Summary
Raven Branwen is a cocky, ruthless leader- but there are still a few things that melt even her cold, dead heart. So when a promise made presents her with an opportunity, she takes it. 9 years later, she is in possession of one of the most powerful weapons on Remnant: Ruby Rose, a half-Grimm girl.
Corrupted by a mysterious witch and rescued by an aunt who may or my not have ulterior motives, Ruby lives between two worlds. Most see her as a freak. Some see her as a weapon. She aspires to be like the mother she never met, but she is the very thing a huntress is sworn to destroy. Her aunt Raven wards her away from that life, but is the bandit life all it's cracked up to be? Her found family have used her powers to make her the most dangerous weapon the Branwen Tribe has ever seen- but when she learns she has a whole other family on the other side of the world, what will she do?
