3rd P.O.V
It was another "normal" day in the Rose household. Ruby and Tai went out for father-daughter time. After all, just because Ruby's married doesn't mean she shouldn't bond with her father every now and then. But... The downside to the two leaving was that Weiss was free to torture Mutasim until they got back. Of course, to avoid being outed, she had to only injure parts of his body where nobody would see.
Currently, Weiss was cleaning her hands from some leftover blood. She tried to take a page out of Yang's book and beat Mutasim to a pulp. While the boy used his Semblance to try and get away from Weiss, she simply retaliated with her own, using it to bring him back to her.
Meanwhile, Mutasim could be seen holding his gut which had more than few bruises scattered around. The boy curled up under his blanket in his bed for comfort. His body ached in pain, but he was glad that Weiss stopped when she did. It could've been worse. MUCH worse.
Unknown to Mutasim, perched atop a tree right next to his window was a black raven. It tilted its head as it looked at the covered figure. Letting out a low squawk, it flew to the window, changing into a humanoid figure. To Mutasim's surprise, the window opened and he peeked out from the blanket, seeing a beautiful black haired woman with crimson eyes. Yet, the sight also scared him when he saw she brandished a crimson katana.
Woman: Easy kid. I'm not going to hurt you. You're Ruby's kid, right? You look a lot like your mom and your grandmom.
The boy stayed silent, trembling at the sight of the stranger. She just sighed and shook her head.
Woman: Look, I think its safe to say you're not really receiving the best of treatment around that Schnee mother of yours. Let me take you to your aunt Yang, she can talk some sense into her teammate. But only if you tell her the truth.
Mutasim: I-I... I don't want to make mom mad...
Woman: Listen to me. That woman is not your mother. Has she ever acted like one? Has she ever said the words "I love you" at all?
Looking down in thought, Mutasim began to think on all his interactions with Weiss. Even before the abuse started, Weiss and him weren't really close at all. It was mostly everyone else who loved and cherished him. But Weiss had never even made an attempt to raise him. The boy's expression fell when he realised he had good memories of everyone except for Weiss. The woman nodded solemnly, agreeing with Mutasim.
Woman: I'm sorry. But you need to tell someone about this. The family loves you, Mutasim. And if you tell them, I can guarantee they'll act immediately. Especially since you have the marks to prove what's been done to you.
Mutasim: B-But... W-What if she tries to hurt me again?
Woman: Ruby, Tai, everyone... They wouldn't let that happen to you. And if its necessary, I'll help too. You're still just a kid. Its okay to ask for help. But this is a one-off for me. Now, do you want me to take you to Yang? Or not.
Mutasim looked down at his gut, lifting his shirt up just a tiny bit, exposing a bruise. Not wanting to go through the harsh punishment again, he nodded.
Mutasim: Yes please.
The woman nodded and sliced at the air on her right, opening a red and eerie portal.
Woman: It looks scary, but trust me. It'll take you straight to your aunt.
Mutasim: T-Thank you, miss.
She nodded and was about to leave, but all of a sudden, she was encased in ice, scaring Mutasim. Turning his head, he saw Weiss with her rapier in hand.
