Arc 2: Learn, Adapt, Kill - Chapter 2
Ruby Rose is 15 years old and planning to become the best summoner in the world, showing that she can be better than being a huntress.
Dressed like her volume 1 outfit, which consists of a black long-sleeved blouse with a high collar and red trim on the sleeves, over which is a black waist cincher with red lacing up the front, and a matching skirt with red lining. She also wears a pair of thick black stockings and black combat boots with red laces, red trims around the top, and red soles. A red hooded cloak tops her outfit, fastened to her shoulders by cross-shaped pins.
By the way, did I forget to mention how this is an alternate version of RWBY? Yeah? Because what the fuck? Ruby's age is 15, and she has the body of a busty that is nearing Nyarla's level of sexy body. Something that no 15 years girls should have at all. Maybe 18 or so, but not 15!
I feel like I'm in a messed up hentai version of RWBY going by Ruby's body alone and her background.
Anyway, unlike in the canon, Ruby is inspired to become a huntress like her deceased mother, Summer Rose. Instead, in this world, she was severely put down by how awful that idea was to the point even her honorary uncle, Qrow Branwen, who suppose to train her personally, sided with the others to stop Ruby from becoming a huntress. As a result of causing Ruby gains the trauma of not wanting to become one anymore and has very low self-esteem, anything related to huntsmen, due to the harsh words inflicted by her own family as a way to shelter her from the cruel world.
Lucky for Ruby, as being one of the most important people in the world. She obtained another path to become something more significant as her plot armor. She found a guidebook on becoming a summoner that can form contracts with foreign entities outside her reality. As to where she found it, even I knew someone had a hand in this. Seeing how Ruby got it through, an ad popped up in one of the videos she was watching while being trapped alone in a house that isn't a home but more of a prison to her.
So, Ruby being naive as she is, and by that, I mean she wasn't taught lots of things as a way to prevent her from being able to survive without her family's help. Going far as to learn a few examples from her family without them realizing it. However, she brought the guidebook on summoner by using one of the credit cards lying around in the house that just happened to be the right amount for the purchase.
Long story short, the guidebook arrived literally a minute after purchase, pushing the delivery box through the small entry at the bottom of the door for mail to go through.
Ruby was smart enough to understand not to let her family discover this guidebook and did her best not to let it be discovered as she studied it until she performed her first summoning, which turned out a success as she managed to summon me. Furthermore, she is brilliant in programming and engineering through self-taught and experimenting, able to hack the scroll to access many sources of information on the internet and later recreate a scroll with junk parts that work at the same level as the scroll she secretly used before putting it back where it originally was. Sadly, in this world, the information on the internet isn't much—other than a few combat-related things and porn. So her talent in programming and engineering won't shine that much.
I don't know why or whatever reason the people in this world were thinking, instead of common basic knowledge to share with anyone using the internet. There are combats and porn, barely anything else.
What the fuck.
So, almost all of this was explained to me by Ruby herself for nearly an hour now. While there were some parts, I quickly figured out myself through the hints that Ruby didn't realize she had revealed.
Anyway, I needed to find out more, and through Invasion, to learn that lucky for Ruby. She wasn't physically abused, but I can't say the same for her mental health. I can already see the signs of her nearing her point of snapping and killing her family in their sleep while going completely insane, leading her to become a serial killer, and seeing the many things Ruby had created over the years as a child.
It wouldn't be a surprise if Ruby could easily kill off her family without waking others after killing the first one.
In addition, through Ruby's point of view, I can tell the looks she was getting from her father, Taiyang Xiao Long, was looking at her in a way that felt wrong. Again, this makes me feel like I'm in a hentai version of RWBY. Crazy voices; I'm 99% sure the Boss sent me into this AU RWBY hentai version on purpose, with someone like Ruby being assigned to me. It was like the Boss daring me to fuck Ruby before anyone could and claim her as mine.
In fact, I'm willing to bet on my life that Ruby would have summoned something else. Something that would rape Ruby without her realizing what she had summoned. Mostly with tentacles. Making Ruby's life more miserable than it already is.
It's good that she summons me: no tentacles and I won't be raping her.
I pause momentarily, then realize I can technically use Boundary Manipulation to make tentacles.
I lift my left hand, pushing my glasses up. And yes, for any of you crazy voices wondering. It's the Lust Detection Glasses. I have been wearing it ever since I got it. Plus, it's very stylish and matches my attire. By no means was I using this to see if Ruby was horny. Nope.
Actually, I don't think Ruby even knows what sex is, as the porn on the internet didn't explain anything. And any of you perverts, Ruby watched lots of porn and didn't know what was happening. Other than knowing lots of people does it.
"And this is my progress in learning how to become a better summoner!" Ruby showed me a couple of notes of many things she had learned since she obtained her guidebook.
"Some parts are wrong, but overall, you've done excellent work." I praise Ruby, causing her to look at the ground shyly. "So, any questions?"
Ruby nods, with her eyes hinting at the insanity that barely locked away, "Yeah! Can you take me out of this place?!"
"Sure." I had no reason to deny Ruby's request.
"Can we go now?! I'd like us to leave now!" Ruby starts shaking me, but due to our body sizes being different. All she was doing was pulling onto my vest. Not strong enough to cause the buttons to be undone.
"Calm yourself." I poke Ruby on the nose, causing her to be crosseyed as she stares at my finger poking her. "Don't you need to pack up first?"
"Oh yeah! Silly me." Ruby giggles, then quickly move around to pack up the things she wants to take with her.
She isn't fast as her canon version, who has her Aura unlocked and discovers her Semblance at a young age. Make me wonder what would happen if I got someone to unlock Ruby's Aura while she has access to a different energy source to use her abilities as a summoner. Or maybe I can give her Nen instead, which would give her better various abilities compared to Aura of RWBY.
Either way, I wonder how things will take place now that Ruby is a summoner rather than a huntress since she lacks combat skills at her current age compared to her canon. Although her talent in programming and engineering would make up for that, adding me into the picture in protecting her would give her a better lifestyle once she finds a place to call home. Plus, if things come to it, Ruby can perform another summoning. Of course, I'll be nearby to make sure whoever or whatever she summons doesn't end up killing her or experiencing something worse than death.
"Jin! Help?" Ruby gives me puppy eyes as she shows that her small backpack is already filled with many things and has no space for the rest of the other stuff she wants to bring. I can already see some things were about to spill out any second now.
I snap my fingers, causing my shadow to expand, and I drag everything into the pocket dimension inside my shadow.
"How did you do that?!" Ruby poked my shadow out of curiosity, not caring if there were any dangers in touching with her bare skin—fingertip alone or not.
"Parts of my many abilities." I replied, not revealing anything honestly, but I have many methods to help Ruby if needed.
Holy shit, I now realize something crazy voices! Ruby is just a beginner summoner that's extremely lucky getting me, who can protect her and help her grow to become someone powerful. Even more, if she is taken with me to other worlds instead of staying. Although, unlike Nyarla, Ruby is beyond weak. She is weaker than her canon version, and she isn't even trained in any form of self-defense other than knowing how to hide better while stalling for time until her family decides not to bother her any further when they got something important to attend.
"Summer! I'm home! WHERE ARE YOU?!" An older man shouted throughout the house.
The next thing I know, Ruby is hanging off my back, shaking like a leaf in deep fear.
Right, trauma girl here, and her whole cheery personality is mostly her fake mask to hide how frightened she is the entire time living in this prison so-called home of her family.
Also, Summer? Damn, I was right about how Taiyang was looking at Ruby wrong, and I should've done better research through Ruby's memory from her point of view. But, then again, I had never done this before with Invasion. Nevertheless, I guess Taiyang has reached his limit, and it wasn't doing Ruby any good with her body figure that could easily seduce many men with weak will.
Bad enough, it seems Taiyang's unstable mind had set that Ruby is the reincarnation of his dead wife and wants to feel that special moment, aka he is damn horny and hasn't had sex for a long time. No doubt it was killing him inside while dealing with Yang growing up, then Ruby growing into her present figure must have seriously broken him.
Again, I feel like this is a messed up hentai version of RWBY, and the day isn't even over yet. Well, at least Ruby doesn't seem to pretend to be okay around me and isn't secretly afraid of me.
"Summer! Please! LET ME HOLD YOU AGAIN!" Taiyang screamed, not caring how loud he was.
Of course, with a house built far away from other people and almost deep into the woods. Taiyang could do unspeakable things out here, and no one would notice.
Ruby begins to mumble and continues to shiver crazily. Yeah, after dealing with Taiyang and taking Ruby away from here. I will have to perform a deep scan of her memory to prepare to take care of her. No matter how stupid that is and how I'm invading her privacy. I'm doing this way without triggering her trauma at any point accidentally.
Now, I just need to decide the best methods I should use to calm Ruby down before dealing with Taiyang and also find out if this AU RWBY has anything similar to canon other than the characters themselves and the locations. Especially thinking about if Yang had headed off to Beacon Academy if that is a thing in this world, and figured things out from there.
