The Lone Agents (Ruby Rose x Reader)

Ch 34 One Down, Five More to Go

The tracking went cold as whatever footsteps there was gotten washed away by yesterday's rainfall. The single sign that your friends and Ruby were there recently was the remains of a campfire and oddly enough an apple core.

Laying against a tree for the night you have thought to that talk with Summer or rather her tombstone. This reminded you that your mother must be worried. With nothing to do you figured now would be the best time now to write a letter for when you stop by a village or a city. Taking out a paper you wrote.

Dear Mother,

I know it has been awhile since I last wrote a letter. Quite honestly I find it still hard to do so. You can probably tell by this letter but do not worry as I am okay. I may have gotten a scar or two but overall okay. I will spare you the details but I helped out a group of people for a bit of time with my paramedic training. From there I got a ride to the island of Patch and talked to Ruby's late mother. Currently I am still trying to find Ruby. So far not much luck but with the large group it is only just a matter of time until I catch up. Though this does not make the situation any better. I miss waking up and seeing her by my side even if I am usually stuck as she hugs me. Well I will
cut this short. Oh yeah, I am going to Haven by the way. One last thought. Remember the person Qrow Branwen? The one in one of the previous letters I wrote about when I first met him? I did not see him. I assume he will now try to beat us to Haven. Maybe you will take comfort knowing that at least by this it will be that there will be less resistance moving over to our objective. I mean surely he has to have his niece in mind, right?

Sincerely,

Y/N L/N

Y/N: Good enough. Hmmm... Maybe, maybe
I should try to call her one of these days. Still doesn't deserves to be called mom but maybe attempt to try more than letters. I don't know. Should I? I mean given the times I should. If anything I deserve at the very least the reason why she left. Hear it from her personally and not just some letter.

Putting these thoughts aside you grab out a blanket, draping it on yourself and going to sleep. You soon were woken up by a person making quite a bit of noise. By the sounds of this they were in close proximity. Pulling out Wyvern, aiming your pistol at this unknown person you could see how they were startled but aimed your weapon as well.

Man: Drop it!

Y/N: You drop it!

Turning into a standoff you then strangely see a figure quietly dropping down from a nearby tree. Making eye contact with the figure they  revealed themselves to be Nathaniel who just as quickly put one finger to his face, signaling you to be quiet as he made his way behind the man slowly.

You just had to stall him so you obliged this man's request and drop your pistol.

Man: Good, now put your hands in the air.

Putting your hands in the air you just had to stall and await for Nathaniel to strike.

Y/N: Is this a robbery?

Man: Yes.

Y/N: Wait. That's illegal.

Man: Are you fucking special kid?

Y/N: I'm 60 percent sure I was dropped as a baby. That or shaken a little.

Man: (sighs) I'm going to hate doing this... Ehhh, maybe not. Turn around.

Y/N: Okay.

You chuckle to yourself. Despite the situation you find it funny that even if you were to die this person would never be able to open your NinjaBike Messenger Backpack.
