The Silent Rose (abused and neglected mute reader x rwby)

Chapter Three: The Asshat

Y/n POV

I woke up still back to back with Ruby. The nightmares didn't come last night, thankfully. I got up and put my uniform on to see if it fit. When I finished getting ready, the rest of the team had woken up and was rushing to get ready, me stepping out into the hall to give them privacy.

Suddenly I heard a voice. "Hey, who are you?" It came from a blonde boy from the dorm across the hall.

I activated my holo-screen, "I'm Ruby's brother, Y/n."

He looked surprised, "I didn't know Ruby and Yang had a brother."

"Yeah, they probably didn't talk much about me, because of our... childhood." I said, becoming a little sad.

"Oh, what happened?"

"I would prefer not to talk about it, seeing as it involves 4 years of abuse."

Then another voice came from the dorm. "Juane. Who's out there?"

He turned around and replied, "Apparently it's Ruby and Yang's brother."

"They have a brother?" Said a red head coming around the corner.

I waved. "Hello, I'm Pyrrha Nikos. I can tell your related to Ruby."

I smiled a little, "What gave it away? The fact we look almost identical or the hair?" My screen typed.

"Well, we can't really see your face with the mask on." She said.

My eyes widened, I had put my mask on to hide the scar on my throat, which was still very apparent five years later. I pulled the cloth mask from my mouth, it still covering the scar. "Sorry, I get so used to wearing it that I forget i have it on sometimes." My screen showed.

The boy, Juane I think, spoke up. "Why aren't you talking?"

I was about to say something when Ruby busted through the door and tackled me into a hug.

"Oh, hi guys!" Ruby said, waving to the two standing in their doorway.

"So, this is your brother?" Pyrrha said.

"Yep! We're twins!" She said.

"Twins!?" I heard a new voice yell, followed by a very energetic ginger. "I've never met twins before!"

"Nora!" I heard a boy yell from the room.

"Yes Ren?" The ginger said. She ran back into the room, leaving me even more confused than ever. I was about to ask when I saw the time.

"Hey rubes." My screen wrote.

"Yeah?" She said.

"Classes start at 8, right?" I asked.

Ruby looked nervous, "Yeah, why?"

"Because we have 6 minutes to get to class."

Her eyes widened, she grabbed my arm and pulled me up, yelling to our team that we were going to be late and dragged me though the hall to professor Port's class.

(Port's class)

We sat in class as he told his stories about his childhood, Ruby wasn't paying attention, Blake was reading a book behind a text book, Yang was secretly playing on her scroll, Weiss was somehow getting something from his stories as she was the only one in the class that payed any attention, and I drew.

(Sorry it's sideways, Wattpad is giving me a fight. Also, this is my drawing)

"Woah, that's beautiful." I heard Ruby whisper. I smiled, remembering how I'd picked up this hobby while on the road.

This caught the rest of the team's interest, including Weiss surprisingly.

"Woah, where'd you come up with this?" I heard Yang say.

My screen pooped up a little under the desk and dimmed a little as well, "I don't know, it just appeared in my head. Samething with all of my sketches really."

"Well, I guess one thing good came out of you leaving." She whispered, "You're an artist."

I sat there and thought for a minute. Maybe something good did come out of me leaving, I learned how to fight with uncle Qrow, I'd picked up drawing, and I even knew how to survive in the wilderness.

"Ahem," Prof. Port getting our attention, "Mr. Rose, would you kindly come over here and give an example, please?"

I didn't understand it, until I saw the cage. And the way he asked me to come up gave me the urge to beat someone with a nine iron, but I shrugged it off and took off the jacket of the uniform and walked to the "stage".

"Aren't you going to get your weapon?" He asked.

I shook my head, the blade shot out of my arm and I prepared to fight.

"Alrighty then. Three... two.... start!" He said, taking out his axe/blunderbus and cut the lock off the cage.

The door shot open, a Boarbatusk snorted and charged me. I dashed forward to meet it, hopping onto it's back. I grabbed the tusks and pulled back with all my weight to flip it. Once it did, I quickly took this opportunity to hop above it and stab it's stomach, which was facing upward.

Port clapped at my performance, "Well done, well done. Now class is over, dismissed."

Ruby ran up to me and threw me into a hug. "That was soooooo cool!" She shouted.

The screen lit up again, "Do you have to hug me all the time now?"

She released me, "Oh, sorry. It's just, I haven't seen you in forever."

I smiled and ruffled her hair, embarrassing her.

We walked out of class, I separated from them so I could use the bathroom. When I was finished I walked out and ran into a VERY, douchey looking guy and his cronies.

"Sorry," I said, trying to be polite, hoping he'd give me a reason to punch him in the groin.

"You look a little young to be going here, and I've never seen you before." He took a closer look at me. "Wait a minute, you look like that little bitch with the red cloak."

Perfect, an alibi.

Faster than they saw, I punched this prick in the groin hard enough to, at least, put him into so much pain he won't be able to move for the next hour.

As he bent lower because of the sudden nut cracker (get it?) I pulled him to my face. "Watch your toungue, next time I hear you say something like that, and I'll make sure you can't have kids."

I pushed him into his teammates. They all looked shocked at the events that just transpired. I walked away, back to my team who was probably at the next class.

(Time skip)

Classes had ended and we headed back to our dorm. As we walked I felt like something was going to happen, something bad.

We got to our dorm, safe and sound.

"Maybe it's just me." I thought, till a knock came to the door.

Ruby POV

A knock came to the door suddenly, and I went to answer it. Y/n looked pale suddenly, like something was going to happen.

I opened the door and turned pale myself.

"Hey, Rubes." Dad said. A surprise visit.

He looked around at our team, we had gotten used to having dad pop up for a random visit, but we forgot when Y/n showed up. Dad looked at him, the one time Y/n took his mask off, was now his greatest mistake.

"S-son?" Dad said.

Y/n looked scared, like a cornered animal. He was clearly having a horrific flashback of our childhood. He backed away toward the window, it was open.

"Y-Y/n. W-where have you been?" Dad asked.

Y/n didn't answer. He looked out the window quickly and back to dad. He suddenly jumped out and onto the tree just outside the window, climbing down it and running away, even using his semblance.

I was shocked, he really was terrified of dad still. I thought he said he had gotten over it... I had to find him before he did something to himself, or ran away again.
