RWBY belongs to Rooster Teeth and Monty Oum, may he rest in peace

Authors note

This is inspired by some RWBY fanart I started stumbling across. I forgot who made them but I believe each one was not made by the same person. Though I could be wrong on that but. Jaune x Harem essentially. Now to the story.


Nine years ago, Mistral

Jaune Arc, age 8 at the time, was on a trip with his family to Mistral. Well he was really, his parents were shopping and his sisters were either helping or exploring. Jaune was left to his own devices for the most part.

He was mostly wondering around the city, not much to do for him. He was used to being alone so it didn't really matter to him.

However it was when he was wandering around on that particular day that something out of the ordinary happened. One moment he was in the market the next he was pulled behind a empty vendor by someone. And that someone spoke.

"Saved your life!" She said and Jaune turned to see some girl with red hair in a ponytail.

Jaune looked around confused unsure of what she saved him from. When he didn't see anything out of the ordinary he asks her.

"From what?" He asked and at that she seemed to freeze up with wide eyes.

"Well… um… you… were lost! Yes I saved you from the streets." She said and crossed her arms.

"Do I look like I am lost." He said and she froze up again. But then running was heard in the market and the girl suddenly hide behind Jaune. Before he could ask her what's going on she shushed him. He chose to comply and stays quiet.

A few seconds later several figures in suits passed by, they looked around asking questions. Then after about a minute they took off. The girl behind him sighed in relief.

"Thanks." She said and moved out from behind him.

"Who were they?" Jaune asked.

"My bodyguards." She said.

"Bodyguards! Wait why are they running around?" He asked looking at the girl.

"I um.. ran off." She said and smiles sheepishly.

"What! Why? Wait who are you?" He asked, maybe it is someone he had heard about.

"Well my name is Pyrrha Nikos, you've probably heard of me before." She says and at the last bit she sounds saddened.

The name didn't ring any bells in Jaunes head. Not one, not a single one.

"Who?" He asks and she looked at him surprised.

"Pyrrha Nikos." She states again and the name came up blank in his head again.

"Nope, not ringing any bells." Jaune said and she looked at him dead serious.

"Do you honestly not know who I am?" She asked and leans up to his face as if trying to see if he is lying. He felt his face heating up from her closeness.

"Yes." He managed to utter out. Then something unexpected happened. She tackle hugged him.

"Thank whatever gods and goddesses are real." She said while holding him tightly.

"Wait why are you hugging me?" Jaune said though his voice is strained as she was hugging him tightly. She then suddenly rolls off him letting him sit up. She sat up as well but was actually blushing a lot.

"Well you see… I am... a prodigy. I have been training since I was even smaller than I am now." She said smiling but then her smile turned sad. "I have been winning every sparring match that my parents have arranged. As good as that sounds my friends started to distance themselves from me. I heard them say that they think that I am above them now, that I don't need them now." She said while looking down. Jaune needed a moment to take that all in, he was not expecting her to tell him so much.

"So… why are you running?" Jaune asked.

"I… just needed to get away for a day. That's all." Pyrrha said.

"Won't you just be recognized once you go into the streets?" Jaune said and she noddded.

"That's where you come in." She said and Jaune raised an eyebrow.

"How am I supposed to help?"

"Your hoodie." She said pointing at his hood.

"What about it?"

"Well can I borrow it?"

"Why?"

"Well I can use it to cover up my hair and most of my dress. Those are the recognizable features. So please can I borrow your hood." She said almost begging. Jaune sat their conflicted. He didn't know what to do, he could give her his hood or he could not. But then he looked into her pleading bright green eyes.

"Fi- fine." He said closing his eyes.

"Thank you- oh I never got your name."

"It's Jaune Arc."

"Well it's nice to meet you Jaune." She said and held out a hand while smiling. He took her hand and they shook.

After a minute of Jaune taking off his hoodie and Pyrrha straightening out her hair, so that the hoodie would fit no problem, Pyrrha was set. She had his hoodie on and the hood up over her head.

"Just make sure you give it back to me before you leave." Jaune said.

"I will." She says smiling and Jaune turned about to walk out from the empty stall.

"Well I should go no-"

"Wait!" He stopped when he feels her hand grab his. He turned to face her and saw that she closed the distance between them quickly.

"Ye- yeah?" He asked.

"I was wondering if you could… show me around. You see I am not used to exploring on my own, and I have never been to Mistral on my own either. So I don't know where I should go or what I should do." She said and looks at him pleadingly. He sighed.

"Okay I will show you around." He said and she smiles.

So they spent practically the whole day together. He showed her around and they even got ice cream and snacks every now and then. But they also had a few close calls with Pyrrhas' body guards who were still searching for her. Jaune didn't realize it but the whole time they were holding hands. They had fun at a arcade and some street vendor games like that one with the cups and the ball. But then came the time for Jaune to go when his parents called him on his scroll. At the same time Pyrrha decided that she should go as well. At that moment they were outside on a balcony as the sun was setting above the horizon.

"My mom says it's time for me to go." He said putting the scroll in his pocket. Pyrrha looked at him sadly.

"I see, well I should go as well. My parents are probably worried." She said and there was a moment of silence between the two.

"Hey Jaune." She said facing him. "Promise me that if we meet again that you will treat me as a normal person." She asked and Jaune didn't quite understand but he nodded nevertheless. But before he could move or speak she kissed him on the cheek before running off back into the market leaving a dumbstruck Jaune. It took him a moment but he got moving albeit red faced but by the time he found his family that had passed. His parents boarded a bullhead as did his five sisters (five for now) and he was the last to get on.

"Jaune." One of his sisters spoke.

"Yeah?"

"Where is your hoodie?" She said and Jaune put a hand on his chest and he didn't feel the familiar cloth.

I completely forget it.


Vale, Island of Patch

Jaune and his father were on the island of Patch. Why? Jaunes' father thought he should go see a old friend of his. His mother asked that he bring Jaune along. His father saw no issue in bringing him so he brought him along. They were walking on a dirt road on the island. Jaunes' father did not seem afraid. He explained that due to the islands' small size Grimm are not a very common problem.

They arrived at a house in the forest. Upon approaching they could see a man with light blond hair with a girl with very bright blond hair. From the looks of it they are fighting or sparring. Jaune also saw a little girl with a red cape playing with a puppy by the house while eating a cookie.

Upon approaching the blonde girl was clearly getting frustrated.

"Yang, I told you. You have to think outside the box. Look for another way arou-" She kicks him in the groin while he is talking. He gasps before collapsing forward face first in the dirt.

"Like that dad?" She asked.

"Yes… exactly like that." The man manages to get out while face first in the dirt. Jaunes' father laughed and approached causing Yang to step back out of surprise. He kneeled down by the man.

"You okay Tai?" He asked and Tai turned his head to him, clearly dazed.

"Yeah, I just need some ice and maybe some painkillers." He said and Jaunes father helped get up and helped him to the house. He stopped before going inside.

"Jaune how about you get to know his daughters while I catch up with Tai."

"Okay dad." He said and then turns around to face the girls to find Yang in front of him.

"Want to fight!?" She said and before Jaune could answer she throws a punch at him. His instincts kick in and he ducks, then he runs screaming around the yard. Yang gave chase trying to punch him while running.

Then he heard barking behind him and turns his head to see the puppy chasing him as well.

"Zwei come back!" The girl in the red hood yelled while chasing Zwei. So it stays like this for a while until they are all sitting down exhausted. After they all recover Jaune speaks.

"Can I at least have your names before you try to punch me." Jaune said but realized that he already knows one of their names. But he doesn't know the other.

"Sure! I am Yang Xiao Long, this is my sister Ruby Rose. Oh and this is Zwei our corgi, we just got him a few days ago." Yang says.

"Hi." Ruby says with a cookie in her hand, where she got it Jaune could not say.

"You are?" Yang asked.

"Oh Jaune Arc." He replied

"What brings you to Patch?"

"My dad is visiting your dad, mom had him bring me along. Say why were you fighting with your dad?"

"Dads teaching yang to fight." Ruby says with another cookie in hand.

"Why?"

"Oh well some time ago I took Ruby… out for a walk. We got attacked by some Grimm but our uncle saved us. Since then my dad has been teaching me to fight." Yang said.

"Uncle Qrow says he will teach me how to use a scythe when I get older." Ruby said with both cookies missing and crumbs on her clothes.

"A scythe? Why?"

"I want to be a Huntress when I get older, just like the heroes in our stories." Ruby said happily.

"Yep, and well dad says I have to look after her so I am learning to fight as well. Maybe become a Huntress as well. So want to fight and not run away?" Yang said and pounded her fists together. Jaune swore he saw some fire around her when she did that.

"But I don't know how to fight." Jaune said but she pulled him up forcefully by the shirt.

"Then I will teach you, Ruby doesn't want to learn from dad or me. She wants to learn from Uncle Qrow and no one else." Yang says and put her fists up. Jaune regrettably put his up.

He had bruises while Yang had none. She wasn't even tired. He he tried to block, dodge, and punch as she did but failed miserably. Ruby laughed the whole time and even Zwei seemed to mock him with an almost smug look. Jaune sat on the ground slightly dazed.

"Want to try again?" Yang says holding out a hand. He took it and she pulled him up easily.

"Nah I am good." He said and she shrugged and turned to Ruby. Jaune saw his chance and tried to grab her but she dodged to the side. Jaune gets a hold of something and pulled. When he regained his balance he saw a few strands of hair in his hand. He looks up and everything's a blur. Jaune doesn't even remember exactly what happened, one moment he is standing the next he is on the ground with yang walking away angrily with Zwei behind her. He does remember fire and red eyes but that is it.

Then Ruby is looking down at him cookie in hand.

"Yang really likes her hair." Ruby said as if that explains everything. She then held the cookie out for him with a smile and he weakly takes it and took a bite.


Some time later…

"Now Yang, apologize to Jaune." Tai said with his arms crossed while staring down Yang.

"No."

"Yang."

"No."

"Now."

"He pulled my hair while my back was turned." Yang said defiantly.

"A clever move, he found a way to attack you. Sure he failed but I would probably have done the same. But I would not have messed with your hair." Tai said. Jaune could hear their conversation but was also dealing with his own father.

"Apologize Jaune." His father said with arms crossed.

"But she beat the life out of me!" He stated and gets only a glare from his father.

"True, but you pulled her hair. Never pull a girls' hair." His father stated sternly. After some arguing and convincing on both sides both were ready to apologize.

"Sorry for pulling your hair."

"Sorry for beating you senseless."

They both apologized and Jaune can see Tai smiling.

"Now shake hands." Tai said and they did.

"Now hug." Jaunes father says and both looked at their respective parent, both nodded.

Yang sighed and pulled Jaune into a hug much to his surprise.

"Good now sit down and talk while I get tea." Tai said smiling then walked to the kitchen.

"I will go get some food." Jaunes father said and walks to the kitchen as well. That left Jaune, Yang, and Ruby, who is sitting by Yang with a cookie, alone.

It was a bit of awkward silence at first.

"So…. where is your mom?" Jaune asked both of them. Ruby stops eating her cookie and Yang spoke after a moment.

"Well…. we have different moms." She said and Jaune saw how that was likely. Yang and Ruby don't have much similarities at all so it was kinda obvious. After a moment she went on.

"We were raised by Rubys mom, her name was Summer. She was the baker of cookies and slayer of monsters." She said the last bit with a smile.

"But then she went on a mission and never came back." Yang said sadly and Ruby pulled her hood up. Yang puts an arm around her sister with a sad look on her face.

"Then I found out that she wasn't my mother. My mother is uncle Qrows sister. My dad won't tell me anything about her and Uncle Qrow is not around much so I can't ask him." Yang said holding Ruby close.

"Sorry I asked." Jaune said sadly. But Yang looked at him with a smile.

"It's alright, people always say that talking helps people with things like this. This does feel like it is helping." Yang said with a smile. Things went smoothly after that. They talked, laughed, and played played some board games. But then came the time for Jaune and his father to go.

"See yah Jauney boy!" Yang yelled waving from her house.

"Bye Jaune!" Ruby yelled as well with a cookie in hand.

"Bye!" Jaune yelled back and soon the house is out of site. They make their way back to the boat that took them to Patch.


Back and Tais' house….

"You like him." Ruby said once their dad went in the house. Yangs face gets red immediately and and she faces her sister.

"No, what makes you say that!" She asked quickly.

"You told him about mom and everything, you never like to even mention everything that happened." Ruby said matter of factly.

"No, you are crazy. Besides you probably like him as well." Yang said her assumption is right as Ruby seems to get bashful and pulls her hood up.

"Why do you say that?" She said timidly.

"You gave him a cookie, I saw you when I glanced back. You never give them to anyone else." Yang said and their conversation turns into a argument that continues for some time.


A few days later…

Jaune and his father took a boat to Vale then had to walk around Vale to get to a bullhead that would take them to a dock to get to Mistral. But they were delayed due to a protest by Faunus. This group is the White Fang, so far their protests have been relatively peaceful with little to no violence.

But Jaunes father, while not having any discrimination against Faunus, decided to keep Jaune a distance from the protest. Just in case.

"Jaune stay here. I am going to to see what they are protesting." His father said and goes to the group but keeps a distance while talking to a member of the protesters.

But then Jaune heard voices in the alley behind him and hid against the wall.

"Adam I don't think this is a good idea." A voice said, a girl from what he can tell.

"Trust me Blake. The humans will get what they deserve." This Adam said. Jaune could only guess they are Faunus.

"Adam what if they catch you? What will you do then?" This Blake asks.

"I will deal with them if that happens. Now wait here. I will be back." This Adam says and Jaune can hear what sounds like climbing and grunting. After about a minute it disappears. Jaune risked a peek around the corner and saw a girl faunus with cat ears. But when he is looking over he steps on some broken glass. Her cat ears twitched and she quickly looked in Jaunes direction. Jaune went around the corner quickly.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" She yelled but not too loudly. Jaune considered his options and steps out into the alley and surprised the girl that he can only assume is Blake.

"How long have you been there? What did you hear?!" She said almost threateningly.

"N- nothing really. Just the last bits of your conversation but that is all." Jaune said quickly.

"Are you going to tell? If you do we will get in a lot of trouble." Blake said and looked at Jaune in a challenging way.

"N- no. Why would I tell? I got nothing against the faunus if that's what you're implying." Jaune says though that last bit came out on its own. She stared him down.

"How do I know you are telling the truth?" She said.

"I promise on my life." Jaune said out of desperation. She stared at him with those golden almost glowing eyes. She looks at him another moment then speaks.

"What happened to your face." She said and Jaune realized that she is talking about the bruises.

"A friend was teaching me to fight then… well I honestly don't remember. I was standing one moment then I was on the ground." He said smiling sheepishly.

"I see." She says then there is a moment of silence.

"My name is Jaune Arc." He said in an attempt to lighten the mood.

"Blake." She says not giving a last name.

"So… what are you doing here?" He asked and after a moment she speaks.

"I guess you should know since you likely heard our conversation. My friend is going to sneak into the building they are protesting. He is going to drop firecrackers into the building once he sneaks in." Blake said and looked up a fire escape, Jaune could only assume that's what Adam climbed up.

"That sounds like fun." Jaune said and she goes back to looking at him in a curious manner.

"I suppose. But Adam takes this all seriously. He says that one day he will change everything with me beside him." She says with a smile. "He says we will make a world where faunus can be equal." She said then stopped herself from talking further as if she had said too much.

"Don't worry I won't say anything." He said truthfully and she continued to look at him. "I got nothing against the Faunus, I understand that not all humans are like my family. But there are good humans out there." Jaune said but before she could continue he hears his father calling out for him.

"Sorry I have to go." He said and quickly went back to his father. He would have to think of a excuse quickly.


A few days later….

Their bullhead had been delayed a few days due to severe weather. So they were stuck at the port for a few days. It had been boring. The only bit of excitement Jaune got was when the news mentioned something about a supposed shooting. It turned out to be firecrackers.

It was supposed to be the day that a bullhead would take them to the docks that have boats that go to Mistral. But that got delayed for a few hours as a ship from Atlas had arrived. Apparently the family of the Schnee Dust Company was arriving and paid to arrive very early.

"Watch yourself Jaune. These Atlas people aren't exactly fond of the other kingdoms." His father said and Jaune nodded, they sit in the waiting area.

Then a from the sky a elegant and advanced looking ship came down and landed. When it landed the back opened up. Out first came some of those Atlas robots (the AK130s, the ones in the Black Trailer) then came a man with white hair and a white moustache and a young girl with white hair and pale colored skin.

"That is the current owner of the Schnee Dust Company, that would be his daughter Weiss Schnee the heir to the company." His father said while watching them exit the ship.

Jaune could only watch as robots followed after them out. He could only watch as they entered the port at a entrance right next to Jaune and his father. Then someone runs at them without slowing. This person has a black hood on with the hood up and a mask covering the eyes. Knife drawn and running towards the Schnees' right past Jaune and his father.

Jaune knew that he is not brave or a fighter. He knew that much. But at that moment he wasn't exactly thinking. He just jumped. Right onto the person and tackled him. It was at that moment that the robots became aware of the threat for he heard the robots speak.

"Halt, identify yourself." The machines said with their hands now miniguns, four of them surround Jaune and the attacker. Before Jaune could reply or his father could do anything the attacker tried to shove Jaune off him. Jaune did the only thing he could think of and tried to hold him down.

In return the figure growled and Jaune felt a sudden pain in his right arm at his forearm, but then it got worse when the pain went down his entire forearm. Jaune fell back and clutched his arm. He felt something slick. He brought his hand up and saw blood.

He looked up and saw the figure running down the way he or she came. The four robots chased the figure while alarms went off. What happened next is a blur but apparently his father rushed him to a hospital. The wound was deep and ran along his forearm, but the doctors managed to help him, the worst he would get was a scar. But they missed their flight and it seemed like they would have to wait a few more days.

But as luck would have it they had a mysterious donor pay for their immediate return trip. Jaune father said he had a idea who paid for it. It was obvious because the aircraft that picked them up was Atlas origin and was very high class. Not to mention the giant snowflake symbol on the outside of the ship.

"Maybe the Schnees' aren't so bad after all." His father said smiling while looking at a menu.


His mother and sisters were worried sick and would not let him out of there site for weeks. All he could really think is that the month before had been interesting to say the least.

His arm healed and like the doctors said he got a scar that ran from his wrist to his elbow. Well that would be something for him to get to get used to. Then came the news, his mother is pregnant, twins it would seem. He had a feeling his life would get more interesting. He was outside now with a new hoodie, his mother made sure to get him a new one. It had a bunny on it, Pumpkin Pete. He looked at his hoodie for a moment wondering what Pyrrha did with his old one. After a moment ue got up and headed to the house.

Then he heard cawing above his head and looked up to see a crow. It cocked its head at him then flew down and landed on a small tree in front of Jaune. He looked at it and it seemed to look back silently. Then it violently cawed at him before flying away. He watched it go.

"That was weird." He said watching for a few more seconds.

Then he heard snapping above his head and looked up to see a large branch falling towards him. Then darkness.


"Well that's a shame." Qrow said looking at the now laying down form of this Jaune Arc. He puts his blade on his back and takes a drink from his canteen. He put it away then walked away whistling.


Authors note

Here is my new fic. Revolving mainly around Jaune Arc and if he somehow met team RWBY and Pyrrha in his childhood. Then by an "unfortunate" event he got amnesia.

Feel free to review, give me a opinion and so on. Will now work on my other fic now.

Until next time!
