4 Getting some outfits?

Ahh!

Waking up from my nightmare with a startle I still have the visages of flying trucks.

'I hate trucks! Especially after I was not only almost hit by one as Ruby but I was killed by dozens of them as Mason.'

Yawning I scratched my head and looked around the room.

'Seems it wasn't a dream, never really expected it to be one but there's always a chance.'

Getting out of bed I began to put on my clothes. Shirt, corset, stockings, skirt, and finally a tattered crimson cloak that shows all the difficulties I went through.

Walking towards the mirror I looked at my unruly hair and tried combing it down with my hands.

Staring as the sides stuck out like normal I sighed. Turning on the tv I looked at some of the news channels to find nothing of interest except crime becoming more active.

Looking over at the clock on the bedside I saw the time was 9am.

'I have some time to finish checking out my system before I set off.'

Opening the system I scrolled through everything to double check if I missed anything.

Landing on the screen that had an 3d model of myself with a list of my current abilities I began to read.

<Silver Eyes>

<Aura>

<Semblance>

<Ageless>

<Large Soul>

'Wait what are Ageless and Large Soul?'

Clicking on Ageless ability I read the description.

Ageless: You will never age past your prime, and can be immune to anything that try's to change that.

-Note: Hey its me Danctrum, I gave you this ability because I didn't want to see you dying of old age while entertaining me. Just more time between you and little old me.

'What the, that asshole of a God gave me agelessness just so I could entertain him longer...'

Shaking my head I clicked my tongue and checked the Large Soul ability.

Large Soul: Your soul is twice the size of a normal mortal soul. With this you will have twice as much aura, magic, and anything else that needs your soul to power it than someone else.

'Well I guess that's to be assumed considering I am a mix of two souls.'

Scrolling through the rest of the system and avoiding the point shop because everything in it requires an absurd amount of points, I soon closed the system.

Taking out my scroll I reset the time so it would show the proper time. I then tried but to no avail connect to any Wi-Fi or anything similar.

'Its to be expected, considering this is not even a phone and instead used the CCT towers.'

Pocketing my scroll I walked to the table with Crescent Rose and put her on my back.

'Alright first thing is first! I need a way to make a name for myself, and to do that I will clean up the crime around the area.'

Gaining a determined look I nodded and thought cheerfully 'It will also solve my money problem!'

Feeling a grumble from my stomach I decided to put off stopping crime for later and instead to do some shopping and get something to eat.

'Well I need to get some food first, then I will do some shopping at clothing stores considering this is my only outfit. I might even find a weapon store!'

Cheerfully leaving the room I soon descended the stares and exited the hotel. Walking on the sidewalks I began my search for a café to eat at.

Walking for awhile I came across a nice café to eat at that gave off a calming feeling. Upon entering I was instantly hit with the strong smell of brewing coffee.

'Hope they have cookies' I thought as I soon went to the front of the café. Seeing the barista I looked at the small display of food that they have.

"Uhh, I would like 10 chocolate chip cookies and 1 medium coffee." I asked as I stared at the display.

The barista quickly asked "How do you take your coffee?"

'Oh shoot, uhhh.'

"Cream and five sugars!" I said quickly as I was blanking for a moment.

The barista stared at me for a moment until she rung up the order.

Paying for my order I waited a couple of minutes until I received my coffee and a bag of cookies.

Opening the bag of cookies at a lightning speed, I ate every single cookie in under 5 seconds.

'Those were good, but I still think mine are better.' I thought as I ignored all the stares of disbelief that were pointed towards myself.

Taking a sip of my over sweetened coffee I exited the café and began to walk around for a couple stores.

'Hmm I need to get daily necessities like my toothbrush, brush, and strawberries. I could do that on my way home, what will take awhile is getting my outfits.' I thought as I roamed the streets for a nice clothing store.

After a little while of roaming the streets it seemed as if fate was looking out for me.

Bumping into a fashionably dressed woman with sunglasses, I fell over. The woman quickly being pulled from her thoughts looked down at me and said.

"Oh my gosh dear, I'm so sorry are you..." The woman stopping mid sentence looked at my outfit and how I looked.

A gleam could be seen in her eyes as she quickly pulled me to a standing position.

"Eep!"

Squeaking out as she pulled me up at lightning speed I watched as she zoomed around myself seemingly looking at every different angle of my person.

"Oh my, where did you get such a dress! It looks perfect on yourself!" The woman exclaimed as she started to try to maneuver myself into different poses.

"Wait! Wait! Stop!" I shouted in protest at all the spinning that she was doing to myself.

The brown haired woman let go of me and quickly said "Oh my apologies, we should of course tell each others names first, my name is Andrienne, but please just call m Rienne."

'Is she serious?' I thought as I nodded towards her.

"Well my name is Ruby Rose, can I ask why you were spinning me a moment ago?" I asked as I was still feeling slightly dizzy.

Andrienne soon gained a look that practically said she knew she messed up.

Laughing out she said "Haha, sorry I tend to lose myself when I see such a beautifully dressed person. Especially when the persons beauty fits the outfit that they're wearing."

Blushing slightly I laughed nervously and said "Yeah thanks..."

I stared more at what she was wearing and noticed that she was probably the best dressed person that I had seen so far in the world of Overwatch.

Being pulled from my thoughts I heard Andrienne ask a question.

"So where did you get such a beautifully tailored dressed, do you know what the fabric is as well? I never felt a fabric that looked so beautiful but felt so strong."

Responding to her question I said "Well it's a combat outfit, and I don't really know what its made of. A friend helped make it but as this is my only outfit I was out looking for a store that sold something similar."

The woman frowning slightly after hearing the first half of my conversation, soon smiled greatly.

"Well if it's outfits that you are looking for, I might be able to help you. I run a small shop down the street. Here come!"

The woman grabbed my hand and dragged me down the street towards her so called shop.

'I don't even know what's happening anymore' I thought as I was now just being dragged towards a store by a woman that I just met.

After a short run we arrived at a large building that said Reinne's Fashion. A line of people could be seen waiting outside of the store as a multitude of workers went about helping people.

'What the, this is a small shop!?' I thought as I stared at the massive fashion store that stood in front of myself.

"Well this is my small shop. Come in, come in! I will repay nocking you over by giving you one free dress."

Staring blankly I watched as she dragged me into the store. All the employees waved at her as we made our way towards the back of the store. Finding ourselves standing before a door I watched as Reinne scanned a card on the door.

The door soon opened up to show a room with a multitude of different pedestals with mannequins on them. Each mannequin had a beautiful outfit, be it a suit or a dress, each one was masterfully made and each had their own feeling that they gave off.

"This is my workshop, where I make the magic happen. Now Ruby, you said you needed and outfit please explain to me what you need." Reinne said as she quickly pulled out a notepad.

Taking a moment to finally understand what happened I hurriedly said "No no, I can just buy something from out front, I don't need all of this!"

Reinne seemed to stare at me for a moment before going off on a terrible rant.

"You are a beautiful person, as such you need a beautiful outfit that suits yourself! You might only need clothes, but I'm doing this to repay what I have done, as such if you say no I will be disgraced!"

Reinne nodded towards her own words and then said "I will make you a new outfit, now tell me what you need for it."

Frowning I thought 'Well, she is right I do need a new outfit. I might as well get one made considering how popular her clothes look to be...'

"Well, for the outfit what is your toughest material? Can it survive getting scratched up some?"

Reinne nodded, stood up and went to a wall with a multitude of different rolls of fabrics. Checking each one she pulled out a black fabric.

"Well this is my toughest fabric, it is somewhat difficult to work with for normal people. But I am the best of the best, here." Reinne said as she handed over the fabric.

Grabbing it I felt how soft it was.

'Oh my gosh this is so soft' I thought as I soon tried pulling on the fabric to see how strong it was.

Watching as my puny strength did nothing Reinne started to chuckle.

"Well of course you cant tear it Rose. This fabric is meant to protect people from stab wounds and slashing from a knife. I have this fabric for people who need an outfit that can survive some ware and tear."

Looking at the fabric I said "Well this would be really good, and for how the dress should look I have a couple pictures that I can show you of what I want?"

Pulling out my scroll I went through a multitude of pictures of team RWBY at beacon until I landed on photos of me in my beacon outfit. Zooming in on the photo I handed my scroll to Reinne.

"This is a strange phone, but never mind that. This dress looks very good and fits you perfectly, but I believe I will tweak it some and make it better." Saying the last part with a grin Reinne moved me towards a pedestal.

"Alright first off I'm going to measure you and then I'm going to begin to design the dress for you. Because I sometimes get combat oriented people I will ask you some questions to make the outfit better suited for your kind of fighting dear." Reinne said as she pulled out a measuring tape.

Nodding towards her I watched as she quickly measured me at a speed that I couldn't even see. Watching as she put away her measuring tape I saw her pull out a sketch pad and pencil.

Reinne looked at my current dress and saw my rose insignia on my shoulder.

"Ok quick question would you like that rose insignia on your outfit? Also did you make it yourself it looks very beautiful."

Listening to her question I nodded and said "Yeah that would help a lot, I designed this because my mother had one that was similar."

Reinne nodded and sketched down the rose insignia, she then asked.

"Alright so what kind of fighting do you do? Are you usually fighting up close or from far away? Also don't move I'm sketching an outfit." Reinne reprimanded me as she began to sketch me.

"Uhh, well I fight usually at high speeds so I need to be able to move easily. That's why I used a combat skirt most of the time." I said in a timid voice as I didn't move.

Reinne quickly asked me a question with a confused face.

"What do you mean high speeds? Do you run or are you flying?"

I listened to Reinnes question and tried to come up with an answer. Not having any answer I decided to just show off to her, even if a semblance wasn't normal I felt like that Reinne wouldn't tell anybody.

"Well I can show you if you want?" I asked as I scratched my head.

Reinne looked confused for a moment and said "Alright show me, I'm intrigued by what you will show so I hope its exciting."

'Oh it will definitely be exciting' I thought as I nodded towards her.

"Well this is Crescent Rose, it's a high impact, customizable sniper rifle that also act's as a scythe!" I said as I pulled out Crescent Rose.

Chunk Clunk!

The sound of Crescent Rose transforming sounded throughout the room as I held her behind my back.

Looking at the scene you could see a girl standing on a pedestal seemingly posing for a painting as she held a massive red scythe behind her back.

'I think I broke her...' I thought as I stared as Reinne who had her mouth hung agape.

'Better show her what I can do before she is really broken.' I thought as I activated my semblance.

Rose petals flew across the room as I sped to the door of the room. Mid way to the door I turned into a cloud of petals and flew towards the door. Reforming I landed in front of the door and turned around smirking as I transformed Crescent Rose back into a rectangle.

Sadly what I saw was something that I would come to regret.

Looking back I could see Reinne smiling in a creepily fashion as she was mumbling to herself untill she shouted.

"Yes! You will be perfect, my masterpiece! The roses, the outfit, the scythe! Everything about you gives off a energy that will help me perfect an outfit made just for you!"

Reinne ran towards me and pulled me back onto the pedestal. Taking out her sketch book she started to sketch me. After some time she finished a sketch of me wearing a beautiful dress that looked similar to my dress I wore before Beacon.

"Alright, I have the first dress now I need the others!" Reinne said as she began to madly draw outfit after outfit on her sketchpad.

Watching as she began to draw me in different kinds of outfits, I said "Wait I only need 1 dress! I don't even think I can afford all of the outfits that you are drawing!"

Reinne took a moment to look up at me. Looking at me she eyed me from head to toe like a predator until she said something that I would later regret hearing.

"Well my beautiful Rose, I have decided that you will be my masterpiece! As such I will make you outfits for free as long as you sign an agreement saying you will only wear my outfits. I will also need to take some photos of you wearing the outfits but that's not important."

Shaking her hand as if she was swatting a fly she asked "So what do you think? Good deal? Great, now stop moving so I can draw some more outfits!"

'I am going to regret this, aren't I?' I thought as I watched her draw a multitude of dresses, outfits, and just casual clothes for myself.

After about 2 hours she finally stopped drawing. Sighing I stopped standing and plopped down on the ground.

'Oh my gosh she is finally done!' I thought as I was spared from standing any longer.

Reinne closed her notepad and said "Alright Ruby, here is the deal. I am going to finish the casual outfits and sleep wear first, and then I will finish the dress. It will take me about until the end of the day to finish the casual outfits and sleep wear. The dress will take about a day to finish if I rush it."

Nodding towards Reinne in a thankful manner I said "Thank you a lot for making these outfits, I don't know what I would do if I didn't have anymore combat skirts! I can come back later today towards the evening if you want?"

Reinne nodded towards the door and said "Yes yes, that's good. Now I must get these outfits made for you my beautiful Rose. Oh yes and sign this agreement!"

Reinne pulled out a paper that needed my signature and handed it towards me. Reading of the paper I saw that it was mostly just saying that I can't wear other clothing brands without consent of Reinne, and that I would have to take photoshoots of new outfits.

Signing the paper I thought 'What's the worst that could happen, I get free outfits and just have to do a photoshoot every now and then.'

Handing the paper with my signature I watched as Reinne stood up and walked over to a sowing table I saw as she began to masterfully craft outfits.

'Is she some kind of God of clothing?' I thought as I saw how fast she was sowing an outfit together while looking at her sketchbook.

Looking away I pulled out my scroll and checked the time. 'What the it's already 12!? How long did I spend in here?' I thought as I looked at my scroll.

"Alright I am leaving now I will see you later tonight Reinne! Also thank you again!" I said as I smiled towards her in a grateful manner.

Watching as she waved me away I walked towards the door and exited her design room. Walking through her clothes shop I walked out and began to plan out my day.

'Alright so I have pretty much everything solved, now I just need more money. I would try to get a passport or and ID but considering I have no history at all in this world that would be dumb. So the best thing I can do is steal from thugs for now...'

With those thoughts I put up my hood and put my cloak around myself. Ignoring the looks of people who saw a red riding hood look alike, I began walking towards alley ways to begin my gathering of money.

*6 Hours Later*

Few!

Wiping sweat from my forehead I looked towards the group of thugs who were running away from myself. Feeling my bulging wallet I smiled and began walking away.

'Well that was tough, I have a lot more money now though.' I thought as I felt my wallet which was now about 10000 pounds fuller.

Checking my scroll I saw that it was getting late and that I was hungry from not taking a lunch break.

'Let's get some food at that pub, I think I might try the fish and chips.' I thought as I activated my semblance.

Fwishh!

Traveling at high speeds I soon made it out of the alley way and entered the street. Dodging people I soon stopped and landed on my feet. Ignoring the people looking at me I began a short jog to the pub that I found the night before.

Upon reaching the pub I soon entered it and felt the cheerful atmosphere that surrounded the entire place. Looking at all the people laughing, drinking, and eating truly helped to ease up the tensions of the day.

Sitting down at the same seat in the corner I pulled down my cloaks hood and waited for the bartender to come by. Waiting for a couple moments I watched as the bartender exited the kitchen and deliver food to people at the bar.

Walking towards me he said "Oh it's you again. Great to see your back, do you want a menu today?"

Shaking my head as I already knew what I wanted I said "I would like the fish and chips today please. Could I also have a coke."

Nodding towards my order the bartender smiled and went away to prepare my dinner.

Listening in on conversations I was soon interrupted as someone who I never thought to see arrived at the pub, and that was Tracer AKA Lena Oxton.

'What the! Why is she here? I thought she would be with Overwatch considering it's only been a year after he accident?' I thought as I watched her walk into the pub and search for someone.

Quickly looking away hoping that she didn't see me, I tried to act natural by waiting for my food.

If Fate was looking out for me before, then it wasn't any longer as it seemed tracer found who she was looking for.

Walking towards me she sat down on the stool next to me while waiting for the bartender to take her order.

'Oh come on! Why me! I did want attention, but I never thought that Overwatch would respond this quickly to my semblance use...' I thought as I eyed her from the side.

Acting normally I waited for the bartender to come back while being inwardly nervous that Tracer was next to me in a casual outfit, that shockingly looked good on her even as it hid her translocator.

After a couple minutes the bartender exited the kitchen and came out with my order. Approaching me he smiled and handed me the order of fish and chips.

"Here you go miss, the fish and chips." The bartender said as he handed me my food.

The food was 3 pieces of fried fish and an order of fries. If you smelled it you could smell a delicious fried smell and a little tang of lemon.

Drooling slightly at the food that was put in front of myself I soon forgot about Tracer sitting next to me.

Taking a bite out of the food I soon moaned slightly and said "Mhm! This is so good!"

Quickly shoveling some food into my mouth I entirely forgot that Tracer was next to me until she said "That good luv? Bartender I'll order what she has!"

Being pulled from my thoughts on how good the food was I acted like a deer in headlights and stared at her.

Tracer watching me smirked and said "Everything good luv? Like what you see?"

Choking slightly on my food I coughed and shook my head.

Laughing nervously I said "Hehe, no sorry I just didn't see you sit next to me."

Tracer smiled and began having a conversation with me by asking.

"So where you from? You don't sound like a Brit so I'm guessin you from America?"

Looking at Tracer I said "Well I'm not exactly from America, I'm from a small island off the East Coast called Patch."

Having a flash of Rubys memories while growing up on Patch I shook myself out of them and asked "So did you grow up here in London?"

'Ha saved it!' I thought as I took a bite of my food and waited for tracer to answer my question.

"Well I grew up here in London, lovely place innit. Although recently it has begun to become riddled with criminals and terrorists its still my home." Tracer said in a melancholy voice.

Loosing her sadness Tracer put on a happy face and asked "So luv, what do you do for a living?"

'Damnet! Uhhhh say something!' I thought as I took far longer to answer than I should have.

Coming up with something I said "Well I am an engineer/mechanic. I build some weapons or fix things up when I'm able to. What about you?"

Tracer ignoring how long I took to answer the question soon replied "Well I'm a fighter. I want to change the world for the better so I recently joined Overwatch. Used to a pilot but got tired of it."

Tracer eyeing me for how I responded to her saying she worked for Overwatch was interrupted as the bartender handed Tracer and order of fish and chips.

Tracer receiving the food said a quick thank you and looked at her food. Take a quick bight out of it she responded the same way I did.

"Oh wow! This is really good, I can see why you responded how you did."

Watching that happy atmosphere of the pub and Tracer eating soon helped ease my thoughts of being in a different world.

'Guess people are always going to be the same no matter what universe your in.' I thought gratefully.

Nearly finishing my food Tracer held out her hand towards me and said "Nearly forgot to ask for your name, mine is Lena Oxton."

Looking at her protruding hand I soon shook it and responded with "Ruby Rose"

Taking out my scroll I saw that it was nearly night and remembered that I had to go get the outfits from Reinne.

"It seems that I have to go, it was nice meeting you Lena. I will be eating here often so feel free to drop by and keep me company" And with that I payed my bill and started to walk out the door.

Tracer seeing that I was about to leave quickly swallowed her food and said "Oi wait a moment luv!"

Watching as tracer tried to maneuver the crowd of the pub I put up my hood and exited the pub.

Tracer seeing this quickly blinked around people to get to the entrance only to find a floating trail of rose petals flying in the air.

"Huh guess she really is fast." Tracer said to nobody as she was watching the rose petals fly down to the ground.
