The crowd cheered as a very bloody golden haired girl walked off of the stage.
"I won.." She breathed out, wiping her forehead with a towel as she walked outside.
"Well of course you did, firecracker."
A deep voice was heard from behind her.
"Uncle Qrow! I haven't seen you in a while."
"True," he took a swig of a half empty bottle, "How's Ruby?"
"Still.. Drinking I see," she looked at the ground, "I.."
"I know.. Poor girl.."
The girl sighed, "I.. Don't know. I'm still not talking to anyone."
"I know. That shook you up so bad."

The smell of alcohol was strong as the door bursted open.
"Hands up now!" A black haired police woman commanded, pointing a gun at the tall man.
"Why should I? I did nothing wrong." He chuckled.
"Yeah! Go mom!" She cheered from behind her.
He took a gun from his pocket and shot it swiftly.
"Mom, no!"
"Dad? Why did you do that?!" A young black haired girl asked the drunken man.
"It was self defense!" He yelled loudly.
"You didn't have to kill her!"
A punch was thrown, "Never talk back!" He then ran out and disappeared into the night, never being seen again.
"You." The girl's purple eyes darkened into a deep shade of red as she looked at the smaller girl, "It's your fault she died! I should've never decided to help you in the first place!"
"It's not my fault!" She cried, sobbing, "Don't talk anymore! I don't care what you do! Just leave!"
She left after that and never came back.

She choked on tears as the grey haired man hugged her tightly.
"It'll be ok, I promise." He swore.
"I just.. Feel.. So.. Awful! I want to apologize, but I have no clue of where she is."
His phone buzzed in his pocket. He took it out and checked it, " I know just where she is."
