From Darkness, I Rose (Abused Dark Rabbit Male Reader X RWBY)

Y/n was always treated like dirt. He acted like it didn't bother him, but deep down inside. . . He was breaking. It was only a matter of time before his mask broke. He never blamed anyone, he only told those who helped him that he was fine and didn't need help. He didn't want help because he though he would be a burden to them.

Then he met the Rose/Xiao-long/Branwen family; being taken in by Qrow, he saw the old bird as his father. Qrow and Raven would always care for him, and the rest of the family did too. . . Until one day. They were fed up with Y/n 'leeching' off of them and began abusing him. They lied to Qrow and Raven, saying that Y/n ran away and they tried to look for him; only to find pieces of tattered clothing and blood in the woods.

Y/n became extremely numb to pain, broken ribs feeling like a slight tingle before his aura quickly fixed it. His aura became stronger to compensate for it constantly being broken. Y/n had been pushed past his breaking point, becoming a silent husk of his former self. He never yelled out in pain when struck or cut by his abusers. Y/n found himself craving love, despite his emotionless disposition. He was motivated to escape, as well as annoyed at his situation.

Like a phoenix, he will rise from his own ashes. . .

Born anew. . .
