Chapter 12: Dragon Courting Party

It was the night of the day Ruby had beaten Pyrrha, and a full day of her daydreaming of Vali to her frustration. No matter what she tried, no matter what mental discipline or meditation, it did not cure her of this attack on her psyche. She even had the spirits of Belzar and Elsha beat the shit out of her at the same time in some vain attempt to get her mind off of him, but it looked like it was getting worse. Ruby had consulted other spirits if they had this problem, but they actually looked down on her for this. If they were going fuck her over with Juggernaut Drive or her mental health, those cranky assholes can go fuck themselves.

But Ruby didn't need to delve her thoughts as of now in the middle of an important experiment, or rather craft, that she had to focus on. She was currently in her room alone but was lacking any of the natural light of the night via the missing windows. Spatial Expansion can only do so much in a literal one room dorm that was meant to fit four people with one bathroom. Only Great Red had that kind of rule breaker, and while the dragon god had indeed taught her his own power she was nowhere close to ever match him. As such, most of Ruby's room was shrouded in shadow except for a crimson and green glow that Ruby had her head over.

The light came from a ceramic ebony pot riddled with blue scratches of the dragon tongue glowing with draconic energy sat on a pentagon-shaped table. Each side of the table had dragon tongue scratched into them. The pot was filled with a red liquid that was boiling and glowing green. Ruby had her hands outstretched to the pot channeling her power and magic to fuel what she desired, who was currently in her semi-dragon form. She quite liked being in this form more often than her human or even her dragon form. The former felt imprisoning and cumbersome while her dragon form took a lot of mental strain to control her primal instincts. Yet, in her semi-dragon form, Ruby had the best of both worlds.

Over on the floor beside the table was the box that the devils gave that was filled with three sets of empty Evil Pieces, or more accurately the crystals they used for their reincarnation system. One of them was missing. On an outside perspective, the room looked like a scene of a witch in the middle of brewing whatever foul contraption was being made in the pot. It didn't help her image that she was currently chanting words of power in the dragon tongue.

"Sos do Rel." Ruby chanted in the dragon tongue, her eyes glowing an emerald green. "Joor Kopraan, Koraave ko Dovah..."

The liquid currently in the pot was actually Ruby's blood, now that of a pure dragon. She had finally fully converted her entire being into that of a dragon, leaving no trace of mortal humanity within her, which made it perfect for this to work. It wasn't even really a problem to bleed the appropriate amount for the craft. As horrendous as it was, the mages of old were onto something with they mystical properties of dragon's blood. Bathe in it, and no mortal steel shall pierce the body. Drink it and one gains a might no mortal man to match. But yet none knew of how to gain the immortality that dragon's blood flaunted.

"Gron Sil wah Pah do Gein." Ruby continued to chant, the craft reaching its peak. "Slen wah Qah. Sil do Unslaad Aal. Aam wah Dii Fen. Aam wah Dii Aal. Hon Dii Zul. Fin Zok Thu'um."

On the last line of Ruby's chant, the pot let out a wave of green energy that harmlessly swept through the room like a breeze. The light in Ruby's room died, but it was no consequence for Ruby's superior eyesight. The boiling blood erupted into an evaporated mist, the magic in the liquid of life spent. Yet, there still remained an intense neon glow from the bottom of the pot. Ruby casually approached the pot and a smile made its way on her face of what she beheld. Her clawed hand gripped at an object of her wonder, and her face was illuminated in a neon green glow from the a King chess piece seemingly made of emerald. Ruby looked down to the bottom of the pot and found the rest of the set all glowing an emerald light of the draconic power they were saturated in.

On this night, Ruby had created the first Wyvern Piece chess set. She had to compliment the genius of Ajuka for developing the Evil Piece system, but his own greed for the devil race had limited from so much more. He could've achieved a wonder for the supernatural world as a whole if he incorporated the reincarnation system for all supernatural races. Angels, fallen angels, yokai, and especially dragons, who were left to near extinction by both human and nonhuman. The Underworld would've claimed unrivaled political sway among the other supernatural factions if Ajuka didn't concern himself to just devils. Truly a wasted opportunity from simply expanding his horizons.

Ruby knew that immortality meant leaving friends and family to wither away as she stayed eternal. It was an inevitability Ruby knew, but it saddened her nonetheless. Especially her cousin, no, sister Yang that had been so kind and stuck to her like glue. Despite Ruby's detached attitude, she loved her sister dearly and even gave up her mortality to a life as a dragon to save Yang. The event of losing her mother was still a lingering trauma on the dragoness' head, but she made a promise to not lose her family. They will stay together forever, as dragons should be. But of course, Ruby will give Yang the choice of such and will soon break this news to her own teammates. They proved to be a good team, and with bodies of dragons and a bit of training nothing can stop them.

That will all come later, one step at a time, such as the King piece in her hand. Ruby held the King piece, scrathed with the dragon word for will and authority, close to her bosom. Automatically, a green glow resonated off her sternum and the chess piece glowed in unison. The piece soon sunk into her chest, but no harm came to Ruby. It wasn't just binding to her heart, but her very soul.

The entire process of taking in the King piece filled Ruby with such euphorian that her tail rattled and her wings shivered. Once the glow disappeared, Ruby could feel the King piece washing through her till it left a subtle warmth. It did not give her a boost in her power. The chess pieces could only do so much and the King piece was meant to gain authority of her peerage. Or, rather for dragons in this case, Ruby's pride.

Now that left 15 other Wyvern Pieces for Ruby's pride, and future two more prides when she considered someone strong enough to start one. They were of course the traditional pieces. Two Bishops that provide a boost to draconic power above the norm. Two Knights that will grant reincarnated dragons greater flight skills. Two Rooks that grant whoever possesses them a closer connection to their fighting instincts. And eight Pawns that gave no effect whatsoever accept the perks of what dragons hold anyway.

How strange. As Ruby examined the Wyvern Pieces as she she placed them on the table in the traditional chess setup, she noted that a particular few were different from the rest. Her Queen piece for example had blue gems studded into the body and blue veins protruding out. The head was a solid blue marble crowned in silver. Odd it reminded Ruby so much of darling Vali, bringing a blush to her and her tail to shake rhythmically. Sweet, powerful, handsome Vali. Her Vali.

...!

"Are you fucking kidding me!?" Ruby thought outloud, emphasis on 'loud'. "When did I start thinking Vali like that?! More importantly, why does my Queen piece look like this?!"

Ddraig decided to join in. [It's come to the point where inanimate objects see your infatuation of the Lucifer descendant. As always, they're right.]

"You do realize from now on that I will not stop to find some way to inflict agony upon you? " Ruby threatened, not bothering to use mental communication.

[I know you will.] Ddraig agreed too readily.

"When did you get a new set of balls?" Ruby demanded.

[You try fighting Yahweh and see how you end up.] Ddraig retorted. [Moving on, what you have there are Mutation Pieces. It doesn't take a genius to know what they are like.]

Ruby didn't say anything else and was content to putting her Wyvern Pieces into a black box with a red velvet interior. Multplie slots were built in one for each piece. Once she was done, Ruby sealed it shut by scratching in the dragon word for "lock" onto the lid. The only way to open it is to speak "open" in dragon tongue.

That was when Yang made her untimely entrance into Ruby's room without knocking first. Typical sister. Ruby cursed herself for forgetting to lock the door. More the fact that Ruby had left her room very spartan, which will trigger Yang's decoration freak out. The light of the outside hall illuminated half of Ruby's room, with a long shadow cast from Yang.

"Hey sis, will - Holy fucking shit!" Yang swore outloud and almost losing her balance from the shock of seeing Ruby in her semi-dragon form. "Fuck, sorry about that. I just didn't expect you to look like that. I'm still getting used to the fact you're a dragon."

"It's fine, sis." Ruby brushed off. "Your response is actually pretty harmless. A human on Earth would've mistaken me for a devil and exorcists from the church would've hunted me."

"Wow." Yang responded, twisting the tip of her feet on the ground. "Sooo... I was thinking that you should... go to the dance?"

"Excuse me, but why?" Ruby inquired.

"Well, I thought you needed to wind down." Yang reasoned.

Ruby was about to refuse to go, to say it was a waste of time. Yet, Ruby thought back to the night on the docks where she reflected on herself. If she refused this, Ruby would be confirming her pushing herself away from everyone. Just because Ruby was strong didn't mean that she had to deny their presence. That was sickening to think of for Ruby, that she would turn into something that rejected even her family. Introvert or not, Ruby made up her mind.

"Okay, I'll go." Ruby accepted, shifting back to her human form.

"Look Ruby, I really think - did you just say 'yes'?" Yang exclaimed incredulously.

Ruby blinked. "Yes, I agreed to go. What were you expecting?"

"I had a lot of things to bribe you to go." Yang admitted, which stabbed at Ruby's heart that she was that reclusive that Yang had to bribe her. "But that's awesome anyway. Now we have to find you a new dress..."

Yang trailed off when she noted the saddened expression on Ruby's face. Frowning slightly, Yang approached the dragoness and, with motherly care, caressed her cousin's cheek.

"What's wrong, Rubes?" Yang asked softly. "You know I'm here for you."

"But why for me, Yang?" Ruby said sadly, a forlorn look in her eyes. "Do I really deserve it?"

"Rubes, of course you do." Yang answered honestly. Why would she not stay loyal to one of the closest people in the world to her?

"Am I an asshole?" Ruby asked seriously. "I feel like I'm pushing everyone away, and I... I don't want to do that."

"I'll admit," Yang answered honestly, "you are not the most ideal person to socialize. You are reclusive and maybe introverted, but you are not a hateful asshole, Rubes. You deserve to be my sister. You have your moments, and a lot of them. Like that time you and Qrow cut the cake with a scythe on one of your birthdays, and you accidentally cut the table as well. We all couldn't stop laughing. And then how giddy you were making your own weapons. It was the cutest thing I have ever seen, and over weapons of all things. Then was the-"

Yang's dialog was cut short when Ruby suddenly pulled the blonde into a tight hug. As if the moment she'd let go, Ruby would be left alone forever. At first caught off guard, Yang gladly returned the gesture. There was a little difficulty since Yang was not used to having Ruby taller than her. Nonetheless, the duo enjoyed the moment in their embrace.

"Sis," Ruby muttered, and Yang could feel a tear dry on her shoulder, "don't leave me. Please don't ever leave me."

"I'd never dream of such a thing." Yang assured with the truth in her tone because she meant it.

Yes indeed, Ruby will make sure that they are together forever as a family. That was a promise.

After a few minutes, Ruby was the one to pull back, but her expression was much more soft. Yang smiled that in there was still the sister she loved, and she was shining brightly. And she had agreed to the dance without persuasion. Her and Bikou's plan can then go along swimmingly as long as they play their cards right. She had to stop herself from squealing in anticipation.

"However," Ruby interjected Yang's thoughts, "I have my own dress tailored personally."

Now it was Yang to turn to confusion. "Wait, you are going to 'make' a dress? When did you learn to do that?"

Ruby smirked. "You misunderstand. I have a friend that is going to make for me."

"And who is this 'friend' you are referring to?" Yang asked skeptically.

Ruby responded with the most feral-like grins her cheeks could muster at their limit. "Only the best in all things."

(Dimensional Gap)

Great Red was doing a loop going into a portal explosion when he was suddenly hit with a sneeze, causing him to crash into a rock formation. He roared in fury at who the fuck messed up his stunt.

(Later; At the Party)

Yang was growing nervous as the time ticked by. She was volunteering to greet the guests to the dance party, yet her greeting smile was strained. The session had started thirty minutes ago, and yet Ruby was nowhere in sight. Meanwhile, Bikou was giving Yang wary glances as he tried to keep Vali present in the dance party.

Speaking of the Lucifer descendant, he was a real sight for ogling. He wore silver suit over a black shirt with dress pants with black cuffs with the Lucifer family crest complete with a blue tie. His hair was combed to the left side of his head, adding to more to that handsome face. Yet with all the clothing, his muscles still seemed to outline them, and had created literal eye hearts in most of the female guests that were staring at him with nothing but lust. Yang swore she saw a few faint with nosebleeds. Yet Vali stood imposing in an aura of supremacy, even more than Gen. Ironwood. Like an emperor.

"Am I too late?" The voice of Ruby snapped Yang back to attention.

Immediately her jaw dropped at the sight of her cousin. If Vali was an emperor of hunks, Ruby was an empress of sexual beauty. The first that caught her attention was Ruby's once long, spiky hair tamed and tied into a braid running down the front of her left shoulder. Crimson lipstick shined off her once pink lips curled into a smile. Her porcelain skin was perfect, almost shining even, thanks to careful manipulation of her scales.

Then was her dress, a cross of royal nobility and sexual beauty. The dress was fully crimson with a black interior. The sleeves were basically two red ribbons wrapping down her arm and ending at her wrist where an emerald nailed them down. It was held onto Ruby's shoulders by two golden studs in the shape of dragon heads with a ruby rose in their jaws. It held up the torso part that left the top of Ruby's cleavage, her neck, and collar exposed. As it went down, the dress opened up to show off her toned stomach while leaving the upper part of her back exposed as well. The dress would then fall down her legs like a red curtain embroidered with golden designs of fire and dragon scales that fit perfectly to the royal appeal. Yet the gown also parted at the sides to reveal her toned legs. At the bottom, Yang could barely notice black high-heels with red soles and a golden heels.

"What do you think?" Ruby asked in a victorious smirk.

"Not fair." Whimpered Yang, a storm cloud of depression looming over her head.

Ruby did not know how to respond to her cousin's dilemma. So all she could do was watch Yang with a sweatdrop. Eventually, Yang made a gesture to welcome Ruby in, but it was done very miserably. As soon as Ruby walked past her sister, all eyes turned to her and mouths gaped. While the young men openly drooled, the girls fired venomous glares of jealousy at Ruby. The Red Dragon Empress paid them no mind like a simple breeze. She was going to make this dance party fun, if maybe at the expense of others.

Her nose caught the scent of strawberries and her head whipped to the direction of the snack table. The scents were coming from the punch bowl. Her tongue automatically licked her lips in anticipation. She wasted no time casually, yet quickly making her way to the table and grabbing herself two of the largest cups filled to the brim with the juice. Anything with strawberries was worth the effort.

But as Ruby turned around, she bumped what felt like a wall, which was a first for her. She was so caught off guard, Ruby had dropped the cups to the floor. Thankfully, her dress did not get splashed on. Her eyes turned into slits automatically locked onto the person who had ruined her strawberry heaven drink. Only for green to meet blue once again and all anger just simple vanished.

"V-Vali!?" Ruby (did not) squeak.

They could not break eye contact with each other, their emotions running two wildly within them. Vali couldn't muster any of his composure as of this moment. Virtually all of his emotions and thoughts were always on Ruby ever since they first met, and it was building up instead of going down. He did not know what to say, and Ruby was no different.

'Perfect.' Vali thought involuntarily.

BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP BUMP!

The sound of the outside world was drowned by the sound of their hearts hammering in their chests. Their nerves starting to get the better of them as cold sweat beads were going down their necks. They were supposed to be rivals, yet all this anxiety was building to something completely different.

"I shouldn't have come here." Ruby muttered at the end of her nerves, and with a turn of her heel she made her way for the exit.

Off in the back, Yang and Bikou were panicking in nervous sweats.

Vali's first thought was to let her be, but that was somehow immediately squashed with doubt. His mind drifted back to the day Bikou had gone serious in a long while and talking down to Albion of all things. His words repeated in Vali's head: 'What do you want?'

The White Dragon Emperor has always lived up to this one simple ideal that fighting strong opponents was there is to life. That fighting his 'destined' rival was to be his ultimate goal. Albion fully supported this notion that Vali wanted, more so that it would help in the fight against Ddraig.

For the first time, Vali could see there was more to life than fighting as he led himself to believe. All these sensations had the same exhilaration that Vali feels in the heat of the fight, but were entirely different. Dare he even say they were even euphoric in comparison. He wanted to see where this sensation can lead him, and so Vali allowed his own inner dragon to take a little charge.

Ruby had made it only several paces before a hand grabbed her own. She froze at the contact, yet didn't attack whoever laid a hand on her because she unconsciously knew that despite never having felt his skin that it was Vali. The Red Dragon Empress would've still punched her rival, but what stopped her aggression was the feel in it. Vali's hold held no hostility, expressing his tough yet soft hand that held her own tenderly.

Ever so slowly, Ruby turned back to the silver-haired hybrid, his lips set in a straight line. He pulled his hand closer, which just that alone was making her heart jumping. It was straining Ruby to keep these insane 'urges' in check in Vali's presence, but it hurt in a way every time she denied them and her willpower was slipping. Unintentionally, Ruby's legs followed Vali to the center of the floor. At this point, her own body was trying its best to stay close to Vali.

"Ruby," Vali spoke so softly that Ruby couldn't control the soft rumble escaping her lips, "will you dance with me?"

Ruby's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates. Vali wanted to dance with her?! What was his game!? What ploy was there to give him an edge?! Those were the sort of thoughts running her so-called rational part of her brain. But the more primal part that was quickly getting louder and more in control only had one question.

Did Vali really mean it?

"I," Vali said, stumbling on his words, "want to see where this... can lead us."

Ruby quirked a curious eyebrow. What did he mean by - ! C-Could Vali have been subjected to the sensations as well? Was it because they were both holding the instincts and attitudes of a dragon? Yet those wondering thoughts were washed away in what Ruby can vaguely recall as joy seeing the truth in words and eyes. Those brilliant sapphire eyes that Ruby admitted she wanted to stare at for all eternity.

So Ruby took the plunge and indulged herself locking that eye contact. The barrier between primal want and thought cracked as Ruby let herself go. Surprisingly, Ruby did not regret it one bit. It felt like Ruby was bathing in fire the more she stayed in Vali's aura, and for a dragon that was pure bliss. She did not resist Vali's tender hold as he held out her right arm and settled his left hand at her waist in a traditional dance.

(A/N I have no fucking clue which ballroom dance they do in the dance party at the beginning.)

'I wouldn't mind him going lower.' Whether that was her instincts or herself talking Ruby didn't care as the dragons started their dance.

Right. That was the only word Vali can describe this development that he was sure was going to change his life. It felt so right holding this gorgeous woman's hand and waist with a tenderness he remembered from his own mother. It felt so right and so good to swing Ruby side-to-side in the rhythm of their dance. It was so breathtaking to watch her twirl by the hold of his hand above her and coming right back to him. The entire time, their eyes never left each other.

They were in their own little world. There was no one from the outside world to concern, nor Albion or Ddraig to interfere. This was their moment for them to be together instead of following so-called destiny of a rivalry long past or any competition to see who was better. Two equals enjoying the company of one another.

The more they danced, the more they allowed to let go of the rationality and flow with their instincts. At some point, Ruby had leaned her head against Vali's shoulder, who was contented to just relish in Ruby's sweet scent and alluring aura. Ruby had decided that she liked the beating of his hammering heart that was in sync with her own beating against her chest in ecstasy.

"I," Ruby said, "wouldn't mind... getting to know you more."

If getting know him meant getting close to him Ruby was find with that. If there was one thing she learned at the dance is that being close to Vali made her entire being light up in joy.

When Vali heard those words, he couldn't help his blood pumping and heart jumping in joy, even if the reason still eluded him. His eyes turned into slits and he rested his chin on Ruby's left shoulder with their cheeks grazing each other. He wanted to be as close as possible to that sweet scent of roses and strawberries that Ruby was releasing that depicted Vali of a piece of paradise. They settled in a slow dance to relish in the other's presence that was so compatible and addictive. Ruby had closed her eyes with a smile on her face and allowed her body to go through the rhythm with Vali.

Around them, their dance caught the attention of the rest of dance floor. Boys and girls glared at Vali and Ruby in jealousy, but they could not deny how right the two looked dancing together. In the background where Bikou and Yang were dancing to keep on eye on the couple, the latter was about to explode in a squeal while the monkey Yokai was giving Vali a thumbs-up. However, an ashen-haired criminal did not read the atmosphere and decided to try to steal Vali away, if only to keep up her cover. He wasn't half-bad either.

"Excuse me." Cinder said tapping Vali's shoulder, too sure of herself to . The silver-haired Lucifer only gave one eye Cinder because the human deserved nothing more for interrupting him, but he'll hear her out. "Could I have a dance with you?"

And she had fucked up the worst way possible. Ruby's motions completely stopped and Vali could feel the air around them heat up. Everyone except those such as Arthur (dancing with Weiss because he didn't deny a lady when the heiress asked him to the dance), Kuroka who was watching from above, and Bikou. The dragoness' eye snapped open and her emerald eyes were lit with rage. That very rage that broke the dam and rationality was washed away.

"I'm sorry, but go find someone else." Vali denied politely, but he could not help this feeling of annoyance and irritation at the woman that dared to take him away from Ruby's aura and scent.

"Oh but I insist." Cinder said seductively, inching her hand closer to his shoulder. "I can be very... alluring."

How dare this - this bitch try to steal him away from her?! This whore, this slut dared to take Vali away from her?! To even touch her Vali!? Vali was hers and any other woman is shit in comparison. Her Vali. Her Vali! HER VALI!

SNAP!

'He's mine.' Ruby repeated her thoughts, ever so much fueling her rage. 'He's mine. He's mine, mine, mine. Mine, mine, mine! MINE!'

Green eyes locked onto amber, and Cinder was completely frozen by the biggest killing intent she had ever felt. Those eyes pulled Cinder into a dark world where fires of unending fury burned all around her. Looming over the false Maiden was a dragon, projecting a powerful aura of dominance her knees gave out. She didn't beg for her life as the dragon chomped down on her head. That was when Cinder returned to reality and looked at the couple with Ruby holding Vali tighter.

"He's mine, slut!" Snarled Ruby, her teeth barred threateningly and not bothering to hide her draconic voice. "Do you hear me!? MINE!"

Cinder had walked as fast as she did in the most calm manner as she was internally sweating. It wasn't like that she was scared for her life. No, that was certainly not it. She just didn't want to cause a scene. Yeah, that was it, no need to cause a ruckus over a dance partner. But Cinder Fall will not forget this from that woman. Whoever she may be, Cinder will make sure she pays.

How utterly foolish. Let's us all laugh at her foolishness to think that Cinder can do anything.

Ruby's dragon eyes and killing intent did not leave Cinder until she was out of the building. A chuckle broke Ruby out of her 'murder mode' and silver pupils glanced quizzically to Vali. The dragon/devil hybrid Lucifer was letting off soft chuckles directed at Ruby.

"What?" Ruby asked.

"I think I like you when you act possessive." Vali quipped, his smirk truly living up to his family name.

And Vali had to admit that Ruby could make the cutest whine when she buried her face in Vali's shoulder in embarrassment. Meanwhile, Bikou and Yang were getting as many photos as possible to archive this momentous occasion.

In one chapter, a tsundere as turned into a yandere. Holy fucking shit, what have I unleashed?!

So far I am doing okay in my new life at college, though I know a shit storm is coming soon. It always happens with academics and I'm going to be buried in studies. But back to the point of this chapter, which marks the beginning of a very violent yet deep relationship between Ruby and Vali. Maybe lemons in the future, but I am kind of worried about getting flagged about that. Tell me if that's a thing or not because I've been doing this for a year and I don't want to quit for a long time.

And on a more personal note, if any of you are artists I would appreciate some fan art of this. I'm not asking, but I love to see like how this Ruby looks from my description of her or a drawing of Ruby and Vali.
