        "She is gonna irritate me." I thought to myself. I look curiously at my dark clad Faunus that I am stuck with as a team member. I mean, sure a Faunus' nose and ears are a great asset but, this one can't help me. Why? Cause she simply won't. Oh well, I just get to add one more name too my pleasure list. "Kill. It's the only thing you have left. You lost your mother, and you lost your own partner. All to your hand. Kill them all..." the voice inside my head prompts me on. I look left and right inside little drab room.

       I'm sitting on my bed, which Weiss calls a hazard. And I agree. Whole reason I did this. My bed is suspended by ropes just over Weiss's. Blake's bed is just under Yang's being held up by books. Blake was my current trouble. She will definitely undercut my killing spree. Yang is just a dumb-ass blonde so I can fool her easy and well, I wasn't lying when I told Weiss I needed a partner. Just when I said that I was still a cop.

       "Hey Weiss? I need your help, come with me please." She looks at me and nods. "Oh and, grab your weapon." She turns to grab her weapon, and follows me out he door.

       "Well what is this about?" She asked me. There is a small hint of excitement in her voice. "Is it an assignment?"

       I smile knowing that I can get away with what I have planned. "Yes Weiss, it is. And you have a very important role in it. You play the support line. If either of our targets get by me you are to kill them. No hesitation and no emotion. One swift blow and end it all. Got it?" She drops her smile.

       "Ruby you said that I-" she starts.

      "What, wouldn't have to kill? I never said such a thing. You are gonna do it cause I gave you your last chance to back out during initiation. Now are you with me or are you my next target. I'd tell you to ask my last partner what happened but you can't. She is currently six feet underground." I pause to gauge her reaction. "Now Weiss, what is your job?"

       "To stop the targets that get by you. I understand and will carry out my task." She states robotically.

       "Good. Now follow me quietly." I stalk toward the male side of campus. "We are looking for one Russell Thrush and Sky Lark. I have intelligence that states that they spend their waking hours following and torturing a rabbit Faunus named Velvet Scarletina. Our job is to persuade them to stop harassing poor Velvet. If they refuse to change our orders are to eliminate them immediately. Do you understand the objective?"

       "Yes ma'am. I'll use all the necessary force that I can." She says resigned to the fact that she is stuck with this as a path for her. "By any means necessary."

       "Good." A sudden pain strikes through my head like a bolt of lightning. "Kill. It's the only thing you had left. Your mother? Gone. By your hand. Your father? Well... he's on your list too huh? Kill these boys. Kill them. They must die. Everyone must die." Then just like that the pain was gone. And I was left with the strange voice leaving an echo of the word kill in my mind. "I will obey."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       We landed on the roof of the men's dormitory. Waiting for Russell and Sky. "There they are." Weiss says as she points down the courtyard to where the crying Faunus known as Velvet is being tormented by two teenaged punks in all black, slightly gothic clothing. They both wore identical jeans that are a deep shade of black whereas the shirts they wear are a deep crimson.

     "Good eye Weiss. Now we move in. Stick to the roofs and circle behind them. You ARE the last line." She jumps to the next door and disappears. I smile. It's not any normal smile. It's the smile I always wear before a kill. I place my left foot forward and leap off the roof, pushing off that same foot.

      I stick my left arm into the air and grab the nearest tree branch to stop my forward momentum. I take a few seconds to allow my body to stop swinging, then drop to the ground. I land on my left heel and throw my body forward into a roll. Once both my feet are firmly placed on the ground again I take off activating my speed semblance. I flash across the campus and stop in front of the opening to the garden where the boys have been torturing Velvet. I look up and see Weiss in position. "Good"

        I stroll into the garden and clear my throat to get the boys attention. "Excuse me, but I don't think she likes you two idiots messing with her. Now I will give you two options. One-"

       "Bug off bitch. I'm gonna continue to mess with her. And if you say anything you are next." Russell says.

        "One: you two can stop and you will ever see me again. Or two: I'll kill the both of you. You have the choice." Sky throws his right fist at me. "Guess it's option two." I say with a wicked smirk coming to my lips.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       "That was something I could have lived without. I did not need to witness that. I can not believe I saw that. I don't want to believe it. I DON'T believe it. Ruby didn't do that, she couldn't have. She told me she didn't like to kill. Did she lie to me?" I look back to the scene before me. Ruby he just torn the two boys limb from bleeding limb. Literally. With no apparent remorse. "She is a killer. She really... is she crying?" I leap off the roof toward my partner.

       I land next to her, my aura absorbing the hit. I kneel down next to her, and grip her hand. "Ruby? What's wrong?" She looks up at me it there are no tears in her eyes, and she is smiling. "She was laughing?"

       "Nothing is wrong Weiss." She says in a voice I know is it hers. It sounds the same but there is a tone in it that is not what she normally uses. "How could there be? I'm doing what I love most."
