(Welp This is my first story and well I hope it's good I don't really know if it is but you don't know till ya try or something I don't remember.. I kinda have another million ideas in my head as interesting as this one so I hope I will get better at this crap or something. So see ya later alligator or so?)

"Jaune are you sure you want to leave" Ruby asked in a rather worried manner "I mean I know you can take care of yourself and stuff" "But still! I mean what's wrong with staying with us?" Ruby said looking rather downtrodden along with Nora, Ren looked perplexed but ever so slightly understanding.

Jaune stood there snow wafting down his form looking rather determined to leave, "Ruby it's not you it's me" he said before looking rather embarrassed at what he had just said Nora quietly snorted at the now ruined serious atmosphere and Ruby cheeks ever so slightly red but could easily be mistaken for the cold and Ren standing there with a grin, "I Me- mean that W- well um.." Jaune stuttered

"I just want some time to myself to think things through, You know?" Jaune said managed to talk with out mucking up a word again.

Ruby stood there in disappointment before raising her head in realization, "Jaune if this is about Pyrrha.." she said, Ren shot an alarming look at Ruby as if trying to say something.

"It's not your fault you know, Don't blame yourself for-" Ruby had said before getting cut off by a rather angry Jaune, "It was my fault I could of taken the fall for her if i had understood what she was saying about destiny I could have prevented this all!" Jaune yelled out before looking rather ashamed of himself for yelling out at Ruby who started looking at the ground knowing she had breached an uncomfortable subject.

But then Ruby looked up confusion welling up in her eyes "What did Pyrrha say about destiny?.."

Jaune quickly turned around grabbing his backpack and Weapons from the ground "I better leave" he said as he started walking away from the group. "Wa -wait!" Ruby yelled out ready to run after Jaune before Ren had gripped his hand on her shoulder "Stop, Ruby if he wishes to leave then it is for the best, keeping him here against his will not help I know you mean the best for him but I believe he needs to sort out his problems"

Ren said in a rather wise manner.. but well did you expect any less from him?.

"But" Ruby said as she thought of things to say then she popped up "Maybe we can help hi- "Alone" Ren interjected Ruby sagged down yet again Looking sad "I just don't want to lose another friend.." she said as tears welled up in her eyes,

"Oh ye have little Faith"

Nora who had been silent till now said as she hopped up to Ruby and started rubbing circles on her back "he'll be fine" saying fine with a slightly over exaggerated tone.

"Nora don't jinx it" Ren said, "But he will be alright, Right.." Nora said unheeding Ren's words "Nora stop" Ren said as he started rubbing the bridge of his nose, Nora looked at Ren with a weird glint in her eyes "I mean what can go wrong, except for Grimm attacks and losing his money and getting a dept by drinking his problems away!" Nora said somehow cheerfully "NORA!" Ren and Ruby both shouted,

"What?" Nora said while looking at them with a fake innocent look, Giggling was heard from Ruby which preceded to grow into full grown laughter

Ren joined along chuckling and Nora made what she thought were sloth sounds. The noise eventually died out and all but one fell asleep easily in their camping bags around the fire.

Ruby unzipped her Camping bag and walked out into an open clearing with a clear view of the remnants of the moon, She saw shooting stars come by and remembered that her sister had once said if you wish upon a shooting star it is most likely to come true,

She wished her mother back the next time she saw shooting stars, It hadn't worked unfortunately but Yang had said not too make impossible requests for the poor stars so she just wished this once that Jaune would be alright..


Jaune swung his sword against the cold harsh wind before noticing Jaune was already tired from just walking and setting up camp which was a little further away than what he thought to be further away from his friends accidentally.

'They are stronger than I am they trained most of their life to enter Beacon Academy..'

While Jaune was just an inconvenience to them he had dragged them down, he was undoubtedly weak he didn't deserve to be on their team none the less their team leader, If he were stronger he could have managed to save Pyrrha.

All this time Jaune had thought he was getting closer, yet they were just moving farther away, maybe he was up to the level they were when they entered Beacon?, There was no fast way to becoming a hero he realized when he had started training with Pyrrha,

The thought of her sent a wave of shame flooding Jaunes mind, He had failed her Jaune hadn't even managed to repay her for what she had done for him, The encouraging words the training she had given him even keeping his faked transcripts a secret and accepting him for it, while it was a shame Cardin overheard him and blackmailed him about it he thought,

He would have accepted it if she had thrown her out of their team's room and told the headmaster about it!.. But she didn't.

She had been in love with him she kissed him when she sent him away in the weapons locker and the worst thing about this is that he had been oblivious to it, Jaune wouldn't of imagined that Pyrrha five time champion of some tournament the one on the front of all the Pumpkin Pete Cereal boxes had been In love with him, Jaune Arc the 'Goof' the ever so clumsy bad at fighting Jaune, HIM!.

Well to be honest he had somehow mistaken her flirting for kindness and her advances for him as an attempt at being closer partners, Jaune wanted to go to his past self and thrash him around for being so stupid.

Jaune swung his sword even harder as the video of Pyrrha teaching him training techniques came to an end, The fact she was proud of him apparently showed just how nice of person Pyrrha really was to him.

'I don't deserve it' he thought to himself as more shame filled his very being,

A large gust of wind came forth from his sword as he finished up "Good but not good enough" Jaune yelled out in determination but unfortunately he was too tired to train himself any further,

So he quickly jumped into bed feeling tired and cold as the effects of adrenaline weared off. "I will get stronger, Everyone please wait for me" Jaune muttered to himself before falling into a deep sleep.


It was a rather white space with a sun, the sun was close and beautiful yet still looked to far to reach no.. it wasn't far to reach it was just too far for him to reach,

A man stood there in the dream looking at the sun as he started taking steps toward it, Jaune stood there looking at the back of the rather large man his muscles and size merely seen from the back seemed to much for any one else to have… yet he had them,

Jaune looked at the mans back trying to figure out who he was exactly, he felt familiar yet so far away something seemed to exude from the mans form and posture as he neared closer to the sun was it confidence? Arrogance.. No it was something else, something on the tip of his tongue this man was the opposite of him yet felt so similar why? He couldn't understand.

He mustered up his courage to even speak to the giant "Wh- Who are you…?" Jaune said quietly yet he somehow knew the man would hear him.

The man had turned around taking his blue eyes from the sun, "Who am I?" the words he spoke were filled with mirth, his face making a closed eye smile, his golden hair swaying with invisible wind.

"I'm me" he said the same thing that he exuded coming out his mouth as he turned around and began walking towards the sun again.

And then Jaune realized what it was, something he couldn't falsify, something so far away yet so close.. It was Pride.
