Painful Than Thorns
(I take no credit for the photo)
"This place again?"
~Y/n POV~
After I was engulfed in a blinding light I allowed my eyes to adjust. But I then noticed that I was back at my old home. "This can't be REAL?" I said still confused at what was going on. I started to walk inside and as I made it to the door I opened it. As I walked inside I started to hear the voice of a person crying. I walked to the living room, and I noticed how was crying. It was a young Ruby. "This can't be real."
"What's wrong Ruby?" I got surprised at the voice and I noticed that it was a young me.
Ruby then looked at the other me with tears in her eyes. "Big Sis Yang doesn't want to play with me today... Can you play with me Big Sis?"
The younger me smile but it was a smile that I haven't seen in a long time. Like the time that I was actually happy to be apart of this family. "Okay but only till Mom, & Dad come back."
Ruby then smiled. "Oh thank you Big Sis thank you! Come on?" She said as she started to play, and smile with the other me.
"That's right I remember that day. Yang was so busy training with Dad, that she couldn't play with Ruby so I had to play with her. Took my whole day but it made her happy... But that changes nothing." But I tried to not let that cloud my judgement. I still HATED her.
I looked at them as they disappeared and I was transported to the second floor of the House. "This must have been the day that I left?"
I started hearing more crying and I noticed that it was coming from Ruby's room. I opened the door and I noticed that Ruby was curled up in a ball crying. "Ruby?" I turned to the voice and I noticed that it was a young Yang calling out to her.
She then got close to her and she rubbed her head. "Don't worry Little Sister will find her. I promise after all she's our Sister." Just hearing her say that starting to piss me off.
"Our system?" I turned my attention to Ruby. I then noticed that she immediately slapped Yang across the face making her fall on the floor and surprisingly.
"What was that-"
"SHUT UP! If it wasn't because of YOU! I would still have my big Sister! But no because of YOU, MOM, and DAD! She ran away! And not only them but Raven, & Uncle Qrow did that to her!" I was speechless more than anything but I wasn't going to change my mind.
Yang looked like she was about to cry. "What are you saying Ruby?"
"What I'm saying is! That as long as my REAL SISTER comes back! I will never forgive YOU! YOU FAKE SISTER!" She looked at Ruby in disbelief. Ruby then ran away and I just decided to follow her, to a shed that was at the back of the house. I noticed how she got inside and closed the door.
I passed throw the door and I looked at her crying. I noticed that she took out something from her pocket. When I looked I noticed it was a piece of broken glass. Don't tell me? "If Big Sis is going to have scars then." She then took a moment to compose herself. She looked at her wrist, and she started cutting her self. She started to cry as blood dripped to the ground. "It hurts but this is for you Big Sis." She said on a low pitch tone. I was shook and surprised and all I did was simply looked at her. "..." I closed my eyes. But when I snapped out of it I noticed that I was still strangling her, so I release my grip.
~3rd POV~
Ruby fell on her knees and she started to cough and catching her breath. She then looked at Y/n with sadness in her eyes. "Why?" Y/n then got on one knee and she grabbed Ruby's wrist while Ruby looked at her confused. She then raised her sleeves, and much to her surprise she had several cuts on her wrist's. Ruby then looked away. "I'm sorry Sis." Y/n noticed tears falling.
"Tell me Ruby why did you do it?"
Ruby remained silent for a brief moment. "The truth is I never wanted to betray you. I wanted you to stay I wanted them to stop. But a day before you left Yang told me that If I didn't do as I was told. She was going to do the same thing that they did to you, to me and me as a child... I... I!" She started to tear up. She put her arms over her eyes.
"I didn't want to lose you! The day that you left I was heart broken! I'm sorry Big Sis! I'm sorry!" She then started to cry.
Y/n sigh, and smiled at her as she wrapped her arms around her. She then rubbed the back of Ruby's head. "I... I can't trust you right now... Yet? But I'll give you one more chance at least to you. So do me a favor stop punishing yourself okay..." She looked at her eye to eye, and she smiled. "Ruby."
"Promise?" Ruby said and Y/n nodded. Ruby then wrapped her arms across Y/n's chest.
Y/n then gently unwrapped her arms and dried Ruby's tears. She then smiled at her. "Promise."
Ruby extended her left arm and she took out her pinky. And Y/n connected her pinky with hers. "Cross my heart and hope to die." Y/n said as she cross an x where her heart is and she smiled at her.
"Steal a cookie from the jar." Ruby responded with a gentle smile.
As soon as Y/n got up she started to feel unease. "Anyway you should go back to your team?" Ruby nodded.
"Okay see you later Big Sis."
Ozpin sigh. "Winer Y/n Goodwitch!"
Several students started applauding. Ivary, & Neo sigh out of relief while Layla, & Zahra smiled and applaud with other students.
Blake looked as her leader started walking back to them. "I'm glad things went well." She said as she looked at Weiss. How was applauding at Y/n's victory. "If you say so?" She said as she looked at Y/n.
As Y/n walked away her nails went back to normal, and the diamond on her four head disappeared. But her semblance remained activated with only her blood red eyes.
Ozpin looked at her and he relaxed because the bloodlust was gone. He then thought to himself. "Y/n you can't be..."
Glynda smiled as she felt happy that no more blood had to be spilled. "Thank goodness. I'm proud of you Y/n."
~Lili POV~
As Y/n walked away I started to get annoyed. "She gets forgiven that was so BORING! I wanted to see blood, her guts spilled across the floor! But... I did have a great show. Looking at Y/n defeat her other family. Hehe." But I didn't have anything to do around hire. So I opened a portal and I walked inside, as it started to close I smiled with excitement. "It's not over yet Y/n. The fun is only starting. Hehe."
~3rd POV~ Timeskip shower room~
Y/n was taking a shower and letting her body relax. She then noticed that by the reflection in the clean wall. Her semblance was still active. "What the?" As she tried to deactivate her semblance, her chest ache with 10 times the normal amount. She feel on her knees, she placed her right arm on her chest, and she started to breathe heavily. But it quickly subsided and her eyes went back to normal. As she calm her breathing and she put her back to the wall. "What is going on?... I should consider talking to Mom but still." She placed her right arm on her chest.
She let the cold water hit her face. But she then looked at her necklace and she smiled, knowing that it was all over but... Deep down she felt uneasy. "Why do I keep having a bad feeling." When she finished taking a shower she walked back to her team.
~Timeskip Y/N POV~
As I was walking back to class I started feeling like someone was looking at me. But I quickly snapped out of it as I was met with several students cheering, and clapping. I smiled as I walked back to my team. As I got closer people started talking.
"That was great!" A boy responded.
"She's so strong." A girl responded.
As they continued praising me I started to get embarrassed but I managed to make it to my team. But I was met with more praises from team JNPR, CFVY, Blake, & Weiss. It was embarrassing but nothing I can't handle.
I then seat close to Blake, & Layla and I responded without looking at them. "I... For now I gave Ruby one more chance." Blake nodded understanding my predicament, and Layla gave a warm smile.
"As long as your okay with it then that's fine. But what about Yang?" Layla said. So I simply shook my head. "Okay then." That was all she said as she turned to look at the arena. And she didn't ask any more questions but in reality I couldn't care less about Yang, & her family of Demons. But Ruby? She was different than them.
~Timeskip 8:30 p.m.~
As I was making my way back to the dorm but I stopped halfway to my room. As I noticed that Yang was standing in front of my door. She then turned her attention at me. "Why?" She said with tears in her eye's.
"Why what?" I responded coldly towards her.
"WHY my hair! WHY did you cut my hair!?" She shouted but I didn't care.
But I sigh out of her sheer stupidity. "You can call it Payback." I said as I pointed to my hair.
She then clenched her fist. "Payback. Payback! I never meant to cut your hair a long time ago! I never wanted this! It's all OUR family's-"
"DON'T FUCK WITH ME!" I shouted and she stopped talking. I then responded. "They're your family! Not mine! So stop acting like a sister! Because we all know that you were never my sister! You were the mistake of a one night stand!" I raised my voice at her. Which caught the attention of students who were just getting to their dorms. The more I talk to her the more I felt my blood boil.
"You're going to pay... I swear it." She said with great ferocity.
I chuckled at what she said. "Is that so then do something. I already beat you once what makes you think I can't do it again." I smirked at her which only cost her to get more agitated.
"I'll-"
"You'll what exactly?"
As I turn to the voice I noticed that it was Layla.
"Stay out of this! You stupid BITCH!"
"Such vulgar words you have." I noticed that Yang's eyes turned red. But Layla remain calm and kept her composure. "What would you do if Y/n where to forgive you? Would you punish her like when she was a child?"
"Stay out off my problems-"
"Then why did you do it!" Layla shouted that was new she hardly never shouts.
"It was." Yang said as she lowered her head.
"If you are going to say it was your parents fault. Then I would suggest you stay quiet." Yang didn't respond this time.
~Layla POV~
I sigh as I looked at Yang. "I have a great idea. How about you and me fight?" Y/n looked at me confused at what I just said and I can understand. Yang is stronger and taller than me. But what Y/n can't see I can. "What do you say Yang Xiao Long?"
~3rd POV~
Yang looked at Layla with a smirk on her face. "Fine then tomorrow."
"That's fine by me." Layla responded back with her calm demeanor.
"Your going to regret fighting me." Yang said with a smile on her face.
Layla stared at Yang with a smile. "Are you sure it's you that is saying that, and not the person next to you?"
Yang didn't respond as she walked past Y/n, they both exchange death glare as Yang walked away.
Y/n then turned her attention to Layla. "Are you sure about this Layla?"
Layla nodded as she looked at her. "Hey Y/n can you do me a favor?" She said as she put both her arms behind her back. Y/n nodded.
~Timeskip~
Yang was walking alone through the forest she stopped and she looked over her shoulder. She then noticed that in one of the trees, the small Y/n was smiling and leaning as she looked at her, which only pissed her off. She then clenched both her arms and she walked towards her. "Hehe. Hahaha." Y/n started laughing.
As soon as Yang got close she quickly punched Y/n and it cost the tree to fall down. But as the smoke cleared she noticed that Y/n was gone. "Just SHUT UP and leave me alone." She then looked at the broken tree. "Dame it all." She then noticed that Raven was behind her, which only pissed her off even more. "SHUT UP! DON'T TALK DON'T SAY ANYTHING! I'M NOT IN THE MOOD TO DEAL WITH YOU! I DON'T EVEN WANT TO LOOK AT YOU OR EVEN SEE YOU SO GET LOST!" As she passed Raven.
Raven looked at her and she was on the verge of tears. But she remain strong.
As Yang walked away she told her self. "Why am I so pissed?"
-Y/N Dorm-
As Y/n looked at the ceiling she clenched the necklace close to her chest. "... Tomorrow." And just like that everything faded to black.
