(Friday)

"Come on Issei! Imagine of all the beautiful girls we'll be able to peep on" Matsuda said. "Murayama: B84-W70-H82 cm. Katase: B78.5-W65-H79 cm..." Motohama
listed the sizes of the Kendo Club like he was reading a dictionary.

"Is size really all you think about" Issei sighed. Thinking back to the lithe, white haired girl 'he' knew from where he came from. "Oh, yeah. you're a loli-con whose into chicks with white hair" Matsuda said, "Just know that I've already claimed the school mascot". "I never said I was a loli-con!" Issei shouted, "Lithe means thin. Not whatever messed up stuff you're into".

With that, Issei stormed off. After reaching a spot 'he' felt was secluded enough, 'he' sat down, and sighed.

"Why do I even hang out with them, pretend to be like them. Yang would kill them, before lecturing me, Blake wouldn't approve, and Weiss..." 'He' didn't even want to think about what would happen if Weiss found out the kind of people 'he' was hanging out with.

"Why do I even pretend to be a boy again" Issei muttered. She had only been at the school for a week, in this world for about a year. She had originaly done it as a disguise in case any of Salem's underlings were here as well, but now it was because... She guessed she had grown to enjoy it.

Cross-Dressing wasn't exactly the most common thing in Remnant, but it wasn't the worst. Laughter would usually be the response there, although a lot less extreme then the reaction to Jaune's. Here, though... She was almost afraid to reveal herself at this point.

She supposed she could ask her Mother, at least the one from this world, about what she could do, but that was about it.

"Where are your friends" She heard a demanding voice, well... demand. Issei turned to the source, and saw the entire Kendo Club carrying their wooden swords, Shinai, if she remembered correctly. She hadn't exactly looked into Japanese weapons, as they just weren't as cool as say... a rapier with a dust-revolver on the hilt, a grenade launcher hammer, or a coffee mug-flamethrower-bat hybrid.

"Beats me" Issei said, before muttering "Crap, I made a pun".

The Kendo members raised their swords, threatening Issei. "Look. Last I saw them, We got into a fight, and I came here. They must have gone to spy on you after I left" Issei tried to reason, but was beaten down anyways. Issei kept her aura from protecting her body.

"There's no question about it. I'm done hiding" Issei muttered as she layed in the grass, slowly healing her body with her aura, "I'm going to just be myself". Issei sat up, and started walking home.

(Monday)

"Where the heck is Issei" Matsudo groaned, tapping his foot. "He's likely just slept in. We should get to class" Motohama reasoned.

Inside class, they noticed an odd girl sitting in Issei's seat. She had dark red hair that lightened up at the tips. Her eyes were silver, although they could be confused for grey if you didn't know the difference. She was wearing the typical femal uniform, although she was wearing combat boots, and had a red, tattered cape on her back, held up around her neck by a metal rose emblem.

"Who is she" Matsudo asked. "I don't know, but her size isn't anything noteworthy. The only thing she has going for her are her eyes and hair, and even those aren't too appealing" Motohama said.

"Hello Cla- oh. We seem to have a new student. Would you mind introducing yourself" The teacher asked. "I'm not new. I just decided to stop dressing as a boy. You all called me Issei, but my names actually Ruby" She said, leaving everyones mouths to hang open.

"That was... not the reaction I was expecting" Ruby muttered. "This has to be some sort of perverted plan to get into the girls locker room" One of the girls shouted. "You can so a body check next time I go into one, okay. Will that make you happy" Ruby said. No one said anything, but Ruby knew that they accepted. As a team leader, she had gotten good at reading people.

(Tuesday)

Ruby entered the gym's locker room, rather than just going into a nearby bathroom as she had done prior. She was almost immediatly pinned to the ground, despite her intial attempt to outmanuever her attackers. "fudge. I've gotten slow" Ruby muttered.

She had been stripped down to basically nothing, her inspectors being kind enough to leave her in her underwear. She hadn't worn anything on her chest, with her not being big enough to require one.

(I don't know what determines whether girls wear a bra or not. Just accept this reasoning)

"Holy shit. She is a girl" One of her inspectors stated. "Can I put my clothes on please" Ruby asked, her face as red as her name. Once again, nobody said anything.

(Saturday)

ooooooohhh

Ruby lunged foward, jabbing the bottom of her scythe into the current tree she was practicing on.

red like roses fills my dreams and brings me to the place you rest

"Well, Well. What do we have here" A female voice said from trees.

white is cold and always yearning
burdened by a royal test

Ruby quickly pulled her scythe out of the tree, spun it around for good measure, and positioned it under her right arm, ready to swing it and start a combo.

black the beast descends from shadows

Ruby closed her eyes, and breathed in through her nose, and then out her mouth. She opened them up, and continued the breathing pattern.

in 1 2 3
out 1 2 3
in 1 2 3
out 1 2 3

Ruby sharpened her gaze, looking around for her supposed attacker.

yellow beauty burns

She noticed a white glow quickly making it's way to her face, so she rolled the right.

Gold

'What am I supposed to do' Ruby thought to herself, 'I can't see her, and I can't exactly start a fire here for light'.

"Cut all the trees down" Shoulder-Yang said.

"Dodge, and wait for her to make her move" Shoulder-Weiss said.

"..." Shoulder-Blake didn't have any input on the matter.

Ruby shook her head, sending her imaginary team-mates away. Although she decided to follow Shoulder-Weiss' advice. Weiss was smart, and Ruby trusted her partner... even if her brain came up with all of the idea's, rather than her team.

Of course, the hard part was surviving until she could enrage the attacker. She dodged another white object by jumping over it.

Taunting was more of Yang's thing, and even then, she didn't taunt often, but it was Ruby's best bet.

"Are you sure you're able to aim those? You couldn't hit the broad side of a barn" Ruby said.

I couldn't take it, couldn't stand another minute

Ruby rolled to the left, dodging as a blonde haired girl in a maids outfit rushed at her with a pink spear in hand.

couldn't bear another day without you in it

Ruby took this opportunity, firing Crescent Rose for the recoil to send the shaft of her weapon into the girls ribs.

all of the joy I had known for all my life

Mittelt crashed into a tree, and comicaly had a pine-cone fall on her head.

Was stripped away from me the minute that you died

Mittelt stood up, and summoned another spear, throwing it at Ruby, whom shot her scythe to dodge, having not landed yet.

to have you in my life was all I ever wanted

Ruby aimed above her, shooting a sniper round into the heavens, sending her to the ground.

But now without you I'm a soul forever haunted

Ruby, however, was not slowed down by the need to land, and, however, burst into rose petals, and charged at the killer maid like a bullet.

Can't help but feel that I had taken you for granted

Ruby picked up Mittelt, and then threw her out of the rose vortex, where she crashed into another tree.

No way in hell that I can ever comprehend this

Mittelt stood up, and spread her wings, which she used to charge at Ruby.

I wasn't dreaming when they told me you were gone

Ruby aimed behind her, and fired another round to recoil her scythe into the incoming attack.

I was wide awake and feeling that they had to be wrong

Ruby vanished into rose petals, before appearing right behind Mittelt

How could you leave me when you swore that you would stay

Crescent Rose was just barely able to be blocked by Mittelts pink spear, which kept Mittelt alive.

Now I'm trapped inside a nightmare every single f'ing day

Ruby raised her scythe behind her to shoot, only to hear the harrowing click of an empty cartridge.

It's like a movie but there's not a happy ending

Ruby ejected the empty cartridge, and reached for her last thing of gun-powder rounds. The ones she used for mobility. She only had an Ice cartridge after this, and Ruby was hoping to save that.

Every scene fades black and there's no pretending

Mittelt raised her pink spear, preparing to charge foward.

This little fairy tale doesn't seem to end well

Ruby barely had time to react to Mittelt's attack, and now Mittelts spear was caught between the two crescents of her beauty.

There's no night in shining armour who will wake me from this spell

Ruby dropped her scythe, opting to use her semblance to get into position to kick her in the ribs, which she did.

I know you didn't plan this

Mittelt was caught off gaurd, and lost her grip on her pink spear.

You tried to do what's right

Ruby used the few seconds she had bought to take the spear from out of Crescent Rose.

But in the middle of this madness

Ruby picked up her weapon, twirled it a few times, and shot herself foward.

I'm the one (I'm the one[I'm the one])

Ruby swung her scythe down at the body of her attacker.

Who's left to win this fight

The girl was cut in half. Ruby didn't like having to kill, but this girl was a threat, and likely wasn't the only one.

A scream of agony distracted Ruby from her thoughts. Ruby didn't even need to go over what could be wrong. She burst into rose petals, and rushed to the noise, which she found was in the 'abandoned' church, not too far from her training grounds she had been using.

Ruby sliced her way through, only to nearly vomit as the metallic smell blood filled her nostrils. There were maybe three bodies here, but Ruby noticed a staircase which lead to a basement.

Ruby ran down the stair, and saw Motohama fighting someone. The former had an odd red gauntlet on their right arm.

The weird guy, who reminded Ruby of Tyrian, raised his gun up, and pulled back the trigger.

Ruby jumped foward, deflecting the bullet off of Crescent Roses compact form.

Red like roses

Ruby activated her scythe, and held it over her shoulder as it expanded from a simple red, black, and grey box, into a mechanical beauty larger than she was.

fills my head with dreams and finds me

"The Shitty Devil has some Shitty Devil Lover friends. How wonderful" Freed seemed to be in heaven.

Always closer

"does every evil group have that one insane person, or do I just have bad luck" Ruby asked, genuinly curious.

To the emptiness and sadness

"Is- I mean Ruby. What are you doing here" Motohama asked.

That has come to take the place of you

"Well, I'm saving your butt, I guess. so there's that" Ruby said.

"Enough talk, Shitty Devil and Shitty Devil Lover" Freed spat out, shooting at Ruby.

Ruby, however, had different plans. She burst into rose petals, appearing above Freed's head, preparing to kick him.

Freed moved out of the way, and tried to stab Ruby, who burst into rose petals, retreating to a safe distance.

At this point, Ruby exhaustion was becoming more and more evident. Even with all her training, it was still so draining to use her semblance so much.

[boost]

"Take this" Motohama shouted, punching the insane man very akwardly. Although he did have a lot of force behind it, a lot more than he seemed to put in it.

Ruby ejected the cartridge, and put it back on her belt, and took out the other cartridge from her belt. This one had a Schnee snowflake on it, with the word(s?) Ice-Flower on it. Ice was in Weiss White, while Flower was in Ruby Red. Weiss always said that Weiss White wasn't a color, but it was a joke and they both knew it.

Ruby popped the cartridge in, and aimed. The Ice Dust wouldn't be as powerful without Weiss' Glyphs to activate them early, and increase their velocity, but on a regular person, their current fire power should be more than sufficient.

Ruby took her shot, and watched as the bullet flew to her target, and hit Freed in the hip, which it tore through, although his position, along with where she had hit, meant that his only real threat was blood-loss and potential loss of his right legs function.

"Watch out" Motohama cried out, before Ruby watched something go through her stomach. A white spear, just like the one the maid-girl had been using.
