Most people dream about being able to move at superhuman speeds. But you, you have a semblance that allows you to live out everyone's dream of being fast.
I frantically comb my hair trying to fix it up. I smile seeing it neatly combed. But groan as it explodes into a shaggy mess.
Y/N: "Dangit."
I shrug giving up trying to control my hair. With nothing else left to do I knock on Ruby's door. It opens revealing Ruby is casual clothing.

Y/N: "Woah. You look good."
She looks to the side with some red in her cheeks.
Ruby: "You ready?"
Y/N: "Yeah."
I lead us into Vale. When we reach Sunset Avenue I see Ruby looking up.
Ruby: "Big house."
Y/N: "And all paid for by the city."
She look at me.
Ruby: "How?"
Y/N: "Ex hero, remember?"
She scratches the back of her head.
Ruby: "Right. Forgot."
I ring the doorbell. Not even a second later a puff of black smoke erupts.
Alice: "Big brother!!!!"
She wraps her arms around lifting me into a hug.
Y/N: "Hello Alice."
Alice: "Why didn't you tell me you were coming over?"
Y/N: "I wanted to surprise you guys."
She looks at me smiling.
Alice: "Well I'm certainly surprised."
She sets me down.
Alice: "Come on. Everyone's gonna be so excited to see you."
We walk inside and to the very top floor.
Alice: "Everyone, look who's here!!!"
My siblings all look at me.
Y/N: "Hey guys."
I brace as my siblings surround me. My oldest brother gets me in a headlock before giving me a noogie.
Sam: "Long time no see baby brother. You been staying out of trouble?"
I vibrate through his grip straightening out my clothes.
Y/N: "Yes. Have you?"
He looks to the side crossing his arms.
Alice: "He got grounded again."
Y/N: "What for this time?"
Cody: "He destroyed a cop car again."
Y/N: "That's twice."
Sam: "It wasn't entirely my fault. My opponent was really tough. So I figured I needed bigger fists."
Cody: "Always the trouble maker."
Y/N: "You're one to talk Cody. If I remember correctly, you're the one who always raided the pantry."
Cody: "Not my fault I get the munchies. Mom and dad should really invest in better locks."
Alice: "What's the point when you can just eat through them?"
Mom: "Is that who I think it is?"
I smile seeing mom walking out of the kitchen. She hugs me deeply.
Mom: "It's good to see you my sweet boy."
Y/N: "You too."
I break the hug.
Y/N: "Where's father?"
Mom: "Out on a mission. But he's due back any minute now."
Her eyes fall on Ruby making her smile.
Mom: "Who's your friend?"
Ruby: "Hello. My name's Ruby, Ruby Rose."
She's hugged.
Mom: "Pleasure to meet you."
Alice: *leans whispering* "Is it just me or do you think Y/N's friend looks a little like mom?"
Cody: *whispering* "I noticed that too."
The door opens revealing dad. He looks at me.
Dad: "Y/N. What a surprise."
He lowers his hood making Ruby look at him
Ruby: "Wow. You really take up after your father Y/N."
Sam: "Yep. People often called them twins."
Dad: "So what brings you out this way?"
Y/N: "I wanted you guys to meet my friend Ruby."
He walks to her shaking her hand.
Dad: "Nice to meet you."
Ruby: "Likewise."
Mom: "Well lunch's ready. Shall we eat?"
Alice: "Yeah. Let's eat."
After a hearty meal me and Ruby start to take our leave.
Ruby: "It was nice meeting you guys."
Mom: "Same. Hope we can meet again."
Dad puts his hand on my shoulder looking me dead in the eye.
Dad: "You've got yourself a pretty one. I can't wait till you two get together."
Y/N: "Father!!!"
I turn my back to him and head outside walking away.
Ruby: "Quite a family."
YN: "They're a handful. That's for sure. But I wouldn't trade them for anything."
We reach her dorm.
Ruby: "I had fun."
She kisses my cheek.
Ruby: "Till next time Y/N."
She heads into her dorm. Meanwhile I calmly walk into Beacon's courtyard. When I'm at the center I scream in joy running all over the place. I stop and just speak without thinking.
