Faunus Are Just Animals

Suitable for Teens

Words:

Summary: Yang found her Mom, Ruby's mom was dead. Yang and Ruby both lost their Father. Difference, Yang had someone to hold her, someone to be a parental figure and teach her how to survive. Ruby had no one to hold her, she was trained, conditioned, and forced to work for the bad guys. She never had a normal life. All because Yang chose Raven over her.

Disclaimer: If you see anything familiar, it's because I took so much inspiration from a-lot of the RWBY fanfictions.

Important Things: Faunus Ruby, Dead Taiyang.

Don't Like Don't Read, also don't be that one person who's like "Umm…. That's not accurate. Also that's not like the RWBY characters at all." First of all Screw You, Second of all, DON'T LIKE, DON'T FREAKING READ!

Yang 5, Ruby 3

Yang looked at her little sister, her name was Ruby. She had short black hair with red highlights. She almost looked human, if she didn't have two pairs of cute black wolf ears with reddish tips and a black furry wolf tail. Yang loved her sister very much, but there were times when she…..questioned if Ruby was a person. Ruby would always know if someone was at the door before they even got a chance to ring the doorbell or knock on it. She would always know what someone was cooking by sniffing the air. But Yang knew it was normal, Mommy always did these things too. Just not as often as Ruby did.

One good thing about Ruby was that she was always so energetic, Yang and her would always play together when Mommy was working. Daddy was home too, but he was busy with work too. Ruby was always with Mommy, but it was okay, Yang liked to spend time with Daddy anyways. Ruby always looked up to Yang. Yang was like her guide to the world, without Yang she would be lost. But Mommy would be there to protect her too…...Right?

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP-

Yang 8, Ruby 6

"M-M-Mommy my head hurts" Ruby's head hurt, it was a like someone had drove a knife through it. She could hear sirens out in the distance but it was muffled by the sound of the car horn.

"M-Mommy...it hurts….Mommy..?" Ruby turned her head and tried to open her eyes, but she was just….so….tired. She could hear the sirens more clearly now, they sounded closer.

She felt something, something covering her, her favorite bright red hoodie felt wet, when she finally opened her eyes she noticed there were large dark red wet spots on the hoodie. Her hair also felt wet, and when she looked up at her mother she finally realized what the dark wet red stuff was.

Her Mother's Blood.

"How is she?" She could hear someone, Daddy?

"She's fine but… we don't know how this could affect her mentally or emotionally." Who was that, her voice sounded soft, but serious. What had happened to her, where was she, where was Yang, where was...Mommy?

"What about-"

"I'm sorry, she didn't make it on the way here." Who didn't make it here?

"Oh, oh god….but she's going to be okay, right?" Okay, was Daddy talking about her? What was wrong with her?

"Mmmhh" Ruby tried to lift herself off of the hospital bed she was on.

"Ruby, how are you feeling?" Daddy asked her. He looked sad, but had a smile.

"Daddy..?, what happened?, where's Mommy? Is she in the hallway or something?"

"Ruby….there was an accident. Mommy is, gone."

3 Months Later

It had been days, weeks, months since Ruby had spoke, or even made a sound. Ruby hasn't made a peep since the hospital. Yang had tried everything to make her talk again, she tried talking to Ruby, she tried making her laugh, but nothing would make her talk.

"Come on Ruby…..talk to me…" Yang desperately pleaded to her sister.

Ruby just looked at Yang with her ears down, she almost never had a smile, she would only smile when she drew or when Uncle Qrow came to visit. Uncle Qrow could always make Ruby smile. Yang really missed the sound of Ruby's voice, it was so cute and friendly. She hated how much the people at school would make fun of Ruby, she used to be made fun of for her wolf ears, now she was made fun of because she wouldn't talk.

But at least Ruby getting better, their father was something else entirely. Taiyang had been completely broken after Summers death. He had begun drinking constantly, he began to neglect his daughters, he was a shell of a man. And Yang couldn't be mad at him, she was sad too but she had to take care of Ruby. She couldn't be mad at him completely. She tried to cheer him up, she really did. It wasn't until Qrow came and talked to him that he changed.

"Tai...you need to stop…..Yang and Ruby need you!" Qrow said as he tried to lift the man up from the floor of Taiyangs rooms floor.

"Why should I Qrow? Raven left me, Summer's gone, what's the point?"

"The Point, is that you still have two little angels, your own flesh and blood. They need you Tai… So you need to get out of this funk!" Qrow said while picking Taiyang up from the floor. It might have seemed useless to help Taiyang, he had lost two of his loves, but their was still hope, he still had two daughters.

And pretty soon… Ruby started talking again.

Yang 9, Ruby 7

2 Weeks…

It had been 2 weeks since Taiyang went on a mission…

And he didn't come back, Yang knew what this meant.

"Yang sweety, keep Ruby safe while I'm gone. I'll be back before dinner."

When he didn't show up the first day, she thought he had stayed the night at a motel because he was too tired to go home. She knew Ruby would ask her if she was worried.

When he didn't show up the fifth day, Ruby started to ask her where daddy went, Yang just told her, "Don't worry Rubbles. Dad always comes back." He has to...right…?

She gave up hope that he would come back on the 2nd week, She knew Uncle Qrow had a long mission that gave him a while back. So she had a great idea. Maybe she could search around Taiyangs room to look for some of Taiyangs friends phone numbers.

She looked through his desk, through his cabinets, when she found nothing she tried to look again. When she tried the desk again, she found an old photo. It had Taiyang, Uncle Qrow, Summer, and another person she didn't know.

Maybe she could help!

When she kept looking she found an old photo of a house, when she flipped the photo over the back read, "Ravens Home". It had the women from the photo!

Yang decided to tell Ruby her plan.

"And if we find her, maybe she can-"

"Help us find dad!?" Ruby cut her off excitedly, ears perking up. Yang knew Ruby had never lost hope, and Yang didn't have the heart to tell her otherwise.

"Yeah… C'mon Ruby… Lets go!" Yang said as she prepared for the trip.

And then they left the house with walking together.

Walking.

Walking.

Walking.

It had been 2 hours, maybe more. But they finally arrived at the old abandoned house.

"Were here!" Yang said as she ran up to the house. But she stopped in her tracks seeing a flash of red.

"What's wrong?" Ruby said as she trailed behind Yang.

And that's when they saw them, those burning red eyes. The grimm loaunched out of the shadows, Yang was sure she was going to die right there and then. And Ruby had screamed.

They felt a quick slice in the air and, nothing… When they opened their eyes, they saw a figure of red and black. She had calculating red eyes and raven black hair (Get the joke?). When they sighed in relief she turned to them.

"What are you doing in a grimm infested fore- Wait a minute…." Raven said as she leaned in closer to get a better look. And Red eyes met Lilac.

"Y-Yang..? Is that you?"

"My name's Yang, Yang Xiao Long. And this is my sister, Ruby Xiao Long." Yang said as she pointed to herself and Ruby.

"Yang do you… remember me?" Raven asked as she looked at them both.

"No… Should I?"

"Yang it's me. Raven… Your Mother."

And that's when everything fell apart.
