This is my first one 3 I'm a huge fan of RWBY and I love Rosewick :) Enjoy

It had been two years after the fight with Cinder that Ruby and her team won against them and she was just about to start her third year with Weiss, Blake and Yang. Things had quieted down a lot; except for the population of Grimm continued to grow regardless of what bad guy they had taken down. Mercury and Emerald had went to prison for a long time while Roman and Neo got out for cooperating with General Ironwood. Cinder was executed for the crimes she had committed over the years.

Blake was happy that the Faunus had equal as rights just as much as the humans did (the White Fang disbanded after Cinder's death). Weiss was on her way of fixing her family's company from the corruption her father had pulled the company down into. Yang was still looking into finding her mother and why she had left her all that long ago. Ruby continued to train hard to become the huntress she always dreamed she'd be.

Luckily Ruby had started taking up bounty missions that offered her money; her time spent out in the field made up for the classes she missed when she was gone. Yang had followed suit but she took a few less jobs than her little sister considering she wanted a social life. Ruby always tried for team missions but everyone was so busy with their own things it was near impossible.

Ruby spent her last summer training with her Uncle Qrow so she could go into the field alone and without protest from her sister or her other team mates. She had finished three missions with him when he deemed her worthy of going alone, putting her on the fast track to starting her third year almost a full fledge huntress. She smiled happily every time she came back from a mission whether she was scratched head to toe or completely unharmed. Ruby wanted to spend most of her life on the battle field or so she had thought.

Ruby had grown only a couple inches since her first year but her hair managed to reach the length to her bottom. The ends of her hair was still bright red and the rest black as night. She wore a black dress the reached mid-thigh length with red lace peeking out about an inch down. She wore thigh high black stockings and the same pair of boots she had her first year including her hood too. She wore a new black corset with red lace and strings.

Ruby had just finished her last missions to retrieve some stole files from a petty gang she chased down after they had been on the run for three days straight. She sat down at one of the restaurants and ordered a cheese burger, fries and large glass of milk. She leaned back in her seat pulling out her scroll to see a message from her uncle for completing her thirty fifth mission alone but none from her sister. Yang wouldn't message her while she was in the field unless it was important.

She started eating as fast as she could so she could get back to her new apartment she had bought ten missions ago and actually sleep in her bed for once. She liked being at Beacon but everyone was always gone and she felt lonely being there. Ruby sat her second glass of milk down when she saw something move between the buildings in a weird motion.

Ruby sat her glass down staring at the building. She didn't know what to think, but she got up and tipped her waiter and paid for her food. She made her way to the large gray building very slowly just in case someone decided to attack her. She poked her head when she saw two people in white and one of them was leaning on the wall.

Ruby scratched her head. She knew them alright but she thought maybe she was crazy; maybe like someone had cast an illusion and she was caught in the middle of it. The one leaning on the building was Roman Torchwick and the other was Neopolitan. Neopolitan looked worried flinging her hands making gestures at a rapid rate and to be honest Roman didn't look all that great either.

She noticed that their white coats weren't as white as she thought; they were covered in dirt stains and looked like blood too. Their clothes were riddled with clothes and they looked malnourished. Ruby frowned; this had upset her greatly because she didn't want anyone to look unhappy or sick or hurt.

Ruby took a deep breath and started walking towards them slowly; she didn't want to alarm them. Neopolitan turned around quickly looking at her with fearful eyes. Roman had barely looked at Ruby when he collapsed onto the pavement. Neopolitan jumped to his side shaking him furiously trying to wake him up but it didn't work.

"Is he ok?" Ruby asked, worried for him.

Neopolitan whipped out her sword from her parasol pointing at Ruby; her eyes threatening Ruby.

"Listen, I just want to help; is he sick?" she asked.

Neopolitan shook her sword at her furiously.

"Please…"

Ruby caught a whiff of their clothes and they smelled horrible; almost like they haven't been washed in weeks.

"Please I'm not gonna cause you any problems I just want to" Ruby had started but she was cut off when Neopolitan thrust her sword into her shoulder twisting it.

"Ah!" Ruby gasped.

Neopolitan glared at her.

"Will you stop; I'm to help, please. He needs to see a doctor and so do you!" Ruby cried out; half in pain and half from worry.

Neopolitan pulled her sword out and her gaze soften as she nodded.

"Ok, let's get him to the hospital. I can carry him; it's ok my shoulder doesn't hurt that bad. Let's go so you guys can see a doctor," Ruby said, smiling through her pain.

Neopolitan put her thin sword back into her parasol and helped Ruby pick Roman off the ground. Ruby flinched at the extreme pain in her shoulder, which Neopolitan noticed giving her a look like she was sorry. Ruby just smiled carrying Roman like he was her bride as they walked out of the alley into the open street. She stopped looking at Neopolitan.

"You don't talk?" Ruby asked.

Neopolitan shook her head; making Ruby giggle.

"That's so cute!" she said excitedly.

Neopolitan's face turned red matching Ruby's hood.

"Let's hurry along. If you climb on my back, I can use my semblance to get us there faster. Don't worry I'm able to carry you both," Ruby mentioned proudly.

She climbed onto Ruby's back and Ruby sped off to get them the help they desperately needed.
