THE LAST WOLF STANDING.

🕘: PLUCKING THE RED ROSE

RUBY'S DIARY.

'Revenge comes off as a demanding term. Any time one has to be forced to think about justice. Both terms can be referred to one and the same when it comes off to teaching a lesson to people who actually deserve it. The thing is with justice it never comes with consequences of death, fatal injury or worse getting locked up. With revenge it darkness one's heart and forces one to walk in the shoes of the culprit. It would be easy to seek justice if it did not favor those with enough money or connections or POWER. So knowing my enemy I would rather walk down the dark path of revenge that demands a lot from me. Then and only then will I be satisfied.'

"The road to redemption won't be easy." "Dean, I think killing the very monster destroying the world is part of our redemption." Ruby coldly answers repacking her book bag with subjects she had for the day. "I got to get to school. Notify me when you decide who dies next." The raven states walking out of the kitchen leaving her two siblings still in robes. "Well she is beginning to scare me." Mick states chewing on his brown crunchy toast. "She is beginning to sound like my dad during vampire hunts." "I left two chocolate bars in our snack cabinet. Did you eat them?" "Straight up accuse the one in the room." Scoffs Dean standing from his seat watching the annoyed brunette pick close the snack cabinets."Straight up answer the question then."demands Mick walking UpTo his brother. "Ruby took them right before you walked in." "Why ... It's one of them days." "What day?" "Stupid your should pay attention to your sister's health I'll go check on the accounts of the week. I need to create a spreadsheet for tomorrow's monthly report." He walks away leaving the blonde in confusion.

Archery club.
Ruby stands in front of the target and shoots hitting the bulls eye for the second time since she started. The other students in the club eyes could not help but land on the dark haired no and it's not because of her mermaid facial features it's because of the two 10 pointers she just kapowed on their targets. And Reagan claimed she was a starter. Beginner with that much beginners luck noooo "Making a ten again, are you sure you are as green as you claim?" That annoying voice that literally bugs her echoes in the room growing closer and closer to her. "Why are you here?" She questions aiming another arrow for a close eight. "Am taking care of my cousin-in-law." "What cousin-in-law?" Inquires Ruby as she pretends to look around knowing very well there is no one else in the room the boy was much interested in despite the fawning girls in the room looking away each time his gaze falls upon them. "I've seen you making moves trying to lure my kind-hearted cousin in your never ending trap. The question is why him?" He whispers direct into her ear a bit sexually than she expected making the female turn her head to the right. How annoying, Ruby sarcastically laughs as she approaches the silver head and once in front of him her aura changes, completely different. A very scary aura. One that intimidates even Derrick himself . She stands there with an icy stare quiet like the room. No movement as she studies the boy. "Why are you...what are you..." Derrick stutters finding the girl's moves bizarre as she pulls him by his tie letting her lips land on the side of his ear. "You talk too much. You use a lot of time studying me and making threats, that you never fulfill BTW. I find it funny." Once done she lets go of his shirt turning away taking an aim towards the target. The staring group of club members get startled by the loud bell reminding them it's time to go home.

Once everyone was out of the room Derrick grabs Ruby's hand turning her to face him letting his black eyes consume her blue like the night consuming the blue day. "I am still on you little mermaid don't you think your steps around me should be played with caution." His voice low and silky with a growl at the edge puts a small smile on Ruby's face almost sadistic while her eyes grow a darkness to match his. "Sweetheart you need to calm down. First of all I did not approach your cousin he approached me. Two, stop pretending to be his dad, it's not like we are joined to the hip, yet. Three, can you stop stalking me, Mr. Silverstine you have better things to do than being my lap dog." Derrick looks at the raven in shock, his fixed glare wavering for a minute while watching her eyes still dark than his swimming in an misunderstood rage.
The audacity of this female talking to him, HIM like that. His pulsing anger takes over him forcing his left hand to grab her hand right in a tight fist squeezing until his bare palms could feel her bones compress his own through her thick jujutsu kaisen themed jumper. This was definitely going to leave a mark.
