Okay, I decided to rewrite the story due to the fact that it does seem to be pretty closely written to how my story Been 10 New Century Zero is written. So I'm going to rewrite the story and try to make each chapter more original while still following the New Century Zero storyline. Hope you guys don't mind.

*I still don't own RWBY or Zoids! But I SORELY wish I did!*

*Pairing: Jaune x Yang x Leena x ? x ? (last two girls are undecided as of yet. But will be decided before the seventh chapter.)

"Liger Zero!" = normal speech

"Liger Zero!" = Dark Judge Speaking

'Liger Zero!' = thoughts

"Liger Zero!" = someone yelling

"Liger Zero!" = White Judge Speaking

"Liger Zero!" = Ending Narration

Departure From Beacon!

Hatred… rage… sorrow… despair… these are the ingredients chosen to create the very tense atmosphere that has descended over Beacon.

It's been two months since the failed Vytal Tournament, and things were not going well for either Jaune Arc or Yang Xiao Long. Neither have been quite the same since Yang was accused of attacking Mercury after their round in the tournament and taken to Atlas Maximum Security Prison.

When it initially happened, no one from teams RWBY and JNPR besides Jaune thought she was innocent, and that caused her some massive heartbreak. And in the process, it drove a wedge between Jaune and his former friends. Not to mention that Pyrrha actually had the gall to pay Mercury to fight on their team in place of Jaune in the next tournament. Needless to say, a LOT of butts got kicked that day.

And as it stood, Jaune didn't trust any of Beacon's professors anymore, since even THEY failed to see that Yang was innocent! Oh sure, they tried to confront him and get him to accept what happened. All it resulted in was being beaten black and green, several threats of castration with a rusty spoon, one threat of removing Glynda's eyeballs and shoving them down her throat and one of the male teachers having their balls literally crushed by Jaune's fist!

...Yeah. Oobleck REALLY needs to learn when to just shut up!

Unfortunately for Jaune, the sterility of the teacher wasn't permanent due to an Aura technique he used to rebuild his balls. Although, the teacher is still scared shitless of Jaune's unyielding rage, and tends to reflexively cover his groin when in Jaune's presence.

Things had certainly gone from bad to worse, though.

Just when they thought the situation couldn't possible get any worse (damn you Weiss for tempting fate!), Jaune and the others had gotten a very disturbing report from General Ironwood.

Yang had been raped while in prison.

One of the more deranged criminals in the prison, a serial rapist who was a jaguar Faunus, pounced on Yang when the guards had gone on a lunch break. Long story short, he did the unthinkable to Yang and is now awaiting the chopping block upon being sentenced to the death penalty.

Fortunately for Yang, Jaune had scrounged up every cent he could and used the money to pay her bail before taking her back to Beacon. But the incident had scarred her for life. She's afraid of every male at Beacon, and even most of the females, and doesn't leave Jaune's side for any longer than a few minutes at a time. Mainly to shower or use the bathroom.

The only upside was that their mothers, Sarah Arc and Raven Branwen, had heard about what happened and immediately rushed to their children's sides. Sarah volunteered to be a therapist for Yang and council her so she could recover easier, while Raven was just going to be there for her daughter. The black haired woman had thanked Jaune profusely for looking out for her child, promising that should either of them need her help, she'd be there for them.

She basically threw away her 'Rule of One', realizing that it did more harm than good in this situation. They were all incredibly lucky that Yang hadn't gotten pregnant from that whole ordeal!

And that leads us to the current situation.

"Jaune, is this really necessary?" asked Pyrrha.

She and the rest of team JNPR and the rest of team RWBY and most of the Beacon professors were gathered in the courtyard of the academy to meet with an absolutely livid Jaune Arc. Yang is currently with her mother, who is trying to comfort her from the ordeal she suffered and to try and make up for lost time. And while she did this, Jaune was occupied with giving everyone a piece of his mind.

"Yes it is, you worthless, thankless ingrates!" growled Jaune. "I can't believe that you-"

"Alright everyone, let's calm it down!" said Sarah Arc, Jaune's mother and Yang's self appointed therapist. "Take a deep breath,"

She inhaled deeply through her nose in order to try and quell her OWN anger, and partially succeeded. But only because her son was in the vicinity, and she doesn't want to cause him any more stress.

"Good. Now Jaune, let's address the issue here." she requested.

Jaune's eyes narrowed more as he recalled earlier events with his team.

"The issue? The ISSUE is that I spent every spare moment of my time here training to be a better fighter for THEM!" Jaune explained, gesturing to his 'team'. "And what do they do!? They go out and literally PAY for it!"

"Well, I don't see how that's-" Nora tried to say.

But she was cut off by Sarah and the scary dark Aura she was generating.

"Now, miss Valkyrie, this is my son's turn. Now, how did that make you feel, Jaune?" Sarah asked her son.

"It made me feel hurt. It made me feel inadequate. Like I'm not good enough." Jaune replied in a hurt voice.

"Oh Jaune, don't be like that! It was just a one-time thing!" Pyrrha said, trying to calm her partner down.

Yeah, like that'll happen anytime soon!

"Was it, Pyrrha? Because last I checked, there's a whole tournament coming up to make up for the previous one, and something tells me that you're excited to see them again!" Jaune said accusingly.

"Well sure, but…"

"SEE?! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" shouted Jaune.

"Jaune, please! We just fought in the previous tournament like two months ago!" Ren said, beginning to lose his patience.

"Yeah, and I'm sure you would've fought alongside MERCURY if HE were on your team!" Jaune accused.

"That's not fair, we-" Nora tried to say again.

But once again, she was cut off by Sarah the therapist.

"Okay, let's not get too off topic. Now children, tell us: why did you support Ironwood's decision to send Yang to prison and pay Mercury to be on your team?" she asked.

Pyrrha and the rest of the group looked down in guilt at that. Had they known that the prison was holding a serial rapist in its confines, they would never have agreed to that! They would have at LEAST placed her under house arrest, but they certainly didn't want THAT to happen to her! Even Ozpin wouldn't wish such a horrible fate on his worst enemy!

In a hidden lair of sorts, Salem sneezed as she was revising her plans.

In response to the second question though, Ren sighed as he tried to find the right words to say here. One wrong word could spell disaster for everyone here, and he knows it. Of course, in situations such as this, there is no correct way to tell someone that they've basically been replaced.

"It is… I don't know. Mercury just… does things, you know? Things you can't! We can't go through life knowing only the same thing day in day out." Ren said.

"Oh, THERE IT IS! After half a year of working together I just don't excite you guys anymore, is that it!?" Jaune snarled.

"You know, I'm pretty sure your older sisters were never like this when you came along." Ren quipped.

"Oh…! So that's what this is now, huh?" Jaune asked, turning away from his team.

"Now, mister Arc, nobody is saying that you aren't team JNPR's leader anymore!" said Ozpin.

"NO! I WANT TO HEAR IT FROM THEM!" demanded Jaune.

But the guilty looks on the faces of his supposed team said it all.

"I mean…" trailed off Pyrrha.

Jaune just closed his eyes, crossed his arms and started walking away.

"I rest my case. I can't trust any of you!"

And with that, Jaune walked off to get away from those he formerly thought that he could trust. The professors didn't care what happened to Yang in that PRISON before she was bailed out by him, and his team obviously thought that he was expendable! So why should he continue to be around them?!

If only he understood that Yang had gone through a similar conversation with her mother at the same time that he had spoken with his former peers.

*With Yang. Same Time…*

Raven Branwen considers herself to be a strong and independent woman. True, she doesn't consider herself the world's greatest mom, but after what happened to her baby girl in that Atlesian Maximum Security Prison she was trying very, very, VERY hard to be a part of her daughter's life.

As proven by how she was holding Yang in a warm embrace, stroking her hair while Yang continued to let out her sorrows by crying into the older woman's shoulder.

"It's going to be okay. I'm here for you now, my little dragon." Raven said soothingly to her daughter. "It's going to be alright. The bad Faunus can't hurt you anymore!"

Yang couldn't even bother with responding as the horrible memories wouldn't stop replaying in her mind. She was used like some kind of plaything by a madman and those guards just let it happen! It's a miracle that she doesn't hate everything male now!

"Mom… I can't…" mumbled Yang.

"You can't what, sweetheart?" Raven asked.

She held Yang out at arm's length and looked her over.

She looked terrible! Her hair was no longer the stunning blonde color that she once took pride in, her eyes were read and puffy from crying so much, her cheeks were swollen and red from crying as well and she also had these terrible dark bags under her eyes! Not to mention that she has lost a lot of weight as Raven had felt her bones when she hugged her. That's not good. She needed to eat more.

Yang sniffled and spoke in a broken voice as she poured her heart out to her mother.

"I can't stay here anymore! No one here cares about me! My own sister betrayed me, and I can't even stay sane with so many males in the same place anymore! I just can't stay! I have to leave!" wailed Yang.

Raven just shushed her daughter and hugged her tight as Yang broke down again. She knew that Yang wouldn't last much longer in an environment like this, and the only real friend she has left is that boy, Jaune Arc. Looking up at the sky, Raven frowned and subtly nodded.

She knows what has to be done.

*Later That Night…*

"Mom, miss Branwen, where are you guys taking us?" Jaune asked.

He and Yang had been asked by their moms to meet them at the edge of Beacon's cliffs. Once there, the two women lead their children to the entrance of the Emerald Forest. And that place is extra dangerous due to how active the Grimm are at night and how much deadlier they are when strengthened by the shadows.

"Don't worry, Jauney, we're already here." Sarah said.

"We've been doing some talking and we've come to the conclusion that Beacon is no longer a safe place for either of you. Between uncaring and incompetent professors, and your own friends and certain members of your family turning on you, we've decided to send you off the continent to a place where there are no Grimm." Raven explained.

Both children looked surprised and made a move to protest, but their mothers just held up a hand and hugged their children tightly.

"We understand that you might not initially feel as though this is the best choice, but we just want what's best for you right now." Sarah continued. "And right now, what's best for you both is not Beacon. You don't have to stay away from Remnant forever, just long enough to recover from this whole ordeal. We've already found some people who are willing to take you in while you search for your purpose in this world."

Raven held out a wallet sized picture to the two children which Yang took and held up so she and Jaune could look at it. It was of a man with messy brown hair and brown eyes who looked like he was in his late thirties, mid forties.

"That is our old friend, Doctor Steve Toros. He's the manager of a Zoid Battle Team known as the Blitz Team. The team itself is comprised of his son and daughter, Leon and Leena Toros, a mercenary named Brad Hunter and a young man named Jamie. He's agreed to allow you both to stay with the Blitz Team until you've found a way to make ends meet, but I know that you're both destined for great things." Raven said.

With that said, Raven drew her sword and slashed open a portal to what looks like a base of some kind. Jaune took Yang's hand to try and calm her down while both teenagers were kissed on the forehead by their respective mothers.

The two women then gently pushed their children through the portal as it closed behind them. They were both sad to see their children go, but they knew this wouldn't be the last time they saw them.

One day… They'll meet again.

*To Be Continued…*
