"Those who drink the blood of Grimm are cursed to walk among them." For Nix Spherule, this was nothing more than a story to frighten children. But when his village is destroyed by an unknown Grimm, he learns why they should be feared firsthand. Vowing to never let Grimm cause such chaos again, Nix travels to Beacon, where with the help of his new friends, they discover a threat not just to Vale, but to all of humanity.

"What's wrong, Ice Queen?" He puts his arm on the wall, stopping her. "Qrow, I don't have time for this," she turns the other way, then Qrow grabs her arm. "Nothing is wrong, leave me alone." She looks away, Qrow grabs her by the waist.... Her eyes widen.... Winter is dealing with many things; Her father, the general, her comrades, and the war. She tries not to show any pain whatsoever, but that takes advantage with her actions, feelings, and emotions. Qrow is worried about her, beside the feelings, he is worried that if she doesn't let out these feelings, she would fall into the darkness. #Credit to Alcatraz for the cover!# *This is my first ever Rwby fanfic!

~Spin off to Tense~ "We're best friends, right?" "Right." "That's how it's supposed to be right?" "Right." "Then why am I wishing for you to say wrong?" -------- Reyna and Ainsley are SECRET best friends and even if Ainsley hates keeping it a secret she'd do anything for Reyna, even if it means being away from Reyna and her friends. A kiss at a party changes everything for both Reyna and Ainsley but definitely a lot more for Ainsley which causes a lot of change for them which includes secrets, romantic dates, betrayal, lies, and possibly a journey which leads them to taking a mugshot picture...together. Will Ainsley and Reyna stick together as secret best friends through the whole year despite all of the things that might tear them apart? Or perhaps things they could be more? Or less? -------- © Copyright. All rights reserved to Helloitsjess You do not have to read Tense to read this book. What I recommend? I recommend you read the first book because I know damn well you'll be curious on what happened with Angel and Danielle. But this book is a Stand Alone. Meaning, you don't have to read the first book. (: Enjoy reading!
