Rwby: Before The Dawn Novels & Stories

So who is clinging on to me? "Lowan?" I whispered under my breath. "S-Sorry, Ross. I'm not really comfortable in the dark anymore unlike before," he replied whispering to my ear, tightening his grip. "I actually don't mind. Hang onto me until you feel safe," I replied as I lightly patted his hand on my arm. Suddenly, the dark was slightly dispelled by a mysterious glow. I realized that it was only dark because a cloud covered the moon; now that the cloud has passed, it revealed a full moon that shone directly to the water which illuminated the surroundings. We saw Ms. Reina facing all of us with her gentle smile. The faint glow of the brook and the sudden appearance of fireflies made her loo

Dawn growled, her golden form lunging at a wraith, claws slashing, decay exploding, the obsidian light glinting in her eyes, the plateau’s chill a call to battle, the frosted shale trembling, Tess’s fire a flame, the Veilshatter Echoes a thrum, the pack’s legacy a fire, the battle a frozen storm. The shard’s hum reached a crescendo, the obsidian runes blazing, the ground within the chasm splitting, a decayed form rising, the Veilshatter Echoes’ champion, a Decay Weaver, its form a mass of decay and frost, eyes glowing obsidian, its roar shaking the plateau, the chasm’s walls flaring, the air crackling with dark magic, the petrified trees trembling, the pack’s tattoos glowing, their howls a d

"I know because I was becoming the same thing. Angry. Bitter. Ready to burn everything down because no one ever taught me how to build." Raven's eyes were wet. She blinked fast, hard, trying to push the tears back. "You think that makes us the same?" "I think it makes us human." They stood there, two women in a hallway, the sounds of the gala muffled behind closed doors. The cameras were gone. The guests were gone. Raven's armor had cracked, and underneath was something Brianna recognized. Something that looked like grief. Dawson moved first. He stepped between them, not to block, just to stand. His hand found Brianna's. His fingers laced through hers.

It gave us the advantage. “ATTACK!” Wyatt said and took off to help his warriors. I have been feeling each death that was happening around the U.S. The numbers were staggering but I tried to stay focused to watch Raven take down Devin. She stalked him like a lion does his prey. Devin shifted into his wolf that was smaller than Raven but was thick with muscle. I felt Raven bring the electricity to the surface and my whole body was sending off little blue sparks as she walked to him. It caused him to pause for a second and look at them before he decided it was not anything to be concerned about.

Dawson said to me, as he rushes over to my side. “You have to distract it with your magic. Try to create an illusion in its mind and I will aim for the perfect spot to kill” It was a perfect idea. I touched my golden necklace to realize that it was glowing heavily. “Lets do this” I said and latched unto his hand and got up to my feet. I picked the sword from his hand and Dawson rushed for the attack. The Wyvern was also running towards its direction, ready to force a blow with its mouth. I closed my eyes and allowed the environment drown in silent.

Drake’s POV – I stir awake to the faint echoes of battle still humming through the air. The scent of blood clings to the wind, but the fighting is ending—our men and Baylee’s wolves are finishing off the last of the rogues. It doesn’t take long. When it’s over, Ben taps me, and I open my eyes with a groan, blinking as the sunlight hits me full in the face. “Damn, that’s bright,” I mumble, shielding my eyes. Beside me, Dain groans too, clutching his head as the last traces of poison seep from my body. Caron’s potion is working—cleansing, pushing out the darkness.

Dave roared. Dave surged forward with explosive speed, his broadsword sweeping through the air in a brilliant arc of golden-blue light. With brutal, calculated precision, he intercepted the leading wave of shadow-wraiths, shattering their dark forms into harmless mist with a single shockwave of kinetic force.Across the courtyard, Laura did not wait for the secondary wave to strike. She raised both hands, her dual-toned core flaring with breathtaking brilliance as she summoned her ultimate defense—the Dawn Shield.

I breathed him in, and I breathed again, and again, and each breath was a victory. “Water,” Brynn said, and someone pressed a waterskin to my lips. The water was cold. I swallowed, choked, swallowed again. It tasted like life. “Slowly,” Brynn murmured, running his hand steadily in my hair. “Slow, my love. You’re with us. You’re safe.” I drank until my throat finally remembered how to work, and until I could force my eyes open properly and keep them open. It was dawn, looking at how dark it was with the bleeding dawn filtering through black branches.

ADAM We arrived in Rayuwa five days after I received the call from my mother. The weather had a lot to do with the delay. We realised that Rayuwa was better than how we left it. I was glad the deity took our bargain seriously, and my stomach began to churn, realising we would soon have to sacrifice innocent virgins to fulfil our end of the bargain. I began to wonder when the bloodshed would end.

Ruby eyes blinked in the morning mist, eyes that looked vaguely familiar to her. “Oh my god, oh my god,” her breathing was becoming erratic, her heart beating like a rabbit, as she watched the incredible vision unfold before her. “Madchen, it’s ok,” Drago had a death grip on her arm, trying to calm her, but who could be calm at a time like this??
