DOING THAT?!"
but then, Ruby began to move right toward the girl even faster, Before appearing and delivering a drop kick right into the girls Stomach!
the pink haired girl gasped in pain and fell on her back.
she then tried to pick her Rifle up, but Ruby had her scythe around the back of her neck.
"Don't. even. Try. You murderer."
the pink haired girl just stares hooded red reaper, Somewhat making out Rubies silver eyes.
"Where's Aria?" She asked.
"And her father. Where are they?!"
"...Go to hell. You'll see the father there." The Pink haired girl spat out.
Ruby gasped, figuring that Arias father was also dead.
"Where's Aria?!"
"Fuck you!"
*SWING!*
"AAAAAHH!" The pink girl Yelled in pain as ruby Slashed her arm.
"ANSWER ME!" Ruby yelled in rage.
"The shack!"
Both ruby, and the Pink girl not shocked, Looked over at the purple one, desperately looking at them with pleading eyes while holding her bleeding arm.
"Th-There is a shack north of here! She was seen running there!"
"Wha- Sheele don't Tell this bitch Anything!" The pink hair girl yelled.
"Please, Just don't hurt my friends!" The purple girl, Now known as Sheele to Ruby, Pleaded, somewhat bowing her head.
'...These are merciless Killers?' Ruby asked herself
'She can't be a killer. No one known as a killer would be this...worried for a partner...'
She looked at the Pink girl, still glaring at her
"Leave. Or ELSE."
then, using her petal burst, she disappeared into the surrounding woods.
"...Who the hell was that?" The green haired boy wondered, still holding his bleeding shoulder.
Ruby moved faster by the second, Approaching the so called shack up ahead.
as she approached...She saw A girl will Black long hair...stabbing Tatsumi through the chest...
her eyes widened, Fear and sadness washing through her...with the image of Jaunes dead body under Cinders feet coming in her mind...which all were quickly replaced by rage.
"GET AWAY FROM HIM!"
She dashed forward, and dropkicks the Girl in black.
She managed to block with one arm, but gets pushed away!
"M-Miss Rose!" Aria gasped.
"Tatsumi?" Ruby looked over to Her friend.
"Please say something!"
"...Man...that was close..." Tatsumi coughed out, Shocking both Ruby and Aria.
"Heheheh...My village really protected me from that one..." He then pulled out a small Statue that blocked the stab for him, Showing how he survived.
"...Thank god..." Ruby sighed
"I thought...I lost you..."
"Eh?! I-I mean, Sorry about that." Tatsumi said
But don't worry, I don't die that easily!"
"Heh...you better mean that." Ruby smiled.
and Tatsumi...Blushed at how Colorful and bright her Smile was.
"Your not a target."
Ruby heard the girl speak.
"Move aside."
"No." Ruby Glared at the girl
"I'm not Letting you to get away from all of this!"
"...Then I'll Eliminate you too." The girl aimed her sword at Ruby.
"R-Ruby be careful! She's really dangerous!" Tatsumi warned as he picked his sword up again, trying to run to Rubies side.
"Stay where you are Tatsumi!" Ruby yelled, Surprising Tatsumi
"Protect Aria! I'll handle our first line of defense."
"Gotcha!" Tatsumi nodded, and ran back toward Aria.
'Tatsumi isn't strong enough to help me. It's best he stays behind me with Aria.' She then looked back at the black haired and Red eyes killer
'...She feels really strong...But I'm not gonna let anyone else die under my protection.'
"Last chance to move aside." The girl warned.
"Never." Ruby answered.
"...Okay then."
the girl dashed forward, And ruby did the same.
Ruby just dodged Her attacks, Surprising The other girl at how fast she was.
And also surprising someone else too
'Hey! It's that brat from yesterday!' The blonde girl from before...with lion features now, yelled mentally as she looks into the fight.
'Why is she here?! And she's trying to fight Akame Barehanded?!'
as the fight continues, She sees how fast and agile The red hooded girl is.
'Shes pretty fast tho. I've never seen Akames agility get matched like that.'
'I need to time this right!' Ruby thought to herself as she kept dodging Her attacks.
'If I pull out Crescent Rose now, I'll lose the element of surprise.'
She kept dodging, until the girl appeared right In front of her!
'Almost there. Just a little more...' Ruby calmly thought, as the girl thrust her blade toward Rubies Throat.
'NOW!'
Ruby used her Semblance, Surprising the girl and also the blonde one as she turned into a mass of Rose petals and appeared right behind the girl in black, and finally, Her Crescent Rose was fully revealed!
The girl in black is shocked by the size of her scythe, before dashing forward to dodge.
*Slice!*
*Splat*
"Ah!" But she was too slow.
Ruby managed to put a very deep scar on the girls back, a little blood getting splashed out too.
but it wasn't a fatal or deep wound. The black-haired girl had dashed forward far enough to ignore fatal damage!
"EH?!" Aira gasped at the reveal of the scythe.
"What?!...Th-Thats how she killed that Earth dragon!" Tatsumi finally figured out
"And...Look at the size of that thing!"
'SHE HAS A FUCKING SCYTHE?!' the blonde girl watched with wide eyes
'A-And she wounded Akame! Who the hell IS THIS GIRL?!'
The girl in black Gasped in and out, Feeling the burning Sting of the gash The red reaper planted on her back. further more, she was also very concerned with whatever Ruby did that turned her into a burst of roses.
"Give it up and go away." Ruby warned
"Don't make me Hurt you even more."
"...No." The red eyes girl answered, Holding her sword tighter.
"Don't you get it?! My weapon has a longer reach than yours, And I'm clearly faster than you!" Ruby yelled.
"And your wounded! You can't win!"
"...If you think those advantages Will let you win, then you're more Naive than you look." The red eyed girl said, Ready to attack again.
"Dang." Ruby gripped Crescent Rose Tighter as well.
"Fine! I warned you!"
Then, Using petal Burst again, She dashed all over The red eyes girl, Shocking both the assassin and Tatsumi and Aria as well by her semblance display.
She rapidly dashed past the assassin, Swinging her scythe at her at high speed as the Black-haired girl could only block!
'She's...So fast! I've never seen anyone move like that!' Tatsumi thought in awe as he watched Ruby fight the assassin
'But how is she doing that? No one can just...turn into flowers can they?'
'If this keeps up I'll run out of Aura!' Ruby thought to herself.
'It's all or nothing. I gotta take her out NOW!'
She then dashed right at Her head on!
The assassin swung her sword again, only for ruby to split into three petal burst pieces again and just like the armored killer with the spear, she rapidly spun all around her, confusing and shocking her before riddling her sight with Rose petals, Blinding her line of sight before appearing under her and swung her scythe again, slashing at her left thigh!
"GRR!" the Red eyed killer grunted in pain as she felt pain on her thigh, but Ruby also kept attacking right after with a kick to the side of her head!
The assassin blocked but the pain in her leg caused her to fall down!
By the end, ruby had Crescent Roses blade right at the back of The assassins neck, and one leg on her sword so she wouldn't be able to attack her again.
"Y-Yes! Ruby totally got her now!" Tatsumi cheered, While Aria sighed in relief.
"Last chance. Leave. NOW." Ruby warned.
"...Who are you?" The girl asked, feeling the sharp blade on the back of her neck.
"..." Ruby remained silent, but she gasped as she felt someone dash right at her!
She dodged a very powerful punch, and slashed at her new attacker while jumping back!
"AH!" The Blonde girl yelled in pain, holding her bleeding arm because of Rubies attack.
"You little shit! I'm gonna Kill you for that!"
"Eh?! W-Wait, YOU AGAIN!?" Ruby gasped.
"W-Wait hang on! YOU'RE THE BOOBS FROM THE OTHER DAY!" Tatsumi yelled pointing at the Blonde.
"W-Wait what did you just call her?!" Ruby gasped at Tatsumi's choice of words.
"Akame, Step back for now." The blonde girl said, angrily cracking her knuckles
"I have a bone to pick with miss little red riding bitch over here!"
"Hey! You started it yesterday!" Ruby yelled.
'...Wait...Cat ears? A tail...and paws too?' Ruby thought as she looked at the Blonde girl
"Wait, You're a Faunus!?"
...Tatsumi, Aria and even the assassins all stare at Ruby blankly at her question
"...Furnace?" The Blonde Lion girl asked, tilting her head a little to the side out of confusion
"D-Did you...Call me a Furnace?"
"Your Ears! A-And the Paws! the Tail!" Ruby pointed out
"You have animal features! How can you not know what a Faunus is?! You're one YOURSELF!"
"...Are you calling me a fucking furry!?" The Blonde girl angrily yelled.
"Wha-What even is a Furry?!" Ruby yelled back.
"What am I watching?" Tatsumi sweat dropped.
'This is bad. I'm already low on Aura, I Can't fight much more than this.' Ruby thought to herself.
'All I'm left with are Warnings, threats and Bluffs now!'
"If you don't want to end up like your friends from before, then you better leave, NOW." Ruby warned.
"'Our friends'?" The Blonde lion girl raised an Eye brow.
"One of them was in purple, had glasses and a giant pair of scissors right?" Ruby said, While The two assassins eyes widen in surprise.
"I stabbed her through her shoulder. The armored one with the spear, bleeding out. the green haired and pink one? Cuts across their shoulders. If you hurry now you might just find them before they bleed out to death."
"...You're bluffing." The Lion girl glared at Ruby angrily.
"You're still just one girl. You expect us to believe that bullshit that you took on the rest of out comrades singlehandedly?"
"...Leone, She's not lying..." the red eyed girl spoke up
"...Her Scythe...It already had blood on it the moment she appeared here."
'...How did she even notice that? her back was to me when I pulled Crescent rose out!' Ruby thought.
"What...?" The girl, now named Leone looked at The red eyed girl, and the other one nodded for comfirmation.
"...You...YOU'RE SO FUCKING DEAD!"
'Crap!' Ruby sweat dropped, seeing the situation has gotten worse.
"L-Look, I don't care what the hell you murderers want from this family!" Ruby spoke up, Putting her fear and panic aside
"I'm NOT going to let you kill an innocent girl!"
"...Innocent You say?" Leone asked looked over to Aria
"Sorry to break it to you, But this girl ain't innocent. Neither were her parents or anyone else here."
"What are you talking about?" Tatsumi asked.
"...Look into that warehouse. You can find your answer there." Leone pointed at the shack behind them.
"...Tatsumi, Step aside." Ruby ordered.
Tatsumi did as she told, While Aria Panics.
Ruby sliced the lock and chains off, and opens the warehouse door...and her entire world came crashing down around her.
She saw Dead bodies, Alive civilians suffering in agony, torture tools, stench of death in the air...and worse of all, Corpses of children.
"...Oh...O-Oh my god..." Ruby gasped, Holding a hand on her mouth out of shock.
"What...is this?" Tatsumi asked in horror as well.
"Welcome to the capital." Leone said.
"The family here would take in foreigners and country folk, drug them and then torture them to death for fun."
"F-For F-Fun?" Ruby asked,
"Yup." Leone answered.
"...Wait...Sayo?" Tatsumi then noticed a girl, Tortured with one of her legs cut off, hanging by chains by her wrists.
"Y-You knew her?" Ruby asked
"Sh-She was my friend...S-Sayo!" Tatsumi kept calling out, Making it harder for Ruby to tell him that she was dead.
Aria tried to sneak away, but then,
*WOOSH!*
Aria, Leone, the red eyed girl who managed to stand back up again, and even Tatsumi all Blinked in slight shock, feeling a strong gust of wind run past their faces with Rose petals in the air.
"Aria..." Ruby spoke up. Anger, Rage, Betrayal, Hatred, ALL of these emotions running through her tone as she glares at the girl
"EXPLAIN!"
"I-I didn't know that was even there!" Aria cried out.
"M-My parents told me to stay away from that warehouse! I never knew this was happening! Please Ruby you have to Believe me!"
"..." Ruby just kept glaring at the girl, Scaring Aria even more.
"Tat...sumi..." Ruby and everyone else heard a voice call out to Tatsumi from inside the warehouse.
"Is...That...you...?"
"L-Leyasu!?" Tatsumi gasped.
Seeing that there was a survivor, Ruby ran back in the Warehouse, seeing a boy reaching out to tatsumi in agony.
"That girl...Approached me and Sayo...She said she'd give us a place to stay...She gave us a meal and we passed out...then when we woke up...we were here and...She TORTURED Sayo To death!"
Seeing that She was lied to again, Ruby looks back at Aria again
"Why?! WHAT DID SHE EVER DO TO YOU!?"
"OH SHUT UP! WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?!" Aria yelled, snapping with rage.
"YOU BASTARDS ARE ALL COUNTRY BUMPKINS! NO DIFFERENT THAN LIVESTOCK! I CAN DO WHATEVER THE HELL I WANT WITH ANY OF YOU!"
Ruby was taken aback at how vile she had gotten in one second.
"AND THAT FARM ANIMAL HAD THE NERVE TO HAVE BEAUTIFUL AND LONG STRAIGHT HAIR WHILE I'M STUCK WITH KINKED SHORT HAIR OF MINE!"
"...You...tortured and killed an innocent...because she had better hair than you...?" Ruby asked, Her voice trembling while The two assassins thought she was going to burst into crying.
"BECAUSE I CAN AND I LOVED IT! YOU SHOULD BE THANKING ME FOR MAKING HER SUFFER THROUGHLY_"
*SLICE!*
"...Eh?" aria blinked, before falling backwards.
She tried to get up...But she noticed something crusial.
"W-What? Why can't I get up?! What is...Ah...AHH!" She gasped at what ruby did to her.
"MY LEEEGS! OH GOD MY LEEEEEEGS! AAAAAAAAAHHH! IT HURTS! IT HUUUUUURTS!"
She cried out, while Ruby stood over her with Crescent Rose stained in more blood.
"Yikes." Leone said, Not even bothering to stop Ruby.
And the Red eyed killer just watches.
"Welp. Sorry to keep you waiting Akame. You can go Right ahead."
The girl, Now know as Akame to Ruby, Managed to walk even with an injured leg toward them.
"Stay away." Ruby warned.
"What? Seriously? You're trying to protect her?" Leone asked
"SHUT. UP." Ruby lashed out, Surprising Leone.
"You don't get to Take this away from me."
She then grabbed Aria by her hair, and began dragging her toward the warehouse as she kept crying.
"H-Hey...What are you..." Tatsumi tried to asked, Only For Ruby to ignore him and Look around the Torture house, Looking for something. Anything.
She then saw something that she could use. An Iron Maiden. She has never seen one up close, but she knew how they worked or what they do.
"...That will do..." Ruby said, Dragging Aria toward the Iron Maiden.
"Wait! WAIT! NO! NOT THAT! PLEASE NO!" Aria begged, Scared of what she was about to do.
"Wait, Is she really gonna..." Leone wondered in surprise.
"...She is." Akame agreed.
Ruby kicked the Iron Maiden open
'...So what If killing is wrong? So what if a Huntress is suppose to be a beacon of hope. In this world that's all just crazy talk or story book nonsense.' She thought to herself, picking Aria up by her collar.
'I don't care who thinks I'm a Killer or not...This isn't Remnant anymore...I'm just A Dead girl walking in a stranger world...And I'm DONE Acting all Sweet and caring.'
Ruby then Kicked Aria into the Iron Maiden!
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Aria screamed in pain, while the spikes stabbed into her back and sides.
Akame, Tatsumi and Even Leone all stare in shock, unable to Believe that Ruby would actually go that far.
"...You're a selfish, arrogant, evil and unforgeable Brat...I can't believe I thought of you as a friend..." Ruby spoke, Distaste and disgust in her tone.
"Be Glad this is the LEAST I'm willing to do to you. If I wanted to I would have used EVERY single toy you have stashed in this place!"
"P...Please...For...give...me..." Aria pleaded in agony.
"...there was one thing you got wrong however." Ruby continued.
"I'm not from the capital, True...but I'm Not classified as livestock..." Ruby said, Gripping the Iron Maidens doors
"To you...I'm the BIG BAD MONSTER."
'...Holy shit...This kid is a psycho..." Leone said, Watching as Ruby was preparing to Slam the Iron Maiden shut
'No wonder she managed to beat the others...She's...The Grimm reaper, straight up.'
"...Wait..." Ruby looked back, Seeing Tatsumi walking up to them.
"...I wanna do it myself."
Only giving a Nod, Ruby steps back while Tatsumi slams the Iron Maiden Shut!
*BRANG!*
It made a booming sound, While Aria screamed and gurgled in pain in the Iron Maiden.
'And he didn't even hesitate...' Leone observed.
"Damn...That was pretty cool..." Leyasu smirked.
"Making cooler new friends already, huh Tatsumi...BLEGH!"
Ruby and Tatsumi gasped as they saw Leyasu vomit blood.
"What's happening to him?!" Tatsumi asked while holding his friend in his arms.
"He's infected with the Rubola Virus. The wife enjoyed using all kinds of Drugs as experiments on her victims and recording them on her journals." Akame Explained.
"It's too late. There's no saving him."
Ruby felt her stomach getting sick. It was happening ALL over again. She still couldn't save anyone, Only punish the villain...as usual.
This time it was almost right under her nose too! she could have at least save a few of the victims the moment she entered the household! At least few of them could have been saved, even by a few hours!
...But yet again...She couldn't save anyone...
Seeing that Leyasu was speaking his last words to Tatsumi, She quickly walked out of the Torture house, unable to bare the moment...
...She had heard her friends and team speak their last words to her A LOT by now...She just couldn't bare it anymore...To bare the nightmares...and memories...the suffering...
Her breathing began to get heavy. She leaned by the torture houses wall, Her stomach turning and her vision getting blurry and dazed, her head spinning, her muscles feeling like Jell-O.
"Hey. You okay?" Leone called out to Ruby, Seeing how worse to wear she suddenly looked.
"L-Leave m-m-me Alone..." Ruby mumbled.
"whatever. Like I care_"
"BLEEGH!"
Leone suddenly gasped as she saw Ruby suddenly vomit her guts out.
Ruby fell on her knees, coughing and gagging.
"Hey! You okay?!" Leone ran to her side, placing a paw on the Rubies Back.
"L-Leave me Alone!" Ruby yelled
"I can't...I just...I can't...Take it anymore..."
"What the hell are you saying?" Leone asked.
"...W...W-Why...Why can't I..." Ruby mumbled, not caring if Leone was hearing her
"...Save...Anyone...?"
Leone was stares at her, shocked by her words
'...Poor girl...What has she been through?' she asked herself, watching as Ruby silently tears up while catching her breath at last.
'Oh what the hell! Watching her cry like this FAR worse than Pummeling her as payback!'
Then, Rubies eyes widened when she felt Leone pull her into a hug.
"Shh...It's okay...Everything's gonna be okay..." She softly whispered to Ruby, comforting the hurt and lonely reaper.
Ruby closed her eyes and holds Leones arms for comfort, feeling warmth and care after so long loneliness.
"It's all okay...It wasn't your fault...You didn't know." Leone Continued.
"B-But I should have! I...Should have at least...Tried hours ago when They dragged me here...Someone must have been alive by then!...I-I could have_"
"Stop. Just, Stop." Leone hugged her tighter
"Blaming yourself ain't gonna help. And if you're doing to as a sense of punishment or self-hate then you don't deserve it. You killed that disgusting girl and Avenged everyone in that hell hole. That's more than enough."
Ruby just kept silent, still tearing up before she felt her heart slow down and finally calmed down.
Akame watched this happen, feeling sad for the Red Riding hood.
...And she almost relate herself to her, understanding how she feels.
Soon enough, ruby stood up with her hood off, letting Akame to finally see her darksih red hair and Bright silver eyes.
"...Sniff... Thanks...A-And...Sorry for getting in your way..." Ruby apologized.
"Nah don't worry about it." Leone shrugged it off.
"Oh yeah! Akame you good? Can you walk?"
"I can manage." Akame answered, not caring about her bleeding leg in pain.
"We should leave."
"...Wait...Akame, Lets take these two with us!" Leone suggested.
"...Wait what?" Both Akame and Ruby asked at the same time.
"Think about it! This girl managed to almost beat not just you, but also fought all the others and Won!" Leone explained
"Also, this one has some talent and a lot of potential. These two can be GREAT additions to our base!"
"W-Wait, Hang on!" Ruby called out.
"HEY! LET ME GO!" Tatsumi yelled while Leone dragged him out of the warehouse.
"I'VE GOT TO BURY MY FRIENDS!"
"Don't worry~. I'll carry the bodies back to the base later!" Leone assured, and then looked over to Ruby
"So you coming? And don't try to give us a no for an answer."
"You best give it up. Leone won't let go once she's got her eye on something or someone." Akame explained.
"I...Well...UUUUUgh find." Ruby just decided to Agree, And walked past them.
"...Grab on."
"Huh?" All three look at her in confusion.
"I said grab onto my shoulders." Ruby repeated.
"And don't let go."
"Why?" Akame asked.
"Just...Do it." Ruby answered.
Leone shrugged and did a ruby told, while Akame followed suit next.
Tatsumi was hesitant, but trusting Ruby, He did so too.
'...Okay...Just enough aura left for one last burst...' Ruby thought to herself as she took a quick deep breath.
"Buckle up!" She yelled.
"Wait, 'Buckle up'?" Leone repeated.
*WOOOOOOOOSH!*
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" All three of them then Screamed in panic as Ruby activated her Semblance again, while dragging all three in her Petal burst too which all appeared as Yellow, Black and Brown versions of Rubies Petal burst, following the red lead from behind.
"Ow!" Mine grunted.
"Just hold still okay? I'm almost done." The Bulat said, bandaging Mines shoulder up.
"And Done!"
"Gee thanks." Mine rolled her eyes and got back up.
"seriously Guys, WHO WAS THAT?!" Lubbock repeated the same question yet again.
"for the last time: I don't know, But I'm gonna fucking kill her the next time I see her!" Mine yelled.
"I'm not sure if that's wise." Sheele said in worry.
"...Wait...What's that?" bulat pointed at...a speeding mass of colorful roses heading their way!
"Is that...OH SHIT!" Lubbock gasped as the assive fusion of Petal Burst slammed down on the rooftop next to them, and suddenly, Leone, Akame, Tatsumi and Ruby just appeared out of nowhere!
"Wha-WHA-WHA-WHA-WHA-WHAT THE FUUUUUUCK!?" Leone yelled as she jumped back up.
"WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!" Tatsumi yelled as he got up too
"MY BODY FELT LIKE IT WAS IN PIECES BUT ALSO STILL THE SAME!"
"What...What did you do to us?!" Akame was the last to question.
"Loooooong story." Ruby answered
"YOOOOOUUUUU!" mine aimed her Gun at Ruby the moment she saw her.
"Um...I come In peace?" Ruby nicely but nervously asked, while putting her hands up.
"DON'T SCREW WITH ME!" mine yelled angrily.
"WHO DO YOU EVEN THINK YOU ARE COMING BACK AFTER ALL THE SHIT YOU DID!?"
"Whoa whoa whoa Mine wait!" Leone got in the way.
"She's one of us now!"
"...EXCUSE ME!?" Mine yelled louder.
"Yup! these two are gonna join us!" Leone answered.
"Hey! I didn't agree to anything!" Tatsumi yelled.
"Can you NOT drag everyone into whatever you want?" Ruby asked...Before her Aura fully vanished.
"Ah..."
*sssssss*
The sound of her Aura breaking caught everyone's attention, and they all blinked in shock when they saw Rubies body having a slight Red glow around it.
"He-Hey! What are you doing?!" Mine yelled aiming her gun back at Ruby.
"Whatever you're trying now, Stop it!"
"N-No no it's fine! I'm just...Uh...aah..." ruby, completely exhausted from overusing her semblance, didn't get to finish as everyone just gasped when the light around her body just vanished into small little particles.
"...What...just happened?" Bulat asked.
"Ruby?!" Tatsumi gasped, Seeing how exhausted and breathless Ruby seemed.
"Are you okay?" Akame asked, kneeling down next to Ruby.
"I'm...fine...Just...completely Spent." Ruby answered.
"Wow. You sure are Full of surprises." Leone said
"Okay. Bulat, You carry that other kid. I'll handle Her."
"Wait what?!" Tatsumi gaspd, Before Bulat picked him up.
"Okay. uppsie daisy!" Leone joked as she picked Ruby up in her arms and started to carry the red reaper herself
"You just relax sweety. Everything gonna be Allllllright."
"...I don't feel relaxed..." Ruby weakly mumbled.
"Mission complete! Returning to Base!" Akame stated, and they all jumped away while carrying their new members.
'...Welcome to a new world...' Ruby mentally said to herself, Before closing her eyes and falling asleep in Leones eyes out of exhaustion.
