'Before my mother died...she told me and my sister, Yang to always take care of each other...and most of all stay out of trouble. We tried but...unfortunately trouble starts to find us as we grew older...which got us to be killers. We never wanted to be killers...even the Good Lord knows we never wanted to be killers...but it was the only life we had...the only way to survive in this world. My sister and I were mostly contract killers working for the highest bidder and trying to make a name for ourselves all around the world. We even made friends with a former German police detective, Weiss and a rogue Japanese Yakuza, Blake. We had a bad start at first but did work things out and created our own small crew, RWBY. There's this island called Remnant. It's a paradise for sinners which is run by a crime syndicate called Grimm. Most of them were corrupted cops, federal agencies and military. All from different nations of the world. They do mostly drug and human trafficking, arm deals, kidnapping with murder and rape and they own the law enforcement who are all corrupted and have other connections in and out of Remnant. We never liked them because of what they did to me and my sister's family which our craziest idea was to take over Remnant. Grimm have their own army which means we had to have bring our new and old friends. My name is Ruby Rose...and this life is my life...this is our life...a life of a gangster.'
