chapter 49
*author sits on his desk chair and sips from a cup labeled "my readers tears"*
Author:ah.... let's see how much I can fuck you all up emotionally
Last time
*The major said giving ruby his hand, ruby frowned thinking about it. Ultimately she shook his hand making a deal with a devil in order to save thousands*
Now
Present
Ruby:so yeah, that's pretty much it. I don't free his slave, and in exchange he gives me the information I need to free slaves from other corporation, like the atlas military, or schnee corporation, which as many slaves as max has. It still doesn't hold a candle to those two combine, of course the money is a nice bonus
Jaune:damn...here I thought you were chaotic good, I think your more a mix of chaotic good and lawful evil
Ruby:I have no idea what your talking about
*Jaune looked nervous and had an awkward smile, trying to bring back that light atmosphere that was in the room from before*
Jaune:oh uh, it's something from a board game it's a long list, but chaotic good is " I selflessly put the needs of others before my own. I defy social norms and challenge authority in order to help those oppressed by it" and you totally do that saving slaves and all that, but lawful evil is " I put the selfish needs of myself above the needs of others. And I will take advantage of the rules and traditions of society in order to keep others beneath me"and you taking advantage of those under Max's rule even taking money from him
Ruby: while true, but to be fair, I can't exactly survive on saving slaves, it's what I'm gonna do till I die, but I still need money for food. And I do end up giving a good chunk of money away so those who need it
*Ruby thought with a shrug thinking over those two alignment not being sure which one she actually belongs in. But she waved her hand dismissing it at the back of her head*
Jaune:that's why I'm saying your a mix of them both
Ruby:humans are complicated creatures, pretty boy. Giving the day, or circumstances we could be the kind person on earth, or the cruelest. And I feel like you want to say something angel face
*Ruby said looking at Pyrrha with a small smile. Pyrrha licked her lips unsure on what to say, she opened her mouth and started talking*
Pyrrha:I...I don't know what to say, glad velvet's not here if you knew that
Ruby:that what?
*Ruby said with a frown looking at Pyrrha, if this was drunk ruby, she would've probably just dismissed her with some snarky comment, not really caring for her opinion. But sober ruby wasn't having any of it. Pyrrha crossed her arms and looked at her*
Pyrrha:that you just abandoned those people do die
Ruby:oh yeah, because you do SOOOO much to free people. Tell me nikos, how many people have you freed? How many times did you think you wouldn't see the sunrise again huh? How many times you wished the bullet wound infection would kill you only to be healed and having to repeat the process?
*Ruby said still smiling but her tone and tail, were telling Glynda and Jaune, that ruby was getting angry. Pyrrha wanted to argue, but she had no room to talk, she sighed and crossed her arms*
Pyrrha:I don't know, I just didn't think someone as amazing as you, would just abandoned all those people, here I got this thought in my head that you would be some kind of rough around the edges hero. I .... I guess imma just disappointed
Ruby: no offense angel face, but I don't really care for your opinion on how I do things
*Ruby said in an uncaring way that made Pyrrha mad that ruby was just dismissing her feelings, were they wrong feelings to have? Debatable. But Pyrrha still had a right to express them, and not be ignored out right like ruby was doing*
Ruby: I was never gonna be able to save everybody, even If i had ur the resources in the world the number of slaves I would be able to save would be minimal. Your a good person Pyrrha, really you are, but you are far for lack of a better word stupid when it comes do this subject
Pyrrha:excuse me? Did you just say I was stupid? This coming from the girl too stubborn to learn how to read or right?
*Now ruby was angry, Pyrrha was spitting out things, ruby didn't want someone like glynda to hear. Ruby gave a hot angry laugh and glared at Pyrrha*
Ruby:well sorry I didn't exactly get an education to LEARN how to do that. But I'm sure little miss champion knows ALL about struggling right? Since I'm sure someone as smart as you knows that real change happens with the leaders
*Glynda frowned since even if she didn't like it either, ruby was telling the truth. Especially since ozpin preaches for change but never forces for change*
Ruby:, so why not shoot that glare at ozpin, since last i checked, ozpin, ironwood, Ghira, etc. all the leaders of this cursed planet allow slavery to happen and don't do a damn thing about it. Oh wait you can't, because if you do there goes your oh so precious title miss champion. Pfff please what a joke, I could beat someone as pathetic as you in my sleep. And do some actual good with the money
Pyrrha: pathetic?! You have no idea the amount of training if done, the bones I've broken, the blood I spilled to be on the top! And what do I to with my fame? I speak out against slavery, I donate my winnings to charities to help buy and give them there freedom. I do my fair share to fix this broken system that we have, just because it's not the same as you does that give you the right to think less of what I do!
*Pyrrha said her voice getting louder as both girls, were angry at the other, while glynda just watched writing down and waiting for things to get too far before she steps in*
Glynda "this is completely healthy, both girls need to say what they feel if they're ever to deepen there friendship"
*Glynda thought, since both Pyrrha and ruby were just tired, but it is when we let things out even if it's through exploding on another that true healing can begin*
Ruby: and how many have you "saved" 2-4 maybe a bakers dozen?, cry me a fucking river. At least my way I can save a large number of slaves, how do you think I've been able to save over 8,000 slaves by myself in the 5 years I've been an outlaw? It certainly wasn't sitting on my ass entertaining the rich miss champion
*Ruby said with a hiss and sarcasm deep in her voice, jaune was looking in-between the two nervously, he tried to deescalate the situation*
Jaune:n..now girls let's all take a second to breath and
Ruby & Pyrrha:shut up Jaune!!
* Both girls screamed making the boy shrunk in on himself, without realizing it both ruby and Pyrrha were standing up face to face, well face to chest but ruby was looking up*
Ruby:So yes. I made a deal with a different devil in order to save as many as I can, and as for those I'm abandoning? There just unlucky. Hell the only reason I'm free is because I got lucky nothing else! So don't you dare judge me when you haven't got a foot to stand on!
Pyrrha:oh I'll judge you plenty, how can you let those people be treated as you, how many of them are being raped like Jake raped you?!!
*The room got silent as Pyrrha slapped her mouth to shut up but it was far too late. Just by looking in her eyes she could tell how much those word hurt ruby. Ruby was feeling so many emotions, but her clear mind just did the most logical thing, ruby turned around and started walking to her room*
Pyrrha:r..ruby i...
Ruby: I'll tell you this much Pyrrha fucking nikos, is there is a god only he can judge me, and if he is to judge me, then let him judge me for those I left to rot. You on the other hand can never judge me since you can't even comprehend everything I had to go through. Now get out, I want you out of this House. Pretty boy make sure that happens
*Pyrrha tried to say something but no words would come out as ruby walked away. Jaune got up and for the first time since she met him, actually looked scary in pyrrhas eyes as he placed his hand firmly on her shoulder*
Jaune:come on, both of you need some time to cool off. I'm... I'm sorry for my friend's outburst Miss goodwitch
Glynda:yes. I believe that would be for the best
*Jaune sternly made Pyrrha moved, and she did. All the anger was gone, now all both girls felt was pain, regret, and sorrow. Things that they'll have to work through if they ever want to get better*
