AN: I AM ALIVE! With a new FanFic as peace offering. If you are worried about JNPR-Senpai, then dont worry too much. I am currently rewriting it all since after rereading it I found a lot of inconsistency that would hamper story progress. Expect a new version of JNPR-Senpai to be release before Christmas. Enough about that, ONWARDS!
DISCLAIMER: I do not in anyway or form own Gate and RWBY. They belong to their respective owners.
GATE\Remnant: 7 Years After
"So..." Jaune began, looking up the enormous structure that had suddenly appear in the middle of downtown Vale. And it was suppose to be the anniversary too.. "What exactly am I looking at?"
"Its a Gate sir" Ciel Soleil answered unhelpfully not even looking at the marble structure instead opting to look at the reports other Hunters had handed in.
"I can see that Commander Obvious" the blond hunter replied sarcastically still eyeing the mysterious gateway. "I mean how can a this suddenly appear in the middle of Vale, on the Anniversary of the Restoration of all times."
"According to eyewitnesses its just as you say, this suddenly appeared in the in a flash."
"Like a Flash of light?"
"Nothing like that, a few moment it wasn't there and the next here it is." the Atlesian finally remove her eyes from the reports to gesture towards the Gate. Jaune scratch his head in frustration, to think such a unknown happen at such an important. It was The Fall all over again. The knight shook his head, dispersing the dark memory. "How about the civilians? How's the evacuation going?"
"All the civilian in the immediate area have been evacuated to a safe and secure position, only Hunters and soldiers remain" She look at the rest of the hunters surrounding the area, some are just lazing around bored, some just like Jaune are inspecting mysterious structures, she could barely see the retired Prof Oobleck zipping between pillars like a green blur, the poor Huntress he snag to act as his assistant barely catching up to the eccentric hunter.
"Good I don't want any nasty surprise springing up on us while we do our evacuation." Jaune sigh as he began to walk away from the Gate heading towards a lone tent in the middle of the road. "Keep me posted Ciel" the Specialist saluted in acknowledgement before turning back to the papers in her hands.
Upon entering the tent the knight did a quick search before spotting a very familiar white hair tied to an offside ponytail and walking towards her. "Weiss" Jaune called out.
"Jaune, good to see you" Weiss answered turning her head towards her old friend, a small smile in her lips.
"Last I heard you were in an SDC meeting regarding the Faunus labors with Blake?" Jaune asked curious to find his old crush in the middle of Vale rather than working on SDC as it's head and CEO.
"Last I heard of you was when you took off and gotten yourself in trouble in the Grimm lands?" She smirk at the painful expression the knight had.
"Touche" Jaune muttered with a smile, "Still doesnt answer my question thought."
"And that is?"
"Why are you here Weiss?" Jaune asked in a curious tone.
"Just like you, if I had to guess. Went to visit Ruby in Beacon and before I knew it... " She gestured to her surrounding as if to emphasize the unspoken. "Here I am. I was suppose to discuss with Ruby the security of the Festival before a giant mysterious Archway suddenly appears warranting every Hunter within the City to be called into action" She explained as she grabbed one of the papers lying on her table. "So far we know nothing of this 'Gate' some of the hunters beginning to call it."
"Well... atleast we know its made out of marble and granite." Jaune offered trying to lighten the mood, moving to the ice queen's side looking at the paper in her hands.
"Nice try Arc but you got a poor sense of humor" Weiss retorted failing to hide a small smile.
"Forgive me I'm not Yang"
"Please I don't need two of you..." she palmed her face trying to purging the image of having two Yang in existence. "Even with only one arm she still has that poor puns of hers"
"It aint Yang without her puns though." the knight reasoned he made his way to the nearest coffee machine pouring himself a cup of coffee.
"True, but would it kill her to keep it to a minimum?" Weiss ask to no one in particular only to earn a shrug from her friend.
"COMMANDER!" Ciel burst into the tent in a panic, eyes darting left and right for signs of a blond man wearing gold armor.
"What is it Ciel? You look like you seen a ghost." Jaune joked trying to placate the specialist.
"The Gate sir, there are something coming out of the gate!" Ciel said earning the attention of both Beacon alumni. "Hunters are taking positions as we speak."
"Then we need to move." Jaune ordered unsheathing his Crocea Mors from its sheath before it transformed into a shield. Exiting the tent flank by both Atlesian huntress, he made his way towards the front of the gathered Hunters all of whom has their weapons drawn.
"Dr. Oobleck!" He called out to the veteran huntsman at the forefront of the gathered men and women.
"Ah! Mr. Arc just in time to join us" the good doctor acknowledge, his eyes never leaving the gate... or the gathered women in front of the gate Jaune noted.
"And who might they be Doctor?" Jaune asked noting the elegant armor the women wore as well as the banners they raise... a Rose.
"That Mr. Arc is unknown to me and they have seem to be speaking Ancient Mistralian, sadly I may know its history I am unfamiliar on how to speak it or translate for that matter."
"Thankfully Doc, I may know a thing or two about talking in ancient Mistral." Jaune said, patting the good doctor before walking forward unsheathing his blade as he did so.
"Jaune, What are you doing?" Weiss shriek behind him trying to make sense what he was about to do.
"Making a friend" Jaune declared with a smile as he continue to walk towards the mysterious group ignoring the indignant shrills by the white haired specialist.
"I am Princess Pina Co Lada and in the name of the Empire this land shall be ours to claim" he heard the woman at the front of them all declared, the princess beauty almost took the knight's breath away... red hair that reminded him painfully of what he had lost all those years ago, ruby colored eyes that burn with a passion... and the grace deserving of a princess.
"I don't think the people here would like other claiming this lands for you princess" Jaune said gaining the attention of all the armored women, much to his discomfort.
"And who might you be? Are you one of the Knights of this distant lands?"
"I am Jaune Arc, one of Vale's Hunters as well as the Commander of all the Hunters present " he introduce bowing in red haired princess presence.
"Then tell your men to stand down or prepare to fight" Pina ordered looking at all the soldiers surround her and her men.
"I am afraid I cannot do that nor am I willing to fight you if I could avoid it." Jaune reasoned, pleading to avoid a confrontation, noting that none of them had Aura unlock fearing that it would to lead to their needless deaths he would need to convince such a thing as fighting them was useless.
"Then we have nothing to talk here. Leave now while I still have mercy on you and not struck you down where you stand." the Princess declared turning her back to Jaune as she address her warriors. Jaune could only sigh as he made his way back to the others.
"So what she says?" Dr Oobleck queered.
"They won't back down." Jaune rub his forehead trying to calm an oncoming headache. "They said that this lands would be for the Empire...whatever that means."
"It means there is a whole new world beyond that Gate!" the green haired doctor exclaimed before muttering under his breath barely audible by the rest.
"If that's what it means then we need them alive. Tell all the soldier to set their guns to Stun and notify all Hunter for non-lethal takedowns unless necessary." Jaune ordered Ciel who nodded before leaving to comply orders.
"Why such precaution?" Weiss asked this time curious to such orders, if the other side want to kill them then why go for non-lethal takedowns.
"Cause all of them have no Aura and like the Dr Oobleck said... we may need them for study if it truly is that there is a whole new world beyond the Gate." Jaune answered as he prepares himself for the fight that is to come. "Also the leader of the group is a Princess of the Empire."
"So we get a large bargain chip when we do decided to go to the other side." Weiss connected realizing the weight of a princess as a good chip when it comes to dealing with this empire.
"Let's go with that" Jaune went along with what the SDC head said not bother to comment about how she almost acted like a terrorist for a moment. "All Hunters prepare to engage!" Jaune shouted gaining all the attention of all the Hunters and soldiers alike. "Use non-lethal takedown unless necessary we need them alive"
"Yes Sir!"
"Good" he muttered as he face the princess and her men head on, seeing that the line of Cavalry had formed at the front, spears ready to pierce anything infront of them.
"FOR THE EMPIRE" the Empire soldiers shouted in unison as they began their charge, trying and failing to intimidate the huntsmen around him.
"For Vale" Jaune muttered yet his voice echoed through the men and women around him inspiring them with strength.
"FOR VALE!"
