New story! Yay! I would like to shoutout my girlfriend Hollow14 for helping me come up with the name and summary for this story. She is really amazing, and her stories are great, so go check out her stuff!

This is the prologue, so the next chapter will have the actual meat in it…anyways, onto the story! :


Ruby eyed the Beowolf with Crescent Rose, making sure it didn't smell where the rest of her friends were. It didn't.

Which meant she couldn't kill it. She sighed. Being the watchman (or watchwoman?) for her team was so tiring...

Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.

Yang came and took her place; shaking her gently awake, and Ruby blushed sheepishly. "Sorry, Yang! I didn't mean to fall asleep…"

Yang smiled and rubbed Ruby's head. "It's okay sis; I'll take watch now. You go get some sleep."

Ruby collapsed onto her bed and was out in seconds…


But then barking brought her jerkily to the present.

Zwei barked again before rushing off.

"Zwei! Zwei!" Ruby whisper-yelled.

He didn't come back, and Ruby groaned before grabbing Crescent Rose and rushing after the corgi.

She looked around the first building, but didn't see him. She peered around another corner of a run-down building and saw him relieving himself onto a metal support frame.

She was almost mad at him, but he was so darn cute!

"Zwei really? This is a wasteland; you really could have done that anywhere!"

He barked and she reached to pick him up as she heard someone say, "What was that?"

She hurried over to the corner of another building and peered around the corner.

Two White Fang guards were standing not very far from her, and she prayed that Zwei wouldn't bark. Luckily he didn't.

The White Fang guards looked like they were leaving, and then they disappeared around the corner.

Ruby hurried after them, sneaking behind them with her amazing sneak skills Blake had taught her.

She took a gentle step out from behind cover only to nearly fall over as she lost her balance.

She waved her arms and jumped back behind cover.

She got the brilliant idea to have Zwei make sure they weren't looking, and he barked only once; giving the all clear signal.

Ruby was so excited. Her first real mission of stopping bad guys!

She quickly got out her scroll to tell the others where she was, but it was out of range.

"Come on! We gotta find the others!" She got up and ran towards where her team was sleeping, only to find the concrete ground crumbling underneath her.

She fell and barely grabbed onto the ledge with her fingers. Zwei nearly fell into the dark pit, but Ruby skillfully grabbed him and tossed him back to safety.

Ruby pulled herself up to climb out, but the piece of concrete she was holding gave way and she fell…

She fell a long ways…

And it would be a long time before her team saw her again…

But once they did….

She wasn't the same…


A/N: So this piece of rainbows and sunshine happened. Lol this will be a very dark story.

Like, I think this is rated M for some seriously messed up stuff. (But no lemons; I don't like to write that stuff)

Stay tuned for more! Updated whenever I feel like it, so I'm sorry if you all are like, "oh, when is that story getting updated?" I have no clue.

Seeing as how this will be VERY dark, probably not often. So I apologize in advance for that.

But feel free to leave a review and PM me if you got anything you feel like saying! (Hopefully all good things, but I will appreciate any constrictive criticism!)

Peace! Jackie out!
