I do not own RWBY. That privilege belongs to Monty Oum (who might add is one of my favorite people in the world).

Now before you read this story note that there are aspects in the story that are similar to other Jaune Arc centered stories. Allow me to list some of the similarities.

Jaune is a badass in the story (no surprise I'm guessing since this has been used quite a bit.

Jaune will have the ability to create wings for him to fly. (What… it's cool.)

HAREM! (Because who doesn't love a good harem?)

Other ideas that I will use for this story. The moment I use a specific idea from someone else's story I will give credit to the author.

HAREM! (Didn't I already I say that?)

Now if any of this is a bother to you then there is no need to read this story. I'll understand and respect your decision. Now without further ado I give you the RWBY story known as


XIII

A simple young boy of the age of 7 with a dream to become a hero, to become someone who could protect the innocent, to become someone his family would be proud of. That dream driven boy was Jaune Arc.

Jaune was currently listening to his father tell him stories about Beacon Academy and what he and Jaune's mother were like when they were hunters in training. He told him about how boring classes were, the missions he went on, and of course his team that were considered family. They were known as team OGRQ(Ogre). Jaune despite not loving the name of the team loved his father's stories. The man was tall and well built. He had short blond hair and ocean blue eyes, both of which Jaune inherited.

His mother also told him stories about her life in Beacon. Her team along with his father's were the two best in Beacon. Her team was known as ETRL (Eternal). She was the leader of her team unlike Jaune's father. But it was without question that his father was the superior hunter. But that didn't stop his mother from scaring the man. Even though she was quite threatening her beauty was unmatched rivaling that of Goodwitch. Elizabeth had long raven black hair and violet eyes. Jaune had many of her features while he inherited his father's eyes and hair.

Both his mother and father would always spend time with him, showing nothing but love and affection. Despite going on missions they would somehow make time for their son. He was their precious little angel after all.

Jaune was currently in bed with his mother tucking him in. Jaune kept asking himself 'will I ever be a hero like mom and dad? If I could be a hero that would be so cool!'

Jaune soon asks the question that had been on his mind "Will I ever be a hero like you and Dad?" His mother responds with a warm light laugh. "If that's what you really want to do when you grow up. I'm sure you'll be a hunter unlike anyone else has ever seen." Jaune beams at that. His mother knowing that Jaune was nowhere near tired told him a bed time story. Jaune quickly fell asleep after she told the story. She kisses his forehead "Good night my little angel." She walks out of his room, her husband Rohan outside waiting for her.

"Should we really encourage him to be a hunter, Elizabeth? I'd prefer him to be safe from danger." Elizabeth sighs but then has an amusing smile. "Usually the mother would have that line. Rohan if our son wants to be a hunter then that is his decision. Neither yours nor mine, he alone can make that decision. And no matter what he chooses we should and will give him our support no matter what." Rohan smiles in agreement. "I suppose you're right." Elizabeth giggles and gives Rohan a quick kiss on the cheek "when am I ever wrong?" Rohan chuckles "Good point." He said in amusement. The Arc family was truly a happy family.


But the happy times could never last. On Jaune's 8th birthday his childhood was ruined. He along with his loving parents were attacked by the creatures of Grimm. His parents protected him from harm. They did so with their lives. The trauma of those events caused Jaune's memory of the event to become distorted and shattered. All he knew was that his parents protected him from mindless beasts. However, he himself does not know how he survived.

In the headmaster office of Beacon Professor Ozpin was having his midnight coffee. He was currently looking through documents. However, Glynda Goodwitch barges in with a look of shock and pain. Ozpin simply looks up from the documents with a blank expression "What is it Glynda? I'm looking throu-" he was interrupted by Glynda's outburst.

"Rohan and Elizabeth are dead!" At those words Ozpin for the first time in his life drops his coffee. Another first for him was the look of complete shock which quickly turns to panic. He stands up and slams his hands on the desk "What!? That can't be!?" He looks at the picture of him, Glynda, Rohan and a man with shoulder length black hair and silver eyes. They were team OGRQ back in their academy days and not only that, but the closest of friends. Ozpin quickly asks about a certain boy. "Glynda what of Jaune!? Is he okay!?"

"He's in the hospital at this very moment. We should hurry to him." Ozpin nods in agreement and they leave Beacon to board a dust plane. After about a 30 minute plane ride they arrive at the city. They make sure to get to the hospital with deliberate speed.

They arrive at the hospital and quickly ask for Jaune Arc. The nurse directs them to Jaune's room. When they enter they were met with no one. Jaune wasn't there. Ozpin quickly looks towards the nurse "where is he?" The nurse didn't reply because she her self did not know.


Afterwards Ozpin and Goodwitch were both outside the hospital, both distraught over the disappearance of the son of their former teammate and friend. "Where could he have gone?"Ozpin questioned , Glynda was also questioning the disappearance of the boy.

"Perhaps I can shine some light on the situation." Ozpin and Glynda sharply turn to see the person who spoke. It was a man with a black coat with his hood up to cover his face. He continues "Would you like to see him?" Ozpin narrows his eyes at the hooded figure.

Glynda soon questions the man "And how would you know where Jaune is?" Glynda prepares her dust wand for battle.

The hooded man gestures towards a limo. "I know because I took him, if you want to see the boy then come with me." The professors eye the man suspiciously. However, if they want to see Jaune then they had to comply… for now.


They enter the limo and after some time arrive at a facility. It looked abandoned but was guarded by a few guards. The moment they enter the facility the Schnee company logo graces them. The symbol of the family on multiple pieces of equipment. The hooded man who was seated in front of Ozpin and Glynda spoke "Welcome to our facility. As you can see the Schnee company is our investor." The two hunters didn't speak.

The car stops and they exit walking through the facility full of dust powered machinery. After a while they arrive in front of a double door with the Schnee company logo on it. The hooded man types in a pass code and the door opens to reveal a sleeping Jaune Arc on a white bed. Ozpin runs to Jaune to make sure he was okay. Glynda follows soon after. The room they entered was pure white. Ozpin sighs in relief "Thank Monty, he's okay." His relief soon vanishes when the hooded man spoke "He will be fine. This child is quite remarkable, to be able to use his aura at such a young, destroying the Grimm that attacked and killed his parents."

Ozpin and Glynda were in shock by this revelation. Glynda soon spoke "How can that be? A child can't utilize their aura for combat at such a young age. Even if a child were able to they would die from its usage."

"But Jaune is no normal child. He is… special." The hooded man replied. Ozpin narrows his eyes at the man. "Are you really implying that Jaune was able to use his aura?"

"That's exactly what I am implying. However neither I nor my men saw this spectacle. We only felt the aura that he generated. And trust me, it was defiantly the child's and not of his parents. Because the aura this child displayed was even greater than that of his mother and father." Glynda's eyes widen in astonishment and disbelief while Ozpin who was still quite surprised didn't show it. "Perhaps we should take this outside." Ozpin said. The hooded man agrees and the three individuals leave Jaune alone in his room.


Ozpin and Glynda enter another room, this time it seems to be the one where the director of this facility is. When they enter they see a man in his mid thirties who was wearing a black suit. He has snow white hair with light blue eyes that look over at the hunters. "Hello Professor Ozpin, Professor Goodwitch. I'm sorry for the inconvenience we've caused you and the boy. But I'm afraid it was for the best."

Ozpin looks at him suspiciously "And what would Kalte Schnee, owner and head of the Schnee Company want with a child?"

The now identified Kalte Schnee looks down on his desk for a moment before responding "To enter him into the Jaeger Program."

"And pray tell, what is the Jaeger Program?" Glynda said with a hint of anger in her voice.

Before Kalte could answer the hooded man answers for him. "The Jaeger program is a program with the purpose of training gifted children to become true hunters."

Ozpin and Glynda were surprised at this. Ozpin questions this 'Jaeger Program' "Why would you want to train children at such a young age? The age required to start an education as a hunter is 12. Jaune is four years too young to start training."

The man replies to Ozpin "True, but with the Jaeger program they can be trained to be emotionless killers. To be turned into cold hearted machines in a sense. Training children at such a young age would guarantee this. They would be superior to any other hunter." Ozpin eyed the man suspiciously.

"Why would you want to train children to become monsters?" Glynda asked disgusted by the idea.

"Because training a child would lead to greater results. We already have twelve children ready. Jaune will be our 13th and final member. He will be XIII in the program." Ozpin and Glynda were both mortified by the idea. They wouldn't let Jaune be a part of this program.

Kalte as if somehow reading their minds speaks "This is for the best. We need Jaune in the program. Don't worry he'll be fine. we're not going to turn him into a monster. Gilbert was exaggerating, what we mean to do is battle harden them."

"BUT THEY'RE CHILDREN!" Glynda shouts obviously against the idea. Before she can continue "That's enough Glynda" she turns to see Ozpin lift his hand to motion her to stop. Ozpin continues speaking "It's obvious that we won't be able to convince them against this. So with that said." He narrows his eyes at the white haired entrepreneur. "I believe you know what will happen if anything were to happen to that boy, I'll make sure your company isn't the only thing ruined."

Kalte shows no care and instead smiles "I promise you. But I was actually going to let you watch over him. He'll live with you but he'll still participate in the Jaeger Program. How does that sound?" Ozpin was indeed surprised at this offer. He expected them to take Jaune away from them. "I accept" was all Ozpin said. Kalte stands up to shake Ozpin's hand but Ozpin makes no move to return the gesture. None the less Kalte still smiles "Then we're in agreement. You can take Jaune with you now if you'd like."

Ozpin nods his head "I would very much like that. Glynda it's time we leave with Jaune." Kalte then speaks "I'll unlock the door to Jaune's room from here." They leave the room to go back to Jaune.

"Are you sure this is a good idea Professor?" Glynda asks voicing her concern.

Ozpin didn't like the idea but it was their only option if they wanted to keep an eye on Jaune. They arrive in front of Jaune's room. "It's all we can do." They enter the room to take the sleeping child with them.


So this is prologue part one, part two will be released shortly. Now I won't be telling a story about Jaune's time in the Jeager program. I'll do a time skip to where Jaune is boarding the dust plane or something along those lines. I might write a story about Jaune's time in the Jeager program but not at this moment.

Kalte: Means cold in German. So Kalte Schnee means Cold Snow.

Jeager: Means hunter in German. So the Jeager program is the hunter program.

So tell me if you liked the start up and the concept. Now if you think you won't be able to enjoy the story then I understand. However, I would appreciate it if you would all give the story a chance before casting it aside. You might actually enjoy the story.

Remember to review if you have any suggestions or concerns you may have for the story. If you like the story then I'll truly be happy. As long as even a single enjoys my story then I'm doing something right.

Other things you should know:

I know I could have had Elizabeth be on the same team as Rohan to make OGRE but I had something else in mind so just trust me on this.

Also if you see David instead of Rohan that's because I had his name be David but changed it to Rohan.

That is all.
