Welcome, one and all, to my first fanfic. Not the first I've ever thought of, but the first I've ever gotten around to writing. This particular fic's plot is inspired somewhat by Chapter 25 of the fic "Those Days" by jitterwhack, but the dialogue draws more inspiration from the web animation "Mad, Mad Mario". If you haven't seen either of these, definitely check them out.
Anyways, on we go.
RWBY is owned by Rooster Teeth Productions and the late Monty Oum. Please support the official release.
One would think being named the leader of your huntsman team in Beacon Academy was a tremendous honor. And most of the time, you'd be right. Being the one person your comrades in arms look up to for guidance is indeed awe-inspiring.
But of course, there are times when your teammates do things they shouldn't be doing, and ultimately it's the leader who has to take the blame.
Such is the case of one Ruby Rose.
"…ugh, another day…another load of headaches waiting to happen…" the red reaper grumbled from her bed.
Ruby honestly didn't even want to get up. She was certain that at some point during the day, someone on her team would do something stupid and rope everyone else in (more often than not, it's Yang) and then Ruby would be taking the blame for it simply for being the leader, and then had to sit through yet another detention issued by Glynda Goodwitch, scolding the victimized rose about "controlling her team". Maybe if she stayed, her team's antics wouldn't immediately be her fault.
'Then again if it happens again,, it's not like laying here will protect me from another detention with Goodwitch…', Ruby's mind traitorously reminded. With a huff of minor annoyance, she dragged herself out of her bed…and immediately remembered she had the top bunk.
A bit too late as her face collided with the floor.
"Oww…"
Ruby proceeded to slowly get up…and only now noticed the absence of her teammates. No Weiss to nag at her, no Blake reading her filthy smut, not even Yang and her atrocious puns. Upon the realization, Ruby froze and paled.
"Oh no…please no…" she fearfully whispered.
As fast as she could (Semblance included), she got her school uniform on, cloak and all, and rushed to the Beacon cafeteria, hoping to stop her sister and friends from ruining the day already.
At the cafeteria...
As Ruby entered, she almost immediately noticed the cafeteria's state as well as the students. And how could she not?
It appears the Great Food War had just had a sequel.
Drinks and foods were covering the majority of the walls. Tables flipped over and on their sides, chairs broken and lying around. Poor Cardin Winchester with a bloody nose next to a tray of mashed potatoes with said blood on it.
Though, the brutish bully was merely the first of many. Several dozen other students lay broken, beaten, and covered in delicacies. Velvet and Coco fuming about the gravy on their bodies. Jaune hanging from the wall by a swordfish. Pyrrha Nikos, drenched in soda, and unconscious.
Oh, and the professors of Beacon all suddenly turning towards Ruby, Glynda Goodwitch with her signature scowl on her fa-
'Oh Dust, what now…' Ruby internally lamented, as Goodwitch approached.
"Ah, Miss Rose. I see you've finally arrived at the disaster area." The debatably "good" witch said. "Have you come to celebrate your team's victory in trashing the cafeteria again? Or are you just here to accept another detention for failing to stop your team from doing it in the first place?"
Ruby just looked past Goodwitch, who started writing on her clipboard, and over near the end of the cafeteria, covered in food as well, was the remnants of Team RWBY. Weiss Schnee, not looking too happy. Blake Belladonna, looking as indifferent as always. And Yang Xiao Long, looking proud of what she evidently started.
'She's not even ashamed of what she did.'
Ruby was frozen. But not in fear. Not in shock. And not in glory. No, this was a rather new emotion stirring inside of Ruby Rose.
Rage.
Pure, blazing, unadulterated RAGE!
"…so that adds up to three hours of detention today and tomorrow." Goodwitch summarized. "Have I made myself clea-" she was about to say before she noticed that Ruby was stomping towards her teammates.
"Honestly, Yang, this was completely unnecessary." Weiss tried to scold the buxom blonde, but was failing to get through.
"Ah, come on, Weiss-cream. Live a little! Didn't you have fun trouncing these fools?" Yang retorted gleefully. Weiss turned and crossed her arms.
"That's not what matters here, you brute! What matters is that-" Weiss was about to continue before their faunus friend intervened.
"Uh, guys, Ruby's coming over here. And I don't think she's happy." Blake pointed towards the other side of the cafeteria.
WBY turned to see their peppy team leader stomping towards them, And her face in a new, terrifying expression.
Not happy was a hell of an understatement.
Ruby was absolutely LIVID!
"YOU THREE!" the raging reaper screamed, shocking everyone in the room.
"Uh, h-hey sis. H-how ya d-doin?" Yang stammered.
"ARE YOU DIPSHITS PROUD OF YOURSELVES?! YOU THINK THIS IS CUTE?! YOU THINK THIS IS FUCKING FUNNY?! ALL OF THIS SHIT?!" Ruby continued screaming.
WBY was immediately taken aback by the rage, but Yang was more so by her baby sister's swearing.
"Ruby, did you just-" Yang tried to say, but was cut off again.
"DO YOU FUCKHEADS EVEN KNOW WHAT HAPPENS EVERY DAMN TIME YOU DO SHIT LIKE THIS?! DO YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE TO CLEAN UP AFTER YOU EVERY FUCKING TIME?!" Ruby loudly ranted with no clear signs of stopping.
"Okay, Ruby. L-let's try taking deeeep brea-" Weiss tried to defuse the situation, but Ruby was having none of it.
"SHUT THE HELL UP, DADDY'S WHORE! YOU OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW BETTER THAN TO DO SHIT LIKE THIS! SO WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DECIDING TO BE THE CHILD NOW?!" Ruby retorted, causing Weiss to back away in fear.
"I-I'm just gonna go-" Blake unsuccessfully attempts to escape, only for Ruby to turn towards her.
"AND YOU! DON'T EVEN THINK FOR A GOD DAMNED SECOND THAT I'M LETTING YOUR HAIRBALL-SPEWING ASS RUN FROM THIS! YOU COULD'VE STOPPED YOUR GOD DAMN PARTNER FROM STARTING SHIT! SO WHY THE FUCK DIDN'T YOU?!" Ruby ripped into Blake, the faunus so beyond frightened that even the reaper's slightly racist insult didn't register.
"Wow, Rubes. I-I'm sorry. I didn't kno-" Yang would regret chiming in, because Ruby turned to her and somehow got even angrier.
"AND THEN THERE'S YOU!" Ruby stomped right up to Yang, grabbed her by the collar of her blazer, and dragged her big sister to eye level.
"EVERY FUCKING THING YOU FUCKING DO HAS DONE NOTHING BUT CAUSED SUFFERING TO NOT JUST ME, BUT EVERYONE ELSE AROUND YOU, MEANWHILE YOU GET OFF SCOTT-FUCKING FREE! I CAN'T EVEN FUCKING RELAX IN MY OWN DORM WITHOUT YOUR SHITTY ASS PUNS OR YOU HITTING ON EVERY GUY IN BEACON LIKE A GOD DAMN SLUT!" Ruby screamed right into Yang's face.
"Y-you think I'm a slu-WOAH!" Before Yang could finish, her little sister then tossed her backwards, knocking her into Blake and Weiss, and in turn, knocking them down on their asses.
"YOU THREE HAVE MADE THE PAST MONTH A LIVING HELL FOR ME BECAUSE OF YOUR SHIT! LANDING ME IN NO LESS THAN SEVEN FUCKING DETENTIONS BECAUSE I "HAVE NO CONTROL" OF YOUR STUPID ASSES!" Ruby yelled as she stood over her terrified team, who were on the verge of tears.
"W-what do you want from us?" Blake whimpered in fear.
"JUST! FUCKING! STOP!" Ruby angrily answered. "I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE FUCK YOU THREE GET OFF ON MAKING ME SUFFER!" She then grabs all three of the girls by their collars (somehow) and looks them dead in the eyes.
"But I swear to all Gods out there…" Ruby quietly growls, "If I ever, have to take the blame for any more shit that you three do, I will strangle each of you with your intestinal tract!"
WBY blanched at that.
"Do I make myself clear?" Ruby threatened.
The girls didn't respond out of fear.
"I SAID DO I FUCKING MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?!" Ruby screams in a demonic tone of voice.
"YES MA'AM! CRYSTAL CLEAR! IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN!" WBY responded, tears falling out.
"IT FUCKING BETTER NOT!" Ruby answered before grabbing them all by their hair and dragging them out of the cafeteria, ignoring their cries of pain.
"Now we are going right back to the dorm now! And after I'm done beating the shit out of you three, I'm taking the fucking day off!" Ruby shouted as she passed the stunned professors, the cafeteria doors slamming shut behind the girls.
Silence falls over the large hall, before finally breaking.
"Well, that was…quite the display of anger." Port stated.
"I hadn't thought Miss Rose even capable of such anger. She seemed far too pacifistic." Oobleck added on.
"You know what? I think Miss Rose does deserve a bit of a break." Ozpin answered. "Glynda, perhaps you could…Glynda?"
The deputy headmistress stood unmoving, gazing at the spot where RWBY had been, a heavy blush adorning her face.
"…I-I think I found my kink…" Glynda silently said.
