However, Ruby grew to dislike most of them as they seemed to have had a square view on what they thought would make a 'perfect girl'. Constant nagging and attempted corrections from her servants in response to her behavior made her grow increasingly resistant as she grew older and smarter. As she started seeing through their behavior, she grew rebellious, doing whatever she liked instead while letting others take responsibility for her actions. During most of her life, there was only one person she really trusted and could relate too, a butler named Jack Lake. He was nice to her and seemed to get her. He earned her trust over the years from her childhood through kindness and compassion. Ruby liked him a lot and continued to do so even as she grew older. He became somewhat of a father figure for her as she didn't see her real father very often and had grown to dislike him.

Being a lone child was quite tough, she had to shoulder whatever her parents tried to put on her, from learning how to act like a proper young lady to satisfy her mothers ideals. To how to run a company, from the ideals of her father. One moment she could be learning how to dance waltz and other dances, another she could be studying economics. It was tiresome, and the only way Ruby really got to vent was during her free time when she took to unleash pent up emotions often through her quirk and physical training. Interestingly enough, one of the few ways Jack helped her was by helping her train in Dragon-Fu, a somewhat combined material arts practice with dragon like abilities added in. He also helped her stretch, and actually helped her practice dancing in a fun way by teaching her that it could be used both in combat and interactions as it was important to be able to move around securely while also having attention on opponents and respond to their moves with her own.

Her young life was pretty much what one would expect, from an early age she was raised mostly by the servants and they became somewhat more of a family to her than what her real one ever was. As a child she hadn't started to dislike anyone just yet, but she had gotten some bad experiences from interacting with her parents.

The older she got, the less people she started to trust, mostly because there was too many folks to listen too and too few she could really relate with and feel like she belonged. They treated her as a little princess, and while they spoiled her, they also required a lot from her in return. Ruby learned that her parents thought they could just buy her affection if needed, but the older she got, the more she realized that they didn't realize how smart she was becoming.

The biggest moment in her life was probably when she started developing her quirk. She started growing horns and wings, suddenly turning more dragon like. It was difficult at first getting used to it, and she often accidentally sat fire to something which she ended up getting scolded for. As she grew, so did her appetite. She turned into somewhat of a glutton, wanting food very often, so much her servants thought she was going to get fat. Since it was 'unladylike' to eat a lot, they tried to restrict her.

It was another factor that made her stop liking most of the people around her. She started sneaking into the kitchen to grab whatever she could find. The chef however caught her, and wanted to teach her a lesson by putting out red hot chili peppers on the table, something to make her regret eating it. However, it turned out that it backfired as Ruby loved the taste of them; having a breath that literally could set things on fire, spicy things were nothing but treats and candy to her.

Growing into a teenager puberty would hit at some point. The spur of growth and development would be a time where she would wreck down all the foundations of her past life and test all limits. It was a time of big change, one that would make her into the girl she is today. From learning more advanced things to turning from a rather 'obedient' girl to a rebellious teenager.

Learning how to fight, how to lead, how to dance, and how to do difficult calculations. She grew more and more self reliant, trusting only Jack whom she shared just about all her teenage problems with. From the really embarrassing stuff to fun and games. She was just glad to have him around.

It all really started on a rainy Monday, with black and gray filling the sky. Rain was beating towards the roof like small nails falling from above and Ruby was extra sulky because she couldn't go outside. While rain was not dangerous to her she din't like the cold rain, nor was she technically allowed too go outside either, but there was few things except for chains that could stop her if she really wanted too. It hadn't been a bad day, but Ruby was in a foul mood anyway. She was just getting tired of being locked up, locked in and forced to become a princess. Most of her life she had never really left the estate, only gone outside to play in the yard as a child or go for walks in the sun. Of course, there was those occasional moments when she got into a car to get driven to an airport or wherever her parents sent her.

Between starring out car windows, airplane windows, reading or watching television about it, Ruby had hardly ever seen nature in its full beauty. It was what made her feel trapped inside, A feeling fueled quite a bit by herself too since she probably could have run away if she wanted too, but there was a wide unknown world outside.

Tapping on her computer that she at least was allowed to have, Ruby checked the various pages and news that she used too. An article about heroism and heroes that popped up on the front page drew her attention as usual; various heroes performing large deeds so that people like herself could live a normal boring life. Ruby was jealous of them, they could be out there in the heat of the moment, fight crime and whatever. And here she sat, bored to death by the weather, and freaking starving since dinner hadn't been served yet.

A few more clicks got her to a forum which she used to rant, she found herself often writing about her daily troubles without revealing who she was or what they technically was about. Using her username "Red_Lake". She had just wrote a short rant "Ugh... I wish I could be a Hero, and not need to sit through one other of Bob's lectures about social classes of old... who the Fluff cares if there was peasants and nobility in the past?... its not that much different today... what I wouldn't give to go camping in the mountains, get a soda, and just live a life outside four walls for once... sorry for ranting as usual" she wrote, and then laid back on her bed to stare at the roof.

Her eyes trailed around as she laid there on her back with wings spread to the side, her hair was somewhat getting in the way of her face as she had laid down suddenly, but she merely let a the back of her right hand rest on her forehead before slowly sliding down on the pillow behind, her left was on her belly. The idle sound of her tail scraping against the bed filled her ears, yet she just closed her eyes for a moment to rest. Suddenly however she stirred from the sound of a message popping up on her computer screen. For a second she groaned that she forgotten to turn the sound off again, but she lazily shifted to the side and looked to the screen.

"There's a someone that can show and teach you how to be a hero"-it was from an unknown sender.

The message in the screen was burning into Ruby's eyes, at first she thought nothing off it. Was it a joke or just someone trying to really make her feel better? No matter she decided to not leave it unanswered and replied "Like how? Not like you just go and become a hero or something. Besides, four walls you know. " she replied.

It was silent for a while.

She then received another message here's a -Link- if you don't believe me"-the same person replied

Ruby looked to the message and idly stroked the link with her cursor to read the destination while pondering over if she should click it or not. She didn't want to end up somewhere weird or get viruses or something, after all she didn't need the extra trouble or end up loosing her computer. Figuring she might as well, she clicked the link and ended up with information about Tumble. She spent a good while there, reading up, checking sources and when she was done, she was not dissatisfied.

A few days more passed and Ruby eventually got fed up with everything. Eventually she couldn't stand being locked up anymore. Thus when the weather cleared she headed outside before taking to the sky. She let the winds guide her as she went to seek out Tumble, wherever she may be.
