Preview to Heart
Well a new story that I am sure surprised everyone. The reason this came about is due to one person, my friend Wolfpackersson09. Today is actually his birthday today and when I asked if he wished for something he offered a list of some of my stories to update or to start this story. With as crazy as my schedule is and already on a deadline for a different story I manage to get this all pulled together for him. Now about this story and why I started a reading version of it. Well wolf told me of the idea he was working on with his friend and co-author of this story and got me to look it up. Afterwards he mentions that he was interesting in seeing a reading/reaction story of it and I told him I would think about it. Several weeks go by and by then wolf is all but begging me to do it, so I finally agreed. So happy birthday to you, I know you have been waiting for this.
Disclaimer, I do not own RWBY or Kingdom Hearts series. In fact I do not even own the story Jaune of Hearts. That belongs to shadowlight0982 and co-writer wolfpackersson09 to which have given me permission to use their story.

It was a normal day in Vale. It was a simple Saturday morning so there were no classes. It was this reason that the teams RWBY and JNPR were out in Vale. They split up, each looking for different things. Right now the leader of team RWBY, Ruby Rose, and a team member of JNPR, Pyrrha, were in a movie rental store. Ruby had the idea of the two teams could relax and watch movies the weekend. Most actually thought this was a nice idea and were all for it so the two team members were looking through the selection of movies trying to find the right movies to have in the pile for viewing. The problem Ruby was having was she wanted to pick movies they all would enjoy but they all have different taste in movies so it was hard for the girl. "How about this?" Ruby asked holding a movie up for Pyrrha to inspect.
Pyrrha looked her way and smiles politely, "Not a bad choice though I don't think the boys would like it very much."
Ruby pouts, "What's wrong with Twilight?"
Pyrrha laughed, "The boys are not fans but maybe as a girls' night."
Ruby nodded before moving down the aisle. Pyrrha shook her head slightly before she looked between the two movies she was looking over, 'Hmm, The Stoppable Phenex or Vapula Maelstrom? Both are good and have the similar themes. Maybe both?'
Ruby looked through a pin of movies and found something that caught her eyes. Picking the case up she looked over the dark color image. It wasn't scary but rather the background was at night with a large moon behind the characters. She found it odd that the moon was shaped like a heart but she liked the feel of this with the strange castle in the background. She paused noticing something about one male character with a strange sword. "Jaune?" she asked aloud.
"Did you find something Ruby?" Pyrrha asked walking behind her.
Ruby turned towards the older girl, "Did you know that Jaune was an actor?"
"Huh?" was Pyrrha's clever responds to that question.
Ruby held the cast up toward Pyrrha and pointed to the boy in the center, "See? Isn't that Jaune?"
Pyrrha blinked before she focused at where Ruby was pointing, "That does look like him."
"I know!" Ruby cried her hands shooting up, "Why didn't he tell us?"
Pyrrha held the cast and noticed something, "hey there's also the rest of us as well. Yang, you, Weiss, Blake and me."
Ruby took the cast back and looked it over. They were in some shades of shadows but she was right. She can make out her sister, her partner, and rest of team RWBY. She noticed Pyrrha standing behind Jaune with a different sword facing the other direction. With her hair being blow by her face Ruby didn't even recognize who she was at first. Then it was the title that caught Ruby's attention, "Jaune of Heart. Okay, there is no way that Jaune cannot be actor. His name is in the title."
"So is yours," Pyrrha pointed out. (1)
"Huh?" Ruby asked confused at that statement.
Pyrrha shook her head to clear her thoughts, "Your team name is the same as your name."
Ruby blinked not really seeing that before. Then she got an idea, "Let's ask Jaune. Maybe he can explain why he never told us he was an actor."
And with that Ruby headed for the exit, nearly using her semblance. Pyrrha called out, "Wait Ruby! You still have to rent it!"
Jaune met up with Blake, and Yang on the streets of Vale. However to his displeasure Yang was doing some shopping and somehow roped him into carrying the bags. Being the polite boy his mother raised him, also offered to carry Blake's single bag as well since he already had several bags. Blake politely took the offer and Jaune found out Blake had bought a bag with several large and heavy books. Still he never complained aloud even if he was regretting being roped into being Yang's pack mule. Yang laughed as she pointed out another store, "Oh a sale! We have to check this out. Onward pack mule!"
Jaune groaned now, "Must you call me that?"
He started to follow the two before he felt a sudden weight on his back that nearly made him stumble but manage to barely keep his balance and not drop any of the bags. The small amount of rose petals falling around him told him it was Ruby using her semblance to jump onto him. He did not have time to respond before she hooked two fingers around the sides of his mouth and pulled, stretching his mouth out. He tried to keep balance as Ruby pulled back slightly. "Why didn't you tell us you were an actor?"
"Ah Wab?" Jaune asked tried to speak with his mouth stretched.
Yang and Blake turned at his commotion and blinked at Ruby's question. "What's this about Jaune being an actor?" Blake asked.
Yang grinned, "He's working on being an actor. He always acts like a smooth playboy but needs a bit more work before we can believe him."
Jaune groaned at that before Pyrrha ran up to them, "Ruby, please wait next time."
"But we have to know why he was hiding this from us?" Ruby exclaimed childishly as she released her hold on his mouth.
"Hide what?" Jaune asked finally about to speak clearly.
Ruby jumped off his back and held out the DVD out for him to see, "Why didn't you tell us you were an actor?"
Jaune blinked as he stared at the DVD. Yang and Blake peeked behind him to see what Ruby was talking about. Jaune finally said after a minute, "I'm in a movie?"
"Jaune of Heart?" Blake said reading the title and found it odd. "Interesting choice of title name."
"I know right?" Yang added with a grin, "It seems Jaune really can win the 'Hearts' of the ladies."
Blake gave her a blank look for the pun. Jaune rubbed his head though, "Still I never seen this before. I never even consider becoming an actor though."
"But, but," Ruby stammered "But then how are you here in this movie? Your name is on the cover, the very title."
"So is yours," Yang said as well getting a look from Pyrrha.
Jaune looked at the cover before he flipped the DVD to the back and read aloud, "'I've been having these weird thoughts lately... Like, is any of this real or not?' Jaune Arc always wanted to be a hero like his father and grandfather before him. However, fate has something especially planned for him. Multiple worlds, saving his friends, fighting powerful monsters. And it all began with a simple key." He frowned, "it sounds like they are talking about me. It has my name, talks of wanting to be a hero like my dad and gramps, it seems almost…"
"Surreal?" Pyrrha finished.
Jaune nodded "yeah,"
The others stared not sure what to make of that. Finally Blake said, "What should we do?"
Ruby beamed "Watch it of course! We already rented it so why not see if this is real for ourselves?"
Pyrrha nodded "Make sense. Plus we can bring our teammates to watch with us."
Yang grinned, "Alright, let's get to the 'Heart' of the matter!"
All she saw was the blank looked they gave her.
"Movie night!" Nora's cry could be heard throughout half of Beacon. Said girl was dancing around one of the lobbies in the dorms for students to relax. Her rapid movements made it so she looked like she was teleporting in different parts of the lobby in different poses as she sang out, "Movie night! Move-move-movie night! We are going to have a movie night!"
"Can you please stop?" Weiss said trying to keep herself from shouting at the hyper girl. She went back to placing several bowls of snacks with Ren helping, "They better not have picked any dumb movies."
"I'm sure they will have a small selection for us to choose from," Ren reassure her. "And if we cannot agree to a movie we can watch a recording or on demand. I'm actually leaning towards that option as I am looking forward to the next episode of Poison Blood. If rumors are to be believed one of the other characters will have a connection to an unexpected villain."
"I want a movie about ponies!" Nora exclaimed as she appeared by Ren, "Ponies are awesome! Maybe we can have a movie with pancakes."
Weiss huffed, "No one is dumb enough to make a movies simply about pancakes."
"We're back!" Rose cried as she zoomed into the room. The others walked in simply with Jaune picking up the rear having just returned the bags into team RBWY's room. "And we found something amazing!"
"It better not be dumb," Weiss muttered.
Pyrrha smiled as she held up the DVD, "We found this and thought it might be a good idea to show you guys."
The last members of the teams looked at the cover before Nora cheered, "Yeah! I know movie stars!"
"But we're not movie stars," Jaune pointed out.
Nora ignored him as she giggled and danced around them before she held the DVD out for Pyrrha, "Can I have an autograph for your fan?"
Ren shook his head amused before he took the DVD to see, "this is very interesting but very strange. Where did you find it?"
"In the movie store," Ruby said, "it was just on the self like any other movie. After we rented it we showed it to Jaune and he never seen it before."
"Not to mention it shows not only him but us as well," Weiss added with a frowned, "How can they just take my face and place in it a movie without my discretion. This cannot be covered under some sort of copyright!? Who made the movie anyways?"
Ren flipped it over and checked the back, "Shadowlight Pictures, partnered with Wolfpackersson's Productions. I never heard of these."
"Who cares?!" Yang cried, "We are holding in our hands something that is pure awesome! There is only one thing to do!"
Nora cheered, "Movie Night!"
"Movie night," Yang confirmed.
Ren nodded, "This is something I think we cannot ignore. Ruby found it by chance but I have a feeling we are meant to find it."
Weiss sighed, "Well hopefully it will be some we can all at least watch without clawing our eyes out."
Ruby was already placing the DVD in as the others started to sit down as the movie started to go. Yang could not help but grin, "Hey Jaune, let's see you as the 'Heart' of this movie." All she got for her efforts was bits of popcorn thrown at her.
And there is the start for our story. I will get to the actual reading something in a week or two. I do hope I got the characters down enough to enjoy. And I hope you all enjoy the few little Easter eggs I added in. such as the one little note 1; a little breaking of the fourth wall I could not help but put in.
