Chapter one: Introductions
Ruby Rose was an interesting girl, but you wouldn't know considering the fact that she was known as the girl wth no emotion. If she was ever happy, sad, of mad, you probably wouldn't be able to tell. She was rumored to hate everything, but this is far from the truth. Ruby has a soft spot for a few things, her family, fighting, working out, and reading, but that was pretty much it. She has never shown interest in any other than those things. Even when she was doing the the things she loved though, Ruby still never showed a smile, a grin, or even a smirk. It was a dream for most boys to make her smile because she was absolutely gorgeous.
Ruby didn't really care about being pretty, she barely put any effort into her looks at all, but she still got all the attention from the boys at her school. A dozen boys would come to her with proposals of lunch dates and study dates. It's not like she didn't know why though, she was aware that she was a pretty girl. She had an odd mixture of red and black hair that gave off a truly unique look. She had even more unique silver eyes that you couldn't help but stare at. She had soft pale white that you just wanted to rub lotion on. She wore the cutest little dress (or combat skirt as she called it) that gave many the impression that she was a civilized and well behaved young lady (she isn't, but we'll get to that later). The skirt ended right above her knees, so unfortunately for all the perverted boys in her school, they couldn't get a glimpse of her seemingly endless legs.
Lets go back to Ruby's personality for a minute, although the thought of an adorable fifteen year old girl that likes to read dosen't sound intimidating, Ruby would make you think otherwise. Ruby was, surprisingly, the most feared person in her school. She had a temper the size of an ant and could easily snap into a random fit of rage. It's a wonder why boys kept asking her out, seeing as they always get kicked in their private parts by an angry Ruby. She's been known to punch a poor girl or boy in face for simply bumping into her. And she did all this with no emotion on her face.
Her parents decided to get her a punching bag to take her anger out on. That ended up making the situation even worse as Ruby started to grow a love for punching things, and of course that led to Ruby being even more violent than before. Combine this with the fact that Ruby had little to no social skills, it made her a social outcast. She was never great at making friends, and whenever she tries to actually be nice and talk to someone, they end up running away, which made her even more angry.
And that, dear readers is Ruby Rose, beautiful, scary and lonely.
Jaune Arc is a completely different case all together. He was a very nice boy, happy go lucky boy, or at least, he seemed like it, the poor boy had a few problems. To completely understand Jaune's problems though, we have to know about his family, trust me, it'll make sense in a minute. Jaune had four older sisters who were incredibly talented and respected.
His sister Jean, at the young age of nineteen, was already a world renowned doctor that recovered a Nobel prize for saving the Pope's life. I know that seems like a ridiculous lie, but she has the certificate to prove it. She continues to save people's' lives all around the world.
His sister Maggie, age twenty-one, was a well respected journalist that got to interview people such as the president of the United States, the governor of California, famous writers and even more famous celebrities. She even wrote stories on the biggest news stories all over the world. Needless to say she had gotten a very solid reputation in the world of journalism.
His sisters Rebecca, age twenty-seven, and Sasha, age twenty-eight, were very successful business partners. Rebecca was a supermodel that was constantly being called the most beautiful woman in world. Good looking women were always a regular in the Arc family, but Rebecca was on a whole different level. Men would immediately fall on their knees whenever she walked into a room. The reason why she was even able to fly by school so easily is because she got boys to do her school work for her. It was rumored that when she was eating at a diner, a man complemented her saying that she could be a supermodel. That gave Rebecca the idea to go into the modeling business after college.
This is where Sasha comes into play, ever since she was a young girl she dreamed of being in the fashion industry, she always said that once people wear her clothes, they will feel like a whole new person. Well after Sasha finished high school, she immediately went to college and earned her major in fashion design. Her and Rebecca had a deal, Sasha would make Rebecca outfits to model and they would split the profit. The idea worked to perfection and soon the two women were the biggest names in the modeling and fashion industry, which of course makes them extremely wealthy.
The reason why I go on about Jaune's sisters and all their success is because it is part of Jaune's main problem, he is a underachiever. All of his sisters had something about them that made them special, that made them important.
Jaune was nothing. He didn't have a special talent or anything that made him stand out from a crowd. He was just plain old Jaune Arc, the sweet yet talentless nerd. But constantly worrying about being an underachiever was only one of Jaune's problems, the other problem he had was bullies.
Jaune has had to deal with bullies his whole life and situation was only getting worse as he grew older. He was in his second year of high and the bullies showed no signs of stopping their abuse on the poor boy. The leader of these bullies was none other than Cardin Winchester. For some reason, he loved picking on Jaune, it was probably his favorite past time. Jaune didn't have the guts to ask Cardin why he targeted him all the time, he knew that it would probably end with him getting the living crap beat out him.
On to the next problem Jaune has, his parents. His parents were never around because like his sisters, they were very successful and busy people and are always traveling the world. This meant that they had lots of money and could afford to get Jaune anything he wanted, but all the action figures and the gaming systems in the world couldn't fill the gap in Jaune's heart that could only be filled by his parents love. He only wished that his parents could come home for the holidays just one time, or at least give him his presents in person, but as long as they were successful people, they would always have more important things to do.
Jaune's parents being gone so often that also meant that they couldn't help him with his other big problem, he is socially awkward. Jaune had made attempts of making friends before, but he always failed either because he didn't know what to say after "Hi", or because he got nervous and stuttered like crazy. His stuttering problem was probably one of the reasons he was bullied so hard now that I think about it.
In his fifteen years of living, Jaune has never had a friend, and with his parents never home and his sisters out of the house, Jaune was really lonely.
So that's Jaune Arc, the lonely, social awkward, underachiever.
Authors Note: The chapters will get longer after this. This chapter was just to introduce the personalitys of Ruby and Jaune.
