Summary/disclaimer: Time for another chapter of Wolf and Reaper. Enjoy the 900-word chapter. I don't own RWBY, Monty Oum and Rooster Teeth do.

(Mistral.)

Ruby saw the hatred within Ren, both wanted to fight off the monster. Ruby's thoughts shifted to Azul.

What would Azul think if he could see this? would he be scared, surprised his childhood friend turned girlfriend would be fighting a Grimm the size of a house able to level an entire village alone.

Ruby rushed at the Grimm; its upper body wasn't invulnerable like the rest of it. she planned on decapitating it, the Grimm wouldn't survive that.

"Ruby…You can't kill it." Ren stated, Ruby turned to the teammate with anger in her eyes.

Then Ren spoke up and she understood why Ren looked so angry. It made so much sense to her.

"Because we want to kill it." Ruby was already rushing forward, letting out a sigh and mentally nodded.

She was going to disable the Grimm then. if Ren wanted to kill the Grimm? She wouldn't stop him, she just wanted to kill off the monster so it couldn't hurt anyone.

If the Grimm fell? Then she'd be ok, Mistral and Azul would be ok. Ruby fired a round to spin around a hand, cutting her scythe into the limb. The massive Grimm screeched.

A Nevermore slammed into her, sending her sliding along the floor, red Aura bleeding off her body. She growled in annoyance as Nora and Ren opened fire on the hulking beast.

It ignored their fire. Ruby was surprised at how aggressive the beast was. She was entirely flabbergasted at the sheer fact that she made it bleed.

Ruby dodged the Nevermore, firing a round after it that blew a hole in its wing. She watched the Grimm scream in pain before skimming into a building before a Beowolf leapt at her from a wagon.

That was before a gunshot went off. Ruby watched the headless Grimm collapse to the ground, smoke coming off it's body in shock. She couldn't understand what was happening to it.

"Ruby, this isn't your fight… what are you doing here?" Ruby heard and she turned to look at Qrow.

The man had held Harbinger, the shotgun barrels on the weapon smoking as he glared at his daughter.

She had the same stubborn determination as her mother. The drive to fight something she believed in.

And now she had risked her life for what? Qrow knew it was because of Azul partly, because her antics during the fight had gotten him harmed. She wanted revenge? That would end up getting her killed and she knew it would end up dying off.

Ruby sighed and ejected a bullet from the scythe, glaring at JNR engaging the massive monster.

"You know why I'm here." Ruby planted her scythe in the ground. Qrow said nothing at the moment.

He needed to make sure the Grimm died; Ruby would be too preoccupied with the Grimm.

Then she would return to Azul because Qrow had pulled the others from his side. Qrow didn't hate Azul, but his daughter was blinded by rage and pure hatred of the Grimm.

Next move she made would end up getting herself killed. Summer didn't have him chase after their child just to get him killed.

"Wait, what happened to Azul and the other cities!?" Qrow ignored Ruby, they would have words for the moment.

Qrow knew that Ruby wasn't one to back down. Summer had fought him on everything, Qrow knew their child wouldn't be any different. Ruby was always stubborn.

She decapitated a Beowolf and rushed away, having to protect Azul from the Grimm. She didn't come here just for him, she came for Mistral, for people and for justice.

"DAD!" Ruby yelled as she raced through the trees. It called rage, it carried pure venom and she ended up regretting it later.

But not now. She knew what Qrow was trying to do… and it was working, entirely because she was too unwilling to let more people get hurt.

This was how Azul feels right now, isn't it? being unable to help people despite trying so hard to set things right? that had to eat at people, just like it ate at Azul… and she knew for a fact it ate at him no matter how much he would deny it.

Qrow wanted her to retreat, and he used her heart as a weapon to do it?

Part of her respected her dad for caring so much about his daughter... the other part clawed at her, demanding her to be angry at the fact Qrow was trying to force her to do something against her own judgement.

Nothing really won out, however, and that just made her more incensed at herself for letting this happen.

But that didn't matter at the moment. she could be mad when she was sure Azul was safe and that they had a ride to Haven.

She was sure that things would go off a lot better.
